SPIDERS OF THE ARGENTINE
Their Dew-Laden Webs Compelled tho
Authorities to Put Telegraph
Wires Undor Ground.

Spiders once caused the Argentine
republic not little trouble. Not that
they were In any way dangerous or
destructive in themselves. The griev.
ance was simply that they would spin
webs.
Anyone who has gone across the
fields on an autumn morning before
the sun has dried the grass will re.
member how the dew sparkled on the
HpidCrs' webs stretched across the
grass and the bushes. II was Just
this dew on the webs that caused the
trouble I'm the Argentine republic.
There the web spinning spiders are
so plentiful that they have. on one oc.
cation at least, completely demoraL
lied the telegraph service. They
would spin their webs across tho tele.
graph lines, and az soon as dew fell or
shower came up every microscopic
thread with which the wires abound.
cd became wet and established a
minute leak. The effect OF millions Of
these leaks was practically to stop
the operation OF the lines.
The government telegraph depart.
ment, especially In Buenos Ayres. was
put to much Inconvenience. A number
OF expedlents were tried. but to no
purpose. until at last on one line az a
last resort II was decided to connect
Buenos Ayres and Rosario by an un.
derground cable about two hundred
and nifty miles long. On this impor.
tant line some years ago the effect OF
the webs was to cut down the speed OF
working from three or four hundred
messages an hour to thirty.

HONOR FOR eRATTLEeoRo GIRL.
Miss Faith Tyler Attained Highest Mark
Ever Reached In Sargent School-WlIl
Assist There as Teacher.

An unusual honor has come to a Brat
tleboro girl, Miss Faith Tyler daughter
of Mrs. George w. Tyler of Tyler street
Under the headline, school Record by
Sargent Graduate" 1t was thus stated
in the Boston Globe of June 2:
"Fifty-one young women, one of whom
received the highest honors ever award
ed in the school, graduated from the DIR.
Dudley A. Sargent school for physical
education, on Everett street. Cambridge,
yesterday afternoon. The school hall was
crowded with relatives and friends of the
young women graduates.
'In awarding the honors to students
who had shown the most proficiency for
the past three years work, Dr. Sargent
pointed to the exceptional record of Miss
Faith Tyler, who attained the highest
honors of any pupil who ever graduated
from the school,"
The Sargent school is an institution of
30 years standing and its graduates are
doing an important work. or the 81
graduates this year only six received
honors. That Miss Tyler has attained
the highest honors in its history not
only reflects great credit upon her, but
also is a source of qualification to her
many friends. She will come to Brat
tleboro about July 1 to remain through
part of the summer, but she intends to
return in the fall to take a special course
III lltulCdl KY HHdSllCS at lne AnluTen
hospital and to assist in the clinics there,
and also to assist at the Sargent school
in teaching physiology and chemistry.
Miss Tyler's father the late George W.
Tyler, was lieutenant commander in the
United States navy and her great grand
father, Royal Tyler, was chief justice of
the Vermont supreme court, a graduate
of Harvard and author of THE Con-
trast' the first American play ever
staged She attended Miss Sawyer's
private school here and later took a
course in kindergarten instruction in Mrs
Benjamin Pickman Mann's school in
Washington and graduated from the Spen-
ceran business college in Washington.
She was in the census Office three years,
having a position in the division of
manufactures during the census of 1900,
and for the next few years i'll health
prevented her from taking up active du-
ties She went to Cambridge about four
years ago.

gray clothing in place of the brown and

says stripes have no deterrent effect on a
prisoner who wishes to escape and as
soon as he is out he gets new clothes, so
distinctive prison garb does not assist
in his capture.

Railway THROUGH Asbestos Fields.

The opening Monday of the oxford
Mountain railway, road about so miles
long running from North Troy to Wind
sor Mills, p. O., is expected to result
eventually in the development of a field
of asbestos mines along the Missisquoi
valley in the northern part of Vermont.
The new Oxford Mountain railway con-
meets the Canadian Pacific line at North
Troy with both the Grand Trunk line
and the Canadian Pacific railway at
Windsor Mills. The new road will also
connect with the projected Missisquoi
Valley railroad, which, when completed,
will be snort line furnishing a con-
Meeting link between Montreal and
other Canadian cities and Boston. The
asbestos mines in that vicinity, which
are of the same drift as the Canadian
asbestos mines. have not been worked
profitably heretofore, owing to their
great distance from railway line.
