bIe-Many Trophies of Chase Presented to Former
President Shown at Sycamore Hill.
BY IDAH MIG. GIBSON
written for the Newark Evening star,


My first thought when | started to write this
article was that you would like TO know how
Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt looks.
Well, | must say that she is hard to
describe. She is slender, but graceful of figure.
and her naturally curly dark hair tufts all
about the oval face, which is rather pale, with
a skin so delicate that it seems lighted from
within when she smiles.
Her eyes are blue, and her mouth most SEN
sitive; II reveals her every thought almost be-
fore she speaks.
Mrs. Roosevelt is not one of those women
who take themselves too seriously. She smiles
often and has a great sense of humor; indeed,
one of her fads is collecting nonsense rhymes,
and she laughs heartily over many that have
the colon ell as their subject.
The Progressive candidates wife is noted for
her splendid executive ability. The dispatches
have told you how she brought order in the
colonel's room at Mercy Hospital and how she
soon esta blished her own absolute rule where

1000 MEN LAID DOWN TOOLS.
Because of Breakage at Power Plant
Which Deprived Stonesheds of Power

Owing to a breakdown which occurred
at the Consolidated Lighting Co.'S steam
an>ii&ry plant in Montpelier THIS fore
noon, business operations i'll a large
number OF stonesheds were paralNiei fuI
the dav. In fact, all Of the concerns
depending upon the Consolidated com
pany alone for power We're obliged to
suspend this morning shortly after
o'clock. The power company reported
that an accident had happened to
one Of the pumps in use at the AIontpe-
lier station and that it would be noon
before the break could be repaired La
ter it was learned that the repairs
would take longer than was at first APP
pretended. Consequently the sheds will
probably remain closed until tomorrow
morning.
Plants affected by the accident are
located at the south end, in Burnham's
meadow. Depot square, and at the north
end of the city In all. it is estimated
that nearly 1000 men were compelled to
lay down their tools for the day When
the water is too low for the Consoli-
dated company to generate its power en-
tirely from that source, the auxiliary
steam plant at Montpelier is used. Just
now, and, in fact, throughout a greater
portion of the year, the Montpelier sta
ton is pressed into service on account
of the shortage OF power.

BACK TO THE FARM.
Figures from a Barre Real Estate Of
fee Show Such Trend.

In opposition to the general impress.
sion that present-day tendencies lean
away from the farm rather than back TO
the soil OF our ancestors, local real
estate company produces figures and
facts which 90 to controvert this popu-
| lar belief and show beyond a doubt that
there Is. in reality, a trend toward the
farm. The D. A. Perry Real Estate com
pany, one of the largest firms in Ner-
mont, makes speciality of handling
farm propositions and figures given out
at the companys local office this morn
ing prove conclusvely that at least fif-
teen persons from several states. in
Guiding Vermont, have recently been dis
posed TO show their faith in Vermont
farms by investing money in agricul-
tural lands and occupying their purehas-
Is as early as possible after the trans
actions are completed
The sum of S70,000a little more than
that, in fact--spent on farms in the i'm
mediate vicinity of Barre since August
is pretty convincing evidence that not
everyone is contemplating city resi-
denee. Farm sales at the Perry COM
pany's agency from January ! would
total nearly 100000, but the purchases
made since August indicate clearly
enough that thinking people still have
good deal OF faith in the producing
possibilities of Vermont soil. 1t may
be said by way of explanation that
small portion of the $4,000 spent on
farms in this section went for personal
property. The largest farm sale in
volved $4,000 and the smallest parcel
went for 81 500 Two were over $4,000,
four over $4,000, three over $4,000 and
all but three were over $4,000.
