Ira G. Want was in from the
Want ranch the first of the week.
Off for California

A. Fl. Huston and wife and Hon.
F. o. Williams, who have been
here for the past two or three
months from Santa Monica, Oalif.,
came down from their ranches on
Cow and Calf, creeks Monday
and left Tuesday morning for
their California homes. Mr..
Williams has lived in Santa Mon
lea for the past six or eight
years and while he and his
partner, Heniy r. Jones have in
tefets in that place, they still re-
tain their large ranch property on
Calf creek and make periodical
visits to this country. Mr.. and
Mrs. Huston have been living in
Santa Monica for the past two or
three years, but since their return
here last summer MI. Huston has
disposed of all his holdings on
Cow creek and his visits here are
likely to be few and far between
These two men represent the very
first settlers in Wyoming. They
r both of them very interesting,
loyal, upright men whom we regret
to see leave the valley, tho we are
only too willing to acknowledge
that they have we'll earned the
vacation and rest they now seek

Caught Fine Trout

G. @. Hickok, the manager Of
the Saratoga Grocery Company,
i'll company with Charles Plum
mer, went out to the lake three
miles north of town to do some
fishing. There are an abundance
of trout in the lake, planted there
years ago, and they have grown
to be very large-some of them
too large to take a fly. Mr.. Plum
mer was fortunate in securing a
very fine specimen of Salmon
brook trout, weighing 81 pounds.
The fish is most beautifully mark
ed and Is certainly one of the
finest looking trout that has ever
been taken out of any of the
water here in the valley. 1t was
on exhibition in the window of
the Saratoga Grocery Company
and attracted a great deal of at
tention as well as admiration.
The party saw several more trout,
some of which were much larger
they think than the one Mr..
Plummer landed

Albert Reed, the Engineer at the
light plant, had an odd experience
Monday night. The pump which
supplies the boiler from the ditch be-
came clogged and as he was unable
to clear it he crlled for Mr.. Winsor.
On opening the pump they found ID
frogs in it that had been drawn in
thru the pipe from the ditch. The
hot water had boiled them quite ten
der and Mr.. Reed had a "turn"
when he pulled off the first leg he
came TO. Some one had removed the
screen from the mouth of the pipe
and the frogs had easy access to its
interior.

ROXBURY HOTEL
DESTROYED TO-DAY
Occupants of Structure Had Escaped by
Climbing Down From Convenient
Trees.

Roxbury, Dec. 1.-THE hotel building
barn and outbuildngs \ re destroyed by
fire early this morning. causing u loss
estimated at 5000 or $4,000. The oe'
cupants of the hotel got out of the build
ing with some difficulty. The hotel was
owned and occupied by +. w. Barber
who came TO Roxbury from Buffalo, \,
", recently.
When employees of the hotel arose this
morning to start breakfast they heard
a cracking noise in the rear of the hotel
and on investigation discovered the
building to be on fire. They gave the
alarm and although bucket brigades did
valiant work they were unable TO save
any of the hotel building. 1t is said
that the fire started around some oil
which was stored on rear veranda.
The hotel was a two-story structure
OF fifteen rooms, and every room was oc-
cupied When the inmates We're aroused,
il was too late to escape by the stairs,
so the people imprisoned climbed down
some convenient trees and were not
harmed. Little of the contents of the
hotel was saved, but the horses and
wagons were taken out of the barn.
The hotel was built twenty years
ago by A. Mansfield.

Waterbury To-day
ON CENTRAL VT. TRACK
Young Man Resided on Farm Not Fai

His Home at Once.

Waterbury. Dec. ll.-At the seventh

tion, Clitus Johnson was struck and in
stantly killed by a north-bound passen-
ger train this forenoon. the place OF the
accident being not far from Mr.. John

dlesex.
Mr.. johnson was alone at the time
and was driving TO this village, it is
understood. There We're various reports
concerning the cause of the accident,
one of which was that the engine whistle
was not blown before the crossing and
another that Mr.. Johnson's horse
stopped, leaving the wagon directly on
the track. None OF these rumors is veri-
fed. The horse was not injured, but
the wagon was smashed to pieces.
The injuries of Mr.. johnson were such
that it is thought he was killed in
stantly, one leg being broken and there
being injuries about the head. The re-
mains were taken TO the young mans
home, not far away. The funeral ar
have not been completed.
Mr.. johnson resided on farm to-
gether with his parents, Edwin and
Clara lMarshall) johnson, and his broth
er. Emerson johnson. Besides these rel
atives he leaves his wife, who was
Phoeba Holmes, to whom he was mar
ried about eight years ago. The lat
ter's mother and three brothers reside
in Montpelier.

POPULAR YOUNG MAN DEAD.
Lester S. carswell, Prominent Local Ath'
lete, Died Suddenly To-day.

Lester s. Carswell, the youngest sol
OF Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel Carswell of q
Ayers street and one OF the best knowI
Young men in Barre. died suddenly al
the City hospital this forenoon at ll;3'
o'clock, following an illness of only d
few hours. Death was due 10 a rupture
of the intestine. Mr.. carswell was
taken suddenly i'll while eating supper
at the Congregational church last evea'
| ing around o O'Clock. and IL was with
difficulty that he was able to reach the
office OF DIR, w. ID. Reid on South Main
street. In spite of medical ministra-
tions, his condition grew steadily worse
and this forenoon il was decided TO re-
move him to the hospital, where an
operation could be performed il neces-
sary. The young man suffered intense
" throughout the night and during the
forenoon, although he retained conscious
ness until a few moments before his
death.
The deceased was born in Barre July
10, 1891, and had made his home here
always. Besides his parents, he leaves

William Carswell of New York, and
James b. Carswell. who is employed by
the Vermont Marble Co. in Proctor. He

local competitions of different sports
As member of the Granite City Hose
running team, he added TO
his feats and it was oftentimes through !
his superior running that the company |
was able to win in hose contests with |
outside teams. Among his associates in I
he company, he was more than ordi- !
larily popular, and as he was rs
.eemed by fellow athletes so also did +
his rare faculty for making friends ex !
end to other circles. He was trusted
,mploye at the plant of the Martinson
Estate company, and his loss there as
Elsewhere will be keenly felt. His un
imely end removes Young man OF
