A 400 pound bear, whose stomach was
found to contain an exposed kodak film,
is said to be the result of a hunting ex-
pedftion of last week when Pearl Newton
of Chittenden brought down the big fellow
with his gun. 1t is believed the ami
NAL is the one that has terrorized live
stock in the vicinity of Chittende for
several weeks. A peculiar discov cry, it
is reported, was made when the bear was
cut open. In its stomach was found an
exposed kodak film. 1t is thought tn a. t
Bruin, while ransacking some picnicker 8
lunch box, ate the film.

CONDITION
OF TRADE
IN VERMONT

Reports to l}radstreets for the week
show but little change in the general
condition of trade in the state. With
lumbermen tho work of saving the past
winters cut is being pushed forward as
rapidly as possible in order to take ad.
vantage of the supply of water in the
streams. Lumber dealers report a good
demand for building material and the
market prices holding up well. Furni-
ture manufactures are fairly busy al
though the amount of new business
ahead is not as large as is usual. One
chair manufacturing plant, chairs for ex-
port, closed its plant the past week.
The demand for domestic markets is
fairly even. With the paper manufac-
lures the reports show new business is
not coming in as rapidly as it did a
month ago although the plants in this
line are operating full time. Consid-
cradle activity and new field for labor
ers has been created with the work of
building the large dam in Wipdham
County. The immediate effect of this
work Oh retail trade is apparent in the
towns adjoining. Late crops of all
kinds is the substance of information
received from the farming sections and
some farmers are still planting. Two
failures were reported for the week
while the wholesalers note collections
are coming in slowly.
At Burlington the number OF unem-
ployed has been increased this past week
by reason of the closing of one OF the
large manufacturing plants. Retail
merchants note trade has been reasonably
good, the clearance sales having been
we'll attended. Rutland manufacturing
interests report that labor is we'll en-
ployed and the tone of tie retail trade
has improved. At st. Albans the gen.
eral condition OF the manufacturing in-
terests remains as usual while reports
from agricultural districts are similar
to those from other sections, a backward
season and late crops. st. Johnsbury
manufacturing interests note but little
change while the retail merchant is hav-
ing a little better trade with more
seasonable weather. Barre and Mont
pelier granite interests are only fairly
we'll employed as a whole. Building
operations in those places are fairly
active with general trade attended by
clearance sales. The paper mills at
Bellows Falls are operating full tue as
are other manufacturing interests.
Warmer weather has helped retail trade
Bennington mills are now nearly all of
them, operating full time and outlook
for new business is improving. At
Brattleboro labor of all kinds is in de-
mand and new business is coming in
we'll An improvement in retail trade
is noticed. l1ardwick reports there is
a gain in the amount of new business at
the granite manufacturing plants which
has increased the number of employed.
More favorable reports are also received
from the retail merchants of that place.

Clarence-Jacques, the little son of Mr..
and Mrs. Joseph Jacques, of Waterbury,
was drowned last week while fishing
with some other children on a rock in

the rock.
The children ran and summoned help
but the boy was dead when taken out,

Deputy Collector e. NJ Bailey, of the
United States Customs at Newport, has
been looking for smugglers of late and
as the result of his activity in this di-
rection secured about $500 pounds of
maple sugar, upon which the duties had
not been paid. This sugar was sold by
Canadian producers to United States
farmers living near the border, and sold
by them as their own produ ction.

Some Jealous Doctors Want
An Investigation
columbus Journal)

tCOluuDuS JOuTudlD
DR.. Yeatman Wardlow, president of
the Academy of Medicine, stated yes
terday that he would select commit.
tee from the academy to investigate
the state sanatorium for tuberculosis
near Mt. Vernon. The complaint
against the institution, as voiced at q
meeting of the academy, Is that 1t Is
not living up to its possibilities as an
educational institution, nor achieving
results commensurate with the money
the state is expending.
Several medical men protested
against young man not one year out
of college being at the head of the
bacteriology work there. He Is get
ting $1,S00, while the law permits an
expenditure of $4,000.
Local medical men say that while
he may be worth all he gets and more,
his youth and inexperience prevent
his work having the weight that would
attach to the same results obtained by
man of recognized scientific attain
| ment
Personally know nothing of the
situation" said DR.. Wardlow, beyond
what was said in debate before the
academy. 1t is the sense of the local
medical profession, however, that II
these charges are true they should be
made public and If they are not the
men and the institution both are en-
titled to a vindication.

that Woodrow Wilson was the sue
