Recently Miss Julia Massey has
had installed at the Robinhood Inn
new fire protection system which
is considerably in advance of any,
thing in this part of the bay before.
A thousand gallon tank has been set
up upon tower. which when con-
nected up, is arranged so that the
full pressure of the extensive pump
ing system in use at the hotel will
be turned into the main pipe line.
BY this means a lage stream of con-
siderable force is capable of being
thrown upon any part of the Inn or
or the adjoining cottages, which would
be more than sufficient to check any
blaze which might occur before IL
had progressed far enough to do
much damage. 1t has often been a
comment Of tourists, who make Wis
Its to this bay that there is a lack Of
proper fire protection which might
easily prove disastrous and this step
which has been taken here is certain
ly one made in the right direction.
IL is to be hoped that others among
the many fine summer hotels and
here may follow
Miss Massey's example and add
what is practically the oily thing nec-
ssary to complete the advantages
they offer.

E1a t,sass-
ured out for any act must be partly
determined from its natural conse
quences. This act therefore, it might
be argued, is not one to be punished
as rape or murder is. But a sentence
to mere Imprisonment seems to me
very inadequate one. If every such
offender were also smartly whipped, I
believe there would soon be fewer OF
them.
If we were to accept the sentiment
trial or humanitarian position that the
right to punish rests on the duty to
educate the ignorant and reform the
vicious, l should none the less insist
that whipping was, for many cases,
the best incentive to education and
reform. He who has learned to re-
frain is half reformed. A whipping
has a very direct tendency to teach
a man to refrain from whatever is
likely to entail another punishment
of the same sort. 1t may be the sal
walton of a boy, who would otherwise
be sent to a reform school that does
not reform, or to Jail that he would
find school Of crime. 1t may also
be the salvation of man. When in
use in Connecticut, no white man was
ever whipped twice. He had learned
his lesson.

act has been done from a criminal mo-

Manager Heban Announces "The Red
Rose" For Next Wednesday.

Manager Hoban of the opera house
announces the coming on Wednesday,
Aug. %, of John G. Fishers big musical
comedy from the Globe theatre, New
York, "The Red Rose" with Zoe Barnett
in the leading role.
'The Red Rose" is the joint work of
Harry B. and Robert B. Smith, with
music by Robert Hood Bowers, and
staged by r. II. Burnside, former stage
director of the New York Hippodrome.
The company numbers some 65 people,
headed by Zoe Barnett and including
many names we'll and fayorably known
in comic opera circles.
From scenic and costume point of
view, "The Red Rose" is said to be u
sensation. The story is: A young
American, studying art, falls in love
with a model, Lola. His wealthy father
objects TO the marriage. Stormy scenes
follow, but in the end, Dick Lorimer, the
young American, obtains soc pictures
taken by moving picture synd icate,
showing the antics of his father with a
young art student. This, coupled with
the discovery that Lola is really bar.
on's daughter, enables young Lorimer
to overcome his fathers objections.
There are "a musical numbers in the
score, the most popular being "Come
FAIR "Men, Men, Men, and "The stu.
dents Glide" the latter having created
somewhat of furosc curing its lonst

his discovery was now an assured fact
! Bennett came to the door and delivered
himself into the officers custody.
Bennett and York made clean
breast of the whole affair and the for
mer's story given in brief as follows,
tailed remarkably with some of the de-
| auctions which the officer had made prior
to their approximations: On the after
noon of Bennington Battle day, Ben
nett went to the Arkley stables and en-
gagged horse of the proprietor, saying
he wished to go to East Montpelier. He
paid Mr.. Arkley in advance with check
and promised to return before morning.
From the stable he went straight to
Montpelier, where he was joined by
York. They passed the night in East
Montpelier, intending to 60 to Barton
fair in the morning. Come morning.
they decided to make for Danville. In
Danville they effected an exchange of
wagons with man named Blake and
got boot money of Sl2. Afterwards
they went on through Lyndon and St.
Johnsbury, to East Coventry, where
they learned for the first time that
young Benefits father was on their
trail.
At farmhouse near East Coventry
village, they stopped and purchased din
ner. The meal finished, they took UP
the journey and were hardly out of
the yard when the housewife shouted
that someone was calling for Bennett
at the telephone. 1t was Benefits ia
Their and the two alleged thieves lost
little time in allowing the farmhouse
to sink out of sight. Alarmed at learn
ing of the pursuit, the youths set out
for place called Pine Woods not far
from Newport village. Afterwards they
went up the mountain near Newport
Center and stopped at the house of
farmer named Lambert. Here they
snapped the horse for ap monograph and
hired out to Lambert to assist in finish
ing his haying. They had worked two
days when Thursday afternoon came
and York averred he would go over
the line and procure some whiskey. TO
this Bennett assented, but preferring
to remain at the Lambert farm. he per.
suaded another farmland named Goneo
to accompany York. 1t was while York
and his companion were returning from
Houses Hill to get whiskey, that they
were confronted by the pursuing sheriff
and the liveryman.
The horse said to have been stolen is
valued at Sl25. The original vehicle
which formed part of the theft was
a light Concord wagon with red run
ming gear. According to the story, Ben
nett engaged the horse of Mr.. Arkley,
but it was York who did all the dick
ing that resulted in the transfer of
wagons, the boot money and grapa-
phone transaction. York is twenty one |
years old and Bennett gave his age as
twenty. Both are youthful in appear

Canada's protest against the PROPOSED
freeing of American coastwise vessels
from tolls in the Panama canal is the
natural sequence to the earlier protest
of Great Britain, the mother country;
but Canada has considerable ground for
dissatisfaction, especially if the shipping
interests Of that country are to increase
as expected. Other countries, whose
treaties with the United States are not
so specific as the Hay -Pauncefote treaty
between the United States and Great
Britain, doubtless feel much as Great
Britain does, but are not in position to
enter so powerful a protest.
