They are a shelter from winters icy

furnish fuel for the fireside and lumber
and furniture for the dwelling that shell
tiers our loved ones. They regulate the
water supply and influence the rainfall,
the air and the soil. They are play

old age. Inspired by a common purpose
and responding with determination and
will. we may soon restore to these hills

came to Rutland when l3 years old
and went to Cheney Hill" about four
miles north of Rutland to live. With
the exception OF one year spent in Ohio,
when he was young man, he has al
ways lived in this city or vicinity. He
is the last of his family and has no
children. Mr.. Patterson has been a
widower for over 20 years. For many
wears he has made his home with Mr..
and Mrs. A. J.. Davis, who are distant
relatives.
Mr.. Patterson is probably the oldest
living member of the Rutland Congre-
gational church, having joined it in

NIGHT STICKS WENT
STRAIGHT THROUGH GHOST
Two Policemen, Teamster and Horses
Saw 1t Disappear Into Pavement

New York, April Nightsticks are
practically worthless as means OF ar

morning policeman Cy Terwiliger hurled
his club right through the middle OF a
ghost that sligthered along his beat, but
the spook laughed derisively and escaped
through the asphalt paving OF Morning

Early last Friday morning policeman
Cy was on post at Mornngside avenue
and One Hundred and Nineteenth street,
guarding a canyon OF tall apartment
houses. A few minutes after o'clock,
Cy saw a dim shape emerge from the
basement Of an apartment house. glide
noiselessly to the middle OF Morniugside
avenue and sink into the street.
CIV was scared. When the sergeant
came along with the relieving squad. he
told his story They went on to Police

Potter and a tesmster were in loud
agreement that visions were about in
the night They disputed for the priv.

FEAR PALACE AT FEE
HAS BEEN ST0RMED
Absence of Dispatches Causes Grave Con-
Germ Over Situation of
Europeans.

Paris, April %. The total absence of
dispatches from Fee. where the Moroccan
troops have mutinied against increased
intervention led to the belief yesterday
that the uprising has assumed serious
proportions. and that the French troops
may be in danger of losing control OF the
situation.
: The last dispatches, which were mea-
ger reported 500 rebels killed in des
pcrate street conflict, and the imprison-
mcnt of 1000 more.
All of the Europeans were concentrat-
ed in the sultans palace, where French
troops, aided by re-enforcements from
The barracks at West Mekinez, We're
on guard.
The absence of news led to the belief
that the rebels may have stormed the
palace. The Patrie declares that the
government has stopped all press dis
patches, and the government declares
that all but one of the five government
operators at Fee have been killed, and
that the survivor cannot handle dis
patches.
