DEGREE FOR ROOSEVELT.

Buenos Ayres, Nov. II. The Univer-
sity has conferred the honorary degree
of doctor of laws on Colonel Roosevelt.
In the address at the ceremony the for
mer foreign minister, Estanislao Zebal-
los, eulogized the ex-President of the
United States and his policy towards
Panama. The speaker gave it as his
opinion that the United States must
dominate in the Caribbean sea, other
wise the republics in that section would
invite European intervention.
Senior Zeballos declared that the HON
age done by Argentina to Canning was
uncalled for and suggested that the
name of Canning, given to a street ir
Buenos Ayres, should be changed tC
that of Monroe, who saved the indie
pendence of all America. He declared
that nowadays the Argentine republic
did not accept protection of the Monroe
doctrine, but it did accept the Pan
Americanism. This did not mean hos
tility to Europe, however, as that cont
nent supplied both immigrant anC
capital to the country.
Colonel Roosevelt in his reply recog
nized that Argentina did not need tn,
protection of the Monroe doctrine.
1--WE should have regard for Europe, ,
said the x-President, but above all W,
should be citizens of our own countries
| will always denounce revolutions il
countries where the people are unable
, to govern themselves.

Run Over by His Own RIG.

Samuel Newburg of this city was
thrown from his wagon about IL O'Clock
Sunday morning and run over by the
wheels, breaking both bones in one leg
about two and half inches above the
ankle.
He was driving toward the city with
load of rags and when near the Pioneer
was met by Deputy Sheriff Robert Nor
rison of Barre in his automobile. The
machine frightened the horse which
jumped and threw Newburg to the
ground, after which the wagon wheels
passed over his leg fracturing both
bones.
Deputy Morrison carried him tC
Heaton hospital in his automobile
where the fracture was reduced. Il
will probably be some time, however
before he will be able to be abou

ROOSEVELT CALLED GREAT
PACIFICATOR.

Buenos Ayres, Nov. 13 Enthusiastic
friendship was shown toward the
United States at the banquet given
here last night in honor of Col. Theo-
dore Roosevelt, and the distinguished
visitor himself was warmly welcomed.
The national hymns of the United
States and of the Argentine Republic
We're sung and hundreds of women in
the galleries threw flowers down upon
the floor of the banquet hall in the APP
plause which followed Col. Roosevelt S
speech.
NJ. Frers, a member of the House of
Deputies, in a speech of welcome, re-
ferre1 to the visitor as 1.-The defender of
the integrity of the Americas" and
after paying him the libute of having
entirely dispelled any feeling of sus-
picion that may have lurked in Latin
American countries of the friendly adj
vances of tie United States, he said:
1--WE will be justified in calling him
the great paciicator
In his reply Col Roosevelt defined the
Monroe doctrine, explaining that it was
not an international law, but a policy
of the United States for all America
He said times had changed since the
adoption of that policy so that the
Argentine was now a great moderr
nation which needed no protection, anc
he added:
81 hope that the example of the Ar
gentine will be emulated by all the
other Latin American republics anC
that thy will all accept the Monroe
doctrine as the lie ading article of theil
policy.
The ex-President entered into ex
plantations of the actions of the United
States in Panama and Santo Domingo
and his audience manifested its ap
proval.

Auto Hits Wagon

Theodore Seibert had a narrow es-
cape from serious injury on Thursday
when the wagon he was driving was
struck by an automobile going at high
rate of speed along Main street. Sci
bert, driving for M. T. Butterfield, was
just emerging from Franklin street into
Main in front of the high school build
ing when an automobile driven by C.
L. Lane of Cornwall came suddenly
upon him.
Mr.. Lane applied the brakes but the
distance was too short to avoid a
collision. Seibert was thrown down
the embankment, but escaped serious
injury, only suffering few Commissions
of the body. The wagon was demol-
ished and the contents spread about
the street. The front of the machine
was slightly damaged Mr.. Lane took
the blame upon himself and later, be-
fore Mr.. Butterfield, acquitted Seibert
of any negligence.

Nearly Killed il Auto Acc de n I.

For many days the life of Lawrence
Tinkham of Quechee, we'll known alum
nus of Goddard seminary, has hung IN
the balance at the Massachusetts Cen
eral hospital following an automobile
accident. Conclusion of the brain was
feared and the best available attendance
was su nmoned. A piece of bone with
dimensions as large as fifty-cent piece
was found pressing against the brain.
In removing this bone six hours We're
consumed by the medical men.
Cuts and bruises were numerous about
Tinkham's body. One cut extended from
the top of his head down past his eyes.
Seven stitches were required to mend
one wound in his forehead. While he is
not yet wholly free from danger, the
odds are much in his favor. Immediately
after the accident his parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Scott Tinkham of Quechee were
summoned to Boston. They are still at
his bedside.
Mr.. Tinkham was in company with g
relative. Blanchard Shriner, of Boston,
motoring along prominent boulevard
when the machine became uncontrol-
able. The course of the machine, which
was travelling at fair speed was directed
towards telephone pole. All Other
members of the party excepting Mr.
Tinkham escaped injuries. - Barre
