took place, man was presumably
knocked senseless with a brick hurried
by another. "Pasha" was sent out on
the trail. Taking up the scent from
the brick which he discovered, the
dog got the trail and soon caught the
fugitive.
The nine-foot fence which the dog
leaped on the trail was the highest
obstacle placed in the way of the
dogs. and "Pasha" alone succeeded
in clearing it. Considering that fully
ten thousand people were present at
the exhibition and that they crossed
and re-crossed the field over which

The railroad situation has not materially
improved. No passenger trains are run

Though a light train ran over the line last
night more for the benefit OF railroad Off
cials than for any other reason. Efforts
are being made today to raise the big loco
motive above East Putney, and if by any
stroke of good fortune this job should be
completed today or tonight it Is possible
that trains will be operated over the line
tomorrow. This IS the understanding Of
railroad men at the local station today.
Central Vermont trains are being run
south from Brattleboro, as they have been
for several days, and are making such
connections as are possible at South Yer
non with Boston & Maine trains The car
of beef which has been due from the north
for some days is expected to reach here
today from South Vernon. If it arrives il

The annual meeting OF the First Baptist
church was held last evening in the social
rooms Of the church, following the usual
excellent supper at which some $50 men,
bers of the parish gathered. The reports
of the officers and various committees were
especially satisfactory and the election OF

One change was made because Of the dec
hnation of F. J. Eddy to serve longer as
a deacon, E. V. Morse being elected in his
place
The reports showed that the benevolent
offerings amounted to S2623.16, more than
double any previous amount. The value
of the home mission boxes of clothing,
etc, was reported conservatively at 5000
The repair debt was reduced $500 during
the year and the balance shown was S5.93

THORPE'S TITLE
MIGHT HAVE STOOD
If He Had Made Clean Breast of Pro
fessional Playing He Would Have
Been Absolved

SAN FRANCISCO, April 3.-If
James Thorpe, the Indian athlete con-
victed of professionalism and stripped
of the honors won at the Olympic
games in Stockholm last summer, had
made a clean breast of his case to the
Amateur Athletic union when signing
as an entrant TO the games, he might
have been absolved of transgression
and have been given clear title to
the laurels which he achieved later.
This statement was made at ban
quet last night by James E. Sullivan
secretary of the union, who was here
to assist in making arrangements for
the international games which will be
held in San Francisco during the Pan
anna Pacific exposition in 1915.

LIGHTNING's QUEER FRANKS.
Caused Damage at E. B. Barrows' s
Summer Home on Ames Hin.

A bolt of lightning travelled a quar-
ter of a mile before it spent itself and
did clever work along its course during
the electrical storm Monday afternoon.
It first struck the top of telephone
pole that stands about 200 feet from
f. B. Barrows s summer home on Ames
hill. Parts of the pole were found 40
feet away.
Then it followed the wires to the
house and tore out the telephone, scat
tering the debris about the room,
thence to the cottage where George
Howard, the superintendent, had just
entered. Comparatively little damage
was done to that building, although
traces of its course are visible where
it entered at the gable.
! From the cottage it followed on to
the farm barn, where it struck the
northeast corner board, shattered it and
struck a thermometer which hung upor
! it, hurled it across the yard and EN-
bedded it in a large maple tree. Mr.
Howard was slightly affected but soor
recovered and made a thorough inves
tigation about the premises to make
sure that no fires resulted.

DEMOCRATS AGREE
ON FREE RAW WOOL
President Wilson Turns the House
Committee on Ways and Means
to His Way of Thinking.

WASHINGTON, April 3.-Removal
of all tariff from raw wool has
been agreed upon between Presi,
committee on ways and means,
The present plan, which will have
the unanimous endorsement of the
Democratic members of the committee,
provides that wool shall be placed on
the free list. an end for which the
free wool Democrats of the House have
fought for two years.
The concession to President Wilson
and the free wood advocates takes
the place of the Is per cent duty
which the committee had agreed upon.
This in turn, was a reduction from the
90 per cent duty of the Democratic
woolen revision bill which passed the
House last summer, but failed to be
come a law The free wool agreement
is expected to bring Secretary of State
BRYAN into full accord with the tariff
revision program
The free wool Democrats have press
ed their fight before President Wilson
in conferences in which Representa-
tives Harrison of New York and Rain
ey of Illinois, both members of the
ways and means committee, have been
the leading figures. Representative
Harrison, backed by Mr.. Bryan, made
an ardent fight in the last Congress tc
secure Endorsement of the free wool
policy A conference with the Demo
| cratic finance committee of the Senate
will be held tonight.
Under the existing law, wool carries
duty of approximately IL cents pei

ured on the ad yalorem basis. 1t /;

Family of E. j. Rolin on Forest Street
Disturbed Last Night.

Between and 10 clock last even
ing Mr.. and Mrs. o. J. Rolins who live
at p Forest street, heard a person tip
toeing across their front veranda and
later some one apparently attempting
to gain entrance to the house by try
ing to raise a window and again by at
tempting to open the front Gcor. 1t
is probable that the man supposed the
house to be dark as the shades are very
heavy and were closely drawn.
Mr.. Rolin went to the door and other
members of the family watched from
upper windows and saw a man ma king
hasty retreat when he learned he was
likely to be discovered. A short time
afterwards he was heard to give 4
peculiar whistle, which is believed
to have been a signal to comrads. Sew
eral months ago the people in thai
locality had a similar experience.
