BACK IN STATE ASSOCIATION.
Barre Golf Club Votes to Join Again
George M. Marion Club President.

A largely attended meeting of the
Barre Golf club was held at the club
house last evening when the annual cleo
tion of officers was held and social
time was enjoyed. The officers elected
for the ensuing year are as follows;
President, George NJ. Marion; vice pres
ident, +. NJ. Roscoe; secretary, w. w.
Russell; treasurer, Mrs. w. A. Mathie-
son; executive committee with the above
officers, James Mackay, B. W. Hooker
and David Stuart; match committee,
James Mackay, John t. Averill and A.
p. Abbott.
The treasurer's report showed full
membership and satisfactory condition
of the club financially, there being a
sizeable balance at the end of the year
with all but few minor bills paid. II
was voted to rejoin the Vermont State
Golf association, from which the club
withdrew a few years back, and it was
voted to hold the annual banquet, to-
gether with the presentation of prizes
won during the year, not later than No
vember Is. Votes of thanks were ten
dered to the retiring list or officers and
TO those who have donated prizes dur
ing the season.
Following the completion of the bust
ness, light refreshments were served and
some INDUCED in cards before the cheer
full glow of the blazing logs IN the fire.
place. The verdict of those present was
that the innovation of holding the an
nual meeting at the clubhouse instead
of uptown was decidedly pleasing. The
prospects of the club for the ensuing
year are encouraging. The golf season
has closed as far as tournaments are
concerned, but the. greens will be kept
moved for some time longer and the
course is being used by many players,
and will be till snow flies, most prob
ably.

! of various charitable organizations met
the Grosser Kurfurst at her Hoboken
pier and the survivors were brought to
New York Efforts will be made to re-
unite families. The immigration rules
were suspended, although many of the
rescued are paupers. The Uranium line,
in whose service the Volturno was en-
gagged, will pay the passage of survivors
to their destinations.
AT Shelter Home, where they had been
fed and clothed, the survivors declared
almost in one voice that many OF the
Volturnos crew were guilty of cowardice-
They told of having seen sailors rush to
the sides of the burning ship, push wom-
en- and children aside, and leap into the
lfeboats and lower themselves, while
helpless passengers remained on the
decks and prayed to be saved. II
watched that first boat as it descended
to the water and ! envied these men
who sat in it," said Herman Remer, a
survivor. "They had found life"
But the stories brought in by wireless
and the ones told on land yesterday
show that those of the crew who thus
took the place of passengers in the life
boats are not among the rescued. The
boats were overturned and all in them
perished. One sailor leaped from the
Volturno's deck, alighted amidship in
an overcrowded lifeboat and his weight
split the craft in two and all were
drowned, said one survivor.
Passengers described also scenes of
panic when the people in the steerage
made their rush for the upper decks aft
er the first explosion. Women were
knocked down, Others were swept over
board and were drowned, children were
walked upon and killed, according to the
stories. Passengers fell to their knees
and were trampled on as they prayed.
Everyone for himself in cases of this
kind" members of the crew replied when
appealed to for protection. u

DERAILED CAR BLOCKED TRACK.
Central vermont's Schedule Seriously In
terfered with To-day.

The main line of the Central Ver-
mont railroad was blocked for several
hours this morning when a freight car,
which was loaded with corn, was de-
rallied at point just south of a
switch at Montpelier Junction. The ac
cident happened while extra freight 767
was engaged in shifting when one set of
trucks went off the iron and were forced
back against the other set, allowing the
unsupported end of the car to settle on
the track This blocked the main line
in such manner that the passenger
trains could not pass.
Passengers on the north bound passen-
ger train this morning were transferred
to the Barre branch train, but the mail
and express matter was not delivered to
the Montpelier and Barre post and ex-
press offices till the middle of the fore.
noon. A wreck crew set to work and
cleared the track in an hours time. Con-
ductor Guy and Engineer Barton were
in charge of the freight train figuring
in the mishap.

COLLEGE STUDENTS BAR TANGO.
University of Vermont Men Took That
Attitude Last Night.

Burlington, Oct. l6.-Because all were
considered undesirable and not worth
while, and many of them were decided
ly impropt it was voted last evening
at meeting OF the students council of
the University of Vermont to bar rag
dances from college functions OF every
kind.
The vote was unanimous and the
meeting followed an agitation that had
been persistent for several weeks.
The faculty has long been opposed to
the dances and at recent meeting de-
cided to let the students council, which
is composed of representative students,
decide the matter.
The ban is placed particularly against
the turkey trot, one step and tango,
but as it was difficult to discriminate
between some of the others, all were
barred, this meaning that only the good
old fashioned dances will be in vogue
in Burlington's polite society during the
coming winter, as the college life has
much to do with governing Burlington
social functions.

Casarico to cook. He got the stuff ready
to cook in the afternoon, he continued
and would come around in the evening
for supper. He never had beer there
ON such occasions, he said. Officer Harry
Gamble testified TO raiding the house
with other officers and seizing a half
