| KILLED, 3 HURT
When Speeding Car Upsets at
Bayside.

George Kenneth Glass of 585 Greene
avenue, son of Mr.. and Mrs. George D.
Glass, was crushed to death and three
of his companions were hurt at o clock
Saturday morning when his automobile,
which he was driving, turned turtle at
a sharp turn on the Bayside Boulevard,
near Third place, Bayside. The stear-
ing gear of the overturned machine
landed on Glass body, breaking his
neck and causing compound fracture
of the base of the skull He died at
a. m. in the Flushing hospital.
One of the passengers in the Glass
machine was Mrs. TOD" Robbins, who
about two years ago was separated from
her young husband, Clarence Aaron
Robbins of 301 Garfield place, Brooklyn,
and Great River, L. l. She is now liv-
ing at the Douglas Manor Inn, Douglas
ton, and she was on her way home from
dance at the Garretson Inn, Willets

Joy Ends with Wreck Of Auto

An automobile stolen by two joyriders
who took two chorus girls for an out
ing started from the North End and
was to terminate at an inn about twenty
miles from Boston, ended a little more
suddenly than was planned early Sun
day morning, when the machine crashed
through a fence on the Newburyport
turnpike in Saugus, after a wheel
snapped off at the axle.
The automobile is the property of
Sutton S. Lisett of Worcester. 1t was
missed within a few minutes of the
time of the theft, and general alarm
was sounded, the Saugus police being
in waiting for the machine at the time
it went through the fence on the turn
pike.
They learned of the wrecked car and
hurried to the scene, placing under ar
rest Young man who gave his name as
George Richards, SO Albion street, Som
ervlle, and who was turned over to the
Boston police, pending further investi-
CATION. The police are looking for
three others, all of whom are believed
to ave been slightly injured.

Killed by Their Own Fault,

If dozen passengers are killed in
railway accident, the public is hor-
rified. If 100 passengers were killed
each week on American railways, the
horror of the slaughter would be world
wide. But 1884 trespassers were killed
on our railways during the single year
ended June 30, 1912, without our special
wonder. Marcus A. Dow, general
safety agent of the New York Central
Lines, says in the current number of
the Outlook, that three-fourths of these
trespassers were tradesmen, wage
earners, citizens living in the vicinities
where they were killed, and women and
children. Only fourth of them were
considered tramps.
In the last 20 years sc, 1888 trespassers
on railways were killed by their own
fault, and 94,646 were injured. The
record is disgrace to our civilization,
sign of national recklessness. In
this state active measures are now
beng taken to reduce the amount of
trespassing on railways, thus to lessen
the number of slain trespassers. The
New York Central railroad property
makes this the chief activity of its
Safety First" movement, and its
agents are busy in a propaganda of
educating the people, the lawmakers,
and the magistrates and judges, to
their duty of lettering law breakers.
BY their efforts, each month between
1000 and 1000 persons caught trespass.
ing on the New York Central road have
been arrested and summary dealt with
by the magistrates. 1t is an offense
subject to fine and Imprisonment. For
the public welfare, and for the sake OF
their own lives, the offenders should be
severely dealt with. New York Times.

A VERMONT PRODUCT.

Vermont, it seems, holds second
place among the states of the Union in
the production of tale. New York
comes first and then Vermont. which
Is followed by Virginia, Georgia, Mary
land, Massachusetts, New jersey.
North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode
Island and California. More than AZ
per cent of the total output of the
United States in 1912 came from New
York.
The total marketed production of tale
for 1912 was !, 332. 2S9 short tons, valued
at 81, O96, 483, decided increase COM
pared with the production of 1911.
By far the most important use of tale
is in the manufacture of paper, but
there is large demand for it in the
manufacture of rubber Tale is not
only mixed in the rubber throughout
its body but is used on the surface to
free the rubber from the molds. An
other important use of tale is in sizing
and bleaching cotton cloth On account
of its high insulating qualities with
reference to both electricity and heat
tale is employed in the manufacture of
many forms of lnsulators, among which
is the covering of electric wires and
switchboards, and the flooring for cleo
trio stations. 1t is also used largely in
the manufacture of toilet powders and
of paints, particularly waterproof
paints, as well as for foundry facing in
casting iron. The tale for which there
is perhaps the greatest demand in the
United States is the compact variety
used for pencils, gas tips, and high
grade insulators. Burlington News.

Shelburne Falls, Mass, October g.
Another unfortunate automobile acct
deut happened here last evening, when
Charles j. Neilman of Wellington street
was struck by a machine owned and
driven by George W. Bunnell, president
of the Power Construction company of
this town. The accident happened on
Main street opposite the Baptist church
about O'Clock. According to reports,
Mr. Neilman, who was carrying a bas-
ket o. clothes on his shoulder, thought
that he had time to cross the street in
front of the car. which was moving I'D
the road at moderate pace. Bunnell
saw that he could not stop the car in
time to avoid running down Neilman
and whirled the car into the gutter, but
not in time to prevent the outside wheel
from striking him.
Several men just coming out of church
assisted Mr.. Bunnell to put Neiman
into the car in which he was rushed to
the office of DIR. c. L. Upton. Upon
examination it was found he had sus-
tsined compound fracture of one leg
and simple fracture of the other, both
below the knee. After making him as
comfortable as possible, DIR. Upton
took Neilman in his machine to the
Franklin county hospital in Greenfield,
where DR.. Howe and DIR. Leary, who
had been summoned by telephone,
assisted DR.. Upton in reducing the
fractures.

Has Habit of Turning Turtle.

A touring car belonging to and being
driven by Fred Bombard, of this city,
turned turtle Saturday evening about
8 o'clock on South Main street between
Diamond street and Gilman. lombard
and Fred Longway, who was with him,
were thrown under the car, lombard
escaping with but a few scratches.
Longway was not so fortunate, suffer-
ing fractured wrist and two broken
ribs. Harry church, who was also in
the car, was uninjured.
1t is not known how the car happened
to turn over but the road was wet and
oily and it is thought that the wheels
were caught in the car track, causin g
the accident.
This car appears to be hooded. Two
years ago B. Melvin Hopkins, at that
time the owner of the machine, was
spilled out when driving through Grand
Isle, Mrs. Hopkins receiving a frac-
tured arm. During the early part of
this summer Frank Shore and family
were thrown out, but no one was hurt
with the exception of Mrs. Shore who
received bad shaking up. The third
time, last Saturday evening, proved
more serious. Beside the injury to
Bombard and Longway tie car was
damaged, the windshield being broken,
the front part of the machine badly
twisted and bent, the lamps ruined and
the hood and radiator being badly dam
aged. st. Adams Messenger.

IL Given Dinner on Eve of Depart

New York, October 3.-Theodore
Roosevelt babe his friends farewell to-
night on the eve of his departure on
a journey to UNEMPLOYED regions of
South America at a dinner given in
his honor by the Progressive national
. service and the Progressive service of
the State of New York. Addressing
some 1000 men and women, who gath
cred in his honor at the New York

in which he apparently sought to put
a quietus on published reports that he
intends to return to the republican
party. ~
81 warn our opponents that the fight
has only just begun" he said, his
voice breaking in his earnestness. 81
will never abandon the principles to
which we Progressives have pledged
ourselves"
''What has happened and is happen
ing in this State illustrates absolutely
the need of the practical application
OF our progressive principles, said
the colonel. The two old parties
are absolutely dominated by Messrs.
Barnes and Murphy. We are fighting
the battle of the plain people, of the
rank and file of both old parties when
we war against the machines and
bosses and the old parties. Until we
have real direct primaries and the
genuine control by the people of their
own party organizations, there is nc
possible way by which the people may
recall Mr.. Barnes and Mr.. Murphy.
If they are satisfied to have their poll.
tics run by Mr.. Barnes and Mr.. Murphy
why | have nothing to say, but if they
are not satisfied they ought to have the
chance to recall them

Struck by Auto m O bile.

Frank E. Spear of South Burlington
and his two daughters, the Misses Edith
and Helen, were severely injured Satur-
day night when their carriage in which
they were driving on the main highway
from Burlington to Shelburne about nine
O'Clock was crashed into near the water
ing trough by an automobile, said to be
going at high speed, and whose occu-
pants never even slackened speed to see
what damage they had done. Mr.. Spear
and his daughters were thrown out of
the carriage and the former and his
daughter, Helen, were rendered I'M
conscious. Miss Edith summoned help.
Seeing ahead of them the reflection of
the lights of an automobile approaching
from the rear they turned to the right
and Miss Edith Spear held lantern at
the left of the carriage. The automo-
bilists failed to heed the carriage, which
they struck. The road at that point is
wide and the night was not very dark.
An investigation is being made to dis
cover the names of the automobiles.
Three of Mr.. S ears ribs were frac-
tured, and he was badly bruised on the
shoulder and side, and may have suf-
fered internal injuries. His condition
yesterday was not as comfortable as on
Sunday. Both his daughters were
severely bruised. - Burlington Free

CENSUS TAKEN OF VERMONT
NAPLES.
Number Of Trees Tapped 5,o76,-
375-Pounds of Sugar Made
6,692,o63.

Montpelier, Oct. 6.-Secretary of
State Guy w. Bailey has completed the
compiling of the returns from the town
clerks made to his Office in accordance
with No. 46 of the public acts of 1912,
which required the listers to ascertain
approximately how many maple trees
were tapped, the number of maple trees
not tapped and available, and how many
pounds of maple sugar andl how many
gallons of maple syrup were made by
each person engaged in the manufacture
of maple sugar or syrup during the year.
The act also provides for census of
the number of horses, mich cows, hogs
and other stock for the current year,
and, in quadrennial years beginning
with 1918, the total number of acres of
tilage, pasture land, orchard land and
| forest or woodland.
Returns are in from all excepting 10
towns. The towns which have failed to
report are Dorset, Woodford, South
Burlington, Bloomfield, Vershire, Derby,
Warren, Putney, Cavendish and Wal
| den.
This is the first census of the number
of maple trees tapped and untapped that
are available, which has ever been
taken in this State, and up to this time
it has been matter of guess as to the
number of maple trees the State con-
tanned The information was collected
by the listers who made their re-
port to the town clerks who then
made return to the Secretary of State.
According to the statistics furnished
the three towns making the most maple
sugar are Cambridge, Montgomery and
Greensboro.

tire State follows:
