The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1913-11-08

We are now receiving by nearly
every express new garment values.
These are Coats that are different,
and in style and color that the trade
are demanding. The only way we
can do this is by keeping in close
touch with the market, and have the
new models shipped as soon as they
come out.
We received for Saturday a lot of
Coats in Blue, Black and Brown that
are new and little different; are
made of the seasons best cloths, and
are models that will surely appeal to
the trade as just what they want.
We have some very good values in
the Black Seal Plush. These are
Coats we had made to supply de-
mand we have had for the Cony, We
lour Coat. These are a very popu-
lar Coat.
We have some extra good values in
the Black Coats that are made up in
the long, square and slightly round
ed corners. These are made espe-
eially for elderly ladies. We want
a nice plain Coat come in the odd
sizes, up to as inch bust. See our
new values in the Blue and Brown

PLUMBERS Of
PENSACOLA 60
OUT ON STRIKE
WANT CONTRACTING PLUMBERS
TO ABOLISH THE OPEN SHOP
PLAN AND EMPLOY ONLY UNION
MEN.

The journeynen plumbers of Pensa-
ognition of their union by the different
plumbing concerns and with the ex-
ception of one establishment all are
running their places on the open shop
plan. The only demand of the plumb
ers is that the employing plumbers sign
a contract for the coming year which
will compel them to conduct their es-
tablishments on the closed shop plan,
the question of wages and hours not
being at issue in the strike.
Officers of the union said yesterday
evening that the proprietors of the
plumbing firms will import men from
other cities to take the places of the
strikers, but that up to yesterday nc
officers Of the union say that at pres
ent there are only four non union
plumbers in the city and that three OF
them have made application for men,

Secretary George Hinrichs. Of the

which Milton Briggs is president, is

ADJUSTMENTS.
Yesterdays Attraetion.

'The Darktown Politician" a musi-
cal comedy with nothing perceptible
to do with its name-therefore real
musical comedy-played matinee and
night performances yesterday at the
Pensacola opera house.
The show was written, staged and
played by a company of negro per-
formers that made fun and harmony
from the rise of the curtain.
The principals were Salem Tutt
Whitney, who wrote and staged the
play and took the leading part as Lem
Lee, the mayor of Newtown; Homer
Tut, who played Neat Ned" first a
fashion plate, then a military captain
out after eighteen people that changed
from colored folks to Indians between
the second and third acts; Blanche
Thompson, who played the part of a
coquette; Ethel Marshall, as "Poca-
hontas'; Nettie Taylor, Marie Wayne,
Russell Smith and Leigh Whipper.
Each one in the show had more than
three or four words-enough at least
to show he or she possessed talent.
That was one of the features of the
show and, as a result, nobody got
bored by any comedian that might
have been all right had he not been
overloaded.
There was nothing to write of in the
way of a plot, but there were plenty
of funny situations. really good music
clever dancing-and it was clean, from
beginning to end.

He is a lawyer by profession, and
grandson of J. B. Chrisman, one of the
most distinguished jurists the state
ever knew. It was Judge Chrisman
who broke up and put an end to
whitecapping in Lincoln county some
fifteen years ago. and at a time when
il seemed that he was taking his life
in his hands. He read the riot act to
the mob that had assembled in the
courthouse and the ringieaders quailed
before his steady eye.
Young Chrisman was convicted in
Amite county on the charge of having
obtained money under false pretenses
and was sentenced to three years in
the penitentiary. That was in March
and since which time he has been on

YOUNG ALSO WORKING FOR
CALUMET FEDERAL BUILDING
r. n SHIELDS EXPECTED ACTION
TO BE TAKEN SHORTLY
IN THE HOUSE.

II must admit that I was greatly
surprised at the action Of Senator
William Alden Smith in introducins
the bill to appropriate $500, 600 for a
postotiicc building at Calumet" de
clarcd r. H. Shields of Houghton this
morning. "Not that the prospect Of
building such structure was at all
new. but ! expected the action to he
taken IN the House and not in the
Senate.
Congressman Young has been
working actively for an appropriation
for such a building for some time
Priority counts largely in such affairs,
and as the agitation for the Houghton
building was older than the one for
Calumet the Houghton bin was re-
ported out first An such matters
have TO go through committees and IL
sometimes takes years TO get hearing
on such matter. I have here letter
written by CONGRESSMAN Young to mo
on September IS. 1912, in which he
says that the work for the two build
iugs. one for Houghton and one for
calumet. was. going forward as we'll
as could Doe expected. Mr.. Young quotes
a letter which he had just received
from Hon. John L. Burnett. chairman
Of the. House committee on public
buildings and grounds, in which Mr.
Burnett stated that the question Of a
site for Calumet will be taken up by
the committee and given due consid-
Grafton i'm December"
The committee was to have taken up
the Houghton building slightly before
this time and this leads Mr.. Shields to
believe that the Calumet appropriation
would have been reported out in
short time Ia any event.

Judge of Probate G. g. Bentley

that the saloons would have 10 close
and pointed out the statutes governing
tho case The Warncr-Crampton law
of 1909 states that an saloons must
close ON legal holidays and Act 80
of the Acts Of 1905 defines Washing

as it mas never been amended in this
