FAT MEN IN TUG-OF-WAR.
Members of Association Enjoy Outing
mt AusabIe Chasm.

Thursday afternoon a large number
of stout men alightcd from the boat
which came from Port Kent and all
wore smiling contenanCes, for they had
Just returned from the New England
Fat Mems clubs annual outing, held
at Ausable Chasm. The party started
out "a hours before and. according to
the unanimous report, all had the best
kind of time and wished they had
more than one a year
Thursday they were occupied all day
in going through the chasm, taking
lunch, and enjoying out OF door sports
The feature of The sports was a tug
of war between a team captained by
jerome Hale Of Wells River and ono
which was directed By w. a. Kicker Of
st. Johnsbury. There were ten men on
side with over p ton Of human
avoiTdupois on each end of the rope
There was mighty strain and the
putting and grunting could be heard for
MANY rods. At last 90 fat legs went
up into the air and tho victory was
awarded to Rickers team. The 100 yard
dash was also exciting but there Is still
question as to who won the race
Then there were potato races and other
things which served to test the mem
bors along athletic lines.
The evening previous, the banquet
TaS held at the hotel with President
S s. Ballard Of Montpelier as toast
master. The banquet was followed by
sEor: speeches and songs and as many
ladies were present, there was also
dance. Taken all in all. the affair was
q mighty success.

MAN AND WOMAN IN JAIL.
Have Posed ms Married Couple and
May Have Struggled Horses.

Another white slave case may result
from the arrest Friday of Joseph Rob
inson of CRANKY, p O., and a woman
whose name could not be learned that
night. but was said to be Rose Lajoie,
at the home of Joseph Robinson on Elm
wood avenue. The couple came to this
city a few weeks ago and have since
passed as man and wife. The arrest was
made by government officials at the insti-
cation of a Canadian official who came
to Burlington tracing some horses which
the pair brought with them. These were
located in their possession so that a
charge of smuggling may be made as
they are suspected or having paid no
duty on the animals a hearing was pro-
posed for Saturday. but United States
District Attorney Alexander Dunnett was
forced to leave for his homee Friday
so it will be a matter of some days be-
fore the hearing can be held. Robinson
is a relative of the man with whom he
has been staying, and the latter had no
doubt but they We're married.
From what could be gathered Fri
day the man has a wife and the woman
a husband living in Canada. Robinson
| had leased stable with some horses
and was conducting a sort of livery at
CRANKY. When he pulled up stakes he
took one of his children and drove pair
of horses to this city. The woman Joined
the party with her child and drove an
! other of the horses from the stable. 1t is
alleged that an attempt has since been
made to dispose Of the teams. Both the
man and woman and the children are
held in the county jail awaiting further
action on the part of the officials, The
children will probably be sent back to
Canada. The teams have been seized by
the officials.
FOUR CHARGES POSSIBLE.
A preliminary hearing for the purpose
of fixing bail was held in tho Jail Satur-
day morning and the amount fixed at $1,000
in the case of Rose Lajoie and George
Robinson, the Canadian couple who Were

SCORES Of POOR [I77LE
CHILDREN FACE TRAGEDY
Of THE EMPTY STOCKING

It doesn't take much to make a
child happy at Christmas time.
If It's a little boy, a green jack-in-
the-box, a monkey on a string, or a
red engine and cars, will fill his small
soul with bliss; and a little girl will
DO overwhelmed with joy if she finds
IN her stocking a rag doll or a voolly
Teddy Bear. How she'll hug it, and
Groom over it and sing it to sleep,
And if you come too near, she'll warn
you with an admonishing forefnger
and a soft, "Be quiet, baby's sleep
ing
Maybe you know something of the
spirit Of childhood at Christmas time.
Maybe you remember how good you
we're on the day before, and how, on
Christmas Eve, you said your pray
srs dutifully, and then you hung up
your stocking, confident that Santa
Claus would fill it with ali the de-
,ires of your little heart Maybe
YOU remember how hard it was to go
TO sleep, and how you sat straight
up in bed every time the wind rat
tied the windows, or swept around
the corner of the house Maybe it's
Santa!"
And how hard it was not To go and
,-e, though you knew that if you
did you'd brighten Santa away and
he'd never come back.
Then Scamper to the Stocking.
And then maybe you remember
how you awoke, trembling with ca
Gerness. at the first sign of dawn;
how you slid from your bed and
scampered into the room where you
had hung your stocking; how you
snuggled your bare feet against the
warm hearth Of the fireplace, and
then. with a heart full of hope and
eyes that shone with eager happi-
ness, you looked up at your stock
ing; and then
Maybe you were one of those whit
came face to face with the most pitt
full tragedy of Childhood-the Tragedy
Of the Empty Stocking.
Maybe you remember how the
tears blinded your eyes; how your
heart felt suddenly like lead. You
could hardly believe it; yet there was
