MORE MARBLE UNCOVERED.
Pasture Between Roxbury and Mortified
Has a Vein.

promising vein of marble has been
located on the farm in Roxbury and
Northfeld owned by Angelo Scampini OF
Berlin street, and the Barney Marble Co
of Swanton, which operates quarres in
Roxbury, has started TO uncover a size
able area on. the Scampini property. EN-
perts say the stone is a rich blue marble
suitable for interior purposes and much
is expected of the recently uncovered
deposit. Through an old agreement with
IA former owner of the farm, the
Barney company reserves the right to
quarry stone on the land should de-
sirable vein of marble be located at any
time. Hence, Mr.. Scampini is not a
party to the operations even now under
way.
Superintendent Cady of the Roxbury
quarries has a gang of quarrymen at
work scaling the surface of the deposit
and the project is expected soon to as
sumo much larger proportions. The
quarry is located in a pasture on what
is known as west hill, in Northfield. and
is one mile from the largest Roxbury
quarry controlled by the Barney com
pany.

FORMER BARRE RESIDENT.
William Reid Died Oct. 7 in Pasadena,
California.

Word was received in the city to-day
of the death of William Reid, former
resident of Barre, whose death occurred
at Pasadena, CAL, on October Z, fol-
lowing an illness of several years. Mr.
Reid was for many years resident OF
Barre, following his occupation as a
granite cutter. During his, residence
here he gained wide circle of friends,

He leaves besides his wife, one daugh-
ter, Ethel, aged IL, and one son, Ivan,

ing to impaired health few years ago.
About four years ago he assumed a po-
sition as insurance agent. In July, 1912,

BOY NOT HURT.
Although Big Horse Lay on Him After
Stumbling.

When black horse from Cutler Bros.
stables lost its foothold on the highway
near the band stand on Washington
street late yesterday afternoon, its
youthful rider was pitched over the ami
mal's head. The horse, unable to main
tain its equilibrium, started up a pace
and then fell heavily on the boy, who
was unable to scramble out of the way.
Stunned by the weight of the big driver,
the lad lay in the street as though un-
conscious. Passersby rushed to his as
sistance and carried him into the near
by office of DIR. G. F. Camp. The ply
sician examined the youngster for brol-
en- bones, but found none. Presently
the patient recovered enough to tell his
name. He said it was Edison Brown
and he gave a Merchant street number
for his address. Although bruised in
places and still suffering from the shock,
he was able to go home. The physician
said the injuries We're of a superficial ma
ture and that the boy would soon re-
cover.
Brown is employed as stable boy
by Cutler Bros, and was taking the
horse out for its afternoon constitution
al when the mishap occurred. He was
riding bareback and the animal wasn't
travelling very fast, according to crowd
of Spaulding school students who saw
the affair. The ANIMAL stumbled. it is
believed. and fell while attempting to
recover its balance. 1t was not iniarsd-

CAPT. INCH TELLS
OF HIS ORDEAL
Commander of the volturno 0mits to
Say What the Cause of the Fire
Was, Watch Below Were
Trapped.

New York, Oct. l5.-Capt. Francis
Inch whose steamer, the Volturno, was
burned at sea with the loss of 1876 lives
told his story of the disaster last night
1t is plain seaman's tale, but in itline
by line the horrors of the disaster and
the terrible ordeal through which the
passengers and crew passed are brought
out all the more clearly perhaps, be-
cause of the marked directness and sim
plicity with which the story is told.
From its beginning, where the out
break of the fire which spelled the doom
of the Voltourno is recorded, the narrative
runs without the apparent omission of
any salient fact, except one, to the point
where the blazing ship was abandoned
the last remaining passenger having
been taken off and the captain and what
was left of the crew having boarded the
waiting Kroonland. The omission is
that Captain Inch does not say what
caused the fire reporting simply that the
chief officer advised him at $3.50 on the
morning of Oct. of its existence below,
and that five minutes later the flames
had burst through the forward matches
and were spreading rapidly.
Although all possible measures were
Mt once taken to subdue the fire, the
captains story shows that it was even
then too late to save the watch below.
The men were trapped in the forecastle
and burned to death there, their fell
low sailors being helpless to aid them.
Then came explosions which wrecked
steamer. The situation was plainly be-
coming desperate.
The call for help by wireless had gone
out as soon as the flames shot through
the forward matches and the crew was
doing its fighting best to stay the
progress of the blaze until assistance
should come.
1t looked then as if there was no pos
sible chance to save the steamer and,
although the seas were running high and
the Volturno was rolling heavily the
captain had boats provisioned and
swung out.
