Roosevelt to Aid Rose in Ninth?

Hon. j. L. Rose, of Abingdon, Pro-
gressive candidate for congress in
the Ninth District Of Virginia, was
II visitor to Bristol this week. He
says that as the nominee of the Roo :
sevelt party for congress, his hat is
in the ring and will stay there until
the polls close in November. He will
make an active canvass of the dist
rict.
1t is believed that Ex-President
Roosevelt will come TO the aid of Mr.
Rose in the Ninth district and it is
possible that he will make one OF
more speeches in the district before
the campaign is over.
Commenting on an interview by A.
p. Crockett, published this week, Mr..
Rose said:
"Mr. Crockett has most alway2
been served at the Slemp pie counter
and amounts to but little in the est
nation of the progressives. Mr.. Croc-
kett doubtless remembers that Colonel
Roosevelt carried the Ninth district
in 1912, or perhaps that fact has es.
capped his mind at present, but if he
will only turn to the records he can
be convinced, and it little matters to
the Progressive Roosevelt following
in the Ninth, of which there is vast
majority, how many times Mr. Croc-
kett, Mr. Slemp's paid secretary calls
them "disgruntled," because they are
not disgruntled, but are standing for
justice and the cause of Colonel Roo
sevelt and the Progressive party.
"Again Mr.. Crockett must bear iii
mind that my hat is in the ring and
will remain there until the close Of
the polls on the 7th. of November, and
remember it little matters to the Pro-
gressive Roosevelt following what
Mr.. Slemp's secretary has to say.

1t was during a sickness of Mr..

then one of the heavy stockholders of
the bank, came to Mr.. Fellows and
asked him to take charge of the bank
during Nr. Philbrick's absence. BY Mr..
Fellows good business principles and
his excellent judgment of business af-
fairs he won early in life the distinc-
ton of being one of the most efficient
bank officials in the State.
In 1860 Mr.. Fellows was elected
cashier of the Second National Bank

ago This institution was organized in
1854 and did its business for short

ming, Elmer Varney, 1G-year- old
boy, who had been assisting with the
farm work since Monday. disappeared.
Someone had also ransacked the house,
taking money from different places
amounting in all to $50. NO trace Oh
Varney has been found.
The boy applied Monday to Mr..
Garland asking for work and was Civ
en- a chance to help with the chores.
He seemed to be doing satisfactorily,
and the family believing him to be
honest, as he had worked in the cot
ton mill in Waterville and for neigh
bors, had given him room in the
house Shortly after supper Thursday
Mr.. and Mrs. Garland left the house
in charge of the boy, telling him they
would be back early. Mr.. Garland
was the last to leave and gathered UP
what money he knew to be about the
house. Mrs. Garland, who is treasurer
for a missionary society. had some
money in the dining room desk drawer
and on the mantel piece. OF which
Mr.. Garland knew nothing, and this
is what is missing.
The family returned about 9 o'clock,
and the boy was missing. They saw
that the drawers and other places
had been ransaeked, and soon after
found that the money was missing.
Friday the police were notified. ana
now a search is being made to re-
cover the boy and the money 1t IS
possible that he has gone to Augusta
as he has a brother there. HIS grand
mother lives in Hinckley.

WATERVILLE HAS A
NEW COMBINATION TRUCK
FOR FIRE DEPARTMENT

Glittering with its trimmings Of
brilliant brass and copper the new
combination hose and chemical wagon
of the fire department reached its
Waterville home, ealy Friday morning.
and rested all day long in its own
back dooryard, waiting to be put into
active service. Secure, solid, sub
stantial and yet beautiful, the i'm
mense structure of wood. brass and
iron will fill a long-felt want in the
fire fighting equipment of the city
Its body, wheels and general wood
work is of bright vermilion red. The
gold is in evidence in the lighter
spots, and the wheels. and iron work
have been relieved by lines of black.
At each side, below the drivers seat
the inscription Combination. W. F. d. :
tells plainly for what it is intended.
The trimmings, including the ratings,
the lamps, the bell, the nozzles, the
hub hoods are all of brass and copper.
The body itself is Il feet long, and
with the projection of the rear step
and the wheels in front, the whole
probably measures Is feet. The rub
Der tires with the hub brakes give
the latest devices in the way of wheels.
The copper tank, which is to con-
tain the IS gallons of chemical is con-
cealed beneath the drivers seat. The
$50 feet of inch and a half hose to be
used for the chemical is in rack
above the other hose compartment,
which has a capacity for 1000 feet or
hose. The hose arrived with the
wagon and will be part of the new
equipment.
Running from just in the rear of the
seat to the termination of the wagon
a large rack, directly in the center
and about four feet above the moor
of the cart, contains a 12-foot roof
ladder and a 20-foot extension ladder
Two brackets for hand chemicals are
on the rear step, and axes are hung
at handy places. Loaded the wagon
will weigh about $500 pounds, and for
this the city has paid sl100. The
builders are the Combination Ladder
Company of Providence, r. I.
It will be used to replace Hose 2
which will be reserved for an emer-
gency, and will probably be put into
service Monday.

place by defeating E. G. Williams of
the Viking Rowing Club
Englishmen make no attempt to hide
their chagrin at this successful 1nva-
sion of a sport which until recent
years they considered exclusively their
own.
The only thing now left to the Eng
lishmen is the Henley record OF 3
minutes, 81 seconds, in which time the
race has been rowed three times. The
Americans will go after this record
tomorrow.
The general opinion of the English
oarsmen is that the American crews
won their places in the final, despite
their style, because their material and
training methods were the better. OF
the Harvard crew a Leander oarsman
said tonight;
II have never seen a better crew.
They row with perfect uniformity and
are credit to America, which has
shown the world of sport what team
work really means"
Leander already is considering the
possibility of raising crew of expe-
rienced men to regain the trophy in
1915.
Guy Nickalls, who assisted in
coaching the Yale crew which recent
ly defeated Harvard. said tonight of
Robert F. Herrick. coach of the Har-
ward second crew and his men:
"Herrick has got a great bunch of
boys and has done wonders with them.
He has taught them the exact English
style. If Herrick continues to coach
them shall be nervous at New Lon
