Recent Fracas.

Barre Town officers believe they have
! found the man who furnished liquor for
the fracas which resulted in the assault
on Alex Belcher at Tough End" in Gran
| teylle on the night of Dec. ). Since the
preliminary arraignment of Joseph Nor
gan, Polish quarryman on charge Of
having assaulted Belcher with intent to
| kill, it has developed that old John Bar

rant from States Attorney j. Ward
Carver and arrested one Llama Contullo
on a charge of selling liquor Illegally.
Contullo, quarryman, was brought to

night. The respondent pleaded not gull
tv and furnished bail of $500 for his APP
pearance at a hearing to be held in the
case Saturday morning. Morgan, the al
legged assalant of Belcher, who is under
bail of 81 900 will be given a hear
ing in East Barre justice court tomor-
row forenoon.

before Magistrate Scott and pleaded
guilty to a breach of the peace charge.
In reprimanding the respondent for hind
ering an officer in the performance of his
duty, Judge Scott told Allen that his all
legged act deserved sentence in the
house of correction EXtenuating cir
cumstances, however moved the judge to
let the man down with a SO fine and
costs Of S5l4, which he paid Allen was
arrested by Chief Sinclair on a complaint
made to Grand Juror William Wishart.
According TO the statements made by
Deputy SherifTs Slayton and A. NJ Nor
rison. the pair went to Aliens store to

goods Allen. they say. didn't take kind
ly to the idea Of his stock of cigars be-
ing attached and went so far as TO threat

in on each other. according to the testi-
mony when Deputy Morrison hobbled TO

censor in Paris, were passed in the
Eclaireur de Nice, and now the Cri

The newspaper was one of the first
institutions hit by the war. With the
first excitement circulation went up by
leaps and bounds, while the mobiliza.

paper. Dailies that had not a good re-

PARIS PAPERS,
HOW THEYG GET

THE CENSOR, WHO is QUOTED
AS "cAPRIcIOUS AS A PRETTY
WOMAN" GETS THE BEST OF 1T
NEWSPAPERS HARD HIT.

Paris, Dec. 14-Correspondence OF
The Associated Press.)-Peculiar
things happen to news In these days
when it Is so scarce and censors are
so strict. Much news is lifted" from
one newspaper into another, and when
writer gets story into print there
is no telling under what date line, or
whose name, it may reappear.
One of the few graphic and authentic
stories from the front appeared in an
afternoon paper here on a recent Sun
day. 1t was cabled to New York the
same evening. The next day Paris
newspaper picked up the story and
that afternoon another paper did the
same thing. Other papers, morning
and afternoon, ran the story on Tues
day. And then, on Wednesday morn
ing an English newspaper printed the
item as special dispatch from the
north of France" over the signature
of an authentic war correspondent
The incident is not so much an eX-
ample of loose editorial work as a
demonstration of the journalists trou-
bles during the war Copy is scarce
enough at best, and the censor ruins
the best of it while the staffs of all
the Paris papers are decimated by the
mobilization.

story that passes observation today,
may catch the eye tomorrow. This
