disappointed by the non-appearance OF

r. Bennett, NJ. j. Hapgood, Ned Bry-

party, with the exception of two, but
reinforced by several others, went on

sleeper. Yes, the editor went and was
in at the finish although little foot
sore.
While carefully running his Ford
car last Sunday afternoon, 0. w.
Bonyton was in collision on small
bridge near +. II. Brownson's in Ar
lington with seven passenger tour
ing Overland car owned by parties
from Schenectady, N. y, in which Mr..
Boynton and his party as well as car,
came off second best. My Boynton's
sister-in-law from Brooklyn, was with
him and when the cars struck she was
thrown out of the car into the brook,
but fortunately was uninjured save
for the shock of the affair. The front
part of Mr.. Boynton's car was smash
ed and other injuries done to it.
The mountain road to the summit of
Mt. Equinox from the notch road has
been put in good shape for vehicles
and from now on carriages can be
driven to the summit, from whence
one of the finest views anywhere about
her can be obtained. 1t is to be hored
that the opening up of this road will
bring about the changing of the pres
ent roadway going up to the notch so
that motor vehicles can make this
trip as well as wagons. A fine log
cabin on the summit would add very
materially to the attractiveness of the
place and we have no doubt but that
if the travel becomes heavy enough
that way that such convenience will
be erected
Dr. c. s. Caverley, president of the
state board of health, and Prof. j. w.
Votey, state engineer, were in town
last Friday and inspected the local
lock up. They are on trip through
the state on this errand of examining
all the jails and lockups. No especial
complaint was made of the local lock-
up except that they did not altogether
approve of the heating arrangements.
The county Jail at Bennington came in
for considerable amount of unfav-
orable criticism and the gentlemen
making the examination drought that
they would not care to stay there.
There are very few but what entertain
the same views on this matters and it
matters but little what the Jail l.;
there are not many who are hankering
after an opportunity to make it per-
manent resort.
