may have an opportunity to become
cured Of the liquor habit The man is 81
years old.
Daley said: 81 often had liquor to
drink. generally whiskey, while in the
shop at the house of correction. 1t is
easy to get it over there and always
will be SO long as the prisoners are al
lowed to work outside. Some of them
go out in the morning and do not re-
turn until at night and it is not hard
for them to obtain a supply OF booze
A fellow named Neddo used to buy ii
somewhere for 80 cents pint and sell
it to the prisoners for 81. The corridor
man knew to whom he was to sell it on
special day and when Neddo came in
at night with bottle or two in his
clothes it was easy for him to slip it
to the man who wanted drink"
Daley was first sent to the house OF
correction from Newport for a year for
breaking Jail He was paroled but on the
same day was arrested for intoxication
and went back to serve his long time
sentence. Ten days ago Judge Swimmer
ton had him for intoxication. Yesterday
the local police got him again.

ALLEGED BURGLAR ARRAIGNED.
He Was Captured at Point of Unloaded
Weapon.

Brattleboro, March 1.-THE man who
attempted to burglarize the store of Per-
lev f.. Crosier at Halifax at 2 o'clock
Tuesday morning and who was caught
by Mr.. Crosier and his son, Paul, was
held under $1,000 bail by Judge F. j..
Barber in the municipal court yesterday
for the April term of the county court.
He was taken to Newfane yesterday
afternoon by Sheriff G. e. Mann. The
fact that the postoffice of Halifax is in
the Crosier store and that part of the
money the man took was government
funds makes it probable that he will be
tried in the federal court.
He is held under the name of John T..
Anderson, that name having been found
on various papers on his person. These
include receipts for electric light service
at 3 Central street, Springfield, Mass,
pawn tickets made out in the same name
and cards also bearing that name.
The prisoner absolutely refuses to tell
anything about himself. The only thing
he has said is that he came to Brattle
boro on a freight train about s o'clock
Monday evening and walked to Halifax,
arriving there about midnight. Those
1HHlllfdT Win Tile tOHultioHS VI lnc touuS
declare that such walk in the limit
of time named by the prisoner is beyond
human possibility.
States Attorney A. V. d. Piper yes
terday morning communicated with the
Springfield police in al effort to learn
something concerning the prisoner.
A highly interesting feature of the
capture of the burglar was told yester
day in Brattleboro by Perley z. Crosier
He said that when he and his son, Paul,
went into the store, although one had a
rifle and the other a shotgun, the only
ammunition for the weapons was within
reach of the man they were seeking to
capture. He threw up his hands on com
mand, but, unknown to him, the weapon
with which he was covered was not
loaded. 1t was not until he had sur
rendered and been bound that either Mr.
Crosier or his son found opportunity to
load their weapons.
Postoffiee Inspector Sharp came to
Brattleboro yesterday in connection with
the case.

TYPHOID ON THE BORDER.
Secretary of Vermont State Board Of
Health Investigates.

Burlington, March l2.--Dr. G. i. Dali
ton, secretary of the state board OF
health, has returned from st. Johns, z
O., where he went to investigate the cpl.
demic of typhoid fever reported to be
raging in that vicinity, with regard to
the possibility of the disease spreading
into Vermont.
DIR. Dalton found conditions much bet
ter than had been reported. Instead OF
1000 cases the number was variously es-
timated by local physicians at from 10
to so. The epidemic had been ON since
last November and reached its maxi
mum in February.
The source ia without doubt, said DR.
Dalton, from the water supply of the
town which is taken from the Richelieu
river, the outlet of Lake Champlain. The
sewage disposal is not far from the
water supply, also.
Typhoid vaccine has been freely used
and the Canadian soldiers at the bar
racks in the town have been inoculated,
besides many of the townspeople.
There is no local health board. the
provincial health department being in
charge.
DIR. Da.ton found that the village was
also in the midst of widespread cpl
demic of grip in severe form, there being
at least 200 cases reported
There is no cause for alarm at present
according to the secretary, that the ty-
phoid will spread to Vermont.

Cascarets, OF merely forcing passage

Stop having bowel wash-day. Let
Cascarets thoroughly cleanse and regu-

LITTLE BELGIUM.

By William Brewster OIeson.
| Belgium, little Belgium!
Seated snugly by the sea,
With thy busy marts OF gain,
| And thy waving fields of grain,
And the pledge of every nation
To preserve thy neutral station.
Surely nought shall harass thee.
Belgium, ancient Belgium!
Oft thy soil has choked with blood
Oft have tyrants without shame
Burned thy martyrs in the flame:
Oft thy knights have dropped in battle;
Matrons, maids, been slain like cattle
By an Alva and his brood.
Belgium, patient Belgium!
'Gainst thy will, invading thee, -
Oft has Europe flung her hosts,
Mad with lust, within thy coasts.
Spreading terror down the ages
Stereotyping history's pages
With the awful infamy.
Belgium, startled Belgium!
Seeing visions, foregleams dread
OF the stalking ghoul of war,
OF the sword above the law,
OF proud Ahab, in his llaukur, ..s...
Saying: Yield to me, or slaughter!
AS his legions press ahead.
Belgium, bravest Belgium! y
Choosing honor, come what may,
Back the challenge thou did'st fling,
Fearing neither host nor king. - -..
Thou hast heroes yet within 4 ee,
May thy valor victory win thee,
While we glory in thy day.

this vast stretch of country il would be
difficult for the Germans to advance

The plan of the German generals Is

number OF the small and unfOrtified
towns along the border, advance quite
deeply into German territory, and then
for the German army to take them on
the flank, harass them on three sides
and drive them toward the Baltic or
to the south This plan is calculated
to destroy much of the Russian army
and shatter its forward movement,
though to do so the Germans will have
to sacrifice the moral and sentimental
