MONTPELIER AGAIN IN
FLOOD DANGER.

Montpelier, April 20. Starting early
Sunday morning the Winooski river,
with the tributary streams flowing in
has been swoolen and the meadows
from this city to past Richmond are
covered with several feet of water,
many houses being completely sur
rounded. The steady rain of the past
"a hours coupled with the VAIN
weather of the past few days has
started the snow on the hills which in
some places is reported to be from four
to seven feet deep.
The stores in this city Sunday night
commenced to fill and today from two
to ten inches f water is in many of the
cellars with the water steadily rising.
Unless the downpour of rain ceases
befrre night there is grave danger of
one of the W, rst floods in the history of
the State.
Nearly all the roads in the country
are impossible and many small bridges
have been swept away.
Two dams at North Montpelier owned
by the Little Wooden Manufacturing
company, were swept away this after
noon. Four men, employed in the
basement of the mill, had to hurry in
making their escape when the first
dam burst. Aside from that done at
North Montpelier by the bursting of the
dams no other damage had been re-
ported up to late hour this evening.
The Winooski and North branch
were steadily rising tonight with no
indication of falling for several hours
as large amout of snow is reported to
be in the woods.

Mad at Paint

25c gallon for paint is about $3.50
on the average job. and lots of men
waited last year for that; but they didn't
reckon; they got mad; wouldn't pay it.
There are times to get mad and re.
fuse to pay; but when ones property
needs protecting is no time to get mad
and not paint.
Besides, it costs more to get mad and
wait than to paint.
Getting mad doesn't do any good to
your property; paint does it good by
keeping out water; no water no rot; no
paint, some water and rot; and a little
rot is more than enough to make man
liberal towards his painter ami paint.
Paint costs not a cent. All the paint
in the world, so long as it keeps-out
water, costs not a cent.

 The plot of '"The Worsted Man" is a pleasing and amusing one in it. self. Act l is the office of sum- mer hotel at Highland Hills, New Hampshire. Seven forlorn maidens lament the fact that there is no man about to make life worth while In the midst of their woe, Patience, an ingenious young woman appears and suggests that to solve the man ques- tion they shall knit a man, pour some of the Highland Hills life giving wa ters into him and so bring him to life. The act ends very happily and hopefully.
 Act presents the Worsted Man as finished and with much fear and misgiving upon the part of the young women he is successfully brought to
  ever in their extremity, the girls are much pleased.
 In Act 3 the Worsted Man has ac quired the habit of flirting and car ries on so strenuously with all the girls that they are forced to unravel him. The ending is one of much fun where the seven forlorn maidens bemoan their fate and where SamDO the negro bell boy causes much laugh ter with his clever acting.
 The proceeds of the play go into the funds of the Tempe High School Athletic association, and will defray the expenses of the baseball, track, and commercial teams to Tucson dur ing university week.
