$500 Miles With Broken Neck.

Sunbrowned and apparently light
hearted, George c. Enslow of Trenton,
Mo-, a native of Chittenden, who a year
ago the ninth of next month suffered a
broken neck in an accident on a railroad
train, is with his family, visiting friends
in Rutland and other towns in that sec
ton of Vermont, having bumped over
l, 800 or more miles of all kinds of roads
between Missouri and the Green
Mountain State in an automobile in
which a large part of the daylight of
every "a hours is spent Notwithstanding
that fall or sudden violent jolt might
end his life at any moment.
Mr.. Enslow with his party, consisting
of Mrs. Enslow, formerly Miss Elva P.
Halliday of Pittsford, their daughter,
Miss Lola p. Enslow, and Albert l..
Couple of Trenton are for the present
at the home of Mrs. Enslow's sister,
Mrs. Edward j. Sawyer, and Mr..
Sawyer, at 118 Library avenue, Rutland.
Eleven years ago Mr.. and Mrs.
Enslow went west and at the time the
former was hurt he was fireman on the
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad.
In attending to his work, he bent for
ward and a defective coal HEAVIER struck
him on the head, fracturing the
third bony process of the spinal column.
He was taken to his home and for two
months lay with his head in a plaster
cast.
Then he was moved to st. Luke's hos
pital in Chicago, where he remained for
another six weeks. 1t was Judged i'm
possible to operate in any way to better
his condition and all that could be done
was to wait for nature to do her best.
While in st. Luke's hospital a sort of
harness or brace, fitting around his
chm, head and shoulders, was made.
This serves to hold his head and neck in
position and to some extent break the
jar as he moves about.
They will spend the greater part OF
the summer in Rutland, Brandon anc
other. nearby towns, motoring to places
of interest throughout western Yer
mont.

STATE NEWS.

In passing the automobile of John
Dow of Williamstown, the machine of
William McKensie of Websterville,
containing 10 persons, was precipitated
down a 10-foot bank and landed bottom
up, partly supported by a large birch
tree, at a narrow curve between the
Smith stock farm and the Gale farm on
the Williamstown road Sunday after
noon and although the machine was
badly smashed not one of the half-score
of people was seriously injured. To the
fact that the top was up is ascribed the
remarkable escape, as the top caught
the occupants and sheltered them from
contact with trees or from landing in
two feet of water.
Several thousand lake and salmon
trout were emptied into the WinoOski
river in Montpelier the other day UNI
intentionally. They were bound from
the State hatchery at Roxhury to Orleans
and Barton but were so affected by the
hot weather that many died, and to save
what remained they were returned to
the water. Half of the IS can were
taken to the destination. The shipment
contained 80, 900 fry.
Henry Kidder was probably fatally
injured Monday while at work in Fitch
burg division %roundhouse at Bellows
Falls. He sustained a fracture of the for
ward part of the skull when his head was
caught between a brake-srm and a driv-
ing wheel on the engine on which he was
working. 1t is not known how he hap
pened to get caught. He was taken tc
the Rockingham hospital. Mr.. Kidder
has worked in Bellows Falls several
years and his home is in Ellenville, y. Y.

TRY TO FINISH
BY JUNE first
LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM WILL BE
MAPPED OUT WITH VIEW TO
EARLY ADJOURNMENT.

Washington, Feb. 2.-Extension Of
arbitration treaties, antitrust legisla-
tiona rural credits enhancement
through the establishment of land
mortgage banks for farmers; legisla-
tion authorizing the government to
build or purchase railroad in Alaska,
and revision of the immigration laws
appear today as guide posts for admin
istration leaders in the present ses-
sion of Congress.
Though many other subjects are be-
ing pressed for consideration, leaders
realize that a new administration can
not reform the whole statutory struc-
ture Of the government in day. To
complete their program, they appreci-
ate that continuation of party suprem-
acy is necessary and that reelection
of a Democratic Senate and House
next fall is more important than a
long session Of Congress choked with
hastily considered legislation Presi-
dent Wilson is known to share this
view.
Increasing the necessity. for early
party activity is the seventeenth con-
stitutional amendments, which com,
! mands the people to elect their own
United States Senators. Hence the
Senate cannot, as of old, sit content
in Washington, while members of the
| House strain to get into their home
districts. Senators must stand shoul,
der to shoulder with members Of the
House and make joint appeal to the
| people for votes.
| So with the congressional campaign
rapidly approaching, the pet measures
of many loyal Democrats must be
postponed. Besides regular depart
mental legislation and supply bills
some of the subjects being urged fol
action are equal suffrage, prohibition
of the liquor traffic, guarantee of bank
deposits, government regulation OF
stock exchanges and many others.
June having been set as the possible
date of adjournment, party leaders in
tend soon to map out a program oi
work for the remainder of the session
White House conferences on this sub
ject probably will be held this week.

CUTTING AFFRAY Y.
in RESTAURANT
,. W. ESTES RECEIVED LONG CASH
IN THIGH AND ACCUSES
TOM SMITH.

In a mix-hp at the BonTon restau.
rant about 2 o'clock Sunday morning
o. w. Estes received deep
cash across one of his thighs, wound
that though quite deep and which in
wolves some of the musclar ligaments
is not dangerous or likely to leave the
wounded man a cripple.
1t was reported that the cutting
was done by Tom Smith, a young
man who has been here in the horse
trading business, When seen by
a News representative Sunday after
noon Smith denied that he had any
thing to do with the assault, adding
that some one of quite crowd in the
restaurant at the time did the cutting.
Smith gave as his version of the affair
that he was in the restaurant about
2 o'clock in the morning when Mr..
Estes came in that some one in the
place invited himself, Estes and one
other party to take drink and as they
stepped behind a partition to drink
he replied in kind Estes drew a pistol.
Thereupon he went out the rear door,
leaving his hat behind. When he re.
turned through the front door of the
building to get his hat, Smith says he
was accosted by Estes with the inquiry
as to why he (Smith) had cut him. In
answer to this inquiry, Smith says he
denied having done the cutting and
he still denies it, but claims he does
not know who did it.
Estes tells an entirely different
story, saying that his car broke down
on Bay street and after working on it
for some time he left it and walked
down town, going directly to the Bon
Ton restaurant for the purpose of wash
ing his hands, that while at the lava
tory with his hands wet, Tom Smith
come up by his side and without the
slightest warning stuck knife in his
thigh, gave it jerk, cutting a deep
cash in his leg and then ran away. He
states further that Smith did not re-
turn voluntarily on a hat hunt, but
that when he come back he was in the
custody of Officer Sheehan, who
brougt him in for Identification as the
man who did the cutting. Estes claims
that it was at this time that he cursed
Smith, and denies having spoken Q
word to him prior to the alleged as
sault with the knife.
! Charges for assault and battery were
preferred against both Estes ant
Smith in the city court this morning
but because Estes was unable to bt
present the hearing was postponed
until Saturday next.
