from Death by Drowning

Mary Watts, seven years old, who
lives with her parents at go Bank
street, was rescued from browning
in the Morris canal yesterday after
noon by Frank Hess, of 9S Sixteenth
street.
The child, with several companions,
walked from High street down the
bath as far as Plane street. In some
manner she stumbled and the frantic
screams of the other children at
tracted the attention of Hess, who
was passing. He waded into the
water and rescued Mary, who was
more frightened than injured, owing
to the quick action of her rescuer.

EXTRAORDINARY COINCIDENCE
Bill Hodge had been delighted
when he secured the job of boots"
at a commercial hotel, and for the
first two days his life passed smooth
ly enough. In fact, he thought he
had tumbled into a sort of perpetual
picnic after the rough life Of a farm
laborer.
But on the third morning things
started to go all wrong. AS he sat
dejectedly shining his own boots, the
bell of No. SO rang loud and long.
Bill hurried upstairs, to find a
furious old gentleman awaiting his
arrival.
Look here, you foolp' he roared.
You've left one black and one brown
shoe outside the door,
Dear, dear" said Bill mournfully.
cts most extraordinary! This is the
second time that has happened this
morning!"

HOW IT HAPPENEp

A certain football club had receiV-
ed it's first reverse of the season.
This was the more CALLING when
the defeated ones reflected that their
conquerors had absolutely no preten-
sions to "class," being, on paper at
least, the weakest team in the dis
trict.
Returning to headquarters after
the match, there was one man who
seemed to feel the defeat more keen
ly than anyone else. He was the
trainer of the team.
How did it all happen, Benz" ask
ed a supporter who had been unable
to attend the match.
Student" growled the trainer.
VERY sudden!''
yes; but how came we to lose?"
This way" replied Ben. For
eighty-nine minutes out of the ninety
our fellows had been showing the
spectators how to play football Then
one of the other chaps bounced on
the ball and showed our fellows how
to score! That's all!''

the island. HcTe'is a quaint hotel

The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1914-07-17

A proposal has been made in the state
OF Missouri to bond the state for $50
100000 for building good roads, the pro-
posal being advanced under the initiative
and referendum law; but there is some
suspicion, backed by the opinion of the
states executive, that the proposal Is
made on such grand scale in order to
kill other pending good roads PROPOSE
tions. il being held that where the voters
are called upon TO pick the desirable out
of lot of undesirable proposals they
will vote down the whole lot. For n
state no larger than Vermont, bonding
for s5o,Ooo,0eo for good roads would be
considered an unheard of proposal, but in
the case Of Missouri it does not seem so
badly out of proportion to the needs,
inssmuch as the area OF that state is
very large. Possibly there is some merit
in the Missouri proportion after all, in
spite of the governors cry that the law
is proposed in order to kill of other pro-
posed good roads measures.
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1914-07-17

Secretary Wilson of the department of
labor made good selection in the choice
of Walter W. Husband az one of two
conciliators to settle the strike of LOO
textile workers in the city Of Atlanta,
Ca inasmuch as Mr., Husband has a
temperament just suited to that kind OF
duty and, moreover spirit OF fairness
which will cause him to seek the best
solution for both sides concerned in the
controversy. When he was newspaper
man back in Vermont, Mr.. Husband had
a general repute as the guardian of the
dove of peace, or at least as the potential
guardian, and we doubt not that during
his stay in Washington he has added to
those qualifications which would aecen-
tuate that repute. Therefore, if Mr..
Husbands fellow eonciliator is likewise
equipped we look for prompt and sat

in Atlanta.

million dollars, so that the amount eth
err in hand or in sure prospect will be
over 100000, with some additions COM
ing along as the subscriptions arrive
from far distant points. The feeling
that enough has been raised is held in
and about Boston, where the public is in
closest touch with the situation and cog.
infant Of the needs of the people of the
stricken communityi and those people
more distant from Salem must perforce
take their idea of the needs from those
in and about Boston. Since, therefore,
it is coming to be quite generally be-
lieyed there that the country has risen
sufficiently to its duty in assisting Sa-
lem, it would seem to be proper to can
eel further efforts TO raise money Just
as the village of Bellows Falls did a
week ago on getting direct word that
more money was not needed. Indeed, it
would seem TO be incumbent on those
directly in charge of the relief work IN
Salem to send out definite announcement
that Salem henceforth can get along on
its own resources, providing, OF course,
that conditions are as they are supposed
to be through representations made by
those not officially authorized to make
the announcement. The generosity OF
the people should not be oyer'taxed just
because it shows itself to be willing to
render aid to community in distress.
