tempted to commit suicide in his cell
Monday, Angelo Cerciello was SEN
fenced to be electrocuted last night for

prison In his attempt at suicide Ger
ciello had swallowed a solution of match
heads and water and according to the

5Cerciello had been permitted to smoke
in the death house where he had been

BLAME GERMAN SPY.
For Fire on Steamer That Destroyed
Nearly 300 Horses for Allies.

Norfolk, Va, Nov. ll.-Virtuallv all
Of the 800 horses on board the British
steamship Rembrandt were burned to
death when the ship took fire off the
Virginia Capes Monday, according 10 in
formation reaching here last night. The
Rembrandt was bound from Baltimore
to St Nazaire, France, and the animals
are understood to have been intended for
the armies of the allies.
1t was reported here last night that
Captain Edin OF the Rembrandt had
notified officials of the Lamport and Holt
line, owners OF the ship, that he had rea
son to believe the vessel was fired by
German spies who were members of
the crew. The captain is said to have
claimed that threats against the ship
were made before she steamed from Bal
timore Saturday. No confirmation of
these reports was available.
Last night Rembrandt was 10 miles off
Cape Henry, disposing of the carcasses
of the horses. She will proceed to New
port News for repairs. Forward COM
partments Of the ship are reported bad
ly damaged.
When the fire was discovered the ship
was 200 miles Off the eapes. The smoke
was so dense that the crew could not
reach the flames and the stampeded ami
mails were left TO their fate. The ships
hold was flooded and the matches closed,
smothering out the fire.

SHOT BUCK FROM AUTO.
Mrs. H. D. Gilson Had Novel Experience
in Williamstown Gulf

A deer hunting story somewhat out OF
the usual line is told in which the sue
eessful hunter was Mrs. H. ID. Gilson OF
Quechee and the place was Williamstown
gulf, few miles south of Williamstown
village. Mrs. Gibson, with Mr. ellison
and another man. was motoring through
the gulf toward Barre, carrying guns in
the hope that they might catch sight of
a deer along the route. On reaching the
gulf they proceeded slowly and were re-
warded with the sight of a large buck
bounding down one OF the steep hillsides
and directly in front of the automobile.
While the male members of the auto
mobile party were reaching for their
guns. Mrs. ellison fired and proved her
good craftsmanship by bringing down
the buck at the first shot. The animal
weighed about 250 pounds. The autoists
passed through the city last evening
with the carcass of the buck in the back
seat of their Cadillac car.

DEPUTY MORRISON GETS A BUCK
As Does Walter Driseoll on Herring Farm
in Moretown.

! Huntsmen on the old 'Biiah Herring
place in Moretown took two deer as toll
for their mornings efforts to-day. One
of the fortunate nimrods is Deputy Sher.
in A. NJ Morrison of Barre, who owns
the Herring place and who went to the
farm this morning bv automobile. Wal
ter Driscoll, a Graniteville quarryman, is
the other successful hunter. The deer
which the deputy shot weighed l75
pounds When Mr.. Morrison stopped at
the farm to-day deer hunting was far
ther from his mind than a trip TO New
Zealand. II was while he was standing
in the door of his barn that buck stole
silently out of the woods and began
browsing on some frozen apples in the
orchard. The deputy recently suffered
the amputation OF one leg, but he rea-
sons that a man with three peculiar sup
ports could not have bettered the time
he made in reaching for gun. One shot
sufiiced TO bring his quarry low. The
deer is TO be exhibited in one of the To-
cal markets.
The Graniteylle hunter planned TO
start for Moretown with DIR. f. II. Bail
ey al dsybreak. The doctor was unable
to 90, 80 Mr.. Driscoll set out for the
Herring place alone. He had been in the
woods but a few hours when he sighted
a fine buck. He wasted but a single
shot in killing the animal. Before the
deer was dressed it tipped the beam at
POO pounds. An abundance of cider ap-
pies on the Herring farm is ascribed ss
a reason for the prevalence Of 30 many
deer in that neighborhood. Before the
season opened three bucks and several
does were seen there within week.

Supreme Court.

The case of Anna j. Stacy of st. Al
bans against Charles l.. Dolan,and trus-
tee, of Burlington, a breach OF promise
suit in which the plaintiff was awarded
a verdict in Franklin county court last
spring was taken up in the Vermont

vened after recess taken Friday.

ant made an offer of marriage in 1909,
but that no date was set and it was after
December Is, 1913, that the defendant
told the plaintiff that he had changed
his mind and the plaintiff then caused
writ to be made and served.

and Rufus f. Brown of Burlington rep
resent the plaintiff and Warren Austin
of st. Adams the defendant.

Cattle

Davis, state cattle commissioner, yester-
day issued quarantine against the re-
ceiving of cattle in Vermont from any
other states, to be in effect until such

sued such quarantine. Maine has also
done likewise, as well as the Dominion
of Canada.
Maine, New Hampshire, Connecticut

ALLIES ADVANCED
NORTHWARD ON COAST
Took Possession of Lom-

Nieuport-The Advantage
Undoubtedly Lies with the
Germans at This Point in
Supreme Effort in Bel
gium

The German war machine has battered
its way into the Belgian town of Dix
nude. To-day's official French state
ment contains the admission that the al
lies were obliged to fall back from this
vantage point in the great battle for
possession of the eastern shore of the
British channel. As an offset The
French war office states that the allies
have advanced along the North sea coast,
pushing back the Germans and taking
possession of Lombaertzyde, small Del
gan town few miles northeast of Nieu-
port,
The capture of Dixmude was the first
indication of the new attack by Ger
mans, described as a supreme effort and
probably marking the turning point of
the war, had brought definite results.
Between Dixmude and Ypres, which lies
close to the French border, the fighting
has been the most intense since the Ger
mans elected at the opening of the weel,
to begin new onslaught with the help
of fresh troops and artillery.
The Berlin view of the situation is OPP
timistic, the latest official reports using
the words. good advances" for the first
time. Paris also is hopeful of the out
come in Belgium.
Few details of the fighting in the east
are permitted to reach the outside world. !
II is said, however, that the Russians
are employing new tactics, placing Their |
main reliance on their huge bodies of in |
fantry, rather than on their cavalry. |
There were further Indications to-day |
that the Turks were offering determined |
resistance to the Russian advance. An |
official Turkish statement laid claim TO |
considerable success. Heavy fighting |
continues on Servian soil. Japan is
celebrating the fall of Using Tau.
