The annual county convention of the
Addison County Y. M. C. A. will be
held on May %. Dr. David G. Ladshaw
of New York City will be one of the
speakers at the banquet which will be
served by the Woman S Auxiliary to the
local Y. M. c. A. in the evening.
One of the topics which will be dis
cussed at the afternoon session of the
convention will be "a Hospital for Ad-
Olson County," Hon. j. E. Weeks will
preside over this meeting and many OF
the prominent citizens of the county
have already pledged themselves to be
present. If this meeting proves.to be
as successful as the afternoon session
of last year at which the question "A
County Agent" was discussed it will be
a day we'll worth remembering in the
history of this section of Vermont.

BRANDON GETS SCHOOL.

The commission on the State school
for Feeble Minded children has pur-
chased the Forest Park farm of the
late |. N. Chase of Brandon as the site
tor the institution. The price paid was
$l3, 600. The farm is a good one, well
located little south of Brandon village.
1t contains 312 acres and has many large
buildings.
This institution is expected to save
the State of Vermont many thousands
of dollars annually. 1t has been the
custom for years past to send feeble
minded children to institutions of other
States, and the practice has been ex-
pensive. The institutions harboring the
class of children mentioned from Yer
mont are already taxed to their capacity
and a school for feeble minded children
has become a practical necessity for
this State. When the newly purchased
farm is ready there will be about one
hundred patients transferred there at
once.

Strict Quarantine Observed.

lives with his grandmother, Mrs. John
Halnon, on Court St. The boys par
ents are in Bennington, N. H., and he

teacher of the sixth grade, and three
girls from the college.
The boy who has the disease has been
slightly i'll since last Thursday and has

CHEMISTRY BUILDING FIRE
Checked by Prompt Action of VII
lsge Fire Department and
Students. Work Goes on
as Usual.

Last Saturday morning, little be-
fore eight o'clock, students in Painter
Hall observed smoke issuing from a
window in the third story of the
chemical building and from the venti-
lators in the roof. They Immediately
gave the alarm by telephone and rushed
to the building, which was unlocked by
Prof. Harrington, whose attention had
been called to the fire by Mrs. H. H.
Bryant of College ST.
A large number of students imme
diately entered the building, unwound
the fire hose from the stand-pipes on
each floor, and soon had streams on the
suppy room on the third floor, where
the fire was located. In the mean time
Judge Weeks had despatched the viii
lage fire apparatus, which arrived in
short order.
The fire was soon under control and
confined entirely to the small room
where it originated. The wood work
and contents of that room were COM
pletely destroyed, the principal other
damage being by smoke to the large
general laboratory. The advantage of
eproof construction, the room being
lined with brick and ceiled with metal
lath, was demonstrated.
The burning of the chemicals made
the fire a difficult one to handle, two
students, Luke E. Bicknell '16 and
Harold NJ Davis II being overcome by
the fumes.
AS soon as the danger was over a
large force of students were set to
sweeping the water from the rooms and
damage to the lower f1ooors was largely
prevented.
By hard work on the part of Prof.
McGilton and his assistants the building
was put in order and work went on
Monday morning as usual. The loss was
fully covered by insurance through the
agencies of j. M. Burke and Judge
Weeks. The adjusters have engaged
Mr.. Thomas w. Rogers of Brandon,
who constructed the building, to make
the repairs. The system of the college
in keeping an inventory of supplies
made possible an accurate statement of
the loss in chemicals and the prompt re-
newal of the supplies.

It ran this way:

For one thing, I can't have my shoes

every local body that has ever tried
to regulate the companies has found
when it wants important information
it has to be gotten in some way from
the outside of the company offices.
There is a good deal Of guessing as
to why the Tribune, in it's straphang-
ers' crusade, never takes a whack at
the elevated companies. The news
writer's, editorial writer's and B. L. T.
of the Tribune are all the time slam
ming their slapsticks on the head Of
President Busby of the Chicago sur
face lines. What everybody knows is
that conditions on the elevated lines
are just as rotten as on the surface
lines. Why doesn't the Tribune swat
Sam insult, head of the elevated COM
panies, as hard as it swats BUsby?
Is there any kind of connection in
the fact that William G. BeaIe, at
torney for the elevated roads, is a
trustee of the Tribune.

MIR. BURKE'S PLATFORM.

We herewith reproduce in full
the platform Of Hon. Porteus R.
Burke, announcing his candidacy
for Lieutenant Governor of the
State Of Louisiana at the primar-
les to be held on the 25th of Jan
uary. Before consenting to make
the announcement Of his entry
into State politics, the gentleman
was assured such support through
out the State that we have no
hesltancy in saying that his cleo
ton is almost assured. Mr.. Burke
is young gentleman that is wor-
thy any honor that the people of
Louisiana can confer upon him
and even many of the strongest
supporters Of the Progressive
party in the last Congressional
campaign in this District have
written hin letters announcing
their delight in seeing submit his
name as one Of the candidates for
this particular office:
:" First: Prohibitions believe
in local option with the parish as
the unit, and am opposed to state
wide prohibition.
Second: | believe that each
session Of the General Assembly
should be divided into two periods
One for the introduction of bills
and the other, after, a reasonable
interval to enable public discus
sion. for their final consideration
Third: I believe in a short
| ballot with placing Of response
blllty upon the proper officials in
the conduct of the affairs of the
state.
Fourth: l believe that the fee
system Of paying officials sbould
be supplanted, as far as far as
practicable. by salaries.
Fifth: I believe that the nri-
mary election laws should be so
amended and modified as to re-
qurre all parties to make their
nominations on the same dav ard |
IN the same manner. and the said /
laws should be further amended I

u announcing the platform of the
party, by convention called for

IRE made. and the various candi-
lates should be required to stand

Sixth: / believe that a con-

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
