|N|TALY RUSH
TO WAR FRONT
ALONG WITH WORkMEN ARE
THE ARIsToCRACY AND MID
DIE CLASS CITIZENS RUSHING
TO WAR.

Milan, via Paris, May 27.-The gov
ernment yesterday opened an enroll
ment bureau for volunteers under
the age of 30 and over 40. Men be-
tween these ages can be called TO
the coors. but if younger or older
they cannot. The idea is to give
those who cannot be called an OPP
portunity to 90 to the front.
In about twenty-four hours 1000
men had volunteered. Ninety-five ner
cent of them wanted TO go to the
front at once. In addition to work
men. these volunteers were composed
of some members of the aristocracy
and large numbers of the middle
classes.
One of the regulations is that a
minor to enlist must have the con
sent of his parents. One woman nam
ed Turchi Ottaviani came forward
and presented her son. Carlo, aged L.
To the recruiting officer she said:
Take him. ! am willing" There
upon the crowd cheered her.
Among other young men who hay e
volunteered are Walter Toscanin. son
OF the well known musical condrctor,
and Mario Segantini, son of The
painter.
Among the men over 40 to join the
colors is Count Domenico Michel Of
Venice, aged SO. He is a former OIL
iicer of cavalry and said that to 90
to the front he would gladly serve as
a private.

INC MACHINE
PLANS OF A BLIND GERMAN Exc
CUTED BY c. W. RITTER OF
THIS CITY WITH COMPLETE
SUCCESS. STILL IN USE.

Thirteen years ago Jno. Stein a bllnt
German who suffered the added af
! Fiction of lost arm, arrived in this
! city and visited the only machine shoI
here which was conducted by G. w
Ritter, who is still engaged in the
same line of work, and asked that
| typewriter or rather writing ma
chine be made for him after plans
worked out by himself.
Mr.. Ritter was somewhat surprised
at his request, but as he is Teuton
himself, stated that he would make
the effort, and asked to see the plans
Imagine his surprise when Stein told
him that the plans were never put on
paper, but were all in his brain ready
to be let forth whenever man was
found who would do the work accord
ing to his directions.
Mr.. Ritter told him to get busy and
tell what he wanted, and after he had
been told of his ideas saw at once
that it was not "a crazy Dutchman
after all that he was taking to, and
suggested that work begin on the ma
chine the next day.
After weeks of patient toll in which
Stein sat beside the bench where Mr.
Ritter was working, directing every
rasp of the file or fashioning of a
screw or ratchet, the machine was
finally finished, and when a piece Of
paper was placed in its proper place
Stein began to write and pronounced
the machine absolutely perfect for his
use.
The writing or rather, the printing
for blind readers is after the idea OF
| the Morse alphabet with dots anc
dashes, used to perforate the paper
so that they may be felt and read
! by touch. This the machine does per
fectly, and after thirteen years it was
in the city again yesterday for some
minor repairs, the first since it was
built
Mr. Stein is now a resident of Mil
Creek. where he has some property
and takes great pleasure in praisine
/ the efficiency of Mr.. Ritter as a
mechanic, as he visited a great many
cities in the north in hopes to get
some one interested in his plans tC
build a machine for him. and until he
found his German friend in Ardmore
he had not succeeded, as they thought
his plans altogether too vague to at
tempt to follow Il,

BEAUTIFUL BARRE AND EAST
BARRE WOMEN

The Secret Of Their Increasing Charm
1t is really surprising that in such a
short time there should be so marked an
improvement in the appearance of so
many Barre and East Barre ladies, but
it is not surprising when the cause OF
this improvement is known. And there
is no great mystery about it after all.
Drop in . ,st any day now at the Red
Cross Pharmacy, or Frank Roark's, or
S. C. Voodry & Co.'S, Cabot, and you are
likely TO see one of the clerks wrapping
up box of the little tablets that do so
much to improve the appearance of ones
complexion. Bright eyes, rudy glow,
and a complexion free from pimples, sal
lowness and moth spots, may be had by
every wom-n who will take one or two
of SEAVER'S LAXATIVE TONIC TAB.
LETS at bedtime. These tablets contain
dandelion and other purely vegetable eX-
tracts that are known to have a selective
atcion for skin affections, and being both
a laxative and tonic they quicken the
circulation, open the pores and encour-
age the action of the bowels, stimulate
the liver, enrich the blood and at the
same time cure biliousnes. sick headache,
and chronic constipation. Try them.
They cost but 25c a box, and once used
their merits cannot be concealed.-Advt.

JUDGE RELEASED BOY.
Who Had Been Held on Suspicion in
Fair Haven Robbery.

Rutland, Feb. 2.-Victor Farnsworth
of Castleton. age 10 years, who was ar
rested few days ago on the charge Of
burglarizing the Ransom store in Cas-.
Teton last week, having since been at
the county Jail, was given hearing
Yesterday in city court and was released
by Judge i. G. Swinnerton, who did
not consider the evidence of the state
sufficient to hold the lad. j. C. Jones
was counsel for the respondent and
State 3 Attorney @. " Pouin appeared
as prosecuting officer.
The state witnesses We're r. G.. Ran
som and Deputy Sherifrs Ricei of this
city and Carl A. Beach of Castleton.
1t was shown the store was entered by
some person who pried off board which
had been nailed over a broken window
and that $50 in money was taken from
a cigar box which also contained sew
eral street railway ticket books, the
tickets not being disturbed. Suspicion
fell upon Farnsworth for some reason
and the officers found that Just after
they had been to investigate the bur-
glary he had gone to Fair Haven. He was
arrested there and was searched but
nothing was found on his person which
would enlighten the officers
There were tracks in the snow UNI
der the window which had been entered
by the burglar. Officer Ricci noticed
that the tracks were made by man
wearing a rubber moccasin and, taking
of one of the moccasins which Farms
worth had on, the officer found that it
matched the tracks in the snow One
Of Farnsworth's moccasins was worn
badly at the outside of the heel and the
officer discovered that the moccasins
which made the track in the snow show,
ed this same kind OF wear Deputy
Sheriff Beach corroborated Mr. Ricci's tes-
timony.
Attorney Jones brought out the fact
on REORGANIZATION that the officers
did not know whether the tracks were
made at the time Of the burglary or
some other time.

RUTLAND STORE Quilted.
When Plumber Started Fire While at
Work in Basement.

Rutland Feb. 23.--The large grocery
stock carried by the PaTkhurst store
on the north side OF Center street was
ruined by smoke and water yesterday
afternoon when the wooden building
occupied by it. a two-story structure,
was Quilted BY fire which was caused by
a plumber who was repairing a kero-
sene oil tank. Almost the instant the
fire started there was a dense cloud OF
smoke rolling out OF the doors and win.
dows that filled the street so as 20 i'm
pede traffic The rapidity with which
the fire gained Roadway and the density
of the smoke almost at the beginning
was nearly unbelievable 10 persons who

George T. l.. Badlam, owner OF the busi-
ness, and Mr.. Miner, are well protected
by insurance.
Mr.. Badlam said that plumber was
putting a new bottom in an oil tank
when the trouble started. There was
no oil in the tank and be could not ac-
count for the accident. George Dupre
Of West Rutland, the man who was
working on the tank, was considerably
burned about the head, face and hands
and his hair was singed. He was not in
condition TO talk. saying merely that
without warning there was fash Of
fame for which he could not account.
The FIRE spread so rapidly in the cellar
of the store where the tank was 10.
Gated among empty boxes and various
merchandise, that he had difficulty in
getting out. lie was able 30 walk 20
