subject of some debate in the house
and was finally adopted by vote OF
1873 to 81 much to the annoyance of Mr..
Hapgod of Peru who demanded yea
and nay vote which was refused. Mr..
Jones of Shrewsbury, in order to ex-
pedite matters and get ahead of the
gentleman from Peru moved reconsid-
Grafton which was agreed to but the
house felt differently about the matter
when they had to go on record by
the yea and nay vote demanded by
Markey of Peacham and the resolu-
ton was defeated by vote of SO to
92. So the Peruvian gentleman came
out on top of the heap on this propo-
sition.

UNIQUE EXPERIENCE
GAINED BY AUTOIST

Few motorists have Travelled 1000
miles every month and kept it up for
three years.
Such is the remarkable record made
by Hudson Owner Frank A. Grant
whose experience ever since he got his
first car four years ago, has been
unique.
He took delivery on Hudson four
cylinder, 33-horse power car IN
1911; after driving for more than a
year it was stolen. The police failed
to find the car so it was up to Mr.
Grant to get another. He had had
such success with his Hudson 33 that
he replaced it with another Hudson in
October, 1912.
In the last % months he has driven
his second Hudson 28,37O miles, and
has never had the engine down during
that time.

proper development of water power on
the streams Of the state through the
efforts of commission to be APP
pointed TO investigate the matter OF
storage reservoirs and other matters
along his line has passed the house.
The bill allows commissions to expend
$500 for clerk hire and $1,000 for ex-
pert engineering advice.
Fish and game legislation has taken
back seat in the face of the impor-
tant matter under discussion during
the past week, but the senate found
time to pass the measure requiring a
6O-ct. fishing license but with amend
ments which allows fishing on Lake
Champlain and Lake Memphremagog
without license. AS passed by the
house this bill did not exempt these
lakes from the license provision
The workman's compensation bill
which has pa sed the senate will prob
ably be acted upon by the house very
soon. The bill seems to meet the ap-
proval of those interested with the
exception of the provision requiring
employees TO bear a portion of the ex-
pense of the proposed liability insur-
ance which has met with considerable
opposition even among employers.
The senate has refused to pass the
bill abolishing the Office of attorney
genral and the question is probably
settled for this session but the weights
and measures proposition still hangs
/ fire The house refused to terminate
the present commissioners office but
the resolution TO cut down the expens-
es of the office is still under consider
tion.
The bill providing a lump sum SAL
airy of 1926 for members has been

HOOSICK FALLS FIRE
Damage Estimated at 100000. Help
Summoned From Nearby Towns

Hoosick Falls, N. Y, March %
This town was visited by the worst
fire in its history Saturday night, and
the damage is variously estimated at
from $25O,000 to 100000. The fire
destroyed three large block buildings
in the heart of the business section Of
the town, and it was not until well
toward midnight before the spread of
the flames was checked. The fire de-
partments Of North Adams, Mass,
Bennington, VT, and Cambridge, N. Y.
summoned by telephone to the Hoosick
Falls department, assisted in fighting
the fire.
The fire started about 7:30 in the
evening in the basement Of the Thorpe
drug store which is located in the
Thorpe building. II soon spread to the
Lurrie and Gabardino buildings which
are nearby, and all three buildings
were reduced to ashes before midnight.
In the Lurrie building, which was q
four-story brick structure, the Luirie
department store was located, and the
entire stock of this concern was de-
stroyed.

There were several stores in the 9th
er two building and nothing was saved
from any OF them. No one was hurt.
About dozen members Of the
Knights of Columbus. whose rooms
were on the top floor Of the Thorpe
building, were imprisoned by the
smoke, but were later rescued by the
firemen. The fire was the cause of
great excitement and several hundred
people came, by rail, automobile, and
trolley ear, to watch it.
Several families living in the upper
stories of the Thorpe block had narrow
escapes. The postoflice, located in the
Thorpe block, burned early. Six
stores, the Offices Of Dr. w. b. Put
nam and the residence of w. L. Owens
also were soon destroyed. Flying
sparks from the Thorpe block caught
the Dougherty hotel. All the guests
it was thought, escaped. Hoosick Falls
is 81 miles northeast Of Troy on the
Bo ton & Main railroad.

Image in Snow by Randolph Girl

Decided artistic temperament Is
shown in work done this winter by
Miss Christy Z. Williams of Linden
Lodge, Brattleboro. During her school
days Miss Williams did some sketch
ing with pencil and crayon, and this
winter she tried her hand at sculptor
ing in snow and clay, with marked
success.
For over a year Miss Williams, who
is Vermont girl, 22 years old and a
native of Randolph, has been a COM
panion at Linden Lodge of Miss M.
P. Auchincloss, sister-in-law Of Mr..
Colgate, the millionaire manufacturer
of toilet articles. After one Of the
snowstorms this winter Miss Williams
piled up a quantity of snow in front OF
Linden Lodge and in short time had
made a beautiful model of a young
woman's head. She never had at
tempted such thing before, and the
results were SDiltWlidb oDSVNiiN'"b'
Many persons admired the snow i'm
age and some were reminded Of the
snow angel wrought by the late Larkin
B. Mead Of Brattleboro, which brought
prominence to that afterwards famous
sculptor.
Later Miss Williams made another
image with equally satisfactory re-
suits. Since then she has made not
only snow images but figures in clay.
In her work she has not copied from
models, but has fashioned the figures
after her own ideas. Her mother died
when the daughter was 10 years old,
and the latter afterwards lived with
her grandparents. Her father is G. A.
Williams, mechanic in White River
Junction She has written several
short stories which have been publish

ated and how the cream should be
cooled so that it will keep in perfect

cream box insulated so that with q
small amount of ice cream may be
kept for several days even in the
warmest weather.
Plans are also given for the con
struction of ice houses, and such ques'
tions as variations in the patrons
cream test, overrun, etc, are dicussed

When the railroad was run through
this valley Mr.. Orvis was the first ex-
press messenger to run on the trains.
Mr.. Orvis was one of the old line
Democrats in politics and there were
very few men who were better posted
in the political history of the United
States than he.
He always took an active part in
the affairs of his town and had held
different public Offices, serving this vii
lage as postmaster under the two ad-
ministrations of President Cleveland
In his younger days Mr.. Orvis was
an ardent sportsman and was always
interested in anything pertaining tc
the outdoor life, and up to the last two
/ wears of his life he loved to go back
/ to the mountains for vacation. II
was in this way that he came ultlm-
ately to commence the manufacture
Of fishing tackle.
A man of scholarly attainments he
was a charming conversationallst anc
was possessed of wonderful memory
which lasted up to the very last. II
was but few short weeks since tina,
he sang several verses of an old song
which some passing conversation hac
called to his mind.

up il is much like its predecessors but
it seems to face rather unusual oppor-
tunity on account of the Importance of
the business that is to come before it..
| Ii meets at time when there is a
very insistent demand for economy and
efficiency in the conduct of state bust
ness. II has the opportunity OF making
considerable economy through the abol-
ition OF a part of the offices that have
been created in response to temporary
demands. offices that have materially
increased the expenses of the state and
to the layman seem more expensive
than beneficial. The state to-day is en-
gagged in some lines OF work that it
has no right TO tax its citizens for, and
has some officials who nave not accom-
plished enough in their departments 10
warrant their continuance. We believe
that some lines of work should bc
discontinued and in other lines the
amount TO be expended should be limit
cd by statute.
A great opportunity for constructive
work also exists. The Republican party

reorganization of the public school sys-
TEN, a revision Of the statutes 10 make

changes are also two large subjects TO be
