IL. Lester Jones, one OF west Claren-
don's oldest residents, was found dead
in his barn March II, having probably
died the night before while doing the
chores. He was not missed until morn
ing by his wife, who is very deaf and
also very feeble. She supposed he had
come in and, as it had been his usual
custom to sleep in a chair, she retired.
On not finding him in the morning, she
went for help.
A burglar forced an entrance to
the basement of the Vermont Fruit
store in the Henderson block, Barre,
early Friday sometime, picked his
way up the cellar stairs and collected
So in small change from two money re-
t%ainers. Other loose and portable
articles. removed from the store included
a bundle of cigars, odd samples of
fruit and confectionery. Fraqueli e.
Vennetti are the principal losers, al
though Miss Angie Vennetti lost a
pocketbook containing 81, as a result
of the break.
Raymond II. Shaw, who has been for
some time operating an amature wire
less telegraphy plant at his home in

flashes of messages sent to each other

off Newport News, Va, where the
German ship Prinz Eitel Friedrich is
locked for repairs. The messages were
in code and could not be deciphered.
Mr.. Shaw has a ship register in which
he obtained the identification of. the

An early morning fire in the Boston
Fruit Store in Barre, owned by Mrs.

equally divided between the stock of
fruit, tobacco and groceries, and the
building, which is owned by Mrs. c. E.
Bolster. Mrs. Colombo's loss is covered
by insurance which she carries in the
Robinson and McAlister agency. Just
what would have been the outcome of
the fire but for it's chance discovery by
Ralph Lawless. who happened to pass
the building while delivering milk, is
wholly problematical. Lawless turned
in a general alarm from box p at 5:35
o'clock.
The DuXburY town hall, located at
DuXbury CorneI, just across the river
from Waterbury village was destroyed
by fire early Monday afternoon, to-
gether with part of its contents. The
loss will be in the n~eighborhood of
50. 600, and there is some insurance.
The fire was discovered at 1890 o'clock
by Frank Broadwell and word was at
once communicated to B.. f. Hartt's
home. At that time the flames had
made so much Roadway that little
could be done to save the structure. so
the efforts of the volunteers were
turned toward taking out some of the
contents and to saving property near
by. Fire caught on the buildings of J.
+. Somerville and John Weir, but was
easily eXtinguished. Some of the con-
tents of the town hall were removed to
safe places.
