MADE GOOD SHOWING.
Rrattleboro Golfers Well Pleased with
Tournament at Bennington.

The three Brattleboro boys who took
part in the state golf tournament -
Onslow Thompson, Joseph G. Estey ana
Fred Harding Harris - returned home
Saturday. Considering that none OF
them had ever participated IN bag
tournament they made an excellent
showing. Estey tied with three other
PLAYERS for a place in the first sixteen
for the state championship with 81
for the IS holes, but on the draw was
placed in the second sixteen, where
his teammates had qualified with 90
each. In the second 16 Harris was
beaten in the first round, but Estey
and Thompson each won three matches
and were pitted against each other
i'm the final round for a handsome cup.
They finished all even at the 18th hole
and Thompson won the extra hole IN
q five to four for Estey. Thompson s
ball stymied Estey-that is, 1t was dI-
rectly in front of the latter's ball, so
that Joe did not have an opportunity
to put directly for the hole.
In the big handicap match Saturday
Harris looked like a winner at the end
of the first round. He played the nine
holes out in 40, lower than the score
of any player in the qualifying round
of the state championship, and finished
with 80 for the Is holes. His handicap
was placed at 10, giving him a net OF
70. Two other players with their
handicaps had net of rs, one stroke
less than Harris. The latter had diff
ficulties on a par three hole, when his
first shot landed in a bunker. After
several slashings he finally holed out
in nine strokes on hole where he
would seldom take more than four.
The state championship was finally
won by w. A. Barber, ir., of the Elk
wanok club of Manchester Barber i.

give the youngster confidence.

 TREATY SIGNED.
 BERLIN REPORTS

Berlin, Aug. 22-By wireless to Sayville, L. I.The Overseas News Agency gave o1tsthe following to- day:
 Reports from Sofa and Constant nople state that Turkey and Bulgaria have signed a new treaty, Turkey granting Bulgaria her desired direct railroad connection with the sea and Bulgaria agreeing to observe a ben evolent neutrality 'if not more"
 UnoficiaI reports late in July stat ed that a convention had been signed on July 22 by which Turkey ceded to Bulgaria the Turkish portion of the Dedeagh4ech railway. The report stat ed that the treaty left Bulgaria un- pledged concerning her attitude in the war.
 That Bulgaria. had not been pledged to any definite course as regards the war, has been the assumption under which negotiations have been con ducted by the entente allies look ing to a satfFfaction of her reported demands fo4 territorial concessions from Serbia, and Greece as the price of her entry into the war on the side of the allies, Several unofficial matic activities appeared to confirm this view. It was reported for in stance in Sofia despatches through London on Aug. 16 that Bulgaria had recalled from ConstantinopIe a dele gate who went there to negotiate with Turkey.

Seymour Plant Is
 Willing to Cease
 Nocturnal Rumbling

Frank J. Ford, the Seymour resi- dent who claimed dishes were knock ed from the shelves and that he couldn't sleep because of noise from the Seymour Mfg Go, plant, found the company was willing to compro- mise with him when a hearing on his injunction proceeding was held before Judge Curtis in the Superior court to- day. The company was willing to op- crate it's casting plant only from a. m.. to g D. ua., in order to give Ford a chance to slumber. After a con ference between counsel Judge Curtis reserved decision
 Ford recently obtained a temporary injunction against the company. He said he had lived in his present resi- dence 25 years and not until a short time ago, when they began to operate the factory night and day, had he been annoyed by noise or jar.
