quor in Carriage

BURLINGTON, July 19.-Carl NJ.
Lacaillade, whose home is on Spring

rev's corner, about one mile from the
village. The horses were feeding al
the roadside and Lacaillade was lying
dead across the axle of the wagon
with the reins about his neck and
Lamoux in a like position on top OF
him. 1t would appear that at the rise
Of little hill the man who had been
driving lost his balance and fell out of
his seat and while entangied in the
| reins, choked to death.
Lamoux said yesterday that as the
| horses were jogging along at an easy
gait Lacaillade suddenly pitched for

Neither East Nor West Vii
lage District Extends to
Centeryille
THIRD DISTRICT is
BEING CONSIDERED
Hydrants and Hose Needed = Water
Main Already Available Sentiment
of Property Owners Win Be Ascer-
tained-Taxation Involved.

Peter J. Hopkins, Carl s. Hopkins
and David Weld discussed with the Sc
lectmen Saturday evening the desire of
residents of Centreville for some form
of fire protection. No definite plan was
decided upon, but, aroused by the need
Of some sort of fire protection, those
who have started the agitation intend
to carry it further
The section between the residence of
Hermon Z. Eddy on Western avenue
and Guilford street Is absolutely
without fire protection and it is a sec
tion that has been extensively built up
within the last few years. There are
no hydrants, and as it is without the
limits of the village fire district no le-
gal call can be made upon the village
fire department for aid, but the de
partment always responds and does
what it is possible TO do with chem
icals. The West Brattleboro fire dis
trict does not extend eastwards be-
yond Guilford street.
Hydrants and hose are what are
needed. The water main is in the
street, so there would be no heavy ex-
pense necessary to get water except
the installing of fire hydrants and the
buying of hose and furnishing some
means of getting it to fire.
The suggestion has been made that
a third fire district in the town of
| Brattleboro be organized, one that will
| include this section between the east
| and west villages that is now without
fire protection. On this plan work will
| be started at once and the sentiment
of property owners in that district will
| be ascertained.
| The original plan of circulating a
| monster petition asking that this sec
tion be included in. the village fire linn
its has been abandoned because of the
almost certain attitude of a majority
of the voters against increasing the
taxes in that section, which naturally
would follow such a plan.
| The establishment of third fire dis
trict would call also for additional
taxes, but they would not be so great
as would be the case were that see,
tion to pay village taxes.

Tremendous Activities of Germans III
the East Suggest That They Have

LONDON, July 10. - Attention is
now centered on the gigantic opera
tions in the eastern field of war, where
fighting is in full swing on nearly
every section of the Russian line.
Gen. Won Buelow now commands the
extreme left of the German advance at
Riga, which is being conducted by
cavalry on a scale exceeding anything
heretofore undertaken during the war.

The Germans are considered un'

hence the Russians, in the opinions OF
many military observers, are likely to
attempt a complete withdrawal with
their armies intact.
These tremendous activities by the
Germans in the east suggest that they
have but little reserve left to devote
TO the western campaign, which offers
the entente allies a respite either foi

The best service the allies could give

that the allies may combine both The
