HELD ON CHARGE OF
SHOOTING BROTHER
Veronos in Fight at Home of Neighbors
in Florence-Bullet Pierces Body
of James.

RUTLAND, June 5.-Before several
friends, who will probably appear
against him when placed on trial, Vim
cenzo Verono, known as Frank Waldo
of Florence, a marble worker, shot his
brother, James Verono, through the
lower abdomen with 38-caliber re
volver bullet, following istic Ell
counter between the men yesterday
afternoon at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Joseph Bigno in Florence.
The would-be murderer then ran to
the home of Harry Houston, where he
hid under a bed, being found there an
hour later by Constable James E. Ten
MEN Of Pittsford, who brought the
man to the house of correction in this
city.
The injured man was treated by
| DR.. II. H. Swift of Pittsford soon af-
ter the shooting, which occurred about
| $50 O'Clock, and he was later remov
| ed to the Proctor hospital, where it is
said he had chance to recover. The
bullet passed through his body. A sec
ond shot fired by Verona at his broth
err did not take effect.
The men had been having some
trouble before yesterday, but the
! exact cause OF their differences IS no
known. 1t is supposed it is over famil!
money matters. James, the inluret
man, is 80 years old, and his brother
six years younger. Neither had beer
drinking much.
About O'Clock the prisone
stopped at the home of Charles Roe
in Florence and inquired for his broth
err, being informed that James was a

had been in the house a short time tC
gether when, it is claimed by witness
es. Frank started the trouble
The men were ordered out, and al
ter they reached the open air fists bt
gan to fly. Soon Frank was seen t
. grab his brother around the necl
g holding him with one arm and draw
- ing q revolver with the other, an
T. shot him once through the body, an
, when he was falling the revolver W.
, discharged again.

SECTION MEN STILL OUT.
B. & NJ. Employees in Northern Yer
mont Causing Some Trouble.

ST. JOHNSBURH. June 5. - The
trouble between the Boston and Maine
railroad and section men, over wages
and hours of work, which was believed
to have been adjusted last week, has
assumed a new phase and it is said
that only about 10 men are at work
between Sherbrool1e, Canada, and Ely,
a station in the town of Fairlee. Most
Of the trouble is said to center around
Bradford. 1t is alleged that men who
have been secured to replace the
strikers have been intimidated.
Deputy Sheriff N. 7. Garfield of St.
Johnsburv was sent TO Bradford yes
terday to act as a body guard for
men who made an inspection of the
block signal system between Bradford
and Ely. Deputy Garfield made the
round trip of p miles with the signal
men on foot. There was no attempt
made to annoy the men guarded by
the officer.
1t is claimed that a former section
boss named Amnel, who had been EN-
ploved about II years and who has
| Joined the strikers. is active in lead
| ing the strikers. It is reported thai
three lamp lighters employed on the
signal system were threatened will
physical injury.

There are numerous photographs of
birds in nature, two fulI-page co1ored

Now, what do we ask of you? We ask
you to believe all revelations from God.
So many do not believe and call them

and two ounces of stick cinnamon.
Peel the peaches and insert one or
two cloves in each. Boil the sugar
and vinegar with the cinnamon for
five minutes, then put In the peaches.
When the fruit is tender, remove 1t
carefully from the sirup and put 1t
into Jars. Boil the sirup until re-
duced to nearly half and pour over
the peaches.
An old-fashioned method Of preserv-
Ing peaches was to fiji the Jars with
tile whole fruit, peeled and covered
with sugar; bury three feet in the
ground below the frost.
Spiced Peaehes.-For six pounds of
fruit use three pounds of graduated
sugar and one pint of vinegar. Into
each peach insert two cloves. Put
into the sugar and vinegar one ounce
Of cinnamon, which should be in a
cheesecloth bag, and boil. When the
mixture Is. boiling hot. place the
peeled fruit in it and cook until ten
der. Put into jars and seal at once.
Peach MarmaIade.-This may be
made from the imperfect fruit, using
three-fourths the weight of the fruit
in sugar and half a pint of water to
each pound of sugar. Make a strip
and add the peaches cut in small
pieces. Boil until the mixture is
thick, for about three-quarters of an
hour. Put in jars or tumblers.
Canned Peaches.-Peel and halve
the peaches, removing the pits. For
four quarts Of peaches use three pints
Of water and pint Of sugar. When
the fruit is ready, drop into the boil
ing strip and cook gently for ten min
utes; seal Mt once. Peaches canned
whole have n richer flavor than those
with the pits removed, yet many pre-
fer them SO.
