WILL SETTLE ISSUE As
TO WHICH IS CHAMPION


Eddie Johnson and Frank Barrieau
both claim to be In the best of condi-
tion that they could possibly hope
to put themselves In for their coming
battle next Saturday night. Neither
will have any trouble making the
weight. Barrieau is within the 153
pounds as prescribed by the articles
of agreement and Johnson is not
more than three pounds above the
mark. Unless looks are deceiving
both men have right to claim that
they are in perfect condition. Ger
tainly they look the part and those
who have been watching the move
ments Of the men since the match
was made are firmly convinced that
the battle will be the greatest In the
prize ring history OF the district.
1t is said that the question of su
premacy will this time be settled be-
yond the shadow of = doubt, and II
satisfactory conclusion IL not reached
at the end Of ten rounds, which is
not unlikely, considering the merits
of the two men. then the route will
be Immediately gone over again and
then 1t would seem that a settlement
should undoubtedly be reached.
Promoter Tom Chambers is de-
termined to make this the best exhi-
bition ever staged here since he has
taken up the game. A settlement ~
to the third man in the ring was
reached yesterday when the prin
cipals and promoter agreed upon
Packey Mcfarland as referee. This
selection cannot fail to meet with
universal approval. No man that
has ever appeared here has anything
on Packey when 1t comes to knowl-
edge OF the game, and he is conced'
ed by all to be composed of nothing
hut fairness.
There will be a six round prelim
mary that should be we'll worth the
price of admission by itself. Kid
Lee will be matched against boy

ABANDONED ON DOORSTEP.
Bouncing BlackEyed Baby Left at an
Orleans House

Orleans, Oct 30.-A baby boy was left
on the doorstep of c. w. Skinner of East
Bloomington, early Sunday morning.
The child is said to be about Is months
old, healthy, and weighs about 25 pounds,
with dark hair and black eyes. 1t was
dressed in old clothes and wrapped in a
horse blanket. 1t looked as if man
had cared for it for some time.Nt seemed
better contented with men than with
women.
The only idea that the authorities
have where the baby came from is, that
an automobile was heard by Miss Elsie
Skinner, daughter of Mrs. Skinner and
teacher in the Irasburg schools, about
a. m. Soon after she heard a child
crying but thinking it was the baby of
her brothers she paid no attention to it,
until later when she was again aroused.
She went to the door and found the
toddling child
The selectman, +. y. Porter, and Luke
Brown, and Overseer of the Poor F. G..
Crandall were called and temporary
home was found for the deserted baby.
The affair has stirred up the entire
community and the authorities are doing
all in their power to locate the parties
responsible for the deed.

NORWAY HAS LOST
ONE-SEVENTH OF
HER SHIPPING
German Submarine War Has Been More
Destructive to II Proportionately
Than to British Shipping
Interests.

London, Oct 30.-Much space, devoted
in the morning newspapers to-day to a
discussion of Gcrmany's submarine war
on Norwegian trade, pointed out that
Norway has now lost one-seventh of her
total merchant shipping, about four per
cent proportionately more than Great
Britain.
Concerning this The Times says edi-
torially: "There is no possible excuse
for this wanton savage attack on ships
of a neutral power. Germany pretends
that the reason for the campaign is Nor
ways decree prohibiting bellgerent sub
marines entering Norwegian waters, but
this decree is practically identical with
the regulations already long in force in
Holland and Sweden, which were unchal-
legned by Germany. The larger and more
sinister purpose of the German onslaught
is that Germany aims impartially at
the destruction of tonnage during the
war with the intention of supplying its
place from German ships hereafter"
The Daily Mail suggests that Germany
may be wantonly seeking to force war
on Norway or possible hopes to foment
strife between Norway and Sweden to
her own advantage.

Into Street Car.

Bellows Falls, Oct. 30.-An automobile
driven by Walter B. Glynn OF Saxton'
River struck u carriage driven by Dorr
Thayer of Bellows Falls about o'clock
last night near the Sabin bridge in North
Westminster. Mr.. Thayer was thrown

which ran nearly a mile. When opposite
Albert Ramsay's house in Gagcville it
jumped directly at an electric car, the
car and the animal meeting head-on. The
horse was thrown to one side.
The steel front end of the car crum-
pied like paper and John Dunbar, mo-
torman, was pinned between the dash
board and the front door. He sustained
injuries to his legs and chest. Waldo
Bresland jumped from the front end and
as the ear went past him pulled the troll
ley pole off the wire stopping the car,
which Dunbar was unable to do. Alvin
Pollard was riding on the front end of
the car and sustained a cash in his fors-
head and was pinned in the wrecksge.
The horses back was broken and it had

i1o TONS OF HAY BURNED.
Fire at Orleans Undoubtedly Was Set by
Boys.

Orleans, Oct 30.-The old ellis barn
on Irasburg street, owned by the E. l.
Chandler Co, was completely destroyed
by fire Sunday afternoon. The building
contained 10 tons of hay and the fire
was probably set by three boys who were
seen running from back of the building
about the time the fire was discovered.
The village fire department responded
to the alarm and did well TO save the
nearby buildings which caught because
of the stiff breeze which blew toward
them. Part Of the time the firemen were
Obliged TO be protected from the flames
by large door which other helpers held
over them.
The four inch water main on the street
did not give sufficient presseure for the
needed stream and two of the mill COM
pany's pumps were set in action.
The building and contents were a total
loss. Guards watched the place during
the night, for the hay WAS burning until
late hour.
