Several times Sayville was on the
point of risking another bag of sand
forward to steepen their angle Of de-
scent, but each time he decided in favor
of caution. Twice he looked back and
scowled at the offending scarf.
Eyes, sir" he muttered each time,
you show me any good ever done by a
finnicky thing like that and I'll eat it,"
TcIand's face was a study of mingled
anxiety and self-reproach.
Can we land all right, do you
think?" he asked
THAT is the problem that I am figur-
ing on" Sayville answered. IF we
smash, well drown; that is the long
and short of it. II we dc not smash
.nd nothing strains, we can free the
rudder and fly back. But without con-
troll 1 think, to be brutally frank, that
something is going to give. We can

the statement made in FL Paso that
several hundred head Of cattle had been

scend slowly in absolute silence.

Five minutes later, he gave a grunt

Sayville leaned back.

Some Expensive Fishing.

On complaint of County Fish and
Game Warden J. T. Stevens of Hyde
Park, two men have been forced to
pay three separate fines for fishing in
Cory pond, private preserve in
Eden. The men are Volney Parker
and David Burgess of Lowell. The
men were caught fishing in the pond
by r. l.. Fairbanks and others who
leased the pond.
When arraigned before Justice F.
P. Collins of Eden Mills they pleaded
guilty to fishing during the close sea-
son, Parker paying $17.19 and Burgess
paying $16.39. Next day they were
hauled up for fishing without licenses,
and each paid $4,000 for that Hav-
ing settled the second time, they were
called upon to settle for private dam
ages, when each was forced to pay
$500. States Attorney NJ F. Maurice

St. bloomsbury. Shake,

So St. Johnsbury is to have an ar
mory, the armory board having Sc
lected the scale town as the next on
the list Of the several towns that are
scheduled for armories. ST Adams
with its splendid new armory, is in
position to congratulate St. Johnsbury
most heartily. 1t is a great thing for
any community that sustains an active
volunteer military organization the
way many of our Vermont towns are
doing. The proper housing of the
young men that make up the National
Guard is important as it stimulates
more interest, eXcites worthy local
pride, and inspires patriotism. St
Adams is all right, and she is glad to
see st. Johnsbury coming right along
with an armory. There are several
other good towns that are to have
homes for the drill boys, but, as The
Free Press remarks, it is too bad that
a matter Of mere interest on the
money involved" compels wait of
few years. Armories are needed now.

Man OF So Walked s Miles.

Charles McGovern, ST., who makes
MS home with his son, William, at
Lyndon took Easter dinner with his
son, Charles, on Clark avenue. This
In itself is hardly of interest but the
fact that Mr.. McGovern who has pass
ed his S3rd birthday walked a distance
OF eight miles brings this item into the
unusual class. He left his sons at
Lyndon about ten o'clock and arrived
at the McGovern home on Clark ave-
nue. at 1915, therefore averaging
about four miles an hour. To show
the folks that he was far from all in
after his hike he wandered about town
after dinner and took in the Easter
parade.

Vermont weekly Trade Report.

Bradstreet's Burlington office re-
ports granite business in both monu-
mental and builders lines is not up to
average for the period, although man
ufacturers of monumental work are
looking forward to better conditions
as soon as work for Memorial Day is
further progressed. 1t is also antici-
pated that the publicity campaign will
materially benefit this grade of work.
Quarry owners are making liberal
shipments of rough stock to out of
the state points. Among the marble
interests there appears to be a little
better demand than earlier in the
year. Manufacturers of slate are re-
ceiving liberal orders, but the labor
situation at some quarries in the slate
belt have delayed work. The demand
for lumber and building material con-
tinues active. Furniture manufactur-
ers note a steady demand at advanced
prices. Manufacturers of knit goods
and hosiery report the volume of bus
mess on hand, even at advanced
prices, is far in excess of the period.
One hosiery mill reports production
already sold for the year and further
business received being refused for
anything like immediate shipment.
Users of gray goods report liberal buy
ing.
The maple sugar crop this year is
much in excess of the crop reported
last year. A little better than a nor
NAL crop is reported. The season is
about over, although in some of the
higher attitudes, there may be more
of this product harvested. More work
has been done this year in exploiting
the fancy grades. as there appears to
be a ready market for all that can be
produced in this line. Country roads
are still heavy for travel and retail
