A MYSTERIOUS POISON.
Took Baby's Life and Endangered Three
Others in Family.

Rochester, n Y, Feb. "a baby is
dead and its parents. Theodore and Lena
Hansen, and sister. Vera, six years
old, are in hospital, the mother fight.
ing for her life as the result OF the ef-
feet of poison which the police inves'
tigators and physicians have as yet been
unable to identify.
The four were found lying on the floor
of their home at 500 Joseph avenue, this
city, yesterday afternoon by two other
children of the family, Theodore, ir.,
and Robert, six and eight years old re-
spectively. The boys summoned an am
bulance themselves, probably saving the
lives of their father and mother and
sister. The baby died on the way to the
hospital.
1t developed at the hospital that the
older members of the family had eaten
a luncheon of whiskey, sausage and beer
in room in which charcoal fire inn
properly regulated was burning.
Physicians are in doubt whether al
cohol, ptomaine, strychnine or gas was
the poison element. All have much the
same symptoms, it is said.

800 SINGERS WANTED
By Director Coffin to Do Justice to Choir
al Numbers.

The regular rehearsal of the Montpe-
lier Choral society last evening was de-
voted to the general study of the three
choral numbers already selected. A
marked increase in the male section was
apparent. as well as large number Of
new members.
Mr.. Coffin spoke of the desirability of
maintaining a chorus of 300 members in
order to do full justice to the choral
numbers. He referred to the fact that
his Keene chorus had been increased from
100 to 2S0 members due to Pres. Hol-
brook Of that society being impressed
with the results shown by the Montpe-
lier chorus of 225 members upon a pre-
vious visit here during the festival.
There viii be no difficulty in bringing
this chorus TO 800 members said Mr.
Coffin. "if every member here viii inter
est one new member The music is the
most singable of any that we have ever
had ard we want the men and ladies
tboth young and old of Barre and Mont
pelier who are interested in music to be
with us. IL Will be invaluable training
for them. ] don't want an all-star chO-
rus; all I ask Is that those who conc
here shall be interested and willing to
try. 7 will be responsible for results.

members If everyone viii do their part

Belgium by Monsignor
TaOci POrcelli

Rome, via Paris, Feb. o.--GiornaIe
DItalia states that Monsignor Taoci Por-
celli, papal nuncio to Belgium, presented
to Belgium Germany's proposal for sep
arate peace. 1t is said that Germany,
through Prince Won Buelow and other
prominent personages, has indicated the
terms it is ready to offer to Belgium,
which include the restoration Of Belgium
to the government Of King Albert and
the payment of a large indemnity for
damages caused by invasion and occupa-
tion and asks in return economic and
commercial privileges which would vir-
tually transform the port of Antwerp
into German center Of traffic.
To these proposals Belgium is said to
have replied with prompt refusal and a
declaration of her intention to adhere to
the allies and not conclude separate
peace.
Statements regarding efforts being
made to induce Cardinal Mercier to use
his influence for separate peace have also
been made but it is asserted that the eff
forts have been entirely in vain. Card-
nal MERCER is living in strict retirement
here, receiving no visitors.

was admitted by one in the employ of
the national government that typewrit-
ten copies are being made of dictagraph
records alleged to have been obtained at
a meeting place of men under suspicion.
