FINE OF S15O is
IMPOSED ON HIRSH
Found Guilty by Judge Barber of Aid
ing Promotion of Lottery-Case
Will Be Appealed.

Judge Frank F. Barber Of the mu-
nicipal court this morning made his de-
cision in the case of the state against
VI. Hirsh, who was tried last week on
the charge of aiding in the promotion
of 4 lottery b. securing members for
furniture club for the United Fur
niture Co. OF Boston. Judge Barber
found the respondent guilty and i'm
posed a fine of $3.50 With costs of
S42.3l. He gave the attorneys for the
respondent 80 days in which to file
briefs of their exceptions to take the
case to the supreme court and fixed
bail at $3.50. The maximum penalty
which may be imposed under the stat
ute is 5000.
The judge said that while the re-
spondent and the company for which
he is working based their defense en-
tirelv upon a cleverlv worded contract,
it was noticeable that all of the wit
nesses for the state based their reasons
for becoming members of the club up
on the statements of the respondent or
other employees of the company that
drawing was held weekly in Boston
and that as result Of this drawing
some member Of the club received a
reward in the form Of piece of fur
niture.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
OMIT ASSESSMENT
Also VIII Remit December Assessment
Making but 10 for Year - I'm
usual in Fraternal Insurance.

Charles F. Mann of Brattleboro,
state deputy of the Knights of Colum-
bus, has received n telegram from VIII
liam J. Mckinley, supreme secretary,
which reads as follows:
Owing to flourishing conditions of
the order, the board of directors, under
advice of our actuary, has voted to
omit the July assessment. In all proha-
bility, from present indications, the
December assessment also Will be re
mitted -
This IS something unusual in the his
tory of fraternal life insurance and is
in marked contrast with notifications
of double assessments which occasional
~ come to members of some of the fra
ternal Insurance organizations.
For seEeral years the Knights of
Columbus insurance department has re-
mitted the December assessment, so
that members have been called upon to
pay only II assessments wear, and
now comes a still further reduction in
the cost for this year.
The Knights of Columbus fraternal
insurance organization Is recognized as
one Of the strongest in the country, hav-
ing about $4,000 members and over
S,000,000 of life insurance in force
The margin of safety over and above
the statutory standards was 26.47 per
cent at the last published statement
About So members of the order in
Brattleboro will benefit by this omission
of the July assessment.

FOUR FEET OF SNOW
HERE 73 YEARS AGO
Sleighing for Six Months - Streams
Frozen Until Middle of April,
Beckley's History Says
Editor of The Reformer:

Editor of The Reformer:
Beckley, in his History of Vermont,
published in 1916 by George H. Sails
bury of Brattleboro, says that '.the win
ter of 1923 was remarkable through
out the country for the quantity of
snow and the continuance of the cold
The northern position of Vermont
would, of course, make her partaker
of these visitations. She felt their i'm
pressions through all her borders, not
a Hill or valley escaping. The snow
was four feet deep at Brattleboro the
first week in April, and III the noun
tain towns from five to seven The
sleighing continued about six months
March was unprecedently cold, the
mercury in the thermometer going
down often several degrees below
zero -
Mr. Beckley says that the streams
remained frozen till the middle of
April, when warm rain came and
produced a flood in the Connecticut
river which came near breaking al
known records. He also alludes to the
prevalence and Tava9es of crvsipelas
during this winter. If any of your
readers are desirous of further infor-
nation respecting the remarkable win
ter of 1923. they would do well TO

ARE BOOMING ROOT
FOR PRESIDENCY
One of His Supporters Is Robert Ba
con, Who Attended the Confer
ence with Roosevelt.

NEW YORK, April s. - The move
ment for the nomination of Elihu
Root for the presidency launched last
night by a statement bearing the sig
natures of n prominent Republicans,
is supported by Robert Bacon, former
member of Col. Roosevelt s cabinet
and one Of his closest friends. IN a
statement published today Mr.. Bacon
says: :" My first choice is Elihu Root
my second choice is Theodore Roose-
velt.'
The statement issued last night was
the outcome of meetings held yester-
day at the Union League club in the
afternoon and at the Bar Association
last night It was whispered in Ger
tain quarters that it would not be un-
expected at Oyster Bay and may have
been discussed at the luncheon given
by former Ambassador Bacon last
week. at which both Mr. Root and
Theodore Roosevelt were guests.
In the seventy-four names attached
to the announcement last night Barnes
men and anti Barnes men, old guard
Republicans and so-called Progressive
and radical Republicans follow one
another. Senator Elon r. Brown Re
publican leader in the senate, follows
Nicholas Murray Butler and is in turn
followed by James \. Burden, jr. Hen
ry L. Stimson signs, with r. Fulton
Cutting, and on both sides of them are
straight organization men of long ex
perience. There are bankers, lawyers
business men, professional men, minis
ters, headed by Bishop Greer, men who
have never been actively interested in
politics before and men who have al
ways been active in politics.

FLAMES LEAP 100 FEET IN AIR
Hundred Thousand Gallons Gasoline
and Oil Burn at Bayonne, N. j.

BAYONNE, N. j., April 8.-A spec
tacular fire here late yesterday de-
stroyed 4oo-foot pier of the Texas
company, a loaded oil barge and more
than 100000 gallons of gasoline and
petroleum. The damage is estimated at
100000. The cause has not been de-
termined.
The fire broke out on the pier in a
pyramid Of $4,000 gallon cans of gaso-
line awaiting shipment. The flames
spread quick to 600 barrels of lubri-
eating oil and to barge laden with
$4,000 gallons of petroleum.
Constant explosions of cans and
barrels resemb1ed the noise Of bat
tie The flames leaped more than 10C
feet into the air and could be seen foI
miles along the water front.
The burning oil spread over the wa
ters of the Kill Won Kull, covering al
area of square mile and became 6
serious menace to shipping. Before
the fire was gotten under control tn,
entire city fire department was called
out as we'll as New York city anC
Standard Oil company fire fighters.

NATIONAL PREACHING MISSION
Services Begin Tomorrow in St Mi
chael's Episcopal Church.

Cudtl > episcopal C0urC0.
In connection with the nationwide
preaching mission, services will be held
every evening in St. Michael 5 Episco-
pal church, beginning tomorrow and
continuing through Friday, April II.
The services will begin at 40 and will
consist of prayer, familiar hymns and
plain preaching Everybody will be
made welcome and there will be nc
collections
This is national movement on the
part of the church and it is hoped
that Brattleboro residents will show
their enthusiasm for a mission which
is bound to be productive of much
good in the community.
At this critical time in the history
of the church, not only Of this coun.
/ try but the whole world, when So
much is heard of social and industrial
righteousness, of social justice and the
relation of religion to economic uues.
tions, the church feels that every man
and woman should ask themselves the
question, - Am l performing my dutie,
tas a member of 2 Christian commuun
ity toward my fellow citizens?' Pre-
suming one can answer this to his Oh
her satisfaction, there are countless
other questions of equal importanc,
which possibly could not bring a salts
factory reply. 1t is pointed out tina
it would be easier to solve some Of tn,
.perplexing questions of everyday lif
if men and women devoted a Iittl
more time to attending a place O
worship. The Christian church in
includes all the rational and uplifting
agencies for social betterment an
spiritual elevation.
