No "Whitc THANKSGIVING Caused
DisaDpOintmentS.

Many were the diSappointmentS evil
denced in the failure of the weather
man to provide q white" Thanksgiv-
ing. After the heavy snowfall of IA
inches coming in early November and
the cold wave that arrived directly
afterwards which pushed the mercury
one occasion, those who were looking
forward to a Thanksgiving of sleigh
ing, skating or a pleasant little trip
after a buck thought that they had
a right to be disappointed.
Instead of the "f1eecy white man
tic" q driZZle from above and the
slush and mud underfoot were the
weatherman's contribution toward the
days enjoyment. These conditions
caused many plans of people in town
and of those coming from out of town
to be changed. At least the remarks
overheard at times would lead one so
to believe.
But with all the inclement weather
the Thanksgiving dinners served to
call many into town as well as to
send others to dine at other places.
The hotels in town reported a large
number of guests served at their ia
bles. All houses made special efforts
to serve an attractive menu and all
seemed to have full dining rooms.
The restaurants also served a
Thanksgiving dinner to large crowds
of diners but the management of both
hotels and restaurants say they would
have had record crowds but for the
rainy weather.

THREE WILD HEIFERss SHOT
Man Bought Then On tbs Run and
Made BIG Profit

In these days when beef is worth
about as much as an equal bulk Of
gold it must have seemed TO Bert, Mum
dell Of Brattleporo, like opening a
mine when he bought three two-year-
old heifers for SIS.
M J. Sherry runs a restaurant on
Elliot street-just the place for serv-
ing fresh beef to good advantage. lie
also. owns a farm in GuilfOrd. In the
stock which he had on the farm were
two-year-old heifers, but they were so
wild that when he tried TO get them
into the barn a few days ago he could
MT get any nearer to them than he
could q deer, SO ne gave up the chase
in disgust.
Mr.. Mundcll, who is employed by
the Valley Grain company on Flat
street, heard about the wild heifers
and allowed that he could get them.
Mr.. Sherry allowed that they could be
taken off his hands for $15 and Mr..
Mundell promptly showed the cash
across.
This week, with two or three COM
Danions, Mr. Mundell went to the
Guilford farm, where the heifers were
sighted and brought down with rifles.
The hides were worth what Mr.
Mundell paid for the animals, and he
has disposed Of both hides and beef.
The price is not stated, but it is un-
derstood to have been SIS or $50.

LOCAL coal PRICES.
Cost OF Coal in st. Johnsbury Is Lower
Than in BOstOn-SOmc Dealers
arc Buying Independent Coal

The local coal situation and prices
will easily bear comparison with the
situations and prices prevailing in
Boston and even in cities nearer us
in New Hampshire and in Massachu-
Sets The Boston price that was ask
ed during the week was from $11.75
to $12.25 and was coal handled by the
larger dealers.
The St. JohnsDury prices at the
present time are from $3.50 to $11.5O.
The wide range in price is due to the
fact that there has been a very little

but on that which has been arriving
the dealers have been able to keep
the price down to $3.50. AS the de-
mands are far in excess of the sup
ply some dealers have been forced to
buy what is called independent coal or
coal not being mined by the large
controlling companies of the coal
fields This coal sells for $11.50 per
ton and in other cities for $12 and owe
The st. Johnsbury price is still lower
when it is considered that the freight
on coal from Boston. to st. Johnsbury
is $3.50 q ton, which would lead to
the belief that the local dealers are
selling on a very much smaller mar
gin than is the case in Boston.
There is still a carload or more of
coal arriving each week through reg
uIar channels and some are making
no effort to purchase independent
coal. Others rather than to be out
order the independent coal and have
no trouble to sell at. the price accord
ing to their statements.

AUTOMOBILE SMASH
Charles Kinks Car SIIids Into Pole
and is Badly Damaged

Charles E. Kirk ran his bile
into a telegraph pole on Central
street Wednesday between 10 and IL
o'clock breaking the pole and damag-
ing the car seriously. The only occu-
pants were Mr.. Kirk and Joseph Ma
gill, neither of whom were hurt other
than slight bruises caused by the sud-
den shock Mr.. Kirk received a
scratch on his face and Mr.. MagilPs
hip was slightly wrenched.
The two were bringing some of Mr..
Magill's furniture into town from his
farm and the car was pretty well fill
ed. They were coming up the hill on
Central street. where the accident ac-
CURED 1t is not definitely known
whether Mr.. Kirk lost control or the
car skidded. The latter may be prob
able as the hill is very icy and at that
particular point slopes toward the pole
that was hit.
The minute the car hit the pole it
slowed around and came up against
some wire guys which held it from
going over the banking. Had the car
gone off the road at any other place
along the hill it might have faired
seriously with the occupants as the
chances of it's turning turtle would
have been great.
The automobile, a Chevrolet, came
out with a completely smashed radia-
tor, badly bent front aXel and broken
lights. The body was also slightly
warped and the top torn. AS far as
can be learned at present the engine
is unhurt. The probable cost of re-
pairing will be about SIS.
Men from Goss' Garage were called
and the car was lacked up, turned
around and run out on its own pow
er to the garage where it will be re-
paired.
