Patrons of the Central Vermont rail
road, especially those who drive in from
adjoining towns to take the night trains,
are complaining because the railroad at
taches fail to keep the station open every
night. Some time ago the Barre Board
of Trade conferred with the railroad Off |
Gals in an effort to have the station
opened throughout the night. The re
quest was granted and until recently, il !
il stated, patrons OF the Barre branch |
have had little trouble in finding in the |
station a haven of rest while waiting for t
trains to depart. Ii is not known wheth-
er attaches responsible for closing the
station are acting under orders from
headquarters.
b, f. Davis, a Trow hill cattle drover
and his men were performing their usual
Friday morning speciality in the Mont
pelier & Wells River freight yard to-day,
when a refractory steer. one of a herd OF
cattle collected in Washington and Orange
through the week, slipped from
the corral and started on an excursion
through that part of the world which
lies outside the freight yard. Near the
federal building, the steer brushed into ,
a team and then continued up South K
Main street Mr.. Davis joined in the I
pursuit with his Ford, Pedestrians beat
a hasty retreat as the animal horned its
way up and down the street and it was
not until the steer became entanged in {
City park that ii submitted to capture. |
Drivers accounted for the steers unruly
conduct by asserting that the sudden t
snow storm which descended as the drove T
entered the yard, made the animal i
'owly." s
