FENTON TO OPEN
STORE TOMORROW
New Mems Shop at Former Location of
Roots Pharmacy Has Especially
Attractive Entrance

f. j. Fenton will open tomorrow af
ternoon at O'Clock his new men s
clothing and furnishings store on Main
street in what was formerly the store
occupied by Roots pharmacy. The
front of the store has been trans
formed and the entire interior ar
ranged especially for the needs of the
business to be conducted there.
The entrance is different from any
other in town and especially attractive
Instead of the two steps that formerly
led from the sidewalk to the store
floor level there is one low one and a
sloping areaway 10 feet IN length to
the doorway, which is the width only
of single wide door.
The display windows on both sides
of the entrance are deep, and two feet
from the door on both sides of the
area is jog in the windows which
gives further opportunity for display
of goods to be seen from the front.
The areaway is paved with red tile
and. the name of the proprietor in bras;
letters is sunk in the floor. Over tht
areaway at the extreme front is tht
name Featon in colored glass, sur
mounted with prismatic glass, which
is very effective when illuminated a
night.
The display windows are enclosed
and prismatic glass aids in the light
| ing of the store. The store will b.
known as Fenton S Men S Shop.

LONG TRAINS AN
INCONVENIENCE
Extend Well Beyond Station Platform,
Making it Necessary for Passen-
gers to Alight on Ground.

The inconvenience of the long trains
that are being run on the Boston & Maine
railroad at the local union station, was
never better illustrated than this af-
ternoon when the LAG train for New
York arrived at the station drawn by two
engines. In order to permit the baggage
to be loaded even at the extreme southern
end of the cinder extension of the cement
platform the stop must be made with only
the first six cars of l3-car train in a
position where it is possible for passengers
to alight from or board the train at the
platform.
All of the nine Pullman cars were at the
forward end of the train, leaving the three
day coaches and the dining car wen north
of the Bridge street grade crossing. This
! compelled the passengers to alight in a
heavy rain in the upper yard and wade
through mud and cinders and climb over
switch rods in order to reach the shelter
of the station platform roof. Those who
boarded the day coaches were compelled
to walk well up into the yard.

MRS. HADLEY MADE
HONORARY MEMBER
Brattloboro Chapter, D. A. R., Holds
Annual Meeting - Star Spangled
Banner in Song and Story.

Brattleboro chapter, d. A. R., held
its September meeting yesterday after
noon in the Unitarian parish house. The
rooms were very tastefully decorated
with cut flowers, red white and blue
colors being used exclusively. 4 large
flag was suspended III the main audi
ence room. Mrs. Mary Field Hadley
was made an honorary member of the
chapter in honor of her approaching
Tooth birthday anniversary.
As Sept. IA is the anniversary of the
writing of the Star Spangled Banner,
Mrs J. j Vandcrveer read a very IN
teresting article written by Francis
Scott Key, Sd, giving the story as told
by his illustrious grandfather, of his
imprisonment on the British man of
war in the harbor at Baltimore, where
he was an unwilling witness to the
bombardment of Fort McHenry Sept.
IA, 1914, and which occasioned his writ
ing the Star Spanglcd Banner.
Mrs. S. +. Lawton and Miss Hutchins
then sang Star Spangled Banner very
acceptably, after which the social com
mittee served tea, assisted by Miss
Gladys Holden and Miss Della New
comb, closing very delightful after

BORDER QUESTION
IS HARD TO SETTLE
Many Obstacles Have Arisen
in Conference of Joint
Commission
GEN. BLISS OBJECTS
TO THE PROPOSALS
1t Seems Unlikely That Amy Plan for
Joint Policing of Border Will Prove
Acceptable Mexico Must Realize
Her Obligations.

NEW LONDON, Sept 15-Practical
obstacles have arisen in the consideration
by the mixed JOINT commission here of
numerous suggestions for the pacifcation
of the border which make it seem i'm
probable at this time that any agreement
can be formulated without prolonged dis
cusson.
Major General Bliss, assistant chief of
staff of the army, was before the commits
sion today to point out the objections that
can be raised to many of the proposals,
including that of an international con-
stabulary to relieve the military of both
countries OF the border patrol work.
The commission held only brief ses-
sion, the Mexicans planning to leave for
New York today to attend the celebration
tomorrow OF McXico's great holiday com
mcmorating the declaration of her indie
pendence and the throwing off of Spanish
rule
They viii return Monday, when the con
| ferences Will be resumed There can be no
doubt that one of the purposes of the
| Washington administration is to arouse
Mexico to the moral obligation that is felt
rests upon her to protect American inter
ests along the international boundary
| from the dcpredations of Mexican bandits
| For this reason it seems unlikely that any
| plan for policing the border will prove
acceptable that seems to relieve her Of
that responsibility.

VIOLENCE RENEWED
DURING THE NIGHT
Officials Hope to Avert Sym.
pathetic Action by Trades
Unions
Elevated Cars Bombarded with stones,
Bricks and and Other Missiles -
Bullet Grazed Shoulder of Passenger
On 9th Avenue Line.

NEW YORK, Sept. Is - Although
union leaders have virtually abandoned the
hope that Mayor Mitchell and the public
service commission may bring about a
peaceful adjustment of the differences be-
tween the fighting street railway men and
their employers the belief was strong in
official circles today that some action
would be taken within the next "a hours
to avert the threatened sympathetic strike
OF 10000 trade unionists
The Central Federated union of Manhat
tan is TO hold a special meeting to consid
er the advisability of joining in a strike
that will astound New York"
The Brooklyn Central Labor union
comprising 50 local unions, already has
voted in favor of such strike.
During the night violence broke out
anew From midnight the Sixth ana
Ninth avenue elevated trains were almost
continuously bombarded with stones
bricks and other missiles One guard wa.
injured and many windows were broken
The police report that shot was fired al
Ninth avenue train and that the bulle
hattened itself against. the woodwork aftel
grazing the shoulder of a passenger.
| Service on the subway and elevated line
continues normal The surface lines ar
still crippled.

BIG SHIP BURNED,
PASSENGERS SAVED
Pacific Coast Liner Destroyed in Sight
of the Oregon Coast, But All
Were Rescued.

MARSHFlELD, Oregon, Sept. 15.-The
Pacific Coast Steamship company's big
passenger steamer Congress, Son Francisco
to Seattle, with 253 passengers and crew
of l70 abroad, caught fire eight miles off
shore near Coos Bay Wednesday evening,
and was a total loss at midnight All the
passengers and crew were rescued, the
bar dredge Colonel f. S Michie and the
passenger vessels, Tillamook and Yellow
stone, going to her assistance
At 4.30 in the afternoon the Congress
was sighted by the Coos Bay lookout en-
veloped in smoke. Shortly afterward a
radio message from the burning vessel APP
pealing for quick aid was received here
Captain n f. Cousins said she had caught
fire in her No 3 hold and that there was
no hope of saving the vessel The Niche
which was near by, answered the call, and
as there was a calm sea the work OF res
cue was accomplished without danger
/ Crowds lined the waterfront here and
| the steamer, though eight niles away
could plainly be seen. Due to the peri
of an explosion from her fuel oil tanks
the Niche and other ships were forced tc
stand away from the doomed vessel while
boats took off her passengers and crew
Officials of the operating company char
tered a special train to take the passen
gers to Seattle.
| The Congress was built in Camden, \
j., three years ago, and was said to be tn,
finest coastwIse steamer in the San Fran
cisco-Seattle trade. She left San Francisco
with 2l6 first cabin and 81 steerage pas
