A CROSSING ACCIDENT
Aged Manchester Man Saw Danger
But was Unable to Stop His Car


NJ. j. Convey, an old-ume deputy
sheriff of Bennington county and for
many years a resident Of this town,
was fatally hurt when his automobile
was struck by the north-bound morn
ing mail train Tuesday morning. He
died shortly after the accident.
Mr.. Covey had been to local gar
age to have his car, a 2l-horse power
Chevrolet, cleaned and was on his way
to his home in Manchester Depot at
the time of the accident, which occur
red at what is known as the HOLSTER
crossing, near the Vermont Marble
Company's plant.
So far as can be learned from those
who were in the neighborhood at the
time it would seem that Mr.. Convey
saw his danger and tried to stop but
was carried across the railroad track
before his car came to standstill and
the rear of the car was struck and its
occupant thrown through the wind
shield and into the air, the car being
almost completely turned around by
the impact and badly smashed.
Assistance was Immediately at hand
and the train was stopped, Conductor
Lee and the train crew going back to
the scene of the accident to render
such assistance as they could. Friends
quickly removed the aged man to the
offices Of DR.. L. ]. Lovejoy short dis
lance away. 1t was found that he was
terribly injured about the head and
body. He was taken to his home
where he died after he had regained
consciousness for few moments.
Mr.. Covey was born in Manchester,
August 10, 1886, but in early life his
parents moved to Sandgate where he
resided the greater part of his life,
coming to Manchester to care for an
aged uncle to whose property he sue
ceeded.
Mr. Convey was a successful business
man and had been prominent in af-
fairs in the town and county for many
years. He leaves two sons, NJ W.
Covey and j. B. Convey, both Of Man
chester; daughter, Mrs. Mitchell of
Hudson Falls, N. "; and several
grandchildren. He was member of
the Masonic fraternity and the funer-
al, which will be Masonic one, will

greatly miss him.

BRITISH NAVAL AUTHORITIES ISSUE WARNING TO ENTENTE SHIPPING TO WATCH FOR GER MAN RAIDER ON THIS SIDE OF THE ATLANTIC.
Associated Press)

HALIFAX, N S., Dec. S.-De- layed) All Entente shipping in Ca nadian and American ports has been warned by the British naval authori- ties to be on the lookout for Ger man raider which is believed to be operating off the American coast. And owing to the fact that the warn ing has been received a number of the masters of British merchantmen and freighters now in port here have concluded not to leave until the scare blows over.
 It develops that the raider is mas Querading under false colors. That is, she is claiming to be of Dutch nationality. She was intercepted by a British patrol boat off the coa-t of Scotland on December 2. After she had been thoroughly examined she was allowed to proceed upon her way, the captain of the patrol boat being under the impression that she was the Dutch merchantmen Gamma.
 Later it was learned that the Gamma was in port at Kirkwall on December 2. She is still there, and will not leave until tomorrow. It is therefore supposed that the boat, which was masquerading under her name and colora is a German raider, and Entente shipping has accord ingly been warned to keep on the lookout for her.

MOON CHANCE BRINGS CHANCE
 IN THE WEATHER

Tho.e Fairbanksans who have been judging the weather by the moon are now batting themselves on the back and saying "I told you SO" For the change in the moon brought the change in the weather. That is. when the moon became full Friday night and started to wane. the mer- cuTy in the thermometers started to come up, and twenty-four hours after the thermometers had registered forty-five below they were register ing seven below. raise of thirty eight degrees in that length of time It was seven below at midnight lat night.
 Reports from all over the interior indicate a corresponding change in temperature, which means an abate ment in the cold weather, for a short time at least. The residents of Fair  banks will therefore be given an op- portunity to get in the muchly need ed wood which the coming of the cold snap caught them short of The result was that Fairbanks nearly had wood famine, but it is probable that teamstera and wood haulers will now a good business for some time to come.
 During the past ten days the ther mometers registered between forty five and fifty-five below zero most of the time. and it was never above forty below during that time.
