Albert Read, CoIored, Killed
LampIey Whisenanf Seriously
Injured - Accident Occurred
About 10 O'clock On Road to
Lockhar.

Lampley Whisenant, salesman for
the w. D. Arthur Co., agent for the
Gulf Refining Co. here, was seriously
injured and Albert Read, the colored
driver, was killed about 1880 o'clock
Wednesday morning on the road to
Lockhart and about two miles beyond
Adamsburg. When, in attempting to
pass the wagon of the Standard Oil
Co., the heavy truck dashed into a
Is foot ditch. The machine was COM
pletely overturned and both men were
pinned under the car. Young Whis-
enant was liberated, but Read was
caught under the back of the seat,
with the weight Of the car resting
across the neck. While his head,
above the right eye, was fearfully
bruised, death was caused from
strangulation. He cried out: "Help
me; l am dying" But before the
heavy truck could be removed so as
to get his body from underneath, he
was dead. That young Whisenant was
not also killed was miraculous.
Where the accident occurred it is 9
very dangerous roadway, going uI
the long hill beyond the Ashmore
Vanderford home. There is long
steep hill, and very dangerous
curve. Just where this curve begins
and for considerable distance down
the hill, there is gully some Is feet
deep. 1t was while rounding this
curve, and suddenly being confronted
by the Standard Oil wagon which was
coming up the hill that the driver
lost control of the truck and the fata
plunge into the deep ditch was made
Coroner Harris held an inquest fol

GIVE WOMEN RIGHT TO VOTE
How Caledonia County Men Voted
On the Issue.

Montpelier, Mar. S.-A bill relating
to demurrage charges was ordered to
a third reading today, and the House
bill fixing the salary of fish and game
commissioner at ,$2500 was passed bv
the Senate at the morning session.
| There was more or less debate arous-
ed over the action taken on the bills,
On the latter bill Sem Villas be-
lieved that the salary should be $4,000
instead of $500 and moved that the
bin be recommitted. He asked for
the yeas and nays and his motion was
lost, % to 3.
On the demurragc charges bill Sen.
Adams explained that he had intro
duced the bill by request and knew
very little about it. Sen. Morse OPP
posed the bill, believing the existing
| law allowing four days free time to
be better. Sen. Demeritt favored the
| bill, being satisfied that the public
service commission would safeguard
the interests of shippers and that the
bill would help the railroads and not
injure the shippers. Sen. Foote OPP
posed the measure.
Sen. Villas explained that every
state having any law covering the
matter OIL Tree Tune IOr TdllTOdu ours,
with the exception of Texas and Ver-
mont, leave the matter with the pub
lie service commission. He urged ia
vorable consideration of the bill.
The House added to third read
ing House bill number 144 this at
ternoon, which is the bill designed to
grant to women property owners the
right to vote in town meetings Rep.
Metzgar, LaFleur, Moore of Ludlow
and others made strong appeals for
the bill, while Senator of Rutland and
! Phelps OF Fairhaven led the opposi-
zion.
1t was an interesting contest, Meth
err side asking nor giving any favors.
Those members from Caledonia coun-
| ty favoring the bills are:

House Reversed Itself.

MONTPELIER, March 11.-Saturday
proved to be Il busy day in the legis-
lature. Fully third of the members
appeared to have forgotten that they
had already had three days pay with
out work, so they quit and went to
their homes, the faithful few remain
cd and did and undid some of the
work of the session.
The House proceeded to reconsider
their vote of yesterday killing the in
crease of salary for the Auditor of Ac-
counts and then voted that $4,000 was
none too much for the present watch
dog of the treasury. The bill now
goes to the senate and will be prompt
~ concurred in. 1t is amusing how
the House, like the measles" will
break out once in while, and then
the next morning watch them come
back and say it's all a mistake and
proceed to reconsider This is es-
pecially true when they have a lapse
of memory and. get careless with ad-
ministration proposals.
The House passed without objeC-
ton Mr.. Proutys bill relating to an
armory in the city Of Newport.
Another little f1utter took place this
morning when the Senate sent back
to the House H. 1913 which proposed
to make the salary Of the fish and
game commissioner $4,000 the SEN
ate amended the bill by striking out
the $4,000 and inserted mot to exceed
$780," The House refused to con-
cur by vote of 101 to So.
Mr. Dwinell of Calais opposed H.
500, making Lincoln's birthday a le-
gal holiday and the. bill was killed.
