FRENCH GREET ORLEANS CREW
Men Cheered and Showered with Flow
ers in Bordeaux Streets.

BORDEAUX, March L." Nivc
Amcrique, Nive wilson, were shouts
that came from thousands of persons
when Capt. Allen Tucker and the crew
of the American steamer Orleans
stepped off the gang plank Of the
steamer and made their way through
the city. The crowd along the docks
waved handkerchiefs, hats were thrown
in the air and flowers were dropped
from balconies as the captain and his
men passed through the streets.
Groups of Frcuchmcn sang the
'Marseillaise.
At the prefecture Young woman
offered Capt Tucker q great bouquet
tied with red white and blue ribbons
More flowers were handed the Ameri-
can seamen at the Grand theater. One
bouquet was handed Captain Tucker b.
a child who was kissed by the captain
evidently TO the great delight of the
crowd.
The Americans accompanied by the
mayor and municipal officials and 4
guard Of honor continued on their way
to the city hall amidst cheering. In
proposing a toast to President Wilson.
/ the nlleu states ana lne sailors VI
the Orleans at luncheon Mayor Gruet
said; cit is with a feeling of legiti.
mate pride that ! salute the sailors Of
the great American republic. Disre-
garding the insOlent provocations of 4
nation of prey, they crossed the so
called blockade, despite the perils with
which they were menaced and thus az
firmed the right Of neutrals to unre
stricted navigation. This successful
voyage is something besides defiance
1t is much better still. 1t is an attes
tation that a great people, proud ant
free, are firmly resolved to defend the
laws of humanity and to have respect
ed the most sacred principles of civil
ization against the action of nation
which has disregarded them all. =

SHOT SILVER GREY FOX.
But Cuttingsville Man Did Not Realize
Value of Animals Pelt.

RUTLAND, March /. - George john
son of Cuttingsville received a great
price for a fox skin - or he thought
he did until he learned Of subsequent
Developments. He got $25 for the pelt.
Mr.. johnson shot the fox some weeks
ago and a peddler came along and of
fcred him IS for the skin. The owner
said that he guessed he would keep it
and have it made into a muff for his
daughter. Evidently the peddler passed
the word along, for soon thereafter a
second man appeared, looked at the
pelt and offered Mr. Johnson $40 for it,
then So, both of which offers were de
clined.
The would-be purchaser was persist
ent and tainted Mr.. Johnson by re-
marking that if he was 'ssport he
would set some price on the skin. Where
upon the Cuttingsville man said that if
the fur buyer wanted to pay him $25
for it. he could have it. Mr.. Johnson
thought the price was prohibitive, but
the fur-buyer snapped up the offer
quicker than it takes to tell it.
The pelt was taken to Clarendon and
sold for 800. 1t then went to the New
York fur market and brought 1925.
Mr.. johnson had shot beautiful
specimen of a silver grey fox, and didn I
realize the value of the rare animal.
