not complaining, said japanese newspa.
pers yesterday, as they understand the
circumstances. The freight, however,
will be turned over to consignees as

TWO CHILDREN HURT
nv AUTO ACCIDENT
Edna Trudell Got Fracture In One Shoul-
der and Brother, Napoleon, Was
Bruised.

| Two youngsters, Edna and Napoleon
Trudell, children of n. Trudell of Brook
lyn street, figured in an automobile ac
cident at the corner of Merchant and
North Main street Friday afternoon
when the former received injuries which
will necessitats her confinement to the
house for several days. The automobile
a Maxwell runabout, was occupied by
A. Gasparello and a passenger and the
accident occurred when the car was about
TO turn into Merchant street. The corner
has been the scene of several minor ac-
cidents and at o'clock, when the chill
dren were injured, there was something
of congestion of traffic in that vicinity.
Bystanders say that the Trudell chill
dren, who were on the crossing, ran into
the car. The driver stopped the ma
chine instantly, but not before both
children had been hit.
They were able to extricate themselves
without assistance, but the little girl was
seen to stagger and then lean up against
the Zaneoni block James Bennett hap
pened to be passing along the street and
he was the first to reach the girl. Ap-
parently the boy had escaped unscathed,
but both were taken to the office of DR..
F. X. z. Archambault, where the physi-
clan, at the request of Mr.. Gasparelo,
made careful examination of the chill
dren. Young Napoleon, it developed, suf
fered only minor bruises, and his sister
sustained bone fracture in the shoulder
and appeared to be suffering from bad
blow on the head. The fracture was re-
iuced and the children were taken home
People who witnessed the accident we're
disposed to exonerate Mr.. Gasparello
rom all blame.

BARRE STILL SHORT
OF THE MINIMUM
Incomplete Figures This Morning Gave
the Total as 1929, 2o,35o-Banks Are
Open This Afternoon and
Evening.

Slowly Barre is creeping toward its
minimum of $350,000 in the second LIB
erty loan Of 1917 Although in notable
instances substantial gains gotten under
way early in the week have been con-
sistently maintained, the returns from
the banks this forenoon were not of a
nature wholly encouraging and unless
there is whirlwind finish before the
books close tonight, Barre will have to
endure the stigma of having failed to do
its share in subscribing for the loan.
To-day's aggregate was S329,350, as
against yesterdays total of S3l4,650,
which represents a gain of less than
$4,000 The banks of Barre closed for
banking business at noon to-day, but
will be open to receive subscriptions to
the Liberty loan from to p. m. this
afternoon and from to 0 o'clock this
evening.
Thus it will be seen that an llth- hour
response on the part of the citizens of
Barre and vicinity will put this district
on an even basis with some of the COM
munities and districts which have sub
scribed and oversubscribed their quota
The time for arguments has passed. All
that can be said for the loan--and moth
ing can be said against it-has been sub
jected to frequent reiteration. To-day
the issue is plainly drawn. 1t is ques
tion whether the people of Barre are
willing to go on record as failure in
the matter of subscribing at least the
minimum fixed for this community. 1t |
is question whether the honorable rec
ord established in the first loan is to be |
by the futility of honest ef
forts in the second loan. The Peoples |
bank increased its sum total of |
subscriptions to-day from yesterdays
figure of $ll2,250 to $l2l 500. At the
Barre Savings bank, where subscriptions
hitherto received have counted nightly,
II was said this forenoon that there was
nothing ready to give out. Yesterdays
figures there were Sll2,400. The other
Two banks reported slight gains.

ANNIVERSARY AT BARNARD
Marker Concentrating First Methodist
. Church to Be Unveiled.

Barnard, Oct 27.-An event of NOR,
than passing interest will take plac,
here Nov. l and 2, when a marker vii
be unveiled on the spot where the first
Methodist Episcopal church in Barnard
and in this whole region stood and wher,
the 1871 and 1872 sessions of the New
England conference were held, BishoT
Frances Asbury presiding on the former
occasion and Bishop Enoch George or
the latter. The New England confer
ence then covered New England, and
Barnard must have been an important
point, to be chosen twice as the seat OF
conference sessions. The New England
and Vermont conferences, the latter or
ganized in lS45, are uniting in the cele-
bration.
An attractive program is promised in
cluding the name of Rev. DIR. Timothy
P. Frost, the speaker on Friday evening,
Nov. 2, one of the most distinguished
Methodists of his time, a native Yer
monter, who within a month has re-
tired to make his future home in Brad
ford, where he once served as pastor.
For the last IA years he has filled the
very important pulpit of the First church
of Evanston, ILL., Another attractive
name is that of Rev. W. NJ Newton of
Providence, r. l., native of Barnard,
whose ancestors for three generations
were interested in this Barnard church
After filling important appointments in
the Vermont conference he was trans
ferred to the New England Southern con-
ference, where his success as a pastor in
several churches has been noteworthy.
A third name of much promise is that of
Rev. DR.. William Shaw, superintendent
of the st. Johnsbury district, native of
England but regarded as the foremost
member of the Vermont conference, hav-
ing had the unusual honor of consecutive
elections as delegate to the quadrennial
general conference of the denomination.
The modest house OF worship, whose
erection 10 years ago is the nominal
cause of the present demonstration, stood
for type of heroism without which our
more recent civilization and Christianity
would not have existed.
Prominent in the large task of prepar-
ing for the event have been Rev. 4. w.
Sharp of Brattleboro, superintendent of
the Montpelier district, and Rev. Louis |.
Holway, the gifted pastor of the church, !
q member of prominent Massachusetts, |
Methodist family, who is earnestly alive |
TO the Importance of the Vermont rural |
church and of commemorsting the deeds |
of the fathers in rural fields
The first meeting on Thursday, Nov. /, |
will begin at o'clock at the present /
church in Barnard village with promi- /
nent speakers. In the evening the occa-
sionsl sermon will be preached, followed |
by the communion service Three ses-
sions on Friday, Nov. ?, will include the
dedicatory exercises proper at North
