PETROGRAD, May 16.-The
provisional gopernment decided to-
day to reject the terms under
which the soldiers and workmen's
council preferred coalition in a new
government.
The councils insistence on GER
tain matters of foregn policy was
the demand which the duma lead
els refused to approve.
The provisional government
heads held the government could
not make the remuneration of prin-
ciples announced formally April 9
which was practically made neces-
sary by full acceptance of the
councils terms.
DEMAND MILIUEorF'S HEAD.
The decision came after many ele-
ments in Petrograd had hailed with re-
lief the action of the council in voting
forty-one to nineteen for acceptance of
the dun1a governments offer of a coali-
offer. The terms of the councils ac-
ceptance were not made public except
it was hinted that they had demanded
Foreign Minister Miliukoff must not ap-
pear in the reorganized cabinet.
From the governments rejection of
the proposal today it appears the coun-
Gil went much further than mere de-
mand for Miliukoff's head and possibly
+od al -.
the new coalition government of GER
tain agreements with the allies The
duma governments rejection declared
il was impossible to expect Russia to
renounce the principles cnunciated
April O.
The government further insisted. the
council was told. that 1t was necessary
to confirm the unity of all allied forces
on all fronts and to wage energetic
struggle against internal anarchy.

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

George johnson of Cuttingsville re-
ceived a great price for 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 peddler came along and of
fcred him So 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 $l5, both of which offers We're de-
clined.
The would-be purchaser was persist
ent and tainted Mr.. johnson by re-
marking that if he was a "sport' he
would set some price on the skin. Where
upon the Cuttingsville man said that if
the furbuyer 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 a beautiful
specimen of a silver grey fox, and didn 7
realize the value of the rare animal.

BANK WILL HELP
BOYS AND GIRLS
To Furnish Money on Unsecured
Notes for Raising Pigs
Vermont National Backs County Club
Also Offers to Furnish Prizes to Be
Awarded at Valley Fair.

Because of its appreciation of the
work of County Agricultural Agent
Arthur w. Sweeton the past three years
and because it realizes that the pros
perity of the community depends large
ly upon the agricultural industry, the
Vermont National bank of Brattleboro
has made generous offer to the boys
and girls of Windham county.
The offer is in connection with the
Pig club movement inaugurated by the
national department of agriculture and
adopted in several states, including
Vermont, and as a result of it a club
will be organized III Windham county
The bank offers to furnish money
for any boy or girl in this county with
which to buy pig to raise, subject to
rules which Mr.. Sweeton and others
will prescribe, taking unsecured notes
for the payment of the loans when the
pigs have been sold in the fall.
1t offers also to furnish prizes to be
awarded at the Valley fair, i'll addi-
ton to the prizes offered by the Yer
mont Bankers association to the mem
| bers of the state club So far as is
known here, this is the first county
club to be contemplated.
While the rules have not yet been
formulated, it is understood that it will
not be necessary for a boy or girl to
compete for a prize in order to take
advantage of the bank offer, but sim
ply to enroll as member of the club.
The farm bureau greatly appreciates
the offer of the local bank and will be
glad to cooperate with it III this work.
1t also appreciates the attitude of the
bank officials toward the farm bureau
work.
George B. Whitney of Townshend,
farm bureau committee on boys and
girls work, the bank directors and the
county agent are working on a set of
rules to govern the pig club, and these
will be published shortly.
The Plymouth Trust Co.. of Brock
ton, Mass. has distributed young pigs
to boys and girls in this way and the
results have been very pleasing. The
first year they had 1S9 applicants and
every boy and girl was ready to pay
fall. 1t will not be possible to carry
on the pig club movements on as large
a scale here, but there should be q
good number of boys and girls who
would like to take advantage of the
offer.
Boys and girls should be benefited
in three ways, at least. First, it will
give them valuable experience in car
ing for the pig; second, it will give
them business experience i'll dealing
with bank; third, it will give them
chance to earn some money.
The Vermont Bankers association
was very much pleased with its pig
growing contest as carried out last
year. 1t will be continued on a larger
scale this year. A good number OF
Windham county boys and girls en-
tered this contest last year, but many
were prevented because they did moi
have the pigs. This year the pigs arc
made available by the offer of the
Vermont National bank.

Three Grandchildren in One Day.

This is the story of a woman who
became a great grandmother three
times in one day and right in success
sion.
Mrs. Title Berkovitz 70 years old, of
81 Roberts street, with her 3 new little
great grandsons in her arms, with her
30 grandchildren and her 6 sons and
daughters about her, says that there IS
nothing in the whole world she loves
as much as babies.
She was seated at the breakfast table
when one of her 80 grandchildren, j.
Bergar, came rushing into the, house
with his eyes as large as saucers.
cit IS a boy,' he cried, "a bouncing
boyl He Weighs" and he poured out
n flow of speech that well-nigh
drowned the little grandmother.
But she rose CALAMITY to the situa-
ton, smiled sympathotically upon her
grandson and without waiting to finish
her breakfast ran with him to his
home, at $50 Fulton street.
But before half an hour was up an
other grandson, X. Bruff, of 2128 Cen
ter avenue, came in all out of breath
with excitement. He didn t even wait
to congratulate his brother-inlaw, but
when he finally found his voice he
suffered: Rachel-Rachel just gave
birth to a boy. She wants you right
away and Mrs. Berkovitz hurried to
the Bruff home, where there was an
other baby boy
The grandmother had just returned
home when third grandson, A.
Abrams, of 1873 Erin street rushed into
tho house without a hat
"Baby boy he gasped, "and he
looks exactly like me. "-Pittsburgh

ment at the expense of the safe, as
