Unmolested by any of the property
guardians who have jealously watched
the buildings within the enclosure, Ayers
street youngsters have succeeded in re.
ducing TO ashes the little building that
long stood near the approach TO the main
entrance at the Granite City trotting
park. The celebrators chose the MONDAY
glare to fire the building in honor of the
allied victory, and there was no one to
interfere. The property is owned by the
Central Vermont railroad, which acquired
the park for freight terminal back in
the days when there were visions of a
double railroad system that would thread
Milestone hill like golf ball. The ticket
station, where so many bally-ho men
have shouted their pasteboard wears in
years agone, made a splendid bonfire.
Supt +. G. Mayo of the White Noun
tain division OF the Boston a. Maine
railroad, who is also superintendent Of

Yesterday and to-day Supt j. Il. Maun
and j. l.. Dempsey of st. Adams, with
IN. w. Hawkes. of Boston, the Central
Vermont freight agent, were in the city

Weather conditions were shaped to the
liking of the hunters to-day, for the
morning witnessed heavy fall of dense
snow. Here in the city returning sun
shine promised to obiterate the layer OF
snow which covered roofs and other parts
Of the landscape, but out in the country,
and especially in the woods, the snow
doubtless will linger long enough to make
the task of the deer hunter comparative
ly easy Thus far the seasons killing
has not developed surfeit of yenison
here in town. Early in the week B, w.
Goodfellow brought home buck, but the
animal was killed in Maine Last night
Henry f. Russ had for company on his
way home from Granville a 250pound
buck, which he shot in the afternoon 1t
was exhibited at the Smith & Cummings
market to-day. The only other deer to
be exhibited here is a siEeable buck which
party of hunters consisting of James
G.. Prize of Graniteyille, D. W. Mcdonald
and H. S. Parks brought back from Mid
dlesex yesterday.
