DRAFT EVADER IS
HELD FOR SENTENCE
Young Man in st. Johnsbury Admits
That He Had Never Registered
Although %.

ST. JOHNSBURY, Sept 10 States
Attorney Campbell has rounded up
man that had successfully escaped all
registrations and drafts and was about
to leave town fearing that he might be
caught in the coming draft. He had been
working for the past two months at the
Fairbanks scale factory and was brought
before the local board for examination
by Officer Wallace.
4t the first examination before the
local board he had rather improbable
tale. He said his name was Eugene
Marrisse Bailey, that he was p years Old
and that he registered at the town hall i'm
Boston in 1917. He said he never re-
ceived his registration certificate. but
did receive a call for a physical eXamiua-
/ ton He said he took physical exam
nation, but he did not remember where
the place was. He said he never received
i a QUESTIONABLE and that his real home
was at . Summer street. Boston.
4 The local board was not satisfied with
his story and ordered him committed to
the county jail.
i Later Sheriff Worthen brought him
back to tell the real story to the local
board. This time he said his name was
\ Eugene Benoit He said he had never
registered anywhere. had never been in
Boston but once and that his real home
was at Morse's line which he said was
I 10 miles from St Adams He had evaded
registering by moving from place to
place, timing his exodus Just the time Of
the different drafts He tried to explain
that he was leaving St Johnsbmy now
to 60 to his sick father, but this was not
believed by the local board as he could
not produce the letter that he claimed
had been sent him about his fathers i'll
ness
The local board ordered him taken back
to jail and the case is now in the hands
OF the federal authorities The adiutant
general at Montpelier and United States
District Attorney Billiard at Burlington
have been informed of the case and some
action is expected at once

BURLINGTON. Sept 19.-An inter

SOLDIERS REJOICE
AT WILSON'S REPLY
Peace Note Called Trick by Troops at
Front Who Applaud Pres
ident's Note.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, Sept, l9-From the manner in
which the American army received the
news of President Wilson's reply to
Austria Hungary's peace note, its atti-
tude might be characterized as one of
grim approval
The report Of the Austrian suggestion
that peace conference be held circulated
rapidly from headquarters far in the rear
to the front line trenches and the officers
and men alike expressed the belief that
none of the allied governments, certainly
not theirs, would yield to what they re
garded as a trick of the central powers
to gain time.
As the news of President Wilson'S brief
answer moved steadily toward the out
posts and was passed on by one soldier
to another, there was feeling of relief
among the officers of high rank and am air
OF satisfaction among the enlisted men
| The attitude of the soldiers. often re-
I peated was:
Sure. he won't. The kaiser can't put
over anything like that on him.

slightly Scared by war, has all the en-
! thusiasm that characterizes all armies al
the beginning of hostilities. The Ameri
