State guard troops continue to pa

There was no repetition during the
night of the rioting and looting
which marked the first 48 hours of
the strike and only%a few arrests for
minor offenses were made.
The policeman's union voted unan-
imously at a meeting last night to
accept the suggestion made by Pres
ident Samuel Gompers Of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, that they
return to work on tne standing they
had before the strike began Tuesday
night, pending formal consideration
of the controversy at President Will

Whether the strike can be settled
upon this basis is problematical. Gov
ernor Coolidge and Commissioner of
Police Curtis have been insistant that
the men are deserters and that they
cannot be arbitrated with.

big BERTHA
FIRED AT PARIS
THROUGH MISTAKE
Its Range Was Twice What
What the Germans
Expected

"The Germans found that they
could fire on Paris with their Big
Bertha through mistake. The gun
was as great a surprise to the Ger
mans as it was to the people OF
France"
This is the surprising statement Of
Robert Haven Schauffler, a Boston
author and musician, who served as
an officer with the American army
for tvs years. The "inside story of
the Big Bertha, which sent its shells
crashing into Paris on that ncver-to-
be-forgotten Good Friday is told for
the first time. Mr.. Schaufflcr, known
to the public through his books and
his contributions to the Atlantic
Monthly and other magazines, got
the story about the big gun from a
German major, in whose home he
was billeted when on detached SER
vice in town in the Rhine province,
While the two were talking about
the guns used by the various armies
during the war their conversation
narrowed down to the "Big Bertha"
that had shelled Paris, and the Ger
man major remarked casualty.
"The inventor is a personal friend
of mine-the gun that fired on Paris
was under my personal observation
for months"
Then and there Mr.. Schauffler
made vow to find out the principle
on which the gun worked, although
the major refused to tell him the de-
tails. They continued; their cqnver-
sation about the gun, and
Mr.. Schauffler advanced one theory
after another. Finally he said: "If
l guess the principle will you tell ne
if am right?"
The major agreed. Mr.. Schauffler
guessed right, and the major went
on to tell him the rest of the story.
Four of these "Big Berthas" had
been built. The gun which shelled
Dunkirk, and which later exploded,
killing several members Of the gun
crew, was "Number g." Number 8"
fired on Paris. This was the gun
which the major knew about.

BRILLIANT
MUSICALE AT
UNDERCLYFFE
Boston Artists Delight a
Large and Appreciative
Audience

Rarely is it given a st. JohnsburJ
audience to listen to concert of sucl
exceptionally fine merit, as the one
given at Underclyffe on Friday eve
ming under the auspices of the loca
Red Cross. The recital was given by
Miss Anne Gulick and Miss Bertha
Wesselhoeft Swift of Boston, Miss
Gulick being the pianist, and Miss
Swift soprano soloist.
Miss Gulick's playing was of a high
order, combining both brilliancy and
delicacy in her vivid interpretations
Especially pleasing was her rendition
of "Valse Oublee" by Listz, a selec-
ton not often heard on the concert
program, and one which, because of
its sentiment, called forth the musical
temperament of the artist. In Pad
erewski's composition, "Cracovienne
Fantastique," forceful, brilliant and
dashing, one recognized the direct OPP
posite in character, with big tones
and excellent technique,-equally
pleasing.
Miss Swift was at her best, and
captivated her audience with her ar
tistic singing, showing her apprecia-
ton and understanding of beauty of
every kind and interpreting the same
thro' the medium of song. She loses
herself in her music, yet retains that
artistic restraint and poise which is
the mark of genius. Miss Swift was
very ably accompanied by Miss Alice
B. Warden, of st. Johnsbury. .
The artists were presented by the
president of the local chapter, Mrs.
II. w. Blodgett, who spoke most ap-
preciatively of the desire and willing
ness of Miss Swift to do her bit to
aid in local Red Cross work. The
chapter also desires to express their
gratitude to Mr.. and Mrs. Frank H.
Brooks for opening their home to the
concert
The following program with en-
cores by both artists was given:
Maman, dites-moi

ENDS BECAUSE
OF POOR WEATHER
Com. Winds Up Fair Friday
Morning When Grounds
are Flooded by Rain

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION.
Sept. 13-The deluge of water
Thursday night which left the Yer
mont State Fair grounds submerged
to the depth of several feet in places
caused the State Fair Commission tc
close the fair and yesterday af-

In reality the fair had been fav-
ored with just one day and half OF
pleasant weather since the opening

the revenue received will defray all
expenses.
Not only did it rain all Thursday
night, but it poured all day yester-
day. When the decision was made to
close the fair no admission charge
was made those who cared to enter
and there were quite number who
had come from a distance who wad-
ed around as best they could to see
the wet down sight.
The weather has not discourage
ed the State Fair Commission. In
fact, during the heaviest part of the
rain yesterday it buckled on its ar
NOR and resolved that it would be-
gin preparations at once for the Yer
mont State Fair of 1920.

conducted at the Extension Service
