YOUNGER ENVOY THAN GEDDES

Sir Auckland Geddes is not the most
 youthful ambassador ever sent to rep
 resent Great Britain abroad. Lord
 Granville was only 30 when he went
 to Petrograd as ambassador in 1904.
 The Russian ambassador in London prophesied that Granville would prove
 a failure because of his passion for gambling. But though Granville,
 during his whole career, is said to have lost over 300,00O Pound Sterling at gambling, he refrained from this amusement during his two years at Petrograd.
 He was given the difficult task of persuading Alexander I to assist in forming coalition against Napoleon, who had just then been proclaimed emperor. The czar succombed to Granville's cajolery, and in August, 1895, treaty was signed by which money and Russia to provide troops Great Britain agreed to provide money and Russia to provide troops with the view of crushing Napoleon, the amount being 1,250,000 P. s for every hundred thousand men. After this the ambassador returned home, but was soon sent back to Petrograd with the object of enlarging this agreement His second mission proved  a failure owing to Alexander's cruh- ing defeat at Friedland and the sub- sequent treaty of Tilsit, which made France, not Great Britain the ally of Russia. A daughter-in-law of the juvenile ambassador still survives in the person of Castalia Lady Granville -one of the last links with the days of Napoleon and Pitt.-Detroit News.

FIVE BOYS
FINED FOR
' JOY RIDING
Court Makes Youths Realize
Seriousness of Taking
Automobiles

The recent Disappearance Of
three automobiles III st. John.,buly
the past month N.a explained when
six boys ;pncarc | in municipal court
Thursday afternoon and plcadc"!
guilty to the charge Of taking and
operating automobiles without the
owners consent. 1t appeared in the
courtc Of the trial that on the night
Of May 10 two of the boys took the
Covcny car on Il trip, which was af-
forwards found a the U. S. Fish
Hatchery, and on the evening Of June
Is all Of the boys were in Tic car
that belonged to David Wright Of
Lancaster. This was taken from the
Colonial Thcatcr and afterwards
found at the Plymouth Creamery.
The Court impressed upon the
boys the seriousness CT their oiTcnse
a"d told them that they were all
old enough to know better. He said
that besides violating the laws of
TIC state they were taking great
chances in opcratin@ anothcr's ma
chine in the night and that such pro-
ccedings must stop. lie said the
Court would adopt the same prccc-
dent established in a similar case
ard five of the boys were sentenced
to pay fine Of $50 and each had
costs added of Si0.o5. Ono-half of
the fine was suspended and all the
boys were placed in charge of the
State department OF Charities and
Probation.
In the case Of the sixth boy, who
was under 1G, the Court could i'm
pose no fine, but he was asked to pay
s. to each of the other five boys to
help them pay their fine and was
also placed on probation. The Court
further told each boy that he must
earn the money himself to pay the
fine.
The boys are from IA to 10 years
old, five residing in st. Johnsbury
and ono at Burke, and BECAUSE OF
their age and the fact that they ncv-
cr realized the seriousness of their
adventures, their names arc not
printed.

FOURTH OF JULY
Committees Vote to Help

National Holiday

Committees from the w r.. Knapp
Post of the American Legion, the
st. Johnsburv Elhs and the Com
mcrcial Club mot rcccntlv TO con5id-
CT having = celebration on July 5.
After considering the matter from
all angles it was decided to postpone
any observance OF the day until an
other year. The committees felt that
it WAS prctt-- late to arrange for Il
suitable celebration, and they also
realized that with biz celebration
in Newport it would be impossible to
get many here from communities
north OF St. Johnsbury. 1t was felt
that it would promote the commune
ty spirit if the ST. Johnsbury pcople
helped Newport with the expectation
that when it came the formers turn
to celebrate the people from the city
On the border would be glad to join
with all in the scale town in a proper
observance of the day.
