 covered By Gang.

Qssining, N.

They had been living in q holG six feet square and almost six feet deep, which the prison officials believe, had been dug before their arrival two weeks ago. It was covered with boards, over which had been placed l fcot Of loose earth and top Of that another foot Of snow and ice. The, entrance WiIS also cov- cred with boards and earth. Their hiding place was betrayed when Warden LaHes noticed d mixture of clay and snow near the spot. Thirty keepers with pickaxes soon uncovered the fugitivcS-
 The rrisoners told the warden they expected to remain in the dugout for two or three weeks, hoping that the search would be abandoned, then they would scale the prison wall at night. They st pplied themselves from some unknown source with potatoes, bread, canned vegetables, blankets, extra suits of underwear, several tins of ''canned heat and a frying pan.
 As the first pick crashed through the roof of the dugout ,one of the men shouted, "Bo careful. We're in here. We'll come out"
 They were placed in solitary con- finement.

GENERAL WOODS STATEMENT.

Whatever he did say in his address in
Boston last Sunday, Major General
Leonard Wood now desires to have it
known that he does not call the United
States navy "a floating death trap" but
il Of the belief that first class ships
filed with unframed men do not mean
q navy, but are sometimes death trap
to those who are in them" The latter
phrasing is far more satisfactory than
the former and, indeed, the first pu<.
lished report of Major General Wood S
address was interpreted by many to
mean that the navy might become a
floating death trap" through the in
experience and lack of training of the
men who might be assembled on the
ships instead of being interpreted as a
bald assertion that the United States
navy is, in fact, death trap at the
present time. A great deal of misun-
Outstanding develops in the reporting
OF public addresses. Sometimes the re-
porter's ears deceive him; sometimes
the speaker declares in the heat of the
argument some things which, under
cold consideration, he would not have
uttered; sometimes the reports are
changed unintentionally in the news
paper Offices in the rush and hurry Of
the preparation of the article for the
daily issue. In this particular instance
Major General Woods address was tax
en- down by a stenographer and report
ed by the stenographer TO the press;
but it is conceded that even an expert
stenographer may make mistakes just
as public speaker may make mistakes
of judgment. In any event, the Incl
dent should teach us all the need OF the
exercise Of great care whether il be in
reporting a public address or in pre-
pairing and delivering that address,
especially when the address is delivered
by candidate for president of the
United States.

GREAT CONCERT ASSURED.
Will Be Given at Montpelier Feb. 9 By
Russian Symphony Orchestra.

When the Humanitarian Cult In New
York, one OF the influential bodies in
that city, determined to arrange for
what they termed "The Greatest Con
cert OF the Age" the famous Russian
Symphony orchestra was engaged,
which is announced to appear at Mont

The largest available auditorium in
New York City is the Madison Square
Garden, where this concert took place,
and it will go down on record as the
most stupendous aggregation Of musi-
cal talent ever gathered together on
one program. outside of some of the
war benefits which have been given on
such gigantic scale. In addition to
the orchestra conducted by Modest
Altschuler, there appeared Nine. Schn-
mann Heink, the noted contralto; Nine,
Frances Aida, the great soprano; Clio
vann Martinelli, tenor, and Giuseppe
de Luca, baritone, all from the Metro
politan opera house. As though this
great quartet were not enough, there
were thrown in for good measure
group of violin solos by Mischa Elman
and piano numbers by Percy Grain
ger.
Such feast of good things brought
ont an audience OF thousands, and
thunderous applause greeted the differ
ent soloists and the orchestral numbers.
There was the familiar patriotic touch
when the program opened with "The
Star Spangled Banner" and later on
when the new "Hymn of Free Russia
was played without announcement.
Although it was not even composed
ten months ago, the audience gave
proof that the GretsehanioiT song, so
simple and yet so stirring, is already
familiar, for everyone. rose to his feet
and remained standing till number
had been played three times. This inn
pressive Russian anthem, not so well
known, here, will be played at the com

A correspondent of The Times writes
to remind us of the prediction OF John
Burroughs, the naturalist, which was
made as far back as early December
that the winter of l9lo-20 promised to
be very hard because hundreds of Arctic
birds, rarely known to visit the United
States and apparently unacquainted
with man, had made their way as far
south rs Maine and Michigan. This
visitation, according to the naturalist,
indicated very severe weather. 1t must
be admitted that the prediction of the
birds has come true in large measure,
and with the winter only half gone.

this day the attention of
people throughout the country is be-
ing directed to the Importance of
making a Will.
In the event of unforeseen accident

value in the protection of property

make one. In a great many cases this
plan is never carried out.
To-day, while the matter is before
your mind, is the time to have your
Will drawn. Tomorrow you may not
think of it. See your lawyer to-day,
and observe "Make-a-Will Day." by
having YOUR Will drawn.

of 2l-l9. The game throughout was

concerning the game at Ashland the
visiting team got all that was coming
to them. At the end OF Pie first period
Woodsville led by two points. Ashland
