AMERICA ABROAD"
AT COLLEGE CHAPEL

Middlebury and the surrounding
towns are to be congratulated upon
their opportunity to hear John Ken
drick Bangs in his latest and what the
present seasons success acclaims his
best lecture. He comes on Wednesday
evening, the llth, as the next number
in the entertainment course at the Col
lege.
John Kendrick Bangs needs no in
PRODUCTION to a Middlebury audience.
His name and many of his works are
familiar in the homes OF all this re-
gion. Our readers may, however, be
interested to know little more about
him and about the particular occasion
of his giving a lecture on such sub
ject as america Abroad" at this time.
Mr.. Bangs is a man fifty-seven
years of age a native American, born
at Yonkers, n Y. He graduated from
Columbia at the age of twenty-one
and then studied law for a year, but
found his tastes leaning more toward
literary work than toward the legal
profession. Much of his writing has
been serious, but he has become most
widely known as one OF the leading
American humorists. Since 1884, he has
been connected at one time or another,
as editor or associate editor, with many
of the leading periodicals, including
Life, Puck Harper's Magazine, Har-
per's Weekly, and the Metropolitan
Magazine. He is the author of be-
tween fifty and sixty volumes of prose
and verse, the most familiar of these
being probably "a House Boat on the
Styx" (and its sequel "The Pursuit
of the House Boat"), "Mr Bonaparte
of Corsica and "The Autobiography
of Methuselah"
Mr. Bangs is a man of affairs and of
public spirit, as we'll as an author In

M. H. S. Notes

The basketball team was defeated
by the Cathedral High School of Bur
lington last Friday night by a score of
29-l2. The game was played in the
Cathedral Gymnasium and there were
about seven hundred persons present.
The Cathedral team failed to score
on Middlebury in the first five minutes
of the play and everything pointed to
a close game but Helaney of the Cathe-
dral shot some clever baskets from
the floor, The first half ended 1876 in
favor Of Cathedral. In the second half
the lead was increased and when the
final whistle blew the score stood 1912.
The lineup for Middlebury: Cal
houn, Burns, Guards; Taylor, R.
Eddy, forwards; Smith. center; sub
stitutes: Eddy for Taylor Taylor for

MONTREAL SLEEPER WRECKED
First Section of Northbound Train
Leaves Rails

Sixteen people were thrown into the
icy waters of Lake Champlain and
scores of Others were thrown from
berths or jostled about the coaches
when train 81, the New York Montreal
sleeper, was derailed just south of the
drawbridge between Grand Isle and
North Hero early Saturday morning
by a broken rail, one of the sleeping
coaches going into the lake.
The train consisted of seven cars,
drawn by two engines The first en-
CINE held to the iron but the second
was derailed. The first car was the
baggage car and this was on the rails
when the train stopped. The next,
the combination smoker and mail car,
had one truck off, the next. the coach,
was entirely off the track, and the first
sleeper, the Ottawa sleeper, was off
the track and on the drawbridge. The
next, the first Montreal sleeper, was
down the bank and overturned with
one end in the water up to the win
dows and the other held up by the
piles of the drawbridge. One truck
of the next sleeper hung over and the
last car, the business car of the officials
of the road, remained on the tracks.
Immediately after the accident the
enginemen and train crew and others
set to work to get the passengers out
of the car which was in the lake. They
were wrapped in blankets, for all g..
them were in their night clothes, and
taken Immediately to the officials car
where they were made comfortable.
While the passengers were being
made comfortable the first engine was
detached and General Superintendent
G. L. R. French, who was on the off
cial car, went to North Hero to the
nearest farm house, where he tele-
phoned the Burlington telegraph opera
tor to wire the second section, the
Boston-O -Ogdensburg train, which was
waiting in the block at Grand Isle,
to proceed to the wreck as a relief
train. Within few minutes this train
arrived, the official car was attached
to it and the passengers in the other
cars transferred to it and brought back
to Burlington.
At the Union station the relief train
was met by the city ambulance, the
ambulances of Corbin & Frye, Read
& Dover and the Stacy Livery COM
pany and many of the city doctors and
the people were transferred to the
Mary Fletcher hospital and the Hotel
Vermont Those at the hospital were
put to bed and given such treatment
as they needed, most of them suffering
from slight flesh wounds but more from
the cold. Fifteen were sent to the
hospital, all of whom were sufficiently
recovered to leave for their homes the
first part of the week.

EX-GOV. GRAHAM
FOUND GUILTY

Ex-Gov Horace f. Graham was
found guilty by jury yesterday after
noon of the larceny of state funds to
the extent of many thousands of dol
lars, the u men coming to an agree
ment after having had the case less
than three hours, one of which was
spent in eating dinner.
The closing hours of the trial this
morning were taken up with the COM
pletion of the last argument by Attor-
ney General Frank c. Archibald and
the charge on the law by presiding
Judge Fred N Butler, who, according
to the many lawyers inside the bar.
gave a most comprehensive review of
the case together with the legal in
structions He said the entire case re-
solved itself into one main question,
that of intent.
Attorney General Archibald opened
his remarks this morning with That
indictment is a monument to the ef
ficacy and faithfulness of Attorney
General Barber 1t was the only hon
est thing to do, mean introducing
every order drawn by this respondent.
An honest man in this same position
would draw what was due him and
nothing more"
"If you are going to hold an indi-
vidual to the strctest honesty, why
not the public official" continued Mr..
Archibald, "If an attorney kept the
money collected for his clients he
would be in danger of facing a dis
barment proceedings. An administra-
tor for an estate is held to strict ac-
countability. A burglar is an honest
man compared TO the man who dips
his = = into the public treasury, He
is a gentleman to be commended, is
the burglar"
Attorney Archibald characterized the
claim of the defense of "No criminal
intent" as a "flimsy" excuse and he
said that if it was allowable for a
state official to get away with $4,000
at the rate of $1,000 a year and then
admit simply that he had done
wrong, then, God save the state OF
Vermont"
In closing Attorney General Archi-
bald urged the jury to remember the
fact that the divine command rested
just as heavy on Horace Graham as
it did on the humblest citizen when
the good book said Thou shalt not
steal" "The state has done or tried

Halsted School in that city He has
always had an intense interest in the
good name of his country and the well
fare of his fellow men.
Although known far and wide and
loved for his books which have brought
so much cheer, Mr.. Bangs has perhaps
gained his greatest reputation as a lee
turer This line of work he took UP
ten years ago. and during these ten
years he has lectured in forty-siX
states of the union, addressing over a
1894, he ran as a candidate for the
office Of mayor of Yonkers,-unsucces
fully, it is true He has served as
president of the Yonkers Board
of Education and as president of the
thousand audiences. He has several
lectures which won his great success
in the earlier years of his lecturing ca
reer, but the earlier success has been
eclipSed by that of the past year or
two.
The lecture which he will give on
Wednesday evening is the direct out
come of Mr. Bangs experience in the
war area of Europe. In the spring
and summer of 1918, as a representa-
tive of the American Committee for
Devastated France and as Red Cross
worker and Y M. c. A. speaker, he
Travelled throughout the region of the
Aisne and the Marne, having unusual
opportunities for observation and ad
dressing audiences of soldiers in great
numbers. Again in the summer OF 1919,
he was in France and Belgium and the
parts of Germany occupied by the
Allied troops His experience in the
devastated regions and his conversa-
tions with all sorts and conditions of
men, military and civilian, high and
low have given him a remarkable in
sight into the conditions there, and
particularly a great fund Of informa
tion as to the work of America and her
troops in Europe and the estimate in
which they are held From this sec
ond trip to the war zone, he comes
but lately, with his new lecture in
which the serious and the humorous
are mingled as he alone knows how
to mingle them. The lecture upon its
first presentation in this country pro-
voked great interest and has been
everywhere attended with success.
Lecturing in Burlington two or three
weeks ago, he stirred things up a good
deal, as our readers will remember
from the reports in the Burlington
papers. His coming here is sure to
be one of the notable events in this
years course Of lectures and musical
programs.

F. C. DYER, CANDIDATE
Salisbury Man May Be Delegate at
General Conference In May

The candidacy of Frank c. Dyer Of
Salisbury for delegate to the next gem
eral conference of the Methodist Epis-
copal Church which will be held in
Des Moines, Ia, next May, was launch
ed by the Salisbury Methodist Church
this week Mr.. Dyer if he is chosen
delegate, will have the honor OF sitting
as one of about 700 delegates from all
over the world in what is the most
important meeting Of the Methodist
Church, held every four years for the
making or amendment of the church
laws, for the appointment of bishops
and other important business.
The committee presenting Mr., Dyer's
name is composed of David w. Reid,
pastor, and A. J. Reach and w. F.
Rowell who experess the unanimous
sentiment of the official board i'll
laudng Mr.. Dyer's record as a citizen
and churchman The committee says.
"Mr Dyer has been member of the
Methodist Episcopal Church since his
early manhood and has always been
active in its interests, He has been
delegate to five Lay Electoral Con-
ferences and for more than twenty
years he has been secretary of the Bur
lington District Board of Stewards
That he has had the confidence of the
people of his home town and county
is evidenced by positions of honor and
trust which they have given him In
1896 he was a member of the House
of Representatives and in 1906 to 1910
was Assistant Judge Of the Addison
County Court In 1912 he was elected
to the State Senate by the largest ma
iority given a member of that body
that year. At the present time he is
postmaster Of his town and is direc-
tor of the Addison County Trust Com
pany. He has been particularly sue
Cessful in his business life, being now
at the head Of one of the largest retail
mercantile establishments in western
Vermont. During all these years he
has lived in a rural community and
knows its needs and its problems.
With his wide acquaintance in the CON
ference and his knowledge of men and
affairs we believe that he is eminently
qualified for membership in the next
General Conference"

WEATHER SEVEREST
IN MANY YEARS

All the local weather records were
broken Saturday when the thermom-
eter registered 36 degrees below. This
is colder than has ever been recorded
since commencement of official records
in 1884, and is colder than is known in
the incomplete records which were
started in 1871 nearly half century
ago. The intense cold caused train
wrecks, fires and extensive trouble with
water and frozen pipes. The weather
gradually moderated and Sunday night
the temperature was more than 81
degrees higher than for the "a hours
preceding
The weather bureau for this section
shows the January just passed, to have
been the coolest month since a record
of the weather was kept. The weather
two years ago was considered very Sc
we're, but the month just completed
averaged nearly three degrees colder
The average temperature two years
ago was nine degrees, compared with
GA this year. The coldest January on
record next to last month was in 1912,
when the average was eight above.
Considerable damage was expert
enced in town Sunday. At the store
of G. J. Duncan a section of pipe about
six inches long burst and wet some
newly vanished furniture of Mr. Dun
cans to the amount of 500. The water
then leaked to the floor below where
it damaged quite an amount of goods
belonging to the Middlebury Supply
store.
At the home of W. ]. Wood on Court
street Sunday morning the hot water
front of the stove burst and did con-
siderable damage to the stove. No one
was in the kitchen at the time, Mr..
Wood having just gone into another
room
At the Court House the water tank.
over the County Clerks office burst,
doing quite an amount of damage to
Mr.. Wainwright's office.
