cAMPAIGNERs NAMED.
For the Red Cross Drive in Barre Next
= Thursday

A smooth working organization OF
experienced campaigners is being per-
fected by the Barre chapter Of the
American Red Gross in anticipation OF
the annual roll call next Thursday.
An echo Of stirring activities during
the World war is found in the enthu-
siasm with which the committees have
already entered upon the preliminary
work. If the public measures its re-
sponse by the local needs of the Red
Cross, then Barre's quota is already
assured.
A line OF action often followed in
war drives win be utilized by the gem
eraI committee in carrying out its can
vass Nov. 16 No. Keith avenue,
the newly established headquarters of
the Barre Red Cross, will be the center
for outlying activities that are calcu-
lated to cover every corner of Barre
and vicinity. One day of intensive
solicitation is all that ought to be
needed to realize Barre's quota, and
the long list of canvassers, divided as
they are into teams, viii make their
best headway if the public will be
ready with its contributions.
Today the following assignments
we're announced at Red Cross head

As Animal Was Charging on Barre
Hunters.

Judge Z. L. Scott and james Pirie
OF this city returned to the city yes
terday from Maidstone with catch

fell to their lot after thrilling fight.
Sighting the bear ambling off through
the woods they fired at 1t and only
succeeded in inficting dangerous
wound, which enraged the beast so
that he turned and charged them
Eight shots were poured from blaz-
ing rifles into vital parts Of his body
but still the bear would not drop,
and it was only when one Of the shots
drove out four of its front teeth and
pierced its throat, at distance of Is
feet, that il succnmbed and lay before
the happy pair

vile Row.

Middlebury, Nov l0,--The case Of
State VS.. Wallace Cox, who is charged
with as assault with intent to kill
Arthur Dussault in Granville, August
IS, was begun yesterday in an extra
ordinary term Of county court.
Cox is a farmer in Granville and
workmen employed upon an adjoining
farm testified that at distance Of
rs to 80 rods they saw Cox and Dus-
sault apparently quarreling ON the Cox
premises, that they saw Dussault grab
something from Cox and throw it to-
ward the Cox house; that Dussault's
team ran away from the vicinity and
Dussault followed after it. Then Cox,
thty said went into the house and came
out with gun, which he fired down the
road in the general direction which
Dussault had taken.
The charge did not take any effect
upon Dussault or anybody else and no
damage was done further than the
wasting Of a charge of ammunition
but il II claimed that this firing of
the gun in Dussauhs direction cons
tituted an assault with intent to kill
