-'l. R. M.. No. 2d, a masked dance
was held in Red Men's Hall, Wushing-'
portrstreet, last evening. The mils-
querade was a marked success. al-
though the number who attended it
was not so large as in former years.‘
The nllmber present just comfortably
ruled the hull and a very pleasant ev-‘
Mung was enjoyed.
The mom was prettily decorated for;
Hie. occasion. Tile color bpbeme was.
red. white and blue. and crepe papexi
at these colors was strung all over
the room. American flags tastefully!
draped on the; walls added greatly to'
tile beautifying of the hall.
\lnny of the costumes ,were teem-
lmzly clever alld handsome. Red Cross
4m‘tulllt‘s were prominent and clown
VulLS were also used to a large extent?
The costumes of John H. Gallagher;
and Burnett 0. Weeks deserved special4
mention“ as they surely proved to be
mind disguises. Mr. Gallagher took}
the part of an old-fashioned German:
and Mr. Weeks was made up as a'
’Hebrew. _
Refreshments and ice cream were
dispensed.
Excellent music was furnished by
the Frank Field's orchestra for the
dancing. During the latter part of the
evening. two delightful solos were ren-
dered by Jaseph McLaughlin, accom-
panied by Archie Merriam on the
piano.
Two door prizes were offered. and
the first consisted of $2 and the second
31. They were won by Edward Valen-
tino and Miss Grace Gaming. “
Dancing was continued until a lat
hour. _ A good deal of the credit for
the'success of the dance is due. to the
hard working committee and it con-
sisted of the following: John H. 631-
lagher, B. 0. Weeks. Harry G. Gu-
nung. B. J. Thomes. Elbert Ferris,
.. pod P. J. Oliver.

STAFFORD SPRINGS. Dev. 9."-
William 1). Luson. the only survivor of
the automobile load of six men struck
at a crossing about a mile and a half
below here by the passenger train
coming from the south on the Central
Vermont Railway Thursday afternoon
shortly after 4 o'clock. who was taken
to the Johnson Memorial Hospital. was
able no give his version of the acci-
dent yesterday. He says the men
started from the house of George L.
Dennis about 5:05 p. in. and arrived
at the scene of the accident‘in about
seven minutes. Luson was on the back!
seat with three other‘men. Prestonl
Osterbout. the owner of the car.
was driving; and Andrew S. Swan—
son was on the seat with him. Lason
saw the engine near the crossing as
the automobile was abOut to reach
that point and heard 0l|erh0ut say
something about pulling the lever.
He remembers nothing after em but
a terrible noi as the automobile
and engine co ed. He cannot say
just how the two machines came
together. but thinks Osterhout tried
to turn to the left Lo avoid'the colli-
sion and was unable to clear the
engine. It is thought that Swanson
was carried onto-the railroad bridge
about 100 feet from the crossing and
dropped through it to the place
where he‘was fodnd below. as there
is hair-on the bridge from at the
place. through which he apparently
dropped. 4
The bodies of the dead men have
all-been taken to their bmby
