THE BARRE DAILY TIMES, BARRE,. VT., FRIDAY, MAI' 29,
All Honor . to the Heroes
of 1864
Decoration Day cannot fail to bring to our minds the terrible
hardships endured by the men and women of 50 years ago, while
they were fighting for the right. The contrast between their mode
of life and ours makes our modern conveniences seem almost lux
urious. Especially noteworthy is the vast improvement which
has been made in the last half-century in the manufacturing and
selling of merchandise.. Nowadays everyone, in every part of this
great land, can purchase fashionable, up-to-the-minute' apparel
practically as soon as it is shown in the big cities. Particularly
is this true in Barre, where Fitts is always on the alert to secure
the new ideas in desirable merchandise right when they are newest.

who passes in front of the store.
Against a background effected by a large
United States 11a?, is shown an old fash
ioned steel engraving of the sixth Mas
sachusetts regiment passing through Bal
timore. It was there in 1801 that the
first blood of the Rebellion was shed.
I.'nder the command of Colonel Robert
Shaw of Boston, the sixth regiment of
infantry started to en train at Balti
more. While marching through the
streets of the Maryland eity, the north
ern soldiers were attacked by a mob of
men armed with pistols, knives, clults,
etc. Their aggressive attitude finally
burst into sporadic attacks on the in
fantry men, who returned the fire from
the men with pistols. There were cas
ualties on both sides. The, picture is a
contemporary representation of the af
fair and was loaned for exhibition pur
poses by O. T. Robinson.

chase supplies for the lumber camp. In
the past year he has been working In
the woods around Strafford, N. H., and
in Essex county, this state. According
to the allegation of the state. Dolly shot
and killed one Peter Poulin, another
woodsman, as the two, with a third man,
the camp cookee. were returning home
from Hloomfield village. His arrest fol
lowed the discovery of the body the day
aft the shooting. , Recently the re
spondent was admitted to $5,000 bail,
which his friends furnished. A large
number of his acquaintances have circu
lated a subscription paper with which
they hope to obtain a defense fund, when
the case comes to trial in the fall. Here
in this locality Dolly bad a pood reputa
tion among the lumbermen.

Not an Isolated Case
Many Similar Cases in Barre and
Vicinity
This Barre woman's story
given here i3 not an isolated case
by any means : week after week,
year after year, our neighbors
are telling similar good news.
Mrs. N. M. Nelson, 20 Mer:
chant St., Barre, Vt., says: "A
severe attack of la grippe left
my kidneys weak and instead of
getting better, I became worse.
The slightest housework tired
me, and if I was on my feet for
an hour or so, sharp pains across
my back made me stop and rest.
I paid out over one hundred dol
lars for doctors' treatment and
medicine, but got no relief and
finally became discouraged.
Doan's Kidney Pills were then
brought to my attention and I
used them. They removed the
trouble and I have never been
without a supply on hand since."
