Every member of the cast is a star and the audiences have been well pleased with the performances. A new show will be presented to the public at the Pictorium this evening entitled. “Nine Lives of a Cat.” This is a comic film that is bound to please the public and those desiring to see a good show should not fail to see this. The Montpelier tax rate for next year is right at the top notch, in fact, you have to stand on your tip-toe to touch it with the end of your fingers. The city tax is $2.58 and when the county and state $2.02, is added the sum total is $4.60. Montpelier citizens when they go to paying taxes i under this rate will begin to believe 'that the white man’s burden is a heavy one-almost too heavy to carry and stand erect. Frank Braden, a one-armed tramp was arrested last evening by Sam Frank and lodged in jail to answer to a charge of drunk and disorderly conduct. Braden was arraigned this morning before Mayor Coffee and plead guilty to the charge, but said if turned loose he would leave the city. He said he was bound for Portl *“ d ’ where he had a job in view. The ’ Mayor sized him up and thought he , needed a rest and fined him a dollar and costs and he will spend a few I days with Sheriff Meyer.
