BURLINGTON DAILY NEWS, THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 3, 1921. 1 I JACKSON AGAIN ELECTED MAYOR City Ice Supply Harvested; Price Will Be Set Later fArrincess oi I Mars I Unarmed and naked as I was, the first law of nature manifested Itself In the only possible solution of my Immediate problem, and that was to get out of the vicinity of the point of the charging -spear. Consequently I gave a very earthly and at the same time superhuman leap to reach the top of the Martian Incubator, for such I had determined it must be. My effort was crowned with a success which appalled me no less than It March 2, 1921 THE OLD BEE HIVE Spring Displays of WASH FABRICS Are Notable for Beauty Quality and Assortments This is a showing that is proving so pleasing to scores of interested shoppers and purchasers. They are displayed in all their- beauty and elegance on the main floor.

Many are distinct novelties and must be seen to fully appreciate the loveliness of the new patterns and Defeats McKillip by 465 Majority; Several Ward Npsets; Caisse Defeated by Lambert J. Holmes Jackson was re-elected Mayor of the City of Burlington on the Democratic ticket Tuesday by the overwhelming majority of 465 votes over his Republican opponent William B. McKillip. The election result fully i justified the predictions of the NEWS from the partial returns printed in yesterday's edition of the paper. Several decided upsets In the figuring of the politicians occurred in the various wards.

Ward' One always strongly republican gave McKillip a majority of only 72 votes and in the sixth ward which haa genenlly been Republican Dr. Jackson polled a majority of 30 votes. The heaviest Jackson vote came from ward three where the Mayor received 331 majority over his opponent The big surprise of the day, however, was the defeat of Charles Caisse for re-election by John B. Lambert, running on a citizens' ticket, by a vote of 17 majority. Throughout the day the politicians were active in this ward and just previous to the closing of the polls it became evident that the result would be close.

A demonstration of the citizens in the ward who had supported Lambert was held In the evening in front of his house on Lafountain street testified to the interest in his election. In Ward One W. H. Crockett was elected over J. Fred Lynch for alderman by a majority of 170 votes; in Ward Two, Michael Frank won over George Clarey by a majority of 198 in Ward Three Lambert defeated Caisse by 17 votes: in Ward Four F.J.

Dwyer defeated his opponent F. Norman by 161; in Ward Five Alderman Hanbridge was re-elected by a majority of 60; and in Ward Six Alderman Patrick was re-elected by a majority of 101 over his opponent John Kelley. The r3ult of the alder Burlington's supply of Ice for domestic use haa now been secured and about 5,000 tons has been brought in by train from Al-burg, where It was harvested by use of railroad apparatus. The cold storage ice is stilt being: harvested in the slips but though the winter has been the mildest in years, there is now ho doubt that this city will be supplied with. ice.

The price of the commodity will not be fixed as yet. The normal consumption in Burlington is about 12,000 tons. H. S. CHAMPIONS TO MEET HERE U.

V. M. Plans to Offer Prize to Winning Team of Four State Leaders The annual dispute over the state championship in high school basketball will not be necessary this year, if plans formed by Athletic Director Engle of the University of Vermont and Manager Haigh of the V. M. basketball team are worked out.

The plan Is to hold a championship series between the four leading teams of the state in the University Gymnasium on March 18 and 19. The University will offer a large cup for the winner of the series and will pay half the expenses of visiting teams. One of the contestants will be the champions of the Northern League, and the other three will be leading teams in other sections of the state. As the season progresses, rivalry between the different schools will doubtless grow stronger because of the chance offered by the new plan to settle the state school basketball championship beyond any question. Burlington High School is now leading the Northern League, with Srmuldine Hisrh second and St.

A. 0. MoOlnrg Co.) CHAPTER II. My Advent op Mars. I opened my evesi upon a strange and weird landscape, knew that I was on Mars not once did I question either my sanity or my wakefulness.

It was midday, the sun was shining Suit upon me and the heat of it was rather intense upon my naked body, yet no greater than would have been true under similar conditions on an Arizona desert. A little to my left, perhaps a hundred yards, appeared a low, walled enclosure about four feet in height. No water, and no other vegetation than, moss was in evidence, and as I vas somewhat thirsty I determined to do a little explorlne. Springing to my feet I received my first Martian surprise, for the effort, which on Earth would have brought me standing upright, carried me into the Martian air to the height of about three yards. I alighted softly upon the ground, however, without appreciable shock or jar.

Now commenced tt series of evolutions which even then seemed ludicrous in the My muscles, perfectly attuned and accustomed to the force of gravity on Parth, played the mischief with me In attempting for the first time to cope with the lesser gravitation and lower eir pressure on Mars. 1 was determined, however, to explore the low structure which was the only evidence of habitation In sight, and so I hit upon the unique plan of reverting to principles In locomo- tion, creeping. I did fairly well nt this and In a few moments had reached the low, encircling wall of the enclosure. I cautiously gained my feet and peered over the top upon the strangest sight It had ever been given me to see! The roof of the enclosure was a solid glass about four or five inches i In thickness, and beneath tills were several hundred large eggs, perfectly round and snowy white. The eggs were nearly uniform in size, being about two and one-half feet In diameter.

Five or six had already hatched and the grotesque caricatures which eat blinking In the sunlight were enough to cause me to doubt my sanity. They seemed mostly head, with little scrawny bodies, long necks and six. legs, or, as I afterward learned, two legs and two arms, with an Intermediary pair of limbs which could be xised at will either as arms or legs. Their eyes were set at the extreme sides of their heads a trifle above the center and protruded in such a manner that they could be directed either forward or back and also independently of each other, thus permitting this queer animal to look In. any direction, or In two directions at once, without the necessity of turning the head.

There was no hair on their bodies, which were of a very light yellow-green color. In the adults, as I was to learn quite soon, this color deepens to an olive green and Is darker in the male than In the female. The iris of the eyes Is blood red, as In Albinos, while the pupil Is dark. The eyeball itself is very white, as are the teeth. These latter add a most ferocious appearance to an otherwise fearsome and terrible countenance, as the lower tusks curve upward to sharp points which end about where the eyes of earthly human he'nss are located.

The whiteness of the teeth is not that of Ivory, but of the snowiest and most gleaming of china. I was given but little time to speculate on (he wonders of my new discovery. I had seen that the eggs were In the process of hatching, and as I stood watching the hideous little monsters break from their shells I failed to note the approach of a score of full-grown Martians from behind me. They might have captured me easily, but their Intentions were far more sinister. It was the rattling of the accoutrements of the foremost warrior which warned me.

Had not the rifle of the leader of the party swung from Its fastenings beside his saddle In such a way as to strike against the butt of his great metal-shod spear I should have snuffed out without ever knowing that death was near me. But the little sound caused me to turn, and there npon me, not ten. feet from my breast, was the point of that huge spear, a spear forty feet long, tipped with gleaming metal, and held low at the side of a mounted replica of the little devils 1 had been watching. Hut how puny and harmless they row looked beside this huge and terrific Incarnation of hate, of vengeance, ond of death. The man himself, for such I may call him, was fully fifteen feet In height and, on earth, would bave weighed some four hundred pounds.

And his mount How can earthly words describe It I It towered ten feet at the shoulder; had four legs on either side; a broad flat tall, larger at the tip than at the root, and which It held straight out behind while ranting gnplng mouth which split Its liend from its snout to Its long, mas-ihe neck. Like Its mister, It was entirely de-Void of hair, but was of a dark slate tolor and exceeding smooth and glos-iy. Its belly was white and Its legs thaded from the slate of Its shoulders iad j)ipf t9 I JtW jtejlow ftjte feet. FRENCH VOILES $1.25 YD.

TOO MUCH FOR ST. ALBANS Two Extra Periods Bring Out Power of Local Men Delaney's Shot Gives 24-23 Win. The Cathedral basketball team won its 13th victory Tuesday at St. Albans. The game was one of those contests which men talk about long after the players have left the area of snort St.

Albans High School has a Etrong team; it is a hopeful team for it has won most of its league games End last night it had a determined team. The Cathedral boys were not long, however, In geting into action und they got ready for a real battle. And a battle it proved to be. when after the second half of play, and again at the end of the first extra period, the scorers reported an even break in the. court.

The supporters of each side had their hopes lifted up to the highest point only to have them suddenly dashed to the ground when one or the other team got the lead by a free throw or a basket from the floor. Hut the courage of the Eur-lingtonians never wavered for an instant. They played steadily, and fought every minute carrying out to the letter the instructions dinned into their ears by Coach Hammond, that athletic prowness consists mostly in "playing straight." And so they won, not by luck, nor trickery but by ability and hard work. At the end of the second half, St. Albans had succeeded in tieing the score and the first extra five minutes SCOTCH GINGHAMS This very popular gingham is shown in many stripes, plaid and check combinations, and is noted for its exceptional durability, 32 in- wide, 75c and $1.00 yd.

Competition Lowers Milk Price Down "to 10 Cents Per Quart As the result of keen competition among merchants on Main street Tuesday milk went dowD to the lowest whlcn has' existed since long before the war. One merchant dealt out milk at ten cents a quart.

This is the low limit for more than six years. The farmers are selling milk for eight and nine cents a quart to the dealers. When interviewed this morning tle dealer, who is selling milk, for. ten. cents said that he expected to handle the product he rear at yiat i had no floubt.

M'CARTHY NOT IN NEW YORK McKillip 24 27 101 "My Effort Was Crowned With a Sue cess Which Appalled Me No Less Than It Seemed to Surprise the Martian Warriors." seemed to surprise the Martian warriors, for It carried me fully thirty feet into the air and landed me a hundred feet from my pursuers and on the opposite side of the enclosure. I alighted upon the soft moss easily and without mishap, and turning saw my enemies lined up along the further pome were surveying me with expressions which I afterward discovered marked extreme astonishment, and the others were evidently satisfying themselves that I had not molested their young. They were conversing together In low tones, and gesticulating and pointing toward me. Their discovery that I had not harmed the little Martians and that I was unharmed must have caused them to look upon me with less ferocity; but, as I was to learn later, the thing which weighed most in my favor was my exhibition of hurdling. While the Martians are immense, their bones are very large and they are muscled only In proportion to the gravitation which they must overcome.

The result Is that they are Infinitely less agile and less powerful. In proportion to their weight, than an Earth man, and XI doubt that were one of them suddenly to be transported to Earth he could lift his own weight from the ground In fact, I am convinced that he could not do so. My feat, then, was as marvelous upon Mars as It would have been upon Earth, and from desiring to annihilate me they suddenly looked upon me as a wonderful discovery to be captured and exhibited among their fellows. I noted that each was armed with several other weapons in addition to the huge spear which I have described. The weapon which caused me to decide against an attempt at escape by flight was what was evidently a rifle of some description and which.

I felt for some reason, they were peculiarly efficient In handling. These rifles were of a white metal stocked with wood, which I learned later was a very light and Intensely hard growth much, prized on Mars, and entirely unknown to us denizens of Earth. The metal of the barrel Is an alloy composed principally Of aluminum and steel which they have learned to temper to a hnrdness far exceeding that of the steel with which we are familiar. The weight of these rifles Is comparatively little, and with the small caliber, explosive, radium projectiles which- they use and the great length of the barrel, they are deadly In the extreme and at ranges which would be unthinkable on Earth. The theoretic effective radius of this rifle Is three hundred miles, but the best they can do In actual service when equipped with their wireless finders and sighters Is but a trifle over two hundred miles.

The Martians, after conversing for a short time, turned and rode away In the direction from which they had come, leaving one" of their number alone by the enclosure. When they had covered perhaps two hundred yards they halted and turning their mounts toward us sat watching the warrior by the enclosure. When his force had come to a halt he dismounted, threw down his spear and small arms and came around the end of the Incubator toward me, entirely unarmed and as naked as except for the ornaments strapped upon his head, limbs and breast. When he was within about fifty feet of me he unclasped an enormous met-al armlet and holding It toward me In the open palm of his hand, addressed me In a elenr, resonant voice, but in a language, It Is needless to say, I could not utiderxtand. He then stopped as though waiting for my reply, pricking up his antennae-like ears and cocking his strange-looking eyes still further toward me.

As the silence became painful I concluded to hazard a little conversation on my own part, as I had guessed that be was making overtures of peace. (TO BE CONTINUED TOMORROW) NEWS WANT ADS.
