Grandfleld realties on Berlin side on the old town poor farm which he purchased when the city secured the present one. His farm Is not over four miles from the city and probably under three on a bee line. Early this morning was out of doors ready to commence the day'a work when he noticed In bis pasture across the road three handsome deer, not 10 rods from the bouse. There were two bncks and a doe, all unusually good slsed animals, one of the bucks being a huge nna with m. arnut of antlers.

The deer were entitle salt in the pasture, where MrlGranfleld salts his cows, and although they saw hlra, paid no attention to him nor did they evince any fear. After Mr. Grandfleld bad looked at the animals a few moments he commenced to think of the "flsh stories" which cirou late once in a while, and of the cocking of eyebrows with which deer stories are usu. ally received. So he thought that be baa better have a few witnesses to demon it rate UUht Incredulous that be was no Munchausen.

Be accordingly called the other members of his family and Mrs. Lampson, a boarder, who went out and watched the animals for some fifteen min utes. A couple of the party with Mr. Grandfleld then tried to gr nearer the deer and succeeded In getting within four rods of tnem. although they were In plain Riant all the time.

Then the old buck commenced to trot leburely away, and In a few minutes the others followed Tbey dld'uot appear In tb least frighten- ed. stopping to browse under, a tree and drink at a spring, although they war fol lowed by Mr. Grandfleld and one of the ladles. Tbey finally disappeared tn the woods, having shown no signs of fear at any time. Deer are apparently very plen tiful In this part of the State.

Mr. Grand. field did not know but that hard times had struck the" deer, and that they bad made for the old poor house. HAKES BEET SUGAR. Former Vermonter Successful Business Man la Michigan.

President W. Wright, of the Cin cinnati, Saginaw and Mackinaw railroad, of Alma, was In the eity today on his private car. He visited the city last year, and will leave this evening for Rutland. Mr. Wright Is accompanied by his wife, Dr.

Lancashire and Miss Case, John H. Archmont and Joseph Whltooinb, of Chicago. President 'Wright Is a native of Ver mont, coming from the neighborhood of Chester. He Is a great admirer of Ad miral Dewey and says that it was because of him that he first visited Montpelier. Mr.

Wright Is erecting an Immense beet sugar factory in Alma, anew five-story and a half brick building, 1,850 feet long. Back of this Is the great storage sheds for the raw beets. These are to be taken Into one end of tbe building In their natural state, and in 24 hours the finished product granulated sugar will be taken from the opposite end. The factory will be run night and day, the night and day forces each comprising about 150 men. The capacity of the plant will be 125,000 pounSs of sugar per day.

The beets will all be grown by the farmers in the vicinity and will be the best crop which they can raise. Mr. Wright and his associates will probably pay out $20,000 per year for the beets alone, and tbe yearly output of the fac tory will depend only on the size of the best crop which the farmers raise. The legislature of Michigan formerly passed an act giving a bounty of one cent per pound on beet sugar, but the busi ness has Increased so enormously that the act was repealed, when the State saw that It would be bankrupt if it continued to pay the bounty.
