they encountered Mr. W. who lives not
far north Of Winooski. 'Sho was ordered 10
halt and state who he was and if he had INV
smuggled goods in his sleigh. He replied
that he had some goods, and thereupon at
tempted to escape by driving rapidly in an
ether direction. One of the officers, how
ever. succeeded in clingrlg to the back of the
sleigh, and after sharp tussle. succeeded in
mounting it and capturing the driver. No
goods were discovered, and 1t then became
PLAIN that W. was acting as decoy to draw
the officers of on a false scent, and clear the

rutiied and subdued appearance. however.
indicated that he got decidedly the worst of
the encounter, aud 1t is believed TINT on the
