against James Hartman of Danville
who had been bound up on charge OF
rape; Thomas Heading, the Canada
man bOnnd mp for trying to defraud
| Landlord K. Il. Flint of the Cottage
hotel and Thomas and Henry Gadapie
of Wheelock, charged with larceny.
These four parties have been in Jail

Other parties bound up to the grand
are: Zadic Lafou, accused of larceny {;
Jesse b. Goss, assault; Myra A. Bag
ley, Georgiana Shanty, Albert L.
Peak, adultery.
The larger number of the civil cases
placed on the jury list at the begin
ming of court have since been marked
otherwise and will not he so tried at
this term. One such, the case of Ham
iltOn Brock against E. j. NJ. Hale, re-
Gently referred to at length in The
CaledOnian, in which Brock sues for
$40, 900 from Hale for services render
ed at the time of the litigation over
the will of Hale's grandfather i'll New
York city, is 10y agreement of the par
ties to be submitted to referee not
yet selected. The counter suits of
Hale against Brock are to be likewise
submitted.
The first oftwo cases on the docket,
of the Village of st. Johnsbury aga inst
John c. Thompson, appellant, was
tried Monday afternoon, the action be-
ing brought against Thompson for
keeping an eating saloon without IA
victualer's license from the village.
Such a license was formerly granted
to Mrs. Thompson and subsequently
revoked on ground of being violated,
and Thompson claims that any action
in the matter should be against his
wife rather than himself. The evil
of fact, and the court ordered verdict
for the village of so and costs, and
us the matter will go to the supreme
court on appeal, the second case
against Thompson, which rests on
similar grounds to the other, was pass
ed by awaiting the ultimate decision in
4 G. tn 1,n
village, Bates & May for Thompson.
The last of the civil cases to be tried
by jury was begun yesterday. 1t is IA
suit for trespass brought by ex-Judge
|. n. Hall of GrOtOn against Lester
Low and another, and involves Il dis
puted boundary line between adjoin-
ing woodlots, from which certain tim
Der which figures in the case was cut.
Nichols Dunnett appeared for the
plaintiff and Bates s. May of this place
and Lawyer Sloan of Wells River for
the defendants. The case is likely to
continue through to-day.
The next case to be taken up begins
the criminal cases, of which there will
not be IA large number. 1t is that of
the state against Charles Flint of St.
Johnsbury for liquor selling. A like
prosecution is also brought against
Alvin Flint, the other member of the
local drug firm of Flint Bros, but OBJ
lection being made to the trial of both
at this term, only the former will be
tried. The Flint Bros. were indicted
in April, 1884, on five counts for liq-
uor selling, but waving IL hearing be-
fore the local magistrate, appealed to
the county court. Bates & May APP

Rev. Geo. C. Knapp, for 30 years
a missionary OF the American Board al
Bitlis, Asiatic Turkey, being here on d
visit to friends in town, gave an add
dress on his missionary experience al
the South church Sunday evening. His
"parish" is rs large as Vermont and has
a population of 3O0,0O0. The work
has been slow and attended with OPP
position. There is now church OF
200 members. Mr.. Knapp came home
for rest last fall on two years leave
of absence. The severe strain 30 years
of labor has brought upon his nervous
system was evident, so that his man
ner even more than his words spoke to
the audience of the herOism and self
sacrifice which the foreign missionary
life displays. Mr.. Knapp's heart is
deeply in his work, and if the physi-
clans allow, he contemplates returning
to his field next fall, instead of IA year
thereafter, thus surrendering one year
of his vacation.

CHILDREN's SUNDAY.

i he second sunday I'D June Is now
qnite generally recognized AS Chill
dren's day throughout the country
Accordingly next Sunday will be sc
observed by several of the local
churches. As the academy baccalau-
reats occurs in the evening at the
South church, this church will give up
the morning service to the children,
for whom the front pews will be re-
served.-Rev. ID. III. Adams of the Free
Ba fist church will preach a short ser
mon To children previous to his regu-
lar Sunday morning sermon, and a
Sunday school concert will he held in
the evening.-There will also be a
concert in the evening at the Rail
rOad-street Baptist church.
THE CASE OF MONTY.
"a Montreal paper puts "a somewhat
different aspect on the case of Joseph
l.. Monty, Il former druggist in this
place, from the account published in
the Champlain Counsellor and copied
into The CaledOnian of May IA. 1t
seems that Monty left LacOlle, Canada,
the day before certain theft was dis
covered and the crime was attributed
to him perhaps unjustly. At any rate
his pretended confession to a detective
was made up story. His acquain-
lance in this place, while admitting
that he is no better than he should be,
do not believe he is a thief.
PERSONAL.
Charles j. Collins and wife of Texas
are in town for short time. Mr.. Col
Inns was formerly engineer on the Lake
road and was running the train that
gently lifted Mr.. Hunts heifer from

shekels to the lawyers these days, the
case having got into the cOurts-but
is not IA money making job for the man
whose bovine was Iun down, as the
jury decided against him.

LEG AMPUTATED.

Leroy ID. Annis's left leg was ampu-

last Friday, as anticipated, and Mr..
Annis has been as comfortable as could
be expected and there are strong hopes
that he will weather the shock. 1t will
be remembered that amputatiOn be-
came the dernier resort because of the
plugging of a large artery in the leg
by reason of which the limb below the
knee died.

low-creature. His motives were pure
and upright. Instead of looking on
people with doubt and suspicion, he
had for them charity and kindness. AS
a member of this community his loss
will be deeply felt and we trust that
his many acts of kindness will be long
remembered. Like the shock of corn
fully ripe, this aged man has been
gathered to- his fathers i'm the heaven
ly world. 1t is beautiful and consOl-
ing to think of such events as has the
poet:
They not dead who from an earthly vision
Are hid by this dim veil that shrouds sight
They are but placed where their pure beauty
Can never know decay, yield to blight
Like flowers transplanted. they are growing fairer
In that bright world that knows strife;
This sleep that we call death is but the waking
To perfect, glorious everlasting life" p.
