AN ANpOYER DECISION.
Trustees Can be Called to Account For Act.
ing Upon Their Convictions.

Trustees Can be Called TO Account For Act.
ing Upon Their Convictions.
SALEM, MASS, April 17.-Justice Field,
of the Supreme Judicial Court, rendered an
important decision in the Andover heresy
controversy to-day. he handed down 8
judgment sustaining the demurrers in the
case of Joshua n. Marshall and Julius II.
Seedye. The Court says that it does not
Zee why any material question could not
have been tried on the appeal in the
case of Prof. Smyth if the parties
therein had desired it; that the corporation
plaintiff has heretofore accepted consider
able property in trust TO be administered
subject 70 the supervision of the Visitors,
and until the present time has acquiesced in
the provisions which created the board, and
it does not appear that any other than the
plaintiff corporation doubts the validity of
the provisions of the trust or the constitu-
tionality OF the statute of 1924.
1t appears that the Visitors have not sus-
tanned the charges against the defendants,
Churchill, Tucker, Harris and Hincks; but
only against Prof. Smyth, and he has Rp-
pealed. The action of the Visitors is of no
effect upon the status of the others,
and the validity of their action against him
viii be determined by the full court The
trustees can, if they think best take the re-
sponsibility of acting upon their conyle-
tions, and other persons interested can call
them to account

AFTER MANY YEARS
The Work on the Hudson River Tun-
mel Is to be Once More Pushed.
ENGLISH MONEY 10 THE RESCUE.
The Capital to Complete the Scheme viii
Come From Abroad.
SOME RATHER ACTIVE OPPOSITION

rsPEc1AI TxLEGRAM 10 THE prsPATcH.i
New YORK, April I'D. G. Haskin,
Chief Engineer and General Manager of the
Hudson river tunnel, expects to he able to
complete the tunnel itself with the ESQ, 900
which has been raised in England by
mortgaging the tunnel and everything ap-
pertaining to il. When that is done the en-
terprise will be in such shape that the
completion of the New York terminus will
be certainty.
Work will be resumed as soon as money
is transmitted from England, which, how
ever, Judging from the delay that has
already taken place, may not be for several
weeks, and possibly months. Work was
suspended on the tunnel, or rather tunnels.
for there are two of them side by side, four
years ago.
WHAT HAS BEEN DONE.
About ], $50 feet of the north tunnel and
565 feet of the south tunnel are compie'e
on the New Jersey side and on the New
York side $50 feet of the north tunnel ana
% feet of the south tunnel are finished. As
the length of the tunnel from shaft to shaft
is $500 feet it will be seen that considerably
over one-third of the north tunnel is COM
plete, while less than 600 feet of the south
tunnel is finished.
There remain S.612 feet of tunnel to be
finished. Although full of water, work on
the tunnels may be resumed without much
DELAY, as the water can be easily pumped
out. while the machinery and shafts can
soon be put in working condition. Mr..
Haskin thinks that the north tunnel could
be completed in 16 months and the south
tunnel in about two years.
An average of seven feet per day, which
was made when the work was in operation,
could be maintained. The tunnels could be
carried on better simultaneously than sep
srately.
SOME OPPOSITION.
As much as $4,000, 600 in cash has been
expended on the tunnels and the
liabilities are at least half as much
more The reason why funds could
not be got before was the opposi-
ton of the interests with which the tunnel
would conflict. As it proposes to be q con-
duit for all the railways now terminating
on the west bank of the Hudson, it is natu-
rally opposed, Mr.. Haskin says, by the
only railway which now has stations in New
York, and it is also opposed by the ferry
company.
There would be local trains running
through it every few minutes. Mr.. Has
kins has as yet no idea where the tunnel
will crop out in this city, and he would moi
let the secret out if he did. Already man
has bought property on Bleecker street on q
line with Morton street, at the foot of which
the New York shaft is situated, in the ex.
pectation that the terminus will be there
abouts and that the tunnel company viii
have to pay his own figures for the land.

BASE BUT PRECIOUS.

A Reported Silver Discovery Turns Ont TO
be One of Iron Ore.
1t turns out, of course, that the report Of
q silver discovery on Puckety creek, near
Psrnassus, is a canard. But Pittsburg
analytical chemist, who, with geologist, is
familiar with the stratas up the Allegheny
Valley, states. that Plum township, in this
county, is full of most excellent iron ore. The
only difference is tnat the ore is SO far back in
the country from railroad and river.
If il could be made accessible cheaplY, he
believes iron furnaces would find q harvest
field there. 1t is said the silver ore hoax was
started to draw attention 70 these quarries of

Kid Gloves are not necessarily as expen-
sive as some people find them. a store
that sells 20 pairs where Q smaller dealer
sells one, can afford to give much better
goods for the same price, or the same goods
for much lower price. That is just what
we do.
And once in while the large dealer gets
hold of a lot Of gloves that the importer Is
willing to sell for fraction of their value.

LECTURE ON EVOLUTION.

In response to the petition of a
large number of Academy pupils
Prof S. H. Bracket will give a lee
ture on the drift of opinion as to
evolution, probably on Friday even
ing, Jan 3. No attempt will be
made to establish any near cousin
ship to- the baboon or any other ape,
but he thinks that so many fallacies
of reasoning, mis-statements of. facts
and crudities of opinion should not
pass unnoticed. The many who have
expressed desire to hear something
more on evolution will be cordially
welcomed at Academy hall where
the lecture will be given. Prof.
Bracket is receiving daily some very
interesting correspondence on the
subject from eminent educator in
various parts of the country, some
results of which may be presented at
the lecture

UNIFORM TEXT BOOKS.

The special school textbook COM
mittee, appointed last September by
the county boards of education to
confer in relation to securing state
uniformity in textbooks, and to re-
commend a list to be adopted for the
next five years, has voted in favor of
sta.> uniformity. The committee
voted to recommend to the several
counties of the state the following
list of textbooks for adoption for the
next five years: Arithmetic, Green
leafs new inductive series; Readers,
undecided; Spoilers, Normal course !;
Grammar, Reed and kellogg's; Ge-
ography, Harper's series; History,
Barnes Writing, Ellsworth +; Draw
ing, Prang's. 1t is probable that
some of the textbooks recommended
will be adopted by nearly all, if not
all, the county boards of education
in the state If these textbooks
should be adopted here it would ne
cessitate change of almost the
whole list as the only series used in
this town found in the above list are

FROM THE GOLDEN GATE.

A subscriber to the Caledonian in
Oakland, California, in remit ting for
his paper for the coming year adds
"The foothills are looking as green
as the hills of old Caledonia in June.
California is a great state and good
state to live in, if one has plenty of
money. Money they say is king, and
that is especially true of this state
To the common laboring man YER
mont is as good a place, if not better
than California The stories that
one hears about five acres of fruit
land supporting a family in Califor-
MIA must be taken with a good deal
of allowance. The fact is that away
from the large centres the fruit bust
ness is anything but profitable AL
though fruit is high on this bay in
the retail market, yet the producer
has to sell for small margin, if he
gets any margin at ALL Californians
talk large and tell of the wonderful
resources of the state, but what has
all this to do with the hundreds who
are here and are hardly able to live
All up and down the state are thou
sands hunting for work and unable
to get it. Some say they are tramps,
but | think the most of them are
honestly looking for work. 1t is
said this state has more homeless
men than any state in the Union.
But enough.
The Caledonian is very welcome
visitor at our fireside and its policy
the past few years meets with hearty
approval. Don't let up on temper
ance If there is any one thing more
than another that curses this state,
and might say nation, it is the Ii
censed saloon"

COUNTY COURT.


Court adjourned last Thursday af
ter closing up the chancery cases.
Ashley Bishop was sentenced to the
workhouse for 20 days for intoxica-
ton. Judgment was suspended in
the case of Place convicted for larce-
ny of jewelry in the White Noun
tains and selling it in this vicinity.
The judges will meet on January Z
to render their decision in the case
Place is a New Hampshire man and
has served in the army and navy
He has never been accused of any
crime before.
The suit in chancery of Jesse P
Bancroft ct ais. VS.. Benjamin g.
Howe was discontinued by the plain
tiffs, without costs, it being the
action brought to enjoin Mr.. Howe
from building in violation of a re-
striction i'll a deed, they withdraw
ing the suit now that Mr.. Howe does
not own the land.
Two chancery cases were tried that
involved interesting law points and
will interest our readers in McIndOeS.
The first was the case of GilChrist &
Chamberlain Philo B. Van Dyke.
The plaintiffs succeeded i'll getting
Van Dyke enjoined out of the posses
sion of a spring and George w. Wing
was appointed special master. The
master reported that Simonds, the
owner of the spring, had decided it to
Gilchrist & Chamberlain. When Van
Dyke tried to buy it SimondS told
him he had not decided it but Gilchrist
claimed he had deed. Van Dyke
found no deed on record and bought
the spring and took deed foK it.
When he asked GiIchrist where his
deed was he told him it was none of
his business. The court decided that
Van Dykes title to the spring was
the best Ide & Stafford for the
plaintiffs, Bates & May for the de-
| fendant
The other case was Or. {. w.
Gleason of Philadelphia V Connect
cut River Lumber Co When the case
was heard before J. L. Edwards and
Mr.. Thompson, referees, at St. Johns
| bury last month Lawyer Ide raised
the point that as the land which
Gleason claimed was damaged by
the water from the river as well as
the river, were in New Hampshire
the case could not be tried in the Yer
mont courts The court sustained
Mr.. Ide's position and the case was
appealed to the supreme court by
Lawyer Dunnett.
