over the route from Rochester to Mont
pelier He was accompanied by +. A,
Kezer, representative of Rochester in the
present legislature. Mr.. Kezer represents
that his town is wide awake for the enter
prise and will contribute much in excess of
her mileage. All the towns of Mad River
Valley manifested an active interest in the
scheme, and in the meetings held assurance
OF the necessary aid was given. A meeting
was held in the room of the board of trade
at Rutland Friday evening, at which dele
gates were present from Montpelier and
intervening towns, the capital being repre-
sented by A. o. Cummins j. G. Brown and
Fred Blanchard. DIR. Mahana explained
his plans and his propositions. Many in
quiries were made and all the objections to
the doctors plans, all the difficulties me
chanical and otherwise, in the way Of carry
ing them out that cavilers or honest doubt
ers could suggest, were made. 1t is due to
DIR. Mahana to say that he passed the ordeal
quite successfully. The meeting unan-
imously expressed its confidence in the
scheme and its belief that Rutland would
contribute $4,000 on the terms and condi-
tions proposed by DIR. Mahana.
DIR. Mahana represents himself as the
president aud manager of the Single Rail
and Saddle Car Railroad Company of Union,
oregon, having capital of $500 900, and
abundant resources beyond this sum. The
reason given for coming east to test the
practicabllity of his scheme and the value
OF his inventions is that the new equipment
can be more advantageously supplied in the
East. His proposition is a safe one for the
towns Of the proposed route. The only
questions about the prosecution OF the enter.
prise are first, the practicability of this plan
of road building and the mechanical equip
ment required, and, second, the RESPONSE
bility OF DIR. Mahana and his company
These things settled affirmatively, there is
no question about the money support asked
of the towns. At Rutland DIR. Mahana pro
posed to furnish an ample guaranty that al
contracts would be fulfilled The desirable
ity of railway connection between the capi
tai and Rutland to the two towns and al
the towns along the route need not be en-
forced. 1t is very much needed and speed
the day of its coming, via DIR. Mahana's sad
die car line or any other.

Important Trade Name Decision.

Judge Thayer, of the United States Circuit
Court at St. Louis, has recently handed down
an opinion, and granted perpetual injunc-
ton against the defendants in the case of The
Hostetter Company against the Bruggeman,
Reinert Distilling Co. alias "Gold Spring
Distilling Co" prohibiting the advertising,
manufacturing or selling of any article Of
stomach bitters, either in bulk, BY the gallon
or otherwise, or in any way make use Of
the name Hostetter" except in connection
with the sale of the genuine bitters, which
are always sold in bottles securely sealed
and also prohibiting the sale of any bitters
in bulk, though the name ''Hostetter be not
used, but the suggestion made to the pur-
chaser that he can put them in the empty
Hostetter bottles, and purchasers would not
discover the difference. His decision sup
ports the Hostetter Company in the exclusive
use Of the name 'Hostetter" in connection
with either the manufacture or sale of stom-
ach bitters in any manner or form what>o-
ever, and firmly establishes its ownership in
the name "Hostettcr" rs ''trade name.''

The German wednesday Night.

The german given by Mr.. and
Mrs. f. Kiber at their residence
Wednesday evening, brief mention
of which was made in Thursdays
BANNER, complimentary to Miss Ida
Beall, of Fort Worth, was without
doubt one of the most enjoyable
social events of the kind this season,
and will long be remembered by
those in attendance, of which there
were some fifteen or twenty couples.
Owing to the size of the parlor
only about fourteen couples could
take part in the german at the same
time. Mr.. T. Il. Dryer and Miss
Beall, the lady in whose honor the
entertainment was given lead the
german, which continued with IN
abated interest until IL o'clock
when the guests were invited to
partake of refreshments, after which
they again repaired to the parlor
and continued the dance.
A committee of three gentlemen
were appointed to ascertain who
was the most popular young lady
and the prize was awarded to
Miss Beall. Mr.. Sam Lusk was
awarded the prize as the most popu-
lar gentleman, the decision being
rendered by the young lady attend
ants.
The entertainment was concluded
with the dancing of another figure
and the guests INDUCED in the
usual goodnight" greeting, each
with expressions of praise of the en-
joyable entertainment and the ex-
cellent manner in which the amiable
hostess entertained them.

LEE HUGHES TO HANG.

The Court of Appeals has affirmed
the decision of the District court of
Washington county in the case of
the State VS.. Lee Hughes, who was
tried at the spring term of the
court in this city and convicted of
murder in the first degree, and his
punishment assessed at death.
At the next term of the District
court in this county, which will not
be until September, he will be SEN
fenced and the time set for his exc
cution. At present he is in the Lee
county jail at Giddings, having been
removed there for safe keeping
while the Jail is undergoing repairs
here.
The crime for which the courts
have decided he must expiate by
forfeit of his life upon the gallows,
was the murder of his own wife,
Charlotte Hughes, on or about the
3rd day of January, 1891, about
four miles west of Chappell Hill.
The evidence was all circumstantial,
but concatenating, and the chain
when completed, furnished beyond
the question of doubt, evidence OF
his guilt. His wife was murdered
with a club axe, her head being en-
tirely severed from the trunk The
deed was done from her rear while
she was preparing a meal, her body
having been found near the fire
place, stiff in her own life blood, the
meal still on the unlive
Goals.
As the statue provides that the
court can fix the date of execution
80 days from the date of senteuce, if
he is sentenced at the beginning of
the next term of the court, and the
date of his execution placed at The
minimum time allowed by law, this i
will place his execution some time
in October. Say your prayers Lee
that the Lord may have mercy on
your soul.

Watermelons.

A BANNER reporter accepted a seat
in the sulky with Major Lauraine
Thursday evening and went out for
an airing and to look at his water
melon crop. The MAJOR belongs to
the Truck Growers association and
has already shipped a considerable
quantity of vegetables at quite re-
Kumerative prices, but the greater
portion of his truck consists of wa
termelons, of which he has fifty
acres. We were shown around and
through the entire farm, and such a
world of this delicious fruit
awakened "reminiscences of our old
Georgia home. The vines had
Tapped in the wide rows and the
round striped Kolb gems, varying all
the way in size from five to. twenty
pounds dotted th1ckly the entire
farm. Besides his melons, his can
taloupes, cucumbers and tomatoes
are very fine, as were also his
grapes, of which he has a large
number of vines. The reporter saw
much out there to interest him and
took it all in, but our limited space
precludes expatlating at length upon
the beauties of truck farm.
