A New supreme Court Decision Com
corning Liquor Selling.

N NEW supreme OOn-
corning Liquor Selling.
The supreme court of Vermont in gener-
al term has made an important decision in
relation to the prohibitory liquor statutes.
The respondent, David Sawyer of Middle
bury, was convicted in the lower court of
a first offence for selling liquor, and a
fine was imposed. He was also convict
ed of keeping liquors for sale. Both
cases were treated as first offences, which
carried with them the imposition of fine
only. The supreme court holds that the
conviction for selling constitutes a second
offence, the penalty being both fine and
imprisonment. Thereupon the court sem
fenced the respondent to pay a fine of 5000
and costs, with Imprisonment in the Rut-
land house of correction at hard labor for
90 days. Selling and keeping have hither-
to been held as one first offence. This
ruling of the court makes radical change
in the Interpretation of the statute. which
may cause the speedy emigration from Yer
mont of a considerable number of persons
to escape Imprisonment. There are prob
ably 500 cases of this kind pending in the
state courts. The supreme is court of
last resorts. The legislature now in ses-
sion is liable to make the law even more
stringent. High license will have no
standing in the present assembly.

so closely identified with the rajab's
ruby, he identified this fellow the mo-
ment his shadowy figure was outlined
against the lanplight Of the room be-
yond.
The round skull cap, with its dangling
tassel, the thin hooked nose, the long
wiry mustache and prominent chin-all
these were unmistakable as their sill
houette showed against the yellow back
ground.
"Dr. Maidhoff has deceived him in
some way about the gen." was the con-
clusion of the watcher, land that fellow
has come back to revenge himself upon
him."
The large limb upon which Wich,nan
was crouching put out from the trunk
below the window sill so that his body
from the waist downward was in i'm
penetrable gloom, but the rest was so
plainly shown that the watcher detected
every movement.
The fellow cautiously raised his head
until he must have gained a glimpse Of
the interior. At the same time he
shrouded his movements as much as he
could, doubtless through fear that the
couple in the room would discover him.
The weird figure of the man and his
noiseless movements suggested the fear
full belief that the miscreant was about
to wreak terrible vengeance upon both
of them.

the three months following. Since and In
cluding July we have paid $3.50, QUO In divI-
dends, and have expended about $4,000 in
new pumps and other machinery made neces-
sary to prepare for deeper mining and more
water"
The circular goes on to state that n fault
had been discovered In the formation between
the fifth and sixth levels. While there was
more or less good ore the mining has not
been profitable. This fault extended TO the
eighth level, below which the regular formn-
tion exists. 1t also states that on the tenth
level, In May last, largo amount of water
was struck, which quickly filed the shaft.
new pump was put In on the tenth level and
will be ready to work about January 25, when
development will again begin on the lower
level The pumping capacity will be three
times the present flow OF water.
The circular further states that but for the
flooding Of tho shaft dividends would proba-
bly, not have been interrupted. Nearly all
the ore has been taken from not deeper than
$50 feet. 1t IL further stated that 1t Is ex-
pectcd that rich ore chutes will be found to
extend through the entire length Of the prop
crty about z, 500 feet, and further, that the
control Of the stock still continues In the
hands Of those who held 1t when the COM
pany paid Its first dividend.
The result Of the passing OF the dividend
was to make decided drop In the stock from
lao to Sl.10, at which price 1t was offered
on the 4th.

Dispatches received from Trachan, Sicily,
announces q renewal OF the rioting which mas
already thrown the whole island into state
OF ferment, and has compelled the govern
ment to send strong reinforcemcnts OF troops
to the disturbed district. A band OF several
hundred Protestants, number OF @hom were
armed, melted by the speeches OF the agita-
tors. attacked the octroi offices at the out
skirts Of the town at which the taI is levied,
shouting: Down with the octroil "Wc want
a free communer "Down with the muni-
cipal authoritlcs"
Finally the crowd became so dangerous
that the municipal officers fled from their
posts In fear Of the mob's fury. The rioters
are then said to have caused considerable
damage to the octroi Offices, and to have ne
cessItated display of military force to pro-
tect municipal authority.
