To the citizens Of Randolph and vicinity:
Any parties who would like to have
their roofs coated with my roofing mate
rial, which has stood the test for twenty
nine years in Vermont and other states
and which, it has been found, will double
the life of any shingled roofs, old or new,
will find me at the Red Lion Inn where
they can get e,timates and references from
Others OF long standing in Vermont.
st, Johnsbury, VT, April 20, 1896.
MR.. G. e. MEADER, Dear Sir: In reply
to your inquiry whether the roofing mate
rial with which you covered some roofs
for us was any protection against fire at
the time our shops burned last July,
would say that think it was of great ser
vice. A stoTehouse covered with your
roofing stood within fifty feet OF one OF
the burned buildings, and, while the heat
was sufficient To set fire to the siding of
the building in several places, and the
siding is in some places burned to a Gin
der, the roof showed no marks of the fire.
The roofs you repaired FOR us have proved
entirely satisfactory. Yours truly,
ELY HOE q FORK Co.
BY Henry g. Ely, President.
G. c. MEADER, Proprietor.

posted by the state it is not likely that
many will run the risk, especially as no

Thief,

The Populist county central committee
held a meeting yesterday afternoon and
resolved to run the police affairs of Lear-

berS of the committee live in the country
and know nothing about local matters.
Wien the committee meeting was called

that the members of the committee pro-
pose TO fire him in the near future. At
present Mr.. Taylor is police judge and. of
course. Il friend of the police commissions
erS
During the meeting of the committee sew
eral members of the Peoples Party Club"
as to the manner in which local police af-
fairs were managed. These gentlemen
stated that nearly all the offices were
filled by Democrats and that Populists,
notably the members of the visiting COM
m.ittee, could not get a bite of pie. They
claimed that the three police commission
erS were all Democrats and that they
wanted a change in the interest of the
party, and themselves incidentally.
II is said that a majority of the central
con. mitteemen agreed to petition Governor
l eedy to remove two of the present COM
m.ssiOners and ask for the appointment of
two s~traightOut POpulists in their places.
In case the governor does not feel like
going this far they will ask that ne ap-

Second Jury in the 100000 Damage
Case Against the metropolitan
Disagreed and Was Dis
c~harged-WiII BE Tried
Third Time.

4 sensation was sprung on the legal fra
ternity yesterday when IL was made known
thar the twelve jurors that nave been seTv-
ing on the big damage suit of Mabel Rus
sell against the Metropolitan Street Rail-
way Company had been Swallowed by de-
tectives from the hour hey entered the
jury box until 6 o'clock Friday night. when
they were locked up to deliberate upon a
verdict. The jurymen were unconscious Of
the fact that their every move was being
watched by employed sleuths and if any
shady transactions have taken place the
sensation promises TO be increased. The
detectives, as well as those interested in
the claim Of Miss Russell. refuse to state
whether or not they nave anything up
their sleeve"
Attorneys Angevine and Cubbison, who
represented the plaintiff. were seen by a
reporter for The Journal but refused to
state who employed the detectives. Judge
Angevinc denied they were employed by
him. Asked if his law partner. Mr.. Cubbi-
son, hired the detectives. he said he could
not say, as he did not know. One of the
detectives who assisted in s~hadowing the
jurors acknowledged that he was en-
ployed TO watch the jurymen but refused
to give the names of his employers.
To place detectives on the trail of jurors
is a rare occurrence in this city and the
matter was the sole topic of conversation
among the lawyers and court officials yes
teTday.
The suit is for $4,000 damages and this
Is the second time II has been triad. At
the nrst trial the jury disagreed. eleven
being in favor of giving Miss Russell a
verdict to one against. On every ballot
taken this one juror voted against the
pldlntiff. and after being locked up for
about twenty-fOur hours the jury was dis
charged. 1t was afterwards rumOred that
money had been used. but no evidence was
produced to Substantiate the rumor. This
time II was decided to detect any attempt
at bribery that might be made. so detec-
tives were employed to keep tab ON the
lurymen. The case was given to them Fri
day evening. and after celebrating until
midnight they reported to Judge Holt that
they could not agree and were discharged
The case will likely be tried again. The
men who served on the Jury are all
reputable citizens of this county. and while
not the remoteSt suspicion rested on them.
yet interested parties propose TO prevent
any possible intimidation.
Miss Russell and her brother were re-
turning home from school one evening in
