Liquor Selling.

Judge L. H. Thompson, presiding in the
Rutland county court, has made an an
nouucement to the bar and liquor dealers
that he shall not adjourn this term of court
until the March term. A recess will be TAX

retired and the panel filled up should ne
cessity require. If any liquor or civil eases
are ready for trial he will come and hear
them Since Judge Thompson opened court
at Rutland seven weeks ago co par-atively
little liquor has been sold there. Thirty
three liquor dealers and barkeepers have
fled to the state of New York to escape trial
and now the new method of keeping open
court will further detain them out of the
state Requisition has been made for them
but the governor refuses to deliver them
to Vermont on the ground that liquor sell
ing is not a crime.

$4,000 Fire Loss "A, Centre Rutland.

The coping" shop of the Vermont Mar
BILE company's mill at Centre Rutland was
burned early Friday morning, causing loss
of betwe en- $4,000 and $4,000 The shop stood
Just south of the large mill on the west side
of the falls, and was a story and half
framed building with a floor about 90 by
90 feet The building and machinery were
valued at about $4,000, and there was over
$4,000 worth of marble in the shop. The
building and stock were insured for $4,000.
Some freight cars which stood on the track
of the Clarendon and Pittsford railroad in
front of the building caught fire, and two
of them were nearly destroyed, The others
were saved by the firemen and mill hands
The fire is thought to have started from
some clothes which hung on a line near a

wild Horses, Cattle and sheep.

Some men in Bennington county, who
turned out horses, cattle and sheep in the
mountain pastures last spring, are having
considerable trouble in finding all their
stock. The loudest complaints in this mat
ter come from Pownal, Readsboro and
Stamford, though those in Woodford, West
Arlington and other towns have been un
able to find a good many head. Several
years ago Bennington man could not find
several of his best colts that were pastured
on the ranges in the adjoining town of
Woodford The following February
number of lumbermen came across the
horses many miles out in the forest from
any human habitation. The snow was
three feet deep on level, but the colts
were living contentedly in their new quar-
ters. which somewhat resembled a deer
lick. They were subsisting on browse and
if left alone they would probably have
come out all right in the spring
