Health means the free flow
OF blood and continuous

Disease means obstruction
to the free flow Of blood, or
it means an interrupted
nerve current.
All possible distractions to
the free flow of blood or to
the nerve current, be it
either a displaced bone, a
contracted muscle, an en-
gorged tissue or a construct

ploy OF G. p, Winter on farm about a
mule from Barre, became suddenly possessed
with the hallucination that he had swallowed
a god and was endowed, through the pro-
cess OF assimilation, perhaps, with the
strength and power OF the divinity he
claimed to have digested. According to
,he Barre Telegram, he did not want to
nurt Mr.. Winter or his family, but only
wanted to prove his superiority over ordi-
nary men by killing them and bringing
them back to life again. Compo, while
MT Winter was at the barn, chased Mrs.
Winter around the barn with the evident
Intention OF killing her and restoring her to
me again, but after she made her way
through the door Compo said he guessed
ne had better begin on Mr.. Winter and
started for the barn. When the two men
met some strange things happened. Com
pc, instead of carrying out his unearthly
threats, approached Mr.. Winter and be.
slowed upon him "blessing" as Compo
called it, but at the same time it was a
blessing which will inger in the memory Of
both MIR. and Mrs. Winter for years to
come. He was finally captured and taken
to place where he could be restrained
and receive kind treatment.

Justice Against Auditor.

An important case was heard in the SUI
preme court in the mandamus proceedings
OF A. G. Fay VS.. o. M. Barber. The
plaintiff is justice OF peace at Barre and
the defendant is state auditor.
The question at issue is in regard to GER
tam fees that the state auditor refuses to
allow, claiming there is no authority at law
tor them. The case is made a test case
and is OF great interest to all justices and
officers throughout the state, as it means
the cutting off from $4,000 to $4,000 in
fees if the court decides in favor of the
state auditor.
The issues made are these: Fees of the
justice and officer in truancy cases, the
question raised whether or not it is the re-
Sponsibility of state or town; the Justice
and officersfees in search and seizure cases
where no liquor is found. The auditor
thinks that there should be no fees paid un-
less there there is trial of liquors.
The other issue is that in regard tic
charges made by justices for making out
certain papers, they having been in the
habit of receiving six cents for every wit.
ness named in subpoena, 25 cents for q
record, 20 cents for venire and so on
charging in addition the $3.50 allowed by
statute. The auditor claims that the So. sc
covers the whole amount of work.
These fees have been allowed in the past
as matter OF custom, but since the last
session of legislature the state auditor i.
not doing anything that he thinks is moi
sufficiently authorized by written law.

Rutland Railroad Troubles.

The engineers and fremen on the Rut-
land railroad held special meeting at
Rutland one day last week to draw up
schedule Of the pay they are going to
ask the company for. 1t is reported that
the schedule has been sent to the company,
but definite information on this point can
not be obtained.
The principal grievances are being
nursed by the freight trainmen. These
men are paid by the month, and it is
learned that month on the Rutland rail-
road may contain so or 60 days instead OF
80 or 81. The freight brakemen and fire.
men say they get only $3.50 a day and
each trip counts one and one-half days.
When it takes three days to make the
round trip between Rutland and Burling-
ton they are paid for only a day ard half.
The men want so day and they want pay
tor every hour overtime. Twenty cents
an hour i, the amount of detention pay
desired.
The conductors and engineers get so. 85
a day, but they don't get pay for the So
called detention time.
Some of the union men have very little
hopes OF getting what they want until after
the Rutland Canadian begins operations.
Then the entire system of runs may be
changed.
The Central men get seventeen cents an
hour detention pay, while the Rutland men
want 20 cents. That is the amount that
the Central employees demanded, but it was
cut down three cents, being the only point
the officers declined to concede.
There are only seven passenger conduc-
tors on the Rutland railroad and some Of
these are satisfied with the pay they receive.
Some OF the freight conductors also are
satisfied. None of the non-union men
claim to have grievance. The system Of
pay and the schedule of the Rutland
employees is exactly the same as the
old schedule of the Central Vermont.
The various unions embracing the con-
ductors, trainmen, engineers and fire.
men are federated, and for this reason they
will all stand together in case of trouble,
although it is far from probable that there
will be an occasion for them to aid each
other.-Burlington News.

Goes to State Prison.

Burleigh E. Tolten was sentenced to moi
less than four years and not more than
four years and six months in the state
prison at Windsor in supreme court on the
charge of highway robbery. Tolten Yves
arrested and tried last March, the jury find.
ing him guilty. 1t was charged that be
took 81 from man. The opinion was
read by Judge Munson. The court found
no error in the proceedings, and that the
respondent took nothing by the exceptions.
When Tolton was asked if he had anything
to say he replied, Il could say a good
deal, but l don't think it is necessary"
Tolten took his sentence pretty hard and
when led away from the state house by
Sheriff Reeves broke down completely. He
is young man about 25 years Of age, has
had the advantages OF a good education
having attended an academy and taken a
portion of college course. He was in
business and later sold out and entered the
army. He has been in Chittenden county
Jail since December II.

A Klondike in Brattleboro.

Should the hopes of two OF Brattleboro's
enthusiastic farmers be realized, two profit
able gold mines may be unearthed in the
near future. Already some specimens
have been put in the hands of assayists for
an expert opinion as to their value, which
may lead to extensive prospecting between
this and spring. An old resident who is
in the secret declares that he has known
for several years of the existence of gold
on one of the farms not far from the vii
lage limits, and that he has anticipated
a little Klondike boom for number oil
years, though the fact that gold had been
found there seems to have been kept
secret by very few individuals, who
had neither capital nor capacity for work.

The Roberts Resolution.

The following resolutions were adopted
at the recent state Christian Endeavor con-
vention held in Woodstock:
Inasmuch as it is generally understood
that Representative-elect Roberts of Utah,
is an avowed polygamst, and thereby a
breaker of the covenant of statehood;
Therefore, in behalf of the purity of the
home and in honor OF the Christian form Of
marriage, we, Christian EndeavorerS OF
Vermont, in convention assembled, lift our
voice in protest; and be it
Resolved,
1. That we hereby petition congress
through our representative to use all hon.
orable means toward the unseating Of B.
II. Roberts in the House Of Representa-
tives.
2. That thi, convention urge upon all
delegates to bring this matter before their
respective societies for this action in sepa.
rate petitions.
8. That a copy of these resolutions be
sent to Honorable III. I'll. Powers and w.
w. Grout, our representatives, respectfully
asking their hearty cooperation.

of being the first in the Northwest to
take this matter of free employment
up in a substantial form, we are par

wherever tried, therefore there is no
reason why it should not be a grand
success in our city, and there is no
doubt in our mind but that it will be
