BISHOP HALL.

Series OF Remarkably Strong Ser
rium---subjsct Tonight the Crucin-
xIOn.
Brattleboro people have had the un-
usual privilege this week of listening TO
Rev. A. Q. A. Hall, bishop of the Yer
mont diocese, who has spoken every even
ing at the Auditorium. Probably no one
among the large audiences which have at
tended Bishop Halls sermons can have
failed to realize, In some measure, the
power which characterizes the Bishops
speaking. His subjects are treated in a
manner which appeals to people in general
ON account of its clearness of thought
trankness of expression, and no one can
help being benefited by the moral lessons
which the Bishop sets forth with such
striking force.
The four judgments of Christ were the
subjects upon which Bishop Hall spoke at
the first four meetings. The judgment Of
Caiphus, the high priest, was discussed
sunday evening; that of Pontius PLATE
Monday evening; that of King Herod
tuesday evening, and the judgment of the
populace, Wednesday evening. In addition
TO picturing in vivid color the story of the
condemnation Of Christ by these four
powers, Bishop Hall spoke of the similar
COMBINATIONS which are made in the
present day, and emphasized the danger
OF playing the part of a modern Herod or
PLATE.
AT the meeting last evening Bishop Hall
turned to the personality of Christ and
drew touching picture of the agony in
the garden of Gethesemene. This evening
Inc crucifxion is the subject. The
Bishop will speak on Saturday evening of
the favorable judgment of Christ by the
eenturian at the cross, and on the evening
OF Easter Sunday the subject will appro-
priately be the Resurrection.

A MINIATURE SAHARA.
Main Street Has Been Swept BY Clouds
OF Dust Several Days---The Watering
Cart Situation.

"aiA StTeet mas been swept BY Clouds
OF Dust Several Days---The Watering
Cart Situation.
Brattleboro has been the busiest place
this side OF Suez" for several DAYS, and
the dense clouds Of dirt have buffeted Pc
destrians, filling the eyes and nose with
dirt and making breathing almost impossi-
BILE. The dirt has found its way through
doors and windows into the interior of
buildings and even there has detracted
somewhat from the long, sweet song which
life is supposed TO be in Brattleboro.
Merchants have been obliged to move the
outdoor displays TO cover, and In some
cases have sustained damage. Man has
done little to mitigate the distress, but yes
terday nature came to the relief of suffer
ing humanity and laid the tormenting
plague, not exactly sin the dust" but into
a temporary state of inertia.
In years past the sprinkling was done
by the late E. K. Stockwell who was paid
for his services out Of fund subscribed by
the abutters on the street sprinkled. For
this work about 500 a year has been
raised, of which 5000 year has been paid
for the water. The season lasts about six
months, and requires the services of one
team practically all of the time and two
teams part of the time.
The carts are now offered for sale by C.
q. Staples, administrator of the Stockwell
estate, but nobody seems TO be willing to
buy them and carry on the business at the
price which has been paid heretofore, and
no effort has been made 10 ascertain
whether larger subscription could be Sc
cured. 1t has been suggested that the vii
lage act in the matter, but such action is
not likely to be taken as long as a tax can
be avoided by having the sprinkling paid
for by subscription. The only person who
has been mentioned as available to do the
work is John Nichols, who thinks he
would be willing to do It for $25 a week if
the water were furnished

The last basket ball game of the season
took place in the Armory last Saturday
evening between teams representing the
Y. NJ. @. A. and the Estey Guard. At
the end of the first half the score stood
"a in favor of the soldiers, the playing
up to this time having been extremely
lively. The Y. NJ. G. A. boys kept play
ing right through the second half, but
their opponents evidently lost their cour-
age, wind, or something, for they we're un-
able to score. When time was called the
result stood 1876 in favor of the associa-
ton team. The lineup:

Suspicious of a "Packedn jury.

The interested parties in the case of G.
L. Miner of Guilford against II. G. French
OF Brattleboro assembled for a hearing
Saturday, but the proceedings were sud-
denly terminated by Lawyer j. E. Gale of
Guilford, counsel for the plaintiff, who dis
continued the case on suspicion that an at
tempt was being made to secure "pack-
ed" jury. The plaintiff alleges that he en-
gagged the defendant to load some cartridge
shells for him and that they were loaded
so heavily that his gun was burst, and he
brought suit to recover the value of the
gun and for the loss of the use of the gun.
A jury was called for and 1s names were
chosen from which the jury was to be
drawn. Out of the first II names called
one juror was selected, leaving only six
names from which to select the other five
jurors. Most of the names called were
names of fellow employees of Mr.. French,
which aroused Mr.. Gales suspicion and he
discontinued the suit and entered a new
suit which will be tried in May.
