side?" He spoke of the constant

going on in the world without, the
heart of man is also a constant bat
tie ground and the fact that God is on
the side of the right and has pledged
Himself to help all those who will
unite with Him in the strife is the
hope, the confidence and the assur-
ance of final victory.

preached by f. E. Barrett of Brat
tleboro, and where the service of deco
ration was performed. Another

That's DeVoe but the usual answer is: II

means; ! want you to paint it for nothing.

The Criterion Club in BrattIeboro.

1t was delighted audience of good
numbers which listened to the pre-
sentation of "a Night Off" by the
Criterion Club at the Auditorium Sat
urday evening. High expectations
had been aroused by the enviable
reputation which preceded the club,
and the event justified Them every
one. The presentation had all the
finish of professional acting, and in
every respect it approached as nearly
the ideal of an evenings entertain
ment, when one may give himself up
to the enjoyment and feel at his ease,
as anything which has ever been seen
on the Auditorium stage. The piece
itself is a bit of bright and fast
moving comedy, full of surprises
which capture the audience, and alb
solutely free from anything which re-
quires horse play to keep the fun
moving. In none of the roles was
there any suggestion of amateur act
ing. On the contrary the notable
feature was the attention to details
and the perfect finish which marked
the piece throughout. AS individuals
the club made an equally favorable
impression, and should they choose
to visit Brattleboro again the mere
announcement of their coming viii
pack the house. 1t added not a little
to the evenings pleasure to find the
audience in touch with the actors
from the start, catching instantly thu
funny touches as one after the othe
they were developed, and giving un
stinted applause to the end.

trade name of the Remington type
writer, was heard before Judge H.

company from using the name Rem
ington in connection with the sale of
their machines. The complainants
are successors of e. Remington &
Sons, the original manufacturers of
typewriting machines. The Reming
ton-Sholes company manufacture a
machine invented by Y. G. Sholes,
son of one of the inventors of the
original Remington machine. About
| 1898 Mr.. Sholes became associated
with two of the grandsons of e. Rem

| off, Seamans & Benedict notified them
| that they were infringing on the
rights of the compliments as owners
| the trade name Remington, but as
they continued to use it an action was
brought in 1899 to compel them to de-
sist. Large volumes of testimony in
the case have been taken in this coun-
try and in Europe. The lawyers at
tending the case this week were H
