The situation in few words is -
follows: The old city charter provid-
ed that minor criminal prosecutions,
committed within the town Of Barre
might be tried before tho city court.
BY terms Of the new proposed charter
that right was cut out by amendments
at the request Of the town Of Barre by
petition. The matter In the old
charter is contained In Sec. -. In
Sec. 40 Of tho new charter provisions
were made whereby the grand jurors
Of the town Of Barre could bring .
case before the city court, but by
amendments the same was stricken
out before the bill passed the Senate.
BY request the town Of Berlin ask
ed to have the Barre city court given
Jurisdiction under both Secs. ~ and
%. The latter was the same except
giving the grand Jurors 0f the. towns
OF Barre and Berlin right to bring
cases before city court If they chose to
do 90. The word Barre town was
striken out in both sections by amend
ment. There is q slight technical diff
ference between the two sections.
See. ~ empowers the city court and
Sec. 40 empowers the states
attorney and town grand jurors.
It would not effect any
citizen of the city except the city
fudge. 1t would in certain be privi'
lege to citizens of the town.
Sec. p was just the same IN the
new as in the old except the addition
of the town of Berlin. Sec. 40 was
lust the same as formerly except the
addition of the town OF Berlin
and the addition of giving
the right to town grand jurors
to prosecute in city court II they
choose. The town grand jurors have
always exercised this right but 1t was
not plain in the old city charter that
they we're legally entitled to tnat
right. II anyone has represented
tnat the proposed new charter Would
compel town grand Jurors to bring
cases before the city court they mis-
re resented the facts. 1t merely IN.
tends to give them the privilege II
they should want it.-Editor.

ancient races and used by them for
kingly and other purposes. While the
name ebony is given to the wood OF
several varieties of trees, all kinds are
of great density and dark color, the
heaviest varieties being, as rule, also
the darkest. There are three varieties
of ebony we'll known in the trade. Tne

DISGRACE TO YALE.
Misdeed of Students Results In a
Pitched Battle With Police.

New Haven. oct. 2.-Yale students
assaulted policemen and created gen
rral disturbance last night that finally
involved squad of policemen in a
pitched battle with them. Three of the
students in the crowd We're placed I'M
der arrest with much difficulty. their
friends endeavoring by main force to
wrest them from the officers. The men
under arrest gave the names of Kay,
Hamilton and Carpenter. They range
in age from II to 10 years. They were
released on bonds ut midnight.
The trouble started when II party of
students took possession of Il truck
wagon. They drove the horses at
breakncck speed through the streets
after putting the driver off. There
were about 10 men upon the wagon and
clnging to the sides. All We're bolster
GUS ana some of them evidently intoNi-
Gated. The driver told Police Sergeant
Crocker what the students had done.
Crocker began to take the students
Off. He intended merely to restore the
team to the driver. The students
struck and knocked Crocker down and
his cheek was cut and his eye black
ened. He was left on the sidewalk
daZcd.
Other policemen came to his rescue.
Up Church street to the green Il run
ming fight was kept up with the Off
GERS. The students surged about the
police and fought the officers, who had
hard work to defend themselves. They
We're hemmed in too closely to use
their clubs and We're beaten with fists
and clubs by the students. For half
an hour after the arrests a throng of
students surrounded the station house.
Some tried to force an entrance and
the doors had to be locked. The men
arrested will be arraigned on the charge
of breach Of the peace.

Doctors at Funerals,

A correspondent asks one of my med
cal contemporaries: When a medical
man attends the funeral of a patient,
should his carriage precede the hearse.
or follow the other carriages in the
procession" The editor replies that
at would be quite out of place for a
doctors carriage to precede the
hearse." That may be his opinion;
but there may be others who will
think it in accordance with the fitness
OF things that the doctor should figure
in the procession as conducting the
deceased to the grave. EvidIntly the
doctor who asked the question thought
that he ought to 60 in front, and he
ought to know better than anybody
else how far he was entitled to the
most prominent position in connection
with the ceremony. Personally, were
I a doctor, think should keep as far
away from my patients funerals as
possible 1t is one of the few cases
where the professional rules against
advertising seem to be entirely in the
interest of the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Truth.
