Death of r. j. Kimball.


Robert ]. Kimball died very sudden
ly at his home in New York Oct. Sd.
Col. Kimball left Randolph Friday
with his family for their winter home
at Brooklyn, N. Y, and his deaGh was
a great shock to that community.
The funeral was held at his late home
in Brooklyn Tuesday afternoon and
the interment was in Brooklyn. Col.
Kimball is survived by his wife and
son, W. Eugene, and two daughters,
Clara and Annie. William Eugene
has had charge of R. j. Kimba,ps bus
mess for the past year and will con-
tinue in that position.
Vermont Sunday Schools
Preparations are being made for
large gathering at the state Sunday
school convention in Burlington
October 1922. The prospect is that
the state will be more generally rep
resented this year than in any con-
vention for many years. Local COM
mittees have their work we'll in hand,
and the convention will be cared for
In the hospitable manner for which
Burlington is so we'll known. The
programme promises feast of good
things. The opening session, on
Tuesday afternoon, October 20, will
be of the nature of an institute con-
Quoted by Mrs. Ella d. Petit of New
Jersey, and will be of special value to
all teachers of primary and junior
classes in the Sunday school. 1t is
hoped that all such teachers from all
parts of the state will plan to be
present at this session. Mrs. Petit is
president of the New Jersey Primary
Union, and member of the National
Primary Union. She is considered
one of the most valuable of the force
of Sunday school experts now in the
field.
spotter Case.
1t may be safely said that from the
viewpoint of the public the most
interesting case to be tried at the
United States circuit court at Rutland
will be that of Samuel D. Wilson,
alias Waite, VS.. Percival W. Clement.
The plaintiff was the "spotter" So
called of White River shooting case
notoriety, nearly two years ago. He
sues Mr.. Clement for SANDER and
seeks to recover $50, 900 for injury to
his character and feeling. During the
bot campaign of 1902 when Clement
was assailing the prohibitory law and
the ofttime farce of its enforcement,
he referred to the episode at White
River Junction, in December 1901,
wherein one Goshen, was shot to
death by Wilson, who had just closed
an engagement under the direction of
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1903-10-12

the states attorney of Windsor county,
the nature of which was TO secure
convictions of violation of the pro-
hibitory law, among other matters.
The shooting was stigmatized as
murder" by Mr.. Clement, in the same
connection. This is the basis of Mr..
Wilson's action for SANDER. Mr..
Clement, by his plea in the case says
in effect, "True it is that called the
shooting murder; it was a murder,
and was justified in characterizing it
as SUCH" OF course, this means a
retrial of the whole issue, but under a
different rule of evidence. When
Wilson was tried at Woodstock, in
June of last year, it was incumbent
upon the state to satisfy the jury of
the guilt of the then Respondent
Wilson-"beyond reasonable doubt"
the rule in criminal cases. But when
the present case is tried at Rutland,
the burden will be upon the defend
ant, Clement to satisfy the jury Shy
fair balance of the evidence" only,
that the homicide was murder. The
fact that Wilson was acquitted at
Woodstock is not and cannot be an
| element to enter into the retrial of the
| fact. That case was between the state
of Vermont and the respondent Will
son; this will be between Wilson and
Clement.
| Barre Anarchist Shot,
During fierce fight with revolvers
and knives in the Italian Socialist hall
on Granite street, Barre, October 8,
between the anarchist and socialist
factions of the Italians, one man was
mortally wounded, another was shot
through the side and two others
stabbed, besides many with bruised
and Scared heads. The fight occurred
shortly before the time set for holding
a public meeting, which Giacinto M.
Serrati, editor of III Proletario, of New
York, an Italian socialist daily paper,
was to address. The subject of his
address was to be the ''Political I'm
portance of Socialism," and he was to
treat of matters that had been dis
cussed in his paper. Eli Corti, an
anarchist, was shot through the
stomach, the ball entering the abdo-
men just below the navel, passing
through the stomach and lodging in
the back, thus making two openings
in the stomach lining. The wound is
the same kind received by President
Mckinley and death is just as certain
Corti identified Alexander Garetto az
the man who shot him. Garetto
barely escaped from the hall alive
With blood streaming from a dozen
wounds on his head and body he fell
or was thrown down the stairs leading
to the hall, and ran to the police sta
ton, where he threw himself on the
mercy of the officers. He denied
however, that that he shot Corti

under the arm. He believed he was

LETTER TO 81. r. CUTLER,

BARTON, VT.
Dear Sir: You ask how many square feet
gallon will cover. Depends on condition of
Guiding.
There is a great deal of lying on this point.
The stock claim OF lying paints is 300 square
feet, two coats. It's lie, as a rule.
Devoe covers 800 to SOD our agents think.
We think 300 too low and 200 too hign; though
doubtless they both occur.
How much the other paints GOV n is equally
4 ubtful; we guess 100 to 400.
The truth is found in another comparison.
d voc is all paint, true pain, strong paint,
and full Lancashire; the others ia general are,
at the best, diluted adulterated and short
measure. T ey cover according to body and
measure. You can't paint with with clay

A suit has been brought against O..
NJ. Schwab, for selling the plant of
the Bethlehem Steel Company to the
United States Sbipbuilding Company
for $50, 900, 600 when it was really
worth only $4,000, 900. However, If
1T is true that Mr.. Schwab made a
mistake in determining the value of
the plant, it is only trivial error of
twenty million dollars. To a Yer
monter it seems like small business to
make a kick over little matter like
this.

The Morse Iron Works and Dry
Dock Company of New York city has
closed it's plant for an indefinite time.
This is one of the largest concerns of
its kind along the Atlantic coast and
a year ago employed 22O0 men with a
weekly payroll of s23, 900. According
to the statement of the company the
men employed in different depart
ments have made demands for
changes from time to time and be-
cause of the walking delegates who
have persisted in stirring up trouble
it has been impossible for the com.
pany to come to an agreement with
the Disconnected workmen and as
result it was decided to close the
works. The company claims to have
been operating the plant at loss for
some time. On account of constant
strikes it was impossible to finish
work on time and many ships which
had been locked for repairs were
taken elsewhere because of this.
The president of the company attrib-
utes the trouble to the walking dele
gates who picketed his yard and used
their influence with men who were
willing to work for reasonable wages,
but were forced to join the ranks of
the strikers through fear of violence
aud other intimidations.

Tidings OF the sudden death of Col.
Robert j. Kimball comes to shock his
friends and acquaintances-and their
name is legion - throughout the
state of Vermont. Col Kimball was
a Vermonter by birth, and thrice a
Vermonter in his love for his native
state and pride in her history. His
regard for Vermont was not entirely
of a sentimental kind. 1t took always
a practical turn, in efforts to aid and
encourage her material as we'll as her
moral interests. In this aspect of af-
fairs he was often more Vermonter
than some who "summered and win
tered" within the boundaries of the
state or seldom passed, for business
or pleasure beyond its confines. He
gave of his wealth freely for the ben
eft of Vermont and ungrudgingly
gave his time and labor to increase
the prosperity of the state at large, as
we'll as in the town of Randolph in
which he was born, in which was his
Vermont home and in which he had
his legal residence Exchange.

Liquozone is simply liquid oxgyen-no
drugs, no alcohol in it. 1t is the discovery
of Paul., that great German chemist, who
spent 10 years on it. Liquozone charges
the blood with, such an excess of oxygen
that no germ can live in any membrane
or tissue.
The results are inevitable. Any germ
disease must end when the cause is killed.
Then the oxygen-Nature's greatest tonic
quickly brings the sick one back to the
maximum of health.
This company, after testing Iiquozone
for two years in diseases called idcurabIe,
paid 500, 900 for the rights for the United
States. That fact shows our faith in It,
No other product ever discovered will do

NO INVESTIGATION, SAYS NoHE
Reply to Chicago Newspaper Report of
School Inquiry.

Springfield, Ills, March 14.-"There
will be no investigation, probe. or in
quiry of the Chicago schools or the
board of education. Neither the full
committee nor the subcommittee, of
which l am chairman, has the pow
er to make any such investigation if
it had the inclination. The consent
OF the entire house would be necessary
before a single move in that direction
could be made" This statement from
Representative Nohe chairman of the
house committee on education, was
made yesterday morning as result of
the publication of a report in Chica-
go to the effect that his committee had
named subcommittee to investigate
the Chicago board of education.
Nohe continued: II do not want to
offend any member of my committee,
but allowed the resolution to be Of
fered and adopted, as it was by a
unanimous vote, knowing very well
that such an investigation cannot be
adopted without the authority of the
house. Personally / do not believe
there is anything to investigate. am
willing to take the word of such men
as President Mark. Trustee Wolff, and
their associates as to the conditions in
the Chicago schools, but other men,
bers of the committee may have diff
ferent idea."
In addition to the Reputation OF
this story, members of both senate and
house gave the information that the
result of the school fight will be the
Recommendation for passage of the bill

senate and house committees will re-
port out their bill. next week in spite

also that this action, practically by a
unanimous vote in both committees,
will result in the passage of the bill at
an early date.

ATTORNEY GENERALS OPINION
Regarding tins Payment OF the Expense
OF the State ArchItecCs ONCE.

Regarding tbs Payment or the ExpenGes
OF the State ArchItecCs once.
Springfield. March 14.-During the
Louise session yesterday Wheeler read
n opinion from the attorney general
relative to the payment of the expenses
Of the state architects Office. The opin-
ion is addressed 10 Hon. c. J. Searle,
president Western Illinois State Nor.
NAL School, Rock Island. Ills, and is as
follows
Dear Sir:-Replying to your favor
OF the DIST inst would say: The statute
OF 1899 establishing the office of state
architect provides that his salary shall
be $1,000 per annum. There does not
seem to be any specific provision under
that statute by which payments for
the state architects personal travelling
expenses and the salary and pay of
draughtsmen. clerical help. etc, en-
plOyed by him in the preparation of
said plans and specifications can be al
lowed. Neither do find any appropria-
tons for the payment of such claims.
MY attention, however, is called to
q resolution adopted by the state
board of charities on the Sth day of
December, 1899, which, in effect, pro-
vides for the payment of the actual
necessary travelling expenses of the
state architect and his employees who
are engaged in the superintendenceand
construction of work. and also pay
inent for the printing of plans and
specifications and the material used for
the drawing OF plans, said amounts to
be paid out of the appropriation for
which the work was specifically per-
formed.
This question resolves itself more
into matter of business policy to be
pursued than a question of law. The
legislature having failed to provide for
thepayment of these expenses 1t would
seem to me that to compel the state
architect to make such payments out
of his salary of $1,000 per annum
would hardly be fair and just to him.
am therefore of the opinion that your
board would be justified in the pay
ment of such expenses, etc, of the
state architect, but would recommend
chat itemized bills be presented and
sworn TO by the various parties per-
forming the service for which claim
Tor payment is made. Yours truly,
u. II. HAMLIN,
Attorney General"
