NOT A MODEL.
The demurrer in the foreclosure suit
of Geo. F. Renton VS.. Marian Reed
Austin and Herbert &c. Austin was
overruled by Judge Gear with ten days
for defendants to answer. There is a
clause in the mortgage, that unless all
of the conditions are complied with
there is a default in the performance,
and the decision says: 1.-The mortgage
is loosely drawn and should not be used
as a model of conveyancing by the
young practitioner, but nevertheless it
is not subject to the objections raised
herein
CONTEMPT CASE.

ruptcy hearing, committed four Chi
nese witnesses for contempt in neg

promise to do so Judge Estee ordered
their release. They are to appear in
court next Monday.

L. Peck against Carl r. Peck on COM

married another woman on the main
land.

ACTIONS BEL1ED WORDS.

From the evidence the court finds
that Sumner believed the trust deed
TO be revocable, also that Bishop Gull
stan held the same opinion. The
Davises were of like mind. when they
received $4,000 of the fund besides
$4,000 for their attorneys. Moreover,
1.-The six attorneys who represented the
various parties at the time of the dis
tribution were of the same opinion, or
else they were guilty of deliberately
Joining in the spoTiation of the trust
for a share Of the booty" Lastly, the
court SAYS. 1.-THE Ellises themselves
were of the same opinion, however
strenuously they may now deny it,"
The court reflects severely upon the
paucity of evidence as to the exact I'M
Outstanding on the final distribution Of
the fund, notwithstanding the large
interests involved, the length and heat
Of the negotiations, and the number
and ability of counsel" On this point
the conclusion is thus expressed:
SUMNER WANTED RADIANCE.
But il is clear what Summers in
tention was, and what all the relatives.
including the Ellises. knew it was,
and what they led him to believe, and
that they all knew that he gave them
the several sums on the strength Of
that belief, and that was that. upon
payment Of these sums, he would be
rid of them forever so far as the bal
ance OF the fund was concerned"

Verdict in the Patch Case.

The celebrated case of the f. r. Patch
Co. against Protection Lodge, No. 215
International Association of Machinsts
which has been on trial in the Rutland
county court since March 49, ended
Saturday morning in verdict for the
plaintiff. THE defendants are guilty in
the form as plaintiffs in their declaration
have alleged: we therefore find for the
plaintiff to recover of the defendants the
sum of So 800" The case was for $10,-
600, damages. The verdict was reached
after 90 hours deliberation by the jury
1t is said to be the only one of the kind
in this country and is considered as a
hard blow to unionism if the verdict is
sustained by the supreme court The
state and even the big city papers have
given much space to the reports of the
trial.
IT is understood that several other
concerns in Rutland which have been
damagedby strikes in similar manner
will also bring suits and it is known that
the Lincoln Iron Works. where the men
struck at the same time as at Patch 5,
will bring damage suit against the
same Protection lodge, but none OF these
cases will be tried at the present session
OF court.

Town Correspon d e IT'S.

1t is generally conceded that to a
Vermont editor belongs the honor of
first introducing to the newspaper world
the system of town correspondence
which has become such an essential and
interesting feature of country journal
ism and also of many papers in the cities
of the country says the Montpelier
Waterman. This man was the late q.
NJ Chase of the Lyndon Union. who, in
the early days of this paper, conceived
the idea of grouping the items from each
locality under separate head. The
innovation was Immediately appreciated
and one by one the country weeklies
followed the Unions lead until now no
country paper could live without its
columns of town items.
This system has necessitated the
advent of an almost countless army of
nameless newspaper writers about
whom the ordinary reader thinks little
but whose writings play an important
part in countless homes throughout the
country.
These writers do not reach so large an
audience as do those in larger cities
whose every moment is bound to a
wheel that is always turning, neverthe-
less no newspaper work throughout the
length and breath of the land is more
appreciated than theirs. This statement
will doubtless provoke merrlment, but If
so the laugh will come from those who
have never migrated to the great world
beyond the horizon of their native heath
and depended on a humble weekly paper
for the news from home.
In thousands of homes in the great
from the hills and valleys of New Eng
land have taken up their abode, the
coming of the weekly paper from home
is an event above Others in the ordinary
routine of life. When it comes every
thing else is laid aside until the eXiles
learn whether things fare good or i'll
with the old friends and neighbors at
home. In great daily lying unopened
there may be news that has startled the
world but Just now the intelligence that
an old schoolmate has laid down his
work forever is of more importance, the
village store or perhaps a well re-
membered barn is burned, someone is
clearing off woodlot, farm has been
sold, an old neighbours son has gone to
the city, or maybe some famous hunter
has made new foX-killing record this
season. Little things these are to be
sure, but they carry the exile back to
other days and other scenes and the
town correspondents mission is fulfilled

That Vermont offers plenty of oppor-
tunities for hustling, energetic young
men is again evidenced in what Repre-
sentative G.. B. Wheeler, of Rocking
ham, has done. A few years ago he
started in the laundry business at Bel
lows Falls, and by strict attention to
business has built up one of the best
paying small industries "of the paper
city" He has just doubled the capacity
of his power to enable him to take care
of his steadily increasing business.
There is no need to go west, young man.
There is plenty of room in Vermont for
hustling young men and for all the sur

Every week this paper turns down
some proposition to advertise some

the other tenth have no more merit
