for debt who had obtained the liberty
of the yard by giving bond that if they
should go beyond the limits, which were
then mile every way from the Jail, the
debt would be paid. The further end of
the wall was mile from the Jail and as
far as they could go without making
their bondsmen liable. eacon Kenney
paid them II IL cents day each for the
work.
The first jail yard was laid out by the
court on Newfane hill at the November
term, 1888, - to extend four rods south of
the south end of the Gaol, and ten rods
west of the west side of the Gaol, and
extended ten rods east, the said lines to
close and be at right angles, with II e priv
ilege of going on Sundays only in direct
course to the court house to attend pub
lie worship" When the shire was
located at Newfane the people there
were to provide a court house, which
they did by making it of the meeting
house. but its use for meetings was con-
tinued.
At the November term, 1890, the Jail
yard was charged to begin, at the
North East corner of Mr.. Chambers
store" which stood a little way down on
the west side of the road going south,
thence to the fence, ION the east side of
the reverend Mr.. Taylor's pasture"
which was where the pasture is now on
the south side of the road at the top of
the hill, thence northerly in the direc-
ton of the fence to 1.-The southerly line
of lot No. q" which was the north line
of the common, thence easterly on that
line to the northwest corner of lot No.
TO-" which was on the east side of the
road running north, thence along, and
in the direction of the west line of No.
TO-" which was along the east side of the
road, ito place due east of the afore-
said corner of Mr.. Chambers store, and
then west to the bounds first mentioned"
and the sheriff was directed to stake out
the same. These limits included the
common and about half of the moving
south of the common, which was part
of Mr.. Taylor's farm. They were after
wards enlarged to mile around the Jail,
as mentioned. Afterwards, by law, jail
yards were extended to the limits of
towns in which they stood, then to the
limits of the counties, and then to the
bounds of the state, which are the limits
now, for under some circumstances men,
but not women, may still be committed
to Jail for debt.

"NO Gold in Vermont"

Statements made by Prof. W. P. Mason
of Troy, N. Y, are based on rather poor
footing, if he takes few samples from
someone in the southern part of Yer
mont and uses that for the whole state.
Now | am Vermonter and am for it
every time and when any man outside of
the state trys to down the old Green
Mountain resources even in minerals 1
for one wish to repE.S I have had some
experience in mineals in Vermont and
own some claims, and can show anyone
as good prospects in Termont as they can
see in the western states. | have assays
that were made in Colorado, running on
one property S66.40 gold to the ton be-
sides silver ~ and "copper" another of
$55 gold made by Mr.. Reed, mining ex-
pert; another of 800 to the ton by
Prof. C. II. Richardson of Hanover, N.
H.; another claim, 10 assays by Mr..
Richardson, averaging S11. to the ton
of 1000 pounds; another by him of close
to 50 per ton on the average
Now by the article ''No Gold in Yer
mont" should think Professor Mason
had great disliking for Vermont and
do not think it just statement to make
if he based his opinion on two or three
samples from some remote corner of the
state or takes New England from reports
made 80 years ago, before one-half of
the mineral resources were even dreamed
of in any state. We have good copper
mines in this section and plenty of other
minerals if we had men to boom the in
dustry instead of blowing for some other
state. Would some of those out-of-state
people pick up gold in their back yard if
they saw it. l am mining on small
scale and I will send you something
more by and by if you want to help Yer
mont no more than it DIES ives.

teeth were lost and loosened, and the
lower lip badly cut, besides other severe
bruises. Drs Burnett of South Royalton

Body of Infant Found.

born infant was found in the White river,
near the mouth of the Maple street sewer
in White River junction which empties
into the river by the high school grounds.
1t was taken from the water and after an
examination by DR.. 7. F. Garland was
buried by order of tho selectmen. Doc
tor Garland gives as his opinion that the
case was one of recent delivery and that
the body had been in the water but a
short time when discovered. The cur
rent opinion is that criminal operation
had been performed and the body thrown
into the river with the expectation that
it would float down stream and finally
be lost to sight.

CATARRH CURED BY DRY AIR.
Hyomei Medicates the Air ho"
Breathe, Kills the Germs and Cures
the Disease.

Hyomei Medicates the Air You
Breathe, Kills the Germs and Cures
the Disease.
Hyomei cures catarrn thoroughly ana
permanently, because it reaches the small
est air cells in the head, throat and lungs,
kills the germs causing the disease ana
drives it from the system. Hyomel goes
to the root of the disease, destroys the
cause, and makes permanent cures wmch
can be effected in no other way. Breathe
it for few minutes four times day and
benefit will be seen at once. Continue TINS
treatment for few weeks ana Hyomel
will have cured you.
The Hyomei in the inhaler furnished
with the outfit dries and sterilizes the air
you breathe. 1t is local and direct treat
ment for Graduating all catarrh germs in
the mucous membrane and tissues and IN
this way cures catarrh in any part of the
system. Used in connection with Hyomei
Balm it has been successful in curing the
worst and most deepseated cases OF ca
tarrhal deafness.
A. w. Clark of Everett Mass, writes :
81 have spent a fortune on different treat
ments for catarrh and could not hear
across the table. After using Hyomei and
Hyomei Balm for eight days l can hear as
well as ever"
Stronger than any claims that can be
made in an advertisement, is the fact that
c.. n. Shaw at Andrews drug store will
give his personal guarantee with every
Hyomei outfit he sells to refund the money
if the purchaser can say that Hyomei has
not given satisfaction.

Forty. Three Pounds of Dressed Trout

These are the figures that blow all
previous records higher than a kite, and
establish Drs. E. w. Knight and NJ.
L. Morrison the champion trout fishers
of Windham. Dexterity in extracting
molars seems to give cunning twist to
the wrist which is of advantage in hook
ing the speckled beauties. Messrs. Knight

day night and were not again seen in
Bellows Falls until Monday. About II
O'Clock they blew into town and like con-
quering heroes of old " we're given an ova-
ton all along the line. Everybody want

contained 43 pounds of dressed trout,
there being in all 2S3. When asked
where they were caught the only reply
was ''over there"

Letter to Fred Lawton.
BELLOWS FALLS.

Dear Sir: Here's an interesting story
about paint. We give you the name of the
story-teller; write him and find out all
about it.
John Hanna, grocer, of Girard, Penn,
painted his house with Devoe Lead and
Zinc paint. He thought it expensive. but
he bought it. After finishing the lob he
brought back nearly half the paint and
said it was the cheapest job of painting he
ever did.
Write to Burt Young and E. III. Hitler OF
the same place. Also to H. H. Stephenson,
cashier OF Oil City pa Savings Bank.
1t is the cheapest paint in the world
because it is all paint. 1t covers most sur
face to the gallon, and it wears longest.
There's going to be lot of this paint
used in Bellows Falls. When il gets a foot
hold, it never lets up; and the painter who
uses Devoe Lead and Zinc is going to save
money for his patrons.
Yours truly,

answer.
No conscientious chemist would employ
alcohol in any remedy designed to cure kid
ney irritation. 1t imperils the lives of the
men and women who take such preparations
and there is absolutely no reason why any
sick person should add to their load OF
dread and uncertainty when DIR. Pettln-
gilrs Kidney Wort Tablets, much more
effective remedy, and one free from any
suspicion Of alcohol, because the tablets do
not require it, is easily obsainable at any
frSt-class druggists.
Kidney-Wort Tablets relieve and cure
kidney diseases and urinary troubles even
when all other remedies fail to show any
improvement.
Of all diseases. kidney affections need
the earliest attention. y temporary letting
up of the strain on the kidneys when the
first arrangement appears, has saved
thousands of lives.
Fortunately, every one knows when his
kidneys are sick Backache, loss of appe-
tite, cloudy or milky colored, fragrant

acknowledgements trouble with the kidneys.
These are the the beginnings of kidney
arrangement The word disease need
never appear if Kidney-Wort Tablets are
Immediately employed
If every cold, every strain, every eXer-
ton brings backache, the weakness is
located in the kidneys. Take any ordi-
nary white glass bottle, fill it with urine
and let it stand day If deposit settles
or it is h gh colored, use DR.. Pettingill's
Kidney-Wort Tablets without delay. You
will prevent Brights disease, infiamma-

will stop thinking about your kidneys or
