THE B1R DOCK EFT

The bar docket of the March term
of Washington county court is just
out. 1t shows the court business of
this county to be once more in a
healthy condition, for during the last
two terms a large number of cases
that were practically dead have; been
cleaned off the docket, though there
are still some of that kind left. The
decrease in the number of criminal
cases is especially noticeable, on ac-
count of States Attorney Hoar's ac-
ton last term in disseminating many
of the dead liquor cases.
There are now 406 cases on the
docket of which $50 are civil suits, 90
are chancery, and "a criminal prose-
cutions. OF the civil suits a large
majority are assumpsit while 80 are
for divorce. Since divorce cases can
be entered for trial for some time yet
thre is good prospect of having
enough divorce business for while.
There are but few serious criminal
cases the most prominent being: State
v. Jesse Norton, bigamy; State V. e.
M. Sutton, defaming court; State ".
Mrs John Whalen, assault with in
tent to kill; State v. Nicholas Sara,
same charge and State v. Munroe FL
field, burglary. There is one case for
riding bicycle on sidewalk, State
v. E. E. Evans, and one relating to a
dog license, State V. Juan Colaines
The oldest civil case on the docket
is Andrew A. Sweet v. B. w. Green,
which has been in court since 1879.
The chancery case of Merrill Eastman
" Fanny B. Currier, ex'rs, is of the
same age.
The trial calendar will not be out
until shortly before court opens so il
cannot be seen now how much OF
this business will come up before
Judge Stafford, who will preside in
Washington county court this term.

BLOOD HUM0URS
Skin HumourS, Scalp Humoyrs,
Hair Humours,
Whether Simple SCrofuIouS or
Hereditary
Speedily Cured by Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Pills,
When All Other Remedies and
Best Physicians Fail.
COMPLETE TREATMENT, Sl.OO.

In the treatment of torturing, disfig-
uring, itching, scaly, crusted, pimply,
blotchy and scrofulous humours of the
skin, scalp and blood, with loss of hair,
Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills have
been wonderfully successful. Even
the most obstinate of constitutional hui
mours, such as bad blood, scrofula, in
herited and contagious humours, with
loss of hair, glandular swellings, ulcer
GUS patches in the throat and mouth,
sore eyes, unprecedented blotches, as
well as boils, carbuncles, scurvy, sites,
ulcers and sores arising from an inn
pure or impoverished condition of the
blood, yield to the Cuticura Treatment,
when all other remedies and methods
fail.
And greater still, if possible, is the
wonderful record of cures of torturing,
disfiguring humours among infants and
children. The suffering which Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment have alleviated
among the young, and the comfort
they have afforded worn-out and wor-
ried parents, have led to their adoption
in countless homes as priceless cura-
tives for the skin and blood. Infantile
and birth humours, milk crust, scall
head, eczema, rashes and every form of
itching, scaly, pimply skin and scalp
humours, with loss of hair, of infancy
and childhood, are speedily, perma-
nently and economically cured when
all other remedies suitable for children.
and even the best physicians, fail.

RAIDS AT MONTH ELIER.

Sheriff G.. B. Evans and several of
his deputies late Wednesday afternoon
made calls at a few places in town
which had been suspected of selling
liquor, armed with warrants for search
and seizure OF all contraband liquid
goods. Five places were raiued but
at only one of these did the officers
find anything which they thought was
beyond the permissible two per cent
in strength.
Sheriff Evans with deputies @. A.
Smith and Martin Fitzgerald of Mont
pelier, and G. D. Robinson of Water
bury, called on Lou" Douglass at his
pool room and also on Sarafino Mas
succo ut his store near the corner Of
Barre street, but at neither place did
they find anything. At the same time
Deputies W. F. Shepard and Henry
Premier of Barre and George Lackey
of Worcester went to +. A. Standish's
cigar store and found nothing They
were more successful however when
they dropped into Frank l.. Hunting
toms pool roOm There in a closet
found a half barrel nearly full of ale
and at once took possession of it.
Having taken possession of this ale
Officers Shepard, Lacksy and Premier
dropped into W. E. Poole's drug store
but found nothing there.
The next scene of this little drama
was enacted in city court where the
liquor was tried and condemned The
case was on the docket as State V.
Intoxicating Liquors, Frank L. Hunt
ington, claimant. Huntington admit
ted that the stuff found was ale but
said he had it for his own private use.
After he made this claim, the State,
represented by Burton E. Bailey, put
in the testimony of the officers as to
the conditions under which the ale
was found. Mr. Huntington refused
to have counsel but insisted under
oath that the ale was for his private
use Tie court, however, rem
dered. judgment, condemning the
liquor, ordering it spilled, and Mr..
Huntington to pay the costs of the
search. amounting to So. 81. After
few minutes talk with H. @. Shurtleff
Huntington took appeal from this de-
cision and furnished a bond for costs
in the sum of 800 signed by himself
and Edward Gill.
