county. at the instigation and under the
prosecution of Rev. George w. Morrow,
president of the Vermont Anti-Saloon
league, were nOl-prossed, following the
recent action of the State supreme court.
The cases against William Hope, E. w.
Train and Edward Barton were con-
tinued, as were also all of the old cases
which had been disposed of at previous
terms and the respondents in which had
been put in the charge of the probation
officer. Two cases against Fred G. Bar
nard of Vergennes for illegal selling were
continued i'll consequence of physicians
atiidavits to the fact that the respondent
was too i'll to appear in court The
cases against AlOnZO Crossman for big
amy and Ralph Douglass for burglary
were held open There We're two cases
for fishing contrary to law, one each
against George w. Steadman of Bristol
and G.. +. Bristol of Lincoln, and both
cases were continued for the reason that
the respondents are both jurymen at this
term. The case against William Brad
ley and that against Henry Stone for
assault were uol-prOssed.
The case of State vs.. Sidney Crane, a
new information charging larceny of a
watch and overcoat at Vergennes, was
assigned by States Attorney Russell as
the first criminal case to be tried, and it
was begun at the afternoon session Of
the court yesterday.
There are six prisoners in the county
Jail and States Attorney Russell has
filed informations against various male
factors, so that with the indictments
reported by the grand jury there would
be plenty to keep the court busy fol
another couple of weeks should the re-
spondents all stand trial. This, how
ever, is highly improbably, and so with
the expected pleas of guilty in some
cases and necessary contlnuances in
others, it now looks certain that the
term will easily be brought to an enc
before the close of next week.
Sheriff Smith has appointed an add
tional deputy sheriff in the person of II

Carroll College 6.

On Saturday last the Carroll College
team met defeat at the hands of the
n. w. u team. North western kicked
off and held Carroll Tor downs. few
cross-bucks were tried and then Kumm
was pushed over the goal-line for the
first touch down. Breutzmann kicked
goal Motzkus kicked to Carroll and
they did not return the ball for more
than ten yards. Carroll hammered
Northwestern s line until they were at
the center of the field. They were
forced to punt and Whyte handled the
punt poorly, for one of Carroll's play
ers dropped onto the ball eight yards
from Northwestern goal. Carroll
was pushed over for touch Gown and
they also kicked goal. The ball was
in the center of the field when time
was called. Score 6 to 6.
In the second half Carroll kicked to
Northwestern who returned the ball
for twenty-five yards. Northwestern
made steady gains until they reached
thirty yard line. Sauer took the ball
and could have made a touch down
had he not been tripped by someone.
Woyahn was pushed over for touch
down. Breutzmann kicked goal.
However, before Sauer made his long
run, North western had been near
CAROLS goal very often, but they al
ways lost the ball on fumbles. After
Northwestern made the touchdown,
they got possession of the ball and
were about five yards from Corroll S
goal when time was called The game
| was characterized by frequent fun
bles on the part OF both teams. Note
worthy was the playing of Breutzmann,
Woyahn and Sauer for n. W. and that
of Stuart and Carburry for Carroll.
The lineup was as follows:
