tanned the ri Beta Phi sorority last Fri
day evening at a mock trial
The base ball team plays at Union to-
morrow afternoon. The games with
Albany high school and Syracuse have
been cancelled owing to an insufficient
amount of funds. The manager an
nounced the first part of last week that
he would cancel the games unless the
students paid their taxes. AS yet the
manager has received a very small
amount and in taking the course that he
did he has acted wisely. If the students
expect to have a good season they must
go into their pockets and help out the
manager. An extra game has been ar
ranged with Norwich to be played at
Montpelier on May IS.
C. L. Percy was in Massachusetts the
latter part of last week to pass the rail-
road examinations preparatory to place

Although the jurors had taken oath in
the jury room not to divulge what took
place after they retired, several of the
members said that as the impression had
gone out that eleven had voted for con-
viction they deemed it their duty to cor
rect that report.
At the end of the fourteen hours in
which the girls fate hung in the balance
eight men favored her absolute acquittal.
Even the four who voted for conviction
never entertained an idea of bringing in
a verdict of murder. Manslaughter in
the first degree was their decision, and
no amount of argument could change
their judgement.
Those who sat through the trial and
watched the faces of the jurymen We're
not surprised when they learned how the
men had voted, with one exception. 1t
had been thought generally that one of
the strongest Jurors for conviction was
David May, who occupied the eleventh
seat in the box. The opinion was based
on knowledge of how May had voted at
other trials, and much surprise was ex-
pressed when it became known he had
voted to acquit Nan. On the first ballot,
it was said May voted guilty" but
changed his vote on being convinced
Young could have committed suicide.
1t was fifteen minutes after the jury
retired that the first ballot was taken.
1t resulted in tie, the jurors voting as
follows; For acquittal, Nos. /, 5, Z, s, 8,
and 10; for conviction, Nos. 2, 3, 4, 6, 10,
and IL.
1t had been decided the question of
the degree of guilt should be left to a
later ballot When that was taken, it
was found that all six who had voted
for conviction were for manslaughter in
the first degree.
When the result was announced a
juryman who had voted for acquittal ex-
claimed: a." Well, / feel relieved. Pm
glad to see there is no chance of sending
that girl to the electric chair"
Another juror, who had walked up and
down the room nervously while the bal
lots We're being counted. said:
"The only thing ever feared was that
might be the only one in favor of
acquittdl, but | would have stood my
ground even if had been alone"
"No one believes there was murder in
the first degree" cried a juror, who
voted for conviction. But l believe

Premature Obituary Notice.

Albert II. Copeland, very much alive,
visited the editor of this paper on We'd
nesday morning and handed him copy
of the Boston Americans issue of May 8
containing the following dispatch:

FIRST DISPATCHER DIES.

NIiddlebury, Vt, May Sword has
been just received here of the death in
Chenoa, H., of Albert Copeland, who
was the first telegraph operator in Mid
dlebury, and who claimed the honor of
being the first railway train dispatcher
in the world.
Mr.. Copeland is trying to figure out
where the American secured material for
such a startling announcement.
In view of the fact that Mr. Copeland
is a guest at the Logan House and may
be seen upon our streets every day 1t
would seem that imagination had to be
drawn upon wholly to make him dead
man. Mr.. Copeland promptly wired the
American that he was alive and very
much SO and from the way he discussed
the matter of premature obituaries we
are inclined to believe him.

Mr.. Patterson said that Nan would
come Immediately to her home in this
city if released.
1--WE expect her within a very short
WHILE" said he. Father, of course, will
come with her"
Mrs. Patterson is said to be bearing up
reasonably well under the circumstances,
and looks forward eagerly to the return
of her husband, who throughout the
trial has remained in New York, doing
all in his power to comfort his two
daughters confined in the Tombs, and of
Nan, whom she has not seen for over a
year.
She is said to have confidently ex-
pected an absolute acquittal, and was
greatly disappointed at the outcome of
the third, and probably the last, trial.
There were only two subie of con-
versation in Washington last night. 1t
would be difficult to say which attracted
the most attention-the trial of Ann
Eliza Patterson, more euphoniously
Known as Nan, or the triumph of the
Nationals.
Wherever one or two were gathered
together the same things were discussed
Later they gathered in groups of three
o'clock the newspaper offices were be-
seiged by crowds of anxious watchers
for news of the fate of the "Florodora"
girl. While they watched the bulletins
they discussed the eleven-inning victory
in Philadelphia, which hoisted the
Nationals to the top step of the league
ladder.
The crowds around the bulletin boards
not only downtown but at the drug
stores in the outskirts of the city, indi-
Gated an interest shown only on election
night. Telephone inquiries as to the
baseball score and the jury verdict were
numerous.
The leaning of the sentiment toward
the side of the defendant in the New
York case was apparent. Speculation
was rife as to the verdict of the jury,
and there were very few who didn't
have the result figured out to their own
satisfaction long before the jury went to
dinner, and the first rumors were afloat
as to its attitude.
The first report that the vote had been
8 to three in favor of acquittal produced
considerable mild applause. But the
hours went by and the wires failed to
confirm the rumor. The later announce
ment that the jury stood 7 to for con-
viction was received in dumb silence
If the bulletin board had announced
that Nan was free once more the
watchers would have given vent to their
feelings with a cheer and dispersed tc
their homes with feeling of satisfaction
That is, most of them would. There
were a few who insisted from first tC
last on the girls guilt and predicted
nothing less than a verdict of murder il
the first degree.
The final disagreement of the jury die
not meet with the satisfaction of any
contingent. No one liked to have the
question left in doubt. even though tn,
disagreement might result in Nan Pat
terson's freedom.
