Operations, pending a settlement OF the
trust c0mpang's affairs, their legal ad.
yisers brought it abu0t that the money
necessary to complete the plant should
be considered as a special deposit It
Is not supposed that the money was
legally Regarded as such prior TO the
hanks troubles, or the contractors would
not have stopped work. As it is, the
|depositors win not be able to get at the
money anyway.
It is considered possible, however, that
at the hearing which will he held the
26th to determine whether the inlunc-
ton shall be continued, that much OF
the inside history Of the local companies
will have to be told ia court. Receiver
Douglas Robinson probably will have
TO give exact status of the Chittenden
Power Co. Even if the injunction i
granted, it ii thought unlikely that
David Fox will be removed as receiver
of the railway company.

The Cruelty of Pate de Fofe Gras.
To eat pate de fois gras is luxury,
but to prepare the delicacy for the table
is prolonged torture-for the goose The
Humanitarian league of England has
issued pamphlet on the subject. 1--WE
behold" says an eyewitness, '1nnu-
merable geese in this torture chamber,
bound fast to the table They lie on
their backs as If crucified. We watch
ed how the women pressed some new
victims against the tables so that the
hinder parts should hang over the
edge" Two months of torture for the
goose are considered necessary before
its liver is sufficiently diseased to be
marketable, The fowls are fed to re-
pletion with sailed maize, and by this
means the liver is increased to the alb
normal weight Of two or even three
pounds. Strassburg and Toulouse are
the chief places of manufacture and
the trade amounts to several hundred
thousand dollars annually.

and Guards was the most interesting
of the series. The Invincibles are
now in the lead and the other teams
are putting forth every effort to
overtake them. Consequently in the

After over an hour of hard play the
score still stood even. The game
