wood were resumed to-day, Attorney
Richardson took up the examination Of
Juror j. r. Waggoner who had already
been accepted, subject To peremptory
challenge BY the prosecution. IT developed
early that Waggoner had been approach
ed by man who tried to tell him about
the merits Of the case. The Judge was
informed ana the man was placed under
arrest and bound over to the district
court.
"A peculiar fact which has caused con.
siderable comment ii that 50 far every
talesman questioned said he was Re
publican. This has given rise to the all
legation that discrimination has been
shown in summoning veniremen but the
sheriff resents this implication. Con-
Itrary to expectations few veniremen are
trying to avoid jury duty, despite the
fact that most al them are farmers and
stockmen, whose work binds them at
this time Of the year.

HALF-FARE TICKETS
FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN
Granted to Montpelier BY The Traction
Company at Request Of City
Council.

Pursuant to the request Of tha Mont
pelier city council the Barre and Mont
pelier Taction company today granted
half fare tickets for Montpelier school
children travelling from the Pioneer to
the city. This was done after informa-
tion had been received from John w.
Redmond. chairman Of the state rail-
road commission, that the act would not
be Illegal provided all children under the
age Of q were allowed to use the tick
cts on tho stated cars.
The half.fare school children's tickets
were withdrawn at the same time the
worknen's tickets were taken Of IN this
city, the claim being that such sale con-
stituted discrimination. The city OF
Montpelier transports its school child
rem in the outlying districts rather
than to build more school houses. II
has been paying full fare since the old
tickets we're withdrawn, and the couu-
ell there was considering tile adyisability
OF putting on barge.

The fence near the gateway. Unce inside
they chased and harried the imprisoned
deer to death. The deer, with less than

treme corner Of the park, there To meet
the fangs Of the dogs one after the other.
