THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Items of Interest to Parents and
Friends of the Pupils.

The attendance in the public schools
last week was remarkably good con-
sidering the unfavorable weather.
Total days absence 29l, daily
average of 5S, giving an attendance OF
1913 per cent BY buildings as follows:
Seventh Ward, 96.4 per cent: School
street 92.6 per cent. The attendance
in Miss Whitney's school was most re-
markable there being no absence ana
no hardness, record seldom gained
Miss Woods school had 1913 and Miss
Hazel Harris school 80 per cent.
Miss Blanche Sprague and Miss
Maud Bottum. both teachers in STAN
ford village school, visited recently
the Bennington schools for the pur-
pose of studying the methods in use
here.
The piano given by Col. DIN Scott
years ago to the school, has been
moved to the Seventh ward school, a
new instrument having been pur-
chased last year for the large school
hall.
There have been fewer cases of con-
tagious diseases among school chill
dren the first ten weeks of the school
year than in the same period for
many years.
The pupils in several rooms have
purchased and fitted out gold fish
bowls as part of their effort to make
their rooms attractive.

The marital relations of Bert Martell
and Lucy Norton Sartwell Of West
Derby appear complicated and both
are now in Orleans county Jail at New
port, charged with bigamy.
In 1898 1t appears Lucy Norton was
married to Bert Sartwell at Barton.
Five years ago Bert Martell married
Hattie Slack of Richford. Last March
Bert Martell and Lucy Norton Sart-
well were married at Newport. Mar
tell also goes by the name OF Blake.
When the parties were taken into mum
icipal court Martell admitted his previ
GUS marriage but contended that he af-
terward learned that the wife of his
first marriage had a living husband
and for that reason he supposed his
first marriage was nullified without
the action of court. The coincid'
ence In this case is strange as the Sart
well woman was In the same predic-
ament as her companion. she too, ad-
hitting marriage with Sartwell but
saying that she afterward learned
that he had living wife from whom
he had been legally separated and sup
posed that her marriage the first time
was illegal and void.
States Attorney E. A. Cook found
the whereabouts of Bert Sartwell at
Laconia n. H., and telephoned him
about the mixed condition of the par.
ties at Newport and asked If he could
give any light on the subject. An
other wonderful coincidence was dis
closed, Sartwell telling the same story
as the others. He, too, had been dup
ed into marrying woman who he
said now lived in Bedford, Que, and
for the same reason as the others
thought himself victim of injured in
nocence and that his marriage was
void
States Attorney Cook has decided
to give the matter thorough sitting
out and will make trip to Bedford
Que, for the purpose of unravelling

German Ruler, in Historic Hall
of ST. George

WINDSOR, England Nov. l3.-ln
the historic hall Of ST. George at Wind
son castle King Edward and Queen
Alexandra gave u state banquet last
night in honor of the German kaiser,
the empress and many other notables.
The hall, which for centuries has been
associated with the Order of the Gar
ter, was decorated with the banners
of the principal knights of the order.
while the tables were adorned with
the famous golden plate, one OF the
great heirlooms of the sovereigns OF
England
Departing from the usual custom,
King Edward and Emperor William
sat side by side with the queen on the
right and the empress on the left.
Around the tables, which were set for
1870 guests, there was gathered most
brilliant company, including many
members of the British royal house,
the suits of the visiting sovereigns,
cabinet ministers and former cabinet
ministers and ambassadors and other
diplomatic representatives. Among the
ambassadors was Whltelaw Reid.
King Edward proposed the health OF
Emperor William, who made acknowl-
edgment in short speech, closing With
a toast to the English king.
Emperor William alluded gracefully
TO his happy childhood under the roof
and within the walls of grand old
Windsor castle. and he expressed the
earnest wish that the close relation
| shin existing between the two royal
| families should be reflected in the re-
lations of the two countries and thus
| aid the peace of the world. which, he
| said, was the constant endeavor OF
! King Edward and himself.
| Professor Sir Felix Semon, physician
extraordinary tn King Edward, a
noted throat specialist, was visitor
| at the castle and. II is said. examined
! the German emperors throat.
There is no intention of discussing
at Windsor any concrete political ques-
ton" said Herr Won Schoen, secretary
of the German foreign Office, who Is ac-
companying Emperor William on his
maiesty's visit to England
Germany and England are in the
happy position of having no actual po-
| liticai questions outstanding. but we
hope and believe that the enperor's
visit will bring about renewal of the
old time affectionate relations between
the two countries.
Their relations have always been
correct, but this is not enough. There
is an increasing desire that they be-
come something more. Germany does
not look for any specially defined po-
| litical agreement or understanding that
might give rise to apprehension in the
case Of any other power,
MY hope simply is that the relations
between the two governments may be-
come more closely assimilated to the
not only correct but affectionate rela-
tons existing between the reigning

alias Paul HALFWAY, Of Fort Smith,
Ark, who was arrested here charged
with passing numerous worthless
checks in this city and who is believed
to have worked extensively throughout
the country was accused of other
forgeries.
S. G. Betz, a banker Of Homer City,
Ind. talked with the local authorities
over the telephone and alleged Smith
had passed check for $500 on him,
while half q dozen other checks for
the same amount were passed on busi-
ness men of Homer City.
"He had visiting cards from George
Gould, John Jacob Astor and many
other prominent men," said Mr.. Betz
over the telephone.
Edward Eggers of the Carnegie IL
brary. Allegheny. identified the folio
containing the photographs of promi
nent men of western Pennsylvania
which was found on Smith as one that
was recently stolen from the library.
Among the well known men with
whom he has had dealings are Charles
NJ Schwab. former Vice President
Levi p. Morton, j. Pierpont Morgan
and Thomas A. Edison.

J. Pierpont Morgan was not so easy
apparently, as the comment on the
great tinancier was:

In Smiths room was found biogra.

notes opposite the names of prominent
capitalists, and the police believe he
was about ready to begin operations
here. There were also portraits and
signatures OF many New Workers..

HELD ON LARCENY CHARGE
Alleged to Have Stolen 10 Mileage
Books From the Central Vermont.

Brattleboro, Nov. 12.-Wiliam
Quinn of this town, who was arrested
in White River Junction Saturday and
taken to Newfane Jail yesterday, was
arraigned before Justice Charles S.
Chase at Newfane today on the charge
of stealing 10 mileage books. of 500
miles each, from the Central Vermont
railroad station at Townshend. He
pleaded not guilty and was held for
the April term of County court in
bonds of $500. Being unable to
furnish bonds he was placed in Jail.
The offense constitutes grand larc-
eny. but the justice made the bonds
small in amount, because he said the
state did not produce evidence enough
to warrant holding the respondent
in a larger sum.
Charles Hutchinson of Brattleboro
whom Quinn said sold him the mile
age books, was placed under bonds
in the sum of $50 to appear as a wit.
ness and was released on his own
recognizance. The books were stolen

TRUST IN BANKS
RATHER THAN

Church Enters Protest Against
Dropping Old Motto
RELIGION AND PATRIOTISM
I'VE Are Going to Cast off Our Sheet
Anchor" Says Rev. Or e. NJ. Stires
at New York.

NEW YORK, Nov. -. - Protest
against dropping the words I'm God
We Trust" from the new gold eagle
was made by the Rev. William j.
Peck, pastor Of the Union Presbyte-
rian church of Corona, n. Y, at the
meeting Of Presbyterian ministers in
the Presbyterian building az 1876 Fifth
avenue. In speaking In favor of res
oution Mr.. Peck said 1t looked as II
the nation was beginning TO put its
trust in banks and trust companies in
stead of in God. and he suggested that
the recent financial stress might be
traced to forgetfulness of God.
Clergymen of other denominations
emphatically lndorse6 Mr.. Peck's sen
timents.
THE motto In God We Trust on
our coins said the Rev. DR.. Ernest
NJ. Stires. rector of St Thomas Epis-
copal church, Fifth avenue and Fifty
third street, stands for religion and
patriotism. and there should be mighty
weighty reasons for its withdrawal. |
should like to know what actuated the
people in Washington.
II must confess when | beard Of the
matter | was surprised. | could not
understand 1t. and | wondered If we
were going TO cast off all Slr sheet
anchors. We have parted with too
much already. and surely we were not
going TO erface the very name of God,
II Is something. after all, 10 be cher
ished very dearly in this materiallstic
age to have the name of God on the
country's coin. In the awful struggle
for the dollar 1t is well. even if it be
in spite of ourselves, that Gods name
comes before us.
II am surprised that the people at
Washington. even If they want to for.
get the name of God. should be SO
shortslghted as to offend the religious
susceptibilities of the people, for In
spite of all, deep down in their hearts
the millions have the love of God. And
the politicians. you know, are rather
careful not to give offense.
THE people will resent all this in nc
uncertain way, and those responsible
will find that they cannot with impu
nifty try to destroy what is dearest tC
peoples hearts. In God We Trust Is
good religion. good patriotism, and il
is good Anglo Saxonism. You cannot
wipe out that motto from the heart OF
the nation.
II am glad to see that our Presby
terrain friends have taken the matter
up, and | hope their example will bt
followed by every denomination in the
country. The Presbyterians seem tt
think that forgetfuness of God is re
sponsible for our recent financial tr0u
bles, and | do not disagree with them
We know in all history what forget
fulness Of God has meant for nations
This terrible lesson of history should
not be forgotten, for fOrgetfulness OF
God brought about their fall
But | do not believe that we as g
nation have forgotten God. / believe
the heart of the nation is sound reli
giously and that in God we trust, jus
as our fathers did"

the case of State VS.. George T. How
ard, ex-railroad commissioner, closed
with Mr.. Howard on the stand with
his expense account being searchingly
investigated by Acknowledgement

jury, four being excused for cause chal
lenged by the defense and two by the
state.
In opening the case Mr.. Fits sum-
married. the specifications which,
separated into this part contain 5000
different items. The state claims Mr..
Howard charged illegally for 55 days
at So each amounting to $3.50, for 55
charges of $1.50 each for nights spent
at the hotel In Hardwick, charging
the state each time for that full day
before Hardwick was reached, for tel
ephone charges of $11.30. for teams be
tween Hardwick and Craftsbury on
20 occasions at 81 each and for ten
other days expense account. The en-
tire amount the state seeks to recover
totals $645.
The expense account of 1925 was
first taken up which represented the
charge at the Van Ness House in Bur
lington, June 2S, 1906, for Mrs. How
ard. 7. p O'Brien, head clerk, was
the first witness and produced the ho-
tel register and the ledger to verify
the claim made by the state. The
voucher for this amount from the aud
itor's Office was also put in evidence.
Horace f. Graham state auditor was
the next witness and explained
how the accounts of the state officials
were paid and all of the vouchers paid
| TO Howard June /, 1904, until August
81, 1906, were put in evidence. Mr.
Fits drew out from Mr. Graham that
| the stage fare from Hardwick and
Craftsbury was only rs cents but on
cross examination Mr. Graham admit
ted that everybody who could avoided
| the stage and made the journey by
team.
Mr.. Howard was on the stand the
rest of the afternoon and the separate
| items in the bill of specifications were
closely examined by Mr.. Fits. 1t APP
peared on several occasions that Mr..
Howard had charged the state for ho-
| tel bills at Springfield. Mass, and Han
| over, y. H.. which he explained by say
| ing that he could not get home on
those days and chose hotels in prefer
ence to travelling nights.
He admitted that he kept the money
| for the team vouchers for which his
sons and hired men had receipted and
said that these vouchers were in pay
ment for the use of his own team.
Nearly all the telephone charges were
messages sent home ordering his team
to met him at Hardwick. He admit
ted the stage fare from Craftsbury to
| Hardwick was less but said he always
used a team even before he was rail
road commissioner.
