COURSE OF BULLET
Shooting of Fairbanks Traced by Pic
lures,

Brattleboro, Oct 3O.-The defense at
Newfane today offered a Photograph
picture to show the course of the bull
let which nearly killed William Fair
banks on the night when he is alleged
to have murdered Mrs. Mary Grout,
his niece, at Saxtons River.
Several witnesses were called to tes-
tify as to the unsound condition of
Fairbanks mind. DR.. c. r. Aldrich
Of Brattleboro exhibited the picture ex
planning the downward course of the
bullet which entered Fairbanks body,
which he said was one Of 10 degrees.
This testimony was taken together
with that of Thaddeus Parks OF Graf
ton, to show that Mary Grout might
have shot at Fairbanks and then turn
ed the revolver upon herself, Testim-
ony showing that Mrs .Grout stood
above Fairbanks on the top stair of the
doorstep already had been introduced
This fact coupled with the downward
course of the bullet, together with the
left to right direction of the bullet
which passed through the girls heart
would appear to make it appear posi-
BILE that the shot which killed Mrs
Grout was self-inllicted.
William Smith of Grafton told of
knowing Fairbanks for "a years. He
said he had long observed traits of in
sanity in the man. Only year ago
he testified. Fairbanks ran to him, ex-
claiming: "A crowd of men are hunt
ing after me. Have you seen them?"
This was three miles below Grafton.
Smith said Fairbanks repeated the
question. He continued: Il remarked
afterward to my family that Fairbanks
was crazy"
All the Grafton witnesses testified
as to the bad reputation for veracity
of one of the states principal witness
es, Myra futile.

A Strono SAVINGS institution.

The strength of a savings bank de-
ponds not alone on the size of its de-
posits nor the number of its deposit
tors. 1t depends rather upon the kind
of securities In which the management
Invest their funds and the care with
which these securities are looked af-
ter. The Dandy Mirror evidently
thinks these conditions are well met
in the Hyde Park Savings Bank. 1t
says:
Beginning July list, the Lamoille
County Savings Bank and Trust Co.,
of Hyde Park, VT, will pay four per
cent interest on deposits remaining
in it's care for year or more. This
is a particularly strong savings insti-
tuition and during its existence has in
vested the money of its depositors
wholly in the state and has never lost
a dollar. Hon. Carroll s. Page, one of
the most able business men in Yer
mont, and the states honored ex-gov-
ernor, is president of the bank-the
kind of a president who knows at all
times how the affairs of the bank are
being conducted, and Is ever active In
promoting its interests and protecting
it's depositors against possible loss.

Make Life Worth Lining.

Make life more worth living. Quit
thinking those health and success-de-
stroying thoughts. Cultivate a conf
dent, serene disposition. Take little
recreation away from the work hours.
Life will then take on a different as
pect.
Why, you thought you could keep
your soul filled with hate and Jealousy
and envy and still be healthy and
happy. 1t can't be done. You
thought you could drift along somehow
and reach the coveted goal without
any such thing as well-directed effort
and success thoughts. Impossible.
But you can't worry and fret and
think evil thoughts and expect any
thing but a diseased mind and body.
The mind suffers by them and the
physical being follows soon. And it
all becomes a habit You are uncon-
scious of the great harm being done.
1t is a little thought at first that had
to creep in. but it dwells there and
soon the mind can not throw it off.
Like cancer, it eats out the happi-
ness of your existence.
Learn to forget. The things that
have been done are over now. II you
could help matters it would be differ
ent. AS long as you can't, you are
only running your health and happiness
by letting thoughts of it take posses
sion Of your mind.

increase Of land values along inter-
urban lines is marvellous.
There are not as many acres OF poor
land along any twenty-three miles in
Mississippi as there are to be found
in the territory between Richmond
and Petersburg, Va, yet an electric
road between these cities does a heavy
business and carries passengers the
round trip for sixty cents.
There is no territory in the United
States over which electric roads can
be as rapidly and cheaply built as that
lying around Hattiesburg, nor any in
which the possibilities of agricultural
development and settlement are as
great.
1t behooves the business men OF
Hattiesburg to study the results
which have followed building of cleo
trio railroads to radiate out of other
cities.
