MAHAN GETS LIFE SENTENCE.
Bennington County Murderer Heard
Verdict with No Show Of Emotion.

The jury in the case Of Alfred Ma
han. charged with the murder Of his
4.year old niece. Ethel Mahan, brought
in a verdict of guilty in the second
degree at Bennington Saturday morn
ing. He was sentenced Tuesday to life
Imprisonment by Judge Seneca Hasel'
ton. No appeal will be taken by Ma
han IS counsel.
Five ballots were necessary before a
verdict was reached. The first result
cd in IL for conviction and one for ac.
quittal; the second, four for murder
in the first degree, six for murder. IN
the second degree and two for man
slaughter; third, eight for murder in
the second degree and four for the
first degree; fourth, II for murder IN
the second degree and one for first
degree.
No decision had been reached when
the Jury assembled for breakfast Sat
urday morning but at $50 clock the
courthouse bell rang and people began
fiocking from every direction into the
courthouse. In five minutes every seat
on the floor was taken and the gallery
was practically filled with women.
The Jurors entered the room, headed
by Foreman A. B. Sheldon of Rupert.
They took their places and were or.
dered by Clerk Stakeholder to arise.
The respondent was told to stand up
and look upon the jury. To the ques'
ton, "Have you decided upon yer.
dictsn the foreman replied in the af.
firmative. and announced the result.
When ordered by the court to arise
and face the jury Mahan's actions
were most mechanical. After the YER
diet was announced he stood calmly in
front of his chair, facing the jury,
and when the jurors resumed their
seats he sat down without the slight
est change of countenance. 1t was ap-
parent that he did not grasp the situa-
tion and had no idea of the meaning
of the verdict. Deputy Sheriff Nash
left his seat, and, going to the young
man. told him what his sentence would
be. Then the first look of realization
came over Mahan s face, and he turn
ed pale and dropped his head in his
hands.
The testimony according to the
court reporter, G. S. Chase, will make
100000 words, about the same number
as the Fairbanks trial at the last ses-
sion of Windham county court.

A Daring Statement.
(Rutland News

The Brattleboro Woman's club has
posted notices about the village call
ing attention to the anti-spitting laws
of the state. When a man wants TO
spit in Brattleboro now he looks eau
tiously around to see if there any
women in sight. Some of the con-
firmed tobacco eaters are calling for
cuspidors on the streets. The Mont
pelier Argus pokes its nose into mat.
ter that is none of its business and
declares that it is dead agin splitting,
but thinks it would have been just as
well if the matter had been taken up
by the village officials. Evidently
there is no woman S club in Montpelier.
If there was, the Argus wouldn't dare
TO make such remark.

LEAD BY 81 POINTS.
Crosby and His Team Are Already
Thinking About Something to Eat.

With only TWO games left to play
in the Vermont Wheel club pool and
billiard tournament Capt. crosby s
team leads by 81 points, and he and
his followers are already considering
what kind of menu they will discuss
at the expense of the Moynihanians.
Great interest centers in the remaining
contests-L. +. Holden against Rob.
ert Mitchell and Frank Flagg against
Louis Allen. Mr. Holden, who has
pool table in his home, is said by Capt
Crosby to be out of town but some of
the opposing team suspect that he IS
remaining indoors and practising Sc
cretly. Messrs. Flagg and Allen are
both travelling statesmen but they are
kept in touch with the progress of the
tournament by daily wires and are put.
ting in all their spare time on hotel
pool tables.
The games of the past week have
attracted crowds to the club rooms
nightly and have furnished more than
little excitement. There were two
star events last Friday evening when
w. j. Pentand stung Judge Schwenk
by a margin of one and w. ID. Smith
assimilated' George Wellman with
eight points to spare. Word was re-
ceived early Tuesday morning that e.
l.. Dunham, who began his game with
J. E. Rogers the previous evening, had
won IA points for Moynihan and the
result was hailed with cheers. Old-time
minstrelsy triumphed over black-face
art of later days when J. G. Burpee
defeated D. Frank Shea by two points
Tuesday afternoon. There were "many
smiling faces" among the Moynlhan-
ians when this was announced. Later
in the day Capt. Crosby, nervous over
the welfare of his team, lost to q. W..
Dunham. Moran, though himself an
undertaken, was neatly laid out by M.
Austin, jr., while Aldrich fell before
the onslaught of State g Attorney Ba-
con, fresh from legal triumphs at Mont
pelier. These are few of the Moynl-
han victories, but that there have been
Crosby triumphs to Offset them will be
seen in the following scores in which
the names of the Crosby team appear
first:

half notch of the necessary total to

This is just one fact of the many

prove the assertion that Brattleboro is
just starting out on a period of un'
paralleled prosperity and boom.

TAINTED MONEY.

During the campaign of 1904 the
Standard Oil company contributed
100000 to Mr.. Roosevelt's cam
paign fund and the President ordered
MIR. Cortelyou to return the money.
During this campaign Edward H.
Hartman visited the White House
by invitation and after a conference
with Mr.. Roosevelt raised 100000.
which, he claims, turned 10000
votes in this state.
In virtuously spurning the Stand
ard Oil money Mr.. Roosevelt must
have assumed that it's acceptance
would establish what Platt calls "the
moral obligation" But if Standard
Oil money implied such an obligation
how about Hartmann money? Was
his $26O,O00 less tainted than the
Standard 100000? Or did Mr.
Roosevelt assume that it would be
easier to bunco Hartman than to
bunco the Standard Oil crowd?
Mr. Roosevelt may have convinced
himself that he has said everything
about the 1904 contributions that he
needs to say, but there is much that
he has left unexplained. Does he
know that the Standard Oil contri-
button was returned as he directed +?
Officials of the company are said to
be circulating the report that this
money was never sent back If so,
what became of it?
If the committee kept the money
Mr. Cortelyou must have disobeyed
the Presidents orders. But there
mas been no reputation of Mr.. Cor
telyou He is still Mr.. Roosevelt S
I Secretary of the Treasury and one of
Mr.. Roosevelt's confidential advisers
in the management of the Taft cam
paign.-St Louis Republic
