pleaded guilty and was given the
same sentence and conditions with
the probation officer.
In the case of State vs. George
Knight for burglary, the crime being
committed while the respondent was
in an intoxicated condition and upon
the store of Arthur Smith, last July,
the respondent pleaded guilty. The
States Attorney on behalf of the
State and Harland B. Howe on behalf
of the respondent, asked for special
mitigation of sentence which usually
attends the plea of guilty in crimes of
this kind After very careful DELHI
Grafton the Court decided upon the
recommendation of the probation Of
ficer who had Investigated the case
and the recommendation of the coun-
sci on both sides that the respondent
should be sentenced to not less than
three and one-half nor more than
four years at hard labor in the States
Prison at Windsor and that the exc
cution of sentence be stayed and the
respondent be placed in the hands Of
the probation officer.

ACCEPTED UNANIMOUSLY.
Business Men Name Thursday a.
"Merchants Day" in Montpelier.

At we'll attended meeting of the
merchants committee of the Board
of Trade, which was held in the lat.
ter's rooms last evening, the PROPOSE
ton to have a Merchants Day" in
this city one day of every week was
discussed in all its details and in
the end it was unanimously voted to
accept it. This is the proposition
made by the Morning Journal some
time ago, the idea being to increase
the volume OF business done in this
city by calling the attention of the
people of the surrounding towns to
the many attractive lines offered by
the local merchants, at advantageous
prices. by giving greater publicity to
their stock in trade. 1t was voted to
set aside Thursday as Merchants
Day and to have the Journals extra
distribution of several thousand
copies which will be circulated in
all of the surrounding towns, come
on Tuesday of each week. The first
Merchants Day" will come next
week Thursday.
The Journals proposition has al
ready been signed by sixty merchants
of Montpelier. At the enthusiastic
meeting held last night, all of the
merchants were of the opinion that
the suburban trade could be greatly
increased, thereby benefiting the
whole community. The merchants
have already united and are deter
mined to pull together for the bet
terment of Montpelier's commercial
interests which. in the last analysis
will eventually prove beneficial to all
the people of the city
