Weddinq Fee Counterfeit.

A well-dressed stranger entered the office of Justice William B. Williams, Montclair, N. J., and after shaking hands astonished the justice by say ing: "I'm here to redeem that coun- terfeit $10 bill I passed on you. Two years ago I called on you with my girl and two witnesses and you mar ried us. I handed you S10 bill. I had counterfeit in my pocketbook that I'd carried for several years. I never missed it until yesterday. Then I remembered that I'd accidentally handed you the bill" The caller pro- duced a good s10 bill, but the justice refused to take it.

The first real tilt Of the session de-
velOped on Thursday when Mr.. Hunt
of New Haven, who by the way looks
like a retired granger, moved that a
certain rule of the house be stricken
off. Mr.. Fletcher of Cavendish had
made like motion and withdrawn it
when Mr.. Hunt arose in his seat and
renewed the motion and insisted up
on a vote. The rule in question is
based upon a section of the laws of
1903 and is to the effect that the
house shall not act on any matter
changing town lines, village charters,
county sites, etc, unless notice by
publication has been given for some
weeks before the legislature convenes.
| Mr.. Amey Of Island Pond, Mr.. Web.
ster Of Swanton, and Mr.. Wright OF
/ Westminster spoke in favor OF the
rule being retained, not because the
statute was of any force, but because
it was not wise to adopt a rule one
day and abrOgate it the next. Mr..
Hunt spoke of the unconstitutiOnality
OF the statute ana the rule SnOWeu GHt

A Safe Savings Bank.

There is every reason to believe that
the savings banks Of Vermont are all
safe, sound and strong. That the pub
lie so believe is evidenced by the re-
cent report Of the Inspector of Banks
showing almost unprecedented gains
in deposits during the past year. If
the confidence in the safety Of Yer
mont savings banks however, is to be
measured by the growth Of deposits.
then unduestionably the Hyde Park
savings bank holds the first place, for
its percentage of increase in deposits
during the three fiscal years ending
July i, 1910, barring perhaps some re-
Gently established banks upon which
of course a percentage basis Of in
crease could not be computed is more
than that Of any other bank in the
state.
Stated in terms that can be under
stood by all, the deposits in the Hyde
Park savings bank during the last
three years have exceeded the with
drawals by more than $1,000 for each
business day during the entire three
years. We know of no parallel any
where, except in some of the large
city banks.
The Hyde Park bank pays 4 per cent
interest, compounded seml-annually
and deposits made before November Is
will draw interest from October /.
1t pays the taxes on all deposits up
to So, 900 and the Lamollle County
National Bank Of Hyde Park, under
the same management, will accept,
upon the same terms, any sum in eX-
cess OF this two thousand dollars.
| AS evidencing the safety Of making
deposits by mail, it may be stated
! that in more than twenty-one years OF
its existence, not dollar of remittan,
/ ces to the Hyde Park savings bank by
mail has ever been lost. 1t is entirely
safe to make deposits either by person
al check, bank draft, postal money or
der, express order or cash in registered
letter. This bank respectfully solicit
your deposits.

Holland Case Cited as Example.

The attention of the board of select
men is called to the repairs at Horse
Heaven hill. There is a stretch Of
roadbed at point where the embank-
ment is steepest where no lights are in
position to guide those who have
occasion to use the road. On Sunday
evening, a party nearly toppled over
the bank in the dusk, and had it been
a little later, when darkness would
shut the scene in. a different story
might have been told. If lanterns
are necessary there, and it seems as
if they are, put them there and dis
continue the penny-wise poundfool-

against the town of Holland for in
