We believe that 1t viii meet with
failure. We do not believe that the
men who voted for the bill the other
day can be turned In that way The
majority was so strong and so posi-
tive that there would seem to be no
likelihood OF its being reversed on
the 9Th of January.
House bill 1888 did not originate
with the Anti-saloon league. the
league simply recognizes in 1t good
temperance cub and the good offices
OF the league are always exerted in
the interest Of any such measures.
We therefore heartily cooperate as
we can in the interest of it, With
this bill a law and the people also
given a referendum, we believe that
Vermont will rid herself of the open
saloon.
We sincerely hope that you will be
again ready to raise your voice in
support of the Hunt bill May we
| suggest that you endeayor to secure
at least one other man who did not
speak the other day to SPEAK in IA
vor of the bill?
We think the prospect is exc, lent
that those who have been claiming
chat the present Vermont Legislature
Icould not be expected to do much for
temperance are going to be dsap
lpolnted. If they pass the Hunt bill
land provide for referendum they will
have done more for temperance than
any other Legislature during the last
half century. We sincerely hope
they will distinguish themselves in
that manner.
With compliments of the season We
are,
Very truly yours

Judge Pfau Finds Allegations Against
Horace Yost to Be True; Mother
Gets Children.

Judge Pau has filed an order
granting divorce to Mrs. Pearl
Yost from her husband, Horace f..
Yost, and granting her the custody
OF the two minor children, John AL.
bert, aged nineteen, and Gladys Lu-
cile, aged fourteen years. 1t is
found as matters of fact that the
plaintiff is thirty-four years old and
the defendant forty-two, and that
they were married at Sulphur
Springs, Ind, July 10, 1890; that the
husband has practiced a course of
cruel and inhuman treatment toward
the wife, and for the past ten years
has failed to support her, whereby
she was forced to support herself
and two children. These things
have affected her health adversely.

Driver Became Excited and Acct
dent Follows; He Is Placed
Under Arrest.

Springfield, Mimi, May S.-A dis.
astrous automobile accident occurred
here last night in which a score of
men were injured.
The Orpheus band marching on
the road to the home of Hays Cady,
on the outskirts of town, to furnish
the music for dance were over
taken by car driven by John Lang,
who literally plowed his way through
the ranks of the musicians, tossing
them right and left.
For some reason the chauffeur
failed to see the band and the mem
bers, who were playing a march,
did not hear the approach of the car.
driver, he was nearly upon them be.
fore he noticed them and in his ey-
citement in endeayOring to apply
the brake he touched the high speed
lever with most disastrous results.
Henry Neuman, the leader of the
band, suffered compound fracture
of his legs. Elmo Swanbeck received
a broken collar bone and II. Schmid
was internally injured. Knuo Lehne
sustained a fracture of the skull,
Joseph Schumacher an injury to his
neck, and nearly every member was
more or less seriously injured.
The accident caused much excite
ment and threats of violence. Lang
has been arrested, charged with
criminal negligence, and has secured
his release on bond of $4,000.
Senator Frank Clague, who has
been engaged by John Lang to look
after his interests, was in Mankato
last evening. He states that the ac-
cident has been somewhat exag-
gerated. He says that only three or
four OF the band members were in
jured. Mr.. Smell admits that he ran
into them, but says that he turned
out for a wagon, and the dust arts.
ing from the latter blinded him I'M
til he got close to the band Then
he tried to stop the car, but got
his foot upon the speed accelerator
instead of the brake, with the re-
suit that the car shot forward in
stead of stopping.

the state for United States senator
under the benign working OF the
Keefe measure.
1t will be one or the other, they
declare. Hammond, it is understood,
favors life at Washington, and would
rather step from the lower house
into the senate than go there by the
governorship route.
Anyway, the friends of Hammond
are going to see that he is featured
at the June consultation.

From THURSDAYS Daily.
The city has shut Off the water
service from the residences of TWEEN
ty or more water takers who have
not paid their water rent. Some OF
these were shut off yesterday and
some today, and it is stated that this
practice is to be enforced from now
on, impartially Some of the water
rents were six months overdue, and
notices had been sent to the resi-
dents and also published in the pa
pers, but no attention was paid to
them.
Come Across With Money.
Since the water has been shut off,
the consumers have been falling over
themselves to pay their bills. The
city charges So extra for turning on
the water again, and is charging
where the cutoff valve has to be dug
up. Some of the valves have been
found filled with stones or dirt and
cannot be turned, and these have to
be dug up at the expense of the
property owners, who are supposed
to keep the valves in working order.
Some Were Indignant.
Several OF the residents who were
deprived of water yesterday after
noon were quite indignant, and one
lady prominent socially and in the
club work of the city was especially
