COINS NOT COUNTERFEIT.

1t develops that the Canadian
coins which are in circulation here
about and which were thought to
be counterfeit, are perfectly good
and will be accepted at the bank.
One of the coins was sent to bank
in Sherbrooke to determine its
value. The report came back that
it was all right, and the displacement
of the figure on the coin was an err
ror at the mint and that it weighed
up to the standard. 1t may prove
that these coins will be at premi-
UNI if there are a limited number.

of Burlington.

THE SOUL KISS.
At The Colonial on Wednesday
evening one of the largest audiences
of the year witnessed that light, airy
production called ''The Soul Kiss"
The large chorus, composed mostly
of girls, more or less pretty but all
very daintily costumed, sang the
pretty music to the general salts
faction of all. Mile. Novita, the
little dancer, was without doubt the
best ever seen here and the female
soloists were good to look at and
sang well. The only real acting in
the production was that of
Thomas S. Vann as Lucifer, whose
soliloquy from the top of the Singer
building in New Yory was finely
done. Glenn Ellis, as Suzette, was
a success, her face and her voice
being charming. Sam H. Lewis as
Sol Skevinsky was a clever comedi-
an.

Perxinga, who was committed from
Caledonia county, made himself SO
obnoxious to the prison officials that
he was again locked up and
Wednesday City Judge F. G. Swim

to his sanity and States Attorney
B. L. Stafford thinks that he will
eventually be sent to the. asylum at
Waterbury. While Deputy Superin-
tendent Daniel Bree was getting
ready to discharge the man the first
of the week, Perxinga became abus-
i've and threatened to attack the
official. Perxinga pleaded guilty to
the charge of breach of the peace.

An application will be made be-

county court by Mildred Brewster
through her counsel Lord & Garlic
ton that she be removed from the in
sane asylum at Waterbury to the
Brattleboro Retreat. She believes
that she will be more contented at
Brattleboro. Under a law recently
passed by the legislature the court
of chancery is given authority to
make such an order when the court
is satisfied that it will be for the
benefit of the person so confined.
The law is a general one but was in
troduced to cover Miss Brewster's
case, since there was no authority
for the court to make such an order
previously.
