CASE NEARING END.
Jury Likely to Get the Boyd Case
Sometime Tomorrow.

Newfane, May % The jury in Wind
ham ounty court is likely to get the
case Of Frank J Boyd, charged with the
murder of John Potter. tomorrow
evening The defense was nearly
through when the court adjourned Sat
urday till this afternoon.
Charles s Chase, senior counsel for
the respondent, renewed his motion for
the jury to visit the Boyd sugarhopse
and premises and offered to pay all ex.
penses of transportation but the motion
was denied by the court. The Boyd
farm is situated on the jacksonville road
in the town of Wilmington and is about
three and one-half miles from vii.
mington village, Immediately upon
the motion of Attorney Chase being
denied, the defense rested and the state
began its rebuttal by calling Miss G.
Sadie Smith of Rutland official court re-
porter, in an attempt to impeaeh the
testimony of Ada Boyd and Clara
Grimes, as given before the grand jury
it was rather involved.
The defense objected to Miss Smiths
testimony being allowed ON the ground
that all of the testimony Of Ada Boyd
and Clara Grimes should be read 10 the
the jury rather than such parts as the
state might wish to produce by Miss
Smiths testimony The respondents at
torneys insisted that all Of the testi.
mony of these two witnesses be read
and the jury left TO Judge if particular
answers had been modified, qualified or
reAraced and Mr. Chase further in
sssted that the reading of part of the
Testimony was showing question Of fact
by the witness which should be left
for the jury to determine. Judge
Waterman admitted the testimony of
the court reporter. who read from her
notes. At that point the state asked for
4 recess as the rest of the prosecutions
witnesses are in Wilmington and could |
not be reached before Monday.
Frank J Boyd the accused man. sat |
stolidly through the session Saturday /
and manifested no interest in the pro. |
,eedings. Though the respondent has for /
many years borne an unsavorv reputa- 4
ion, public sentiment here seems to be /
with him when the career of Potter

vicinity being eonfscated TO make the
blaze bigger When sparks flew from
the bonfire to adjoining buildings, Chief
Niles and the fremen turned out and

students objected, although others saw
the force of the fire chiefs remarks and
tried to stop their fellows. The former
began to hack the hose, and when Chief
Niles started TO arrest one of the fell

the ground Two lengths OF hose worth
$50 were ruined and one other length
was stolen. Police and deputy sheriffs,
who tried to stop the students, were
likewise treated.

1t is far better to raise this money
to put into sewers, than to mortgage
for so much. It will entail much less
hardship. Suppose you borrow
million at 4 per cent; money doubles
at this rate in twenty years, SO you
pay the amount of the debt in inter-
est and still have the million to pay.
No successful business man will pay
interest. The greatest known case
of sewerage retaining is this. The
Emperor of Germany has a territory
about the size of New England. He
keeps six hundred thousand men in
idleness as a night soil factory. This
material he reclaims and the mothers
and sisters of these men spade it into
the soil with the result that 75 per

are produced per acre than were ever
known to be grown in the united
States. The sugar and potatoes he
exports to the United States.
