ADDISON COUNTY COURT
Continued from Page y


hours delay a jury was empaneled and
then another recess was taken until
after the arrival of the 3:15 train from
the south. That train came along in
good time and brought Mr.. Moloney
with it, and the trial was speedily got
under way.
Mr.. Hunt was the first witness in his
own behalf and was on the stand the
remainder of Tuesday afternoon. In
this case Plaintiff Hunt sued for sub
stantial damages for injuries received
in an alleged assault made upon him by
Defendant Lee at the latter's place of
business in East Middlebury on the 21st
day of last August. Hunt claimed in
the witness chair that on the day in
question he went into the store of
Douglas & Lee to find out from Lee
about the time for delivery of a pig
which Lee had bargained with him for
earlier in the month, whereupon they
| got into a dispute over the price, Lee
claiming he was to have the animal for
nine cents pound and Hunt insisting
that he was to receive the "going
price," To end up with Lee became
angry, grabbed Hunt by the coat collar
with both hands, hustled him out of the
store, threw him into his buggy and
then fell upon him in such a way that
when Hunt emerged from the wreck il
was with badly injured back, chest
and shoulders. and broken right arm.
Since that date, Hunt said, he had not
been able to do a days work at his
trade; but he admitted on Mr.. Molo.
ney's cross examination that his arms
were so badly bungled up with rheuma.
tism that he had been able to do only
nine days work in the whole season
prior to August 81. The court worked
overtime to get in Hunts testimony
but it had not been completed when a
recess was taken for the night.
The taking of testimony in this case
took up the entire time of the court or
Wednesday aud most of Thursday. Al
a O'Clock Wednesday afternoon the
plaintiff rested his case and the intro.
duction of evideuce for the defendant
was begun, with Defendant Lee on the
! stand as the first witness in his owr
}, behalf. The claim of the defense was
self defense and that the defendant
did mt use any more force than was
necessary in putting the plaintiff out OF
the store and that the defendant was
not responsible for the injury to the
plaintiffs arm.
At 2:30 O'Clock Thursday the de.
PENDANTS case was rested and a
short time was taken up in putting
in rebuttal evidence for the plaintiff
The arguments were then begun, with
Judge Button leading for the plaintiff
and Mr.. LaFleur following for the de.
PENDANT. The case was not completed
yesterday.
The first criminal matter of the tern
was taken up Thursday afternoon
when the case of State VS. Arthur Prince
of Bristol was called. The respondent
was arraigned on an information charg
ing him with illegal furnishing of intoxi
eating liquor. He pleaded not guilty
and was put under bail of $3.50 until late
in the term, and the bail was furnished

The trust companies of this State
seem to be quite as popular depositaries
for the peoples savings as are the
savings banks. The guarantee fund
which the paid-in-capital and accumu-
lated surplus of a trust company pro-
vides is the important feature of this
class of banks. The Burlington Trust
company, whose advertisement appears
elsewhere in our columns is just closing
the thirtieth year in its career as a
successful financial institution. The
showing it makes speaks in loud terms
for the activity and conservatism of its
management and assures absolute
safety to its depositors. adv.

What Horse Power Means.

Very few people realize just what a
horse power, as expressed in engineer
ing terms, really means.
When it is stated that the worlds
largest Curtis steam turbine. which
drives an electric generator in the Wa.
terside station, New York, develops
10000 horse power the meaning Is
vague and incomprehensible Imagine
this term reduced to man power and
almost every one can grasp its full
meaning. If it takes twelve men to
equal one horse power then this mann
moth turbine engine develops 10 times
$4,000, or the working energy of $780,
900 men. If these men worked in
eight-hour shifts each day it would
require the services of 1850, 600 men
every twenty-four hours to produce
the working energy of this turbine

STRANGE COUNTRY IS OMAN
Something About the Sutanate at the
Southeast End of the Ara
bian Peninsula.

One of the least known countries Of
the Arabiap peninsula is the sultanate
of Oman, which occupies the south
eastern e. ltremity. The country is
largely Mountainous. The area has
not been exactly determined, as the
western, or desert, border has never
been fixed The population, which
ranges from 100000 to 100000 is dis
tributed mostly along the seacoast
and few interior valleys that can
be irrigated. There are no rivers, and
the anaual rainfall is not more than
five inches. Wells are the only source
of water, The Tropic of Cancer
crosses the sultanate, and while the
winters are pleasant the summers are
long and extremely hot. Arabic is
the language generally spoken,
though in the ports many persons
speak PerHian, Baluchi and Hindu
stani, and every native merchant can
conduct his business correspondence
in either English or French. The
sultan or any of his wallis, or COVER
nors, decides case which may be

ence to any other case or to any law,
except local customs and such pre-
cepts of the Koran as may be deemed
applicable. Commercial law is I'M
known. Wages, formerly extremely
low, have been increasing steadily,
condition said to be due not to any
increase in the demand for labor, but
to deficiency in the supply caused
by the dying out of the sedee, or ne
gro, population since the importation
of slave cargoes ceased. The prevail
ing daily wages, United States ourren-
cy. in cents, are: Carpenters, as;
house servants, II; cooks, 80; masons.
81: coolies, "a; messengers, 20, and
women date packers, 81. Goats,
sheep and burros, of poor and stunted
types, owing to scanty forage, are
raised; but the dromedaries which
the tribes of the western border grow
are said to be the best breed in the
world. Horses are few, there being
probably less than 500 in the whole
country.

1t Is easy enough after war has
been fought to prove the uselessness
OF it. 1t has often been shown how
the difference between the north and
the south might have been adjusted
with such terrible waste of life and
treasure. Grant that within the de-
vices of political expediency these
preventions We're possible, the fact
still remains that the wars were
fought, that great moral faults were
purged, and the God of battles en-
forced his ancient law of eye for eye

Children are always bearing the
faults of their fathers, and the men
and women of go to '65 poured out
of their own veins and out of their
own souls an equal portion of blood

from the veins of an enslaved race.
No moral debts long remain unpaid.
What If the purging was drastic
and the throes suffered by the war
ring elements brought 1t staggering
to its knees, was not the cleansing
complete? The nation stands today
the stronger and the sweeter for that
conflict. For it was not merely the
quarrelsome distemper of war that af-
f1icted the people, but a score of dis.
eases; not human slavery alone, but
factional jealousy, greed, selfishness,
state misgovernment and federal
abuses. How vastly these have been
eliminated can be appreciated only
by a study of the injustices of that
ante-bellum period The nation in
that memorable struggle was expected
by cynical observers in Europe to
crumble and fall. But these observers
failed utterly to grasp the significance
of the struggle that was being fought
for national purity and national unity.
Instead of perceiving a giant rending
himself, as they thought. they were
watching giant wrestling with the
evil that was within him,
AS the day Of that conflict ever re.

dent to the ear, its better significance
makes itself felt The broad page of

and other vegetables are raised only
with care and in favorable seasons.
Farms Now Cultivated.
AS one enters the valleys of south
ern Alaska the agricultural possibilities
improve. Potatoes and other vegetables
have done well in the past, but as
rule grains fail to ripen and are valu-
able only for feeding stock Farther
north, in what is known as Copper
valley, conditions are more favorable
for vegetables, and quite a number Of
good gardens and small farms are now
cultivated. The growing season here
tofore has stretched over six months
or more in the islands and the inlets
OF southeastern Alaska. 1t decreases
to five months at Skagway. and is
about four in the interior
While the Seward peninsula and the
arctic coast have no agricultural pos
sfbilities, yet considerable parts of the
Yukon basin are suitable for garden
ing to degree astonishing to the I'M
Informed. The best-known instance of
successful farming Is that at the Holy
Cross mission, on the Yukon, 62 de-
grees north There cattle have been
raised for II years and more, and the
products of the land under cultivation
excite establishment in all visitors. All
through the valley of the Yukon pota-
toes and vegetables mature when
proper ground is chosen and skilled
attention given.
At Fort Gibbon, at the junction of
the Yukon and the Tanana rivers, and
at Fort Cgbert, near the arctic circle,
the military garrisons have raised
large quantities of vegetables, pota-
toes being especially successful. Even
at Coldfoot, within the arctic circle, at
68 degrees north, potatoes, cabbage,
peas, tarnips, rhubarb and berries are
grown of large size and good flavor.
Truck farming and hay farming are
fiourishing industries in the lower Ia
mana valley where it is said that more
than 10000 acres of land have been
homesteaded. While grain will ripen
only under favorable conditions, pota-
toes, with other vegetables, do very
well, and the native and selected for
eign grasses are productive of good
crops.
That the productivity of Alaskan
agriculture Is important. both in guam
tity and in value, is clearly indicated
by the dimipution of the shipment of
potatoes from the United States to
Alaska. which dropped in two years
from 211,215 bushels to 167, 033 bush
els In the same length of time the
value of all vegetable shipments fell
from $696.928 TO s483,S55, a decrease
of more than 80 per cent
A warmer climate in Alaska would.
! no doubt, cause these figures to dimin-
ish rapidly and soon disappear. In
fact, it is not an extravagant state
ment. according to men who have in
yestigated the subject. to say that the
switching of the Japan current may
mean that Alaska will forge ahead in
its agricultural products until its ex-
ports will be the very things which in
the past were imported.
