A PLEASED SAVINGS BANK
DEP0SITOR.

There is no county in Vermont, in
deed hardly a town in the state, or a
state in the union, that does not make
deposits in the Hyde Park Savings Bank
The unprecedented growth of that in
stitution is the result of two things;
First, confidence; second, satisfaction
with its management.
Everybody is well treated at that bank
and everybody is satisfied.
Ask your neighbor who deposits there
and see if he does not vouch for the
truthfulness of this statement.

Bert II. Franklin, charged
with bribery i'm connection

ed guilty today TO the second
count i'm an indictment re-
turned by the county grand
jury which charged him with
cOrruptly influencing one

"Will you be a witness against

"If I am subpoenaed, / shall

Juarez surrendered to the rebel

bullets crossed the boundary.
The clash came suddenly. At

The revolutionists apparently were
awaiting achievements before be-
ginning the attack. The firing
began Unexpectedly, and almost
before the defenders of Juare2

hands of the rebels.
A party of Mexicans concealed
behind box cars last night fired
on a small body of Texas state mi

Twenty shots were exchanged,
one bullet passing through the
hat of a guardsman.
