THAT MAPLE SUGAR CASE.
" /. Spear Of Randolph Explains His
Company's Side of 1t.

V. |. Spear of Randolph, manager of
the Vermont Maple Sugar Makers mar
ket makes the following explanation of
the case which recently came up in
Washington, d.. c.:
"The facts in this case are, that Wood
ward & Lathrop OF Washington, ID. c.,
asked us for samples and prices on
maple syrup in the spring OF 1911. We
sent three samples representing our
best medium quality and poorest quail
ity of syrup. They selected our poor
est and cheapest goods and though we
advised taking better grade they in
sisted ON their selection and sent us
their own labels TO put on the goods
The syrup was sent as ordered and a
sample package w"s examined by the
bureau of chemistry and found to be of
poor quality and buddy.
Complaint was entered against this
company for labelling goods of this quail
ity for family trade. We admitted the
poor quality of the goods and settled
the case No claim was made by the bu-
reau of chemistry that any substance
had been mixed with the maple but that
the quality was too poor to justify la
belling for family use. Violation of the
pure food law is not confined to adulter-
ating goods but covers a broad field. We
had report OF one case on maple goods
where a fine was imposed on account of
the syrup weighing less than II pounds
to the gallon. We aim to comply with
every regulation made as soon as we
know what is required"

A ROYAL wRANGLE.
Over Formalities in Connection with En-
thronement of Prince Ernest August.

Berlin, Sept. pa word splitting
wrange over the formalities of the con-
nection with the enthronement OF Prince
Ernest August of Cumberland and Prin-
cess Victoria Louise, as the duke and
duchess of Brunswick, almost led to a
split in the imperial family and the
withdrawal of the young prince and
princess from Germany, according to in
formation from Hanoveran circles com
municated to to-day's Tageblatt.
The Prussian officials, it is said, in
sisted on more explicit renunciation by
the prince of his claims to the throne of
Hanover, whereupon the prince declared
he would take off his Prussian uniform
and retire to Austria with his bride, who
apparently was willing to obey the mar
riage injunctions and follow the fortunes
of her husband. Imperial Chancellor
Won Dethmann Hollweg thereupon yield
ed his point and now solution of the
difficulty is being sought.

HORSE MISSED CALCULATIONS.
Instead of Entering Driveway !
Plunged Into Iron Railing.

A bay horse from the Cutler Bros.
stable off Washington street Travelled
fast enough to win the money IN an ex-
citing runaway which started on Hill
street near Elmwood cemetery last even
ing. One of the hostlers from the stable
had the horse out for exercise and near
the Hill street intersection OF Wash
ington street the animal became fright
ened. When he began to lurch from
one side of the street to the other, the
driver began to think of getting new
grip on the seat rails. He was too late,
however, for an extra big jolt threw
him to the ground. With the light ear
riage trailing at his heels, the horse, +
thoroughly frightened, started dovN
Washington street at a furious gait.
Once the wheels of the vehicle bumped
against passing electric car, but the
steed never slackened.
Thinking evidently to make for its
quarters in the rear of the City hotel,
the horse essayed a sharp turn at the
driveway near the Baptist church. He
missed his calculations by several feet
and dashed into an iron railing which
skirts the lawn in front in heap on
the greensward just beyond. An
anxious crowd of bystanders gathered
Immediately and several steps were tax
en- toward extricating the animal from
harness, thills and rails. Several of the
same steps were retraced, but few Of
the bolder spirits presently freed the
horse from his tangle and at the request
of H. +. Cutler, who was one of the
first to reach the yard, he was led away
to the stable.
One wheel on the wagon was badly
shattered in the melee and two rails of
the iron fence that is used to advantage
by band concert spectators during the
summer months, were ripped from their
moorings and twisted out of shape. The
man who parted with the horse at the
corner of Hill and Washington streets,
escaped with a few bruises about his
left elbow, it was said.

Friends of Louis -Roleau, city weigher
and harness maker at the Calder &
Richardson store on Depot square, are
joshing him a good deal over the absence
of his likeness in the cinematograph
scenario of Barre aud the city officials,
a film which is being shown at a local.
picture house this week. So far as can
be learned, Mr.. Roleau is the only mem
ber of local officialdom who did not line
up in front of the lens that day two
weeks ago. Everybody from the mayor
down to the third assistant to the sec
ond constable was to be included in the
reel, but the city weigher was forgotten
in the final rush to perfect all the de-
tails of picture-taking day. Mr.. Roleau
is man of no uncertain stature and
his friends good nsturedly accuse him
of robbing the picture man of several
yards of film through his failure to ap-
pear.
