Burlington, Aug. 30.-The Rutland
railroad company is the defendant in a
suit for $4,000 filed in the supreme
court in New York Wednesday by Miss
Carol Brady Mason for damages caused
by her being forcibly removed from a

way, it is charged that Miss Mason
bought a ticket from Montreal to New
York on Aug. 27, paying sl.60 extra for
a berth. At o'clock that night she
went to her berth, she says, and later
negro porter and two train hands
awakened her, ordered her to dress, and
while she was only partly clothed, re-
moved her by force to car in which
there were no sleeping accommodations.
As result, she says, she arrived in
New York in a state of collapse, had to
be assisted from the train and placed
under the care of physician.

cured. In fact a majority Of the mem

not be secured and the hens will con
tinue to travel toward Montpelier around
show time. The date originally set
for the show remains unchanged, as do

PONY CONTEST ENDS in
LITTLE OVER ONE MONTH.

Are yon 0n?---If Not it is High Time
You We're Doing Something The
Final Spart Is On=--FiFe are Ruh-
1liag Neck and Neck=--Are You Go
ing to Forge Ahead?
Another two weeks, period of the
big Dunlap Pony Contest is on
which will carry it to the night of
Sept. 1st, the last month of contest.
For this two weeks period a ten per
cent bonus will be allowed.
One little girl contestant polled
double the votes of any other con-
testant the past two weeks and this
is sufficient for the confident" ones
to rub their eyes>and see where they
are at" as the expression goes. The
pony and rig is not going to be won
without a great amount OF effort,
please bear this in mind and it is
up to you, contestant, to produce the
goods as the time is getting short,
very short indeed, for you to. ac-
complish your desire.
Every vote is counted and re-
counted accurately and compared.
There is no chance for one to get
votes dishonesty without being de-
tected as the Dunlap Pony Contest
has the numbers of every ticket
given out here and those ordered by
the firms since and the manager here
has duplicate. Those votes will
bebcompared and checked up by the
sales of the various firms who have
a record and if there be any excess
or otherwise tickets not gotten leg
ally they will be thrown out in the
final count. No tickets are good
but the Dunlap Pony tickets, the
rules call for that and the rules will
be adhered to- In other words get
ting down to the point-there is alb
solutely no chance for any one to
cheat without being finally detect
ed.
If your people owe bill or want
anything carried by firms in contest
now is the time to avail yourself of
the opportunity to get these matters
settled so as to get the votes.
Remember a vote is given for
everycentand that 10peEeent bonus
is allowed for the next two weeks
period, ending Sep. 1st. The Review
is allowed five votes for every
cent, or 500 on every dollar subscrip-
ton and the same as all others on
printing.
AS before stated the pony and
rig will be here soon and will be
soon on the streets and we know
that many of the contestants will
then wish they had done more
work, so don't wait until then, take
the hint now and get busy.
