buck into the city to-day and sold the
carcass to the Tassie market Mr.. Bur-
roughs shot the buck near his home in
West Corinth this morning within few
rods of the spot where one of his towns
men secured big deer yesterday.
The annual fair of the Woman's as
sociation of the Congregational church
came to an end last evening with an
entertainment and sale of articles.
There was a good attendance and the
sale cleaned out nearly all the goods
remaining from the previous evening.
The entertainment was very much en-
Joyed. The solo work of Fred Inplis
and the mandolin solo by Harry Fisher
elected much appreciation, and Miss Nc
Guidwin, soprano soloist, and Miss AL
bertson, reader, of Montpelier seminary.
gave particularly pleasing numbers; and
not the least entertaining feature of the
program was part taken by the camp
fire girls and which was called Giving
pictures" entitled, "a Bachelors Rev
cry" Mrs. w. II. Gale was chairman
of the entertainment committee last
evening. The ladies of the association
felt very much pleased at the outcome

into court yesterday afternoon and re-
iterated his original plea of not guilty.
Grand Juror A. G. Fay placed two wit
nesses on the stand and in the end the
respondent was adjudged guilty and
committed to the care of Probation Off.
Ger Charles A. Smith. Morren will serve
a sentence of six months in the state
hospital at Waterbury. Officers Ed J..
Mcleod and Harry Gamble both testi-
fed to arresting Morren at his home on
Hill street Nov. 2. In their best iudg-
ment, they agreed, Morren was drunk
at the time. They told of Morren's evil
dent desire to be rid of the officers and
to make good his escape. Morren was
allowed to cross-examine before the
state rested its case, but his questions
were immaterial for the most part The
man was surrendered yesterday by his
bondsman. after he had failed to put in
an appearance when the case was first
called for hearing.

AGGRIEVED PATRONS
ORDERED PHONES OUT
When Passumpsic Company Raised the
Rates at Two Times During the
Last Seven Years.

The Vermont public service commits
sion finished the hearing on the Pas
sumpsic Telephone Co. on the proposed
rate reduction yesterday afternoon. Gen
eral Auditor Longley was on the stand
at the hearing in Montpelier when At
torney Cook, representing the state of
Vermont, inquired into a large number
OF items on the company's books.
1t appeared that the Passumpsic COM
pany had made raises in rates during
the last seven years, and that against
both of these raises several hundred sub
scribers had protested by ordering their
telephones out. 1t also appeared that
the New England company had loaned
the Passumpsic company for the purpose
of building new plant the sum of $780,
1884
Attorney Cook was also inclined to
criticise an item of supplies on hand
amounting to $30,2lS.3S, which repre-
sented the value of telephones and
switchboards removed and in storage,
but Mr.. Longley said it was probabl
these supplies would be used elsewhere
in the territory and such portions as
were not needed for future use would be
sold as soon as fair selling price could
be obtained.
The directorate of the Passumpsic com
pany consists of five officials of the New
England company and four residents OF
its territory, namely. u. M. Taft, G. II.
Prouty, NJ. M. Taplin and George c.
Cary.
Mr.. Cook inquired as to the prices
for poles purchased locally and was Civ
en- various quotations ranging from $3.50
for 25-foot poles to 1886 for 35-foot
poles.
The figures for some recent under
ground construction in st. Johnsbury
were given as S7,626.Sl, the total cost of
conduit and cable.
The total number of stations of the
Passumpsic company was higher in 1912
than in the present year. At the end OF
1912 the number of stations was 5.l44.
On June 80, 1913, the total number of
stations was 4,92s. The falling off was
apparently result of the increase in
rates.
The reports to the commission are
made up for the year ending June 80,
and a statement of assets, revenue and
expenses for the full calendar year, 1911, |
was asked for and submitted as follows
for the Passumpsic company:

TOLD ABOUT SHOOTING.
Various Witnesses on Stand in North
field Case.

During the progress of the case of
State VS.. Louis Gomez, charged with
assault with intent to kill Matthew Cor
don, Judge Butler announced in Wash
ington county court that there would be
no further jury cases this term and the
members of the jury not serving on the
panel in this case would be excused,
subject to recall If cases should arise.
Rapid progress is being made in the Co
mez case, the state. having nearly con-
cluded at the adjournment of court last
night.
After Gordon had told his story of
the shooting in Northfeld one night last
summer. declaring that he and his girl
companion were accosted by two men as
they were sitting under an apple tree
and later shot by one of the men as
he grappled, the young woman, Miss
Della Gonyo, took the stand. Her story
was largely corroborative of Gordons.
She said she and Gordon were sitting
under the tree when the two men came
along. passed and then came back and
stood in front of them. She said they
wouldn't go away when asked to and
then the trouble began, during which
she got over barb-wire fence and ran
across the field to East street, where
she met James II. Lafiiey, who walked
home with her.
During that time Gordon was having
tussle, as he had previously testified.
He said that when the men came back
he said: "What in - do you fell
lers want?' He said he made pass
at Gomez and then hit him under the
jaw, after which they clinched, Gordon
putting his right arm around Gomez
neck and throwing him down. At that
time a shot was fired and he (GoTdonl
ran. second shot was fired and Cor
don felt the bullet strike his right hip.
He fell. but got up and continued TO
run. He says third shot was fired.
Gordon said he didn't see the revolver
in Gomez hand but saw the flash near
his head, which indicated to him that
Gomez held the weapon. On cross-exam-
ination he said the night was dark and
that one would have to be rather close
in order to recognize another. He also
said he had had no previous trouble with
Gomez. The other fellow, he said, did
not engage in the scrap.
Mortified police and citizens testified
next. Chief J. NJ. Donohue said he went
to the place and found Gordon's hat.
The next morning he found pieces of
blue and white cloth on the lower strand
of the barb wire fence and in the pas
ture a lady's handkerchief in which was
4 dollar bill. He gave the bill to Cor
don. Special Policeman w. o. Pride

Them said there were three fired. John
LaForest told of going to Heaton hos
1ital with Gomez.
The state rested its case shortly after
