WILL GO TO GRAND JURY.
Case of Mrs. Eugene Mccarthy Charged
With Killing Her Sister.

Rutland, March 2.-The following
grand jurors will have to decide at the
spring term OF Rutland county court,
which opens in this city March 10 at 2
p. M, whether or not Mrs. Eugene Nc
earthly of West Rutland, who shot and
killed her sister, Miss Alice b. Kerrigan,
last summer, is sane or insane Wilbur
b. Avery, Brandon; William Dodge,
Pawlet; Henry G. Farrar and Adolphus
Roussil, Rutland Marcellus Francis,
Wells; Rolla G. Griffin, Sudbury; G.
Frank Hendee, Pittsford; Albert p

well, Chittenden.
At the time of the discovery of Miss
Kerrigan"s body, buried in the earthen
floor of the cellar at her home, several
days after her death, it was reported
that Mrs. Mccarthy was erazed from
the use of liquor when she killed her sis
ter sister as she lay asleep on a lounge.
IL was subsequently claimed that she
was insane and the Rutland county
court ordered her sent to the state hos
pital at Waterbury for observation.
As the proceedings of the grand Jury
are strictly secret, States Atty. B. /.
Stafford declined to say yhat has been
reported to him from Waterbury rela-
tive to the woman but the fact that the
case is to go before the grand jury is
taken to mean that the authorities are
not convinced that she is insane.

Famous Journalist Praises Western
State Universities.

In the February American Magazine,
Ray Stannard Baker, one of the most
famous journalists of the present time,
bcrias new series of letters from the
field entitled Seeing America" His first
letter is report fr07..he west. Fol-
lowing is an extract in which he praises
western state universities:
81 think it is beyond question that
the most significant expression of mid
die western life to-day is the growth of
interest in education. Certainly nothing
in the west, not even their surprising
cities, gives the visitor such sense of
life, of power, of understanding, as the
new state universities. Tremember, al
most twenty years ago, / took a trip in
much this same region, as a newspaper
correspondent, to make inquiries as TO
the drift of public opinion. Whom did
/ go to see? Why "a leading banker "a
big railroad man. / dined at the club
with .one of the most prominent bust
ness men in - / saw them because
they were truly the men of their time,
the vital men. They had the power and
the influence. The typical men of
twenty years ago were Rockefeller and
Armour They had the admiration of
the country. The captain of industry
was the ruling captain.
"But to-day an entirely different sort
of leadership is appearing in America,
and a traveller who would see things as
they are must seek out a wholly differ.
ent sort of man. 1t is in our institu-
tions of learning that the new leader
ship is having its most notable develop
ment, The captain of industry has
played his part and gone his way. Enter
now, in blaze of light. the university
president or professor. We elected one
of them last November to the White
House, and he, in turn. has brought to
his assistance many other college pres
idents and professors. Only the other
day one of the great railroad companies
of the nation took the unheard-of course
of electing a university president to its
board OF directors -Hadley of Yale. The
satisfied public spirit in which it was
greeted. shows TO what an extent the
people asquiesce in the leadership of
college men,"

Does the child in the school eve pause

Alas, I'm afraid they don't stop to
