SEEKS DAMAGES
G. B. Arnold of Burlington Wants
ST., 500 of American News Vend-
ing Company and Its Officers.

The American News Vending Com
pany and it's officers, which has had
a somewhat troublous course, is
again in serious trouble, a suit for
$4,000 having been brought against
it by G. B. Arnold of Burlington for
what he alleges was a conspiracy to
defraud him of $4,000. The de-
PENDANTS named in the suit are the
American News Vending Company,
E. x. Somers. F. M. Abbott, Charles
Weeks, w. J. Aldrich, A. p. Laid and
J. E. Alexander, the men being nam
ed as stockholders and officers of the
company. The suit is returnable in
Chittenden county court at Burling-
ton.
In his complaint Mr.. Arnold claims
that he was approached by Mr. Alex
ander as sales agent of the company
who represented to Mr.. Arnold that
he would be able to secure the ex-
elusive right to manufacture the Eu-
reka News Vending Machine for
which the company held the patents
in the state of New York, for much
less than it was worth, and that if
Arnold would pay him $500 he
would pay the company a like
amount and they would own the right
together Arnold says he paid the
$500, which was divided among
the stockholders named in the writ
and that Alexander did not pay a
cent for his half of the right. For
this he asks damages of $4,000,
and costs.
Arnold further claims that in sell
ing the patent of the company. Alex
ander represented that he was get
ting it for less than it was worth and
that he could induce the officers of
the company to sell it for $4,000
one half of which was to be paid by
Arnold and they to own it in COM
pany. He further represented that
the American News Vending Com
pany was a solvent dividend paying
concern and it's stock selling readily
for $3.50 a share. Arnold says the
defendants knew that the company
was paying no dividends and that the
stock cannot be sold at any price. He
claims that he paid Alexander the
$1,000 asked and wants it back now.
All the property of the company
has been placed under attachment
and it is probable the allegations of
Arnold will be heard at the next
term of Chittenden County Court

Even Most Chronic Sufferers
Find Relief After A Few
Doses Are Taken

Backache, urinary disorders, and
rheumatism, are caused from weak,
inactive kidneys, which fail to filter
out the impurities and keep the blood
pure, and the only way on earth to
permanently and positively cure such
t4bubles, is to remove the cause.
The new discovery, Croxone, cures
such conditions because it reaches
the very roots of the disease. 1t
soaks right into the stopped up, in
active kidneys, through the walls and
Innings; cleans out the little fltering
cells and glands; neutralizes and dis
solves the poisonous uric acid sub
stances that lodge in the joints and
muscles to scratch and irritate and
cause rheumatism; it neutralizes the
urine so it no longer irritates the
tender membranes of the bladder,
and cleans out and strengthens the
stopped up, lifeless kidneys so they
filter and sift all the poisons from

the blood, and drive it out of the
system.
So sure, so positive, so quick and
lasting, are the results obtained from
the use of Croxone, that three doses
day for a few days are often all
that is required to cure the worst
case of backache, regulate the most
annoying bladder disorders, and over
come the numerous other similar
conditions.
1t is the most wonderful prepara-
ton ever made for the purpose. IL
is entirely different from all other
remedies. There is nothing else on
earth to compare with it. 1t is so
prepared that it is practically impos-
sible to take it into the human sys-
tenn without results.
You can obtain an original package
of Croxone at trifing cost from any
frst-class drug store. All druggists
are authorized to personally return
the purchase price if Croxone fails to
give desired results, regardless of
how old you are, how long you have
suffered, or what else has failed to
cure you.

RECENT DEATHS.
Howe.

The community was greatly grleY-
ed at the accident Monday, May 70,
that resulted in the death May 27 of
Vernon Junius Howe, the only son
of Lucien and Lena Fisher Howe. He
was born in Montpelier, June %,
1903 and had made his home there
until two years ago when the family
moved here, where Mr.. Howe has a
position with the International Tele-
graph company. Vernon was a par
ticularly bright and lovable child and
always a prime favOrite among his
playmates as well as with his many
older friends. He was in the seventh
grade of the Portland street school,
having completed the work of the
sixth grade this year also. He was
the drummer boy for the Boy Scouts,
and had always been deeply interest
ed in the work of this organization.
During the night previous to the fu-
neral the body was watched by mem
bers of the Boy Scouts who kept two
hour watches, two serving at one
time. These scouts were Melvin Ell
lis, Tabor Stuart, Paul Sherry,
Allen Atkins, John Brodien, Har-
old Tillotson and Kenneth Lam
phere. The funeral services were
held at the Free Baptist church, Fri
day at 4 o'clock, the Rev. F. S. Toll
man officiating. Fifty Scouts at
tended and escorted the remains from
the home to the church. The fell
low class mates were also present, as
well as many others. Music was
furnished by Miss Agnes Hawkinson,
soloist and Miss Ruth Flint, organ
list. During the services two scouts
acting as guards were stationed at
the head and foot of the casket.
The bearers were six of the scouts.
There was an abundance of flowers
from many individuals and organi-
cations. Vernon had always been
very active in the Baptist church of
Montpelier, taking part in prayer
meetings, concerts, and being very
helpful in many ways. The burial
was in Jericho, Mr.. Howe's home
town, Saturday morning. Vernon
is survived by his mother and father
and two sisters, Clarissa, who grad
yates from the Academy this week.
and Beatrice Those from out of
town to attend the funeral were,
Mrs. S. G. Howe and son Horace of
Hartford, Conn, Mrs. Emma Lou

Opening of Sunset League.

The Sunset League opened May
&c, one day late, with a victory for
Y. NJ. c. A. over the T. A. c. in
close game, by the score of to /.
The band was on hand and played
martial airs during the contest. The
Y. Nj. G. A. team made the first run
in the first inning, on three singles
and a passed ball, and another in
fourth on hit, a steal and two err
rors, while the Il. A. G. found their
run in the last inning rally that fell
one short of tying the score. Both
pitchers were very effective, each
striking out ten men, but allowing
five hits apiece. Quick thinking by
Writers in inaugerating a double
play with two men on, shut off a
probable t. A. O. score in the third,
and in the fifth a pretty stop of a
hard grounder by Lynch, and the
resulting putout, made the third out
and shut off two Y. M. C. A. scores.

years ago, Colonial Paints Immediately in
augurated new era in the paint industry
and their influence in uplifting paint stand
ards has been constantly increasing.
Colonial Paints strictly honest paints
down to the smallest particular. No adul-
terants of any kind are used.
The ingredients are Pure Linseed Oil,
Pure White Lead and Pure Oxide of Zinc.
These are ground and amalgamated by
modern machinery in the most scientific
manner-everything in the way of perfected
equipment is utilized in the manufacture of
Colonial Paints. By means of a succession
of grindings in special mills of our own de-
sign, we bring the different ingredients to-
gether in the most intimate relations and
develop the richest coloring tone.
Colonial House Paint comes in upwards
of forty different shades and colors. There
are Colonial Paints for every use---inside

SCHOOL BOARD TAKES STEPS TOWARD MAKING OCALA
GREAT EDUCATIONAL Center

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AS
HIGH SCHOOL TO BE OVER
HAULED AND MADE OVER
INTO A COALNIODIOUS DORMI-
TORY FOR STUDENTS.
The Marion county board of pub
lie instruction has at last definitely
decided on the fate of the old Ocala
high school building. AT a meeting
few days since Mr.. w. d. earn,
chairman of the board, was chosen
as a committee of one to have the
large, we'll located building convert
ed into a dormitory. where pupils
from out of town will be provided
with first class room and board at
nominal figure while they are at
tending our excellent schools.
Mr.. earn has the plans for the re-
modelling of the huge building, made
some time since by Messrs. McIver &
changed. The Star reporter was
shown the plans yesterday and feels
that the board has done another of.
the many good things it has accom-
plished of late.
The building will have a large
colonial porch with huge columns
erected in front for both stories.
This will be the principal change for
the outside. The interior will be cut
up into rooms and halls, as follows:
First floor. Large living room,
study room, dining room, halls, kit
chen, pantry, bath and toilet, front
and rear stairway, lobby, closets and
front porch with five large bed
rooms. The living room, dining
room and study room will be very
large. All the rooms will be we'll
lighted and ventilated and with the
very high ceilings will be most COM
Portable.
The second floor will have a study
room, large hall, bath and toilet,
closets, front porch and sixteen large
bedrooms.
Each bedroom will be provided
with two single beds, giving sleep
ing accommodations to AZ students.
The house will be completely fur
nished by the school board, which
will own and control the property.
Bed linen and towels will be sup
piled by the students, who will be
required to have their own laundry
ing done and to care for their own
rooms.
The board will either rent the
house to some responsible person to
be operated under its supervision
with a limited charge of not to ex-
coed say $3.50 per month. A
monthly accounting of all receipts,
expenses and the conduct of the
house will be submitted to the board.
The board may employ a matron and
pay all expenses, charging the stud
ents actual cost only, the exact
method not having yet been decided
upon.
| Mr.. earn will have the work done
by the day or piece and not by con-
tract and will commence it at once.
He will have it all ready by the
opening of the school, with all fur
niture in and a matron in charge.
Il The building is excellently locat-
ed and is very convenient to the new
high school building. The property
is in first class repair and the ma
terial is Of the best and very little
money will have to be spent on II
for upkeep for several years 10
come
This is the very best use that the
property could have been put to and
the Star is indeed glad to see that

gest many months ago.
