CHARGE OF ASSAULT
WITH INTENT TO KILL
Job Phillips of Tinmouth Arrested in
Connection with Death of Henry
Towne Of Dandy.

RUTLAND, July Z. = Job Phillips
of Tinmouth, about so, was arrested
Sunday night at Granville, n. Y, by
Deputy Sheriff A. C. Mason of Paw
let on the charge of assault with intent
to kill in connection with the death of
Overseer of the Poor Henry Towne of
Dandy, who passed away June % as the
outcome of injuries he received May 30
while on a trip to Granville by carriage
with Phillips. A warrant, issued on
complaint of State s Attorney c. V.
Poulin of Rutland, has been out for
some time, but Phillips, who left town
as soon as it was discovered that
Towne g injuries were serious, has man.
aged to elude the officers until the pres
ent time.
Deputy Sheriff A. A. Leonard of
Wallingford and Mr.. Poulin, mainly.
have been at work on the case. Sunday
Deputy Mason received word that there
was some disturbance at the house of
Roy Wright in Granville and on going
there he found Phillips among the par.
ty who were assembled. The man was
lodged in Jail and yesterday was taken
before Judge Martin in Granville 20
lice court. He waived his extradition
rights and was brought to Rutland and
lodged in the Rutland county jail
State Attorney Poulin went to
Woodstock to confer with ATTORNEY
General H. G. Barber of Brattleboro
and it is probable that the grand Jury
which served in Rutland county court
during the spring term win be recalled
to consider Phillips s case.
Mr.. Poulin received from the state
laboratory of hygiene at Burlington a
report of the result of the autopsy on
Towne s body, but he made nothing
concerning it public.
Towne was found beside the road,
near Dandy, helpless, after making the
Granville trip with Phillips. He was
badly bruised and it is said that a rib
lpunetured one of his lungs He had
Ebeen lying in the ditch all night.
Jobs brother, Jay, was brought tc
Rutland yesterday to serve 10S DAYS al
the county Jail for intoxication.

WEST CHESTERFIELD N. H.
Death of Hermon G. Smith.

In the death of Hermon G. Smith. 90,
on Wednesday, June 30, after a long
Illness, this community lost a useful
and respected citizen. Mr.. Smith was
born on the ancestral Smith farm in
the western part of Chesterfield, near
the Connecticut river, Oct. 3, 1915,
being a son of George and Elmira
(Smith) Smith, both parents being de-
,scendants of Moses Smith, the first set
tier of Chesterfield. In early life he
attended the little red school house =
of district No. /, and his surviving
schoolmates remember him as a studi-
Gus and conscientious pupil. On Dec
-, 1872, he married Mary L., daughter
of Milo /. and Esther (Farnum)
Phelps of Granville, Mass. Their son.
survives, also one granddaughter Helen
A. Smith.
About two years after their marriage
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith removed to New
man, ILL.,, where they engaged in farm
ing for about three years, when they
returned to this town. About 45 years
ago Mr.. Smith bought part of the old
town farm, formerly the old John
Snow homestead, and engaged in farm
ing as long as his health permitted For
many years he was member of Spot
ford Grange, No. SO, in which he was
an earnest worker. He also held q com
mission as notary public.
The funeral services were held Satur-
day afternoon in the Universalist
church at West Chesterfield, the ven
cradle Rev. DR.. s. II. NJ 'Collester, the
old-time pastor, officiating. The Grange
also attended in body Among per
sons present from other towns were Ed
win Phelps of Southampton, Mass, and
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Freeland of West
field, Mass.

ANTI-LIQUOR FORCES
OPPOSED TO MANN
Will Not Support Congressman Mann
john l.. Sullivan Calls Gen.
Miles Arrogant Peacock

ATLANTIC CITY, n. j., July T.
The Anti-Saloon League of America,
which opened its annual national con
vention here yesterday, has not yet
decided for what presidential candi
date it will spend the $5,000,000 war
fund to be raised, but it will not be
for Congressman James r. Mann of
Chicago, Republican floor leader Of the
house of representatives. Hundreds of
delegates, who say they represent one
half the voting population of the
United States, were pledged to work
against the presidential aspirations of
the republican whip, who, they say,
did everything in his power to block
the measure to submit the prohibition
question to national popular vote
which passed the house in the last con-
gress and died in a senate committee.
1t doesn t make any difference to
the anti-saloon forces whether they
back 4 Democrat or Republican, so
he is for prohibition or the submission
of the prohibition constitutional
amendment to a popular vote. Be
cause of the mistiness which beclouds
the selection of the Republicans there
are now two names in consideration.
One, of course, is William Jennings
Bryan. The league would like to have
the prohibition issue the main plank
in the platform of the Democratic par
ty next year. The members expect
Mr.. Bryan to make woman suffrage
and prohibition his two big issues for
national favor, and they are naturally
leaning toward the former secretary of
state.
There are those who form a strong
wing of the league who do not think
so highly of. the Nebraskan IS running
chances, and believe that in view of
the house s action on the prohibition
measure last year and of other recent
developments President Wilson should
be their choice. Delegates are much
encouraged by the recent Wilson note
to Texas in the big prohibition fight
there. Delegates believe he viii make
the submission of the prohibition ques-
ton one of the planks of his platform
The committee of arrangements an
ncunced that it had received the fol
lowing telegram from John l.. Sulli-
van. dated New York, sent as a result
of General Nelson A. Miles refusing to
act as chairman of the convention if
Sullivan was to be one of the speakers:
To the Chairman, Anti-Saloon Con-
vention, Atlantic City, n J.
/ have no desire to address a con
vention, if bigotry and narrow minded
| ness hold sway, with a pretense of DO
ing good, aud which is presided over
| by an arrogant, prejudiced, self-cen-
tered, strutting old peacock / have
| never been Jealous Of any fighter: why
| should Miles be jealous of me? Yours

The restriction placed on the SEIZED
ule that Yale. Princeton, Harvard,
Pennsylvania and Cornell be omitted
is considered a good one, especially as
it does not bar Columbia from meet
inq, such teams as Dartmouth, syria
cuse. Carlisle, Williams, Amherst La

with all those named, especially II car
ried through with success, would un-
doubtedly be highly satisfactory TO
the average Columbia man. We can
wait. they say, for the Big Five and
have lots Of good games in the interim.
Nor does the fact that all games
must be played on college grounds oher
the insurmountable obstacles apparent
on the surface at first blush. Despite
warns TO the contrary, Columbia IS not
blaming to build its stadium at RIVER
side Park for good many years. South
Field is admittedly inadequate, but
there is no apparent restriction against
nIavinp on the new City College he!d
az Jasper Oval, where a fair SIZED
stadium is being built. This IS held
close to Columbia, and the cordlai
academic relations existing between the
two make it reasonable to believe that
Columbia could obtain PERMISSION 10
use the field on certain stated occa-
sions. The college grounds restrlcuoh
certainly would not be violated.
Then there is the coaching problem
