In the ease of Affra H. Ryder of Brat

Co., III which a jury in the Windham
county court awarded the plaintiff
damages of $6,9S5.37 at the April term
last year, the supreme court affirmed
the decision for the plaintiff except as
to damages, demanding the cause as to
the damages.
The original suit was based on the
fact that Ryder, while employed at

FAIR MONEY HELD UP.
State Appropriation Can't be Paid I'm.
til Gambling Question is Settled

MONTPELIER, Jan. 1.-The $4,000
S ate appropriation to agricultural fairs
outside the state fair, usually distribute.
cl during the month of December, is
held up pending the investigation OF
the complaint that gambling devices,
games of chance and perhaps other
nefarious concoctions by which some OF
the good people OF Franklin county were
separated from their money had existed
on the grounds during the session OF
the Franklin county fair and Sheldon
last fall.
Auditor Graham has forwarded the
complaint and papers to State s At.
tgrney Gushing of st. Adams to make
an investigation and report. The Off
GERS of the fair affirm that if there
was anything of the sort conducted on
the grounds il was a matter they had
nothing to do with or countenanccG
and that they in fact knew nothing
about IT,
The appropriation is divided among
the fairs that do not declare dividend,
pro rata according to the amount OF
the prizes and premiums paid. Hence
before the division can be made, il
must be determined if the Franklin
county association is entitled to tho
money. The last contest was over tn,
appropriation made to the Mortified
fair. After an investigation and hear
ing the money was paid the association

This Month.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4-Delegates

Canada will meet here JAN Is and 49,
at the international forestry confer
ence to consider methods of checking
the spread OF the white pine blister
disease which threatens to destroy
white pine valued at 1865 100000. In
addition to foresters and experts along
this line, many lumber associations will
send delegates to the conference, plans
for which are being made by p. S.
Ridsdale, the secretary of the Ameri-
can Forestry association.
An added attraction of the sessions
will be visit to the New National
museum where 40 paintings of nation
al parks will be put on view for the
delegates.
Charles Lathrop Pack, president of

"This is the most important meet
ing of our organization, says Presi-
dent Pack. "The white pine diseas,
has spread through New England ane
other Eastern states and has beer
found as far west as Minnesota anC
Wisconsin. The spread must b,
checked before it is too late. The gov

E K HALL RESIGNS.
Leaves N. E. Telephone Co. for Posi-
ton in New York

BOSTON, JAN 4. The announce
ment Yesterday afternoon that Edward
X. Hall. vice president of the New
England Telephone and Telegraph com
panv. had resigned from that position
and that he had been elected vice pres
ident of the Electric Bond and Share
COMPANY of New York city, came as a
profound surprise to all those in the
downtown business district.
Although Nj Hall has had the New
York offer under consideration for
some time il was not finally decided
until yesterday afternoon. For some
months he will probably give about
half time to each company as il will
not be possible for him to drop his
work at the telephone company at once.
1t has been Known to q few init
mates Of Mr.. Hal that the New York
people were after him and had made
him very tempting offer, but he was
reluctant to leave Boston, where he
had so man. friends. There is nothing
| invdious in saying that he was prob.
ably the most popular man III the
New England Telephone and Telegraph
company. But the people of New York
/ finally made such an offer that Mr.. Hal
simply could not refuse.
The Electric Bond and Share com
pany is controlled by the General Flee
tric company. 1t does business along
| the lines of the Stone & Webster com
panv, except that it does no engineer
ing and construction other than fol
properties under its control. 1t acts a.
fiscal agents and supervises the man
!, agcmcnt of numerous important cleo
tric power and lighting systems.

Our Federal Building.

Brattlehoro is congratulating itself
on the fact that its new federal build
ing is nearing completion, and further
more that it is not OF the usual old type
of unloyely governmental structure The
building is of colonial style, handsome
in its appearance, q real ornament to
the village and complete in its appoint
ments. The village is open TO congratu-
lations, for apparently federal struc-
lures in Republican Vermont will be
few and far between during the forth
coming lean four years.
