ATTORNEY O'DR|EN
ACCUSED Of PERJURY
|
Rutland Lawyer Is Arrested
on Charge of Giving False
4 Testimony Nj
AT LIBERTY UNDER
BAIL BOND OF $4,000

Presented an Alleged Agreement, 25
Years Old and About to Expire.
Which He Said He Found in Files
In Rutland Law Office.
RUTLAND, Aug. 14.-Attorney Err
nest o Brien of this city was arrested
yesterday by Sheriff E. C. Fish on the
charge of perjury, the warrant being
issued on the complaint of Attorney
General II. G. Baruer of Brattleboro.
Mr.. O'Brien, who has been i'll at his
home many weeks following two Sc
rious surgical operations in the Rut
land hospital, furnished $4,000 bail for
appearance in court when wanted. The
case against him is similar to that
against George P. Eastman. a local
marble dealer, who is to be tried in
rutland county court September IL.
Both grow out of a controversy between
Eastman and the Vermont Marble com
pany regarding a boundary line be-
tween their adjoining marble properties
at West Rutland.
Mr., y Brlen $ slrety is Edward c..
Mcintyre of Rutland.
The accused attorney was witness
III the boundary case. 1t occupied the
attention of the courts for long period
and, after hearing before Judge Frank
l.. Fish of Vergennes, lasting for sew
eral weeks, was decided in favor of the
Vermont Marble company. Mr..
o .Brien s testimony had to do with an
alleged agreement, p years old and
about to expire which he said he found
in the files of the late Attorney Joel c.
Baker III o Brien Is office. The paper
containing the agreement was finally
withdrawn from the case by Mr.. East
man and secret inquests before Jndge
Edwin Horton were conducted byEthe
attorney general. Mr.. Eastman .waA ar
rested several weeks ago.
1t is alleged in the information Chat
in tcstifying before the court of chan
Gerry on October Is, 1917, in a contro-
versy in which George p. Eastman and
7. w. Clement were plaintiffs and the
Vermont Marble-coupany the deSanssiant
Mr.. O Brien committed perjury by Civ
ing evidence as follows:
That when ne went to Albany, n. Y,
on May 3, 1917, he did not see Eastman;

DON'T DRUG KIDNEYS
RUB BACKACHE AWAY
Instant relief! Rub palm, soreness and
stiffness from your back with
"St. Jacobs Liniment."

Kidneys cause backache? No. They
have no nerves, therefore can not
cause pain. Listen! Your backache is
caused by lumbago, sciatica or a
strain, and the quickest relief is sooth-
ing. penetrating "St. Jacobs Liniment "
Rub it right on the ache or tender
spot, and instantly the pain, soreness,
stiffness and lameness disappears.
Don't stay crippled. Get small trial
bottle of st. Jacobs Liniment' from
your druggist and timber up. A mo-
ment after it is applied you'll wonder
what became of the backache, sciatica
or lumbago pain. st. Jacobs Lini-
ment" stops any pain at once. 1t is
harmless and doesn't burn or discolor
the skin.
It's the only application to rub on a
weak, lame or painful back, or for lum-
bago, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism,
sprains or a strain.-Adv..

As I said before, we held the posi-
ton throughout the long day, and
withdrew under cover of darkness that
night. taking our wounded with US.
Out of 10 of all ranks in my own
company, that went into that attack
only % returned. ! was the only Of
ficer left in my company, and only
two junior n. C. O.'s came back with
me.
Considered as a demonstration OF
the dash and courage of our infantry,
it will have an inspiring significance.
We were back in the position from
which we started. sadly thinned in
our ranks, but we felt no sense of de-
feat, feeling sure before we went into
the attack that it was not possible
of success.

SAYS A CORN ACTS
LIKE ELECTRIC BELL
Tells why corn Is SO painful and says
Cutting makes them grow.

Press an electric button and you
form contact with live wire which
rings the bell. When your shoes press
against your corn it pushes it's sharp
roots down upon sensitive nerve and
you get a shock of pain.
Instead of trimming your corns.
which merely makes them grow, just
step into any drug store and ask for a
quarter of an ounce of freeZone. This
will cost very little but is sufficient to
remove every hard or soft corn or cal
lus from ones feet. A few drops ap-
piled directly upon a tender, aching
corn stops the soreness instantly, and
soon the corn shrivels up so it lifts
right out. root and all, without pain.
This drug is harmless and never in
flames or even irritates the surround
ing tissue or skin.-Adv.
