It seems that a bottle of the "evidence" that was secured in the Riley pig case at Bisbee, was \sent to Professor Ladd of the agri cultural college for analysis, and when when court was in session just before Christmas, the professor was sent for to make his report on the analysis in the trial of the prisoner. When he ar rived other cases occupied tlie atten tion of the court, and, as the professor was unable to remain until the case would come up for trial, the court al lowed his report to be taken and the bottle figured in the court as "Exhibit A." The report and exhibit then be came matters of court record, and court being adjourned, Mr. Peck removed the "evidence"' to the vault in his office, for safe keeping until the trial comes on. He was obliged to make out commit ment papers for the sheriff, for the pris oners—Gilmer, father and son—immed iately after placing the "evidence" in the vault. It was setting on a shelf, in plain view of the office, and while Mr. Peck was making out the papers for the sheriff, the janitor, Paul Gransaulky, came in and, seeing, the bottle of "evi dence," remarked that "that's the stuff that put's them all on the hog, and guessed he'd go in and take a look at it, which he did. Mr. Peck being busy and paying no attention, as the janitor was in the habit of passing in and out ot all the offices in the courthouse, at his work. But his attention was called tos the ^natter very forcibly when Deputy Henderson, who had just come down from the court room, asked him if he knew "that* the janitor was drinking thpt stuff in the vault." He had seen him stand in the vault with the bottle to his lips as he came in the office door. Mr. Peck immediately jumped up and made for the door of the vault, and was met by Paul, coming out. On being ask ed if he had ben drinking the beverage in the vault, he denied it, but on being confronted by Mr. Henderson, who said, "I saw you drinking it," he said he "supposed it wasn't needed any more," and he admitted that he had drank it, which Mr. Peck found to be only too true on examining the bottle. He had drank the full quart. Judge Cowan will like have a bone to pick with Paul when court convenes on Jan. 18. Ib is said that Professor Ladd's fee for coming here to make his report was $75 and the evidence thus obtained, is new destroyed, or at least that part of it entered on the record as "Exhibit A" is out of reach of court or jury.

Sherbrooke Tribune: It is rumored tlAt the train on .the Aneta line is to be changed back to the old regime. We do not care particularly about any change in the train, but we do in re gard to the:lf}iail service. The Port land stage line service should never have been discontinued, as by that means we had direct connection with the through mail service in both direc tions and we are setisfied that but few of the patrons of the Sherbrooke of fice would have signed a petition for the establishment of the line to Hope, had it been made known that a discon tinuence of the Portland line was con templated in submitting a petition-for a new line. The Hope stage line is a Convenience in local matters, but in re gard to the general through mail ser vice, it will never be as satisfactory as the old Portland route. By that line we always had a daily mail—except Sunday—but at the present time the Saturday's mail reaches us on Tuesday and the regtriar mail one day late. Another thing, the clerical service is not as satisfactory by the yresent route. Again, the diseontinuence of the Port land star route service, was a great injustice to. the families along the line, that had received nearly all the ad vantages of a^ rural delivery route. There is no question, but that if a daily §tar route service from Portland to Sherbrooke, should be re-establish ed, from twehty-five to thirty families would place boxes in position on the line, to receive their mail. We do not wish to be understood as advocating the discontinucnce of the Hope service —that is very convenient in local mat ters—but we do stand for what we con sider to the best advantage of those who use the mail service in the trans action of business at the county seat, and for the further^ reaaon of return ing to the rural patrons of the old Portland-Sherbrobke, star route, the former satisfactory service of which they have been deprived for the past year, we suggest that such a route be established.
