Rob inson entered the shop, fired, the bul let entering Chase’s breast, close to the heart. Chase died immediately. Robinson then proceeded down Fourth street, several blocks, with the title still in his hands. He went direct ly to the house of W. H.

There is no reason for thinking there hail been ill feeling between Robinson and any of ltis victims. Collector Doddridge says lie never even saw or heard of Robinson before. COST TOO MUCH. rhe Ships and Material for the Panama Canal Must Be Bought in the Open Markets ot the World Iwing to Excessive Cost at Home, Fully 5C Per Cent, in Some Cases. Washington. May If..—The executive 'nmndttee of the Isthmian Canal Cum. .1 is in. today, decided to purchase In lhe markets of the world the material in.] ships necessary for the huihliug .I' the Panama canal. This important decision was reached ,vilh some reluctance l>y the appre iative Sec. Taft, woo thinks there will i.e a great outcry l.y the shipbuilders if this country. Put it was decided hat the money consideration was so Teat that it could not lie ignored, for t was held that in cases fully f.o per •ent. more would he charged for ma terial needed in canal construct ior l!);iii the same Roods could be procured for In Europe. Chief Engineer Wallace, for Instance, showed that two ships In addition to those running between New York anl Colon. and owned by the Panama Ruil toad Co., were absoluttly necessary to carry the food supplies and material needed for the work. No American ships could lie bought at any reason aide price and when it came to build ing such ships i* was found necessary, according to Sec. Taft's statement, that while he could buy two f>000-ton ships in Europe for JT.'iO.liOO. it would cost S1.400.non to build such ships here. And m addition, while the European ships could lie had at once, it would take at hast IS months to secure American boats. As to material needed for canal con struction. llie committee decided that by reserving to itself the rigid to pur base in the wot id's market it would at least oblige American manufacturers to give them the benefit of their foreign prices If they wisli to sell goods to the committee. Sec. Taft explained, today, that he tell obliged to endolfe this decision lie cause having given Congress every op portunity to give a contrary direction, lie frit Hint the very terms of the canal net provided that 't should be con structed at the lowest possible cost.

This will make the track very easy of access. Another committee was appointed to collier with M. A.

May 1~> Tin* ministry of ma rine has received a dispatch annonne. jpg Ilia! the torpedo boat destroyer Ar bileto 1ms arrived at Cagliari, Sardinia, tov.ir.g the auto boat Qiinnd Memo hov ing on hoard her owner, the I)ukc De i ’arcs and all the crew o'” the racer. The Quand Metric led the racers from Port Mahon. Island if Minorca, until about fit) miles outside of Toulon, when the storm blew her track over the same course she had taken. The rescue of the Ottand Memo closes the contest without loss of life but with only two of the seven starters afloat. Further advices reci iverl by the min istry of marine show that the crew of the Quand Meme were saved but that the boat itself was abandoned. The commander of the Arbaletele tele graphs that ke has all the members of tire crew' on board the destroyer, but that he was unable to bring the Quand Meme into port, os heavy seas swept over the auto boat, last night, repeat edly snapping the tow line and making it1 impossible to tow her. The Duke De Cazes was among tire rescued. Jhe Laxative There are two classes of remedies; those of known qual ity and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting gently, in harmony with nature, when nature needs assist ance; and another class, composed of preparations of unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting tempo rarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing the natnral functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of the remedies of known quality and excellence is the ever pleasant Syrup of Figs, raannfactnred by the California Fig Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of Plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup, in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to con tribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming consti pation and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active princi ples and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. We do not claim that it will cure all manner of ills, but recommend it for what it really represents, a laxative remedy of known quality and excellence, x containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious character. There are two classes of purchasers; those who are informed as to the quality of what they buy and the reasons for the excellence of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courage to go elsewhere when a dealer offers an imitation of any well known article; but. unfortunately, there are some people who do not know, ami who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They eannot expect its beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy. To the credit of the druggists of the United States be it said that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional integrity and the good will of their customers too highly to offer imitations of the m Genuine—Syrup of Figs 1% manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., and in order to V v hny the genuine article and to get its beneficial effects, one has only to note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company— f:-q California Fig Syrnp Co.—plainly printed on the front of "jlf package. Price, BOc. per bottle. One size only.

Dunlin of the Boston Nationals, is hat ting at the .350 pace. Louisville’s third baseman. Montgomery, broke an ankle sliding into a base. The Little Koyk baseball team is cred ited with losing 11 out of the last 14 games played. “Slashaway” McLean, formerly of the Boston Nationals, is playing with a Port land tore.i team. Ducky Holmes of the White^ Sox, has fn*en caHed home on account of the seri ous illness of his wife. Josh Clarke, who is making good with tie St. Louis Cardinals, is a brother of I red Clarke of Pittesburg. MefSoeban. who got a trial from the Athletics, has turned his footsteps from Toronto to join Hamilton’s team. Pitcher Dresser says that Buelbach. tin* new pitching acquisition of Selee. is the best coll* ge pitcher he ever saw. Brown. the Chicago pitcher, has no in dex linger on his right hand. He can make the ball “talk” just the same. Indianapolis wants John Farrell releas ed by St. Louis, but tls said that Pitts burg refuses to waive claim to him. Ous Pundon of the Chicago Americans, has had an attack of appendicitis, but has deferred being operated on until next fall. No wonder Vinson was benched bv La Jnie. His batting average was only JW7 When the Cleveland manager substituted Jackson. The American League race is so tight now that the bottom team may go to the top .and the top one to the bottom in a few games. The minor leaguers always hail with de light the passing of a major leaguer. It usually means a good player for the small fry club. Jim Delehanty’s injured foot is well enough now to permit him to do light batting practice, but it will be some time yet before be can play with the Boston Nationals. Jimmy Collins .and Jesse Burkett are the leading run-gutters for the Boston Americans, while Tenney and Cnnnell rank first and second, respectively, for the Nationals. A tumor was cut out of “Rube” Wad dell's neck three days after lie struck out 1_* of the Washington batters. What would In* have dune to them without the aid of the tumor9 A lot of the spit-hall slingers are suffer ing trom son* arms. The evil will wurk out its own salvation. It has got Ches hro on the pan all right, and others will go in the same way. The runs a pl.-ner may send over the plate for his side by timely stick work are pot always remembered, but the runs he allows the other fellow’s through an error are never forgotten. President Pulliam says the obnoxious spit ball is just at legitimate as any ordi nary curve used bv pitchers, and that it cannot be stopped as long as the boxtnen can produce the necessary saliva. Here is one ball player who made good his threat to retire from the game. Mi ehiwl Joyce O’Neill, the “southpaw” pitcher, said he was going into business, and he made good. He is conducting a grocery in Scranton. Pa. A dispatch from Wheeling says: “John CSanzoll. first baseman and principal own er of the Grand Rapids team, lias decided to give up his light against Clark Griffith, manager of the New York Americans, and report to that club in a few days.” Herald: Last season Washington won one game out of p». Well, that’s no rea son that club should make a similar rec ord this year. The Boston Americans went ahead with a rush last season, but didn’t this. Now go on and dope it out. Johnny Kdwards. the Chicago National second baseman, who was knocked into dreamland for half an hour by a thrown ball, has recovered and gone to his home I in Troy. N. Y., to spend a few days with his folks and try to forget about the wallop. St. Louis has a scheme to offset Ar ntour’s licorice which has now been put into use by Cleveland and other cities to put the spit hall out of the running. The Browns are using benzine to clean off the sticky stuff. It is said to work like a charm. Think of making six steals in one in ning and all of them clean. And yet that i is what Chicago did in that finish. Satur I day. The “Colts” stole IS bases in their tour games at Boston. The wonder is that they did not win everything in sight with such a record. Clarke Griffith: “This pennant race is fiercer than ever now. On account of the Washington team’s weakness last season a team could get a breathing spell once in a while when games were scheduled with i the Senators, hut now’ the strain never relaxes, and every time w’e play a game it is with a crackerjaek team, and every body has to be up on the edge all the 'while/* Boston Herald: The second week of the New Kngland League season finds Lowell

Varsity Has Three Games This Week— Orono Result Very Satisfactory. Brunswick, Me.. May la.—(Special).— The Bowdoin baseball team left on the 4.4S express, this afternoon, for Amherst, where it will play the Amherst team, to morrow. Wednesday, the nine will play Holy Cross at Worcester, returning to Brunswick, sometime Thursday. Tin* makeup of tin* team will be me sain** as in the last few games. Files will prob ably pitch against Amherst and Lewis in the Holy Cross game. This will be one of the busiest weeks of the spring term for the baseball team, there being a total of three games during that time, the game with Colby on the Whittier Athletic held. Saturday after noon. being the third contest. The track team men who did such mag nificent work at Orono, Saturday, are the heroes of the college, today, tin* demon stration of the student body as tin* dif ferent members tiled into chapel, this morning, being a notieeable feature of the da>. The victory at iMono. Satur day, is considered by Bowdoin students as clie of tin* greatest eve! nehieVed ill track athletics. This is not so much due to the tig arcs as to the disadvantages which the squad labored under the pres ent year. In addition to big losses by graduation and otherwise, the team lost its regular coach just as the hard part of the season was beginning, and which necessitated the securing of a new man who had to learn the men and tin* situa tion at short notie.-. Coupled wi-th this was the loss of Weld, who was looked upon as on. of the star men. lie being unable to enter the contest because of the fall lie sustained in the trials. That Bowdoin should pull out a vii lory is con sidered a gr»*at achievement, and the sat isfaction here is the greatest in a long time. Circular letters announcing the meeting of the New Kngland Intercollegiate Press Association at the Copley Square hotel in Boston have been reeeived here. The meeting will be held. May W. F. Finn. ‘OT*. who was editor-in-chief of the Bow doin Orient, Iasi year, is president of the association and extensive plans are being made for the meeting. The members of the freshman class who wish to be candidates for assistant man agers of any of the different athletic teams of the college began work, this week, in the competition for the same. Previous to this time these positions liev been tilled bv popular vote of tin* student body in mass meeting. Beginning at this time all men who care to trv for the posi tions must do so by competitive work as signed to them by the present managers, and only those excelling in this work will be eligible to nomination for the assist ant managership of the teams. The com petition is now going on for the baseball, football and track managerships. NOTES OF THE FIELD DAY. Sidelights on Last Saturday's Contests i Between the Four Colleges. Rohinsnn. flip Rowdoin runner who easily won both the one mile and" two mile rnees at Orono. Saturday. is tiie son ot Prof. F. C. Robinson of the Rowdoin faculty. In his own student days Professor Robinson was a promi nent oarsman. The work of Coombs of Colby in the field events was remarkably Rood, par ticularly in the shot, for a man who lias been devoting all his time to base ball. Thatcher of the C. of M. nine has also done little* or no training on tiie track, this spring, but he came out and won tiie broad jump and took sec ond place in tiie low hurdles. The eight points won by Colby at the intercollegiate field day at Orono, Saturday, were more than it has won at any field day since that of p.tuo when it carried off IT. Rates, on tiie con trary. in getting only four points had to be content with the smallest num ber it has ever won sinre the field day was established in 1S!ir>. Tiie different events were run off promt.fly anil smoothly, reflecting much credit upon the 1\ of M. man agement anil upon tin* various officials chos“ti. No official deserves more eredit for the success of the meet in this respect than Herbert I,. Swett of Skowhegan, the clerk of course, who has been an official at many of these field days and thoroughly understands every detail collected with them. Willi stars like Denning in the weights. Toltev in the hurdles, Robin son and Sliorey in the long runs. Everett in tiie half mile and Kimball in the quarter, Rowdoin ought to win more points at Hie New England col lege field day at Worcester, next Sat urday. than it has won there for sev eral years. Ifetween Porter in tiie dashes and Shaw in the pole vault, the I'niversity of Maine has also the right to expect a few points. Last Saturday's intercollegiate field day at Orono was the lltli In which tiie four Maine colleges have par ticipated. Rowdoin has won 10 of them and T\ of M. one. In total number of points Rowdoin has won sr.o'f; IT. of M.. "fiT'i: Rates, 13914, and Colby 93'4. This year’s field day was the first in the second series of 10 for the possession of a second massive sil ver mp, suitably Inscribed. Next year's field day will be held at Lewis ten. Rates lost one point at the college field day at Orono tlii Agh tiie mistak en zeal of a Rates Ian wlio was standing beside the track near the finish line when tiie two-mile race was being run. As they came down tiie home stretch on the last lap, two Row doin men were well ahead with a Hates man in third place and a XT. of M. runner fourth. The Rates enthusiast beside the track, anxious to encourage and congratulate the representative of his college, rushed out and dragged the Rates runner over the finish line. For this act. which was not at all his own fault, the Rates runner was disquali fied by the judges and third place giv en to the I', of M. man who came In fourth. No college athlete in the State ever gathered In a larger collection of medals than lias been won in the past seven years by Denning, the- big and popular Howdoin captain. For three years at Kent's llill he won the weight events at the interschnlastie meets, and for four years at I’.owih in he has done the same thing at the Maine col lege Held days and at the New Eng land meet at Worcester. In addition to the S3 or 4A medals of gold, silver and bronze, secured by winning \irst and second places, he lias won several for breaking Maine and New England records. The intrinsic value of his medals is several liunilred dollars, while of course from the point of view of a college athlete the collection is priceless. The biggest surprise of the day was the defeat of Wyman, the IT. of M. star quarter toiler, by Kimball of Row doin. Last year Wyman was beaten at the tape by'Wold of Howdoin in a desperate burst of speed which broke the Maine record. It was known that Wyman was running in splendid form this spring, and fearing that lie would lie invincible I tie Howdoin captain de cided to withdraw Weld from the quarter and start him in the two dash es where lie was regarded as certain of points. Kimball, an unknown quant ity. was put in the quarter. The Orono linys had never heard of him and a victory by Wyman was regard ed on till sides as a foregone conclu sion. As a cnnsefiuence there was pandemonium among the Howdoin rooters atul a pail of gloom over the Orono contingent when Kimball shot by Wyman at the last turn and came down tin* stretch, a winner by yards. This unexpected victory was a recom pense to Howdoin for the points which Weld failed to get in the dashes as tile result of a strained tendon which threw him to the ground as though siiot in the final heat of the 100 yards dash. Kimball is a sophomore and is a Hath boy. Harvard’s Crew for Race with Cornell. Cambridge. Mass..
