VOL. XXXVIII. AUGUSTA, MAINE FRIDAY MORNING. JUNE 14, 1907 NO. 141 A NEWJLUE. Cap Found Near Scene of Waterville’s Murder. John Tharapis, Accused, Said to Run Away Without His. Funeral of Dead Man, Costas Las karides, Held Thursday. Watervilie, Me., June 13.—(Special). —A development in the case of the al leged murder of Costas P. Laskarides was reached today when Deputy Sher iff George S. Simpson found behind a barrel in the store on Lockwood street in which the stabbing affray occurred Tuesday a cap said to belong to John Tharapis, the man accused of the crime and now in the jail at Augusta. Those who allege that they saw Tnarapis making his escape say that ne was hatless, and it was learned by the officers on the night of the alleged tragedy that he was accustomed to wear a cap. Deputy Sheriff C. L. Jones accordingly made un immediate search for the missing article, and the search has been kept up ever since. The find ing of the cap is an important advance in the case and may make the differ ence between indictment and failure to indict v. hen the case comes before the grand jury in September. Costas Laskarides, the dead man, was buried at 4 o'clock today in the Pine Grove cemetery. He was a com municant of the Greek church, which has affiliation with the Church of Eng land and the Protestant Episcopal Church of America. The burial service was read by Rev. George Bruce Nicholson, rector of St. Mark’s church of Watervilie. About 2t of the dead man's country men attended tho services. The great er part of them were from Watervilie. though a part were from Fairfield and a few from Portland. One man, a per sonal friend of the dead man, came from Boston. When the casket was opened prior to the service, in order that those as sembled might take a last look at the features of the deceased, there arose an excited discussion which proved to be about having a photograph taken of the deceased. One of the relatives had tried to mnke arrangements for a picture when the casket was opened, but the photographer was unable to be present. Costae N. Laskarides, who is a cousin of the murdered man and whose name is like his except for the middle initial, refused to allow the burial to proceed until he had secured a photographer “He is my cousin.” he said in Eng lish, when pressed to withdraw his ob jections. Laskarides started in the di rection of the city, hut returned when the explanation was made to him that three photographs of the dead man were found in the latter's pockets af ter his d ath. Laskarides was promised one of these, and the burial service proceeded without further interrup tion. Laskarides secured the photo graph upon the return of the funeral party to the city. No further developments arc expect ed in the case until the session of the grand jury in September, unless new evidence is discovered, or someone goes to the officers with a more definite story than has yet been secured.

Me., is a long way from the Sixth district court room on ->rlh Main sirect. but John O'Brien, who wandered away from the Soldiers' Home there a month ago, was so anxious to got hack that ho was willing to run all the way If the court would only let him go. O'Brien, w ho is 3‘t y-nrs old. lie says, lmt who looks older, was arraigned on the charge of larceny of a coat ami vest valued at $10.75 from a Weybossett Street store. He pleaded guiltv, and produced a card showing that he was on a tirt days' furlough from the Togus Home. O'Brien made his war record in the first Rhode island Regiment, and when he left Togus lie drifted hack to Providence, his old home, and by bis own admission, got to drinking lieavilv. He was under the influence of liquor when arrested, and was fined fot drunkenness in police court. He was a talkative prisoner, and showed the utmost v.'illingsness to con fide all his affairs to the court. Judge Lee decided that the best disposition of the case would be to send O'Brien bade to tho shelter of Togus. I’m going to place you iu charge o, Mr. Wallace, lie will see that you get nut of the state. Now will you prom ise to stay out?" he said to O Hrieu. “Yes, your honor: I'll go if T h ive to rn?i all tho way,” said tho prison or f*‘r* ventlv. and he wins led awav mutter ing things about bad company.

Then came a showing us to how the prisoner bad been dressed and gloomed for the trial, and lastly, for clitimx. they showed Orchard pleading for and saving the life of Bob Wetter, condemned to death for murder. Orchard admitted that he bad appealed to Gov. Gooding about Wetter and that later Gooding first reprieved Wetter and then commuted his sentence of death to life Imprisonment. Orchard left the stand at 2.30 o’clock after having occupied it for 32 hours and a half. Just before he was ex cused and remanded lie went back to the hands of the prosecution and iden tified the casing of the bomb he plant ed at the gate of Judge Goddard’s house in Denver. Orchard is to return to the witness chair later because the defence must, lay the formal linos for impeaching him and the state must still have its re-direct examination. Immediately after Orchard left the stiind the state began the corroboration of the Bradley poisoning story. Mrs. Sadie Swain, who as Miss Sadie Bell, was a maid in the Bradley home at Silver Creek. Iho milk man who sold the milk that was poisoned, and P. L,. McCreary, the chemist, who analyzed the milk, carried the revolting tale of tlie discovery that showed from 40 to 60 grains of strychnine in a quart of it. Mrs. Swain identified Orchard and con nected him with the house. It all con firmed the date as within three or four days of the explosion and Mrs. Swan swore that she opened the front door to get the merning paper a few minutes be fore the explosion and saw nothing on the steps. There will be further tes timony as to the Bradley incident to morrow. Immediately after the noon recess for mer Governor Peabody of Colorado met Harry Orchard in the office of the coun sel for the prosecution. The meeting was unexpected, as far as Orchard was con cerned, and when he saw Peabody ad vancing toward him with hand out stretched lie blanched and began to trem hl s. “I am ashamed to speak to you, gov ernor. I am ashamed to look at you,” faltered Orchard. “O, that’s all right,” said Peabody, laughingly. "You need not be ashamed to speak to me now.” Orchard began rrying and when Pea body succeeded in reassuring him he said: ”1 am glad that I did not kill you and that I utu spared the thought of that :‘rime, at least.” Orchard and Peabody afterward spent 15 or 20 minutes together and departed in i friendly waj Boise, June 1”.—The trial of William f>.

A special committee has already been ap pointed by the association to investi gate tiie alleged overcharges and it is expected that at the meeting the com mittee will report itself as ready to place the result of its work before a court. The investigating committee, acting under direction of General Frank S. Streeter, who has been engaged as legal counsel, has collected data con certing a number of claims against tlie road and it is their intention to select the most promising of these for use as a test case. The sidt, if the association decides to bring one, will not be brought by the association, but in the name of the member whose claim is selected. The association, however, will give the suit financial support. if the test case is won by the lumber mi rt it is expected that cases aggre gating millions of dollars will be brought against the road and that they will include claims on alt classes of freight.

Appleyard Makes Heavy Short Sales, Fails to Make Good His Margins and Disappears. HIS FAILURE IS ANNOUNCED. Well Known in Boston==Was to Have Set= tied a Buffalo Bank Claim Today-Grand Larceny Indictment Is Pending. Philadelphia, June 13.—Announce ment was made at the opening of the Stock Exchange today of the insolven cy of A. E. Appleyard, one of its mem bers. Appleyard created a sensation yesterday by selling many thousands of shares of the stock of the United Gas Improvement Co., depressing the price nearly $4 a share. He admitted that these were “short” sales and his extensive operations puzzled the local brokers. It is stated that he was un able to respond to calls for margins today, hence the announcement of the failure. I’nited Gas Improvement stock, which closed at yesterday, opened today at 93 and was feverish and excited around that figure, transactions being heavy. Appleyard has disappeared. The larger Stock Exchange houses got together soon after the exchange opened and agreed to make the adjust ment price on United Gas stock 92 U. They took 13,300 shares of stock at that price “under the rule.” One broker says Appleyard went short of more than 20.000 shares of United Gas, some of which he bought in at a profit. Until yesterday Apple yard’s operations on the exchange had been so insignificant that he was known to only a. few of his fellow mem bers. KNOWN IN BOSTON.

STOP WOMAN AND CONSIDER First, that almost every operation in our hospitals, performed upon women, becomes necessary because of neglect of 6ueh symptoms as Backache, Irregularities, Displace ments, Pain in the Side, Dragging Sensations, Dizziness and Sleepless ness. Second, that Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound, made from native roots and herbs, has cured more cases of female ills than any other one medicine known. It reg- ulates, strengthens and restores women s health and is invaluable in preparing women for child-birth and during the period of Change of Life. Third, the great volume of unsolicited and grateful testimonials on file at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn. Mass., many of which are from time to time being nublished by special permission, give absolute evi dence of the value of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound For more than 30 years has been curing Female Complaints, such as Dragging Sensations, Weak Back, Falling and Displacements, In flammation and Ulceration, and Organic Diseases, and it dissolves and expels Tumors at an early stage.

She is the Mrs. Pinkham who has been advising sick women free of charge for more than twenty years, and before that she assisted her raother-in-law, Lydia E. Pink ham in advising. Thus she is especially well qualified to guide sick women back to health. Write today, don’t wait until too late. FEAR OF CHINA Hampers Russia in the Far East Reconstruction. Has Lost Prestige With Mon-;! golians to Alarming Extent. Seeing Danger Ahead Russia Strengthens Siberian Borders. Harbin, June 11, Via Mukden, June 1".— i;ussla's plans of reconstruction in tilt- far Hast now appear to be based on fear of China. Notwithstanding a lack f.i money, Russia is endeavoring to greatly strengthen her Siberian bor ders. Tiie effect of their loss of prestige with tin- Chinese powerfully impresses the Russian people. All the Russians formerly employed n the island of Saglialen have aban doned the Japanese there, though they an- needed in various industries. The frontier line in Saglialen and Russia and Corea is strictly military. Rus sia's contentions regarding the fisher ies have been disregarded and the ne gotiations for joining the Russian and Japanese railways at K’.vang-Cheng tau have failed, the Japanese conduct ing both along tneir own lines. The Russians declare their inability to com bat Japanese advances of Manchurian interests. Minister of War Terauchi lest week inspected the Japanese strategic posi tion at Kwang-Chengtau, causing dis ijuict to the Russian oliicials, who say that the relations between the two nations are not yet on a working basis. Tiie failure of government railways and other peaceful methods used in tlv> past to establish Russian trade or meet tiie new conditions in Manchuria lias forced Russian vested interests h re to appeal for the introduction of foreign enterprise which, it is cx expeeted, would constitute a barrier to the Japanese. In Siberia the double tracking of the railway has been indefinitely post poned and the government is devoting itself solely to correcting Russia's or iginal strategic lines on the frontier as shown by the re-survey of the Amur Railway north of the Amur river. It is planned to connect the Amur and Baikal roads, giving protected com munication to Priuiorisk in case of ac cident to the exposed trims-Baikal railway or the loss of the indefensible Manchurian railway. The Russian ministry of war is in augurating a policy ot exploration in Eastern Manchuria. Mongolia and the Amur basin, but the government is subsiding business in Mongolia only outside of the Japanese sphere, its pur pose being to strengthen Russia against the newly inspired Chinese aggres sion.

The last part on the program was the valedictory, which was assigned to Miss Amy Minister. Site delivered a very finely written essay on “The Heart of the Dominion” and took farewell of the school b iard, teachers and school mates in behalf of her class in a very touching way. The valedictory was as follows: THK HEART OF THE DOMINION. South of the great lumbering districts of Kt-watin, and west of the agricul tural province of Ontario lie the low. fertile plains of Manitoba. Dong, long ago these plains were covered with a thick coat of ieo. and these immense li. Ids of ice, one mile In thickness, moving toward the south west, ground and crushed beneath them the irregularities of the surface. Gradually, by this grinding, the rock masses were powdc red and disin tegrated into 'lie small particles of which the drift soil of Canada is chief ly composed. Thus it was that all the land once covered by the great Arctic glaziers was fitted for bearing tin- most valu able vegetable product on this earth. For it is a fact of geography that wheat Fe s not grow on our Northern hemis phere. except on glaciated soil. And hire almost in the heart of tile Dominion of Canada lies a province. 1 utilized before the dawn of recorded history, large enough if properly culti vated to feed the whole world. Gut so far removed from the ordinary routes of the white.man have these fields lain. and so little did their ap P: are.sec show their boundless possibil ities (P it few, ev« n in Canada, knew of Hi ir presence. indeed, the capital, Winnipeg, almost unknown a few years ago, is iuA.c with a growing population, rapidly rising to the tront rank among the commercial centres of the Western Hemisphere. Its name is known throughout Canada, and the t'nited States as well, and many A met leans have settled in the Hand of the .Maple Deaf, and there joined the Canadians in the occupation of raising wheat. Nowhere can a situation he found whose natural advantages promise so gnat a future as that which seems in sured to Manitoba. Many still think that the future greatness of Canada lies in tite eastern part— in the ocean-garden island Prince Edward, in the great valleys ot the St. John and the Sussex, and in the lands washed by the Hay of Ftmdy. They look upon the fortified city of k' nice, upon Montreal will .sc pros perity and beauty are worthy of her gre at st. Lawrence, upon the flourish ing province of Ontario, end her capita! Toronto, the Qu en City; and they think there lie tiie most commanding situations and the most favorable for 1 MISS AMV MINISTER.

These meas ureless meadows with tlieir rich soil commence hero ami stretch westward without interruption. Tile province is like a green sea. wln se waves of grasses ami flowers the suinnn r winds toss lint k ami forth. And on this vast plain, here and there a yellow patch shows some gigantic wheat field. Here American and Canadian live to gether, and in the common pursuit for get the differences of nationality. And why should it he so? Their ancestors fought side by side at Hastings, fought together for the sepulchre of the Savior. The horns “t th“ir common an cestors are scattered all the way from A- re to Jerusalem.

And around the door may the two flags be draped, united, folded within fold, and may “Their varying tints unite And form in Heaven's light One arch ot peace.” We Are Overstocked on Suits Coats __ r Owing to cold weather and the lateness of the season we have too many Suits and Coats on hand.

We appreciate what you have done to improve the High school, and we know that in the future you will manifest tile same in terest. and that you will see what im provements are needed in order that the school will Halt fall below* lilt* standard of other schools. 1’rin* ipal anti teachers: During our sojourn with you. as we have met you day .liter day. iuid felt your true sym pathy with all our student, interests, we have learned to know ami honor you. Although we shall meet you no longt r as scholars, yet we shall still regard you as friends, anti shall ever feel tie influence of your eilieieiit t -a* lung. It is with sorrow that, in the name of my class, thanking you for all past kindness, I i id you farewell. Juniors: Tonight, as we graduate from our dear school, we break the tits that have bound its together dur ing our rtlv it d da vs. lhit, us you lake our ulaees and our duties, the friend ship between us need not cease, and von will have the good will of our class as you journey through the last year of your course. As a precious legacy, tonight. we leave to you oui behaved school. Mnv you uphold its honor well, anti s!vi\t to do all you can for its wel fare. That you may have many suc cesses anti few failures, so that when y u stand where we stand tonight, you will have no regret mingled with your sorrow, is the sincere w ish of the class of 1907. Classmates: For the last time we stand togeth r as a class of High school students. The farewell word must be spoken, and our sorrow, that it must lie so mingled with awe as we realize that we stand with unbroken ranks. Our lives, hither running in the same paths, now separate, and each of us. tomorrow, starts upon a new path, when* the landmarks are not familiar. Whether we stumble or fall in this new country, or whether success follows our steps, we may rest assured that the sympathy and interests of our class mates will go with us all the way, and that we will rejoice nr sorrow together as the case may be. As tt guiding thought in our future lives, let us bear this in mind: This above all. to thine own self be true. \nd it must follow as the night the day. Thou can®' not then be false to any man.” If we weep this in view, I do not fear that we shall wander from the path of right which we have tried to follow hitherto.

BATES' NEW CAPTAIN. Ralph A. Wilder of Norwell, Mass., Elected Captain for 1303. Lewiston, Me., June 13.—(Special).— At a meeting of the baseball men in Hathorn hall this noon Ralph A. Wil der*, of Norwell, Mass., was elected to captain the team next year. That Wilder was the man for this po sition lias been shown by his work dur ing ills three seas* ns on the Baten ’Var sity nine. He is a man who knows ev ery rudiment of the game ami is a faithful worker. Regular at his High school lie was the pitcher on the school team, besides being a good in- and out fielder in any position. On entering Hates, Wilder figured at once as a promising man for baseball by the game he put up in the annual Freshman-Sophomore game. He easily made the 'Varsity the next spring as short stop and lias held that position, with tlie exception of a few games at second, during his course. As a summer baseball man Wilder lias an enviable reputation; in the sum mer of mil lie played on the Gardiner team of the Trolley League, the team which won the championship: during tlie next summer of liiOfl he played on tlie Riddtford team, which also won the Stale championship. He will lay on the same team this year, together with Johnson. Stone and Fridges. As a basketball player Wilder has distinguished himself, being captain of bis High school''team and also of his class team at Bates in his Freshman year. Owing to a weak ankle received from a sprain lie dropped basketball af ter his Freshman year. This same an kle prevented liis playing football, a game at which he has done good work. Wilder will have the support and good will of every Rates man and will also have some good material with which to start his team next season. Although Johnson. Bowman. Wight and Rogers are to leave this June, still with such a coach as Itoyce Purington and such a captain as Wilder, Kates should have a team that will not only win second place, but should make a iliard try for tlie state championship of I 1908.

Features of t'ne Day’s Dealing in All the Leading Stocks. Now York, June 13.—The apathy of the stock market became extreme today ami reached a stage of absolute stagnation in the afternoon. Dealings were littie more than half as large as yesterday. Even the professional traders desisted from their futile efforts to effect any move ment of prices. There was nothing in the news that induced any operations in stocks either on the buying or the sell ing aide. Some admonitory Influence to wards abstention from operations U found in the money outlook. The conviction is growing that special care will l.»e required to meet the Julv 1st requirements without a damaging pinch in money resources. Weakness in the London copper market was an influence in this market today, helping to keep the copper industrials heavy in tone. Two small failures in tin* conclusion of the London stock market settlement and a failure on the Philadelphia Stock Ex change. with some sensational features, helped to deaden the interest in stocks. The local tractions were subjected to a brisk attack, based on reports of declin ing earnings and on talk of an inquisition into affairs to be expected from the com ing public utilities commission for New York state. Subscription warrants for new' stocks of the Northwestern Pacifies made some sharp declines, reinforcing the pessimistic views expressed bv the chair man of the board of the Great Northern over the credit outlook of the railroad The day's changes, small as they are, are quite generally declines, evidencing tho heavy undertone of the dull market.

And so it is that Old Home Week is an institution of celebrations and i u lna I official welcomes has not lieen i success here In Maine. We doubt ,cry much if it can be made a last ng success in Massachusetts or clse vhere, and yet such plans as Mas sachusetts is making do ti" harm and nay do much good. Certainly the idea if eel 'beating Old Home Week here in tt.line lias resulted in many centennial ■edebrati ms by towns. In an increased lumber of family and school reunions, n special meetings by the Grange or ;anictations and the churches, and in i any such occasions, helpful and in cresting both to the communities luniselvcs and to their summer vis tors. In this respect the old Home ivek idea is a success and will un ioiihtedly l>e perpetuated, but the at eiiipt to celebrate it in the large cities ould not from the nature of things be he success that the promoters of the dan hoped for. If you have any $10,000 bills among he loose change in your pocket it will e well to dispose of them without de ty. Uncle Sam has just called in all utst.indiug $10,000 bills in the hope of otling a clue to the enterprising gen lenwu who recently stole $17,3.000 from lie Chicago sub-treasury. No fewer han 14 bills of the $ln.000 denomination •ore among the money lost at Chicago, ut as the then has probably not found any easy thing to break bills of that fnomination, it seems very unlikeiv aat the government will eateli him in I Ills manner. I. Mr. Davis and the Somerset Railroad Refcate. The Waterville Sentinel, which drops easily from argument to epithet, ac cuses the Kennebec Journal of “lying about the tax rebates,” in stating that Mr. Cyrus \V. Davis supported the bill in favor of the Somerset extension in the Legislature of 1903 of which he was a member. It says: “The Journal is well aware that Mr. Davis had nothing whatever to do with the matter and did not support the bill nor assist Mr. Haines. The whole thing is simply a part of the Journal’s regular plan of campaign, which con sists in misrepresenting everything concerning its opponents.” On September 5, 1906, the Journal asked of Mr. Davis, who was then a candidate for the highest office in the gift of the people of Maine, to answer, categorically, the following questions: 1. Were you in your seat in the House of Representatives when the bill in favor of the Somerset extension re ceived its unanimous passage? 2. Did you have any conversation wi'h the promoters of this measure, or with their attorneys, prior to its pass age'.' 3. Were you present at any part of the hearing on this measure before the railroad committee? ■i. Did you at any time interpose any objection to it prior to the opening of tlie present campaign? It was more than nine months ago that the foregoing questions were asked, and we are still waiting for Mr. Davis’ answers. The only response we got was through the columns of the Sentinel which called us “a nagging cur,” informed us that Mr. Davis re fused to lie catechized by the Journal, and that it was “none of our business,” anyway. We 1 togged to differ from Mr. Davis. Inasmuch as be was at the time the rebate in aid of the Somerset Railroad extension was granted a servant of the State and in the pay of the State and was moreover, at the time’ tin- above questions were asked, seeking the highest office in the gift of the State we felt that all the citizens of Maine, including the more than 50.000 readers of t lie Journal, had a perfect right to know his record upon this and every other public question. We sub mit that the foregoing questions are not ones to be answered by the hired editor of Mr. Davis, but by Mr. Davis himself. If tin' very general under standing that Mr. Davis assisted flen. Haines in support of this measure, that lie agreed with counsel to do what could for it: that in- was present with its friends at tlie hearing before the railroad committee, and that he was present and voted for it on its passage through the luiu.se is ail wrong, and tlie statement of the Sentinel that he “did not support the bill” is correct, then it is peculiarly appropriate that the fact should be clearly stated to tlie public over Mr. Davis’ own SIGXATURK. We do not think that even the Senti nel will claim I hat he ever opposed it. There is no p-conl that iiis voice was raised against it in the committee, or in the house, where the record shows that it wits accorded a UNANIMOUS pass \usly stated."—Watcrville Senti nel. This is as true today as it was when Alexander Hamilton uttered it years ago. So long as we imported the arti cles we used from abroad, foreign pro ducers having an undisputed monopoly of our trade were able to exact their ow n prices. When, however, wo had brought about under the protective system the production of tile same arti cles in American factories and on American farms the foreign producer no longer dominated the situation and prices fell to the fair basis referred to by Mr. Blaine. An excellent example of this sugar. When we imported practically all we used from abroad, the retail price was 10 cents a pound. When, however, under tlie fostering care of protection, we had developed this industry in the United States to the extent that it. in a large measure supplied tiie home demand for sugar, the price fell to about live cents a pound. What is true of sugar is true of nearly every other commodity which we were formerly importing. The so-called high prices of today, which represent the increased incomes of American workers in the factories and on the farms, are exceedingly low prices when compared with those for merly exacted by foreign producers upon any articles in the sale of which they once monopolized the Ameri can market. Home competition has alwavs operated to reduce tiie exac tions nf foreigners. What we call high prices today are merely the prices which enable American farmers and wage-workers to secure a fair and lib eral return for their toil. If the products of the faetories and the farms brought less il would mean that the farmers and wage-workers would he getting less for their labor, with a cor responding reduction in their standards of living. Cheap prices, mean cheap la bor, ami cheap labor means less of the comforts of life to the great army of workers who toil in the factories and on tiie farms, and who constitute, at all times, the backbone of American pros perity. This idea that the Dinglcy tariff is responsible for all business advance ment, robs the Almighty of the credit "f all of the natural blessings which he has bestowed upon us and robs mankind of tip- credit of having ac complished anything for itself by industry, frugality and enterprise. Watcrville Sentinel. c The people of Maine know that they ate enjoying today, under the Dinglcy tariff law, the greatest period of prosperity in their shistory. This is true of our wage workers, of our 80, 1100 farmers, of our merchants and of ail classes of our citizens who partici pate in any way in tiie business life anil enterprise in the community. These men all know that under tiie Wilson law, when tiie Democratic party was lost in power, wages and I lie prices of farm products touched Hie lowest point since (lie close of the civil war, and our merchants and other business men shared in the universal Impression occasioned by the universal liard times that continued up to the Lime that the present Dingley tariff aw went into effect. These are facts till fresh in tiie memories of our itizens, and cannot be winked out of ;ight by any amount of theorizing. rersona I (Notes.

Judge Symontls of Portland, who is now succeeded by ox-Governor Connor, has served 17 years as president of the Maine Unitarian conference. A South' Deer Isle correspondent says: "I think we will have to go hack to lsir. to find anything like the cold we are having bore this spring. I have heard my father say that there was frost, ice anil snow every month in that year. The only crops raisetl were pota toes and barley." Howtloin’s nine certainly smashed til! the records this spring. Not content with winning the Maine college cham pionship without losing a single game in the series, it elosetl the season in a blaze of glory by defeating Harvard. The Boston School of Technology hits, since the year lsss, each June taken a class in civil engineering for practical work to some desirable loca tion. Four seasons they have been in New York state, several times in Pennsylvania anti New Hampshire, anti this is the seventh summer that they have come to Maine. Twice they have been to Machias. twice to East Maehias, once to Chorryfleltl and Ells worth. This year they go to Prof. Dwight 1’ortt r's elaborate sef of pri vate camps on the shore of Rangeley Lake. Verona's mispiekel mine is soon to be worked. Mr. Heath, the owner, has concluded negotiations with a party of New "ijy capitalists wherehv they se cured control of fifty acres of the land and the right of purchase within two years. Mispiekel is a silver white col ored mineral which has been found at various places on Verona and in the tow n of Bueksport, I hough never yet in paying tpiantities. This deposit which Mr. Heath has just bomb'd, while known to him and others interested in the property with him, has been kept tpriet and little lias Itecn known con cerning it. Experts who have ex-am itv'd the surface indications of the mine say that unquestionably the vein is of sufficient size to prove a. paying one. The common name of this mineral is arsenical pyrites, as from it is secured the white arsenic from which paris green is manufactured. The arsenic is secured from the mineral by roasting the ore and confining Hie gas which arises therefrom. This gas makes the poison. Afler a disquisition on tho value of Kray liorsos as compared with horses of other colors, tho Parklnirst writer stately notes tlint “Von may change a farmer's religion or polities, make him think he is rich and handsome, coax his wife to run away with you or sell him a dog, but you will never make him think a gray horse is not a jewel. I read somewhere reeently that gray horses were not ur> to the standard or words to that effect. T never was so astonished in my life. I have always thought and do now. that gray or white horses were the handsomest, toughest breed on the planet. Tho celebrated Arabian horses are white or dapple gray. Famous generals in all wars hove ridden white or iron pray horses and this type of horses is used to draw the banl wagons in the street parades. John f*. Squire Co., the great packing eompnny always select Pert-heron horses not so much for the color hut because their feet will stand traveling on the pavements better than any draft breed. Tt is said that Joan of Arc rotle a milk white horse and St. John the revel a tor saw a white horse in Heaven (kev. R. 21.

INEXPENSIVE FEEDING Justfood Costs Less Than a Cent a Weal for a Little Baby. The most economical of nil baby foods Is Justfood, no matter what size Is purchased, but when the large size costing $1.50 is bought the food when prepared costs less than a cent a meal tor a little baby. A three months’ old baby can be fed justfood for T’ic a day, including the cost of the milk, while other foods cost from 9c. to l»c. a day. Although Justfood may cost a trifle more than condensed milk or ordinary cor’3 milk alone, yet this is not a point worthy of consideration when one realizes the fact that babies living upon Justfood are rarely sick and grow to be strong, sturdy children with full promise of health and vigor. Our best physicians have prescribed it for years. Justfood is inexpensive, and no mother could afford when weaning a little one. to use anything else. Justfood is sold by most druggists at f.Oc., $1.00 and $1.50. Sample package free by mail. Justfood Co., 49 N. Franklin St., Syracuse, X. Y.

Caldwell in November to kill Steunen berg, why didn't you do it?” demanded Richardson. "We did make an attempt to, but it was not successful.” Simpkins, started for home about Dec. 1, 1'jOTi. and Orchard said lie had not seen him since. While in Caldwell 0 Simpkins helped him make a bomb. "Was it the bomb which killed Steunenberg?” "It was the same powder. I later changed the casing from wood to tin.” Orchard also left Caldwell after the failure of the attempt with Simpkins. Tie telephoned Iiill Masterly of Silver City, asking him if he did not want to come over to Caldwell and "take part in a contract.” Masterly declined, say ing he was too busy at home. Orchard then went to Salt Make to get a man named Shoddy to help him. Shoddy, however, couldn’t be found. Returning to Caldwell alone. Orchard went to the Saratoga Hotel, where lie became ac quainted with the employes. Me made no effort to conceal himself. Richardson asked why it was that with plenty of opportunity to kill Rtejnenl r rg on one of the governor's trips to his sheep ranches. Orchard had decided to use a bomb in the city. "Well. 1 got disgusted with myself at not bring idle to get him, so I fin ally derided to use the homh and get rid of the thing and get aivay,” said Orchard. Richardson Jumped over the details of placing the bomb at the Steunenberg residence. The cross-examination digressed to a plan Orchard conceived to ride on a train with Steunenberg and set the bomb In a grip under the governor’s seat. With the paraphernalia all ready, Orchard got aboard the train one day. but Steunenberg missed it. Tho fact that others In the car would have been killed did not appeal to him. Returning to Orchard's actions after the assassination of Steunenberg, Richardson wanted to know if the wit ness had not deliberately gone to his room and scattered powder and plaster of Paris about tho place. "No, sir, I did not." He said he went back to the hotel with the Idea of cleaning up some cayenne pepper, potash and acid in his grip. "What were you doing with the pepper "I had it to put or. my stove when necessary so as to prevent dogs taking lip my trail. The examination again digressed to show that while he was in Spokane. Orchard called on Attorney Fred Mil ler. now associated with the defence, and employed him to sue the railroad for detaining his trunk, which had been lost In transit. Orchard made no attempt to leave Caldwell the night of the explosion, hut slept as usual at the Saratoga hotel. The next day. Sunday, he wes suspected. Monday he was arrested. Tho first attorney Orchard saw was Jeb Sullivan of Denver. Sullivan sug gested that Orchard have a local at torney and wired Miller to come and be reached Caldwell something more than a week after the arrest. Orchard remained in the Caldwell jail If. days and was then brought to the penitentiary in Hoise. Richardson here attempted to show the coercion of Orchard through soli tary confinement. "Where were you put when you reached the penitentiary?” he was asked. "In the new cell house." "It was a steel cage with solid walls.” “Were vou advised as to your rights about being confined in the peniten tiary?” "No. sir.” "You were not allowed to speak to anyone?" “Yes, sir, I could speak to the men in Hie next cell and to the warden." "Who was the man next door?” “Bob Webster.” "A condemned murderer?" "Yes." "And for the most part the guard outside your cell sat silent?" “No, sir, he spoke a good deal lo the men next ilutir and lie spoke to me often.” Orchard said his cell was five by seven feet, flq could read books from the library but not newspapers. “After you had been in confinement in days, who first came to see you?" "Mr. McPartWnd.” "Did you know him—that he was a Pinkerton?" "Not until that time.” Orchard was taken to the clerk's office and saw McPartland there. "Did McPartland talk to you about your past life?” “Yes, sir.” “And his past life?” "Yes. sir." "Did he first talk of the Bible?" “No. we did talk later about the Bible.” “And McPartland told you about j King David, who was a murderer, had j repented and become a man after God’s own heart?” “And about ivhat a bad man St. Paul ■was?” •■Yes.” "And about David killing Criah and ft BtealUn his wife?" “Ke told me David had been a mur derer and had gotten forgiveness.” Here at last the heart of the criminal was touched—the thick armor was pierced. Tears welled to Orchard's eyes. He shook them off and wiped the stains away with his handkerchief. Hut Orchard did not hesitate with his re plies—they came as promptly as ever and he soon regained control of him self when Richardson plunged into a line of questioning, intended to develop what M'Parlland had told Orchard concerning the story of the Molly Maguires in the anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania. Orchard said McPartland had told him a good deal about the lawlessness of tile Molly Maguires. In discussing the Molly Maguires, Richardson asked about “Kelley the Hum." as a man who had committed many murders, and had turned states evidence. Orchard said McPartland had told him a subscription of $700 or $SO0 had been taken up for Kelley who had been allowei| to leave the country. Orchard said that when lie was first introduced to McPartland the detective wanted to know if the prisoner believ ed in Ood. “I had been thinking about such things.” said Orchard. “McPartland also said he believed I had something to do with the murder of Steunenberg.” “Didn't McPartland tell you that up to the time lie was sent to the anthra cite coal fields, there had been but three murders, but after he became a member of the Miners Union and the Molly Maguires, there were 20 or more?” “Now sir——— Before the witness was allowed to answer the question however. there came a vehement protest from Atty. Hawley for the state, who declared that no latitude of cross-examination gave counsel the right to put an imag inary conversation into the mouth of a witness. Richardson in reply declared that Or chard "had been fitted for this exam ination. was an accomplice arid a mas ter criminal, but was now trying to help the state. “If there had been influence or in ducement as to securing this evidence we have a right to inquire into it,” he concluded. Judge Wood said he would allow the widest latitude. “Didn't McPartland tell you that every man of the Molly Maguires, who turn'd state’s evidence, was allowed to go free?” “I drift know that he did. Some of them escaped.” “Did he promise you $700 or $S00 if you contosscd and involved others?" “No, si«, he did not.” “Did you belong to the church when vou ran away with another man’s wife and sold short weight cheese in Canada?” asked Richardson. "Xn, sir.” Orchard said XIrPartland told him he was in a position to do the state a great deal of good and that the state usually acted fair with its witnesses. "Did he tell you your attorney had deserted you and that the state could use you either way it wanted to?" “X'd, sir.” “You hadn't given orders not to ad mit your attorney, had you?” “.Vo. sir.” Soutl street, Richmond, Ind., says: "I ha* attacks of grip every winter for aboil ten years.

Reports of Finding ot Othei Bodies Officially Denied. I Federal Officials Investigating Con earning Disaster. s Norfolk, Va., June 13—The body ol Coxswain Robert H. Dodson of the bat tleship Minnesota’s ill-fated launch, 1 which, with its 11 occupants, six tnid shipmen and live seamen, went to the 1 bottom of Hampton Hoads in the dark 1 ness of Tuesday night, was found float ing in the Roads today and tonight re ports were circulated but almost im 1 mediately denied that the other bodies 1 had been recovered. An orderly from one of the ships of the Atlantic fleet stated at Old Point Comfort that the bodies of the other 10 men drowned had been taken to the Norfolk navy yard. Admiral Thomas ol the fleet, however, sent a wireless mes sage to shore denying that the bodies had been found and a similar denial was made at the navy yard. II now seems to be accepted in naval circles that the little launch was run down by a coal barge shortly after the frail boat carrying the 11 men left Dis covery landing. It was learned here today that Com modore William 11. Evans’ yacht the Chilliowee, with a party of P.altimore ans. was anchored off the Exposition grounds ami according to members of the party, cries of the drowning mid shipmen aial sailors were heard coming over the water, though the party at that time believed that the noises were made by jubilant parties returning from the army and navy ball. Admiral Emory will, as soon as some tangible evidence is found that the launch was run down by a coal barge, call the regular court of inquiry re quired by the naval regulations and a thorough investigation will be made. The sessions of the court of inquiry will convene on one of the battleships now in Hampton Roads. The federal steam boat inspectors are investigating. A report filed by Captain Carpenter of the Powhatan Guards, composing the Jamestown Exposition police force, says that whistles, as if signals of warning from the Minnesota’s launch were heard off the Exposition grounds between midnight and 1 A. M. Tuesday and the report expresses the belief that the launch was struck by a coal barge, the launch being clear of all responsi bility for the accident. United States supervising inspector of steam vessels Uhler arrived front Washington today and in company with Col.
