J„ Oct. 23.— Mrs. Jane Gibson, pig raiser and self-styled eye witness of tlie double murder of Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall and Mrs. Eleanor Reinhardt Mills, tonight said that she wanted an op portunity to confront Mrs. Hall and challenge her to ray that she was not present at the slaying of her husband and did not return later und arrange bis clothes and glasses. Mrs. llall, through her attorney, has emphatically denied that she was on the Phillips farm on the night that her husband was shot to death with his choir singer. Mrs. Gibson explained that it was more than mere curiosity which prompted her to return to the i’iiil lips farm after she alleges, she wit nessed the murders. She cla'med that in her original statement to the authorities she explained that she lost one of her moccasins, that it was while she was hunting for it that she saw tlie double slaying and rode away on her mule at once. Not until she reached home, Mrs. Gibson said, did she realize that tlie presence of her footwear on the farm near the scene of the murder, might lead investigators to connect her with the crime. She immediately sad dled her mule, she said, and return ed to see a woman in a grey coat, bending over the body of the slain rector. The authorities, who were report ed to have found the rector's watch before Clifford Hayes was arrested only to be released later, tonight re ported that they were seeking a Negro who offered for sale a watch resembling that taken from the ice tor's body, lie is now believed to be in Philadelphia. The authorities said they had questioned Charles Anderson, a Ne gro who had had the watch in his possession for a time. He said that lie had held it for several days in payment of a gambling debt, but that the Negro who had given it to him later reclaimed it and disappeared. Anderson said he did not know his name. Deputy Attorney General Wilbur G. Mott, who lias been conducting the investigation for one week, was non- committal tonight on the evidence uncovered to date. It is expected that lie will carry the fruit of his inves tigation to Attorney General Mc Cran during tjie first of this week and that the two then will confer on what action will be taken in the case. GIVES REASONS WHY FIRST FISHERMEN'S RACE WAS “NO RASE” Gloucester, Muss., Oct. 29 George H. Peoples, chairman of the international sailing committee in j llio recent international fishing j schooner races, off this port, in a statement tonight defended the com mittee's action in refusing to allow the race between the Henry Fold and the Bluonose on Saturday, Oct. 21, to stand as official. He said that when the two boats disregarded tlie com- j mittee’s orders to return to the start- i ing line and proceeded to race around the course “the committee came to unanimous understanding that the start would not constitute a race.” Krcplaining why the committee, on its official boat followed the schoon- ers, he said: “The decision up to the committee was whether it was to have an open brawl with the racers and to break up 1 the race by force. The committee decided that it would be inadvisable I to get into a wordy contest with the masters of the two racing vessels and that if they had disregarded our signals and our message, they could, on their own responsibility continue j on their course. i “It was decided that if tlie vessels were determined to continue the course should be patrolled in order to safeguard these vessels from any i possibility of collision with the many crafts which were attempting to close j down on them in order to gain a bet- j ter view. “Tlie committee boat then ated as a patrol and was kept busy clearing the course of otli- vessels. Xo ofti- cial times were taken at any of the turning marks and when the course had been practically covered by the two schooners, the committee re turned to their anchorage inside the harbor." He said Captain Waiters, of the Bluenose, made the statement that he j considered it was a race, although he I was the loser, but that Captain Wal- ters had no voice in the mtter. “If the American members of the sailing committee had decided it was a race after the Henry Ford had won,” he continued, “it would have been a dishonorable act on their part, as by so doing the; would have been breaking their word with the Cana dian representatives of their own committee.” «r V 'LACK OF CARS FELT IN UPWARD TREND BUSINESS Rail Loadings, How ever, Close to Peak During Past Week Grain and Coa! Movements Re stricted But Needs of Con sumers Being Generally Met —Still Output Higher—Farm Product Shipments Irregu lar—Money Market Contin ues Steady New York, Oct. 2D—(By A. P.) No change in the trend toward bet ter business has been apparent in industrial and commercial circles during the past week. Railway car loadings remain close to the peak an.l plainly would be greater if the roads could furnish and move a larger number of cars. Thus the excess in the demand for freight cars as com pared with supply on October 15, was according to the American Rail way Association, 156,000 cars. The effect naturally is to restrain the movement of certain kinds of traf fic, such as giuin, and to restrict the mining of coal. Nevertheless, this situation is not as yet extreme and is considered to have its compensations. Steel pro ducts are moving in an amount ap proximately equal to current produc tion and all essential needs of con sumers arc reported as being met. Soft coal production is slightly high er, finally having risen above the 10,0u0,000 tons a week level, and the slowing down in the grain movement has had a supporting effect on pric es. Some well posted quarters con sider that the transportation situa tion is scarcely more difficult Ilian is usually the case when a heavy sea sonal movement of freight is under way. As for the steel industry, output is continuing to run slightly above 70 per cent of capacity and mills appear to have accumulations of orders on their books sufficient for a number of months ahead. The scarcity mar ket created by the strike, still shows signs of disappearing. Coke and pig iron prices are lower and the prem iums offered for the prompt delivery of steel products have about disap peared. Railroad buying is being maintained and rail mills are already working on the orders booked prior to the Oc,toher t increase in prices. With respect to farm products, (lie movements of the week were somewhat irregular. Cotton pushed (Continued on Page 5—Col. 8) Real Economy in Republican Regime Says G. O. P. Chairman Washington, Oct. 23.—John T. Ad ams. chairman of the Republican na tional committee, said in a statement tonight that his party had consistent ly practiced economy since coining into power, that among other things it had reduced the public debt $1,165,042,731 since larch 4. 1321, and that during flat time it had dropped 73,312 em ployes from the public payroll. The Republican chairman asserted that is a record of public econ omy which lias never been equalled.’’ “If this program of public economy so well begun is continued," said Mr. Adams, “it is necessary to elect a Re publican Congress in order to maintain tlie co-operation between the executive and legislative branches of the govern ment.’’ DOUBLE KILLING FOLLOWS HOLD-UP Union town. Pa., Oct. 29.—A rifle bul let, fired as the result of an alleged fifty cent holdup, took the lives of two men here today. Jake Miller, traced by bloodhounds, is in jail at Point Ma rion. charged with the shooting. Police say Joseph Brown held up Miller and secured JO cents. Miller found Brown inter in a card game at New'Genovs, and fired a bullet. The ball passed through Brown's heart and continued on through Edgar Blair's head, killing both instantly.

Oct. 29.—The Times corre I spondent, describing the situation in Italy in a despatch from Chiasso, Sv.it zerland, under today's date, and ad mitting the difficulty cf obtaining ac j curate information, says it seems that j the Fascisti have been able to carry i out their plans. Everywhere they are mobilized and have instructed the lo cal prefects to transfer to them their authority. The railroad stations, the post, telegraph and other public build ings. have been occupied, particularly in the towns in Central Italy, with a view to cutting communications and i isolating the capital. From many centers in Tuscany con tingents of Fascisti have started for 1 Rome and it is rumored that several thousand were within a short distance of the gates of Rome on Saturday. Tt appears that there have been no con flicts or bloodsheel except at Cremona. Almost everywhere the officers of the army, whose sympathy with the Fas cisti movement is well known, have treated the Fascisti with friendliness and have avoided the use of force, vbleh explains the success of the ris ing. i The intervention of the king, who j wished to avoid bloodshed and civil I war and refused to sign the decree for a state of siege, adds the corrcspond (Continued on Page 5—Col. 7) s New York Dept. Stores Report Fine Business in September New York, Oct. 23.—Department stores in the New Tovk Federal Re serve Rank district did more business in September this year than in the same month of either of the three pre ceding years, the federal reserve agent reported today.

J‘J—(Bv A. P.)—At taching the theory of the ••living wage” as a basis for determining wagfs of railroad workers, the pub lic and railroad groups of the rail way Labor Board in an opinion made public tonight declared, such a course j "it carried to its legitimate conclu j sion would wreck every railroad in the T'nited States and if extended to j other industries would carry them in to communistic ruin.” The opinion in the form of a re joinder to a dissenting opinion filed by A. O. Wharton, labor member, in I the recent decision increasing the pay of maintainence of way employes two cents an hour, declared if em i ployes were granted a 72 to 75 cents minimum wage for common labor witli corresponding differentials for other classes, an increase of 125.7 per cent in the nation’s railroad wage bill would be necessary. This, the opinion said, would add $3,122,952, 3S7 to the annual payroll bringing it to $5,539,445,993, which would mean, it added, an annual deficit to the car riers of $2,241,639,518. Even if the 4S-cent minimum wage requested by maintainunee of way men were granted and corresponding differentials were made for other classes of employes, the opinion said, an increase of 50.45 per cent in wa ges would be necessary, adding $1, 249,390,994 to the annual wage bill of the roads, bringing it up to $3, 725,884,540 thus forcing the carriers to face an annual deficit of $378, 078,125. The phrase “living wage” was termed in the opinion as “a bit of mellifluous praseolog.v, well calcula ted 1o deceive the unthinking,” if the contentions were that the board should establish a ‘‘living wage” the majority would readily accede to the proposition, the opinion said, and as a matter of fact, the board in this instance as in all others, has grant ed a living wage. But the abstract, elusive thing called “the living wage” confessedly based upon a makeshift and a guess, cannot receive the sanc tion of this board. Because it would be utterly impractical and would not be “just and reasonable” as the law demands. Mr. Wharton's dissenting opinion I and the supporting opinion in reply are attached to the formal decision increasing the pay of maintenance of way employes two cents an hour, j establishing a minimum ranging from 25 to 37 cents. The United Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employes, held a strike order affect ing 4on,ooo men in abeyance last July after the board had reduced usages, pending a request for an in crease based on the contention that the costs of living had advanced and wages in other instances had been j raised. When the case came up mainten ance of way officials asked the board to subscribe to the principle of the ‘‘living wage” based on a budget of what was required for an average family of five persons to live in health and reasonable comfort. A i majority of the board refused to sub i scribe to this principle, asserting that, j the transportation act called for es j tablishing a “just and reasonable” 'vage and that a just and reasonable wage was in effect a living wage. T!ie Maintenance of vray organiza tion asked the board to establish I minimum rates of pay of 48 cents an hour to replace rates then in effect, ranging from 23 to 35 cents. After a deadlock of several days, the board made public its decision formally handed down today increasing rates of pay two cents an hour, and adding about $20,000,000 to the railroad pay roll. j Body of Italian Found Slain in Swamp Near Belmont Cambridge, Mass.. Oct. 29.—The body of a man said by the police to be an Italian, with the throat slashed, iwas found today in a swamp off "Huron avenue, "near the Belmont town line. The police expressed the belief that the man had been mur dered elsewhere and the body taken to this place. There were no marks of identifies tion. That robbery was not the mo tive for the supposed murder, ap j peared to be indicated by the finding j of money in the clothing.

GASOLINE FUMES KILL LITTLE BOY Somerville, Mass., Oct. 29—Three school children, learning today that Adam Cuggino, an 11-year-old play mate, was missing, went to an empty gasoline tank car standing on the Boston Maine tracks on a Hiding here and found the child's lifeless body. They remembered that on Sat urday they had seen Cuggino playing on the top of'the car and, as they walked away, had heard him cry for help, but thought ho was joking. The child had entered the tank by a ladder and had been overcome by I !)o fumes from a small quantity of gasoline at the bottom. FOUR BOYS DIE IN EXPLOSION OF GASOLINF TANK NEW MURDERS PUZZLE POLIGE NEW YORK CITY Woman Enticed to Roof Office Building and Hurled to Death Body of Man Riddled With Bullets Found in Front Luth eran Church Marks on Body Indicate Fight Before j Being Slain—Brother-in-law Woman Says May Have Tak en Own Life j New York, Oct. 29.—Two r» w I murders, one of a young woman, J who was lured to the roof of an of fice building, ihe police believe, and then hurled to her death, and tiie other of a man whose body was lound, bullet riddled and wrapped in a burlap bag. and left in the gut ter in front of St. Paul’s Lutheran church, are being investigated by the police tonight. The identity of the victims has not been learned. Aaron Swatberg, who Is employed 1 during the day as a watchman, told the police that lie was rising to go j to work today, when he saw a dark object hurtle past his window, strike several clothes lines and land in a court yard which separates the house he lives from a seven story office building. It was still dark, he said, and he j could not see the yard from his •>in i dow. On his way to work, he found the body of a young woman in the j yard. Detectives'investigating her death, found that the office building was locked and that the door leading to the roof was barred. Finger prints of the young woman, however, w. re found on the coping of the roof, in dicating she had engaged in a struggle before she was finally hurl ed to her death. The woman was identified by Frank Kempler, as his wife. The po lice were told by Keniplar’s brother that she had been melancholy recent b' and expressed the belief that she might have committed suicide as it had been planned to take tier to a hospital for a mental examination. Detectives are investigating the mur der theory. Examination of the man’s body found in the burlap bag disclosed a broken right shoulder and other signs of injury, and led police to the belief that he was slain after a fight. Except for tracks of an auto, in which it was believed the body was removed from the actual scene of the slaying to the spot where it was found, police found no clue which might lead to the Identity of the slayer or slayers. The only possible means of identi fication found in clothing on the body were a New York tailor’s label and a laborer’s tag, issued by the New York Foundation Company. The body was tatooed with a letter “F.” on the left arm and with the words “Armore Di Made!” on the right arm. STEAM LIGHTER ASKING FOR HELP Boston, Oct. 29.—A radio message from the coast guard cutter Acush net picked up here today said that the steam lighter Lizzie D. A., was calling for assistance.

ort3fl.mon.3t W. L. BONNEY. Treasurer of State, had war-time draft experience, that work necessary in the army should be classified by occupations in order that the classification of men called to the colors could he expedited and their assignments he based on the similarity of their civil training and military work they were best fitted to perform. It was also believed that the classification of men should login when they were called by local draft boards and not await their arrival at mobilization centers. Another point brought out was the difficulty of dealing in the army with men of low mental caliber. A sug gestion was made that the regulations should prevent such men from being called for active military service. The conferees were in hannony also as the desirability of using men available only Tor limited military service from the beginning of the operation of the draft law and not deferring such cases for later treat ment. To meet the problem of dealing with limited service and occupational specialists the suggestion was made that clearing pool centers for each of these groups might be established and that the excess from the various local boards could be turned over to these pools for further assignment. The plan would work especially well in distribution of specially qualified occupational specialists, it was held. UNITY Dr. r. \V. Whitaker is a business visitor in Bangor.

Hope to Take Debating Team on Cross Country Trip to Pacific Coast Debating activities will begin at Colby college very early this week, when the first year class in argu ment and debating, numbered over fifty students, will be required to present public debates in the college chapel, while a similar class among j the women of the college will be re quired to present public debates at I a little later date. In addition, a gen I oral invitation to all students in the college will b» given to try out for the intercollegiate debating teams, I and from present indications more than twenty five men will respond to the fust call. All told, more than i 150 students will, within a matter of weeks now, be preparing briefs and delivering debates, i The chapter of Pi Kappa Delta, the national honorary forensic soci j cty of which Colby is the only east ern representative, is the one organi i nation whose chief work is that of fosteVing all the public speaking in terests of the institution. A meeting of the members of this organization veil! first be called at which the pro gram for the ycaf will be carefully considered, then will come the first meeting of the? Colby Debating So i cicty at which the officers will be elected and the general program ap 1 proved and intered upon. i Tin's year regularly scheduled in tcr-class debates w ill lie held, one between the sophomores and juniors and one between the juniors and the seniors. This year too, for the first i time, the women of the college yvil! undertake intercollegiate debating. Tn speaking of intercollegiate de bating for the year, Professor Her bert C. T.ibhy, bead of the department of Public Speaking said: “Since cnir cross-country debate trip of last year, yvlien Colby’s team travelled more than 5,000 miles and defeated six out of eight colleges de bated. I liave received a great many letters asking for return debates as well as many letters from colleges ns far west as California, inviting Colby to joint debate. Ripon college, the members of whose team were so favorably impressed with the fine spirit of our Colby men when they visited tis last year, has written us a most appreciative letter, stating that a team representing Ripon is coming into Xew England and would like to debate Colby. Undoubtedly: our pleasant relations yy ith the T'ni versity of Maine and wit 11 Xew Hampshire State colRgo will be kept up. “I ran not yet state whether there will he an extensive eross-rountry trip this year or not. I hope that it may be possible as wo have some first class material here in college, hut the money necessary ,to finance such a trip is the real problem. The time is coming- when Colby should follow the practice of the western colleges, having each student pay a blanket tax, this tax to go to sup port the various important student organizations. With increasing em phasis being given the country over to debating, it seems a little out of joint with conditions as they should j be that the athletic interests of the college should receive so large a tax upon each student and the forensic interest nothing. With the gift of j the new Stadium which brings an in creased revenue to the Athletic As sociation. or should bring an increas ed revenue, it would seem as though a part of the old tax might now be diverted to the debating society. It it Is a possible thing T want to sec a Colby team go through to the Pa cific coast, and to this end I am working. This means that we would i debate a number of the larger col- j leges enroute.** I Forrest Alley of Bath was in Wa terville Saturday on business. Membership Contest for Railroad “Y” Close and Interesting—Blues Lead The membership drive of the Hail road Young Men's Christian Associ ation Is progressing and becoming hotly contested by both teams.

The contests threatens to be one of the hottest that has been waged here for a considerable length of time and during this week there will be a continual fight to gain the advan tage.

Told Wild Bullfrog Tele J'or 40 years alter Mark Twain I wrote liio story of the celebrated j jumping frog of Calaveras county, l California, no w liter had the temeri ty to suggest that there could be in any other part of the country bnll trogs comparable with those in the famous mother lode country. Recently, comments the Han Fran cisco Chronicle, some foolhardy j scribe from Oklahoma broadcast a story to the effect that Oklahoma bullfrogs were capturing and devour ing unwary chickens. The story "was a palpable attempt to discredit the Calaveras bullfrogs and has brought forth merited rebuke. A modest and essentially veracious Tuolumne county miner, commenting on the Oklahoma story, brands it ns a rank imitation of what really hap pened near Shawmut. Tuolumne county, just across the line from Cal I nveras county. He says a lot of Cal nveras bullfrogs were washed down into a creek in Tuolumne county and that shortly thereafter young ducks began to disappear. One duck, larger and wiser than the rest, permitted himself to be swallo\\ed all but Ins tail and legs, whereupon he started paddling and brought the bullfrog ashore. Thcre i after he made a regular business of catching bullfrogs in this man ner. The miner says he sold 150 frogs caught In this wav at $1.50 a dozen. He is training other ducks to hunt bullfrogs and contemplates giving up mining. It's a great country.

Radio Telegraphy Radio telegraphy was organized two years ago for I lie purpose of fur thering, through international ro operation, the systematic study of tins fundamental problems of radio com munication. Separate sections have been found for a number of different j countries, and the work of the Amori i can section has been in progress for over a year. Recently systematic measurements have been made nt rr ceiving stations in the United States j of the intensity of signals received I from various French stations, and by a continuance of those measurements it is expected that more comprehen 1 Rive knowledge will lie obtained of j the phenomena of radio transmission. A-meeting of the American section was held very recently, nt which various committees reported, Includ j ing the committee on the study of radio wave intensity, atmospheric disturbances, variations of radio "'ate direction, measurements of ra diations which cause interference, i and electron tubes. Particularly in j the ease of measurements of the In tensity of radio waves, it is important that international rooperation be pro i motfd, since it is only by frequent 1 •simultaneous measurements made j cooperatively by widely separated sending and receiving stations that accurate results may be obtained. —Scientific American.

Hallowell Epwortli League Wins Kennebec Hanner Hallowell has reason to Ik- proud of the showing mude at the melt ing of the Kennebec Valley Federa tion of Epwortli League at Richmond recently. Fifty went from Halloa ell, a trifle more than a third of the intire attendance of one hundred and forty six, coming from Augusta, Hallowell, Gardiner, Bowdolnham and Rich mond. Hallowell took the hanner easily on the basis of'llve points out of a possible six. The points were: Attendance upon Sunday evening services amount of money raised, at tendance upon the Federation num ber of business meetings anj hoc: a Ip j held, and number of new innateib added. The trip was made by two trucks and three private cars. A few went by train. Mrs. C. O. l’erry was elected treasurer of the Feder ation. Rev. O. O. ferry v.’aa its re tiring president. Louden Hill Pavilion Burned to the Ground About 3.30 A. M. Sunday morning it was found that the dance pavilion at Loudon Hill was in flames. Ihis building is not in Hallowcll proper, but just over the line in Farmingdale. No alarm was run in but Oscar Mc Gregor. who saw the flames, tele phoned to hire Chief Densmore, who was promptly on the spot. No alarm was rung in ami no apparatus was sent from Farmingdale. At first the flames seemed to threaten the property of Rev. Wil liam Helms and Mrs. Mary Seavey, but the wind changed direction so that the sparks blew toward the river. The condition of the building was hapeless when the fire was re ported, and it burned to the ground. It had not been used for some months, since the earlier part oT the summer just past. It was formerly the pro- 1 perty of Frank Leigh of Gardiner, 1 and was run first by him and later by his son. It is thought to have been the property of his widow, Mrs 1 Frank Leigh, at the time it was 1 burned, but that fact could not be 1 verified nor the exact amount of lamage or insurance. The piano had been removed, so j that the greatest loss is the fine hard r "ood floor, the hall above it being i i merely a light structure. The fire is c thought to have been the work of tramps. There is a rear entrance tnat tramps have occasionally made use of. The building that preceded this on the same site was burned some time ago, and there has been i fre vious Are in this same building, in all three on the same spot.

Two touchdowns, a tleld goal and a safety gives the story in brief. Much fumbling by Bangor caused its downfall. Salem made a steady march to wards the Bangor goal with a 15 yard run through center by Chau rette, who fumbled and recovered on Bangor's nine-yard line. *n lour plunges the ball was over, Salem failed on a try for goal. Another sTeady march by Salem, aided by penalties, was halted on Bangor’s 15 yard line, and then Cunningham drop-kicked a neat held goal from 23-yard line. A nice lor ward pass from Cunningham to Chaurette, who ran 15 yards for a touchdown resulted in Salem's scor ing a second touchdown. Salem's last points resulted from a bad f'_m ble by Bond of a punt which rolled behind Bangor's goal, where it was recovered for a safety.

FAST (Continued from Page One) rut. has rendered futile nnv resistance and marked the capitulation of the j authorities of the state to the Insur- gent s. Mussolini’s declaration in the Popolo j D'ltalia, demanding a purely Fascist! i government says: "It must he under stood in Rome that up to this moment, a solution of tne crisis can he obtain e l within the borders of the constltu- j tion, hut tomorrow may he too late. The Fascisti want power and will have 1 it." Calls on Fascisti Leader to Organize New Italian Cabinet Romo, Oct. —(Ry A. J\)—Artor the refusal of Antonio Salandra, for 11-or premier, to organize a ministry, tlio kins called on Mussolini, the Fas cist I loader, to assume the task. It is expected that Mussolini will arrive here this evening, and if he accepts the king's invitation, all further need for Fascistl action will he ended. Their entrance into Home will be the simple evidence of th”ir victory. Deputy C'hos'ri, describing the situa tion this morning, said that Southern Italy had been isolated from the rest of the country by bands of Fascistl commanded by deputy Caradonna. Other bands were encircling the towns in llasillcata and Calabria. The Fascistl had occupied the airdrome at Foggia, Tuscany and Umbria were entirely theirs. A semi-official statement declared that with the exception of certain iso lated incidents of an unimportant character, the country was absolutely tranquil and the cabinet was approach ing a solution. Rome today bore Its usual Sunday aspect. The houses were decorated with flags and crowds were gaily par ading the main thoroughfares, await ing the entry of the Fascist!. Some of the police and military, regulations of yesterday had been withdrawn; mo tor busses were again in service, but armed patrols were still to be seen In the streets. Cavalry occupied strategic points and the entire garrison was kept in readiness. Yesterday soldiers proceeded to the outskirts of the town and set up barbed wire entanglements; the rail road lines were closely guarded and •ill the bridges over the Tiber were shut off with wlrd and guarded by machine guns. The various ministries and public buildings were occupied by troops and the police cut off the cen tral part of the city with barricades and wire entanglements. A group of Fascistl succeeded today in what had been for a long time their ardent desire—the occupation of the offlcea of the pro-socialist newspaper U facie, the prgan of gx-Premler Xlttl; they burned nil the copies of the paper they could find and maintained their occupation of the offices In order to prevent any further issues of the paper. Pope Asks Peace Among Italians Rome. Oct. *».—(By A. ?.)—l*ope rius has addressed an apostolic letter to the Italian bishops, decline with the present political situation la which he deprecates "the fratricidal struggle afflicting our beloved country." The pontiff recalls hts former pas toral letter on the same subject urging a pacific spirit. Me said he la pro foundly grieved to nee evils threaten ing the religious, moral and material welfare of Italy and delaying the heal ing of the deep wounds inflicted by the long years of war. He added that he feels there is urgent need to ad dress to all Italian citisena a word of peace and charity. Me urges the bish ops to redouble their seal for pacifica tion and exhorts the faithful to sacri fice their wishes for the public good by Inspiring themselves with Christian principles and thus contribute to the general prosperity of the country. LACK OF CARS (Continued from Page One) ahead to new high records, the De cember future selling materially a bove 24 cents a pound. The strength of this commodity is attributed part ly to Its impressive statlstlcaf posi tion and partly to the faet that trade buying has been strong, due both to the clearing up of the Near Kastern situation and to better activity in the drygoods tread. Meanwhile a speculative following lias been at tracted by the spectacle of rising Prices. Grain on tlie other hand, lost part of tlie recent advance through profit taking. Optimism based on re ports of foreign shortages, has been restrained by an appreciation of the restricted, nature of ,'orcign purchas ing power. Money continues to display Its fir mer tone, as is consistent with ex panded trade activity. It is consid ered that the demands incidental to the latter have caused the withdraw al of funds from securities and that this lias been a lending factor in the decline of bond prices. The reaction in the new treasury 4 1-4 per rent bonds to ‘JO is regarded as halving been due to the retreat of specula tors who applied for the bonds ir» tlie hope that the latter would sell quick ly at a premium. An over-extended speculative position is also thought to have been a factor in tlie week's decline in stocks. Pronounced weakness in French and Belgian francs and in Italian lire in sympathy with renewed declines ia llic German mark, commanded considerable attention. Francs sold below seven cents and lire below four, prices which indicate marked anxiety over the German position. The reparations Commission lias gone to Berlin to discuss matter with the German government, lint London ob servers poiht out that quick and de finite results will be necessary to save the situation.

At tlie end of the first month she an nounced her bank balance and her husband was delighted at its size. Tlie next mouth it was still larger and lie was more delighted. But when tlie third month brought the statement that she had saved more than her half of tlie money his pleas ure knew no bounds. Half fearfully he went after his own statement. What would he do it her bank ac count now was higher than his—the man who prided himself on his econ omy? Then he found that he had no bal ance. First horror, then amazement and then something indescribable fol lowed his discovery for that condi tion of affairs existing.

AND LABOR Those of us who are hunting money •with which to pay the bills for the coal are really too busy to bother our heads at this particular moment w hether some of the coal miners may or may not have all the comforts of civilization. Some are painfully aware these cold mornings of suffer ing from lack of the full amount of heat which they have come to regard as one of the essentials to a person's well-being and happiness. They would not shed one tear if they knew the coal operators and miners were in a j like condition of destitution. Of course this view point may be all wrong and one should shrinliingly hide behind a mantle of gooseflesh. Not so John D. Rockefeller, Jr. He speaks as one glowing from the effects of a generous slice of that Standard Oil melon recently cut. Probably he has been able to get coal and doubtless his valet Isn't com pelled to break ice to obtain water for shaving. His heart goes out to the coal miners down in Somerset County, State of Pennsylvania, who declare they will freeze and starve In their tents on the hillside rather than take wages higher than the union scale and go back to work in a non-union mine. We admire tneir grit. We would admire Mr. Rocke feller more if he were down there shivering with them on the bleak hillside. But before having our digestion Impaired by a harassed sympathy we would like further information. Though it seema to be conceded that the mine owners of that place are autocratic—and we don't like that in anyone and don't believe th;s js the kind of a country that is healthy for autocracy—and it is also said the working conditions are not as good as they should be although the present wages are tempting, we would like to know what about Penn 85 lvania’s laws regulating such con ditions? It also would be interesting to know what the union-mine ccm petitors of those "hard-boiled” oper ators are doing. Are they contrib uting out of their hoards to the cause j of the miners trying to break the non-union mines? If not, why not, a* the non-union mine is a formidable competitor of the union mine. It was j the non-union mine that kept on j mining coal when, for all the union mine operators and miners appeared to care, the country might freeze. It is easy to acquire prejudices, especially where conditions are fa orable, but that is bad for all con cerned. The public should know the truth respecting Mr. Rockefeller’s position. It is clear that he is a stockholder in some of the concerns, the working conditions of which he criticises. This is favorable to his i plea and supports the position to which he evidently aspires, namely, that of a far-seeing, fair-minded capitalist. It is but fair to him to i take for granted that 1)C sincerely believes in humanizing the condition of labor where that has not been j done and that he is convinced such procedure would favor employer and employee alike in the end. There are many who believe with him. They may not see wherein he has prescribed a sure cure, but they i should welcome the effort, also the rebuke in his words for those, who would exploit labor, for such are no less enemies to sound public welfare than'at e the labor malcontents. The methods employed to compel a change of government in Italy re semble those with which some of the small Central American countries were cursed. It would be supposing the incredible to conclude that Italy will be disposed to continue those methods. Mussolini has certainly mussed matters. _ Menace From Mines Still Present at Sea Stockholm. Oct. 10—All ships leav ports on the Baltic Sea have been warned of the renewed danger of mines, many of which have been found in various parts of the ^ea dur ng the last month. The latest casualty laid to mines is the loss of the Finnish lightship storbotten. which was blown up by a mine off Aland in September. Five if the crew of ten were lost. The oss of many vessels since the war is jclievcd to have been caused by the nines. The sea was reported to be mine ice after German boats had been sent to clear the waters last sum mer. It is now. alleged that this job was not well done, and that there Is still jnuih danger iiom these floating derelicts. A PROCLAMATION ■TATB OP HAHTB pmocxiAVATsoar by the OOYBBBOB ARMISTICE DAT NOV. 11, 1922. Four years have passed since that memorable Nov. 11th on the V estern Front. Four years ago the greatest sigh ot relief that ever came from human hearts rose Heavenward. The peoples of the World were sick of war; they longed for peace. It came. Since then changes have been slow, ^sap pointment. but not despair, is abroad in the World because the lessons of the war have been too little heeded. The young citizen soldiers who took up arms in their country's defense can do much to make or mar the future. It is for them to insist that the war's lessons be not forgotten. Their loyal and unselfish service in times of peace may equal, if not exceed, that rendered during war. Our form of government is the finest vet devised by man. but it cannot en dure without the unselfish support; of the great body of our citizens. I he service man has a vital part to play In the coming decades of our coun trv’s hlstcry, and those who believe in him expect to see that part honorably played. As a tribute to those who served in th-' World War. NOW THEREFORE. T Pereival r. Baxter. Governor of the State of Maine, do hereby proclaim SATURDAY.

Before they could get back the car was a total loss. They took a trolley car home and strange to say, in the excitement, forgot all about the clamshells.

Where demand exceeds tlie supply, realtors said, the price of the supply will mount. Washington rents are still high and the shortage is still held up as tho reason. But “There were 34S3 vacant houses, apartment and flats in Wash ington in July of this year,” accord ing to a recent survey of engineers of the local telephone company. "Of this total. 2779 were houses, 709 were apartments and 490 were classified as flats.” Tlie survey was made to estimate the amount of the company’s business in coming years. It resulted in the declaration by the engineers tjiat since 1917 a decreasing number of families are living in bouses, ns well as a decreasing number residing in apartments. Because of high prices. I evidently, the survey showed that more persons have had to resort to “flats." rooming houses and light housekeeping establishments. Cornish Fishermen Watch 14 Years for Menhaden St. Ives, Cornwall, Cct. 1"—For 14 years two gnarled, hawkeyed fisher men. perched upoVi a precipitous cliff at St. Ives overlooking the Atlantic, have watched for the return of the pilchard to the Cornish seas. This fish goes by the name of menhaden in the United States. William Noall and Edward Cothev keep their vigil from dawn until sun I set. They never have their meals together—one eats while the other watches for the return of the fish to the bay which was formerly the pil chard’s favorite haunt. Fourteen years ago there was the greatest catch of pilchards ever known, and wealth came to the local 1 fishermen, but since then the fish I have only frequented the bay once. On that occasion they came to with in two miles of the shore, but the whistling of an engine frightened them away, and possible fortunes were lost.

NINE MILLION Red Cross to Expend; in Relief Former Service Men Disabled Dur- j ing World War to Be Cared For as Primary Responsibility Washington, Oct. 28.—Approxi mately $9,000,000 will be expended by the American Red Cross during the fiscal year ending next June, for the relief of former service men dis abled during the world war. Since the care of former soldiers and their dependents has the first call upon Red Cross services, the national body will spend $3,030,692 for such relief, and with every chapter practically adding to the relief, the total will reach the estimated figure. These funds will be used for services the Fcdeial government is not authorized to render and for which it has neither funds nor facilities. Care of the ex-service men and their families is regarded as a pri mary Red Cross responsibility, and that it should lie neither indiscrim inate nor niggardly requires pat.ent study of an intricate problem and continual readjustments to situations as they exist and develop. "The function of the Red Cross," said John Barton Payne, national chairman in this year's annual report, "is not to usurp the government's responsibilities, but to supplement official activity: harmoniously co operate with official plans and meth ods; and seek out the individual in the standardized mass and his pecul iar needs. rne Red cross acquires ana dis tributes information among- the men and their families; acquaints the U. S. Veterans' Bureau with the per sonal equation in individual cases; prepares and furnishes comforts, recreation, and the many necessary services which the government, by its very nature, can procure only from voluntary assistance. These obligations and privileges fall pri marily to the Red Cross chapters, whose volunteer members arc kept acquainted with the official situation through liaison Red Crocs officers attached to the District officers of the Veterans' Bureau.” On Armistice Day. November 11. when the American Red Cross opens its annual Roll Call for membership, there will be under treatment in gov ernment hospitals more than "5.000 veterans. In tlie opinion of the sur geon general of the army the peak of disabled men under reconstruction will not be reached until 1926. During the fiscal year ended last June, 2.679 Red Cross chapters in all sections of the country were re corded active in the soldier 11 lief work. During that year they re ported 1,665,079 individual instances of services to such men and their dependents, at a cost cs:i mated at more titan $5,310,000. More than 1.000 persons paid and volunteer, were engaged in Red Cross worn in government hospital's' and (lie Vet erans’ Bureau district offices. .More than 37.000 compensation and insur ance claims were handled, 21.360 allowance and allotment cases, and 0.700 miscellaneous claims. Since February 1919, when this service wits established, it has disposed of 64.171 allotment checks payable to veterans j which the post office reported tin- deliverable. The basis of this stupendous work, is the individual need, and the Red Cross is concentrated upon it' to the end that the disabled ex-service man 1 may obtain all his rights under the law, and that his own and his family's situation may bo rendered free from rare and worry. Chinese Mail Takes Consolation in Prizes Peking, Oct. 1.0—China's mail serv ice, dating back to the Chou dynasty (1122-219 13. C.) undoubtedly holds first place in tlie world of mail transportation for unusual methods. Traffic over certain streams in Anh wei province is accomplished by a round tub in which the postman stands with his sacks while another paddles. Last year an aerial route was maintained for a time between the capital and Tsinanfu, in Shan tung. Away off in Chinese Turkestan four-wheel wagons drawn by ponies j carry the mails, while in Shensi mule litters and bullock carts serve the purpose. In Manchuria horse-i drawn sledges skin over the ice and on the Kalgan-T'rga route slow trudging camel trains constitute the mail transport. There are certain places on the Yangtsze where the mail-man pulls himself by hand along a cable stretched from one side of a gorge to the other with the mail sacks strapped to his back. Across the Yellow River in Shensi a square raft made of water-buffalo skins carries the courier. In modernized China fast steam trains and motor trucks have super seded the ancient methods. The annual report of the post offiee for 1921 shows that from 1903 to 1920 the bulk of moiled matter has increased from 3,000,000 pieces to 400.000.000. j and tk,o area covered from 20,006 li to 475,000 li. During 1921, there were 442.116,35$ pieces of mail mat- j ter handled, averaging slightly more than one piece to every inhabitant, j JEFFEKSON O.liddon-I'luminrr The marriage of Earle Glidden and Annie Plummet', both of Jeffer son. occurred on Thursday.

Bootlegging illethcds In Bermudan Waters Hamilton, Bermuda, Oct. 1G—This is how some marine bootjleggers arc believed to operate in llennudan waters. Such a man eomes to Ham ilton and engages a steamer of small dimensions, or a motor boat. Then ho buys whiskey ashore, and loads his ship to the rails with tlto product of the Scotch distillers. He clears for a Canadian port and puts to sea. Within a day or so, sometimes within 24 hours, the vessel is back in Hamilton, but without her cargo. Were lie pressed for an explanation the bootlegger doubtless would say, with a smile, that he was caught in a storm which washed away his deck load, and that he had even to throw overbord the cases below decks to lighten the ship. Ships entering American ports may not bo permitted to carry liquor, but with this law the man with a local charter does not necessarily concern himself. His interest is limited to these waters. He has been known to talk of latter day pirates, but lie does riot seem particularly to fear them. A "pirate” with a desire to sell for $12.00 a bottle, what he can lift at sea for nothing, perhaps, sails from an American port and heads for Bermuda. He lays off and on until he meets a victim in the shape of a small motor boat. H^ overhauls her, and with a display of force sufficient to warrant a recital on the (Jocks when the motor boat gets back to Hamilton, he transfers the cargo he desires.

The newspapci assert these fig ures prove that the United States government is not justified in its de mands for protection of the lives of its nationals here. It is also reported that during the past few months the Mexican foreign office has made fre quent representations regarding al leged killings of Mexicans in the United States.

Several agents from the Prohibi tion Directors' Department in this city, conducted two raids in Water ville Saturday, seizing a large quan tity of alcohol, beer and wine. The officers from this city were under the direction of division chief Rob ert Jack. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Leighton of this city and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Knight of Gardiner motored Satur day to Boston where they passed the week-end. Mrs. Leighton will remain in Boston for two weeks where she will visit with her sister, Mrs. James E. Dolliver. An auto which stopped for a short time in this city attracted much at tention because of the fact that there were five fine deer lashed to the run ning boards. When seen by the re porter there was no one with the car but from the. tags It was found that they came from Wells and York, Me. A party of five hunters returning from a hunting trip to tlie Rangoley Rakes region mon strator. who found that the average labor income on these farms uas $511. There were also 62 poultry J and eight milk, live potatoe, 12 sr.ect corn anil two dairy accounts started during the 'ear, most of Which are still being kept. Livestock. W. R. Ayers. Augusta. This report was especially pleu-mg. Mr. Ayers was not present and the report was given by county agent A. Day. The report was to the effect that in cooperation with the State and Federal Departments of Agriculture, £33 herds containing 4333 cattle have been tested for tu berculosis. only 74 diseased cattle beihg found, the percentage of dis eased cattle being but one and i ne lialf per cent. This is a very low test. There are still numerous herds in Augusta, Benton, Belgrade Read field and Vienna which have not l-eon reported. The federal government pays the expenses of this test with the exceptions of the transportation and to cover this cost it is tlie gtneral practise to charge the farmers ten cents a head for the test. There is also much more interest in raising the proper kind of ensilage, 2 Mine Florence Ferrell. Ona of tho Finest Musical Offerings Cantnl Maine has ever known._^^ o w i a. Good For A,!

HARRIMAN URGES MORE FARM TALK AT GRANGE MEETS State Lecturer Merle J. Harriman of Readfield was the speaker of the evening at Old Home Night Saturday evening at Capital Grange. Mr. Har riman spoke of the fact that agri cultural problems are not discussed enough at the meetings of the grange. In the country they would be a great help to the members and in the city it would bring to the city members an understanding of the farmer and his problems, thus bringing them togeth er more closely. Another thing that he emphasized was that there are two fundamental thing necessary to create greater in terest in the meetings, promptness in starting the meetings and better de pree work. He further said that the granges do not advertise enough, that the paper are always ready to print grange news and that they should take advantage of this oppor tunity. The program of the evening was as follows, reading of the Grange pa per, Hallowe'en march, refreshments and an old fashioned spelling match. The Hallowe'en march was especially pleasing, all of the members adjourn j ing to the kitchen and then return- i ing to tile hall laden with gifts of kitchen utensils and other things for Brother and Sister, A. B. Mason who I recently lost their house and many of their household effects by tire. They were greatly surprised and j pleased and later in the evening they iliad much fun opening the various j parcels. I Tlie refreshments consisted of I doughnuts, coffee and apple* and I were son consumed. Following the j serving of the refreshments an old fashioned spelling bee was held. A. 115. Mason, Jr., received the consola tion prize of a dunce cap and Miss Winifred Clark received a beautiful calendar for spelling the others down. Tlie committee in charge of the evenings entertainment consisted of the lecturer. Miss Myra Parker. Hor tense Staples. Dorothy A Yard and Winifred Clark. I E. P.

L Something to please every taste will be found in the ‘‘Novelty Night” program of this season’s Augusta Entertainment Course. It is doubt ful if more popular and novel fea tures have ever been brought to gether for a one evening program on any lyceum course. Daddy Groebecker’s Swiss Yodlers are not only the best but the only genuine Sw'iss company before the American public. Their vocal and instrumental program is fascinating from start to finish, and is presented lin the Swiss mountaineer attire, the most picturesque of all Europe. The company of five people has been un changed for many years, and in cludes the champion Yodler of the World. Securing Edward Avis, the great est living bird mimic, for another feature of Novelty Night is a guar antee of a delighted audience. How I one man with ono pair of lips and with the aid of a violin can repro- I (luce such a variety oC bird voices is beyond human comprehension. When he lives in the woods the birds flock around him like tlio children round the “Pied Piper of Hamelin.” They have taught him their secrets and their songs, and as a result the bird man can reproduce bird songs that range a couple of octaves higher than any operatic soprano can sing. “Am I dreaming or do I hear my favorite bird," you will say when you listen to him. The Pierces, lyceum’s leading dra matic entertainer", will be the third big feature of what promises to be the most pleasing “Novelty Night” program ever offered on tlie Augusta course. They have created a reputa tion for excellency which extends from Maine to California. Humor, drama and music are beautifully blended into an irresistible program by these entertainers who for fifteen years have pleased most discriminat ing audiences.—Adv. Beautiful Memorial of Imperial Lodge Imperial Lodge, Degree of Honor, Thursday afternoon, held a memorial service, for their fraternal sisters who have passed away in the last year. The memorial took place at the home of Mrs. Sadie E. Metchalf, C8 Chapel street and was a very beautiful and effective ceremony. The chief of honor, Mrs. Octavia Cony, conducted the services. She was assisted by the three leading' officers, Lady of Honor, Mrs. Harriet Knowles; Chief of Ceremonies, Mrs. Iva Colgan; Past Chief of Honor, Mrs. Caroline Taylor. The memorial, bringing to the minds of the women, the memory of j the sisters who have been taken from their active lists by death in the past i 12 months, was read by Mrs. Harriet Knowles and Mrs. Sadie Metcalf, i Mrs. Nellie Philbroek arranged and I read the memorial service. Vocal sulos were rendered by Mrs. Iva Colgan and she sang, “Face to Face” land "Beautiful Isle of SoAiewliere.” Her accompanist was Mrs. May Dearborn.

Revue Prologue Introduces Local Star Performers “Can you put on n better show than you did last year?” is the query and the Augusta Girls' Community club answers back, strong and sure, “We certainly can. You wait and see what happens on the evening of Nov. 1 and 2 at the Opera house, when the “Augusta ltcvuc of 1022” will occupy tlm stage.” The girls have accepted the chal lenge, but they will not have to do it alone, as many of the young men folks of the city and other girls who arc not club members are going to help the good causa along. In tlie prologue alone, which by tlie way is the key to the situation, a number of Hie local stars will be seen in characteristic parts. For instance, Kalph Grown of “Kathleen," “Cran berry Corner” and “Ked Acre” fame, will be seen in the part of a meek and mild husband. C.

CLUB WOMEN'S TRAVELING EXHIBIT Designed to Give Suggestions for Furnishing, the Home in Good Taste-Art Commit tee’s Practical Work During the Federation meeting at Dover-Foxcroft many club officers, after seeing and appreciating the General Federal Industrial Art Ex hibit, designed to put over the mes sage “Made in U. S. A. means as much as made elsewhere," expressed a desire for something of the sort that should be more detailed in suggestions for furnishing and re furnishing our Maine country homes in good taste. With this need in mind the Art Committee of the Maine Federation has succeeded in collecting a traveling art exhibit lor the Maine State Federation of Women’s Clubs—an exhibit which shall aid towards promoting “The Atmosphere of Better Homes"—and this is the title of an accompany ing typed lecture written by Grace l\ T. Knudson, chairman of the Art Committee. The exhibit will be released before the Norumbega Club, Bangor, Nov. 3d when Mrs. Knudson herself will deliver the lecture. It will come to Auburn in February. A paint com pany has painted especially for this exhibit a set of decorative color schemes which are both educational and interesting to every home mak er. A silver collection, showing the evolution of tho teaspoon, was made possible by the co-operation of a well-known silver company. While the chief object of this ex hibit is to give practical help in home furnishing, enough of histori cal interest is embodied to drive home lessons by contrast with out worn methods and styles. The Federation hopes that every, woman’s club in tho State will ar- j range to present this exhibit in an j open meeting, if not possible at a regular club meeting. It is availa ble also for Country jiome Demon stration agents and for the public schools. The cost is only nominal, $2.50 and express from last point on the circuit. Arrangements for use of this exhibit can be made by ad- dressing Airs. Grace P. T. Knudson, Castine, Maine.

Rebecca Garnett, between 60 and 70, of Calais, were married in St. Stephen N. B., just across the border Wednesday night, disclosed I that the “bride" was already married. Her husband a help less invalid, said that lie didn't care if she married George, it is said. In vestigation of this queer rase bungs to light an amazing ignorance of marital laws on the part of those concerned—except the minister who married tho couple. Ho says that all the facts were grossly misrepresent ed and that he has been trying to make amends ever since by return ing the fee and taking back tlie certificate. Two More Held in Olive Oil Booze Case Portland, Ate., Oct. 28.—George L,. boring and Edward Connolly were ar rested by deputy sheriffs on the charge of receiving aleohol shipped as olive oil by express and delivered by Joseph S.

Denies Marriage Pereival C. Davis, adjutant Of Gay ton post of the American Legion of Auburn, appeared before Judge Oakes at the Superior Court Thursday aft ernoon asking that his alleged mar riage with Lois Stone Allen, alias Lois Stone Davis, be annulled. Hie libel alleges that the marriage took place in California on November 26, 1909. In his testimony, however, he stoutly maintained that they were never married, but Miss Allen, as he called her, had insisted that they were. He said he first met her when working here for the telephone com pany in 1906-7. Safety First The guns were popping over the moors and the pheasants were fly ing all about, but few were falling. One gunner waa especially unlucky. He ahot time after time, but every time the bird got away. “I aay,” he remarked to the attendant game keeper, "they're terribly strong on the wing today, what?" "Ho, nor air!" said the keeper, "that’s the same bird, sir." "The same bird?

Iii spite of the difficulties which the fruit growers of Oxford county are encountering in 'the low pi ice of apples and the high price and scarcity of efficient help, their courage is very good and they are planning to go at the orchard prob lems with renewed vigor this coining year. This is the report of G. A. Yeaton, State horticulturist, who has recently returned from a trip in that section of the State. The apple loss in that county was heavy during the recent freeze because the oreharciists could not got the fruit picked in time. in their plans for the work next year, a few of the orchardists are planning to buy orchard dusters, while others are going to stick to the method of using the powder sprayers to control any insects and fungus diseases which attack the fruit. Mr. Yeaton reported that there was quite a difference in the com parative control of insects where the dust method and the spray were dem onstrated. He stated that a slight balance was found in favor of the spray, especially when the Bordeaux mixture was used in the last two sprayings. In one orchard that Mr. Yeaton visited where the McIntosh and Fameuse varieties were sprayed, the control was almost perfect. Mr. Yeaton stated that this may have been due in part to the methodical spraying in the past and the fact that the fungus diseases had been kept pretty well under control. The dusters In Maine are still In the experimental stage. Mr. Yeaton said. While the orchard can be dusted in about one-flfth of tbs time it can be sprayed and the expense Is per haps a little less, yet many hesitate to throw the old sprayers away.

DECISION IN KENNEBUNE FATAL ACCIDENT The Public Utilities Commission has issued the following decision in the matter of the Boston Maine R. R. in the accident near Elm station. Ken nebunk. in which Bert Bennett, age 40, of Kenneounk. received injuries from which he died: On Oct. 5, 1922, Bert Bennett, age 40. of Kennebunk, a section-hand em ployed Vby the Boston Alaine Rail road. Was thrown from a motor-car and received injuries from which he later died. The accident happened at about 9.30 p. m., October 5, near Elm Station, Kennebunk, Maine. Hearing was held at Kennebunk. Oct. 7, 1922. It appears that on the night of the accident that some farm buildings had been struck by lightning and that sev eral horses had been released from in; buildings. Two of them had run onto the railroad bridge of the Boston A Maine Railroad, and had fallen through the bridge. A section crew, consisting of section foreman George Smith, Har ry Taylor and Bert Bennett, was sent from Kennebunk Station on a motor car to extricate the horses from the bridge. The section crew loaded their tools and some plank on the motor car and started for the bridge. At the time of the accident the car was going up a grade. Its speed w’as about 1$ miles per hour. Suddenly the car was thrown from the rails, and all three man wera thrown from and In front of the moving car. Smith and Bennett fell between the rails, and Taylor fell on the rail. Mr. Bennett received in juries from which he died a short time later. Mr. Smith was severely Injured, and Mr. Taylor received alight Injuries. An examination of the motor car showed that an iron rod which runs across the front of the car was doubled back if a sharp bend to the cross-sill of the car. In this bend it was plainly shown that some metal substance had struck the Iron rod and caused the bend as the Iron rod was cut and badly scratched.' From the evidence tt appears that one of the tools which had been loose ly thrpwn on the motor car had fallo.i off the front of the car striking the tie and at the same time hitting the I car, throwing it front the rails.

More persons are said to appear in “The I»ves of Pharaoh” than in any other motion picture ever made. The spectator sees 112,000 persons in this most tremendous production di rected by Ernest Lubitsch, creator of “Passion” and “Deception." When Mr. Lubitsehe announced at a lunch eon in New York, that 112,000 per sons appeared in “The Loves cf Pharaoh.” some of those who heard him were frankly skeptical. That was far more than were used in "Passion.” “Deception” and “The Birth of a Nation” combined. Mr. I.ubitsche turned for corrobor ation to his manager. Paul Davidson, who showed a receipt from a theat rical agency for its commissions for furnishing 112,065 extras during the filming of the Paramount picture “The Loves of Pharaoh.’ which will be the feature at the Opera House today and tomorrow. “This Paramount picture shows the best elements of American tech nique continuity, grafted upon the best direction that Lubitsehe has ev er displayed,” writes Randolph Bart lett. who titled the picture, in a letter to the New York Times. “As a re sult I was able to cover eight reels with only ISa titles which is far less tl.an are usually required in an Am COLONIAL Today 6.45215 8.30 Viola Dana and Bryant Washburn IIN JUNE MADNESS” A dramatic comedy of jilting, jazz, jeopardy and joy TUESDAY “THE S^Y PILOT with Colleen Moore and John Bowers crican five reeler. You will also be Interested in knowing that of these titles fully one third have five words j or fewer. I take no special credit for j this because the picture lent itself to i rapid story telling. j “It is also interesting to note the i new development in the handling of lights by the Europeans. The past tendency has been either to use too little liglii.for subdued scenes or to light the entire scene with a flat spray of illumination. In “The Loves of Pharaoh” we begin to see the first development of light manipulation. “There is one scene, for instance, where there is a very large crowd assembled in a great throne-room and Mr. Lubitsche, instead of flood ing the crowd with light to prove to the audience that he was employing a vast number of people, leaves the crowd in the shadow, casts his high light one half way up to the side of the room along a great row of pil lars so that it leads the eye to the local point of the action away in the distance. It is a perfect marvel of applied optics. There are various other instances of the same nature w'hich indicates that the European producers arc swiftly assimilating whatever’is best of out technique. —Adv. Viola Dana Stars in ‘‘June Madness” “June Madness” is the title of the ikw Metro picture which comes to the Colonial today, and it depicts the madcap adventures of a spright I ly young miss, played by Viola Dana, who breaks away from her own [wedding ceremony, leaving a mil lion-dollar bridegroom flat and I speechless. She is chased by Mamma, friends, ushers, clergyman, and relatives of the million dollar fish, but outside the church she meets a lumdred dollar Jazz King and orchestra'lead or in bis roadster. He helps her to escape from the horrors of a life of luxury. The Jazz King, played by Bryant Washburn, is no inconsider able party himself, and makes a-lot j of unwilling people dance to his tune. Even the little runaway bride can not bluff him, although he has his troubles with her. There is a picturesque scene at a roadhouse, where Miss Dana does an unusual “Wedding Dance” in an un usual costume.

When he left her he said j l e would return to Riley, procure a •truck and return for the stove. He afterwards called at the home of his sister. Mrs. Guy Knight, telling her in the course of general conversation that two “bums" held him up for a ride. He did not start for Livermore F^lls to cash his trading checks, as was at first thought, nor did he appear a' the i bank that day. The point at which he was attacked in half way between Riley and Jay. at a deep gravel pit alongside the lonely I read which skirts the Androscoggin river. Authorities place the time of his death as between 8.50 and 10 o'clock Friday morning, for he was seen a few minutes before 8.r>0 and his body was yet warm when it was found shortly afier 10 o'clock. An incomplete post mortem exatnin at ion made by Dr. George Pratt of Farmington, medical examiner for this district, revealed three bullet wounds I about Allen's head. One shot tore its nay along his skull without splinter ing the bone, though he was evidently stunned by its force. A second shot t entered at the tip of the left ear and shattered his skull from the inside after piercing the brain while a third bvllet. apparently fired from an oppo site angle, tore through a portion of tre right ear and embedded itself in the skull at the base of the brain.
