aid he would have gained residence in

years before it was rendered, and he re-

The defendants contend that the provisions
given Rowe were not pauper supplies, be-
cause they were sent him by only one of the
Overseers of the Poor of Smithied without
the knowledge and concurrence of his col
leagues upon the board; and therefore, that
Waterville, is not liable, and Rowe gained

No 20. State, by Indictment. vs.. inhab-

No 81. State, by indictment. VS.. Nor
rdgewock Bridge Company.
These cases were argued together by Hon.
John S. Abbott of Boston, for the State, in the
first case, and for the defendant corporation in
the second, and by Hon. ID. ID. Stewart, con-
ira. The question was who ought to main
tain bridge across the Kennebec River lead
ing from the mainland in Madison to an
island in the same town. The defendants in
both eases were convicted of not maintaining
it, There had been way located over this
bridge and the town had made some repairs,
in different years, upon the structure, as part
of such way. On the other hand the original
bridge at this point was built by the Norridge-
wock Bridge Company under its charter
granted in 1927, and that corporation had
twice replaced it when swept away by
| freshets. 1t is claimed by Madison that the
Bridge Company only use the island as a
span or pier of their bridge, and that they
cannot be said to maintain bridge across the
| Kennebec unless their structure extends from
| bank to bank of the river; and that it is only
! for such an erection that they are authorized
| to take toll and that to allow them to exact
| toll from travellers for passing over town
way, which Madison is bound to keep in re-
| pair, would be an outrage upon the citizens of
| that town. The Bridge Company reply that
| their bridge extends only to the island and that
| this was well understood when the way was
| located; and that when the corporation aided
| to build the part now in controversy it was
| merely as n business enterprise, to facilitate
access to their bridge, and not on account of
| any legal liability on their part.
| The cases brought up from Somerset Coun-
| ty have all been heard. The Knox bar will
| have the floor tomorrow.

Friend Hx- i'll Trouble,

Last evening as friend H was re-
moving some boxes at his house, he dis
turbed a nest of rats land as henever did like
that animal, he attempted to put his foot
upon large one which was about to es-
cape, in q manner calculated to stop its
earthly career. The rat, not fancying the
appearance of SO much sole leather COM
ing down upon him, made "stratgetic
movement" and started up HIS leg on
sharp-toed rat, climbing up a PERSONS
naked leg, can better be imagined than
described. H did not like it; he jump
ed, he yelled, he blasphemed, at one time
grasping his pants over the rat, which was
offset by rat using his teeth in his leg.
H now screamed like a MOdOc, his
motives changing as the rats position
changed, which was up one leg and down
the other, when evidently perceiving his
movement, started square up IFS
back. This was too much, dry goods Of
no importance then; but putting both
hands on the inside of his cravat, with a
convulsive jerk, he commenced to peel
down clean as he went, regardless Of but
tons or the usual manner of disrobing. If
not usual it was effective, and in few seq
onds H stood in his boots only. BY
the side of him lay fragments of shirts,
and with adjectives more expressive than
eloquent, still rolling from his mouth, he
stood regardless of the rush from all parts
of the house of servants and boarders, who
imagined the house to be on fire or some
thing equally calamitous had happened.
We did not learn the fate of the poor
rat, but as a matter of safety warn our
readers that should they meet H this
morning to forbear saying rats to him.

There is very little of interest TO note this

ders, which will keep them busy for n short time.
Some new orders are received from day TO day
but trade Is not up TO the expectations Of manu-
facturers, though they have shaded prices con-
siderably as an inducement to buyers to pur-
chase now Reports from the West and South
speak of light demand for goods, which &C
purchase heavily. The decline in hides en-.
courages manufacturers to look for lower Price
for leather, but it takes so long to produce finish
ed leather that the spring trade will not be likely
pecially as leather has been selling below the
cost Of production. Calf boots are selling
moderately. Brogans lack activity. Lynn and
Haverhlll goods are fairly active Commercial
