hostile camps We DO not want to do
anything which would be unpleasant in
any way to the Secretary Of the Inter

instruct General Carlin that he must

Horse THIEVES. tive weeks
ago teamster over at Ward lost two
horses, and it was afterwards found that
they were stolen by man named Nor
rison, the blacksmith, who some time
ago was shot by James Sharon, who is
now in Jail awaiting the action of a
grand jury. At the time the horses were
stolen, the teamster. (name unknown)
in company with man named John
Morrow, started out in pursuit of the
thief, and who have been absent some
ten or twelve days, since which time not
word has been heard from them.
Fears are entertained that the two men
have been foully dealt with. 1t is
thought that Morrison was connected
with an organized band of horse thieves
who have been powlipg about in Ward
District and that locality for some time.

CHURCH CENTENNIAL AT WINTHROP The
Centennial of the organization of the Congre-
gatonal church of Winthrop was celebrated
on Monday. There were appropriate exercises
including commemorative discourse by Rev.
L. Il. N. Lord OF Limerick, former resident
of the town He stated that his church was
the first one organized 10 what now constitutes
tue counties OF Kennebec, Penobscot, Piscata-
quis, Somerset, Franklin and Oxford. The
original members were 16 males and II fe-
males, who subscribed to the Westminster con-
fession of faith, or the shorter catechism. The
first pastor was the Rev. David .Jewett, settled
in l7S2, who mlnistered fourteen months, when
he was taken away by death, The church was
without pastor till 1900, when Jonatba Bel
den Was settled and labored there til 1905.
The next pastor was Rev. David Thurstop,
who remained forty-four years, after wnom
came Rev. Rufus Sawyer eight years. Rev.
Samuel Boxer, three years, Rev. Thomas X.
Noble, two years, Rev. Edward T. Baker,
seven years, Rev. Richard W. Jenkins two
years, and the present pastor, Rev. w. f.
Bickford, who has just commenced his labors.
The first two meetinR-houses were built by the
town, and the last one was also used as q town
house" for election and other purposes. These
houses were occupied many years without any
means of heating, except the foot stoves used
by the ladies in those days; but the sermons
were two each Sunday and fully as long as the
average sermons of the present. day. Many
"reminiscences of those times were revived
There have been 581 members received to the
church during these hundred years, and l5l re-
main now on the rolls. Several PRACTICAL les
SOUS were drawn from the experiences of the
past, and feeling exhostation to the church to
profit 5yssthem in the future.
