A REMARKABLE observation-disclosures
who has ever examined our splendid High
School building have no doubt noticed and ad-
mired the fine large ventilators on the top
They have no doubt thought of the vast amount
of impure air which passed through these VEN
tilators, and perhaps computed the number Of
lives that have been saved by such appliances
This is all we'll enough and the ventilators
would have done lot of good if they had beeu
connected with the foul air pipes, but they are
not. Recent repairs on the building have de-
monstrated the remarkable fact that the pipe
from the inside was run as far as the roof and
then the ornamented ventilators were fastened
to the outside of the roof, the pipe and the ven
tilators not connecting at all, as there vase no
hole in the roof. Who was the builder? Who

A Boy Of Five Beaien Almost TO Deaih
by a Boy Of Nine.

Ahorrible affair occurred at Squirrel Island,

summer resort, and which has its counterpart
only in the atrocities of the boy-murderer,
Jesse Pomeroy.
The other day a little six year old boy, J.
Howard Butterfeld, son of Henry r. Butter.
field of Waterville, who is stopping at the
island. in company with quite number of
other boys, the most of whom were older than
himself, was playing in the water. They
were throwing stones into the water, to notice
the effect of the splashings made. A stone
thrown by the Butterfeld boy happened to
splash water upon boy nine years old, who
became angered. apparently, told Butterfeld
if he caught him he would "give him lick
ing" The threat was carried out with a
terrible vengeance.
On Saturday morning, Howard Butterfeld
was missing; his mother became alarmed,
called loudly for him, bat there was no
response. Finally search was instituted, and
after some time the little fellow was found by
Percy Brooks and Nathan Fuller, 10 the water
closet in the rear of the bowling alley. His
clothing was stripped from him, his body was
covered with blood. and the poor child was
nearly dead. He was tenderly taken up and
carried to the house. aud after being partially
restored was able to tell something concerning
the transaction. He. said, in substance, that
the boy to whom we have referred, induced
him to go to walk with him. promising to give
him some candy. He consented, and as they
were passing the bowling alley, the boy seized
Butterfeld and dragged him into the water
closet. He then forced him to undress,
assisting him at the same time to strip every
particle of clothing from the little body
threatening to kill him if he screamed. He
then beat him with stick, and kicked him
violently in the stomach. The boy heard his
mother calling him, but dared not respond for
fear of still harsher treatment. The body of
the boy was badly bruised, and the marks of
the kicks were plainly visible on the bowels,
and it is feared that he will not live. The
boys father was absent at the time, but went
Immediately to the island, and yesterday bore
the little sufferer to his home In Waterville.
He passed through Augusta on the afternoon
train yesterday.
The parents of the boy committing this
dreadful deed reside in Kennebec town.
