A RuRan Running Amuck-He Under
 takes t0 Clean Out a Saloon With
 Knife.
 BANGOR, Sept. 24.-There was regular border affair at Veazie near this city to-day. man named Maurice Buckley, riverman, came into the city and got drunk and in the afternoon went to the saloon of George John son where was assembled small party drink ing beer. Upon his arrival Mr. Buckley an- nounced his intention of Hurting somebody and began slashing around with 8 knife. Johnson put the intruder out into shed where the rufian stabbed him twice and seri ously wounded him. Buckley threatened to cut Mrs. Johnsons throat and struck her lit tie child with stick, fracturing the skull and making a gash that required eight stitches. He then smashed all the windows out of the house and made the place total wreck. He then went into the street and dared any constable to arrest him and the attempt was not made. Everyone in town fears Buckley and not 8 man dares to assist to secure him, knowing the rufian would seek revenge at the earliest opportunity. After leaving the house it is said Buckley ex claimed, 'I might as well go back and clean out the rest of the saloon crowd, " but they had dispersed before he could get back. He is still at large.
