To Come To Maine

Judge Colt has designated United States
District Judge Carpenter of Rhode Island to
hold the remainder of the term of the circuit

the Ocean Insurance Company, in which
corporation the Judge in Maine has an inter
est, which, in his opinion, disqualifes him
from sitting on the trial of the case, which
has been transferred from the district and is

get some meat While there his horse
walked to the opposite side of the street to a
drinking fountain A small boy came along,
saw the horse drinking and as there was no

off. After having long ride through the
city and at the Cape the little rascal was fl
nally caught near the Maine Central depot.
The horse had been driven until he was ex-
hausted, and Mr.. Jordan had good chase
before he recovered his team. The little fell
low said ne was trying to find the owner of
the team, but it was deemed wise to take
him to the station.
