ed for the Stevenson brothers and
Mr.. Coffin for Mrs. Stevenson.
Mr.. Woodburn in outlining his

Mrs. Stevenson testified tina.
she found the will in the safe; Mrs.

one; knew the provisions Of her
husbands will when it was made:
did not ask Ed or Lou to be pres
ent when the will was opened;
knew OF no mucilage on the will.

About II. 40 o'clock yesterday morn

Arlington Mills with a terrific report.
John Keenan,, an employee. who was
operating a printing machine close by
the boiler was struck on the left side,
injurlng the arm, shoulder and leg.
Some OF the veins were cut In his leg
and he lost considerable blood before
a physician could be secured. Drs.
Shortlidge, Draper, Pierce and Stewart
fastened to the mill and did everything
possible for the injured man. The
wound is considered very serious, and
owing to his weak condition caused
by the great loss of blood, 1t seemed
scarcely probable that he could recover.
He was removed to his home, No, 934

shortly after 3o'olock. where he lin

Rev. Adam Stengle attended prayer
meeting services last night at the Union

has been for five years the pastor. Lit
tie did he dream OF the Gaming he was
TO receive ut tho close of the services.
When the people We're about to dis
perse, number OF men with badges
on entered the lecture room. They
were part OF the Patriotic Order of
Lodge No. 8, Sons OF America, that
meets IN the Masonic Temple. They
approached the pastor with u deter
mined purpose. One OF them carried
mysterious, elongated package.
The minister looked mystitied, but
stood his ground and soon he knew
the purpose OF his visitors. He was TO
be eaned. Enoch F. ii. Roberts then,
on behalf OF the order, presented Min
lister Stengie with beautiful gold
headed cane properly inscribed, to
which MIR, Stengle very feelingly re.
epoLdad. MIR. j. Il. Roberts, on behalf
OF the society, made some.apDroprlatc
remarks. The present was made In
appreciation of the sermon that Mr.
Stengle preached few weeks ago to
the order in Union NJ. Il. Church on
the influence of Romanism. Mr.
Stengle went to-day to Port Deposit,
Md. where he has been sent rs pastor

the payment Of fine Of 300 and
costs, for violating the liquor law by
selling with out a license, was brought

Mousley did not ask any questions, or
make any denial of the charge, and
Judge Ball imposed another line OF
800 and costs.
There are two other charges still
pending against the accused, but these
are continued, until the witnesses can
be secured. II is alleged that Mousley
mas been running a speak easy for
some time, and IL these other two
charges are prosecuted, II will probably
result In his being held In jail for &C
least one year. But even then his
troubles will not end, as 1t Is currently
reported that as soon as he has finished
the time imposed by non-pnytnent OF
the fines to which he was sentenced. ho

States authorities for selling liquor
without having paid the special tax Inn
posed by the Government As 1t was
said tho business is still being carried
on at the house in Tindall Court, 1t will
