ONLY A MINUTE OF PAIN.
Captain sIeeper's Sudden Death at a
Meeting in Rockland.
Especial to the Press.1

RocKLAND, August 29.-While the
board oficounty commissioners were in
session at the court house this afternoon
one of it's members, Captain Henry j.
Sleeper of Union, suddenly fell back in
his chair, and, after a few moments of
apparently intense suffering, passed
away. A physician was hastily sum
moned, who pronounced spinal apoplexy
the cause. The news of the fatality
spread rapidly to the Captains many
friends in this city. At the court house
all work was suspended for
the day. Captain Sleeper had
commanded number of large vessels
sailing from this port, the last one being
the i'll fated brig Addie W. Sleeper. He
also served in the United States navy,
entering at the close of the war. It was
to him that Admiral Farragut paid a
most flattering tribute. Captain Sleeper
was born in this city, June 27, 1892. His
political career, though brief, was sue
cessful. Two years ago he was nomi-
mated by the Republican party as can
didate for county commissioner He
was elected, receiving heavier vote
than any other candidate on the county
ticket He succeeded Franklin Trussell
of St. George. Captain Sleeper was also
post commander Of VIM. Payson Post,
G.. A. r.. Union, and member of the
Masons and Knights Templars.

SOME OF THE DEFENCE.
Denies the Prussic Acid Story
Suspicious Character shadowed.,

FALL RIVER, Mass, August 29.-Mis
Lizzie Borden denies positively that she
was ever at D. r. Smiths drug store.
where Eli Bence is clerk. The counsel
for the defence in the Borden case has
been apprised of the location of suspi-
cious man, said to answer the descrip-
ton given by DR.. Handy. The man is
now being shadowed by detectives in
the employ of the Misses Borden. An
other story given out tonight by Miss
Lizzie's nearest friends, approved by her
counsel, fittingly denies the stories OF
a quarrel between the twoBorden sisters.
On the day when the ''you gave me
away story was published, there was
caller at the Borden household in whom
Miss Lizzie had more than girlish in
terest. Miss Emma joked her about the
visit, and then said something that
caused Miss Lizzie to blush and
accuse her sister of saying things that
might possibly affect her maidenly re-
serve. ssWhy, Emma" she said. 'srl
never speak to you again. Two min
utes later the sisters were conversing in
the most endearing way.
The defendants lawyers were given as
authorities tonight for the following:
Miss Lizzie Borden probably heard her
mother struck down and perhaps heard
her fall. She Miss Lizzie] was busy
gathering about the house, putting irons
on the fire and pounding them on the
ironing board. Hearing her mother fall
would readily account for her readiness
to say that she had entered the house.

AFTER THE BATTLE.
All Is Not Yet serene Among Homestead
People.

HOMESTEAD, Pa, August 29.-There
was much expectancy and subdued ex-
citement in Homestead today over the
search for the guns of the captured
Pinkertons ordered for this evening.
Much of the reluctance in giving up the
arms lies in the fact that the possession
would fix the Homesteaders' compucity
in the riots and this evidence r ht be
used in bringing suits. Two n. .onGhs ago
today, the great steel works here shut
down. So far as the men are concerned,
there is no weakening nor do the major
ity express any doubt of victory. They
are conducting surprisingly strong
fight considering the number of men and
mixture of races and trades. All are be-
ing held in line and show much en-
thusiasm. The firm naturally insists, SO
far as it is concerned, that the strike is
over.
It was learned this afternoon that the
Pinkerton agency some time ago semi 40
men into the mill as non-union workmen.
These men deserted in small squads and
were taken into the strikers ranks.
They gained the confidence of the
Amalgamated leaders and have, it is
said, gathered considerable evidence
against the participants in the riot of
July 9th. against whom they will make
| informatpns. Il is also said that they
have discovered the hiding place Of the
cap tured rifles.
Arrests, but No Rifles.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, August 20. This af-
| ternoon. William Oeffener and M. j.
Connolly, strikers, were arrested on war
| rants sworn out by Pinkerton detectives,
charging them with riot and aggravated
| assault. The Pinkertons have sworn out
| warrants against IA others on the same
charge. None Of the rifles have been
found

Was Mad-Others Call it a Fit.
Especial to the Press.l
BIDDEFoRD, August 29.-Biddeford
Pool, usually so quiet, was terribly ex-
cited today over mad dog scare. The
dog died from natural causes before he
could be found to be shot, but not be-
fore he had bitten three persons and as
many dogs.
Usually the only event that breaks the
monotony of life at this peaceful sum-
mer resort is the arrival of the steamer
from this city twice day. This morn
ing, however, the passengers on the
steamer were surprised to see the Pool
inhabitants up in arms and evidently de-
termined to shoot something. Every
man who could raise a bird gun or an
old army musket and could also raise
courage enough to venture out of the
house was out on the hunt for that dog.
The dog, which was owned by party
camping out at the Pool, had cleaned
out the settlement pretty thoroughly
and after biting several had disappeared.
One boy was bitten quite badly on the
wrist, but a man and another
boy only received slight bites.
The dog was finally found
at the back part of the Pool dead and it
is claimed by some that he died in a fit
and was in fit when he made his dash
through the town. Others believe he
was mad and expect serious results.
One of the widest runaways ever wit
messed in Saco occurred this afternoon.
One of the horses of ex-Mayor Lowell's
black span became frightened while
standing in front of Mr.. Lowelps new
house on Main street and started off fu-
riously. He went through several side
streets and on turning into Vernon street
the phaeton went over and was dragged
the whole length of the street. The car
riage was wrecked and the horse cut up
considerably. No one was in the team
when it started.
