THE CLAM CONTROVERSY,

A Chapter of the Dispute Between the
Towns of Yarmouth and Cumberland LIS
Heard in the Portland Municipal Court
Two of Hamilton's Men Are Captured by
Yarmouth Authorities, and There Re-
suits Case Which VIII Go to the Law
Court.
In the Municipal Court room yester-
day forenoon was heard a chapter OF the
clam controversy between the towns OF
Yarmouth and Cumberland. The other
day Deputy Sheriff C. L. Buchanan of
Yarmouth, arrested Sherman NJ. Hamil-
ton and George W. Hamilton, Jr., while
digging CLANS on the Yarmouth hats, the
charge being that their act was contrary
to the recent vote of the Yarmouth town
meeting that it shonld not be legal to
take CLAIMS within its limits excerpts in
the months of November and December.
This vote was passed by the town meet
ing under authority given by section rs,
chapter 40, if the Revised Statutes, which
specifies that towns may regulate the
taking of CLAIMS within their own limits.
The two men arrested were employees
of Hamilton G. Co., the extensive clam
dealers of Chebeague Island. and they
were working on the Yarmouth flats un-
der the claim of the town of Cumber-
land that her people have equal rights
there with the people of Yarmouth. The
towns of Yarmouth and Cumberland
were originally one town; but in 1921
Cumberland was set off as a separate
town. The separation was made by act
of legislature, and the act of division be-
sides defining the territorial limits of the
new town, specified that the right of
mussel mud, rockweed and shell fish,
which has been in common from time
immemorial, shall continue in common
as before.
Under this act the people of the two
towns have dug CLAIMS on the flats with
out hindrance. The territorial limits of
the division gave Chebeague Island to
Cumberland, and Cousins and Little
Johns islands to Yarmouth. I here are
clam flats on Chebeague, and smalliones
on the mainland shores of Cumberland;
but the best fats are undoubtedly in the
limits of Yarmouth, around Cousins and
Littleiohn's islands and in Broad Cove.
As time has gone ON the Cheabeague
islanders have become great clam dig
gers, the enterprising firm of Hamilton
& Co. having built up a great business.
Of course great portion of the CLANS
which this firm take are taken from the
Yarmouth fats.

THE POPE'S JUBILEE.
The 5Oth Golden Jubilee of Leo XIII,
Celebrated With Great Pomp at
Rome, on Sunday Last.

The 50th Golden Jubilee of Leo XIII,
Celebrated With Great Pomp at
Rome, on Sunday Last.
Leo XIII, Joachim Vincent Raphael
Lodovico Pecci, was born at Carpineto,
Italy, March 2, 1910. He was the fourth
son of Count Domenico Lodovico Pecci
and Anna Prospect Buzi Pecci.
When he was only fourteen years of
age he was sent to the College Romano,
where he at once attracted attention by
his studious habits and readiness in ac
quiring knowledge.
In 1880 he entered the Georgian Uni
versity, won the degree of doctor of the
ology in 1882, and, after several years of
training in the College of Noble Ecclesi-
astics, be came priest.
On January 1, 1888, Leo XIII began
the celebrat, on of the golden jubilee of
his ordination as a priest. 1t is esti-
mated that 10000 persons were present
in st. Peters when he celebrated mass
on the high altar that morning. At that
time the Pope was the recipient of costly
presents from all the sovereigns of
Europe, except the King of Italy. Pres
ident Cleveland, who was then in office,
sent him beautifully bound copy of
the constitution of the United States.
The gift was carried to Rome by Mr..
John T. Morris, member of the Sun
staff, who was sent by Messrs. A. s. Abel
& Co. as a special correspondent to de-
scribe the events of the celebration,
which continued for weeks
