A fIsTIC ENCOUNTER
In Richmond Cemetery Draws Gig Crowd
Two Unruly Boys.

RICHMOND, June 6.-(Special.) BY pre-
vious arrangement. two chaps repaired to
the Bl,ir cemetery Tuesday evening to
settle in fistic encounter feud that had
been brought over from last Sunday alter
noon.
Coming to spot where the belated bird
is wont to carol its evening song, the battle
was fought to finish in the presence of
about 200 people.
After washing up at the brook by the
mineral spring, Bert Perry, the vanquished
knight, returned to the village and was
locked up by Officer Rowe. Later, Smith
Brown, the other combatant, gave himself
up and was also taken to the lookup.
A consultation was held over the matter
by Selectman Curtis ami Officer Rowe who,
after admonishing the parties against future
misconduct, allowed them to depart in
peace.
1t seems that the fight was over girl
who had entbroned herself in the affections
of each of the youthful pugilists.
On complaint Of Truant Officer Call,
Charley Rogers and Archie Kidder, aged
l3, were sent by Justice Curtis, Wednes-
day, for truancy, to the reform school dur
ing their minority.

NINE sAusa1s
The Size Of the Overwhelming Defeat Of n.
81 Sc. by Colby.

WATERvILLE, June 6.-(Special.)-
Nine ciphers all in row, How pretty
they looked to the Colby crowd The en-
thusiasm of the convention in City hall was
eclipsed by that on the campus this after
noon.
The Maine States came here flushed by
theis victory over the Bates at Lewiston,
yesterday, and we're confident of taking the
Colby's into camp. But they found a snag
in Patterson and only succeeded in finding
the ball for three hits and two of them
ought to have been taken in by our flelders
One was clean drive to left field, but the
poor boy who got it died at second.
The Colbys won the game fairly, but the
shutting of the visitors out without a run
was luck, dead luck, such as could not have
been attained by Tufts bull terrier pup
mascot or any ether hoodooing power.
Seventeen of the Maine State BOYS got
to first base, three or four around to third
and one was caught at the home plate as he
was attempting to score.
The crowd was happy all the time, but
when the OronO boye came to bat in their
half of the ninth the question was not
"Will Colby lose the game?" but "Can
they be kept from seoring?" They could
and were.
Patterson pitched a handsome game for
Colby and Coffin backed him up behind the
bat in excellent shape. Hoxie played
good game at second and Purinton made a
difficult catch of foul close up to the
bleachers. Osborn played his usual fine
game at first and all played like men when
the team got in tight places.
De Haseth played good game for Maine
States. Haynes was knocked out of the
box in the second inning and Bass pitched
for the remainder of the game.
Following is the score

WE'RE NOT BLOODTnIRSIY.
But Maine Has All The Virtues Ascribed 10
Her.

SAN Francisco June G.-State of Maine
day was celebrated at the Mid-Winter Ex-
position today and many turned out to do
honor to the Pine Tree State. The exer-
| cises were held in Festival hall under the
auspices of the State of Maine Association,
which included addresses by President Day,
Frederick Il. Whitney, Director General
DeYoung, Gov. Colcord of Nevada, ex-
Congressman Hilborn of Nevada, and a
poem by J. G. Severance.
Prof. Ebenezer Knowlton, q native OF
Maine and vice-president of the local asso-
citation, delivered the Grafton in which he
said 1--WE honor Maine because she has
proved very fruitful birthplace Of the
noblest physical, mental and moral manl-
| ness because she has ever furnished the
| cradle of the loftiest patriotism the nursery
OF the ablest statesmanship, the home of
the most unspotted public integrity. We
honor the conspicuous abilities and
| unsullied life record of her
public officials, state and federal.
| Our minds instantly recur to Fessenden,
Morrill,, Hamlin, Blaine and Reed. We
may gather additional cause for thankful
ness and self graduation if we turn for a
moment to the brief roll of the few things
for which we honor our native state,
because she has them not. Do
you seek armies, ragged loaf
ers, impudent bummers, dangerous tramps
You must look elsewhere - Maine
has them not. Are you looking
for internal plots, murderous foreign ansr-
chists who plot them-not in the Pine Tree
State will you find them. Tall pines are
| quite too handy, strong hemp quite too
plenty, sturdy arms quite two willing. DO
you search for dog-in.the -manger striker,
who will neither work himself nor let capa-
BILE and willing neighbors do SO? The cli-
mate of Maine is quite too discouragingly
arctic for such non-industrial reptiles horse

most appropriate goose feathers TOO threat
