DR.. TWELFTH DEAD.
Lie Suddenly Passed Away Last Evening in
This City.

j. NJ. Eveleth, M. D., of Hallowell, died
suddenly in this city, last evening, of cere-
bral hemorrhage, or bursting of a blood
vessel in the brain.
He had come up from Hallowell on the
7.45 car and went up into the Masonic
rooms. When he got off the car, in COM
pany with c. X. Tilden, city treasurer
OF Hallowell, he met John Grant,
and the three went up stairs TO-
gether. While ascending the stairs the
doctor complained Of being short of breath
and that stair climbing was tedious.
Arriving at the head of the
stairs he went into the coat
room, where W. G. Boothby, treasurer of
the Kennebec Savings Bank was, and sev-
eral other members of Trinity Commandery
were sitting.
He took chair near the center of the
room, and, Mr.. Boothby noticing that he
seemed to have difficulty in breathing, re-
marked, "You seem to be little out of
breath, DOCTOR" He was then pulling off
his gloves, and got up and took seat on
the couch beside Mr.. Boothby and ask d
him to procure glass of water, which was
Immediately done. Two sips were taken
and then the doctor began to sink in his
seat, which attracted the attention of all in
the room. He sighed, and then the glass
was taken from bis hand. His collar was
unfastened, and one of the gentlemen in the
room rushed out for q ply stefan. DR.. Brickett
was soon there and in few minutes Drs.
Tuell and Frederick arrived. His heart
was very family beating, but in 10 minutes
from the time he first began to sink in his
seat he died.
The cause was due to the bursting of a
blood vessel in the brain. He had not
wholly removed his gloves or taken off his
overshoes. 1t was about SIS when lie
passed away, surrounded by body of
brotherly men, for DR.. Eveleth had been a
Mason of long standing and member of
Trinity Commandery of this city during the
past two and halt years, during which
time he had been frequent attendant at
the meetings. He was a Mason in every
sense of the word and had always mani
tested deep interest in this organization.
The doctors family at Hallowell were
Immediately notified and an undertaken
summoned.
DR.. J. M. Eveleth was born in Windhsm
in 1925. He graduated from Bowdoin COL
lege in lS49. He lived in Mech mic Falls
number of years before coming to Halo
we'll. He had resided in Hallowell about
Is years. He was city physician for several
years in succession. He was a
member of the South Congregational
church, also clerk of the parish.
Last year he had much serious trouble
with his foot, which rather impaired his
general health. He had two daughters |;
Miss Abtie Eveleth, now at Pougikeepsie,
N. Y, and Miss Lucy Eyeleth at Waterford,
Maine; and one son, Archie Eveleth ct
Stonington, Mass.
DR.. Eveleth was a physician of high
standing AMI we'll known, especially in the
cities along the Kennebec. He was uni
versally respected, and news of his death
will come as a personal bereavement to

PRETTY ROADSiDES.
A Wide-Awake Woman Offers Several
 Sensible Suggestions

Sensible Suggestions.
 Now that the ne Hspapers are agitat- ing the subject of good roads, would it not be advisable to say word in re- gard to roadsides? The city people ad- vocate good roads, especially the bicy- cle element which is rapidly lncreas- ing. What shall we do with those who disfgure our roadsides by dumping all the refuse of their back yards and pan tries, consisting of broken crocEery old tinware, tin cans, etc, by the coun- try roadside without leave or license? One of the beautiful mouftain roads leading from the neiglboring city which has been widened and improved it considerable expense to the town, as it is a popular and pleasant drive, has been made such dumping ground that, although the trees grow beauti- fully on either side, one can hardly find a spot of ground which is not GOV cred with back yard refuse. Ii these people who consider the whole coun- try free, would dig a hole and bury such refuse out Of sight, or dump it in | hole and shovel little earth oI CT it. doubtless nature would soon conceal their broken treasure. But at present, t Is not a pleasant sight for country

 people or anyone else, and this prac- tice should be discontinued. There is very little to encourage country peo- pie to beautify their roadsides. For in- stance, there is case very near home of a farmer having about half mile of land fronting public street, who has taken certain amount of pride in picking up all the stones and smooth ing off the land by the roadside so that 1t is green and level. Too level, in fact,s that people will turn down on to It and drive right straight up through past the front gate, cutting deep ruts, not only during the springtime when the roads are muddy, but in the warm weather if the roads are trifie dusty Of course, the people who do this have their own roadsides dug out in holes from which they cart soil to the barn. yard, or covered with heaps of stone picked up from the farm The road is always kept ln good repalr, hut there Is a certain lawlessnes3 about such things in the country that is discour- aging to improvements. and exasper- ating to would-he improvers.- s.-Alice E.

ONLY A SCRATCH NEEDED.
The Frequency of Blood Poisoning Among
 the Meat Packers.

The Frequency of Blood Poisoning Among
 the Meat Packers.
 ''It would surprise you to know" re- gently remarked an officer of one of our large packing houses, says the New York Sun, ''how frequent cases of blood poisoning are among our en- p1oyes, and the cause in most of these instances would doubtless surprise you more. A scratch on the hand from bone of ealfs head or pigs foot often disables man for a week, and, strangely enough, in almost every case that has come under my notice the scratch has been so slight as to be al most imperceptible.
 1.-The first intimation the man has of his injury is a swelling of the forearm, accompanied by smarting pain. Both swelling and pain generally extend to the shoulder, under which large lump sometimes forms Even after the pres ence of the scratch has been in this manner demonstrated it is often i'm possible to detect it. It is usually caused, in the case of the calf's head, by the sharp edge cn the bone of the neck, due to the carelessness of the butcher who sewers the head from the carcass. If he does his work well and his cleaver has severed the joint per fectly, all is well, for there is no sharp edge to cut; but if he has missed the joint by even hairs breadth, which happens in five cases out of ten, there is an edge on the bone that will prob. ably work mischief.
 ''Of course, none of these cases has ever resulted seriously, as prompt measures are always taken, and as we always insist that a man so injured i'm mediately consult a physician This rule we never vary, for we feel bound to retain a man on the pay roll while suffering from such an accident, even though he be unftted for work, and the unskillful treatment of an apothe- cary, on which many of them would like to rely, or the even less sat isfactory methods of home surgery, would only prolong the term of idle ness.'

SAFE FALLS 100 FEET.
Crashes Down Twelve Stories at
Nassau and John Streets.
Workmen Raising It Flee and
Only One Is Hurt.
Burke Stepped on the Safe IN In
slant Before.

A 5.ooo-pound iron safe. which was
being hoinsted to the top foor OF the new
Sheldon Building. at Nassau and John
streets. fell Just after / o'clock this az
ternoon from the twelfth floor, n dis
lance Of about 30 feet. with a crash
that shook the buildings for a block
around.
The accident was caused by the break
ing OF the windlass on the truck by
which the safe was being raised.
The tackle was rugged In the elevator
shaft inside the building, and the safe
struck the basement floor at the foot
Of the shaft.
1t was almost a miracle that no one
was ailled. The only person hurt was
Frank May. one Of the movers. who
was In the ago outside in Nassau
street, helping at the windless.
The breaking Of one OF the cogs let
the safe go. and as 1t neared the bottom
Of the shaft the windlass on the track
which was revolving like a buzz-saw,
parted and one of the pieces struck May
on his left elbow. causing a compound
dislocation. and then struck his left leg
bruislng 1t badly.
He was standing on the truck at the
time and was knocked into the street
by the force OF the blow. His compan-
ions jumped from the truck as soon as
they saw It wal impossible to check the
windla IS.
Several pieces Of the broken windlass
went through the p~late-glass windows in
the sheldon Building and smashed things
generally.
John Burke, another Of the safe
movers. rode up on the safe to the
twelfth floor OF the building. He had
Just stepped of at the landing when
the safe dropped.
In its DOWNWARD course the safe crashed
against the Sides OF the elevator and tore
away all the iron work casing below the
third moor.
A dense cloud of dust burst from tho
