SANFORD WORK. NaMEN.
They Are Studying the Tariff Question and
~ Are to Hold Meeting This Evening.

State Labor Commissioner S. w. Mat
thews was at the Preble House last even
ing, on his way to Sanford. where he has
been invited to speak this evening. The
present industrial condition of the coun-
try has made a profound impression up
on the workingmen of the country, and
set them to considering economic condi-
lions as never before. One of the signs
of this is the way in which, irrespective
of former party affiliations, they are
gathering into protective tariff leagues.
The movement, which is we'll under way
in other states, has been started in Maine
within few weeks. Mr. David Mclean
OF, Brooklyn, N. Y, was at Augusta last
Saturday night, and held meeting. II
was largely attended and great interest
was manifested. Mr.. Matthews was in
vited to be present and deliver an adj
dress, which he did. The workingmen
of Sanford, to the number OF about 300,
are joining in the movement and have
sent invitations to both Mr.. Matthews
and Mr.. Mclean, who will speak there
tonight.
Mr.. Mclean is native of Scotland
and weaver by trade. He knows what
labor conditions are in the old country,
and what they are here. His comparl-
sons of the two are said to be very inter-
esting and effective.
Mr.. Matthews said last evening that
the workingmen of Augusta were form
ing league, and that general state
league seemed to be under way.

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS.
Annie Eva Fay at City Hall Last Night

fair audience assembled at CITY Hall
last night to witness the experiments of
Annie Eva Fay, the famous medium.
After some difficulty and positive decli-
nations from several prominent citizens
who had been nominated, two young
men, James 0. Dobson and DR.. Rose.
mounted the stage to act as witnesses.
DIR. Rose objected to certain rope in
the cabinet that he thought would be
better somewhere else. He was asked
why he did not take his knife and cut it,
He said he would, and did, much to the
amusement and approval of the audi
ence.
After Miss Fay had been carefully tied
and bandaged, and even plastered, head
and hand and foot, to a firm upright, the
cabinet was placed around her ard the
wonderful performance began. How
Miss Fay could drive nails, play a guitar,
place a tin plate on her head, etc., in SO
short time, apparently immovably fet-
tered. though hidden from view, was
marvellous enough to satisfy the most ar
dent believer in supernatural power.
Her performances, when simply enclosed
in box, with her head visible, were
more wonderful. In some way, some
thing under the box performed all man
her of acts. requiring quick muscular eff
folt, yet when the back of the box was
removed, Immediately, the witnesses de-
clared her to be bound as firmly as ever.
Finally an open knife was put inside the
box, and somehow it cut the bonds.
Then Miss Fay was tied by the neck to
the inside of the wall Of the cabinet. the
knot being outside and held by one of
the witnesses. A pail of hot paraffine
and pail of cold water were placed in
side the cabinet with Miss Fay and out
of her reach. When the curtain was
pulled aside two perfect moulds of the
human hand, in parafine, we're lifted out
of the pail of water. These moulds can
be made by simply dipping the hands in
the paraffne and then in the water If
Miss Fay's hands made the moulds, she
must have freed her neck from the rope
held in the hands of one Of the Witness
es. These descriptions are simply sam
pies of the long and fascinating exhibit
ton that afforded an evening that it is
safe to say none of the audience regret

A deplora bic accident at Peaks Island,
Sunday afternoon, resulted in the death
of Prince c. Trefethen, Trefethen's Land
ing.
This is the cunning season at the Is
lands, and the accident was the sequel
of one of these excursions. Sometime
late Saturday night or early Sunday
morning Prince Trefethen, who was a
young nlan about % years old, with his
father, William Fl. Trefethen and neigh
Dor named Silas Adams. started for
Green Island to shoot wild ducks This
island lis about four miles out to sea
from Peaks. and is a favorite resort for
gunners. The usual method is for the
hunters to start from Peaks in the
middle of the night, pull to the Island,
set their decoys around it, then land,
secrete their dory and wait for day break
and the ducks. 1t is cold,, bitter sport,
lying motionless on the wind swept
rocks, after the hard exertions of the
four miles of rowing but il is a sport
which suits the temper of the true sports
man.
The Trefethen party arrived at the
island all righu. bagged eleven birds,
which was considered fair number and,
then started for home 1t was about 2
O'Clock in the Afternoon when they ar
rived at the float where they were accus-
toned to moor their dory at Trefethen' s
landing. AS the dory touched the float
young Prince Trefethen stepped out, and
then reached back for his gun to take
that out
The island hunters all use breech load
ing guns, and it is the general custom
to take out the shells as soon as the
hunting is over 1t had been the inva-
riable custom of the Trefethens to do
SO and when Prince reached for his gun,
it is supposed that he did so in the full
belief that it was not loaded
He was fatally mistaken in this. AS
he drew it towards him there was an
explosion, and the charge of shot struck
him fairly in the right breast, about
two inches above the nipple.
The young man at once fell over on

His body was carried to his own house,
where young wife with child about
three years old. was thrown into the
most extreme agony at the terrible home
coming of her husand's body.
YoungTrefethen was carpenter by trade
and well known on the Island. He was a
member of the local branch of the Col
den Cross.
Besides his wife, child and father, he
leaves mother and five sisters, Miss
Willette Trefethen, now in Iowa, and
Misses Jessie, Emily, Sadie and Grace
who live at home.
The sad event cast a gloom over the
Island, where the news spread with great
rapidity.
Assoon as the boat came to this city
yesterday morning the authorities were
notified, and Coroner Perry responded to
the call.
