Says they'll Not Fuse.

Editors ofthe Kennebec Journal
In your issue of March 2s, the following
item appeared in you local news:
"a gentleman who has had opportunity to
know what is going on in the camps of the
Democrats, Populists and PrOhib tionists,
says that movement is on foot to have all
three parties support Bateman, the Popu-
list candidate for Governor. So far DO un-
easiness has been occasioned by this report
which seems to be authentic"
Now in regard to the above wish to say
a few words. The gentleman referred to
does not seem to know what he is talking
about. 1t 10 evident from the above that he
is not State of Maine Populist and does
not know what is going on in this camp,
for If he did he would not make such cheap
talk. There is no movement on foot to
have all three parties support our standard
bearer, Bateman, 80 far as the People 8
party 10 concerned or in other words, the
Peoples party Of Maine will fuse with no
party. We will make our fight in the coming
campaign upon the merits of the cause we
espouse and abide by the result. We will
welcome the vote of the individual voters
of any party that believe we are right.
Resp'y yours,
Il. W. BoYNToN,
Chairman State Com. P. P.

There are in America perhaps 900 people
Who. in the midst Of plenty are starving to death.
Not paupers. simply people who cannot digest
their food. What 10 to be done with them? Give
them food that is already digested-Paskola.
There is no medicine in natures laboratory that
viii keep people who cannot digest their food
from starving to death. There is only one thing
that will do them any good flood. Ifordinary
food doesn't feed them. Paskola will.
Fat people who want to get thin abstain from
starch food. Thin. starving people. who want to
get fat, should do the opposite, of course. Pas
kola ID prepared according to this scientific fact.
1t ia pure starch fo-d. artiicially digested-not
"pepsinated." Pepsin doesn't digest starch. The
starch in Paskola is digested with tho natural
ferments discovered in the human saliva and pre-
pared from other natural products.
+ People who are starving, shox 1t by losing
weight. Consumptives ttarve to death. The loss
of two lungs wouldn't make hundred pounds
difference in your weight
What must people do who are steadily losing
weight? Eat starch food. But If that doesn't
help? Paskola.

A Worthy Couple.

Mrs. Rosetta Robbins, wife of Mr.. Geo.
A. Robbins of Vassalboro, was buried from
her late home Tuesday afternoon, Rev. l..
J. Mead of this city officiating at the fu-
neral service. Some facts connected with
her married life makes it of peculiar inter-
est. She was the daughter of Andrew Bon
ney of China, and was born Sept. 20, 1911.
She was married in October, 1884. to her
now surviving husband, and thus they had
lived in helpful and happy wedlock for
nearly co years. Their golden wedding
was celebrated at their home in 1884, the
cake served on the occasion being pas't d
to the guests by the man who, as
young lad, had acted in the same
capacity fifty years before. At this
time part of the cake made for the orisi-
nal wedding, in 1884, was distributed to the
company, and small portion of that cake,
nearly GO years old, is still preserved at the
home of Mr.. Robbins. Mr.. Robbins and
his estimable wife have lived since
ls4o--54 years-on the farm which is still
his home and which he himself cleared
and converted into q valuable property.
They have been IN honor to their kindred
and friends, and their town and to the
world, in their fidelity to the principles OF
Christian manhood and womanhood.

Mr.. Geo. H. Turner is identified with a
number of successful buriesque companies,
but in none has be enjoyed greater tri-

that the new law could be put in opera

the law has been well received, and its
operation may be depended upon to win
over to it any who may now be inclined to

Police Break Up a Nice Little
Prize Fight.
One Of the Scrappers Caught by
Cops---The Others Escape.
Ihs PsIlcs Has Lssg List 81 Spectators Who
were Present.

For some time there has been mysterious
rumors and whisperings Of : pugilistic con-
test booked for an early date, and all the
local sports were anxious for Tip" that
they might enjoy the fun.
Matters were seemingly al arranged, it
/, said, when one Of Il lads with aspira-
tons for pugilistic fame, backed out. The
day and place had been decided upon, the
Zip" had gone out and it would not do to
disappoint the boys, 80 a young chap was
engaged to fill the place of the man-with-
little-nerve.
Thursday evening good sized party
wendell its way by various conveyances
I, the place formerly known a. the Enter
mise stock farm, on the River road. 1t
was in two divisions, one not having had an
invitation, but getting there just the same.
It Is said that nice little ring was fixed
with ropes and padded posts, and that the
30 or more spectators had lots of fun.
The JOURNAL, not having been invited to
send reporter, does not vouch tor the cor
rectness of all the reports concerning the
affair, but it IL said that the programme
consisted Of an "opening number" or
warming-up bout between two young fell
lows who spared for points, without dam
age to themselves or the ring.
The event of the evening is said to have
been finish fight for q purse Of o. be-
tween Billy Fox and Charlie Grier, AMI
commenced about o'clock. Billy has had
quite local reputation a. boxer and
Charlie has been said to be able to stand
considerable punishment.
The entertainment progressed smoothly
for some time. The applause was liberal
and not too loud. 1t indicated to the guards
on the outside that there was more fun on
the inside than out, and in they went.
About this time the second division Of
the crowd arrived. consisting of Deputy
Marshal Bachelor, Officer Mcfarland and
Special officers Druery and Spear. OF
course, being without invitations or pasts
word, they could not enter, but they made
themselves a. home, in spite of these little
drawbacks.
Ten rounds had been fought and gore was
plenty, Grier furnishing most of the paint
and Fox artistically spreading it on.
What caused it no one knows and no one
knows who caused or did it, but foul was
declared about this time. No one can tell
who fouled or why, but the verdict was
given out-a draw. The crowd then COM
menced to disperse.
The police were just then making active
preparation to effect an entrance, and
when the sports beheld the shining badges,
Z scattering took place. Where there
we're many there were soon but few.
Grier fell into the officers hands, and
vm locked up, but Fox made good his
escape-pro tenn. The spectators were
oil seen, recognized and their names josted
down BY the officers and will bs called on
Later. The timekeeper and seconds are
said to have suddenly developed great speed

The New York Grand Jury Looking Into
Charges Against Them.

Cnarges Against Them.
New YORK, Oct. 6.-The grand jury
took up Friday some of the accusations
against the police department made
before the Lexow committee. One Of
the subjects W as robberies and assault
in the street by organized gangs of
thieves, usually following professions.
The grand jury first called Superin.
tendent Byrnes, and then in turn sew
eral captains, sergeants and detectives.
The next witnesses were several WON.
en- who had testified before the Lexow
committee. When the grand jury had
heard all the witnesses the foreman
adjourned the inquiry until Monday.
A grand juror said that the grand
jury had not only taken up the subject
of the assaults and robberies in the
public streets, but had also inquired Of
Superintendent Byrnes why better po-
lice protection was not afforded to the
wards of the city lying furthest up
town. Byrnes said that the posts in
those wards, owing to the comparative
smallness of the force, were necessar-
lily so long that it took policeman a
good deal of time to cover his post.
Lawyer Golf had asked to have the
grand jury investigate certain matters
that it looked into.

destruction wrought by the great cy-
clone, which originated in the West
Indies, laying waste great tracts of
land and playing havoc with every

The steamer Tyran, which arrived in

account of the results of the visitation.
She came from Gibara, whittier she had
gone for q cargo of bananas. None
were to be had, however. The planta-
tions for miles in the eastern end of
Cuba had been devastated. About
Baines, 100000 punches of the fruit, it
was estimated, had been ruined. The
vessel managed to secure small cargo
of sugar and tobacco.
From such reports as were at hand it

the property damaged is estimated at
between two and three millions of dol

Judge Gaynor Declines.

New YORK, Oct. 6.--Judge Gaynor
has written letter to Maj. James w.
Hinckley, chairman of the democratic
state committee, declining to accept
the democratic nomination for judge
of the court of appeals. His action
was a complete surprise, for at con-
ferences held nearly every hour Fri
day, and which We're attended by
Mr.. Hill, Mr.. Lockwood, Judge Gaynor
and Maj. Hinckley, there was no doubt
of Judge Gaynor's acceptance. Indeed,
Senator Hill announced after the con-
ferences that the state ticket was in
tact, and Maj. Hinckley said that
Judge Gaynor had left for his home in
Brooklyn to write his letter of ac-
