Made BY Hon. VIM. w. Thomas to Maine
General Hospital.

A meeting of the directors of the Maine
General hospital was hold at the once OF
Treasurer Barrett yesterday noon.
At the meeting the surgical staff reported
to the directors that for best results an out
lay of about $l500 in the purchase of 1nstru-

no reason why he shouldn't pay the bill and
offered to do so. The offer was gladly
accepted. This is but renewed instance
of the many occasions when Mr.. Thomas
mas SO gener ously provided for the needs OF
the institution.

Logan, one of Lexington's most promi-
emit business men, was found in his
back yard at an early hour this morning,
with a bullet hole i'll his head aid a
revolver with two cham bers empty lying
