He THREATENED TO KILL.
John Simmons of Gorham Arrested on
Grave Charge-His Barn Projected Into
the street-Town Officers Warned Away
at the. Nuzzle of Gun

Saturday, Deputy Sheriff Chute ar
rested John Simmons of Gorham on the
charge of last ThursdayH threatening to
kill Willis Bickford. road surveyor and
Lewis Mcclellan, one of the selectmen.
The story is that Simmons built barn
close to the line of his neighbours lot
and of the street. The barn shut in the
neighbours house quite effectually. Then
he built an addition to the barn, and
this projected into the street between
three and four feet, and shut in the
neighbor still more effecJually.
Complaint was made, and last Thurs
day, the above parties went to the place
with warrant to move the building,
but We're driven away sby Sim
mons, who, it is .alleged,
threatened to shoot them with gun
which he held. Saturday morning he
was arrested and brought before Judge
Gould in this city. The case was con-
tinued till Tuesday, when County.-Attor-
ney True will be present.
Saturday afternoon the end of the
building that projected into the street
was cut off. Simmons made no resist
ance when arrested, having got cooled
off. He has an ungovernable temper.
We understand that he is the only rela-
tive OF franklin Simmons, the sculptor.
The affair has created much excitem emit
in Gorham.

Yesterday Judge Reed decided rot to
divorce John and Frances Goodyear
Saturday the evidence was heard in the
case and Judge Reed pondered over it till
yesterday morning. He found after
weighing the evidence that the reputation
of both husband and wife were open to
suspicion and in giving his decision he
said that as long as the hands Of both of
them were soiled he would not divorce
them When the decision was rendered
Dir. Goodyear was released from Jail,
where he had been put for refusing to
comply with an order of the court, and he
wendell his way TO his home, very much
like AS if he considered himself imnigrat-
ing from the frying pau into the fire
and wanted it bad. Mrs. Goodyear
asked for one because John visited
places and persons of questionable repu-
tation and character. and John cross
petitioned charging her with the self-same
thing.
He has lived some eighteen years with
Mrs. Goodyear who. il Is said, was the
younger sister of his first wife.
"Yes. l am the most prosecuted man
alive" said he to reporter for the EAGLE
last night. They not only sent me to
Jail, but now they want me to live with
the wife who has brought shame and dis
grace upon me. / will not do it, l will
divide up things and tell her she can have
her choice of half and then she can go her
way and FL 20 mine"
John Goodyear is the proprietor of the
Goodyear house, and save the accusations
made against him during this trial be has
always baen regarded generally as pretty
square, open-hearted, generous man. He
has good many friends who do not be-
lieve that he is a bad man. Very few peo-
pie know Mrs. Goodyear. 1t is strictly a

LADIES EXPLAIN.
What Member OF the Circle Says About tn
Alleged Jealousy.

AuegcQ Je2iOuSys
Speaking about the alleged contention
or jealousy existing between the Woman's
Relief Corps and the ladies of the Grand
Army Circle, a prominent member of the
latter organization said yesterday:
1.-The Ladies of the G. A. r. are An indie
pendent organization and so are the Sons
they would be obliged to go out of exist
ence with the Post. They intend to per-
petuate the order as heritage for the
Veterans daughters, the same as the
Daughters of the Revolution. The ladies
of the G. A. r. honor every loyal woman
in like manner as the q. A. K. honor
every loyal man. But they see no reason
why either should receive into their
respective ranks those who had but
little experience of the trials and
suffering of war. AS mothers, wives, sis
tiers, daughters of the Grand Army or the
Republic they are surely sufficiently hon
ored They have their own headquari ers.
1t is not known why Caroline Harrison
Circle No. So should be jealous of Garfield
Relief Corps No. 40. Circle No. So has ex-
tended to them their greeting and best
courtesy at all times. BY our general
order it will be seen that it is part of
our duty to place the flag upon every dead
soldiers be he high or low in social stand
ing. The flag he fought to defend is with
him in his last sleep. 1t is the presidents
duty to ask the family if they desire the
flag as she did Coroner McCo!lIster. He said
he would be grateful for the ladies TO 60 to
Dunbar's at 2 O'Clock and place the flag on
his father, which they did, never dream
ing of offending any one. The Woman's
Relief Corps had beautiful floral wreath
which we admired and were glad they
had given. Having been a member of w.
r. c. for three years. never heard them
mention giving flag any occa-
sion for secret meeting was merely
obeying general order It would be
more fraternal if ell kindred or.
CARNATIONS were united aud built a
monument to the unknown dead. How
ever. there is surely room for each to build
one separately"

The meeting opened with song and
praise service, after which the sThe Super
INGREDIENTS Relations" were discussed
ably by Rev T. a. Bissel, Mr.. McCrea, HI.
L. Markham and w. l.. Byers. 1.-The
Superintendent's Preparation" was dis
cussed by Miss Della Smoke of Fairmount
University. The Superintendent Work"
was discussed by Mir. Mills aud Mr.
Drake.
The afternoon session opened with
a song service, contemplation aud
prayer. Mr. Switzerland presided.
and he spoke few words on the duties of
the church TO the Sunday school. He said
that the school should be surrounded with
spiritual atmosphere and that in both
school and church work there was need of
more of the consciousness of God on their
atmosphere. He said that the school sup
erjntendeut too frequently forgot his
school after it was over on Sunday and he
urged the necessity of keeping it in view
throughout the week as well.
Mr.. Mitchell of Kansas City, Kan,
talked about the Importance of the Bible
in the Sunday school, instead of the
Helps" This brought forth a good deal
of discussion, the sentiment being almost
unanimously in having each pupil own a
Bible and carrying it TO school on Sunday.
Suggestions were made as 70 the best
means of encouraging this.
MIR. Finney said that he had urged the
pupils of his school To have Bibles In their
classes with some success
Miss Goodell thought there was nothing
like having personal Bible in the class,
aud thought il would be better for the iu-
dividuals TO own the Bibles than to have
them owned by the school.
Mr.. Switzerland called attention to the
fact that in all the hymns very few of
them devoted attention to the praise of
the Bible. He asked somebody to write a
hymn with this end in view.
Mr.. Tucker of Eureka made a very fine
address on the subject 'The Superinten-
dent Leading Souls to Christ"
The Superintendent's Reward" was
the subject OF very able paper by Rev. j.
f. Plat, superintendent of the Congrega-
tIonal Sunday schools and publishing
society of Oklahoma.
1t was quite an interesting meeting and
the delegates were much pleased.
