The reason is not evident why

thing Is evident, however, and that
is that when the clothing Is drawn

tailor to have it remade so it will fit
This entails additional expense to
the men. 1t would be reasonable
to suppose that il the department
objected to issue clothing unmade,
they would at least select few
men from the service and have the
clothing cut by their measure, In.

CIRCUS LIFE.
Three Sanford YOnng Men Will Not
Try 1t Again.
Were Put Into the Deerins Cage Over
Night-A Long Tramp,

Were Put Into the Deering Cage over
Night-A Long Tramp.
Three honest appearing young men
spent Tuesday night in Chief ST. John S
cage at the Deering police station. They
had never been behind the bars before,
and in this case their detention was en-
tirely due to their misfortunes They
were Frank Lique, Nahum Ellsworth
Littlefeld and George Cote, all of San
ford. A week or more ago they enlisted
with fuckers circus at Sanford. The
free, joyous and peregrinating life of the
circus man cast spell over them. 1t
seemed that once with the circus there
would be nothing more to be desired in
life Alas for the decisions of hope!
They were with the circus about week.
In that time all their visions of the de-
lights of circus life vanished They say
that in a whole week they did not get
more than seven hours of sleep. Their
food was not satisfactory either
At Norway they decided to leave, and
started on foot, without money, for Port
land After two days of tramping they
arrived in Deering Tuesday night, their
feet SO sore that they could hardly step.
They met brakeman of the Portland &
Rochester whom they knew, and he told
them of good, clean box car standing
on the siding at Deering Point. They
found it and at once entered it and pre-
pared to pass the night
But some of the women who live in
that region saw the three strangers get
into the car, and became alarmed In
due time the alarm had increased to such
an extent that City Marshal ST. John was
summoned. He arrived late at night;
and, not knowing what characters he
might be dealing with, he handcuffed the
three men and took them to the Deer
ing police station, where they were
placed in the iron cage.
Chief st. John soon found that the men
were undoubtedly honest; and decided
to liberate them in the morning.
The kind hearted turnkey provided
them with breakfast; and they started
along the railroad for Sanford, happy,
but rather regretful that they had been
"behind the bars as they expressed it.
