the like OF which it has not known for
years, il ever. An all day court has
been in session today. Trial Justice B.
Z. Curtis of Richmond presided. The
following liquor cases have been before
the court: Reuel Williams, seller of the
ardent; Clarence Bates, single sale; Mrs.
Lizzie A. Bates, single sale. All of the
above were placed under $500 bonds each
for appearance before the April term of
court at Bath. Only last week, Everett
Starbird was before the court and placed
under $500 bonds for the same offence.
The friends of tenn p erance are rejoicing
over the work done, and it is whispered
that the end is not yet. Some of.the sell
lers have left town for vacation, but
warrants will be issued. it is said, for
now the movement is started to enforce
the law, it shall be carried through, so
say the compliments in the cases.
Events are awaited with interest by
the people of the town.

neror criticised severely the Agrarians. who
have giyen currency to the Epigram. "Ohne

men may find a positive cure for
Consumption, but it is a great
thing to be able to prevent it,
and in its early stages even to
cure it. The only remedy yet
known to prevent, as well as to
cure in the early stages of the
disease, is SCOTS Emulsion of
Cod-1iver Oil with the Hypo-

WILL FIGHT A DUEL.
Brothers-in-Law Have a Quarrel that
Must Be Wiped Out in Blood.

Boston, March 13.-In the Parker
House billiard room this morning Wal
ter Scott Hale of Haverhill, Mass, had
words with Thomas Gilroy, Jr., son of
ex-Ma Mayor Gilroy of New York, and dur
ing the alteration Hale offered to fight
Gilroy. The latter declined, and said he
preferred to meet Hale with pistols.
Hale accepted and they agreed to meet
in New York.
Hale claims that while he was in the
navy his mother received his monthly
allowance from the estate of the late
Hon. E. j. NJ. Hale of Haverhill, and used
the money in furnishing a house for
young Gilroy and his wife, the latter be-
ing a sister of young Hale. Hale brought
suit against his mother, which has been
continued to April lst. 1t is alleged that
he today accused Gilroy of living on his

IN HORRIBLE SHAPE.
Startling Charges Regarding the Condi-
ton of Alfred JaiI-Rats and Mice Ran
Across a Dying Prisoner.

Sanford, March 13.-The remains of
eide and incendiary, who died in Alfred
Jail last night were taken in charge by
Undertaken Jenness of Springvale, and
removed to his rooms today, where they
will be kept until Friday, when they
will be taken to North Lebanon for in
terment. Fernald was conscious till the
emo, but was unable to speak. He W as
a member of the Golden Cross, and was
insured for $1,000. There is a great deal
of speculation in regard to the contents
of letter be left for his brother-in-law.
The Associated Press correspondent is
informed by good authority that the rea-
son the letter is not made public is that
it would create scandal in certain FAM
lilies, and throw no additional light on
the motive for the murder that the pub
lie is not already in possession of. Ru
mors have been rife for several days that
Alfred Jail was in bad sanitary condi-
tion, that the beddingiwas infested with
vermin, and that the mice were SO thick
that they would run across Fernald as
he lay on the bed or the floor of his cell
and other matters equally repulsive.
County Commissioner Isaac Hanscom
was notified of the reports, and went TO
the Jail today and interviewed several of
the prisoners. They repeated the charges
already made by them, to him. Mr..
Hanscom had talk with Jailer Went
worth in relation to these reports, and
he denied them all. Mr.. Hanscom in
forms the Associated Press correspondent
that the county provides proper bedding
for the prisoners, and care Tor the sick.
and he will see that they have it. A
thorough and searching investigation
ought to be made in Justice to the pris-
on ers and Jaller also.

ROMANCE OF DuELS.

New York. Sept. 28.-Count De Giba-
Goa and wife. of Fargo N. D., were reg
istered Monday at the Hotel Normandie
About year ago the newspapers pub
lished many columns about Count De
Gibacoa and Don Juan Pedro and their
wives. The men fought two duels over
their wives. The first occurred in
Paris. The last one took place in Cuba.
The bluest blood in Cuba runs through
Don Pedro's veins. His father was a
member of the firm of j. NJ. Ceballo &
Co, No. 80 Wall street. The son in
herited $3,00O,0 900, and more came to
him with his wife, who was Senorita
Rosa Verona, one Of the most beauti-
full women in Cuba.
Count De Gibacoa was playmate Of
Juan Pedro. His family is a branch Of
the Spanish royal family. Nine years
ago De Gibacoa married Senorita Ara
ngo. She, too. was afamous beauty.
A dispatch from Fargo, N. D., says
last month that Judge Mcconnell grant
eo divorces TO Francisco Perrar, Mon
talvo Condo Gibacoa, and Sonora Rosa
Verona Pedro. The papers set forth
that the wife of one had eloped with
the husband of the other Immediately
after the decree they left for New York
where they expected to be married. But
last week they returned to Fargo and
were married by the judge of the pro-
bate court. They then left for the
east, intending to 60 to Europe.

gy sleeves and neither garments, with

Nine. Melba said: 81 abhor masculine
costume for women. 1t Is ugly. and
Fave even on the stage never consented
to wear it.
The bicyclette, for which 1 confess. l
have no great liking, is simply a pre-
text. 1t is for much less motives OF con-
venience than for more mysterious rea-
sons that the skirt is sacrificed to the
ample breeches.' A sufficiently narrow
view of the case, as we think, will be
admitted. Mile. Brandes, who also
is not a rider, considers the bifurcated
garments in any form brutal" and
often ridiculous" Mile. Buffet gave a
view Of the skirt which is at least ar
tis;ic. She said: ''In the wind. the
skirt. which floats without ever being
raised, hiding the bicyclette, suggests
to the person at a little distance the
idea of Swimming the ground without
effort, and the person thus apparently
flying remains woman"
1t will be observed that in the above
opinions decorative considera tons are
unanimously placed first. while the
question of practicable suitability is
almost entirely ignored; but perhaps

Of literature were next sought. Nine.
Adam at once pointed to the fact that
the knickerbocker dress does not look
well when of the machine, but at the
same time she declared that women
should have complete freedom in their
choice Of what they consider suitable
costume for their occupation. "Gyp"
(Comtesse de Martle) said she thought
the skirt was impossible for the woman
who is real rider, and does not merely
make a show of it; nevertheless, her
word for the nickerbocker was "abomi-
nable. 1T is a battle between expedien-
cy and conventionality, and present in
dications seem to be in the direction of
a compromise. which will doubtless
take the shape of really useful reform
for those who feel the need of it. Among
those who will be thus benefited will
be the great and ever increasing army
Of women warkers. This possibility is
very plainly preceived in America,

London, Sept. 2S.-The London Queen,
in its current issue says: Nine. Sarah
Bernhard has given her opinion on
cycling costume, and has pronounced
in favor of the skirt for all but excep-
tional circumstances, all her feelings
being for the retention of decorative"
as opposed to what she considers mascu
line dress for women. In this she is
supported by other prominent women
in the French capital whose views have
been sought by the Gaulios, and have
been epitomized by the Standard cor
respondent. Some readers will smile
at the fear expressed by Nine. Bern
hardt that "the outdoor life encourag-
ed by the bicyclette may have danger
Gus and very grave consequences" par
ticularly in the direction of drawing
women away from the duties of family
life. Nine. Severine, Nine. Meiba Of
