TRIAL JUSTICE SENTENCED.
Revival OF "TutS" and "WangdOo-
dies" Trouble in Maine.

The famous Baldwin case Of the "Tuts"
and "Wan ,dOodles' was freshly recalled at
Portland, Me-, when trial justice Arthur l..
Bowers was brought before Judge Bonney
for sentence. Some months ago there was a
revival of the old "Tu;s and "Wangdoodles"
trouble in Baldwin, and Bowers fired at two
men who were out in a field. He was ar
r,stei then and was bound over by Judge
Gould.
When Justice Bowers rose Judge Bonney
said: II understand that the respondent Is
n mag g,stratr, n part of whose duty it is to
see that other men obey the laws. The mag
istrate himself should most certainly obey the
laws" lie then sentenced Justice Bowers to

NOT TIME YET TO ACT.
Attitude OF Uncle Sam Toward the
Cuban RpyOlutiOnists.

Much pressure Is being brought to bear by
certain politicians to induce the administra-
tion of this country to give some encourage
ment to the Cuban revolutionists Secretary
Olney does not believe the time has come for
the United States to take any action in the
matter.
IT, however, the campaign in Cuba should
drag on for months, American interests in
Cuba in the meantime suffering, the admin
istration would take hand. 1t Is not proba-
Bile that in this event this government would
act alone, but one or more European nations
would be asked TO join with the United States
In making such representations to Spain as
would leadto the conclusion of peace, with
the guarantee of such concessions to Cuba as
might restore tranquility in the island.

NOT IN TEXAS.
Great Fight Cannot be Pulled or I'm
That State.

Corbet and Fitzsimmons must find another
place than Texas in which to pull off their
proposed fight for the championship of the
world. The legislature, by vote that was
practically unanimous in the senate and only
little less so in the house, passed the bill
prohibiting prize fighting and thus accom-.
plished the purpose for which the governor
assembled it in special session.
The vote by which the bill was carried fur.
nishes the strongest proof of the sentiment
of tie state with reference to prize lighting.
The only raying point of the minority was
opposition to the emergency clause, which
carries the bill into immediate effect In the
senate the bill was carried with only one
negative vote in the 27 that were cast. The
senate made quick work of the measure.

AWAITING ARREST.
Insurance Men, However, not Much
Worried.

writers at Chattanooga, Tenn, has been IN
dicted for maintaining a trust. The warrants
are now being drawn and in few days all
the members will be arrested and bound over

The men charged with the law breaking do
not seem to be much worried, however. Said
one of them: 1--WE have taken no action in
the matter yet. There will be plenty of time
after we are arrested. The same state of af-
fairs exists all over the country but the courts
elsewhere have not taken any notice of 1t.

wishing to do the people harm through their
combination, but say that it makes things
custer for the insurers.
