A Coop THING AND NOTHING TO PAY. Just see what Dr. Greene offers to do for all weak and suffering people. He is the, most successful living specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases. His unparalleled offer to consult with anyone, free of charge, by letter correspondence, is>doing wonderful good. If you have any complaint which you do not thoroughly understand, and which you would like cured, write the doctor a letter stating just how you feel and what symptoms trouble you. He will answer it, giving a complete description of your case, explain ing the meaning of every symptom, and telling how you can surely get we'll and strong. He gives the most careful atten- tion to each letter, and explains your case so sthol oughly that you understand exact ly what ails you. All this costs you noth- ing, you have no doctors fees to pay, and you don't. have to leave your home. The doctor makes speciality of treating pa- tients through letter correspondence, and they nearly always get we'll. He is the discoverer of that wonderful medicine, Dr. GtRene's Nervra blood and nerve remedy. Write to him at his office, 35 West 14th St., New York City, and you will un- donbtedly be made strong and we'll.

A SERIOUS CHARGE.
A Well Known Farmer of Standish Accused
of Murderous Assault.

Yesterday morning in the Municipal
court an interesting assault case was
taken up in which two citizens of
Standish were interested.
Deputy Sheriff Robert f. Newhall came
to the city in the morning bringing with
him Eliab Blake, seventy years OF
age. Blake wore old fashioned ear rings,
and has a long snow white beard. Albert
E. Shaw, the plaintiff, is about sixty
years old
After Recorder Turner read the warrant
charging Blake with assault, he answered
by saying ~ amt guilty"
This is the story of the case:
On the afternoon of the day stated in
the complaint Shaw visited the home Of
Blake. The former had heard that the
old gentleman had been circulating
stories to 1.-The effect that..he had been
drunk around the village quite good
deal of late. He wished Blake to deny
this, in short to make an apology. Blake
however stood his grounds and instead of
appeasing the wrath of Shaw, served
rather to increase the anger. One word
led to another until at last both becoming
SO excited, Blake is alleged to have seized
a stick and hit his unwelcome visitor.
Things grew worse. Blake followed up
by taking a knife with which he made a
keen thrust upon Shaw. The latter
warded off the blow with his left hand
and that member received a st we're cut,
the blood flowing profusely.
Things had begun to reach a most
dangerous pass and Shaw evidently
thinking discretion the better part of
valor, concluded to start for home He
was just getting out of the yard when
Blake called him to come back. Shaw
had no desire of doing this. Then Blake
took a two barrelled shot gun and when
Shaw turned and looked back at him, he
discharged the full contents. The charge
was heavy one and the shot planted it
self into many portions of Shaw's frame
His face was well peppered while the
wounds received in the abdomen and legs
were so severe as to cause him to call upon
DR.. Harper of Windham.
These facts became known to County
Attorney True and by his direction Blake
was arrested and brought into court
yesterday morning.
Assistant County Attorney Webb ap-
peared for the prosecution and Henry W.
Swasey for Blake 1t was decided as a
continuance was desired to continue the
case to Friday, August 9th. Bail was fur
nished for Blake in the sum of $1,000 by
Blake himself and George L. Warren of
this city. Mr.. Shaw is a well known
farmer and always borne an excellent
| reputation.

The wheelmen Of Portland.

After a thorough discussion of the
matter the city government has passed an
ordinance restricting the speed of bicycles
to eight miles an hour, and requiring a
suitable alarm bell to be carried on every
bicycle and rung when necessary to warn
pedestrians and occupants of vehicles of
the approach of the bicycle.
Through the earnest efforts of the L.
A. W., clause compelling the carrying
of lanterns was stricken out.
1t is to be hoped that every person who
rides bicycle will cheerfully comply
with the regulations and carry a suitable
bell which he will use with discretion
and not for the annoyance of other
people. Pedestrians have the right of
way and the bicyclist must recognize
this, and try to avoid close situations,
which are calculated to surprise and
/! startle people into collisions which may
possibly injure the pedestrian and will
inevitably injure the bicyclist or his
machine. Keep to the right when
possible. Don't ride on the sidewalks.
Hold your head up high enough to see
where you are going and then limit your
speed to eight miles an hour, which is
fast enough for city riding.
Each league rider should spread these
rules amongst the young and needless
riders, whose ignorance Of the common
rules Of the road leads them to violate
them unwittingly.
TO the lead on castors" whose utter
|
disregard of the rights of others, on wheel
as we'll as foot, and whose fendish de-
light in SCATTERING the nerves of innocent
victims by seeing chow close they can
come" has led to the not altogether I'M
warranted prejudice against the cads in
particular and the innocent 80 per cont of
bicyclists in general, word of warning
With you out of the way the bicyclists of
Portland are now strong enough to get
anything in reason they may ask for in
the way of good roads. Handicapped by
your "cussedness" we have just defeated
a lantern clause. which would have
seriously crippled wheeling. We want
the streets Of Portland put in first class
shape, and we don't want to be crippled
by your actions, and as you are an enemy
of the public good it will give us great
pleasure to see you heavily fined If you
persist in reckless riding.
We trust that the police will enforce
the new regulations and will assure them
that the L. A. W represents the wheel
men of Portland in asking that the law
be enforced without fear or favor.

Chief Consul.
