RAID ON THE ROCKINGHAM,

tent 10 Sell

There was another liquor raid at the
instance of the Law and Order League
Monday evening was made ON com
plant of States Attorney Fits by
Officers Thompson and Bucmond
against the Rockingham hotel. A
case of Il quart and 10 pint bottles,
only one of them opened, was found in
the general storeroom of the house.
The states attorney came up Tuesday
and condemnation proceedings were
held before Justice c. ii. Williams.
Landlord l.. II. Moseley appeared as
claimant for the liquor, and denied
keeping it to be disposed of in viola
ton of law. The case VENT TO tho
court ON an agreed statement OF facts,
very nearly. Moselcy admitted that
the liquor was purchased several weeks
ago with intent to SELL But since
then or since his trial and fine AZ a
common seller week ago Monday, he
had changed his mind, determining to
have no more to do with 1.-THE liquor
business. Since then he had not sold
n drop. sas he swore and he is man to
be believed and he mad put it into the
storeroom intending to return to the
parties of whom he bought it, and all
that had been used of it had been used
by the cook for culinary purposes.
The state not only had no proof OF
sales in the week before the raid, but
the officers stateIthat there were no in
dicaitons of any. Fits argued for the
state that as the huor was originally
purchased with intent to sci nothing
in the mind of its owner since then
could after its relation as contraband.
But Geo. A. Weston who appeared for
the defendant raised the point that
the goods must be shown to be contra
Dand at the time of the swearing. out
If the complaint, which was on Mon
lay, and that the Intent to sell re-
erred to that time and no other.
Justice Williams reserved his de-
,ision.

MYSTERIOUS CASE.
Mr. and Mrs. F.. II. Brown. OF Montreal.
Found Nearly Dead

f. II. Brown and wife formerly of
this place, later of st. Adams and
since of Montreal, where he is the
Canadian freight agent of the Central
vermont, narrowly escaped death by a
mysterious poisoning Friday night at
their Montreal home. That evening
they entertained two friends. serving
light refreshments until about 10
O'Clock when the friends left Nothing
of unusual says, the Montre al
Gazette in its account, occurred
until 10 O'Clock Saturday morning.
when the neighbors of Mr.. Brown, who
resides in handsome house, No. i26
Elm avenue, noticed that all attempts
to awaken the household seemed un-
avalng. When several people had
called and received no answer to the
vigorous ringing of the door bell, the
neghbors felt there was something
wrong and at once sent word to tie
Nestmount police, who came and beat
open the door. Everything was still
as death in the house. Proceeding
upstairs and into Mrs. Browns bed
room. they found Mr.. and Mrs. Brown
both in an unconscious condition.
The maid servant was also found in
the same condition in her room. Sew
eral physicians were at once sum
moned. The servant seemed to be the
least affected, and was at once sent to
the Western hospital The medical
men set about restoring Mr.. and Mrs
Brown to consciousness which, in the
case of Mr.. Brown. seemed next to |
hopeless. All the known remedies,
including the stomach pump were
freely used. After Just one hour and
twenty minutes of unceasng labor Mr.. |
Brown regalned consciousness. With !
Mrs. Brown. however, it was a much (
more serious matter. Drs. Derrigo,
Mason and Hutchinson, Mr.. Benny,
and several other medical students
worked each in turn, trying to bring
back CONSCIOUSNESS by artificial means.
From ! | O'Clock on Saturday morning
until O'Clock Sunday morning, each
of the above gentlemen worked in turn
at the labor of artificial respiration.
After this II hours work, Mr..
Brown regained consciousness. and is
now believed to be out of danger. The
extraordinary features of the case are
that no poison could have been in the

tor both the gentlemen who partook

xlnd. Then, again, the idea of sutfo
,ation from any kind of gas is dispelled
Dy the fact that. on entering the
house. there was no smell or disagree ,
ible odor of any kind.
The contents of the stomachs of both
Mr. and Mrs. Brown and the servant
obtained with the aid of the stomach
pump. we're forwarded by the ply
jicians to DIR Bruerc, professor of ,
physiology in Bishops college, for l
chemical examination. From what
AN be gathered the case is one of
poisoning by some narcotic, probably !
Morphine. {
The maid servant can give no in !
whatever in the case. To :
Ter it appears to be as mysterious as
o an outsider.

Bogus Leather In Shoes.

For years." said a Maine man
ufacturer, "shoes of cheap grade
have been made of what is known
as leather-board. 1t is a COM
pressed paste. There is a factory
in my State which turns out tons
of it every month. Many of these
shoes are sent to Central and
South America and, as matter
of fact, thousands are sold here.
AS long as the weather is dry
they wear first rate, but when YOU
strike rain You are gone almost
surely. Two wettlngs and you want
to look out. When you invest in
your summer shoes be sure they
are what you want. Leather is
expensive and you can't cover
your feet with it for a trlfe. -
