Confirmation Services and Conservation o.
Cemetery

VCUCtVIys
At St. Augustine's church, today, al
10 o'clock A. NJ, will occur the confirma-
ton services of. several hundred young
people who have been admitted to com
munion during the past four years. The
confirmation services will be conducted by
Bishop LaFliche of Three Rivers, Mont
real. Bishop LaFliche is one Of the most
distinguished of the Canadian bishops.
He Is 76 years of age but wonderfully well
preserved. About half century ago he
left Montreal in birch canoe and pro-
ceeded to Hudson Bay and from there
through the Red River region and OH to
the Rocky Mountains preaching the gos-
pei to the Indians, wonderful undertak-
ing at that time, and one which would
be surrounded by many hardships even at
the present.
Following the confirmation services at
the church will be the conservation of
the new cemetery on Cushnoc Heights.
This will occur in the afternoon at 2
O'Clock. The procession will start from
st. Augustine's church, led by st. John
the Baptist Society and headed by the
Augusta band Several hundred young
girls dressed in white and carrying ban
ners will march in the procession, which
undoubtedly will be an imposing and at
FIR active one

FORGeR WAGNER.
Raised Check from 81 to $40 and u Now
In kennebec Jail.

In June, 1894, W. O. Wagner of this
city, forged check on Frank Wise of Gar
diner. was arrested and lodged in Kenne
bee jail, where he remained about 12 days,
at the expiration of which he furnished
bail and was released. Upon gaining his
freedom he left town, and when the case
came before the September term of court,
that year, Wagner could not BIZ found.
Hiram Kicker and wife of Randolph, and
A. B. Bowler Of Augusta, went suretisl
on his bonds. They, however, did not
drop the matter, but began operations to
learn of his whereabouts. After several
months they received word that Wagner
was in Lowell, Mass, doing business for
the Singer Sewing Machine Co.
Deputy Sheriff Cornish OF Bowdoinham,
who arrested him in Lewiston, and
brought him to Augusta, after he had
forged the check on Mr. Wise, was notified
and he went to Lowell to arrest him, hav-
| ing power to do so without requisition
papers. Mr.. Cornish arrived here, Satur-
day, with the prisoner, who now occupies
a cell In jail
A Journal man called upon Wagner In
his cell, yesterday. Wagner said that he
has been in Lowell since leaving here in
the employ of the Singer Sewing Machine
Co. The name he used there was W. G..
Lyon. He told the reporter that when he
forged the check he was hard pushed for
money, that his brother was In trouble
and he was trying to help him out. His
brother, Journal readers will remember,
was given dishonorable discharge from
the Kennebec arsenal. The altered check
was made out for 81 and he said he had no
difficulty in making it $40 and obtaining
the money.
Before leaving Augusta, after being re-
leased from Jail, he was married at Gardi-
ner. With his bride he went to Steep
Falls where they remained a short time,
after which they left for Boston and
Lowell.
Wagner remarked to the reporter that
when they arrived In the latter city, on a
Friday afternoon, last October, he had but
As cents in his pocket. After while he
procured a position with the Singer Sew
ing Machine Co., and has been with them
several months.
When he was passing down one of the
streets In Lowell, with the officer, toward
the depot, he broke away and ran for his
life. He made his way through double
tenement house, hotly pursued by several
officers, and jumped from window to the
ground, over ~ feet, but the fence around
the house being high he was unable to
escape
There is no doubt but this case will 60
hard with him. He wrote letter to his
wife at Lowell in which he told her to dis
pose of all his possessions, to kill the dog
and sell the pups and come to Augusta, as
he would probably be in jail for some time.

c0BBOsseEc0NTEE REGATTA.
4 Splendid Breeze and a Race Full Of Excite.
ment and Sport.


The postponed regatta at Hammond e
grove, Lake Cobbosseecontee, was sailed,
Saturday. There was a splendid breeze
and the time made was good.
The start was made at 2.45 from the
cafe shore, and the distance was twice
around triangular course to windward
and return.
There were more than the usual num-
Der OF mishaps, owing to the stiff wind,
out nothing serious happened to mar the
pleasure OF the day. The Lady of the
Lake fouled the stake boat, the Emma
Belle parted her sheet and lost her jib
boom, the Anna S. and the NJ carried
away their masts, and numerous other
boats not covering the course had similar
accidents.
The judges were 81. NJ Packard, A. D..
Ward, j. F. Pierce, c. X. Howe, G. A..
Robertson and F. f. Became.
The steam launches Mascot Capt IA.
Robertson; Crystal Wave, Capt. Fred e.
Beane; Golden Rod, Capt. Charles l..
Spaulding, and Catamaram, Capt. Charles
X. Howe, were in attendance taking the
judges over the course to see fair play.
The prizes were: First class, first prize
silver cup; second prize, bunting flag
Second class, first prize, blue and white
silk banner; second prize patent folding
anchor; third prize, boat hook.
Third class, first prize, red silk banner !;
second prize pair eight-foot oars; third
prize, boat clock.
Had not the accident happened to the
Emma Belle, Capt Smith would have
been the owner Of the cup as he had won
1t twice In succession and would undoubt-
edly have won it this time.

appearance. The boomerangs are
thrown with a spinning motion,
flying with great force, sometimes
reversing as often as twice, and
invariably returning at or close to
the thrower's feet. The band is
under the leadership of King Bill,

From Mr.. Jno. Ii. Henry, of
Henryville, La, we learn the fol
lowing: Saturday night, Arthur
Lacour (colored) went down the
railroad track, presumably to 60
home. He must have gone to sleep
on the track, for several hours Ia
ter, man stumbled over his gun
and portions of his body, scatter
ed along the track. A search re-
suited in finding pieces of the un-
fortunate man for half mile. He
was literally ground to pieces,
there being nothing by which he
could be identified, except his gun
and his clothing.
Deceased was a hard working
colored man, but unfortunately ad-
dicted to bringing. As his killing
was entirely accidental, the rail
road company was exonerated.
