Unmarked Graves.

A few weeks ago request was sent to
gentleman of this city asking if the
remains of former Portland man were
buried at Evergreen cemetery, and if so,
when, since to substantiate the status of
an heir, proofs of his death and place
of burial were necessary. AS the gentle
man searched the records he was astound-
ed that no such name could be found,
but one lot contained a grave marked
with similar initials, but different. sur
name. AS this was the very lot in which
the party was buried and the gentleman
had, fortunately, attended the funeral,
no further trouble arose. However, inves-
tigation developed the fact that although
the original records started right in 1854,
during the period from that time to
1881, imperfect records We're made, and
it is said that there are from two hun
dred to three hundred unknown and
unrecorded graves the locality of which
could now be found by proper investi-
CATION and the occupants name given.
This is duty to which should fall upon
the city and requires special investiga-
tion. From 1881 to the present time, 1885,
the records are believed to be accurate.
If this investigation is much longer de-
layed it may become impossible to have
matters in proper order, causing later
on much confusion of disa greeabIe ma

ALAsT PROTEST.
Congressman Boutelle Expresses His Dis
approval of the Dissertation of Memorial
Day,

Bangor, May 29.-Congressman Bou-
telle, who delivered the eulogy on Gene
raj Grant at the anniversary celebration
in Chicago, April 81, has sent the follow
ing telegram to Mayor Swift of that city
Bangor, Me-, May 20, 1895.
To Mayor Swift, Chicago, Ill:
Patriotic citizens throughout the north
have hoped to the last moment that rea-
sonable Difference to public sentiment
would cause an abandonment of the pur-
pose to dedicate rebel monument in
Chicago on Memorial day; but the latest
reports indicate the preparation for an
extensively ostentatious display. As a
fellow citizen and friend of yourself
and of Chicago, l beg that you may yet
exert every possible influence and autho-
rity to cause the promoters of this ill
Judged demonstration to desist that our
splendid Columbian city, the emporium
Of the west, in the state of Abraham
Lincoln, the chief martyr of treason, and
of John A. Logan, the warrior statesman
of Illinois, and commander in chief of
the Grand Army Of the Republic who
established Memorial day, may be spared
from the humiliation Of being the first
CITY in the north to countenance the
desecration of the day solemnly dedicat-
ed to the memory of the defenders and
preservers Of the nation. No loyal citizen
of the United States can grudge Memo
rial day to the loyal dead.
Sincerely yours,
G. A. BOUTELLE.

A GUILTY WIFE.
Shot BY Her Injured Husband-Her
Lover Escapes.

Portsmouth, N. H, May s9.-Joseph L.
Roberts, proprietor of the Belmont House
on Vaughan street, shot his wife through
the head early this morning and also put
a bullet into Edgar D. Stoddard, a well
known stable keeper Stoddard was dis
covered by Roberts occupying the same
bed chamber with Mrs. Roberts. Draw
ing 38-calibre revolver from his hip
pocket he fired at Stoddard as he lay up
on the bed. The bullet passed through
his ear close to the head. Roberts then
turned the weapon upon his wife,. shoot
ing her through the right side of the
head.
He intended killing his cook, but was
prevented by the fact that there were only
two shots in the revolver. Mrs. Roberts
was taken to Cottage hospital, where she
lies in critical condition. Roberts is
confined in a cell at police headquarters
He will be given a hearing this evening
The affair took place in the restaurant
and lodging of Vaughan street next to
the hotel kept by Joseph l.. Roberts
Last night Mrs. Roberts and her sister,
| in company with Stoddard and James
Flynn went on ride and did not arrive
at the lodging house until about O'Clock
! this morning
| Stoddard and Mrs Roberts went to room
one. Mr. Roberts was occupying a room
| in the extreme southern part of the build
| ing.
1t seems that his suspicious had been
aroused, for the couple had been in the
room only about quarters of an
hour when he burst into the room, re-
volver in hand. AS he did SO, his wife
sprung from the bed and retreated to the
| farther end of the ROOM exclaimirlg
For heavens sake, don't shoot. -
In reply Roberts said: Damn you,
I've been on to your game for some time
| and I'm going to kill you both. y He
fired at Stoddard and then at his wife
| After shooting his wife, Roberts struck
her on the face with the butt of the re-
volver. During the melee Stoddard took
the opportunity to rush from the house,
and after having his wound dressed, left
town and his whereabouts are at present
unknown.
Robert, after the shooting, said to Mrs
Small, sister of his wife, that he was
sorry that he did not have more chambers
of the revolver loaded, as he would have
shot her, she knowing of the intimacy
and had not told him of it.
| Roberts came from Somersworth to this
city and has been here about two years.
He is a stone cutter by trade and for a
time worked for O. F. Philbrick & Co. :,
before buying out the lodging house and
saloon.
Roberts was arraigned in the Police
court tonight charged with attempt tc
murder in the first degree. He pleaded
mot guilty" and was remanded to Jail
until next Friday morning without bail.
| Mrs. Roberts tonight, was reported very
nervous. Public interest in the affail
continues at fever heat.

A Big Deal in Corn.

The Transcript has repeatedly called
the attention of its readers to the fact
that Maine canned corn was selling too
low. and that at 60 cents per dozen it was
far below cost, hence at any moment
tbe reaction might come Tuesday the
sales were enormous. Burnham & Morrill,
sold out their entire stock, except small
a,nount of Paris held at 81 per dozen
The other large packers We're sold out, or
nearly SO. 1t looks as if, after all, Sep
tember will find Maine with but little,
If anv. old stock, and a good demand for
futnres, though not at the high price of
former years.

For the public, interest of course centers
in the bicycle races at Woodfords Park,

deavor has been made to rate them
correctly and fairly In the state cham
