NJ. Stanley, first brought Lucy into
public moi CO at one of her receptions. A
year later Miss Lucy, then child of
seven, was invited with her sisters to ap-,
pear before the Prince and Princess OF
Wales at Sandringham. After their per-
Torrance the Prince stopped little Lucy
on the great staircase and questioned the
little lady on her age.
''It is not polite to ask lady her age,
answered the child, land you know you
can't have everything you want simply
because you are Prince"
The Prince and his friends laughed
good naturally, and after this rebuke his
Royal Highness held his lighted cigar
behind his back, and, with mock bow
of humility, asked the privilege of kiss.
This Miss Lucy Indignantly refused. and
amid the laughter of the guests assembled
in the hall below soampered off as fast as
her little feet could carry her.

MADE THE BOYS FAINT.
Gruesome Story of the Finding of the Body
of Engineer Allen.

Since the drowning of Ruel Gordon
and Chief Engineer Allen in the andre
sooggin there have been many rumors
of the finding of the bodies. says the Lew
iston Journal.
Saturday it was reported that some
boys had seen body below the site of
this South bridge. 1t was said that the
boys became frightened and ran to their
homes.
The story was partially Investigated
and,the conclusion arrived at that it was
all buncome.
| But there were few men who took
| stock in it, Two of the believers were
ex-Engineer Orlando Luques of the lower
Maine Central round house. and one of
Beaudoin. These men heard two of the
boys tell the story of the find the day it
happened. The story was told exactly
alike by both boys, who were interviewed
separately. They told it to these men, to
their parents and others that day, and TO
all of them it was the same story.
The four boys in the boat were Fred
Dennison, Peter Morrill, Nelson Paul and
boy named Willett, who lives at 60
Lincoln street.
In company with Engineer Luques the
writer hunted up these boys and got their
stories. Mr.. Luques was present at the
four boys interview and says the stories
by two OF the boys the day of the report
ed discovery.
Fred Dennison is the son of John Den
nison and he is a bright boy of 49, We
found him at school on Lincoln street.
He said he and the other boys were row.
ing in boat near the Morrow Brothers
slaughter house on the Auburn side of
the river. He and the Willett boy were at
the oars. Suddenly one of the boys
shouted, "See the body" They rowed
up to it and Peter Morrill, took a pick
pole and looked into the clothing They
could Zee the back of the mans head and
his shoulder. 1t was decided to tow the
body ashore, but when thoy started to
dc. so the body was turned around so as
to expose the face. The sight made the
Paul boy faint away" and on that ac-
count they let gosand went ashore with
out the body. The boys left their boat
and fastening up town reported what
they had found to Deputy Marshal Sanda
Police Officer Bolieu and others. The
Dennison boy went home crying and
told his parents between his sobs of the
horrible discovery.
Fred swears it was the body of the man
they saw. The body did not have On a
heavy overcoat. The other boys corrobo-
rate Freddie's statement 1t is the same
stony they have told from the beginning
and they stick to he text.
Nelson Paul says that it made him sick.
He couldn't look at it. The Morrill, boy
says that he noticed the side of the man S
face was bruised.
Police Officer Bolieu says that he inves-
tigatod the story and came to the oonclus-
ion it was fake. He took a boat and
went down the liver in the locality indi-
Gated by the boys, but he found no trace
of the body.
But for all that. there are people who
believe the boys story.

Good Friday and the Three Hours Devo-
ton,

Good Friday and the Three Hours Devo-
ton.
The Christian world believes that our
Divine Lord Jesus Christ. the son of God
the Savior of men, was crucified under
Pontius PLATE. In order to make atone
ment for the sins of the world, He offered
Himself a voluntary sacrifice on the
cross. He became obedient unto death,
even the death of the cross" The day on
which is commemorated the Savior's cru
citixion is the Friday before Easter day,
and because of the benefits which result
from the shedding of His precious blood
upon the cross. that day has been for CEN
turtles called good
From His earliest times the object of
the.ohurch has been to make the devotion
of Good Friday such as to help Christians
to realize the magnitude Of the sacrifice
offered on Calvary. 1t is the central day
of the worlds history and the Old Tesla
nent and the new, the Psalms and the
prophets and the Gospels give their wit
ness to the suffering and death of the
Christ.
This day may we'll be set apart for all
ptOlan6 ana common uses that CDrlstlan
men and women may meet together
about the cross and remind themselves
again OF the wonders of redemption the re
wrought in behalf of their sin laden souls.
To aid their devotion BY bringing more
wildly before their mind the scenas which
took place during the Savior's last agony,
special service Is now held in many
churches during the three hours from
noon till O'Clock. This service, held for
the first tins in this city in st. Luke's
Cathedral last year, was found so heIpf I'll
that it Is again appointed.
The devotions are simple AMI appropri-
ate consisting of familiar hymns and
prayers with brief addresses upon the
seven sayings of our Lord as he hung
upon the cross. The addresses this year
will be made by the bishop.
To those unable to remain through the
whole service the time of the singing of
the hymns gives fitting opportunity to
enter or leave the church.
1t is earnestly hoped that very many
persons will join in this service. The ca
thedral is always free, and it does its best
work in this community when by the
reverend conduct of services which have
been hallowed by centuries of use and
by cordial invitation 10 all TO partici-
patio in those services, it induces men to
believes that the church which it repre-
sents is deeply concerned in securing for
men, speace and rest for their souls.

SALEM, Mass, Nov. PA crowd which
filled the seating capacity Of the local
listen to the trial of william Kennedy,
charged with poisoning Albert F. Learoyd
OF Danvers on the night OF Novem Der o.
Judge Stafford Iresioed and District-At-
torney A. p. White represented the gov
eminent, while Donald NJ. Crowley Of
Danvers was counsel for the defendant.
The testimony given this morning after
the case had been formally opened was
but a repetition OF that presented at the
inquest, which WAS to the fact OF the
presence OF poison in the tea which
Learovd and others drank. Mr.. Lesroyd
formerly employed Kennedy on bis farm.
Kennedy had been discharged on account
OF his alleged attentions to Mrs. Learoyd.
In connection with the case IL developed
that sylvester Kim oaIl. also formerly en-
pIoyed by Learoyd. had called his en-
ployer's attention to the relations said to
exist between Kennedy and Mrs. Le-
royd. Kimbal died on September II

matter is now being invest igated. The
government desired to have this case
