Section of the City Ordinances. Said
buildings to be painted and kept in
tidy condition.
To the Mayor and City Council:
We, the undersigned, citizens and
taxpayers of Augusta, respectfully
represent that the present manage
ment of the Lithgow library in this
city in denying to the public the
privilege of inspecting the books upon
the shelves is very unsatisfactory:
that in our judgment the benefits of
the library are thereby greatly re
stricted and its usefulness impaired.
and that in our judgment the open
shelf system would much better sub
serve the public convenience and pro-
mote the objects for which the library
was established. We therefore re-
spectfully demonstrate against the
further expenditure of public money
for the support of the library until
there is more satisfactory compliance
in this respect with the condition
upon which the funds We're appropri-
ated, viz. the maintenance of a free
public library"

THE lNDIANs NOT GUILTY.
Evidence Did Not show That They Killed
Michael McMonagle.

Machias, Oct. 10--The SHADOW of crime
has been lifted from the three Indians,
Lola 4. Lola, John Stevens and Wallace
Mitchell, who we're held for the alleged
murder of Michael NlcMonagle The foun-
dryman Of ST. Andrews, N. B.
The case was brought up in court here
yesterday morning before Judge Strout.
The grand jury listened to all the evi
dence, but there did not seem be
sufficient reason for holding the prisoners
for trial, and Judge Strout discharged
them,
1t will be remem bered that Mo-
Monagle. while in company with the
three Indians, was I,addling across the
bay, bound for Pleasant Point. about
four weeks ago. In some way Mo-
Monagle's canoe was overturned, and he
was drowned, his body being found last
Monday on the beach at Perry, and fully
identified.
1t was claimed that the Indian Lola,
who was in the canoe with McMonagle,
had killed the white man by striking
him with his paddle, but the Indians
have all along strongly denied this.
The three Indians have been confined
in Jail here for three weeks. They left
for their homes soon after their dis
charge.
