A HARD.ExPERIENcE.
The Terrible Plight of Charles Roberts in
tho Maine Woods.

bangor. July 30.-Mr. Charles Roberts
Of Boston, has had terrible experience
III the wilderness of Maine, being lost
-FOUR days and nights, and being all OF
that time without food. He finally sue
oeeoed In getting out Of the forest, and
arrived at the house of Bowman CROCK
or IN Greenland. Tuesday.
Roberts, with party of two or three
Boston men, had been spending his sum
mer vacation IN the vicinity of Nicatous
lake, and all but Roberts returned home
last Thursday. Friday morning, after
his breakfast, Roberts started on fish
Ing trip up the stream. Having finished
and walked until he was weary he lay
down in sheltered spot and slept. When
he awoke he was completely turned
around and could not tell the direction
back to his camp. Starting Oft in the
direction he thought. must be right, he
wandered until night in the deep woods.
and Saturday morning commenced his
wanderings again, hoping to come out
at some settlement. Night came again
and no trace of civilization was in sight,
and with heavy heart he5prepared to
pass another night in the wilderness.
Another day was spent in wandering
streams.
Tuesday N orning Roberts reached
Sunk Hazel stream, which he followed
until he came out at Crocker's house.
many miles from the place where he
started. He was very weak from lack
Of food and fell In faint from which
he did not sufficiently recover to enable
him to reach the house In some time.
When he did get into the house he had
just enough strength to say ''I've had
nothing to eat In four days. Then he
tainted.
Proper restoratiyes were used andssome
nourishment was administered to the
man, and 1t was not long before he was
able to tell something Ct the hardship
through which he had passed. For food
he had eaten berries and grass. One
night during his wanderings he slept. in
an open canoe, and during the others
he repossd under boughs which he had
placed against trees.
During his wanderings he had worn
| his shoes completely out, and his feet
| and hands were badly blistsred and lace
rated by the underbrush through which
| he had pushed his way. What he expert
enced at night he says, was enough to
drive man crazy, as he imagined he
could hear wild animals close after him
| until daylight.
Roberts is about 20 or go years of age
and employed as a machinist in Boston,
he was brought to Oldtown by Samuel
Bradbury who was returning home
from trip to his camp in Greenfield.
| Roberts has gained sufficient strength
to return home, and left for Boston OH
| the night train.

Owners of water powers on the river
at Cherry field are much exercised over
p recent movement to compel them to
establish fshways through all their dams.
Within few weeks the fish COMMITTEES,
at the instance of number of petition
ers. served notice upon mill-owners that
tho law relative to maintaining ashways
must be- complied with. The law is an
old one, having been enacted in 1923, but
was for many years inoperatiye here. the
Narraguegus river having been exempted
by special act. But recent legislation
has rendered the Narraguagus again SUBJ
ject to the original law. This law pro-
vides that the dapls shall be open to fish
60 hours each week. from May until Au-
gust. The act further provides that tho
rassageway shall be one foot by four,
thus requiring space Of 567 square in
ches for the passage of water. Ii is con-
tended by those interested in the lumber
industry that such drain upon the pow
err at the season specified in the law
would prove serious detriment to the
business besides reducing the expendi-
ture of labor. $4,000 annually.
