NARROWLY ESCAPED.
Father KIauder and Hon. w. II. Looney in
Smash Up.

Last Friday Hon. William H. Looney
Went to visit friend, Father Klauder,
the local priest. The latter met Mr..
Looney at the Z railroad station
at North Whitefield with shorse
and carriage. While driving away
from the station the horse became fright
ehed at hand car and ran away. Faith
or klauder was thrown out of the car
rlage and was badly injured about his
chest. He was rendered unconscious and
had one rib badly injured.
The horse kept on running and Mr..
Looney in order to save himself jumped
into ditch and strange to say escaped
unhurt The horse kept on and ran
against tree by the roadside. The car
rage was demolished and Mr.. Looney is
congratulating himself upon his narrow
escape.
Fl. Klauder is now able to be out but
is still very weak.

Trial Justice NTcAIannus to Come before
Judge Robinson.

Trial Justice McMannus to Come before
Judge Robinson.
Trial Justice McMannus, of Cape Eliza
beth, will be up before the municipal
court this morning, charged with selling
liquor. Saturday night Deputy Sheriffs
Firth and Plummer went to the Forest
Garden House on the Cape Cottage road
and seized quantity of liquor. II is
claimed that Mr.. McMannus was in
charge of the liquor, although he denies
that he was anything but a boarder. 1t
is thought however, that he will not con-
test, but will pay his 500 and costs.
Trial Justice McMannus has had rather
a sensational life lately. Not long ago
he had q suit in court, claiming that his
wife had been previously married, and
that that marriage ought to be annulled.
Mr.. McMannus appeared at Cape Eliza
beth as a regular army soldier and when
his term of enlistment expired settled at
South Portland.

ON THE KITE TRACK.
First Day Of the Racing Meet at Old
Orchard.

Large Crowd and Fast Traek-Dexter X.
Deering Horse Wins Six Heat Race
in the $50 Trot-veta Captures the
2.13 Pace, and Madeline Pollard the
2.25 Pace.
The second racing meet of the season
at the Old Orchard kite track began yes
terday under favorable conditions. The
afternoon was excessively warm but a
strong southerly breeze swept across the
track and made the grand stand about
as comfortable a spot as one could find
on a hot day.
The ladies formed the largest portion
of the attendance and seemed by far the
most enthusiastic spectators in the grand
stand. A band which was engaged to
enllyen the tedious waits between heats
succeeded admirably in this regard and
having played its repertoire of popular
airs retired from the scene about the
middle of the afternoon amidst the
plaudits of the crowd.
The 5hree races which were on the card
for tho afternoon were interesting and
we'll worth seeing. Mr. Frank Walker
itioiated as starter and it ia needless to
say the field in every heat was sent away
in excellent shape and without any of
those exasperating delays which make
trotting races to the ordinary spectator
SO uninteresting. The other judges were
Mr. Allen Lowe, the well-known news
paper man, and MrW. A. Whittier. Mr..
Charles Barnard of Boston served as
timer
The 2. 80 trot was the closest and most
exciting of the afternoon. There were
seven starters in this race and among
them were nearly all of the old Righy
fayorites eligible to this class.
Agnes, race winner at the meeting
at Rigby last week, found little difficult
ty in landing the first heat, while Dexter
<, driven by Ira Woodbury. OF Portland,
and owned by Patrick Kane of Dee,ing,
who was the favorite in the pools, fin
ished fourth.
In the second heat of this race Dexter
K did much better and passed under the
wire an easy winner making a very
close finish with Chazy Boy and Agnes.
DioAo
came In the next to the last horse in the
procession. Chazy Boy, another Rigby
race winner last week, finished first.
In the next heat Woodbury. got another
mortgage on the lead at the send off

The Care Of the Aged.

When a man or woman passes sew
enty years Of age, great care should
be given to tho conditions surround
ing him or her for the prolonging of
life. The vital forces are greatly en-.
fesbled at that period of life, and the
powers of resistance in Consequence
of age are the weakest. A man of
three score y. ars and ten, and over,
is like an old machine that b. proper
care given to its coddition has been
kept running many years, and is still
atle to to do work, but its wheels and
axles and piaions are much worn and
are rickety, and if it should bo push.
cd, tven to small extent, in excess
of its diminished powers, it breaks
down and cannot be repaired, for ev
cry part of it is shattered. Bat if
worked carefully and intelligsntly by
q person who understands its eondi-
ton and knows its capabilities, it can
be kept in action a much longer
time than would be possible, ifa care
less engineer controlled it. In these
fast times, however, it is generally
not profitable to husband the re-
sources of an old machine. But this
S not true as regards our old men
and women. 1t is desirable to hold
an to them as long IS possible, and
+ We can sucssed in prolonging their
ives fvs or ten yeare, or more, it
will greatly enhance our happiness.
