T. Y. MORGAN, one of Ard
more's well known business
men, has accepted a position
with an alleged wholesale firm
of this city. Mr.. Morgan is an
excellent gentleman, and we
suppose his house is all right,
bat certainly it is no friend to
the city. We say this because,
for a difference of twenty-five
cents on the thousand, it sends
its job printing to Galveston.
In pricing goods with them
merchants would do we'll to con-
slider their policy. In doing Sc
they will certainly place their
orders where they can do the
best. Mr.. Morgan is all right,
but his house is a short-ordel
concern unworthy of local pat

SHUT UP SCHOOLS.
Peculiar Ideas of Economy Held By Bidde-
ford School Board.
Especial TO THE pREss.l

Bfddeford. June 29.-The Biddeford
school board tonight carried into practice
its theory of economy by dispensing
with the teacher Of physical culture.
There was also movement toward the
discontinuance of the ungraded school,
but final action was postponed. Til
Bradbury street primary school, whose
teacher, Miss Tarbox, recently died, will
be closed, and the school in District
will probably be discontinued. Mrs.
s usan Ham Piper, assistant teacher of
the Summer street grammar school, was
promoted to third assistant in the High
school, to fill the vacancy occasioned by
the resignation of John E. Kelley. Mrs.
Piper received five votes and Miss Lillian
Fowler four. A petition for the estab-
lishment Of a kindergarten was tabled. {.

ABSOLUTELY NO HOPE OF RESCUE.
This the Verdict Regarding the I'm
prisoned Miners at Pittston.

Crews of Men are Industriously Digging
Towards the Victims-The Work is
Very Dangerous Cave-in Most Exten-
sive in that Valley.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, June e9.-The situa-
tion at the scene of the Pittston mine
disaster remains practically unchanged
tonight. The company is making every
effort to reach the victims. There is ab-
solutely no hope that any of them will
be recovered alive. The rescuing party
that went in to the shaft this morning
returned at this evening and the fore
man said: 'No hope of rescue as
YETI
The situation inside is changing al
most hourly, owing to the continuous
"squeezing" "and on this account nothing
whatever can be told as to when the
men can be reached. The resouing party
tonight are working their way to the
point where they propose to start dig
ging tomorrow morning. They still con-
tinue to timber as they go and their
work is most dangerous.
Henry Mcmillan, inside foreman of the
Barnum mine, who went into the pit this
afternoon to make careful survey, says
that in his belief, the caving will con-
tinue more or less for week. The fall is
immense and the progress of the diggers
when they do commence to dig, will de-
pend entirely on the solidity of the call.
M inc officials from all parts Of this Sec
tion were on the scene today discussing
the disaster.
A conference was held during the day
at which reports were made to the effect
that the fall is the largest ever known
been running into the shaft since yes
te1day, and today the quantity is pour
ing in in Increased volume. In fact, it
| is feared that the water has filled the
place in which the bodies of the victims
are and it will be impossible to remove
the bodies from the mine.

NOTHING TO TAKE BACK.
Ambassador Bayard Makes a Char.
acteristie Speech.
In WHICH HE REITERATES HIS
PREVIOUS SENTIMENTS.

says Ii Iney are UnpaJr1Otlc he is Will
ing to Meet Any Charges That May Be
Made-Unveiling of Memorial Stone
to Rev. John Robinson.
London. juno 29.-The town Of Gains
borough, Lincolnshire, was the scene to-
day of a ceremony of interest to Ameri
cans. This was the unveiling of a me-
mortal stone in the John Robinson
church, so named after Re John Robin
son, Pastor of Pilgrim Fathers" who,
after severing his connection with the
established church in 1904, connected
himself with a body of dissen5ers in
Gains nsborongh. Among those present wero
Hon. Thomas E. Bayard, American am
bassador, and the American pilgrims
who recently arrived in England for the
purpose of visiting the scenes of interest
connected with the pilgrims.
When Mr.. Bayard arrived, he was pre-
sented with an address Of welcome by the
municipal council, in reply to which he
repeated the sentiments heretofore ex-
pressed by him, and said the entente be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain was strengthened by such occa-
sions as the present, which assisted in
smoothing any difficulties between
them. He added if there was anything
unpatriotio in the sentiments he gave
voice to, he was willing to meet and
answer any charge that might be
made against them. At luncheon, after
the toast of .'The Queen'' had been
drunk. Earl Brownlow, Lord lieutenant
of Lincolnshire, proposed ''The Presi-
dent of the United States" to which
Am bassa lor Bayard made felecitions
response. In the course of his reply he
said the OCCASION which had called them
together was both memorable and de-
lightful. A great deal was meant when
persons from both sides of the Atlantic
gathered and drank with sincerity of
feeling to toasts in honor of the British
Queen and the American President, and
he hoped that the time would never come
when such toasts would not be drunk
with the same feeling as at present ex-
pressed.
There could be no higher aim for the
Anglo-Americau statesmanship than to
preserve the condition existing between
the American and Great Britain. Per-
sonally his sojourn in England was not
for the purpose of discovering difficult
ties between the two countries, but flnd-
ing occasions of agreement.

MRS. SHAW'S STRANGE STORY.
Was Attacked By Highwayman For No
Particular Purpose as 1t Appears.

Greene, June 29.-Mrs. Annie Shaw,
wife of freeman Shaw, ..of Greene, had a
startling experience Saturday afternoon.
Mrs. Shaw was working at the sew
ing machine in the sitting room, it be-
ing then not O'Clock. Soon she heard
the kitchen door1open and was startled to
see masked manS enter. His face was
covered with a white cloth with eye
holes cut in it and had painters cap
turned wrong side out upon his head.
Before Mrs. Shaw could recover, the
man knocked her to the floor, grabbing
her arms at the same time.
By good luck Mrs. Shaw had strong
sewing needle in her hand and she
promptly jabbed it into the fellows leg,
dealing such vigorous thrusts that he
released his hold and grabbed chair.
81 thought he was going to throw it at
me-" says Mrs. Shaw, ''but instead he
flung it into the entry and made off with
myself following"
The man made his escape down through
the orchard and into the woods.
Mr.. Shaw, who had been looking for
his cows, which were missing from his
pasture, soon returned, and as soon as be
heard his wife's story, he understood his
chase after his COWS. They were found
in potato patch next TO the pasture,
and the only way to get them there was
to drive them through the bars, the man
evidently having driven the COWS into
this open pen to call Mr. Shaw nWav
over the hill from the house.
In the orchard was found the mans
resting place where he had been watch
ing, and by the appearance of the grass
he had been there for half day. A
paper bag in which had been doughnuts,
was found tucked under rock in the
first hiding place.

FLOAT WAS OVERTURNED.
Farragut Day at City Point Response.
BILE for Tragedy.

Thirty Children Preeipitated Into Water
Four of These Drowned-Heroic Rescue
BY Boy With Wooden Leg.
Boston, June S9.-About g. 30 p. M, 75
children were on a ricky, unsafe gang
plank at the landing, south of the
Bridge from City Point 60 Castle Island,
when the float overturned, the fimsy
guard rails of the gang plank broke and
the water which was at least twelve feet
deeu.
Three South Boston boys aged to 12,
and An unknown boy aged 12 were
drowned, four children were picked up
unconscious and later revived, and the
others as far as known were rescued. A
girl aged II, and boy aged 10, also Of
South Boston were injured.
This was to be observed as Farragut
day at City Point, and the South Boston
Historical society WAS giving the children
free rides on steamer from City Point
to Castle Island. The steamer was
crowded at every trip, and the rush be-
gan SO early that the afternoon detail of
police had not arrived. The steamer
had arrived at the float and was unload
ing crowd of children. when 30 chill
dren started OIL run down the gang
plank to go on board. The two crowds
met, the float upset, the gang plank split
and the children fell into the water.
Half a dozen men rescued most of the
children. Among the rescuers was eJohn
HALEY, a young man with wood leg
who jumped into the water and held up
boy until both could be pulled out.
-Four bodies were recovered, two by
divers, who thoroughly searched the
water around the float. The float was
small and oheaply built of narrow
tim bers and oil barrels, and was not
properly weighted or fastened. The
gang plank was made of the knotty
yellow pine rails and planks.
