DEHoRNED SHAKER COWS.
And Trustee Libby is Accused of Cruelty tc
Animals.

Sanford. July 26.-Frank Libby, one
Of the trustees Of the Shakers at Alfred
and widely known outside of the COM
munity, is expected to be the defendant
in peculiar case in court here in the
near future. In reference to the case,
Mr.. Libby said to the Associated Press
today: 1T is true that have been noti-
fed by Obed F. Stackpole of Bidceford,
an officer for the prevention of cruelty to
animals to appear in court and answer
to charge of cruelty based on my de-
horning herd of cattle. shall plead
not guilty to the charge, although it is
true that have dehorned all the COWS in
Shakerville, as believe it to be more hui
man to cut off a COW s horns than to al
low them to remain. did this after se-
curing the best advice possible and
now propose to make this a test case. The
dehorning is done with an instrument
made especially for the purpose and it is
all over before the animal can possibly
realize what happened. Ihave watched
the COWS closely and have never seen the
slightest evil effects from it, and on the
other hand it renders the animal much
more peaceable. I believe that the de-
horning of cattle will become universal
before many years"

GREECE aETTlNG:woRsT END OF IT
That Turkey Doesn't Intend to
Evacuate Thessaly.

Constantinople, July 26.-At the sitting
of the peace conference today the ambas-
sadors presented the peace preliminaries
drafted by the Powers, which provide for
European arbitration of any differences
that may arise between the Greek and
Turkish plenipotentiaries in arranging a
definite treaty. 1t is said that the Powers
will insist upon the acceptance by the
Porte of this provision, and it's reception
therefore by the Sultan will be highly
significant. u
The desire of Germany to institute a
European control of Greek finances still
hampers the settlement of the indemnity
question. 1t is understood that the Volo-
Larissa railway will be transferred to the
Greek administration with the stipula-
tion that the same facilities shall be
granted to Turkey for the transportation
of troops as are granted to the Greek gov
ernment. This, therefore. does not indi-
cate an intention on the part of Turkey
to evacuate Thessaly, but is merely a
measure of economy

LIVELY TIMES PROMISED.
A Crisis Believed To Be Impending Il
Coal Strike.


Pittsburg. Pa, July z6.-Lively times
are promised in the coal mining situation
this week. A crisis is impending. This
is conceded on all sides. The arbitration
commissioners, on the one side, feel
hopeful that they will bring about the
Initiative for settlement at the meeting
Tuesday morning. The miners officials
on the other hand, claim to have adopted
measures that will make complete tie
up 1t has developed that many of the
West Virginia miners are awaiting word
from the Pittsburg district and espec-
tally from the New York and Cleveland
mines. They want to hear of the miners
in these mines having joined the general
suspension.
This, it is claimed by the officials, will
bring all the faltering ones in West
Virginia into line, thus making the
strike effective, in that it will shut off
the supply of coal. To complete this,
arrangements have been made for
Eugene V. Debs and other prominent
officials to come to this city and hold a
meeting for the benefit of the New
York and Cleveland miners Thursday
morning. w. P. Rend, the Chicago
operator arrived in the city today.

Biddeford, July 2e.-George, the FIVE
year old son Of Mrs. Ida Grant, who boards
with Mrs. John Fose at 35 Washington
street, was set upon and terribly bitten in
the head by a shepherd dog owned by
James E. Gowen while playing in the
yard at the east end of the house this
morning, and it required "a stitches to
close the wounds. The little boys fore

torn, while on the top Of the head near
the parting there are several ragged
wounds, one of these being three-cor-
neered wound about three inches long,
where the dogs teeth were inserted, tear
ing up the flesh and laying the bone bare.
Complaint was made to the police and 1t
is probable that the dog will be ordered
