A coNTumAc.cu3 PRISONER.
This maine man Has Been in Jail

Three YeCrs FOR Contempt.
William Davis, Of Carmel, Ne, has
been confined in Bangor Jail for near
ly 31a years for contempt of court.
There seems to be little prospect OF
his ever getting5out.
1t all came about through civil suit
against Davis to recover damages for
an assault alleged to have been com
mitted by him upon a boy named Rob
ert Pease on May i, 1882. The jury
gave a verdict for plaintiff and judg-
ment was issued, but Davis, who was
known to have a considerable sum of
money, refused to pay. For his ne
fusal he was adjudged guilty OF con
tempt and sent to Jail, where he has
remained ever since.
When a Maine creditor putsaa debtor
in jail because hewon't pay the creditor
has to pay 50 or $3.50 week for the
prisoners board. Sometimes the prison
er weakens, settles his bill and is re
leased, but more often the creditor gets
weary of paying board and allows the
debtor to go free. II doesn't often hap
pen, however, that a eitY,--copnty or
state has to pay the board of a man
who has never been convicted ola Grim
inal offense.
Davis had $1,000 in bank before his
trial; but withdrew it, and CONCEALED IT,.
He was committed to jailtSeptember IA,
1898. It was at first thought. that he
would tell where he had put his money,
but he has never shown the slightest
asign of breaking down. - I'D
{ In March, 1894, the county commits
esioners grew weary of paying two.dol-
lars a week for Davis board and told
the, county attorney to- hustle around
and see if he couldn't hunt up some
hole in the law through which Davis
might get out The attorney hustled,
but in vain. There was no hole-not
even a crack-in the law by which the
.unyielding Carmelite might escape. If
he persisted in keeping his wealth a
dark secret he'd just have to stay i'll
Jail, that was all there was of it.
Z The county commissioners got mad
and declared that they would pay no
more board bills of Davis contract
ing after March Is, 1885,, and they
seemed to expect that-w,hen the money
stopped Sheriff Reed, would open the
door and tell Davis to quit the jaii's
bed and board. But Lawyer Peregrine
White, counsel for plaintiff, told the
sheriff that if he released Davis he
would be liable for the escape of the
prisoner That settled it. The sheriff
has taken no chances and held on to-
Davis, being assured that the county
would have to pay the board bill. And
the county has always paid, the exi
pense thus far being about $500.
~ Lawyer Laughlin, who committed
Davis, says that so far as he can see
the prisoner may spend the rest of his
days in Bangor jail.-N.Y. World. "a

Gently near Fort Mcpherson, Ga. \ cot

ing a shaliy bridge over a swamp creek
when lynx came out from beneath It,
spelling for fight. Gruber didn't have
so much as a four-inch Kentucky tooth
pick with him and consequently felt
lonesome. The lynx made forgthe man
with yell. Gruber was game, though.
He grabbed the big blaclishat from his
head and shook it ats3the beast. ,s,s
The beast stopped. Gruber was not
slow to take advantage of the beasts
doubt, and gave his hat an extra flop
and wave that made the lynx draw
back. Gruber whooped at that and
did some extra filings with the hat The
YELL, the hat and Gruber's- gyrations
put the beast on the defensive, and it
backed away as if afraid it was about
to be seized. When the lynx was out

BIRDS AND KITES !
.Fenthered- Creatures Cannot Under

Many amusing experiences have been
the lot of the scientists who have been
manipulating kites for scientific pur-
POSES. Large birds ,are-alWayfs inter

the air and cannot quite make out hat
they are. Prompted by sharp cpfios-
ity they hover around 1.-THE floating Kites
Faa1nid subject themselves to~the danger
of becoming entangled in the silken
string and being dragged down TO
earth. ,... -,-r r. 8Fg
No bird, however, has ever a1ighted
on a kite or attacked one. While one
scientist was flying train of five Kites
couple of years ago a large silver
Tipped eagle came suddenly out of the
thigher air and sweoped round and
round the first kite, looking against the
sunset sky like a huge silver BALL. As
the train of kites was pulled in the
eagle followed, visiting one kite and
then another, seeming uncertain Just
what to do. Ii a few minutes, when
he seemed to have decided that they
were not good to eat, and he knew Moth
~
ing about them, anyway, he indignant

Another experience was had with a
stork that came from the New Jersey
side of the Hudson and flew straight for
the queer ohieetFin thesair. He nppar-
eniHy had made up HIS mind to- go
straimht. through it. but changed acad
dove underneath. He Went around-anl
above it, and through a glass it could
be seen that he cooked his eye at the
intruder in a tcomical manner, He
started away a few hundred feet,
changed his mind, and came swooping
back He finally reluctantly went
away, mystifed over this queer addi-
ton to the inhabitants of the air.
While kites were high in the air one
March foclss of geese flying in the b
wedge flew over. They invariably
stopped, broke up, hovered above the
queer object, and, at last, slowly re-

place is only a little village, and four
enormous tubs constitute the ''water-
