KATHERINE KIDDER.
De Wolf Hopper, Americas most
popular comedian, writing on October 4,
1898, from the Knickerbocker theatre,
New York, says:
81 cordially recommend Paine's celery
compound as being thoroughly eficaci-
ous."
When the history of Paine's celery
compound is studied it is easily under
stood why its popularity is so enormous.
Paine's celery compound is the world
famed discovery of Prof. Edward Elisha
Phelps, NJ. D., IL. D., professor Of
materia medica at Dartmouth college
Prof. Phelps unusual talent quickly
established his reputation and prominence
among his professional brethren.
He was fully alive to the dangers
attendant upon the American way Of
living and he sought diligently for some
common-sense remedy that would cure
the common evils, which, under one
name and another, result from an UNI
healthy state Of the nervous system. Hi'
labors were crowned with glorious
success, and he gave to the medical pro-
fession the celebrated remedy which has
won worldwide fame as Paine's celery
compound.

Back of every smooth performance
there is an amount Of preparation, study
and rehearsal that soon tells on the health
of every actor. 1t is significant how un-
animous men and women in professional
life, whether actors, editors, teachers or

cry compound. As nerve tonic for the
exhautting strain of their professional
duties nothing else does the work of
Paine's celery compound.
A testimonial taken at random from
the many that are constantly received
from the theatrical profession, says:
Wells, Richardson & Co.,
Gentlemen-If others have been helped
by Paine's celery compound as decidedly
as in my case do not wonder at the
enthusiastic testimonials this remedy is
constantly receiving. II l had never
heard a word as to its remarkable in
MIGRATING capability, l could unhesitat-
ingly recommend it from my own ex-
perience. As fact, many of my profess
sional friends have been urging me to
try Paine's celery compound. 1t proved
to be the very thing my tired system
needed to overcome the exhausting effects
of close application to stage work. am

HELD ON ONE CHARGE.
I. R. Bunker Discharged on the Charge o.
Arson at Freeport.

Freeport, Me-, Oct. 9.-Leslie r. Bun
ker, the recent proprietor of the Har-
raseket House, was given a, hearing
before Trial Justice Townsend, yester-
day, on two warrants, charging arson
and selling of mortgaged property.
Within the last year three fires had
occurred in his hotel. A short time
ago Mr.. Bunker gave up his lease of
the hotel and moved to Hancock coun-
ty. Shortly after his departure rumors
connecting him with the cause of the
fires were circulated, and these rumors
coming to his knowledge, he returned
to Freeport and brought SANDER suits
against three parties.
After lengthy hearing he was dis
charged on the charge of arson, the
trial justice deeming the testimony IN
sufficient to warrant holding the res
pondent. On the charge of selling
mortgaged property Mr. Bunker was
bound over to the grand jury under
$500 sureties.

SPARKS FROM MAINE WIRES.

Scarlet fever has made it's appear
ance in Biddeford and Saco. There are
about 20 cases reported, one of which
has been fatal. All the victims of the
disease have been attending the pub
lie schools until recently, and there is,
therefore, the keenest anxiety among
parents.
The Bath Independent says that
Lucy,the 10-year-old daughter of
Frank M. Stetson, was locked by her
teacher in a side room for punishment
for some misdemeanor. The room is
not heated and is used as a store room.
AT close of school the teacher forgot
the child and left for home. Two
hours later the father, having learned
from other children of his daughter
plight, went to the school, found her
in pitiable condition, and carried her
home. A complaint was made to the
committee, who will investigate.
James II. Dewire of Richmond, who
runs the Richmond Hotel" was ar
rested, Friday night. by United States
Deputy Marshal B. o. Norton of Port
land, and taken to Augusta to answer
to the charge of selling Intoxicating
liquor in violation of the federal law.
Dewire left home last August, just as
he was to have been arrested on an in
dictment as common seller and one
for keeping a liquor nuisance in Sag
adahoc county. After adjournment of
court he returned and was taken be-
fore Bail Commissioner Frank E.
Southland of Bath, and placed under
$500 bonds.
Many believe that the clearing up Of
the Bucksport murder mystery is near
at hand. Now that it is generally be-
lieved that Mrs. Ware was murdered,
probably with hammer, the people of
the town have made up their minds to
pay the expenses of rigid search for
the murderer, and the selectmen have
hired a first-class detective to work on
the case. There are several clues lead
leading in different directions, to be
sure, but each worth following. 1t is a
theory of the authorities that Mrs.
Ware was killed at the entrance to the
lane. and her body then carried by
some means to the spot where it was
found.

arrested, Friday night, in Poughkeepsie

donment. says that the whole thing is a

Maxim said that the woman causing MIN
the trouble was Helen Leighton, but he
intimated that there was another woman
In the case with her.
He said t.iat Is years ago he met the
Leighton woman and a woman called
Nell Malcolm, on the Bowery in this city.
he said that he was then living on Union
street, Brooklyn, with his wife and chill
dren. He stated that the same kind of a
suit was instituted against him in Phila-
delphia at that time as has been made up
now to trouble him. The case, he SAYS.
was dismissed because the Leighton wo-
man failed to appear in court. He said
he had heard nothing of her or from her
since that time.
Captain McClusky said that the war;
rants for Maxim's arrest had been pro-
cured by Mrs. Helen Maxim"
The hearing was held in the magis-
trate's private room and lasted but live
minutes. Maxim was formally turned
over to a Poughkeepsie detective.
Mr.. Maxim corrected himself later by
saving that the Leighton woman and the
Malcolm woman were the same person.
He. added that after the Philadelphia cpl
sode she appeared in London and sought
him out in his apartments. He said he
had to forcibly eject her.
He said she had someone then write
MIN "a. threatening letter, stating that If
he did not pay her Gl5,CO0 he would be
exposed and ruined in business. Maxim
said that his brother Hudson, or Ike, y
as Hiram calls him. was the dark I.orse
behind the present proceedings" because
he refused to assist Isaac (Hudson) some
years ago in floating the stock of a motor
machine on the London market.
