TO EvADE THE LAW.
Big Moose to BE Taken Through Canada
and Boston to Riverton

AS is well known the guides in northern
Maine have large moose stalled in the
woods. This animal, they and many Others
are very anxious to exhibit at the coming
sportsmen's exhibition in Boston, but the
law provides that no moose, deer, or
caribou shall lie taken alive except for ex-
hibition in parks in the state.
Thursday afternoon General Passenger
Agent Houghton of the Bangor and
Aroostook railroad, telegraphed to Chair
man Carleton of the fish and game com
mission, for permission to take the animal
out of the state, but this commission has
no more authority to give permit to
take a moose from the state than they
would to order the dome of the state
house to be moved.
1t is thought, however, the law will be
evaded by capturing the moose for River
ton park, Portland, and the animal will
be taken to that place through the
Provinces and by way of Boston. While
the animal is at the Hub, he will DO al
lowed to visit the exhibition for few
days, and when he has seen the sights
and interviewed the people of the Bay
State, ne will continue his trip to Port.
land, where he will have a permanent
home at the beautiful Riverton park.

YARMOUTH HAS DONE HER SHARE

l.
The citizens of Yarmouth are wide
awake, benevolent and in every case when
they are appealed to they respond gener-
ously. The cause of suffering Cuba, for
which the people of Portland have done
so much. has appealed to the people Of
Yarmouth and they have contributed as
much as any of her town of the size in
New England.
A committee of Yarmouth 8 citizens
composed of Dr. Herbert A. Merrill,
Charles 6. Woodman, H. M. Moore, r.
D. Freeman, Charles W. Jordan, Alex
ander II. Twombly and +. B. Merrill
took the cause in hand and issued an ap-
peal to every voter in Yarmouth to con-
tribute to the relief fund. These gentle
men arranged for a benefit and having
secured the services of some of the best
local talent they held last Wednesday
evening a concert and literary entertain
ment in the Mason's hall which was
given them free of charge for the occasion.
Mr.. f. a. Colley of Portland, a we'll
known amateur humorist went out to
Yarmouth and did what he could to help
the affair along. The result of the enter
tainment was about $50 in cold cash and
many people who did not attend pur-
chased tickets Rnd sent contributions of
provisions and old clothing. Yarmouth 8
supplies are to be forwarded to Havana
along with those of Portland, when the
third shipment is made from this city
next week. The gentlemen who were in
strumental in awakening Yarmouth to
Cuba's needs deserve much credit for the
SUCCESS of the benefit entertainment and
the golden harvest resulting from it.
