WITHOUT A PRESIDENT.
President Howe OF the N. |. S. A. A. Re-
sqns-Pians TO Form Foot Ball League.

The Maine Interscholastic Athletic
Association is now without president,
since President Howe Of Lewiston has
resigned. and on account Of the fact
that the association is to he run under
the direction of board of managers
from the colleges the probabilities are
that 10 election will be held to fill the
vacancy.
President Howe has not been we'll
fer some little time and as the last
meeting which was very lively the
strain of his standing 50 long proved to
be too much for him. Since that time
Re has not been as we'll as usual on
account Of his i'll health he was forced
to resign BY tacit understanding
Harry X. Gross of this city, the secre-
tary of the association, is acting presi-
dent Since the management Of the
association has been placed, practically,
in the hands of the colleges no election
for q new president will be held during
this school year.
There is plan on foot among the
members of tie association to follow
out the advice of those interested il.
foot ball by forming a league among
the different schools. Rather two
leagues, a senior and junior league; the
senior leasr1e To he compCSed of such
schools as Thornton. Bangor. Portland,
Hebron and kent's HILL and the junior
league of such schools as Bath. Mich
OILS Latin. Lewiston high, and Cony
high. 1t is the plan to advance this
idea at the next meeting of the associa-
ton.

Shooting Took Place in Columbus County
and Was Done by Men Who Formerly
Worked With Barnum Jones,

the Desperate.

News comes from Columbus county of
an attempt of shoot a posse of
revenue officers, who were making raid
near the home of Barnum Jones, the
noted desperate and moonshiner who
was killed by revenue men about a year
ago.
The raiders were led by Deputy Col
lector w. f. Gibson, and they cut up
two stills, 40 and go gallons capacity,
and destroyed about 500 gallons of beer.
The stills, though five miles apart, were
in the Barnum Jones community and are
said to have been operated by some of
his old distillers.
Mr.. Gibson writes to the revenue de-
partment here as follows concerning the
shooting:
while we were at the first still we
were shot into four times with shot
guns. but no damage was done. When
we had gone about 21a miles further
on we We're shot at again with buck
shot. One shot struck j. b. Register
on the leg but did not hurt him much.
I'VE then went on about 21a miles
further and got another still. / think
they wanted to run us out of the neigh
borhood. but they did not. l think
have them spotted.
''As we were going in to the first
still, heard someone whistle and
answered him: so we got within about
IL feet of each other and he discovered
l was not the man he was looking for.
There We're two men with guns. We
were in a small path and they told me
to turn to the right. / told them / would
not turn; that if any turning had to
be done they had to do it. They then
broke and ran off into the swamp. We
were now within about 800 yards of
the still.
While we We're cutting it up these
two men crept up in bout 60 or 20 yards
and shot at us four times. We heard
the shot all around us, but they did no
damage.
II think il was some of the same
crowd that went ahead of us about Of
miles fufther on and shot at us again.

from getting the other STILL"
