MAINE AND THE WAR.
TO the Editor Of the Press:

Since Summer travel is one of Names
best interests, affecting as it does, so
largely. business of every kind, it is
worse than foolish for people or news
papers to create war stampede at the
present time.
Maine has an area of thirty thousand
square miles, covered with pine clad hills
and unnumbered lakes, and skirted on
the East with several hundred miles of
sea-coast. 1t may be truthfully said
that Maine has no rival in the beauty and
variety of it's scenery, all of which con-
spires to make it pre-eminently a favor
lite with sportsman and tourist. Should
there be war, Maine would still be one
of the pleasantest and safest places in
which to spend the summer months.
European travel will no doubt be light,
and this will increase the number of visi-
tors to this state the coming season.
Proprietors of beach hotels are apt to
be blue, at this season and this year is no
exception with them. 1t is we'll for them
to remember, that Maine is thousands of
miles from any Spanish coaling station,
and, also, that the Spainards have no
powder to waste frightening Scarboro
CLAIMS.
Hotels and camps in the lake region
report prospects of good season, and
it is altogether too soon to say that
travel to Maine this summer, will be
light. +.

It WAS NOT MURDERED
That Will Be the Defense in the
Cora Mcdonald Case.
DIED R O LACK OF CARE
The Woman Given Her Preliminary Hear
ing. Charged With the Murder of
Her Infant Child in an Old
Prospect Hole.

The preliminary hearing of Cora Nc
Donald. charged with murder in the
first degree for the alleged killing Of
afternoon before Justice of the Peace
John NJ. Trap. The complaint a.
legged that on May Z. 1898. the defend
ant, Cora Mcdonald, murdered one
John Doe MCDONALD. her infant son. to
whom she gave birth on that date. The
story of the finding of the child in n
prospect hole on Little Butte. where the
body had been buried under a pile of
stones. was told by Edward .~detlander.
the prospector who saw a woman ct
the mout of the prospect hole on the
day the murder is alleged to have been
committed and who. two days later,
discovered the body of the dead infant.
The authorship of the crime, If murder
was committed. was traced to the de-
PENDANT by a strong chain of circum-
stantial evidence, ELECTED from other
witnesses, but there was no direct evil
dence to the woman with the
crime. The defense succeeded i'm bring
ing out an opinion from two of the wit
nesses that the child had not been muir
dered by having its skull crushed in,
the popular theory of the authorities,
but instead died from want of proper
attention at the time of its birth. This
and the general tenor of the cross-ex-
animation of the states witnesses by
the defendants attorney appeared to
reveal a portion of the line of defense
that will be set up, which, so far as
was indicated, will not be a denial of
the maternity of the child but hat the
infant was not murdered. In this con-
nection counsel for the defense was
careful to ask each witness who had a
knowledge of the finding of the child
IL It had been lying on q left side
when found. the idea being to strength

Traps court room was filled with

testimony throughout the progress of
the hearing. Deputy County Attorney

IT WILL DELAY PAVING.

Work Has Not Yet Been started ON the
The paving committee met last even
ing at the city hall i'm consultation with
T.. O. Dugan of the firm of paving con-
tractors. MIR. Dugan announced that
he vas ready "a start work on July LIST,
i'm accordance with his contract. The
fact, however, that the curbing has not
been started will surely delay the paw
ing. But Mr.. Dugan was unwilling TO
incur the penalty imposed by the con-
tract i'm case of his failure TO start on
time. After consultation it was agreed
by the committee and by Mr.. Dugan TO
start the paving on July ) instead of
on July l.. This i'm order not to inter-
fere with the Fourth Of July parade.
1t has been decided that East Park
street shall first be paved, and as it is
desired to have the parade march on
that street, 1t will not be torn up by the
contractors until the 5th.
The committee decided to have a
grouting of cement placed in the cracks
between the paving blocks instead Of
tar, which was used last year. 1t is
believed better results will follow. Mr..
Dugan desired to know where the dirt
taken from the streets should be put.
and he was instructed to dump it in
Missoula gulch.
