Only a lucky chance permitted our
station agent, Mr.. A. Fuller to escape
from receiving a serious injury, one
morning, this week, from a rifle in the
hands of one Of GARDENERS small boys.
AS he was driving to the station, Tues
day morning with his wife, he was
startled by the sharp crack of rifle
and almost on the same instant felt a
smart blow in the back, just below the
shoulder. and on looking toward his
wife saw a piece of the fur hanging
from the cape she had on. Still further
investigation disclosed a 22 calibre rifle
bullet on the carriage seat between
them. The bullet had been partially
stopped by cutting through Mrs Full
ler's cape, and did not have sufficient
force to pierce Mr.. Fuller's clothing.
but nevertheless struck a severe blow
and his person will bear the marks Of
1t for some time. 1t is presumed the
boy fired at some doves near their
team but a yOungster not old enough
to know better how to use q dangerous
weapon Of this kind should not be al
lowed to have one.

Lynn Papers in Error.

In speaking of the escape of George
Dryden from the Augusta Jail, August
2lst. the Lynn. Mass. papers Seemed
to be inclined to attribute the fact OF
his escape to the inefIicency of tire
Gardiner police officers. when really
these officers had. with the exception
of Marshal Drake, nothing to do with
the case at all When Mr.. Drake was
notified from the Jail of Dryden's es-
cape. it was done with a great deal of
secrecy and the proceedings of pur-
suit We're conducted in the same way.
! The story of Marshal brakes trip to
Bangor and Lynn has already been
told. After his return he was notified
by the chief of police in Lynn that
Dryden had been in that city on the
Sunday and Monday following the dat
of his escape. and that they had secur-
ed postal from friend of Drydens,
which the latter had written. stating
that he was in Dover. n. H.. having a
good time and directing the friend to
address letters to "A R, Dover. n. II"
Further information received from
return letter located him as Arthur
Robinson. 20 Dunlap street, Dover.
The foregoing name is one of Dryden's
aliases. and Marshal Drake propos d
going on at once to Dover. but a the
suggestion of the Lynn officers decided
to allow the Dover police to do the
work ard at once called up the chief Of
that city, giving him description of
Dryden and the address. and asking
him to make the arrest. Nothing more
was heard from Dover until the next
afternoon when the chief called up
Marshal Drake by telephone to say
that he had lost the address and would
like to have it given again. Marshal
Drake was naturally surprised at the
sloWness of the Dover officers. but h
gave the desired address and waited
again.
and after waiting in vain for any eyi-
dence of police activity in the direction
Of Dover he resorted once more to the
telephone, and received the astounding
Intelligence that some one had told the
police that real nice people" lived at
No. 20, Dunlap street. and that no
search had been made for the man
wanted. The officer even volunteered
to tell the marshal who lived at the
number mentioned. but as he would lie
obliged to look up the name in the
directory. and as there is q cold win
ter coming, the marshal decided not {,
wait. This is the real reason Whv
Dryden was not caught the slowness
and inefiiciency of the Dover police
They had him dead to rights but on
account of the Information received
about the nice people at No. 20 DUNLAP
street. could not allow themselves to
make a hunt for the criminal and he
escaped.

SHOE FACTORY MEETING.
Stockholders Vote to Place a Loan and Build
an Addition.

An adjourned meeting of the Gardi-
ner Shoe Factory Co. was held,
Wednesday evening. The stockholders
present We're Mayor Patten, Messrs
McCausland. Walker, Milton. Cunning
ham, Webster. Ladd and DIR. Strout.
The resignation of President Lewis
was read and accepted. Mr.. Lewis re-
signed both as the president and from
the board of directors. Hon. Freeman

rectors in the place of Mr.. Lewis.
Secretary Cunningham read a letter
from the Commonwealth Shoe Co. of
Whitman. Mass. in which they asked
that an addition be built upon the shoe
factory and promised about 100 addi-
tional hands would be employed in case
this was done. The addition they ask
ed to be 35x50 feet in size.
Mr. Webster offered an order that the
directors be authorized to hire a sum
Of money in excess of $4,000 for the pur-
pose of building the addition and -
mortgage the real estate of the COM
pany as security for the said loan;
further details of the said loan and all
matters relating to the erection of said
addition to be under control of the di-
rectors. President McCausland of the
Board of Trade. and F,X-M Mayor LadG
made speeches in favor of the passage
of the order pointing out The fact that
it was even Il more profitable invest
ment than the building of the shoe fac
tory had been. The order was given 4
passage.

Board of Trade for money advanced by
this body in the past.

day. and the addition will be built by
the first of November.

Last Nights Fire.

Fire was discovered at $50, last even
ing, in the rooms over +. A. Houle-

fought the flames for fully five minutes
before ringing in the alarm that called
out four companies who fought with
great persistency. The "all out was
sounded at 1880 but not until the fire
and water had left the place in an al
most ruined condition. Mr.. Houlehan
was in Waterville at the time. so moth
ing could be learned about the insur-
ance. or the estimated loss. 1t is known
however, that Mr.. Houlehan was offer
ed $4,000 for the place but a short time
ago. and the loss will be almost total.
