4 ailNeoan eALLs CASE.

"A verdict was returned In the Cum
berland County Supreme Court on Satur-
day, Nay y, In the case Of the Rumford
Falls Power Company against the Rum
ford Falls Paper Company. The verdict
was for the plaintiff for el4,11169. The
sum sued for In the writ was about
81, 900 ad damnum being o60, 900. This
cause Was sent to IN auditor last fall
and has been In hearing before him at
intervals ever since. During these hear
ings the Claim Of the Power Company
Was reduced to about 90, 900 Including
interest. At the jury trial the amount
Was further reduced to the amount
above stated.
The entire case now goes forward to
the Law Court on the question whether
plaintiffs are entitled to recover any sum
~hstever. This matter will be argued
In July on exceptions by the defendsn mt
to dismiss the writ entirely for being de-
fectively drawn.
This was an action TO recover for
what IL called excess water, alleged to
have been used by the defendant and
supplied by the plaintiff.

Indian Agent Goldberg Poisoned.

Vinita, l. T., Oct. 1O.-Maior
Edward Goldberg. United States
Indian agent for the Quapaw
agency, died this morning at the
agency, of poison from eating wild
mushrooms. His wife is also very
sick and not expected to live, from
the same cause. Major Goldberg
was appointed United States In
dian agent for the Quapaw agency
by President Mckinley in 1897.
He was from Canton, O., aud was
q personal friend of the president.
LATER-The death of Mrs. Gold
berg is also announced as the ne
suit of mushroom poisoning.
The remains of Mr.. and Mrs.
Goldberg will be removed to Can
ton, o.. the home of their relatives

Dewey's Unkempt Home.

The home which the American
people presented 70 Admiral Dewey
is again causing the adverse criti'
cism of the hero of Manila bay.
1t is said that the home of the
Admiral of the American navy is
not kept shipshape.
Neighbors of the admiral call
attention to the untidy lawn. Real
estate agents claim that the gen
eral neglect of the property hurts
values in the vicinity. This home
has not been occupied since the
admiral and Mrs Dewey moved out
to Beauvoir, their country home,
last April, and the air of abandon
ment is sadly noticeable.
The place looks distressed and
forlorn. The lawns are unkempt
and have not felt the reaper this
year. The long and shaggy grass
is Drowned by the torrid weather
and has withered in spots.
Mrs. Dewey has said she will
never live in the house again, and
the neighbors are worried about
the fact that this wasted relic of 6
once beautiful home will continue
indefinitely as O menace to theil
property and future comfort.

Either Bryan or mckinley.

Either Bryan or Mckinley viii
be elected president the first Tues
day after the first Monday of next
month.
Either the republic or the en-
pire will be indorsed
If Bryan wins, it will mean the
end of a war of conquest for un-
holy greed
If Mckinley wins, it will mean
that the war will gos on; that
American ideals will be repudiated;
that national faith will be betrayed;
that the rights of man will be de-
MED; that the Declaration of In
dependence will become mockery;
that the Constitution will be ig-
nored; that polygamy and slavery
will be indorsed, and that all for
which we have stood, and of which
we hsve boasted, and of which we
have been honestly proud during q
hundred and twenty five years of
glorious national history will be
put behind us for mean and Ig-
noble ambition.
The citizen must choose. He
may affect to believe that there is
some other duty before him but
that of deciding between the re-
public and the empire. But if he
shall vote for any other man
than Bryan he will vote to
strengthen the arm of imperialism
and to cripple that of free govern.
