''Please address yourself to me. You
are not arguing to the defendant or the
audience" admonished Judge Hill.
Several times in the course of his argu-
msnt Mr.. Bates was warned by the court
to be more ciroumspecG in his remarks,
but paid little heed to the admonition.
The climax came when he declared that
the defendant was a low, dirty, cow
ardIy cur At these remarks Mr..
Rounds rose from his seat and rushed
toward thes bench with upraised hand,
excitedly declaring: ''I've got some
rights here. I demand the protection OF
the court
He was ordered back to his seat by
Judge Hill, who scored Mr.. Bates on his
unprofessional conduct, and warned him
that repetition would lead to-his being
fined for contempt of court.
IT know this is a partisan court, .
the attorney hotly declared 'but I can
maintain my rights
At the conclusion of the trial Judge
Hill announced his decision for the
defence.
The case has been appealed.

Engine of Portland go to Fairfield
this morning to become the guests of
Engine OF that town, The Fairfield
men are very friendly to Engine OF
Portland. Eight years ago the Portland
company were at Bangor at firemen S
muster and had dzdrawn a fineZposition to
play. The Fairfield men had very poor
position, one which compelled them to
either to pull out of the contest or lose
the last train for home. The Portland
men, in this emergency, withdrew and
gave the Fairfield men their chance.
This was generous thing to do and
since then the Portland ana Fairfield
men have been very friendly and have
entertained one another several times.
About 80 men go to Fairfield this morn

Client time for the hearing of equity cases

of this city.

SUBJECT FOR GOOD BON FIRE.

There IS prospect that the boys liv-
ing on Munjoy hill Will have a good time
one Of these nights. The old Curtis
house which now stands on land belong
ing to the city, has been vacated and the
windows and all that is valuable about
it have been removed. 1t now remains
to get rid of the shell and Park Com
missioner Smith says that about as good
a way to do this as any would, in his
opinion, be to send a fire engine down
there and set the old house on fire. 1t
would be a fitting celebration of McKin-
ley's victory to have such bon fire, but
probably Mr.. Smith being good Demo
crat would not like to have the celebra-
tion occur In this way.
Action will also be taken to bring about
the vacat1ng of the Pierce house on the
Eastern Promenade and as soon as 1t is
vacated, this section of the promenade
will be evened off and put into good
shape.
