FRESH AIR SOCIETY
Gives Outing and Banquet for Children
and Mothers.

Yesterday morning at 10 o'clock 347
children, with their mothers, took the
steamer Pilgrim for Peaks island,
under the auspices of the Portland Fresh
Air Society. This outing and banquet
was undertaken by the society, at the
suggestion of Mr.. Thomas S. Laughlin
of this city, who kindly offered to defray
all the expense Of the banquet at the
Peaks Island House.
Free transportation for the entire party
was provided by Mr.. Cooling of the Casco
Bay Steamboat line.
Because of the morning rain, Mr.. God
ing opened the spacious hall connected
with the Gem Theatre, and there the
happy throng of juveniles, gathered from
all parts of our city, were pleasantly adj
dressed by Miss Crie, President of the
Fresh Air Society, who told them what
good things were in store for them. Rev.
Mr.. Wright, the guest of the society, also
made remarks.
At 11.SO a. M, after the divine blessing
was invoked by Rev. Mr.. Wright, an ex-
cellent dinner was served to the entir e
party, beginning with fish chowder and
ending with ice cream.
After the dinner the Greenwood Garden
was opened to the children through the
courtesy of Mr.. Rounds. At 2 80 all who
desired had free entrance to the enter
tainment at the Gem Theatre, and at
p. m. the entire party returned, after a
most enjoyable and successful outing
Never was more orderly and we'll be-
haved company of children assembled
than in Mr.. Sawyer's ample dining room,
and it is hard to imagine a more satisfy
ing spectacle than that which greeted the
gaze of Mr.. Sawyer's guests at the Peaks
Island House
Mr.. Erwin Mcclellan of Portland ac-
companied the excursion and rendered the
ladies very efficient service in caring for
the safety and comfort Of the children.
The ladies of the Fresh Air Society,
Mr.. Thomas 5. Laughlin and the Casco
Bay Steamboat Company, including
Manager God1ng, received from the hap
py juveniles three rousing cheers in ex-
preston of their gratitude.

DEER All DUCK POND.

Deer are reported very plentiful in the
region about Duck Pond. They are seen
both by farmers and travellers, having
increased remarkably under the protec-
tion which the law gives them in Cum
berland county. Some complaint is made
that the deer around Duck Pond are be-
ing chased by hounds. 1t Is not thought
that anyone is hunting the animals with
dogs; but some of the hounds of the
region seem to be having sport on their
own ac count.

Chicago Woman Finds Herself Sud

Chicago, March Mrs. B. D. Ten
eyck, 10Y North Levitt street, received
information yesterday that she will re-
ceive probably one-hfth of an estate
valued at more than S2O, 600, 900, left by
her uncle, who died twelve years ago
in Albany N. Y. According to the
story told by Mrs. Teneyck the uncle's
name was Rousler Wandeu. His rel
atives had not heard from him in
years. and had no idea of his where
aboUts or his wealth until some time
after his death, when the administra-
tors of the estate began to look up the
rightful heirs. The old man never mar
ried and left no will. Therefore the
whole fortune falls to the children of
his brothers and sisters, five in num-

Mrs. B. D. Teneyck and John Wandell,
a retired Chicago and Northwestern
engineer.
Several years ago a brother of Mrs.
Teneyck who lived in New York,
learned of the existence of the estate
and obtained papers from Rousler Wan
deIPs former housexeeper by means of
which he purposed having the prop
erty transferred to himself and his
sisters. He had almost concluded the
work when he died and until yester-
day Mrs. Teneyck knew nothing Of the
progress in the case.
Mrs Teneyck is Of middle age, and
has a daughter and son.

BARBARITIES DISCLOSED
In Connection With the Reign of
Martial Law in idaho.

Washington, March Wilbur Stew
art, the newspaper publisher at Mullah,
Idaho, today continued his testimony
before the house committee on military
affairs concerning the labor troubles in
Idaho. He said that on June his
newspaper plant was confiscated by
two civilian officials accompanied by
a detachment of soldiers, causing MN
considerable loss. The witness testihed
that throughout his detention he was
given no trial except before the "kanga-
roo court" He said this was the name
applied to IAN inquisition carried on
by a local official not a magistrate. he
detailed a conversation with one OF the
state officials in which the latter asked
Stewart to resume the publication OF
his paper ION the side Of law and or
DER" threatening if the publication con-
tinued to be as it had been Stewart
might expect to remain in the bull pen
The witness testified as to the death
of one johnson, a prisoner in the pull
pen" He said johnson was taken pc
fore the ''inQuisition" and an EFFORT
made to learn from him the names OF
those who participated in the riots:
When johnson returned to the pen
he expressed fears that he would pc
hanged. He tried to kill himself with
Indian clubs and later while fleeing
from an imaginary foe he was shot
through the head and killed by a guard
The witness said Johnson was mentaiiy
sound before being put in the pen
there Other prisoners, he said, were
in fear of being shot and many thought
the place was to be set on fire. There
were about $50 prisoners and about l,0OO
to l. 200 soldiers in the Occur dAlene
district. He expressed the opinion that
there had been no occasion for declar-
ing martial law.
Some of Mr.. Lentz's inquiries brought
into question the accuracy OF the report
of the testimony taken by the Indus
trial commission as to the Idaho trou-
Bile, but this line of inquiry was ruled
out on the ground that the commits
sion had no authority to investigate the
Industrial commission.
On cross-examination Representative
Parker took the witness over the cir
cumstances on the day the mill was
blown up Mr.. Stewart said he saw
large parties leave Mullan and return
later in the day but he did not know the
purpose of the movements. Several
members of the committee questioned
the witness as to the departure of min
ers on the day of the dynamiting of
the mill. He said the party numbered
from 40 to 200. The mining population
of Mullan was about $50. When the
parties returned they refused to say
where they had been or what had oc-
Cured He saw the men carrying shot
guns but none of them wore masks

point

Small audiences saw Barlow's min
strels at the Crawford theater and the

Grand opera house last night The
weather probably interfered with the
attendance at both houses.
The audience at each of the houses
seemed satisfied with the entertainment
provided. The personnel of the Barlow
minstrels is practically the same as
on the former visit here, and but little
change is to be noticed in the arrange
ment or worth of the performance. The
people taking part in Next Door are
capable of clever acrobatic work. and
are apparently tireless performers.
