After school hours Monday the students
of the High school held mass meeting
which was attended by nearly all the
school and considerable enthusiasm was
shown. Speeches were made by Inspec-
tor WelIman, Coach Fairbanks, Capt.
Porter and Benjamin Blanchard of the
school. All seemed we'll pleased with
the work OF the football team, but said
that much was yet to be done before
the team would be in shape to meet sue
cessfu1ly the Portland team which will
play here next Saturday. The opinion
was unanimous that Portland must be
be beaten at all costs and plea was
to practice with as it showed some
weak points which will be remedied
If it has an opponent each day in prac-
tice.
Several Of the alumni agreed to put on
suits and line up against the first eleven
during this week, The consequence was
that 30 men appeared at Maplewood
park Monday afternoon in suits and gave
the first eleven some good sharp prac-
tics. Harold Nuttsr has been elected

reports were not sSreceived from any au-
thoritative source, and for variety of
reasons no attention was paid to them by
the officials and no attempt was
made to bring the alleged murderer back
to Maine to answer for the crime. Few
people are living now who were witnesses
to the finding of the body and who were
acquainted with the facts surrounding
the case, and those who are alive are
scattered from one end of the country to
the other. AT the time the crime was
committed the state of Maine offered $500
as reward for the capture of the prison
er and the Province of Nova Scotia also
offered similar amount, Robbery was
evidently the only motive for the crime.
