JARVIS c. MARBLE.

Mr.. Marble, one OF the oldest and
mot respected citizens Of Paris, died
Sunday morning at his home on Paris
Hill, after long period Of failing health
He lacked only about two months OF be.
ing eighty years of age.
Jarvis C. Marble was the ninth son OF
Nathan and Mehitable (Freeland)
Marble, and was born In Bethel May "a,
1921. He attended the common schools
Of Bethel until he was eleven years OF
age, when he was obliged to give up
study and start out in life for himself.
For year he worked In the store OF L.
G. Crocker of Buckfield for his board
and clothes. Later he worked for a
while in Portland, and then went to New
York, where he was for number OF
years clerk in the establishment of L.
G Carter. In ls42, shortly before his
m ,rriage, he came to Paris, where he
has ever since lived.
For the first two years Of his resi-
lence in Paris Mr.. Marble was clerk In
the store of his brother-in-law, Hiram
Hubbard, subsequently, buying out the
store and conducting 1t on his own &C
count for few years. He also estab-
lished general store at North Buck
field, and had good trade In both
stores.
A few wears later Mr.. Marble bought q
powder mill, and subsequently erected
other mills, finally giving up his other
business and devoting his energies to the
manufacture of powder, which he made
very profitable. After the civil war the
principal portion of his powder busi-
ness was carried on in Canada, where he
filed large contracts with the Canadian
government and the Hudson Bay Com
paDy. The village Of Windsor, r. q,
was built mainly as the result OF Mr..
Marbles business enterprises.
In 1878 he disposed of his powder bust
ness, aud for few years carried on bark
business In Canada, and was engaged In
numbering somewhat in Maine. For the
last ten years or more he has been en-
tirely retired from business.
He married, In 1S42, Mary K. Hubbard
of Paris, who survives him, as do two
Lizzie H., wife of Orlando A.
Thayer, and Fannie F., wife OF John
Pierce, all Of Paris.
Mr.. Marble was philosophical citi-
zen, particularly interested in the vel
fare Of Paris Hill, and liberal with his
money and his efforts in behalf of all
good public enterprises. In politics be
was an active Republican. -Four times
he represented his district in the legis-
lature, and he was county treasurer six
years. He was an earnest Universalist,
and was one of the leaders in building
the church on the Hill, and in maintain
ing services there, which he attended ss
long as the condition Of his health per-
mitted.
The funeral will be held at ! 80 We'd
nesday afternoon, and will be attended
by Rev. J. C. Snow, D. D., of Haver-
hill, Mass.

HOW THE PRESIDENT
WAS SAFE GUARDED
Every Possible Precaution Was
Taken at Buffalo.
DANGER WAS REALIZED
BUT CZoLGosz WAS TOO CRAFTY
FOR SHREWDEsT DETECTIVES.

Buffalo. n. Y. Spet. Secretary
Wilson desires the country to under
stand that every possible precaution
was taken to prevent the awful tragedy
of yesterday. The secretary made the
following statement today to an Asso-
ciated Press correspondent:
Last Thursday, when the president
witnessed the grand illumination at
the exposition / was impressed with
the ease with which some eVil-dispOsed
person might have crept up in the
darkness between the flashes of the
pyrotechnicS and have done the pres
lGent bodily harm. Secretary COrtelyou
was similarly impressed and we talked
the matter over at great length and as
we sat on the benches watching the
display, / confess that my pleasure
was destroyed by the dread of what
might happen.
Secretary Cortelyou and I went over
carefully the precautions which are
always taken with the public appear
ance of the president and he said that
if any other precautions could be sug-
gested or devised he would employ
them. We spoke of the reception at
the Temple of Music which had been
arranged for the next day. We both
agreed that the only danger which
might exist would be from organized
anarchists or someone actually de-
mented and Observation-Disclosures the pos
SiDlttNN Oh JUST SuGn q Tragedy dS OG-
CURED we could not but admit.
with the memory of this converse
ton in his mind, Secretary CortelyOu
yesterday took special precautions. De-
tectiVes, guards and soldiers were en-
plOyed- Nothing that foresight could
imagine was omitted. and yet the das-
tardls crime was committed.
1t was warm, many people were
hopping their brows with their hand
kerchiefs and the. detectives who were
watching vigilantly for a possible
weapon in the hand of a would-be as
sassin had no suspicion of what lay
concealed in what apparently was the
bandaged hand of Czoigosz.
All the secret service had been es
pecially cautioned. / desire to have

that the people may understand and
that the assault cannot be attributed
to careleSsnesS, but also in justice TO

STREET CAR Loss is $4,000
WHAT IT WILL COST TO RE
PLACE PROPERTY.
Cars Destroyed Cannot be Replaced
For Several Months-WiIl Cause
Much Inconvenience.

According to the statement last night
of Secretary Wells of the street car
company, IT will cost in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000 to replace the material
destroyed by the fire at the Rapid
Transit power plant Friday night,
counting in the additional expense for
the latest improved equipment with
which that destroyed by the fire will be
replaced. The estimates yesterday on
the actual loss caused by the burning
lID OF the old property placed it at
about $4,000, the same as stated in The
Herald yesterday morning. The actual
expense to the company viii be a much
larger figure, owing to the destruction
of so many winter cars, which will be
urgently needed by the company in a
very short time. These cannot be re-
placed, according to the statement of
Secretary Read, for some six or nine
months, but they will be replaced by
the newest and latest cars. The loss of
so many cars at this time has handi-
capped the Rapid Transit lines verv
seriously. hut arrangements have been
made by which cars from the Salt Lake
lines will be used to fill out the short
age on occasions where they are
needed.
Street car officials and insurance
agents visited the scene of the fire yes
terday afternoon to look over the place.
but it was stated last night they were
not yet able to make any adjustment
OF the losses. The insurance companies
holding policies and the amounts OF
each are as follows: Firemen's Fund

During the progress of the fire a
Short Line freight train ran over and
cut two lines of fire hose that were be
ing used upon the fire. The firemen
say they placed a light on the track to
show that the hose was stretched
across il, but that the light must have
gone out and they could not get to th,.
track IN time to flag the train. The
cutting OF the hose caused the fremen
considerable trouble for a while bus
