balabored his victims without msroy.
The blow he struck &C the woman was q
murderous one and that 10 did not XIII
her was no lack CT intention on his part.
Ths prompt capture Of one OF the muir

to the community. This is one Of the
class of murders that makes people wish

Mr.. y. A. Gilbert replies IN letter
published In another column to MIR. b.
Walker Mckeen's answer to his recsnt
letter in the Maine Farmer. mir. Gilbert
raiterates all his charges and intimates
that he is prepared to furnish dooumen-
tary proof OF many of them. 1t is clearly
evident that this matter has assumed
sufficient importance to call for a tho
rough Investigation by the Board of Agri-
culture or some other tribunal that has
jurisdiction OF the matter. II Mr.. Nc
Keen has been slandsred he ought to seek
TO vindicate himself In the only salts
factory way opsn to him, that Is, by
calling for an investigation. Certainly
he can hardly expect, or even ask, for a
reelection as Secretary of the Board I'M
til the charges against him are satisfac-
torily cleared up. And In this connection
it may be proper to suggest that the
Board of Agriculture ought to be given
more supervision over the expenditure
OF the money that Is appropriated by the
legislature. AS matters now stand the
Board has little mora than a theoretical
control of Its secretary who seems to
bs able to spen d money about as he sees
fit. For all the power and supervision 1t
exercises the Board might as well not be
in existence.

Representative Allan of Portland will
introduce In the House this week a bill,
the text OF which is published elsewhere,
designed to remedy the soAndalous pTao-
tees that have grown up under the fee
system in the matter of liquor seizures.
Mr.. Allan recognizes that abolition Of
all fees or the turning over OF all OF them
to the county Is impracticable, and has
so drawn his bill as to make it apply
especially to those cases when change
is practicable and out Of which the de-
mand for abolition has Largely arisen.
The principle of MIR. Allan's bill is cor
rect. Possible some of its details may
be susceptible of improvement though 1t
appears to be carefully drawn. or course
the REPRESENTATIVES and senators tromCum-
berland county and especially from Port
land, whe re the scandals of the fee system
have heen more In evidence, perhaps,
than anywhere else, are all In sympathy
with the purpose of this measure and will
give Its principle vigorous support.

It is. the same old story-we lose. That
time worn saying. How can we lose?"
mas been changed, at least In st. Paul
'1andom,' to How can we VIM"
There was just one bit of difference In
yesterdays game with st. Joe and sew
eral others that have ended the wrong
way-bad judgment was coupled with bad
playing. Thomas and Curtis We're sent
in by Ryan and McKibben to do the
twlrling in the final game. Thomas dem
cnstrated early and often, and to the sat
3sfaction Of every one but Ryan, that he
was not fit, but the manager refused
to see it that way until it was too late.
When the game was hopelessly lost Co
gan was sent for. 1t took Dick one
inning to get Strengthened out and then
he moved them down in fine shape. But
for the fact that the little bunch of
rooters who went out to see the game
might be there yet, 1t would have been
Just as well to let Thomas pitch the
game out. Curtis was no better than
Thomas, and Manager McKibben sent
him to the bench in the second Inning
and called in Maupin. This young man
allowed but five scattered hits through
the rest Of the game, and, with perfect
play behind him, 1t is doubtful If Ryan's
hired men would have scored more than
once. The management Of the team must
realize after yesterdays game that Co.
gan and Brain cannot win out alone.
They may be able to turn the trick o.
casionally when they have an even break
from the start, but it is asking too much
to expect them to pull games out after
some of the rest have lost them. Give
them a couple Of real ball players to
assist in the good work and there may
be g. different story to tell.
The field was in bad shape for playing,
as the rain had left 1t very heavy, but
this cannot serve as an excuse for the
loss of the game, for st. Joe had to
pay on the same ground and they II ade
just as many errors as the locals. In
making hits it was different. The Wis
itors lined the ball out often and to good
effect, while the locals were, with the
exception Of Brain and Holmes, out of
the running in this respect Check, who
has been touted as wonder, made his
first appearance. He replaced Parker in
right field and distinguished himself by
striking out three times with men On
bases.
The ore bright spot in the whole game
was in the short field. higgins had a
very busy Gay and he made d couple
Of bad fumbles, but more than
made up for the bad work in stopping
several liners that looked like safe hits
and by catching one fly OF Floods bat
that would have been safe with almost
any other man in the business playing
the short field. McKibben was on first
when the play came Off and he was
half way home before he realized that
1t would be useless for him to try to get
back to the initial bag
