There was another narrow escape
from an accident at the Central street
railroad crossing, Friday morning. The
morning freight, west bound, shifting
moved beloved the crossins--the east
bound passenger No. l, approached the
depot obscured by the freight. Although
the gate was down, a hurrying team
ster was well on the way across when
the horse was checked by a bystander
and backed to position of safety with
no time to spare. These episodes are
of frequent occurrence. Accidents are
only averted by the attaches of the sta
ton or others who are prompt to real
ize the danger. The gate is properly
managed. but as it is operated from
the house at Union street, the gateman
is not able to warn pedestrians or reck-
less teamsters who attempt to run the
gauntlet. 1t has been suggested that
a gate on the west as well as the east
side of this crossing might impede
travel until the proper time.

The Presidents Visit.

The special train bearing President
Roosevelt is expected to stop at TINS
station about 10 minutes while on us
way to Bangor, Wednesday, Aug. ~
and it is hoped that he will occupy the
time with short speech. The pand
has been engaged for the occasion ana
will play before the arrival of the tram
and on it's departure. There VIII De
no time for handshaking or anything
Of that sort, but enough, 1T is hoped,
for everyone present to get good look
at the President. 1t has been suggest
ed that platform be erected in Rail
road square. but this is hardly prac-
ticable and the President will doubtless
greet the people from the rear OF his
car as did Admiral Schley. The
special will leave Augusta at $50 III
the forenoon.

Fairfield Will Disband, Tonight.

The Fairfield ball team has been
taken suddenly ill and is expected not
to survive longer than Saturday night.
The team sadly felt the loss of it's old
chum and rival, Waterville, and after
the latter's death has been gradually
failing. 1t is hinted that the cause
of the decline is broken heart, but
there must be some more substantial
cause. But the fact of the case is that
it has been decided to disband the team
after the game with Madison, Satur-
day. so that will finish the baseball d.
cally for this year.

gagged in running lines, yesterday, for
sidewalks in front of the new City
building. The need of better approaches
has been felt since the building has

weather. A concrete sidewalk will be
laid from Main to Front street.in front
of the building and of sufficient width
to accommodate the crowds that will
attend the entertainments held at the
hall. The new walk will be wider at

all the time. Other needed improve
ments are also being planned and will
