amendment to the bill to this effect
that the trouble occurred.
| AN evening session was held. Will
son sat down front and when he began
to speak against Browns amendment
the hall was well filled with members
and the galleries were crowded with
spectators Brown had spoken in favor
of his motion and Wilson replied.
| While the latter was talking Brown
who sat q couple of seats away, denied
some statements made by the Thomas
ton gentleman.
Wilson was mad in an instant. With
his right arm raised and his fist tight
| ly clenched, he leaned toward Brown
and in a voice of furious rage he
shouted:
You're a ID liar!'
1.-THE House was in an uproar at once.
Brown raised his towering form from
his seat and started toward Wilson,
but mis- colleague. Gorham L. BOynton
of Bangor. pacified him, and other
members crowded around the two bel
ligerents and brought order out of
chaos.
II was sitting down front and saw
the whole thing. 1t looked as if they'd

Several towns are more or less con-
cerned regarding their Free High school
money which the State gives them in
return for Free High school appropria-
lions, the State giving one-half the
amount raised by the town up to $3.50.
The question which has arisen is in re-
gard to the division of this amount.
The ground has been taken by some
that one-half the amount must be eX-
spended in the first six months and the
other half in the last six months of the
year. and that if a town should call on
for but 500 IN the first six months it
could not draw the remaining $3.50 in
the last six months of the year. This
view is opposed by others who MAIN
tain that the law regards the expendi-
ture as an annual one and that it
makes no difference when the money
is spent so long as it comes within the
year. settlement of the matter in
accordance with the latter view will be
very pleasing to several worried munic-
qualities.
