MRS. MARY z. KING
Elected Principal of the Maine Indus
trial School for Girls.

At a meeting of the full board of the
trustees of the Maine Industrial School
for Girls, held at Hallowell, Feb. IL,
1902, after a careful consideration OF
the many candidates who have been
presented to the board during the past
few months for the position, they elect
ed Mrs. Mary E. King as principal OF
the school. tT.
Mrs. King is a lady of middle age,
calm and dignified in her bearing and
ladylike in her department. She comes
to us peculiarly well fitted for the po-
sition, having during her stay at Lam
caster, Mass, filled all the different
positions in the school, to which is add
ed that of a trained nurse. She has
filled the position of acting principal
Of this school at different times for
over a year, and has given most eX-
cellent satisfaction. At the time of her
leaving theh Lancaster, Mass, school
she was highly recommended by it's
former principal, Mrs. Bracket. for the
position Of principal of the Colorado
Industrial School, but upon reaching
the place she withdrew her application.
The trustees feel in electing Mrs.
King to this responsible position, they
are only carrying out the policy of the
institution, which is the promotion of
valuable and deserving officers to high
err and more responsible positions.

A REGRETABLE AFFAIR.
Street Commissioner CIarey Assaulted
by x-Alderman Wells.

One of the most disgraceful assault
and battery cases that has happened
in this city was that of yesterday fore
noon, when ex-Alderman and ex-
Councilman Haines d. Wells terribly
beat Street Commissioner A. E. Clarey.
The affair happened at about IL
O'Clock, while Mr.. Clarey was talking
with E. r. Danforth on Spring street.
The cause of the assault was proba bly,
local politics. In Ward /, where the
affair took place, there are two fac
tons. one for Mr.. Clarey and one
against him for street commissioner.
There has been hard feelings and some
words have been exchanged at times.
Yesterday morning, a few remarks
not altogether friendly were exchanged,
when Mr.. Wells, who is a strong and
powerful man of so years, caught Mr..
Clarey, who is 20 years old, and pulled
him back in his sleigh. He then terri
bly, beat him in the face until sepa-
rated. Aain he caught Mr.. Clarey
while on the ground, who fell from
exhaustion, and more blows followed.
At last Mr.. Clarey was released and
at once went to the police station,
where he was granted warrant
against Mr.. Wells for assault with in
tent to kill. This was served by City
Marshal Drake and Mr.. Wells was
taken to the police station. There he
waived the reading of the warrant,
pleaded not guilty and was bound over
| to the April term of the superior court
at Augusta in the sum of $500, which
he furnished.
The wounds of Mr.. Clarey are quite
severe. He is an aged man, an old
soldier, and has wound that troubles
him at all times, besides other physical
| troubles. On examination of the
| wounds he received it was found that
| all the muscles of his face We're terri
bly, bruised, his right ear badly torn
| one of the eyeballs cut deep, besides
| many other cuts in the face. The
shock to his nervous system was ter
rible and the doctors have grave fears
for his recovery, which will take sew
eral weeks at the least.
1t is understood that a civil case will
| follow, the matter being placed in the
hands of Attorney Will c. Atkins, who
will act as soon as Mr.. Clarey is able
to attend to the preliminary proceed.

of the canal is so taken that it gives a
