The term was an unusually impor-
tant one and many cases involving in
tricate points Of law We're tried
A unique case relating to the en-
forcement of the prohibitory law. as
signed for trial at this term, has been
continued by mutual agreement until
the March term of the supreme judi
cial court. The action was brought by
Jennie |. Day OF Gardiner, with the ad
damnum, placed at $4,000 against John
Mcnamara also of Gardiner. an al
legged liquor dealer. The plaintiff al
leges that Maynard Shea shot her in
the right wrist. necessita ting the am
putation of that member, while in an
intoxicated condition, buying his
liquor at McNamara's place. 1t is I'M
derstood that this case Is the first one
in the State to be brought.
The writ stripped of its legal VERDI
age alleges that she is an unmarried
woman and dependent upon her labor
for her personal support. that on the
first day of September. 1902, she was
the housekeeper of one Harvey Shea
at Gardiner; that Maynard Shea on
that date and for a long time prior
thereto had been resident of Gardi-
ner and had rented and occupied
tenement in the same house with Har-
ry Shea; that on the day in question
Maynard Shea became intoxicated and
John Mcnamara on that day illegally
sold to Maynard Shea Intoxicating
liquors which were drank by Shea at
McNamara's saloon at Gardiner: that
the Intoxicating liquors there drank
contributed to Sheas intoxication:
that Shea then so intoxicated came to
the house which was occupied in part
by the plaintiff ana there took into his
hands a gun soaded with powder and
shot, by reason of his intoxicatiCn so
carelessly and negligently handled that
plaintiff was then and there severely
wounded and injured in her right
hand by the shot discharged from the
gun in the hands of Maynard Shea,
and ii became necessary in conSe-
quence of the wound to amputate the
plaintiffs hand at the wrist. and in
consequence of the wound ana the am
putaton of the hand the plaintiff then
suffered greatly a3d has continued to
suffer from that time until The present
date. and in consequence of the am
putation of the hand. the plaintiff is
also injured in her means of support.
Shea was indicted at the September
term of the Kennebce county superior
court for assault with intent to kill but
a mol pros was entered in the case on
the recommendation Of County Attor-
ney Leigh.

THE MEERsCHAUM INDUSTRY.

The Manufacture of the Pipes Almost
 Confined to Turkey-The Location of
 the Mines.
 The British foreign office has issued report upon the meerschaum mining in- dustry in Constantinpole. This prod uct, which is extensively utilized for the manufacture of pipes, is almost en- tirely confined to Turkey. The meer- schaum can be mined by any person at Sari-sou, Septdie Gheikli and Menlou, on payment of five pias to the adminis- tration of mines-the cost of a permit. The mines at Sari-sou are situated at a distance of about seventeen miles to the east of Eskichehir. The pit at Sari-sou was opened twenty years ago. but to-day there are 5000 mines open ed, of which, however, only 2,000 are worked, the remainder having been abandoned. Some 4,000 miners work these mines. and every Friday a mark ct is held at which they dispose of the blocks of meerschaum they have ex- tracted during the week. For the ac- commodation of the workmen some 1000 huts have been erected.
 At Sepetdje, about eighteen miles to the northeast of Eskichehir, there are some 10000 pits in a space of six miles, of which only 150 are worked, all the others being exhausted. It is said that these mines were opened 1000 years ago. which is not incredible, as it is well known that magnesia was fornvar- ly used for many purposes, other than the fabrication of pipes; moreover, Fuller's earth used to be worked on vast scale by the scientists. The meerschaum mines are worked by 800 miners, who live in the surrounding vil- lages. At Gheikl. in the neighborhood of Sepetdje, there are 5000 pits, of which only 100 are worked, givng em- ployment to 400 miners.
 The only place where the administra- ton of mines authorized meerschaum to be extracted is Menlon, and here there are only twenty pits actually worked by 100 workmen. The working of these meerschaum deposits called the Eskichehir, mines which formerly were actively worked, is reduced to TITO pits, givng employment to some 5000 miners. the greater portion of whom are Kurds and Persians.-Scien- tif1c American.

DRIVING THE HORSEMAN OFF
 THE COUNTRY ROAD.

There are dark days ahead for many
 of the road houses. on the principal highways leading out from this city in all directions, and, according to the pro-
 prietors, the trouble is due to the auto-
 mobiles largely.
 Road houses first came into being
 when the highways were used by trav- eIers in stage coaches or on horseback.
 Many of the houses built at that period are still standing and are we'll known | landmarks. When the railroads came into existence some of the road houses | went out of business. A few years ago when cycling was a | craze prosperous times came for the wayside inns The old-time houses l were not able to accommodate all the people who came their way and hum dreds of new inns were erected. Then l cycling went out of fashion over night and many innkeepers found expensive l establishments on their hands with no | patronage except that derived from the l driving public.
 Road driving began to pick up year l or so ago and the road house proprie- l tors began to take roseate view of the 1 future as their receipts increased. 1 There was more money in one driver ! than in several cyclists. But at this turn in the tide of the hotel owners af- fairs the automobiles began to whizz
 and snort past their places. The result has been to scare the road l driver away, the innkeepers say. Men have either abandoned driving alto gether or have sought the back roads or ] highways where they are free from the 1 annoyances of the automobiles. Their patronage is lost to the hotelkeepers. l The owners of the autos give them no compensating patronage.
 l The proprietor of one road house sat on the front veranda of his place the l other night, having absolutely nothing l to do For many years his house was a popular resort in Queens county. In
 the summer time it was always
 the conditions that have overtaken men of his business he said:
 we had good thing of it when cy- l cling was all the go. When that died
 out we missed the cyclists, but driving picked up and we could have made out
 on what we got from the horsemen.
 But the automobilists are putting us out ! of business.
 ''They have driven the horsemen from the roads and they themselves seldom stop within twenty miles of their start 1 ing place. The cold fact is that the road house business is at hing of the past.
 My lease expires next year and down
 comes my sign. It has been hanging up there for three generations. This house
 had a great reputation. My father
 made money here and my grandfather before him. I am able to give better accommodations than either of them;
 but there is no trade to cater to.--New York Sun.
