thorized statement was issued, this

levc His Majesty is now strong enough

the coronation is regarded as an addi-
tional guarantee Of the confidence Of
the Kings physicians of a continuance
of His Majesty's rapid recuperation.

~ planned, the day after the coronation
and there will be no procession apart
from that which Their Majesties Will

stove leg and to the trigger and pull
ed the gun towards himself, until the
cock snapped. There were no indica-
tons of u struggle.
No one heard the report except an in
mate. who afterwards said that when
she was washing the dinner dishes she
heard a noise and thought a window
had dropped.
Mr.. Sennett was eS years old and has
no relatives living as far as known. He
came into town some 20 years ago and
worked blacksmithing for number OF
years. His former home he said was
in Halifax.

INSTANT DEATH
The Fate Of City Electrician
Landry Of WaterviIIe.
Caught by Live Wires While Clearing
Away Fallen Limb.
Aged Al Years-Widow and Three
Children Survive Him.

Waterville, Me-, July 11.-(SpeciaD. =
Thomas Landry, the city electrician of
Waterville, was killed, at 1910 o'clock
tonight, by an electric shock from wires
on the big pole at the junction of Main,
Elm and Center streets.
A large limb of the big elm tree at
the junction had fallen upon the wires,
extending out toward the big pole.
A crew of linemen had been at work
clearing away the limb and was as
sisted by Mr.. Landry, who was look
ing out for the city's wires, the fire
alarm being among them.
He assembled the pole to see what was
holding the limb and was trying to
clear it away when he received shock.
He was in the midst of a tangle of
wires and so did not fall to the ground
but hung suspended, head down over
cross arm.
1t was impossible to get to him before
the current was turned off, which was
about 80 minutes.
AS soon as he could be reached he
was taken down by willing hands and
was taken to the undertaking rooms
of H. B. Smell where he was examined
by Drs. Rancourt, Bunker and Good
rich.
Death had apparently been instan-
taneous. The right hand was clenched
and badly burned on the inside. The
shirt sleeve on the left forearm was
burned in two places. one being severe.
An eye witness states that he was
holding onto a wire with his right hand
and struck at another wire, which was
fouled in the limb, with his left, thus
completing the circuit and getting the
fatal shock.
Just at this time the fire alarm cir
cult was crossed and two strokes were
sounded on the bells.
A big crowd saw the accident, but
were powerless to help the unfortunate
man. all Mortified by the terrible affair.
Mr. Landry was popular man. He
had been city electrician for some or
8 years and was very competent. he
was Al years of age and widow and
three children have the sympathy OF
the entire community.

When darkness fell Tracy was
thought to be securely penned on the
point of the western bluff, where he
had been concealed all the afternoon.
Though the guards were stationed
thickly. one being posted every 80 feet.
he successfully eluded them all and
travelled up the roadbed of the Palmer
cut off toward Covington, five miles
distant.
At 11.45 last night Tracy arrived at q
saw mill plant a mile from this place.
Deputy Sherffs J. G. Bunce. Fred
Bunce Calvin and Grove had been sent
to guard this point. Deputies Grove
and the Bunces, father and son, had
posted themselves on the railway near
the saw mill at the entrance of big
cut near a rise of ground. the Bunces
being on the outer guard line. They
had hardly settled when they heard
footsteps and Tracy soon put in an APP
pearance.
When challenged to halt Tracy start
ed to run. The Bunces opened fire,
shooting four times each. Tracy ran
up the track and a few yards further
encountered Grove. TO the officers chal-
lenge the outlaw coolly responded that
he was a deputy. Grove, thinking it
was the elder Bunce started to ap>
proach. when Tracy commenced shoot
ing at close range, firing two shots. The
bullets whistled harmlessly by, but
Grove suffered slightly from the burn
ing powder.
After the shooting Tracy turned and
entered the brush along the side of the
track, where he was lost in the dark
ness. The deputies made n hurried cir
Gle through the woods to Covington to
head Tracy off. but on their arrival
found that he had not passed the sta
ton.
Later it was learned that since his
escape from the north side of Sluice
creek, Tracy attempted to board one of
the eastbound freights. The grade is
heavy at this point, but the train was
running light and at such speed that
Tracy was unable to board it.
Another train passed and the con-
ductor reports that while running near
the saw mill some one called for him to
stop. There We're no deputies present
and it is thought Tracy was the man
who called. and the opinion is advanced
that he may have been wounded in the
battle just before midnight
A man thought to be Merrill, the
other escaped convict, appeared. yes

miles east of Kavendale, near here and

Campaign Expenses.

The law requiring candidates for
office to give an account of their ex-
penses is practically dead letter.
And the law is s'more honored in
the breach" The law is of no pub
lie value and an Interference with
individual rights. Candidates should
have made return of their expenses
before Dec. 4. Delaying they lay
themselves liable to a fine. If
candidate gave cigar to friend
and didn't report it he is a law
breaker! If any candidate for office
in this county spent any money in
the campaign the law says he must
report it.
The Star Times gives the ex-
pensc account of five candidates for
office in St. Croix county, all that re-
ported out of more than twenty to
whom the law applies. Four of
these five are Republicans and the
other Democrat. Their total ex-
penses were $8o8.5o. They paid
$112 for cigars. This went up in
smoke. H. H. Dean shelled out the
largest sum sos, who paid $40 for
cigars. All bought liberal supply
of cigars except J. D. O'Keefe.
He doesn't encourage smoking in
his department. There is no ac-
count made for liquid refreshments,
unless it is included in "incidentals,"
which footed up to $1,000.
