game. The score resulted in vic

had imbibed ardent spirits to the
extent of overIndulgence and his To-

The people of Mortified will note
with pleasure, or otherwise, that the
town has come to the front again after
brief lull, it has reached newspaper
notorlety and resumes its old position
in yellow journalism. Almost every
paper in New England has at least
column of space devoted to the latest
sensational topic. The first item to
greet the eye upon picking up paper
is Martin still at large" The great
excitement burned itself out with the
firing of the wheat field and the climax
was reached when the field glass was
shot from the hands of the sheriff as
reported by all over active imaginative
reporter of the Boston Post. People
outside the place seem to be more
wrought up over the affair than do
those of the town. The matter is Sc
rlous enough, however, and it is hoped
that in the course of events that in
due time that Martin will be brought
before the bar of justice.
