Lakewood Notes.

The attraction of the theater next
week will be the farce comedy, "What
Became of Parker"
Next Sundays attractions at this re-
sort will be band concerts by the Mac.
cabee Band of Skowhegan.
The special train from Waterville on
Sunday last, accompanied by Halls
Military Band, brought one of the larg-
est crowds of excursionists Of the season.
Mr.. Nell Twomey has scored another
decided success In his charming comedy
OF rural life, 1.-THE Postmaster's Daugh-
ter" being produced at the theater, this
week, many pronouncing the piece the
equal, II not superior, to anything yet
given. In the setting of the stage for
the first act, country store is repro
duced, at one corner of which is a
miniature post office, and at one side a
staircase leads to the tenement above
occupied by the old postmaster and his
daughter. This Is also the scene of the
second and fourth acts and Mr.. Fleming,
the scenic artist, is to be congratulated
upon the true painting he has given It.
1t Is especially pleasing to the host Of
friends OF Miss Rice to see that little
lady in part that gives full scope for
her ability, and as 1.-THE Postmaster's
Daughter" she captivates the audience
and gives bit of realistic acting that Is
rarely seen. Mr.. Twomey as her manly
lover is all that could be asked, while
right we'll do the rest of the company
assume the parts assigned them. The
introduction of horse on the stage is a
pleasing feature, and the little animal
divides the honors with Miss Rice In this
piece.

TOM WATSON WITH A SHOT GUN
Politician-Literateur Defied His Enemies in
Streets of Thomson

A letter reviewed In Savannah yes
terday says the town of Thomson has
been in a ferment of excitement for
two days on account of armed hostin-
ties in which Hon. Thomas E. Watson
was the central figure.
Only Tuesday was the situation clear
ed through the action of Intermediates,
who, in the role of peacemakers, used
their good offices between the warning
parties and restored the usual quiet of
the town and induced the factions, into
which a large portion of the. citizens
had resolved themselves, to lay aside
arms and give over any hostile pur-
poses.
For some time there had been rela-
tons of more than a strained charac-
ter between Mr.. Watson and what is
known as the liquor element of the
town. Several days ago some caustic
remarks, accumulated with liberal ours
ing, were made about Mr.. Watson in
a barber shop by a young man of the
town. These remarks reached the ears

II suppose we will have considerable
talk this winter about the next Demo-

plans for the campaign next year will
be laid. The general opinion now
seems to be that we must nominate
some man who has the confidence Of
the East and who can carry sufficient
electoral votes in that section to win.
German, Parker and Olney are the
names being most talked of. My inn
preston is that Germans nomination
would be mere satisfactory to the
South than that of any other man
whose name is now being considered"

CONGRESSMAN BRANTLEY
DECLARES FOR GOVERNOR

Brunswick. Ga. Nov. 4.-Congress-
man w. G. Brantley leaves to-
morrow for Washington to attend the
special session of Congress, which con-
venes on Monday next.
Mr.. Brantley said to-day:
THE President in his call limits the
work of this session to the Cuban re-
ciprocity treaty. So far as the House
is concerned, l look to see the work
limited to that one thing. The Speak
err will so limit it by not appointing
committees. In the Senate, however,
where the committees stand over from
session to session, other matters may
be considered.
1.-THE reciprocity treaty ought, in my
opinion, to be ratified. In addition to
the justice 1t does, it's ratification,
believe, will be beneficial to the South.
In the matter of cotton goods alone,
the statement is made that the prefer
ence shown American goods, under this
treaty, as against foreign cotton
goods, will increase the cotton exports
of the United States to Cuba at least
Sc, 000,O 600 per year.

the public artesian well of the place
AS a man of indomitable personal
courage, Mr.. Watson is noted. He did
not hesitate to demand an explanation.
Nor did the other hesitate. He admit
ted having made statements about Mr..
Watson, whom he proceeded to curse.
A personal difficulty was averted
through the interference of bystanders
at the time, but Mr.. Watson's antag-
onist has several brothers and kins-
men, who rallied at once, heavily arm
ed, to his support.
Then Mr.. Watson concluded that it
was time for him to make greater pro-
vision for his safety than his bare
hands afforded. He went to a hard
ware store and secured a double-bar-
relied shotgun. He walked out upon
the street, and only by chance was
fire not opened by the opposing parties.
Reports have it that the negroes of
the place took to the woods" and that
the whites were on the verge of civil
war, one element backing Mr.. Watson
against the other.

SHOP GIRLS VICTIMS

Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. 4-One per-
son was killed outright and fifty-one
others injured, two of them perhaps
fatally, in the collision of two cable
cars in fog early to-day on the steep
Twelfth street viaduct.
Most of the injured were shop girls
on their way from their home in Kan
sas City, Kan, to the big department
stores on the Missouri side.
The dead girl. Nellie Luscombe, aged
20, a clerk, was killed instantly. She
was found buried beneath the debris
of the wrecked trains. A small piece
of steel, the size of a lead pencil, had
been driven into the girls skull be-
tween the eyes, and the left side of
her head was crushed. She was so
badly disfigured that 1t was several
hours before she was identified.
OF the injured, Carrie Mooney, also
dry goods clerk, who suffered both
legs broken, and Herman Watkins, a
clerk in the Methodist Book Concern,
whose jaw was broken and who was
otherwise hurt, will die, it is believed.
Seventeen others were more or less
seriously hurt, five of them sustain
ing broken bones. The other thirty
four injured sustained only minor cuts
and bruises.
All the injured live in Kansas City,
Kan, or its suburbs.

Johnson Thinks the Senator Had
Them Fooled.
Cleveland, o., Nov. Atom L.
Johnson, the defeated Democratic
candidate for governor of Ohio, to-
night gave out a statement relative to
the election in the state. which says:
1.-THE result in Ohio is due to sew
eral causes, of which the chief was
the successful attempt of Senator
Hanna to impress upon the people of
this state that a continuance of I'M
disturbed business conditions demand
ed his return to the Senate.
I'm the last few weeks of the cam
paign the closing of mills and the
discharging of thousands of workmen,
together with bank and business fail
ures throughout the country gave color
to Senator Hanna's claim that the
issues of more immediate Importance
than the betterment of our local con-
ditions.
II hope that Senator Hanna's state
ment that his reelection will pre-
serve the industrial and business sit
uation from disturbance will be veri-
fled, and that confidence, which he
believes to be the basis of prosperity,
will be preserved.
paign used a fund larger in amount
than any other similar fund in the
history of state politics. This cam
paign fund was furnished by privileg-
ed interests throughout the country,
they not unnaturally feeling that Sena-
tor Hanna was their national repre-
sentative. The magnitude of this fund
enabled the Republican committee to
give the widest possible circulation to
their claim that business prosperity de-
pended upon Senator Hanna's re-elec-
ton.
THE use of money on a tremendous
scale was expected. The unfamiliar
ity of a portion of the people of the
state with the principles of the plat
form was understood. We knew that
the people of the state could not be
bought, and were prepared to con-
vince them of the truth of our prin-
ciples, but that Senator Hanna's re-
election could be identified with the
maintenance of business prosperity,
and that the fear of the people of a
return to hard times could be success
fully appealed to, was not anticipated,
and this more than anything else ac-
counts for the result"

, How London Views 1t.

London, Nov 5.-The morning papers
here display a greater interest in the
outcome of the revolution on the 18TH
mus of Panama than in the Democratic
victory in Greater New York. Con-
corning the Panama situation, the view
is expressed on all sides that the
United States are not unwilling to see
the success of the revolution, which
would so greatly facilitate the sue
cessful carrying out of the canal
scheme, and while no paper expresses
objection to such a solution, some are
inclined to think it would be best in
the interest of civilization. In this
case, however, 1t is recognized that, if
not actually absorbed, Panama would
become practically an American sphere
of influence.

performed the operation on Smith. All
three of them testify that Smith was
shot three times in the back. DR..
