FOR HORSE STEALING
Bert Green Arraigned in the Num-
cipaI Court, Thursday.
Case Continued Because Of Conflicting
Evidence.

Bert Green, who lives on q farm,
about four and a half miles out of the
city, on the Eight Rod road, was be-
fore Judge Andrews, Thursday after
noon, charged with horse stealing. The
complaint was made by Mrs. Mead
eau, who was present in court for the
purpose of testifying. The trial took
more of the form of a dispute between
complainant and respondent than any
thing else, Judge Andrews evidently
deeming it the easiest way in which to
get at the facts in the case.
At the conclusion of the talk between
the two it was evident that there was
a large hole in the story of one or the
other and, as information, which has
been obtained by Marshal Breen tended
to show that Green was not guilty, his
honor continued the case until certain
witnesses could be secured later on.
The continuance was to no stated date
Green was allowed to go on his own
promise to appear when wanted.
From the story which Mrs. Neadeau
told to Judge Andrews when she made
the complaint, it appeared that on
Wednesday, she and two children went
out to a raspberry field, near where
Green lives. They made the trip in 4
buggy drawn by blind horse. The
rig was hitched beside the road and
they started picking berries Very
soon thereafter Green and his wife ap-
peared and ordered them off the prem
ises, saying that they had bought the
right to gather the berries and would
not permit anyone else to gather them.
She prepared to go. but first endeav-
ored to make certain that they told the
truth. This enraged them. They called
her some vulgar names and then I'M
! tied her horse and lead it off. She was
forced to walk home to Augusta.
In court she repeated this and Green
denied all knowledge of the transact
ton He did admit that he heard loud
talk between his wife and Mrs. Mead
eau.
Marshal Breen informed the judge
that Mrs. Green told him that it was
her and not her husband who turned
the horse loose The marshal also told
the court that Mr.. Steward, who lived
near the Greens, told him when he
went out after Fred, Thursday after
noon. that Mrs. Neadeau brought the
blind horse to his place, Wednesday
afternoon, and left it, saying that she
would come and get it. This, too, was
denied by the complainant and it was
this conflicting testimony which caused
Judge Andrews to continue the case
Towards the end of the hearing Mrs.
Neadeau charged Green with taking
her 15-year-old son and getting him
1r,,,1- on bord cider. after he had
turned the horse adrift. Then she as
serted that a year ago she was rasp-
berrying at the same place and Green
threatened her with a gun, going so
far as to fire at her.

TWO FREIGHT WRECKS
Cause General Disturbance With Maine
Central Train Service.

By two freight wrecks, one at Free
port in the forenoon, and another be-
tween Riverside and Vassalboro, in the
afternoon, through train service on the
Maine Central was interrupted almost
to point of being paralyZed, yesterday
Trains 81 and j., going east in the
morning, and A and GA going west,
went through on time, but there the
service ended practically for the day
Train 8, due in Augusta at 1920 P. M
was cancelled and trains II and 102
were sent around by the back route.
In the afternoon train 16 was made
up at Waterville, and came through on
time, but from that hour there was
not a train either way until 10 arrived
at 6.26, bringing mail express, and
coming around by the way of Leeds
Junction. This train was held until 925
in the evening, when it received or
ders to cross train 80 at Riverside.
At $50, train %, which is the even
ing train reaching Augusta from the
west at 1926. pulled in, being the first
train through from Portland since
morning. The track at Freeport was
open for travel at about 8 o'clock. but
no trains passed Riverside until about
midnight.
The wreck at Riverside was cleared
at II o'clock, Thursday night, for the
passage of trains. In the meantime the
train from the east due at 1920 Mad
proceeded from Waterville via Lewis
ton, so that the first train from the east
to reach Augusta after 8 o'clock in the
afternoon, Thursday, was No. 90, due
here at 7:10. No. s, due at $50 this
morning, was about half an hour late.
1t is understood that the wreck was due
to the train running into a washout.
The accidents caused a great deal of
delay and inconvenience in the mail
and express service and was the most
serious tie-up of traffic on this section
of the Maine Central for long time

In the adjutant generals office they
are wondering when some definite in
formation will be received in regard to
where the Maine soldiers will be sta
toned during the coming war game.
To the members of the regular army it
may seem of no consequence to have
no advance information, but the hand
ling of the States militia is different.
Members of the regular army have
their equipment for going on the
march and into camp ready for instant
use. With the militia this is different.
Instead of cluttering the armories of
the different companies throughout
the State with it. it is all stored here
in Augusta Before the soldiers can
60 into camp this stuff must be issued
to them, which takes some little time.
OF course, the men can be hurried
forward from their different cities ard
towns on short notice, it being posi-
BILE to mobilize the entire brigade of the
State Guard in Portland within "a
hours. This would necessitate lot of
quick work and when the men arrived
in the city they would not have the
necessary equipment to go into camp
with.
It is to enable them to have these
things distributed and have the men
prepared which is causing those in
charge of the preparations Of the
militia to wish that they could secure
the details for the distribution of the
Maine troops as soon as possible.
At one time it was thought that these
plans were all settled and the arrange
ments for the transporting of the men
had gone on to quite an extent. Then
the regular army officers in charge of
the game notified the Maine headquar-
tiers that plans had all been changed.
This makes it impossible for the Maine
Headquarters to do anything further
until details had been received.
BY some it is not believed that the
plans will be sent out until the last
moment and that it will then be case
of rush the soldiers forward in the
quickest possible time. Those who
think this way point out that in actual
warfare soldiers never know from one

ANNOUNCEMENT.
THE CoMMoNER FOR 1903.

On December II, 1900, it was
announced through the Associ-
ated Press that Mr.. Bryan was
about to begin the publication of
a weekly newspaper to be known
as The Commoner. Subscript-
ions began coming in Immediate
ly, and soon taxed the resources
at hand to properly care for
them. On January %, 1901, the
first number of the The Com
moner made its appearance.
The paper then consisted of eight
pages, but before the end of the
first year it was increased in
size to twelve pages, and during
the second year TO sixteen pages.
The circulation of The Common
er has made "A steady growth,
each week showing an increase
over the preceding week until
the paper, as it nears the end of
its second year, has a circula-
ton of 10000.
The year 1908 will be full of
interest TO those who are study
2g governmental problems,
Il During the next twelve months
the lines will be formed upon
which the next national cam
paign will be fought. During
this period it will be decided
whether the gold-corporatior
element known as 1.-THE reorgan-
izers" will gain control of the
democratic party or whether the
party will remain true TO demo-
cratic principles as they are Sc
froth in the Kansas City plat
form.
1t is the purpose of The Com
moner to carry on a campaign o
education and organization to tn,
end that democratic principles
may Triumph; and thinking mer
and women, of whatever politi'
cal faith, who desire TO study
both sides of penuIng questions
will find in its columns much val
liable information.

If Anadarko had few busi-
ness men like Geo. w. Bellamy
of FL Reno, people every where
would know that AnadarkO was
on the map and just where it is
located. He IS "A hustler, he be-
lieves in progression, he is made
on the git up and git" plan.
With him here to lead the cam
paign we could soon have three
railroads running into our city,
factories in operation. Electric
lights and all of the modern con-
veniences that go to build a city.
We have men here who can and
would do this, if they had the
hearty cooperation of the busi-
ness men with them. NOW we
want to say to the business men
of this city you are missing gold
en- opportunities. Capital can be
brought here, manufacturers are
looking for inducements to in
vest their capital, but they must
know where we are, what natur-
al advantages we have and that
we are anxious for them to come
here.

this was constructed last winter, adding 70 more miles to the system.
 Before the line from Fort Gibbon to Ketchumstock was finished last year forest fires broke out in the Panama district, and before they could be stepped over 200 miles of the govern ment line was destroyed. The poles were burned and the wire laid on the ground. Capt, Burnell at once put on an additional force of men and followed up the flames, so that by the time he left the North the damage was well on toward repair, and has since been com pleted.
 Probably the worst part of the coun- try over which the system was built lies between Valdez and Eagle, on one part of the system, and ketchumstock and Cinema, on the Panama line.
