BULLET IN BRAIN.
Dandy Warner Of Gardiner in
Critical Condition.
Shot Himself, at Home, After Spell
ofHeayy Drinking.
First Accused and Then Exonerated
Wife-Is at Hospital.

Gardiner, Me-, Nov. l. (SpeciaD.-
this city, Saturday afternoon, that at
one time had a bit the appearance of
tragedy but which later in the after
noon was cleared up. By the affair,
which happened, Friday evening, Dan
by Warner, who has been engaged as a
driver of one of the delivery wagons of
the Gardiner Beef Co., is at the City
hospital at Augusta with Il bullet in his
brain and with small hopes of recov-
cry.
The beginning of the affair was on
Friday evening, when Mr.. Warmers
wife came up from Bath, where Mr..
Warner was located before entering the
employ of the Beef Co. some five
months ago, and with her husband
went 10 his room over Jackins' restau-
rant. MI. Warner had been drinking
heavily, Friday, and was much the
worse on account of it. Mrs. Warner
had had several similar experiences
with her husband and so was somewhat
prepared for what followed. Mrs. Var
ner said, Saturday morning:
After being in the room about an
hour she had talked with him and
chided him for drinking. She heard
the report of q revolver and saw blood
on the side of his head. She undressed
her husband and put him to bed, but
did not have an idea of the seriousness
of the affair Dr. w. p. Giddings was
called, Saturday morning, and the man
was taken to the hospital at Augusta,
where it was found that the bullet had
entered his head just below his right
ear and that it had lodged at the base
of the brain. The bullet was probed
for but was not removed.
At the hospital, that day, while Mr.
Warner was coming out from under the
effect of the ether he made the state
ment that his wife had shot him. This
statement led to the arrest of Mrs. Var
ner in this city by City Marshal An
dreWs. A hearing was given hep at the
fytSce court and sufficient cause was
3Shnd and she was bound over to the
J Guary term of court and rcmanded to
the Jail in Augusta. Just as she was
to be taken to the car for Augusta, a
telephone message reached the officers
in this city from County Attorney
Leigh that Warner had rcgained con-
seriousness at the hospital and had ex-
onerated his wife from all blame i'm the
affair and made the statement that he
did the shooting himself. Mrs. Warner
was Immediately released from custody
and went to Augusta and saw her hus-
band at the hospital.
The affair is Il very strange one, as
it was kept quiet and did not reach the
ears of the authorities until the next
afternoon. The situation was a par
ticularly trying one for Mrs Warner
and when the relaxation from the Sc
we're nervous strain came when she was
told that her husband had relieved her
from any part Of the affair. she nearly
went into convulsio0s After seeing Mi.
Warner at the hospital she went to Bath
ana returned to Augusta, Sunday.
Meanwhile Mr.. Warner is in a very
critical condition.

A CLEAN RECORD.

During 1902 there were PIG arrests in
Rutland. OF the number "a were intox-
ication cases, 80 breach of the peace,
and % for furnishing liquor. This is an
exceedingly clean record for a city of
1900. Would the record be as good
under license system? That is the
practical question before the people for
answer. la Rutland there are four

TO each $500 population, while in New
York city-perhaps a fair criterion by
which to Judge license cities-there is
one policeman to each 500 people.-Rut

NURSERY AGENT.

When the nursery agent makes his
appearance at your door, with his ag-
gravating smile and inquiry why you
don't grow more fruit, use him kindly.
You may want favor of him when he
gets down to Washington and holds a
rod over your head. Secretary Shaw, of
Vermont origin and Iowa greatness, was
once an 'apple tree agent" That wasn't
all he was. He was the best agent the
firm had and rarely failed to make an
impression on the farmer he desired to
sell to. Out in Iowa it is said he holds
the soubrquet among the Changers OF
"Apple Tree Shaw" Those who have
sturdy trees bought from him now point
them out with pride to all who come in
range. and If rumOr be true every farmer
in the state has Shaw trees on his place
or have had since the agent became sc
famous.-Burlington Clipper.
