PECULIAR ACCIDENT
Thought to Have Been the Cause Of
VIM. Halls Death.

stonington. CT, March 29.-The rhys-
terry in connection with the disappear
anee of young William Hall, Nov. 10
last. was cleared up, today, when O
party of boys found Halls body in
swamp in the northern part of the
town. Near the body was gun and a
pelt of a fox. Medical Examiner
Steadman. who viewed the body, de-
cided that death was accidental. He
is of the opinion that Hall shot the
fox but did not succeed in killing it and
rather than injure the pelt started to
club the animal to death and in doing
so accidentally discharged the gun. A
bullet wound was found in the young
mans breast.

not one of these nor all combined have
led to such feeling of security in the
belief that spring was really here as
this brief item conveying the Informal
ton that Hart Bachelor has put his
thumb out of place playing ball.
Oscar Foster of Bucks Harbor ex-
perienced a most unusual accident the
other morning. He left his home at an
early hour in the morning to go to the
wood lot where he was engaged in
cutting wood, and was walking along
the path when he was knocked down
and run over by a pair Of foxes. The
path in which he was walking led along
in front OF a ledge in the cleft OF which
the foxes probably had passed, the
night. AS he approached their, place
of concealment the animals evidently
became frightened and as there was
no avenue of escape save in the direc-
ton of the approaching woodsnlan the
larger of the two foxes sprang forward
in a wild run for the forest. AS the
animal leaped into the patch it came
so forcibly in contact with Mr.. Foster
that he was thrown to the ground, and
the second fox, which followed close
behind the leader, leaped upon him as
he pursued the other with all haste.
Mr. Foster was entirely ignorant of
the presence of the foxes until they
knocked him down and We're passing
over him.
Today the traveller who goes to
Aroostook sees wide belts of forest
lands reaching away from various sec
TONS Go there next year and the
woodland will be growing a crop of
oats. A year more, potatoes will be
bulging from the rows made among
the stumps, and barns, houses and
villages will be under construction.
Wait but a few years more and the
stumps will be gone, churches and fac
tories and railroad stations will stand
in the late woodlots, and the forest
will be 50 far away that most of the
people will be using coal. Nowhere
east OF the Mississippi river has there
been such a rapid and so marked an
agricultural development as has taken
place in Aroostook county during the
past ten years. No one who has not
been there and seen the transforma-
tons can believe the story which is
being told in practical results every
season. The marvel of last year is
surpassed and left far behind this sea-
son, and so the wonder grows from
year to year until only those who have
made note of the events can realize
what has been done.

The Adjournment of the Legislature

The Adjournment of the Legislature.
The Legislature has practically COM
Melted its work, but instead of adjourn
ing sine die, as is usually the case at
the close of a session, it has merely
adjourned over until September, when
it will come together again for the
purpose of ratifying the revision of the
statutes.
It is a little early now, in the haste
and worry and work that has charac-
terized the close of the session. 10 ac-
curately summarize the legislation Oh
the past IL weeks. Never in the his
tory of the State has such volume
of legisla ton been enacted by the law
makers at the Capitol. 1t was, from
first to last. strenuous session. IN
1901. the total number of printed bilis
for the session was 624. OF this num-
her. $50 were in the Senate, and 4'4
in the House. In the session that closed
Saturday evening the total number Oh
nrinted bills reached S20-an increase
IF 1906. OF this increase nearly tWo-
thirds was in the Senate, when re-
norted nearly double the number OF
printed bills that it did in 1901.
or course a portion of this increase
NAV be traced to the revision Oh the
statutes, which necessitated the repeai
or amendment of number which, III
the course of two decades, and had pc
come inapplicable to present cohoi-
t,ons If was a cleaning up OF statu-
torv dead wood. The number OF blils
introduced for this purpose were ABOUT
GO.
There was the usual thrifty CROWN
in priyate and special legislation.
The increase, however, in the NUM-
her of acts was notable. In 19ol the
total was ass. The past winter it was
664, an increase OF EOS.
In 1901, the number OF pubic acts
WAS 1872. This year the number was
239-an increase of 81.

The associations of the winter nave
been exceedingly pleasant, ana the
friendships formed during the past
winter will endure through life.
To the presiding officers OIL ooth

which they have discharged the I'M

us again and so we will not say good

hone that all of them may be alive
and we'll to attend the special session
