FROM BAR HARBOR.

Another Seizure Basketball Victory
o. U. A. NJ. Council Recognized.
BAR dARBoR, April s (speelaL--s
urday afternoon Sheriff Whiteomb and
Deputy Sheriff Fields came down unher-
aided on the noon train, and made raid
on the saloon known as the Walter
Foss or james B. Eye place, and secured
quite large quantity of liquor. On the
tirst floor, front of the building there are
two bay windows, one on each side OF
the front door. Deep window-seats are
built in the rooms of which the windows
are part. One of these window-seats
was converted into hiding place for
liquor. The officers found in this sup
posed secret place enough whiskey In
nalf-pint, pint and quart bottles to fill
eight bushel baskets.
THE story OF the arrest and conviction
in connection with this seizure is told
elsewhere in this issue

The Bar Harbor Y. M. c. A. team de-
feated the Y. NJ. c. A. team from Bangor
at the Casino Friday evening, by the score
of 26 to q.
The local team fairly outplayed the Wis
itors, and clearly demonstrated their su-
periority In all departments Of the game.
The only two points won by the visiting
team were made on fouls.
At the end OF the first half the score
stood 16 to 2, and the result OF the game
was foregone conclusion.
A large crowd was present, and thor
oughly enjoyed the game, which though
very one sided was interesting to watch.
The game had an added interest from
the fact that the two teams had met
twice before during the season, and each
team had won once. The Bangor Y. M.
G. A. boys were victorious at Bangor by a
score Of 26 to II.
At the State Y. NJ. G. A. meet at Port
land not long ago Bar Harbo turned the
tables, and also won the State basket ball
championship by defeating Bangor ito 2.
A preliminary game was played Friday
evening between two teams OF middlers
of the local Y. M. c. A. The line-u up last
Friday was:
