Tho October term of the supreme
,,d,oial court for Hancock county con-
vsned Tuesday morning. Court was
orened with prayer by Rev. David Kerr.
The term promises to be a busy one, par
,,cuIarly In the line of criminal business
a, which there Is a large amount.
Among the cases on this list to be s.
,osed of is the famous Guy Grindle case
,,on, Penobscot, which has been pending
,or about a year. Guy Grindle, the
accused, by his own confession, assaulted
and nearly killed Mrs. Eliza c. Littlefield,
wife OF Capt. Joseph B. Littleield, OF
penobscot, on the morning Of October 2,
1902.
At the October term OF court a few days
later his counsel entered plea OF insan-
,ty. aud he was sent, by order Of Chief
Justice wiswell, to the insane hospital at
Augusta for the direct observation OF
Dr.. B. T. Sanborn, to determine II he was
mentally responsible for the terrible deed.
AT the April term DIR. Sanborn asked
for more time, which was granted.
Grindle was brought to Ellsworth last
Friday, and Is now at the county jail
awaiting trial. His counsel are l.. B.
Deasy and o. F. Fellows.
Another case in which much interest
centres is that of Robert Milliken, OF
Prospect Harbor, who was found guilty
IN the preliminary hearing before Judge
BE. Clark at Prospect Harbor, October
5,oi being responsible for criminal opera
ton and was held in e, 900 bonds to await
the action of the grand jury.
1t Is also possible that new develop
meuts may appear Ia the Jennings case
from Isle au Haut. The theory of the
coroner's jury that Jennings met bis
death by accident is not generally
accepted by the county officers, aud inves-
tigatiou is still going on.
New Developments may also be looked
Tor in The Hewey s12, 600 incendiary IRE.
No arrests have been made but the
officers are still at work on the case.

kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble. because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
1t used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were TO be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ming in kidney trouble.

RISE OF VILLAVERDE
New Prime Minister of Spain
Child of the People.
Made His Way to the Front by Watch-
ing Trend of Public Opinion and
True Devotion to HIS Fa-
xherland.

Don Raimundo Villaverde, Spain's
middle-class mortals. His parents were
modest, well-to-do country folk, but
there was noreason to suppose that their
boy was going to climb up to the highest
post within the gift of the Spanish peo-
pie. He started out as lawyer endowed
with brains and an eloquent tongue, per-
severance and lots of ambition. There
after the steps of fame were Interestingly
marked. He had crowds of clients and
was elected to parliament. Afterward
he attracted attention by hard work,
participation in every possible debate
and mastering all sorts of dry subjects
He was too busy to concern himself with
the brilliant aristocracy of Madrid
which had shown some inclination to
take to its bosom such good-looking
and promising young man.
He made sudden dash into society I'M
der the wings of the duchess de Denia,
at whose palace guest could meet every
body-the greatest politicians, artists
and men of science to be found in Madrid.
The smart young member from Galicia
soon made himself popular in this set
and for the first time seems to have been
DETECTED from his path to glory. So
many Spanish beauties Of high degree
lavished their affections on him that he
became for while veritable butterfly
of fashion.
A rich and attractive woman, the mar
chioness of Pozo Rubio, offered to marry
the handsome young gallant and was
forthwith accepted. Senor Villaverde
then put definite stop to all frivolity and
once more devoted himself to fruitful
labor for the welfare of his country, be-
ing no longer required to sacrifice all

4 Boys victory.

Crossroads, Tenn, Sept. l4.-Orbra Young.
the ten-year-old son of Lester Young OF thu
place, is bright boy, and one who is very
well liked by all who know him.
For some years Orbra has suffered great
deal with form of Kidney Trouble which
was very annoying, and which made him mis-
ertble all the time. He had to get up three
or four times every night, almost all his
life.
His father heard of remedy called Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and bought some for the lit
tie alow with the result that he is now com
pletely cured of the old trouble He says:
"Dodd's Kidney Pills soon gave me great
relief, and now ! can sleep all night without
having to get up: We will always praise
Dodd's Kidney Pills"
There are many children suffering from
Kidney and Urinary troubles. These dis
orders should be promptly corrected. Dodd's
Kidney Pills is a safe and sure remedy foI
all such arrangements.
Master Orbra Young conquered his trou.
bles and made a well boy of himself by using
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and any one may do
the same by the same means.
Parents should see to it that their children
are given a fair chance in life. and there is
nothing that can undermine the health OF
a growing child as much as Kidney and Uri
nary arrangements.

a GOOD FISH STOR
New York Nan Finds Gold Coin I'm
Stomach of n Cod. Publishes the
Fact. and Kansas Man Claims the
Mnnev.

Money.
Some weeks ago 4. L. Levy, of New
York city, went fishing down at the
fishing banks. His luck was not eX-
ceptionally good, but when he
reached home and the catch had been
cleaned he found that he had broken
the record. In the stomach of cod
was found $40 gold piece, with two
diamonds set ON one side and the ini-
tials "P. c. E." on the other. Mr..
Levy was so amazed that he sent the
story to the papers and it was copied
throughout the country. This he
thought would be the end of it, and
the matter slipped his mind and was
forgotten. But recently he received
a letter from Patrick c. Evans, resid-
ing in Kansas, who claims the $40
piece as his own, and Mr.. Levy will
surrender it to him. Mr.. Evans in
his letter tells the following story:
Il saw some days ago in a St.
Louis paper an item about your
catching Goldfish which when you
opened it gave up SO gold piece, on
one side of which were n couple of
diamonds and on the other the let
ters p. C. E. The coin is my prop
erty, Mr.. Levy. The coin is valuable
to me, for the following reason:

to go into a wildcat gold mining
scheme in Colorado. / paid the piper
to the tune of about $4,000 before

The only thing l got out of the enter

me not to be played as n sucker by

Denver, Col, put two diamonds in
the piece, charging me $50 for the
job, and | guess the transaction is

HISTORY OF PANAMA
Little State Which Now Threatens
to Secede from Colombia.
II Contains the Oldest City on the
American Continents and Is Inter-
estinR in Many other Wnys-A
Port of Great Importance.

Should the Colombian congress fall
TO ratify the canal treaty, as now
seems probable, and this failure re-
suit in a revolution in Panama. as also
seems probable, there is likely to be
established in Central America some
new international boundary lines of
more than passing interest.
Press dispatches tell us that plans
for the revolution are going on apace,
and that seemingly nearly every resi-
dent of the state is in favor of break
ing away from the government at Bo-
gotta and declaring the independence
of Panama for the purpose of granting
a right of wav for the canal to the
United States. 1t does not take much
of a prophet to imagine the stars
stripes flying over the entire isthmus
in the near future, and Panama be-
coming the next addition to our terri
tory in our programme of expansion.
So far have the plans for the revolu-
tion gone, and so sure of success are
the leaders, that even the boundary
lines to be demanded of Colombia have
been decided upon. They will give the
state total length of AIS mics.
St Augustine is the Oldest city in
the United States at the present time,
but should we get this slic; OF Colom-
bia that city would have TO take a
back seat in favor of Panama. which is
the oldest city founded by Europeans
in either @ the Americas. The foun-
dation of Panama was laid by Pedro
Arias Davila in 1913. There was then
but one other settlement of Europeans
on either continent that Of Santa
Maria el Antigua, near the Atrato,
which was afterwards abandoned, and
of which no trace now remains.
Panama has always been an impor-
tant point in the history of Central
and South America. Through 1t passed
the gold and silver of Chill and Peru
on its way TO Spain; it was the center
Of religious activity for that section of
the world on the part of the Jesuits,
and there are within it to-day several
notable buildings erected by the
monks. OF it's church buildings the
most notable is that of Santa Ana, the
rallying point for the revolutionists Of
the past. Much of the original city
was destroyed by the buccaneer Nor
gan on February "a 1911. when, after
three weeks of rapine and murder, he
burned the warehouses and many of
the public buildings, and with 175
mules laden with spoils and 600 rris-
oners he recrossed the isthmus to the
Caribbean. Two years later the Span
ish Villacorta began rebuilding the
city, and though it has suffered from

FEARED A SEPARATION.
The Dear Little Lamb Was Afraid

Her father had read her the parable OF the
sheep and me goats at the day of judgment.
She made no comment, but that night a
sound Of weeping came from her room, Her
mother went as consoler, relates Brooklyn
Life.
why are you crying, dear"
about the goats! On, I'm so afraid I'm

why, no, dearie, you are sweet little
lamb, and if you should die tonight you
would go straight to Heaven" With this
and like assurances she was finally pacifed.
The next night the same performance was
repeated, and again her mother inquired the
reason,
It's the goats! I'm afraid about the
goats!"
Didn't tell you, dear, that you were a
little lamb?'
oh" she sobbed, I'm not crying about
myself, but I'm 'fraid you may be a goaL!'

THE WORLDS LEPERS
Dread Disease Has Invaded Praoki-
cally Every Country and Race.
Strict Regulations Against IL Are
Having Good Effect In LOOsenins
Its Grasp-RaEes Through
out the Orient.

Recent Investigations in Norway show
that leprosy in that country is loosening
its grasp, and that the government has
been justified in enforcing its strict iso-
lation regulations.
Though dark races have been more
subject to the scourge of leprosy than the
white, in every country and race there
have been many victims of the dread
disease.
Leprosy has existed since the records
of history, and perhaps in prehistoric
days it worked its rayages ip both Asia
and Africa. Until the Crusades, it was
practically unknown in Europe, but be-
ginning with that period 1t spread at a
dangerous rate. During the Middle Ages,
almost every village in Great Britain and
France had it's leper hospital. Men pres
emily demanded to be segregated from

The self-made man is often a very good

suffers from over eXertion OF the egotism.
Somehow, the ears OF the selt-made man

The self-made man escaped one great afflc-
ton. He didn't have baccalaureate sermon

And, oh! if he could only remember that
there are always others just as insgniti-

revolutions. earthquakes and other
frightfuI affairs, there is much left to-
day that reminds one of the old Span
ish reign.
To run a canal through this narrow
neck of land from Colon to panama
has beef the dream of mankind since
1927, when H. de la Serna explored a
route. There are to-day nearly a dozen
routes surveyed across the isthmus,
but only on the one undertaken by De
Lesseps has there been any noticeable
amount of work done.
The enti'e state consists practically
of barren range of low mountains,
and would be of small interest to the
world in general were it not for the
proposition to connect the two oceans
through it, and also for the existence
of the Panama railroad which has
been in operation since 1855, and was
the first railroad which connected the
two oceans. This railway is to-day,
short though it is, one of the impor-
tant lines of transportation of the
world, and pays to its stockholders
probably larger dividends than any
other similar enterprise. 1t has made
both Panama and Colon ports of no
small importance, and on it and the
canal hinge the value of the state.
If the revolution occurs, and the
state is successful in it's fight for inde-
pendence, it will hold within it's bor-
ders practically every practical route,
with the exception of the one through
Nicaragua, for an interoceSnic canal.

his time and talent to his profession,
Senior Villaverde studied assidulously So
cial and economical sciences for which
he had always felt a prediction, and
through his great intelligence soon rose
to prominence. He was successfully
named minister of justice and of finance
TO the general satisfaction.
The most interesting period of Villa
verde's political career began in 1899
after the disastrous war with the United
States. When the treaty of peace had
been signed and new cabinet, presided
over by the leader of the conservative
party, Senor Silvela, was formed politi-
cal men as well as the majority of the
people recognized the urgent necessity of
introducing ample and radical reforms
into all branches of public administra-
tion and adopting a sound and liberal
policy apt to raise the credit of the land.
Senor Villaverde, who occupied in Sill
vela's cabinet the post of minister of
finance, brought bill of taxation before
parliament, with which he intended to
increase the income of the treasury from
$4,000, 900 to 1000 900 900 pesetas and
with his peculiar energy and frmness
he succeeded in having his project ap-
proved.
But this heavy taxation raised such
storm of protest throughout the whole
of Spain and so numerous and bloody
were the riots which 1t caused in various
provinces that Senor Villaverde was
obliged to send in his resignation and
two or three months afterward, partly
owing to this and partly to the unpopular
marriage of the princess of the Asturias
with Don Carlos of Bourbon, the whole
cabinet was also forced to resign. The
with the formation of new ministry,
but in consequence of the unpopularity
of his taxes, he found nobody disposed to
second him in the work and therefore
he had to renounce the charge.
Later the announcement that the gov
ernment, through SenCr Sanchez Toca.
intended to bring bill into parliament
for the construction of the fleet, was suf-
ficient to call forth demonstrations of
hostility in the chamber of deputies. as
well as all over Spain Then King AL
phonso, interpreting the desires of his
country, called on Senor Villaverde to
form a new cabinet. The elevation of
this distinguished statesman to the high
est office signifies the triumph of firm
and saving financial policy of Spain.
