believe it is just and right for the
State to assist in the rebuilding of
these bridges where the towns are not
able to do it; and if there is any case
in the State of Maine that is entitled
TO sympathy on this account, 1t is GER
tainly the towns of Wiscasset and
Edgecomb. We all know that those
towns have no means to raise money.
They have no business on which to levy
taxes, and they are just struggling for
an existence. 1t is impossible to raise
money in those towns to help this
bridge. and the State and county must
come to the rescue. 1t would retard
the progress of Lincoln county to have
this bridge go down-and 1t certainly
must go down, or be left as danger

trust the senators understanding this
matter will grant the $4,000 instead
of the $4,000. AS / understand it, the
10000 has been favorably considered
by the appropriate committee: and 1t
was at the last moment cut down to
$4,000. and | believe the committee are

LOOKS SUSPICIOUS.
Belief in Arthur PenneII's
Suicide Grows Stronger.
Strange Acts in Automobile Just Be-
fore the Fatal Plunge.
Interesting Developments Expected,
Today, in Burdick Inquest.

Buffalo, N. Y, March 25.-Since the
name of Arthur Il. Pencil became SC
prominent i'm the Burdick inquest. the
authorities have been accommodating
evidence bearing upon the death OF
Pennell and his wife resulting from
the plunge Of their automobile from
kensington avenue into Genres quarry
1t is likely that an inquest into the
death of the Pencils will follow the
Burdick inquest.
In tracing the movements of the Pen
nells on the evening of their fatal trir
the police have learned much. Dur
ing the hour and 10 minutes of that
drive four interesting incidents that
seem to be well substantiated, took
place.
The four unusual incidents to which
it is said witnesses are ready to testify
are, first, that the automobile was
driven up and down in front of a farm
house, slower than a walk for half ar
hour in the pouring rain; second. a
call at saloon where Pencil pro-
cured glass of whiskey for himself
and carried another to his wife; third
slowly circling around a certain point
for some time in the rain; and fourth
the letting down of the canopy of the
machine so the occupants We're ex-
posed to the heavy downpour, two OF
three minutes before the automobile
took its fatal plunge.
Mrs. Martin Hull, the mothers in law
of the murdered man, is likely to be re-
called when the inquest is resumed
She has been subpoenaed second
time.
Rev. Levi M. Powers, pastor of the
Church of the Messiah, may also be
called.
Herbert M Hill, city chemist, will al
so be a witness.
Il expect to wind up the inquest, to-
morrow noon,' said District Attorney
Coatsworth, this afternoon. We have
brought out at this inquest everything
that We have. The public knows now
as much about the case as the authori-
ties do

every fact concerning the $4,000 bond

ties possess
All | know about it is that it was
given Mrs. Burdick. May l, 1901, and
was conditioned upon the payment of

U. of M. INDOOR MEET.
Fine List of Entries for Annual Event
Saturday Evening.

Orono, Me, March 25.-(SpeciaD -
On Saturday evening of this week,
March 2Sth. the annual indoor meet of
the University of Maine Athletic AS
ISOLATION takes place in the gymnasium
at Orono The list of events includes
jumping, Vaulting, diving, tumbling,
pyramids, hurdlinS, running, putting
the shot, a bar bell drill, and a relay
race between teams from the four
classes. The runs include the 25-yard
dash, the 25-yard low hurdles, and the
25-yard high hurdles. Among the
jumps are the high jump and the pole
vault. One of the most interesting
events will be the class relay race and
great expectations are entertained Of
The senior class, two of it's members
being members of the regular Varsity
relay team. In so far as possible the
meet will be distinctly a class affair
and competition is up to the pitch
where an interesting time is assured.
Following the meet there will be a
basket ball game between teams from
the sophomore and freshman classes
The game that the freshmen put up
against the Colby freshmen three
weeks ago is in itself assurance enough
mat the game on Saturday will be
fast and exciting. The great rivalry
between the two classes, moreover, in
tensifes the spirit and the Soph's
will have a stiff proposition to handle
before the evening is over. The card
is certainly good one and the pros
poets are all that can be expected for
another successful meet Eight o'clock
is the hour scheduled for the first
event as the program is a long one and
will take considerable time to run off.

 for the folly of labor disagreements.
 For wrangling between the wage earn.
 CTS and their employees is folly. and
 nothing else. Surely the laborer i,
 worthy of his hire. as is the employer
 of loyal and faithful service. and in a
 nation claiming to be Christian. and eoastirg of high civilization, founded on the gospel of peace and good will
 among men, there should be in force q
 system that would ensure the one fa,r
 wages ani the other honest service through the compelling influence Of tho popular will. even though there may not be a written statute establish shiay.;t and providing for its operation.
 fhat this check of industry is large. " answerable for the doubt concern Ing the continuance of our prosperity at present disturbing the public mind hardly needs to be said.
