GILMORE KEEPS MULE.
Weaver Sues for Team He-S0ld b. J.
Taylor-Justice decides it Shall go
to Creditors.

to Creditors.
The suit of P. w. Weaver against
B. j. Taylor for the recovery of team
of mules was decided by Justice Shoe
maker to-day. The team is to DE
sold, and the proceeds go TO the
creditors. William Gilmore. who
traded for one of the mules, will get
to keep it. Weaver wanted it back.
About the first OF April B. j. Tay-
lor bought OF P. W. Weaver, Of Pres
ton county, as the papers show, two
mules. A week after this Mr.. Taylor
left town very unceremoniously, and
there was general hustle among the
creditors to get attachments executed
on his property. They levied on the
team of mules among other things,
but Taylor had traded off one Of the
original mules In the meantime to
VIM. II. Gilmore for a mule he had.
Mr. Weaver came for the team and
wanted to take the mule Mr.. Gilmore
had traded for. Gilmore refused to
give il, and the ownership depended
upon the decision of Squire Shes
maker in the case of Weaver against
Taylor, tried in his court yesterday.
There was quite an array of legal tai
ent employed on the case. Robert e.
Guy Represented Weaver, and Lag
zeile, T. d. Stewart, Donley and
Hundley spoke fer creditors.

BAD WEATHER
Has Put a step to Every Kind of Ont
door Work.

The rain has put stop to every
thing in progress out Of doors.
The stopping OF work on the street
car line Is probably the most objec-
tionable feature of the stoppage The
streets are torn up badly, but the mat
ter cannot be helped. 1t is to be
hoped that the rain will let up long
enough to relay the paving aud have
the tracks laid before long.

AFFIDAVIT OF
ANNUAL LABOR.
Such Proof Required by Law in
Most of the Mining States

Proof Of annual labor is prescribed
by statue in nearly all the mining
States. The time for filling this GER
tificate in Arizona is within three
months. California and Washington,
thirty days, Idaho and New Mexico,
sixty days. Nevada. sixty days. Utah
and Wyoming thirty days. after the
work IS done.
In Colorado it has been held that
neglect to file the proof Of labor would
not leave the claim open to relocation.
If the annual labor was in fact done
and some OF the Federal Judges have
taken the same position. In Idaho the
courts have decided that the effect Of
the omission is to only raise a disrepu-
table presumption that the annual
labor had not been done. The Califor-
mia act purports to make the filing OBJ
ligatory but a close reading of 1t will
show that there is nc express penalty
attached to a failure to file the affi-
davit. other than the presumption Of
non-performance Of the annual labor.
which of course a be generally over
throw by oral evidence in court.
1t is not likely that any court will
hold that a mining claim will be for
feited by neglect TO file an affidavit Of
labor when the statue itself does not
prescribe such forfeiture as a penalty.
Penalties civil or criminal, are not
created by mere constructions Of law.
1t is indeed a legal maxim that the
law abhors forfeitures and will never
impose them unless the statue admits
Of no other logical construction. To do
otherwise would be contrary TO nat
ural justice and cause technicalities to
run mad.
Nevertheless the %precaution to file
the annual proof Of labor should not be
neglected by any prudent claim owner.
The filing Of it makes out the proof Of
the fact Of the labor having been done.
which in its absence might afterwards
be a difficult mattsr to show. 1t Is
the best record substitute for a United
States patent. without which no claim
is considered secure In modern times.

YACHTS AND BOATS.

The Reliance has been selected to defend
the cup.
Mr.. and Mrs. f. w. Aver and family and
Mrs. N. c. Aver left Bangor on the yacht
Helena, Saturday afternoon, for cruise.
They will go to Camden, Bluehill and Seal
Harbor before returning to Bangor.
Bucksport complains that for, the first
time since the town was discovered it is
without yacht of any size, and it is impos-
sible to procure big boat for cruise down
the bay without going to some other place.
The steam yacht Helena, owned by F. w.
Aver of this city, came off the marine rail
way at high tide, Saturday. She has been
having some changes made with the prOpel-
Ter. The steam yacht Aria, Hon. E. H.
Blake's new craft, is still on the railway, be-
ing painted.-Bangor Commercial.
The sloop yacht Carlin, owned by Prof.
McVane of Harvard College, was in Port
land harbOr last week. This was originally
a fishing boat, built in Brooksville, but was
comfortable yacht on which Prof. McVane
and family spend the summer vacation.
The yacht Mallard, owned by Charles r.
Coombs and sailed by Fitz w. Patterson of
this city, sailed last Thursday for Portland,
where she was joined by party of young
men for three weeks cruise on the coast
of Maine. Another party has chartered
the yacht for two weeks, at the end of the
present cruise The Mallard is safe and
comfortable cruiser, and the only available
craft of that description now at this port.
A lady of this city who has been on board
the finest yachts owned in New York says
that lur. Blake's new steam yacht Aria
eclipses them all in the elegance of her ap-
pointments. The Aria recently took Bel
fast party to Bar Harbor and they had a
most delightful trip. The yacht left here
at 11.3O a. m., ran up Somes' Sound and
then landed the party at Bar Harbor, where
some time was spent in visiting and sight
seeing, and at 10 p, m. they were again in
Belfast,

Revival of the Packet Trade.

On Thursday the schooner Stony Brook
arrived in Bangor with about 400 pack ag es
of molasses, the first cargo of the kind that
has been received here in years. This ship
ping of molasses to Bangor by vessel results
from an increase in rates on the Maine
Central r. r. cargo of vinegar has also
arrived by vessel. and merchants are max.
ing arrangements to bring in large part
of their heavy goods in that way. Up to
20 years ago a good sized fleet of packet
schooners were employed constantly in
bringing heavy groceriers and provisions
from Boston to Bangor, and there is reason
to believe that this commerce by water may
will readily recall the schooners.M NJ. L. Crock

bic S. Oakes and others of the fleet that
tied up at the old packet wharf at the foot
of Broad street, and many also will recall
how busy was that famous old time steve
dore, William Ordway, in discharging their
cargoes. Some of the vessels were very
fast sailers, the NJ. L. Crockett having a
record, if we remember rightly, of 90 1-2
hours from Boston wharf to Odoms ledge.

BANGOR OPENING UP.


The Drouth Broken in the Queen City.
BANGOR, July %. After having been
tightly closed since July /, two of the
most pretentiouS saloons in the city have
resumed business, and report is that several
others, and at least one large wholesale
house, will follow. The fact that these two
saloons have been opened after they were
presumed to be closed until the August
term of court, is expected to have "a bracing
up effect on the more timid dealers, and be-
fore the end of the week it is expected that
there will be many more places running.
The opening of these places has given rise
to the rumor that some one has had ''a
straight tip from the inside" that it will be
'sall right and that there will be no jail
sentences this term, or in other words that
the supreme court will recede from its
threat to impose Jail sentences upon those
who should appear before the Penobscot
county bar again to answer to an indict-
ment to violating the liquor law. Some of
the hotels have taken peculiar course.
While they have closed the bars, they are
running "war-time" bars in some secluded
portion of the house, with a continual per-
formance of nights and Sundays One
hotel only is running the bar wide open as
usual.

poets for Building the Road.
Mr.. A. w. Haywood, the engineer from
the office of Mr. W. b. Getchell, Augusta,
who has been making what is called a ire
commissioner of an electrical railway
route from Camden to Belfast, has finished
this work and made his report. lie has
gone over the grounds very carefully, and
taken many measurements and made de-
tailed notes and descriptions of the topog-
raphy, showing tne practic tble courses on
which road might be built. When he had
completed this general observation, and
made report, Mr.. Getchell came down and
went over the route with him, walking the
entire distance. Mr. Getche( then directed
Mr.. Haywood to go ON and make prellml-
nary survey, the result of which will enable
the parties interested to determine the
most desirable route and get an approx
mate idea of the relative expense. MIR.
Haywood has charge of this survey, and be
gan work on Wednesday. Mr.. Sidney NJ.
Bird, graduate of the Rockland High
school, class of 'O3, goes with him as chain
man. From the energy with which the OBJ
servation and survey of the route are being
pushed, we should Judge that the project OF
building an electric road from Camden to
Belfast is being very seriously considered
by the capitalists who control the Augusta
and Rockland systems, as a part Of the
plan to ultimately unite those systems

Held Court in a Barn.

There was Il novelty in a legal proceeding
in the town of China, July 10th. 1t was a
case of violation of the quarantine law, and
the respondent was George Norton. He
lives near what is known as Dirigo Corner.
On the 9th of the present month, Norton
was suspected of being affected by scarlet
fever. Neighbors reported that he paid little
attention to the quarantine. He was arrest
ed Monday by Deputy Sheriff Willis Pink
ham and taken before Trial Justice Theron
was examined by Drs. Small and Nelson,
who decided that he either had the disease
in very mild form or did not have it at all.
The court room was Mr.. Does barn, and
the desk from which justice was dispensed
was few punches of shingles. But despite
the lack of legal paraphernalia justice was
not impeded, and fine of $40 was imposed.
The mittimus was, however, suspended
