Charles |. Tucker Pro-
tests His Innocence.
Pleads Not Guilty to Murder of
Miss Mabel Page.
No Day Yet Set for the Beginning of
TriaI-Prisoner Calm Durina Ar.
raignmcnt Though His Face Wore
Slightly Troubled Expression.

Cambridge. Mass, June. 16.-Charles
l.. Tucker, charged with the murder of
Miss Mabel Page at Weston. March 81.
pleaded not guilty when arraigned in
the MiddleseX county superior court.
Thursday. No day for trial was named.
The proceedings were held before
Judge Lawton. During the arraignment
Tucker was calm, though his face wore
slightly troubled expression. His con-
finement in Jail had told upon his gen.
eral appearance. His face was pale and
his lips white.
1t was shortly before go o'clock
when Tucker arrived in the court room
from the Jail just across the street. He
was handcuffed to two deputy sheriffs.
District Attorney Sanderson briefly re-
called that an Indictment alleging
murder had been found by the grand
jury against Charles l.. Tucker and
asked that he be arraigned.
Clerk of Court Ambrose then read the
indictment which affirmed that Tucker
had stabbed Miss Page with knife
and that he "Gid kill and murder" her.
While the declaration was being read
Tucker was standing with his right
arm unllIteu. Inc young man stood
erect and his arm never wavered. At
the end he said in clear tones: Not
guilty"
Judge Lawton asked the defendant
if he had counsel and the latter ans
wered that he had. At this point James
III. Valley. the lawyer who represented
Tucker in the district court of Wal
Thanh, had 4 conversation with his
client and afterward Tucker told the
court that he was without counsel. At
ter several other questions, relating to
his ability to employ counsel the de-
PENDANT finally declared that he could
not conveniently procure the means to
retain counsel. Thereupon the court an
nounced that counsel would later be
assigned. Then Tucker was taken back
to Jail.

WATERVILLE.
THE ALL-MAINE TEAM.
A World beating Aggregation Picked
Out by Bangor Expert.

The Bangor News, Thursday morn
ing, printed the names, records, and
pictures of the Maine college mon who
by their playing in the baseball games
OF the past season have made them
selves eligible to a place on the ALL
Maine college baseball team. The News
writer is an authority on baseball and
his selections for place on the ALL
Maine team seems to meet with gener-
al approval with those who have fol-
lowed college baseball this season. He
picks John Coombs of Colby for pitch
er, Il choice which cannot be bettered,
and he has Coombs' backstoH Bill
CoWng, in the same position on the
All-Maine Without doubt this is the
strongest college battery seen in the
State for a long time.
For the position of'first base he has
Kendall of Bates. who takes preference
over Collins of Maine because of his
batting.
Another Bates man. Wood, is on the
second bag. Good secondsbasemen have
been scarce this spring, and Wood
seems to be the best of thc lot.
On the third corner is Craig of Col
by, who seems to lead the other third
basemen.
For the position of shOrtstop there
is Zen Larrabee of Maine, who has
played a great game the past season.
Larrabee is an old player and knows
the game thoroughly and he deserves
the place.
Clark of Bowdoin who is in the left
garden is one of the best fielders seen
among the colleges for some yeats and
he deserves his position on the ALL
Maine.
The News man picks Mitchell of
Maine for the position of center field
in preference to Leighton of Colby
because of his better stick work. This
choice seems all right. but the News
man has been unable to find a man for
right field. There is little to choose be-
tween Mitchell and Leighton, the lat
ter having n perfect fielding record
and the only difference being the Maine
captains work with the stick.
1t would strengthen the team to put
Mitchell i'm right field where he played
the greater part of last season, and
put Leighton in his old position in
center. This would make a pretty
strong aegregation.
This gives Colby four men on the
ll-Maine, Maine two Bates, and Bow
doin one.
