The Drowning Accidents.

Waterville Mail)
There Is already a tremendously
long isl OF drowning accidents in
Maine this summer and the season is
not much more than half over. A few
OF these accidents have resulted from
stress OF bad weather, but by far the
greater number have been caused by
the failure of those who lost their lives
TO remember that there is always dam
ger IN venturing beyond ones depth,
ana mat canoe or a small boat must
be carefully handled II its occupants
do not care 10 take long chances of be-
ing tipped out Of it. There Is little
danger In summer sports If those who
enjoy them keep in mind that there Is
danger in them, if some measure Of
care and prudence is not used. 1t is
easy TO do ones swimming where seiZ-
ure by cramps would occasion the
swimmer little risk, and even a small
boat can be SO handled as to subject
occupants to little danger. But it is
very easy, particularly for the young.
to forget all else but the joy of the
sport in which they are indulging.

The good word come from Port.
land. Ore. that the Lewis and CLARK
exposition Is proving a financial sue
cess. 1t is certainly to be hoped that
this is true. for we have had too many
financial failures among our great ex-
positions, and 1t will be a great victory
for the hustling Northwest IL its ex-
position proves an exception to the
general rule. 1t is all the more re-
markable since It comes close on the
heels of the Worlds fair which was
more or less a failure. OF course. nc
great crowds from the East are TAX

who do go are amply repaid and II
would be splendid thing for us if
many more could put in a week or two
there.

The souvenir postal card business has
reached great proportions in the past
year or two. but Secretary Cortelyou
takes a step which Is calculated to
check this craze, in certain directions
at least. BY his recent orders a ban is
placed upon such cards which bear
offensive or rrofane expressions, and
pictures which while not actually
obscene are still decidedly racy. Many
cards, particularly those published at
summer resorts are of this nature.
while many OF them are sent from for
eign countries which are much worse
than any manufactured and used in
this country. The action taken by
Postmaster General Cortely0u is COM
mendable, AMI people who have been
bored and insulted by receiving postal
cards mailed by travelling friends will
feel like extending him a vote of
thanks. In the meantime the legih-
mate souvenir postal card business will
profit by this ruling.

occurred recently in the town of Ell
lot where at his old home a former well
known resident appeared after an alb
sence of rs years during which his
whereabouts We're entirely unknown.
Joseph Stacy suddenly left his Eliot
home one day 26 years ago and so far
as members of his family were con-
cerned they continued to remain in
complete ignorance of his whereabouts
during this long period. The destina-
ton Of Mr.. Stacy appears to have been
California because it was from that
state that he returned to his old home
in Eliot the week before last. In fail
ing health he had come home ito
die he said, but neither he nor his
family had thought his end so near.
He failed rapidly, however, after his
arrival and died within a week.

WEBER FOUND GUILTY.
Auburn, California, Man Convicted OF
Killing His Mother.

Auburn, California, Man Convicted OF
Killing His Mother.
Auburn, Cal, Feb. 27.-Adolph Web
err was today convicted OF murder IN
the first degree, for the killing of his
mother. The jury was out fifteen
hours.
Adolph Weber, who is only 20 years
Old, was tried for the murder OF his
mother, but is also accused of killing
his father, sister and brother, and of
burning the family residence. The
tragedy occurred November 10, 1904,
at Auburn, the county seat of Placer
county. On that day, soon after Adolf
phi left his home, it was destroyed by
fire, and the other four members of
the family persisted. An examination
of the bodies taken from the ruins of
the house proved that the mother,
father and daughter had been shot,
while the dead boy had been struck
on the head with some blunt instru-
ment.
Adolph arrived at the fire before ii
was extinguished, and threw into the
flames bundle found to contain his
blood-stained trousers, which a few
minutes before he had exchanged for
a new pair. Circumst,' Ilial evidence
led to his arrest. He is the sole heir
to the estate, which is quite valuable
Eminent counsel were engaged in
his defense, while the attorney-gen-
eral of the state conducted the pros.
ecution. The trial occupied twenty
eight days, during which the prisone'
maintained his composure to re

CRIMINAL ASSAULT.

Sensational Case Develops at the
Town Of Ovando.
Ovando. Mont, Feb. PA sensa-
tiOnal arrest was made at this place
today when Arthur ID. Goodfellow,
we'll known proprietor of saloon
here, was taken into custody charged
with attempt to commit assault Oh
Mabel Bewell, 15-year-old girl. Good
fellow is Sc years of age and is mar
ried. The girl has been living with
his family for some time, and she al
leges that he attempted the assaul,
in his house here but she successfully
resisted his advances.
She was shortly afterward sent to
Missoula to school, and she alleges
that. Goodfellow went to Missoula in
November and on pretense of taking
her to the teacher took her to a room
in a block and accomplished his pur-
pose, afterwards taking her to Butte.
where the Offcnse was repeated. The
girl states that she was threatened i'll
to silence. She also states that Good
fellows wife and Vesta GoodfellOw,
his daughter-in-law, have been &C.
quainted with the facts for some time
and have also inundated her, even
going SO far as to advise her to COM
nit suicide, and putting poison with
in her reach and advising her to take
it.
The girl tells heartrending story.
The accused was taken into court and
took the statutory time to plead and
the hearing was set for o'clock to-
morrow.
A more serious complaint will b.
filed against GoodfellOw in MissOula
where, it is alleged, the ruin of th1
girl was accomplished.
