SNAPSHOT Anglers LEHR.
Objects to Being Photographed, and
Tries to Seize Camera.

Newport. r. l., July 23.-Harry s.
Lehr created little commotion in
front of the Newport Casino in an at
tempt to get a camera from a news
paper artist who had Just taken a
snapshot Of him. He was unsuccess-
full in his attempt, and even an ap-
peal to the police gave him little salts
faction. This is not the first time that
Mr.. Lehr has objected to having his
picture taken. There have been many
stormy scenes in the past and threats
to smash the camera.
Mr.. and Mrs. Craig iBiddae were
coming up the avenue in thei. auto
mobile. Mr.. Lehr was with them.
They alighted just below the Casino,
and the three walked up to the en-
trance. On approaching the entrance
the photographer aimed the camera
at the trio and pressed the button. NJ.
Lehr saw this in time to raise bum
die which he was carrying in front of
his face. Then he made for the pro-
tographer with the remark. Il guess
you have got to give me that cam
era"
The reply was. Il guess not" See
ing that it was useless to argue with
the man. Mr.. Lehr sought the police
man stationed in front of the Casino,
and while making the complaint t,
him the photographer took his picture.
The policeman informed him that he
was powerless to act in the matter:
that 1t was no crime. and Mr. I.ehr
then sent for the Chief Of Police. He
also said there was no law to pre-
vent such business.

PLEASANT OUTING.

Return from Auto Trip on Coast.

Travel stained and weary. but none
the less happy and satisfied with their
IL days touring and camping trip. w.
&. Stebbins and DR.. G. E. HathOrne ar
rived in town. Sunday evening. having
made the run from Bangor in the af-
ternoon. They report a very pleasant
trip, fairly good roads-for Maine roads
and few storms Of sufficient conse-
uuence to give any serious trouble.
Leaving home, Wednesday morning
the 10Th. the tourists drove to Small
Point where two days were pleasantly
passed. Running over to BoOthbay,
another two days flew quickly. Visit
ing Squirrel Island, Sunday, many Au-
gusta acquaintances were met. From
Boothbay the trip was continued along
the coast to Owls Head. where camp
was pitched on the government grounds
lear the lighthouse, than which a more
picturesque spot would be hard to find.
The beauties Of Rockland harbOr
were made unusually interesting by the
presence of the United States battle
ships, and some good views were
brought home of the surroundings. Up
the Penobscot to Bangor was a run
that could not be otherwise than de-
lightful, and after a visit there the
course was mapped for home, which,
was reached about $50 P. NJ.
Many incidents of the trip will be
long remembered. One in particular
stands out in bold relief. when the
tourists pitched their tent hurriedly one
evening in pasture to escape .
threatening shower. The rain came
all right. but after it a worse deluge,
in the form of mosquitoes, which the
doctor AYERS were as big as hen hawks.
Another experience which was in
teresting. especially to the automobile
driver. was the climbing of a celebrated
hill in Waldoboro. The hill is at least
a mile in length. and steep at that, but
the single cylinder car climbed it with
out a balk. and that. too. with an out
fit weighing altogether nearly a ton.

carried. including shelter tent. sleeping
bags and cooking utensils. Extra tires
and full supply of repairs to be used

come. Two good cameras were fire.
