BOYS LEAVE HOME.
David Herd and Freeman Simpson
Trying Another Life.

Uncomfortable rumors have been
afloat in the little town Of Winslow con-
corning the disappearance of two boys,
David Herd, aged Is. n son OF Mr.. and
Mrs. Samuel Herd, and Freeman Simp-
son, age Is, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred
Simpson.
The boys have been boon companions
since they have known each other and
when, last Monday night, neither Of
them put in an appearance at their
homes, uneasy misgivings were felt by
their parents over certain words which
they were known to have dropped re-
garding plans for the future. One week
has elapsed and the whereabouts Of the
young men are still unknown. The boys
have been well behaved and fndustrt-
GUS. both being in the employ OF the
Hollinsworth & Whitney Co. for sew
eral years. It appears. in the light OF
later discoveries that Simpson had
drawn from the bank sum Of money
amounting nearly TO $500 which he had
been saving, perhaps for his present
travels. 4.
There is not much doubt in the minds
OF those who have known the boys in
the past that they will show up. some

FISHING STORIES.
A Long-lived Trout-catches Made at
Great and Other Ponds.

Something unique in the way of fish
ermeE's trophies was brought into the
city. Saturday morning, by Captain
Frank JOrdon of the steamer Frolic,
from the waters of Belgrade lakes.
This was a square-tailed trout, weigh
ing 412 pounds. which was caught by
the captain while trolling from his
steamer during the early morning. The
fish was not only a large one and beau
tifully marked. but was brought to the
city alive. The strangest thing. in the
minds of the most of those who saw
it was that it was not caught in Snow
pond, the famous locality from which
nearly all of the fishes and especially
of the fish stories have come since the
ice left the inland waters. few weeks
ago to excite the sporting blood of the
city. The fish. on being caught imme-
diately Topped into the Frolic's ice box
and was on exhibition in Hawker's
drug store for several hours during the
afternoon. after which. tired of be-
ing admired. he turned over on his
back and died.
Interesting reports of the Belgrade
fishing are now being brought into the
city For instance: Last Thursday, APP
proXimately % goOd-siZed trout. weigh
ing from . TO pounds. were taken out
Of Great pond according to the cap
tains statement. H. Z. Capin Of New
York. one of the guests at 1.-THE Bel
grade" is said to have taken good
sized trout amounting to the limit in
pounds allowed for one days work.
while Mr.. Jordon hooked one that
weighed pounds, 2 ounces. few days
previously. Thus far. comparatively
few fishermen have reached these wa
tiers. from the nearby towns, as other
bodies of water are more conveniently
reached The most of the Belgrade fish
ermen hail from New York and Phila-
delphia.

SKOWHEGAN HIGH.
Mrs. Julia A, Pease,

People of this city are learning with
sorrow of the death of Mrs. Julia A.
Pease, the wife of the late Elias Pease.
which. occurred at her home on the
River road at $50 o'clock, Saturday
morning. Mrs. Pease passed from this
life under circumstances which seem
peculiarly sad. One week ago last Sat-
urday, she was stricken with paraly-
sis. which, although the first which
she had ever experienced. left her APP
parently unconscious until the hour OF
her death. During that time her two
surviving children were almost con-
stantly at her side. but were not able
to detect any signs of recognition. Mrs.
Pease lived to the advanced age Of s.
years and 3 months. and was the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. William
Ihilbrick. formerly Of Oakland. She
was the last surviving member Of
family of five children. Two SONS
Frank w. and Albert f. Pease survive
her. The funeral will be held from the
home at o'clock Tuesday afternoon.
following which the remains will be
accompanied to Bangor for interment
in the family lot in that city.

Railway Congress An
nounces Conclusions.
The Rates Should Be Based
on Commercial Principles Z.
Combined With Common Sense, Consider
ing All the Conditions.

Washington. May lathe conclusions
adopted by the International Railway
Congress which closed its seventh ses-
sion here, yesterday, were officially an
nOunced. today. The most interesting Of
the conclusions relates to railway rates.
which. after a prolonged discussion in
which every country in which railways
arc operated. are represented. the Con-
gress unanimously expressed it's con-
ciusiOns as follows:
Tariffs should be based on CONNER
cial principle, taking into account the
special conditions bearing upon the
commercial value of the services rem
dered. With the reservation that rates
shall be charged without arbitrary dis
elimination to all shippers alike under
like conditions, the making of rates
should as far as possible have all the
elasticity necessary to permit the de-
veloprent Of the traffic ard to produce
the greatest results to the public and
to the railroads themselves
These conclusions were ratified at the
close of the session after President
R"osevelts speech had been a topic of
discussion and two days after Secretary
Tafts address on freight rates at the
banquet of the Congress.
The Congress expresses the wish
that the present tendency of legisla-
ton to establish more liberal regula-
lions for lines with small traffic, either
under the form of subsidies, relaxation
Of requirements or other methods of
assistance. and light trains may become
more general and that the efforts of the
arrangements to equip their light traf-
fic lines with more economical organiza-
ton, which promises to give remarkable
rtsults, be continued"
The movement toward the electrifica-
ton of certain American railways lends
additional interest to the consideration
by the delegates of auto motors. Thu
Congress declares hat exnel iments with
this class of vehicles should be con-
tinucd.
