| CAUGHT IN THE SHAFTING. A serious
accident occurred in Leonard & Barrows'
shoe factory about O'Clock last Tuesday
morning. Kingsbury Pierce, who is EN-.
ployed by Fred Sylvester as an assistant at
the heel attaching machine, in some way
| got his clothes caught and was pulled over
the shaft and carried up to the ceiling. Be-
tween the ceiling and the floor beam he
Z! was cut down, but not before he had re-
ceived severe cut about three inches long
on the back of his head, near the base of
his brain, cODtusions about the face and
hands, and had the flesh of his left hand
torn. He did not faint even while suffer
ing so severely, and his pluck and GOODNESS
won the admiration of all as he gave drec-
tions to his rescuers as to where to cut his
clothing to relieve him. He was taken i'm
mediately to the Waldo County Hospital
under the care of Drs. johnson, Tapley
and Small. DIR. E. d. Tapley, the attending
physician, reported Wednesday afternoon
that his condition was very salts
factory. There were no internal III iuries
and complete recovery is expected.
The victim of the accident is about
fourteen years old, and is the son of Stephen
! Pierce, who is at present in Colorado. His
mother and sisters are here and have the
general sympathy of the public. The news
OF the accident spread rapidly over the fac
tory and naturally caused great excitement,
many supposing that the boy had been kill
ed. In one room five women tainted away,
and others were hysterical.
BIG GAME. Our local hunters have been
unusually lucky this season, which indi-
Gates one of three things: good mark sman-
ship, abundance of game, or well-lned
pocket boOks-fOr the guides. Be that as
1t may the game has been brought home
and with the fortunate few venison steaks
have been no rarity, while some will have
a taste of moose meat. This is more like
beef than venison, and in Nova Scotia,
where moose abound, the nose, or "mouttle, -
as it is called there, is considered great
delicacy and is made into soup. Maine is
the only eastern State in which moose are
found, and they are we'll protected by law.
The open time is only from Oct. 18th to
Dec. 1st, and but one bull moose is allowed
to hunter. To kill COW or calf moose
entails a fine of $1,000 or four months i'm
prisonment. Only about 200 moose are kill
ed in Maine in season, while nearly 4,OOC
deer are killed annually. A writer in the
Brooklyn Eagle says: "T0 kill deer re-
quires talent, but to slay moose necessi-
tates positive genius, aided by much cold
cash." The writer then goes on to say that
Maine makes moose hunting as expensive
as it can, and mentions the railroad fare,
the license OF $15, and intimates that the
guide has to be s'tipped,'' and that with a
party Of hunters ''the highest bidder gets
the moose" This of course does not apply
to local hunters, and merely serves as an
introduction to the moose brought home by
Charles P. Hazeltine and placed on exhi-
bition last Saturday night at Fogg & Browns
market. 1t is a fine specimen and has at
tracted much attention. Its estimated weigh
is between 800 and 900 pounds, but moose
have been killed weighing from 1,10O to
1000 pounds. Messrs Hazeltine, r. F. Dun
ton and Judge George E. johnson returned
Saturday night from Stacyville, Judge John
son having joined the others the second
week of their stay. Before his arrival they
had shot three deer but the second week
the only game secured was the moose, shot
by Mr.. Hazeltne. Judge johnson had one
