Premiums Awarded to Success

Two Racing Events---Rowena Wilkes and
Bessie Besure the Winners.

Bangor Me-. Sept. 1.-iSpeciaD.-The
fair was a fitting close to a most sue
cessful season. Though the day was
somewhat hazy it was more comfort
able on the grounds than if the sun
had been shining brightly. The at
tendance was of course not as large as
on the two preceding days, but the
crowd was of fair propor tions and kept
up well to the grande finale of the
evening fireworks.
Fridays crowd was notceably d more
leisUrely one. strolling about the
grounds in Il quiet fashion, and though
the side show barkers did their worst
exhorting their audiences to Hurry.
Hurry" the spectators smiled in
diligently and took their cwn time.
Many picnic parties were observed
having driven for the fair, enjoying
their basket lunch, seated on the grass
of the park, and making the most of
their days outing.
The judging of the livestock was
completed, in the forenoon. and one eX-
hibitor remarked that he had made
nine sales as a result of the trip to the
fair. so that he was well satisfied
Releases were issued to the stock eX
ilbitors. and in the afternoon, several
began to move, getting on the way
home or to other fairs which follow in
close succession.
The racing of the afternoon brought
a good crowd to the grardstand and as
usual the fences arOun1 the track were
crowded with interested spectators.
Tho pony racing. expert lariat throwing
and fancy rifle work of the Wild West
aggregation was greeted with the
cheers of the multitude and the band
music during the stage performances
gave the proper finish 10 the program.
The drawing card of the evenings
show, the fireworks, again proved :,
strong attraction, and many were heard
to make expressions with the vaude-
VILE performance, wishing that the
brilliant display would begin. The
other features received their share of
attention. however, the clever slack
wire performer, and the clog dancing of
the Southern Ministries, receiving
hearty applause.
The fireworks We're CT the same ma
ture as on the preceding evenings.
The bombs exploding into myriad stars
high in the air. the fiery Serpcnts, the
numerous So pieces Of marvellous de-
sign. all went to make up an enter
tainment of the highest order.

their guns would have to be sent to a repair shop before they could be used again.
 Begue's restaurant near. the French market, a show place for all strangers who come to New Orleans, was for many weeks of the downtown eptdeni- ic. surrounded by yellow fever. Some of the Northern and Eastern papers have printed stories announcing BeEue as one of those whom the fever car ried off. M. Begue has asked the As sociated Press to make denial of the announcement of his death.
 An indignation meeting of the ctu- gems and business men of Natchitoches, La, was held today to denounce charges that have appeared in the press to the effect that the people and authorities for several weeks sup pressed the existence of yellow fever in the parish. Strong resolutions were adopted. It was pointed out that in the town of Natchitoches. where the State Normal School is located, there has been no fever. There has, howev- CT, been a nest of yellow fever eases at Bayou Natchez. several miles from the town, but 1t Is declared that until last Saturday neither the doctors nor the Parish officials had the slightest idea that these were other than ordi- nary fever. Many persons have left the Normal School and gone to other Parishes, the residents of which have been much exercised since the discov- cry that Natchitoches was infected

 Washington, Sept. 23.-An account was given today by the Naval Bureau of Ordnance of an interesting test con- ducted yesterday at the naval proving grounds at Indian Head. in continua- tion of the series of experiments begun last March to determine the resisting power of the Tennessee class of arm ored cruisers under the attack of pro- jectiles loaded with various kinds of explosives. The account says:
 '"The six and eight-inch guns were used in the test, the striking velocity of the projectiles being those corre- spending to ranges from S,000 to 5000 yards. The target was structure built in exact imitation of the side of the Tennessee, with all decks and bulk heads complete. The results were on the whole extremely satisfactory as re- gards the design of the ship. The dam age done by the bursting shells was localized within the compartment where the explosion took place, and while the damage to both personnel and ma teriaI within the compartment would undoubtedly have been very great, the ship as a whole would have been intact at the conclusion of the firing. As a final test a 12-inch shell was exploded within a closed compartment just above the armored deck. The local effect of this was considerable, but the armored decks was not penetrated.

 Berlin. Sept. 22.--Several distressing incidents of ehildren's suicides have occurred since the autumn school term began. This has brought on a dts cussion of the conditions Of school and home life and endeavors are being made to trace the causes of the tr- creasfng feeblenasg of the desire for life which. 1t Is affirmed. the il, 900 sui- cidaa Of 190a indicate. The atatisties of children's self murder lin AAxony show that although only seven persons under i4 committed suicide h Ig01- 1909, the number ross to sw6nty-one in l9e3s The suicides or adults In Sax ony increased in the same time from 1,asS to 1s427.
 by economic reasons. which make 1t harder to get subsistence, darken life generally and throw shadows over the lives of the children. The clerical view is that the absence of faith. the increase of irreligion and the growth of sensual materialism explain the weakening desire for life. and that a revival of spiritual aims would lessen suicide by increasing the serenity of living. Critics of tue school systems assert that children are forced too much; that they are oyerestlmated and are given tasks which are impossible of accomplishment for those slightly below the standard of capacity. and that punishments, the fear of reproofs and injury to self-pride push the child towards suicide.

"Republican triumph in ohio will

"Republican triumph in Ohio will mean the endorsement of the adfninis- tration of President Roosevelt It will show that the people are satisfied not only with the soundness of the great policies of the Republican Party, but that they approve the able and suc- cessful manner in which the affairs of the nation are administered by him."
 Governor Myron .Herrick spoke at considerable length. dwelling carefully on State issues. He said in part:
 "The cry of bossism Is raised at this time by the Democratic Party and 1t sallies in the hope that they may be able to deceive the people and blind them in the real issues in this cam paign. This trick is as old as the op- position party itself. The leaders of the Anti-saioon League are bending every effort to secure my defeat for personal reasons alone. Heretofore the Anti-saloon League leaders were com tent to control the Legislature. but two years ago they set out to get the balance of power in the politics of the State
 "The Democratic Party Is simply try ing to get into power. That is the whole story If the Republican ticket Is defeated in this election, 1t will not be attributed to local or State issues. Our enemies will give 1t all the na- tional significance they can and upon a victory this fall, they will build their hopes of Democratic delegation from the State of Ohio in the Congress of the United Statse next year.
 This is not all; they are looking further than that. They are building their hopes upon the Senate of the United States. They say if we can win in Ohio this fall. we will then be able to control the next legislature and elect the next United States Senator Will the Republicans of Ohio permit this to be done7
 Never before has the Republican party of Ohio been SO ready and so eager 10 meet the people as 1t Is in this campaign. Every device known to political tricksters has been used to divide the Republican army. but as tho days go by and the time of battle draws near. our ranks are closing up and we are getting ready to so forward in defense of a common cause and against a common enemy. confidently expecting an old time Republican vic- tAry at the polls"
 Senator J. B. Foraker closed the speaking program of the afternoon.

An Embarrassinx Question Is Pat to

An Embarrassinw Question Is Pat to yohn A. Mccall. New York, Sept. 22SS.--In an open let ter to President Mccall of the New York Life Insurance Go. Franklin Leonard. defeated candidate for Con- Kress In the Seventh District of this city, today asked Mr. Mccall how much had been used to defeat him. Mir. Leonard's letter was prompted by Pres ident McCalTs statement before the legislative committee that he had or- dered a contribution of about $4s.oo0 to the Republican national campaign fund in 1904. The letter follows: "Mr. John A. Mccall. President New York Life Insurance CO, New York
 City:
 Dear sir--Last year I held q policy amounting to s2e,oo0 In the New York Life Insurance Company and paid ths yearly premium. At the same time 1 was nominated for Congress by the Democratic party in the Seventh Dis trfct. This was a close and doubtful District and you will doubtless admit that large sums from the Republican district. Personally, am satisfied that those funds helped materially to bring about nay defeat.
 q would particularly like to know how much of my money paid to your company in trust for my little family after my death, together with the funds of more than 2s.00o other Demo- crats and friends who east their votes for me in the Seventh District, was used to bring about my defeat and de- feat the will of the voters
 T venture the opinion that even my Republican opponents would hardly ad- vocate the use of my funds and the funds of thousands of other policy holders in this matter.
 Yours truly.

 Albany, Ga. Sept. 23.-Reports re- ceived from Newton state that sensa- tional developments In the Milner mur- der case have occurred. A special says from that place say:
 On yesterday Clinton Milner, tho young man who is in jail charged with killing his father. Rolla Milner. sent for several citizens of the town and made a full and complete statement of how the killing occurred and by whom the crime was committed. He said that his mother and father were quar- reIing over a dog when his mother seized the gun and shot his father. He said that his mother got him to tell the story about his shooting his father while asleep. They then planned for him to pretend to be crazy in order to cover up the crime.
 In making his confession young Mill ner said that he had stood tho strain as long as he could and that he would tell the truth if it killed him. As the result of hts confession the authorities have sent over and had Mrs Milner ar rested and lodged in jail.

Give Up Isle of Pines.
 Washington. Sept. 3.--tSpecial. )-- Captain Joseph L. Peary of Nashville | sback in washinhton from q trip to the Isle of Pines, West Indies, where he and his brother, Samuel H. Pearcy. formerly of Nashville. with many other Americans, are largely interested in land holdings. Captain Pearce says that three-fourths of the population is now American and violently opposed to the ratification of the treaty pending before the Senate which carries cession of the Island to Cuba. The American inhabitants will try to have the treaty withdrawn. and, falling in this, will send a deputation to Washington to present their case to the Senate throush the proper committees.
 Senators Carmack and oMrgan of the Democrats anu cuilom and Penerose of the Republicans have given consider able attention to this question. It Is possible that it's discussion will pro- yoke friction between Cuba and the United States, as the Cuban Govern ment has shown itself extremely averse to any proposition looking to the re- finquishment of the island.
