Dear SirS: In the character only of
a citizen of the town of Brighton, aud
for the sake of the good name Of the
village of Island Pond, beg to call
your attention to public nuisance,
which has constantly been inflicted upon
our respectable citizens every summer,
and is already begun again this year.
| mean the congregation of men, every
evening and large part of the day on
Sundays, on the south west corner of
Cross street and the public square,
commonly known as Clarke's Corner,
the frequent use of profane and indecent
language when ladies are passing, and
the constant splitting of tobacco juice on
the sidewalk, contrary to law, as well as
public health and decency. | earnestly
ask that the above nuisance be abated
Immediately.
The selectmen received from towns
man the foregoing protest, and at once
took action to prevent a continuance OF

One of the series of fine concerts
which Mr.. W. X. Chapman has been
giving throughout the state of Maine
will he presented in our town in the
opera house Tuesday evening June 49,
These concerts are under the manage
meut of Mr.. W. 5. Wight. whose ability
in that direction is so well known. We

the very best to be procured.
There will be a soprano soloist. Miss
Virginia Root. of New York, Mr.. Frank
Kendrie, OF Ocean Park, violiuist, and a
tenor, Mr.. Thomas Henderson of Port.
land
Miss Root, the soprano, has an
exceptionally fine dramatic soprano
voice. She has met with the greatest
success wherever she has sung, and
takes her audience by storm. She is
considered by critics to be the best new
soprano of the season in New York, and
Mr.. Chapman considers himself very
fortunate in securing her for this tour.
Mr.. kendrie the violinist, is pupi
| of Mr.. krattts, of Boston. His playing
is considered by many to be most
remarkable. He is certainly a young
man, with II future and bids fair tr
become the best violinist in New
England.
Mr.. Thomas Henderson, is by far the
best tenor in Portland. He always
sings well and ne is great favorit
with audiences everywhere. He cannot
fail to please every one, and he should
receive from this town a warm recep
ton on his appearance here Tuesday
night June l3. Mr.. Chapman will give

a most favorable impression; we knew

terminated the exercises. The veterans
and their families and few invited
guests then adjourned to Grand Army

served 10y the W, Il. G. After dinner
the drum corps gave several patriotic

various societies to whom the season is
so specially devoted.

The Cardinals had Gildea on the firing
line and he twirled a mastery up hill

siderable luck, securing safe hits on

the work of the Cardinals in the field

DELAY TRIAL TO HOLD
DEBATE ON "D0GOLOGY''
FOX TERRIER ACCUSED OF BEING
VICIOUS
Samuel E. Burk and G. r. Cromer
Appear In Court Because cromer's
Canine Bit Burk's Son-Dispute
as to Weight of "Toeo"

For a few moments Police Judge
Austin, Prosecuting Attorney George
Beebe and the trial Of Samuel L.
Burk faded into insignificance while a
hot discussion over dogs and dogology
was carried on. The case was brought
by C. F. Croner of 1909 New Hamp-
shire street, secretary of the Farmers
Mutual Life insurance company, on
the part of his son Fred, who claimed
that fox terrier belonging to Mr.
Hanks, a prominent dentist, had Bit
ten him August 2.
Your honor" said Burk, 'in the
kindest time of Togo's existence he
appears fierce simply because his
lower jaw protrudes, showing his
teeth"
Cromer, interrupting: THAT may all
be but my son is not the only one that
has been bitten by the dog. The dog
is big one and weighs at least fifty
pounds; he is very dangerous
Burk apparently ignoring Comer:T
have this to say, your honor, the dog is
a small one and tips the scales at
twenty-five pounds"
Conner: 1.-The dog snaps at peoples
heels when they pass by If L thought
could have adjusted the case would
not have brought it into court"
Burk (for the first time addressing
the PLAINTIFF: "Then, sir, I am very
sorry that you and l did not confer
for 1 do not believe the dog to be
vicious. L have been brought up
among dogs and never saw one that
was cross to me-"
Cromer: $50 was 1 and when 1 had
anything to do with a good dog he
would not trouble me-
The court interrupted the dialogue
and ordered the case to proceed. Upon
the promise of Burk to send the dog
out of town he was given the mini
mum fine. 500.
