DEGENERATES INTO A FARCE
Continued from First Page).

 are disgruntled over their treatment by the referees, and say is no use in fast riding or attempts to gain laps, for
 when they do make a gain some rider falls, and their gain is taken away from them. Most of the men are particular ly ineensed over the treatment of Wal thour, who has eight times practically
 gained back the lap he lost on the first
 day. and on each occasion, Fogler Roots partner, has fallen. Under the rules this has taken away the gain.
 Walthour's last attempt to make up
 his lost lap was at 2:30 this morning, and the chief result was the throwing
 of seven riders and a stoppage of the race for more than an hour. The trou- ble was caused by Fogler, Roots part ner, falling from his wheel as BedelI. of the Walthour- -Bedell team, was mak-
 ing a seemingly successful effort to re- gain the lap which he and his partner are behind. Bedell was three-uuarters of a lap ahead when the spill came.
 The big crowd thought Fogler fell in-
 tentionally, to prevent BedelFs gaining the coveted lap, and rose instantly in
 an uproar, hissing and grooming, cry
 ing fraud" The spectators are dis
 gusted with the farce and do not bes,-

AFTER HIS SCALP
Watervllle Tonsorial Artist Thought Ne Was Done For.

It looked for a time last evening as though there would be trouble in the barber shop of Albert Ciaccio in Waterville, as resident of the 'ville threatened to kill the proprietor of the shop. claiming that he was trying to win his wife's affections.
 It appears that Ciaccio knows a rather attractive young lady who is a friend of the woman whose hus- band was going to do the heavy work. The hubby" got on the wrong track and thought that the barber was paying attention to his wife, and last night appeared at the shop with blood in his eye. It was about I:3O when he came round to do his man. exterminating act and entered the tonsorial parlors and informed Ciac- cio that he would give him a few hours of grace, but would appear later and kill him. The shop lt the time was full and the mans threat much excitement. A g o'clock the man who was eager for vengeance again appeared, but for some reason pr other did not do his little stunt.
 Nevertheless. Ciaccio's friends are much larmed and a warrant may be Issued for the arrest of the fellow who is so eager to put the Waterville barber out of commission.

MAN FOUND DEAD
Nelghbors Reported Him Missing
 and Police Made Search.

Charles D. Rischer was found dead in bed early this morning at his home on Cole street by Police Onicers John Cavanaugh and James T. Fitzgerald. He has been missed from about the place and neishbors reported his ab- sence to the police. A search was made which revealed the fact that the old gentleman had died alone. Medical Examiner Crane thought that the man had been dead for couple of days. Death was due to ex- posture. He was cObbler. but had not worked at 1t for some time past, and managed to maintain himself by doing odd jobs here and there. He had no near relatives. His bat tie with the world and the sad cir cumstances of his death, which 1t would appear occurred on Christmas day, emphasize the logic of Burns's statement, Age and want. o i'll matched pair, show man was made to mourn" The body was removed to Mulville's morgue.
 While the old man was by no means pessimist he was far from being as poor as was thought. His bank book showed a balance of $150 and he also carried some insurance. It is said that he had about $8O or $90 in his pocket { week ago or 50. but what became of that nobody knows. There was some marks on him, one which looked like a fresh wound across his right elbow. This prompted some to think that he was engaged in a struggle with some- body and was choked to death. but the medical examiner didn't think so. It Is quite likely that the sus- picious appearing spots on his arms were old sores.

Another Boston Tragedy.

Boston, Dec 2S.-Bertha L. Clark, who was shot by her husband, Fred l.. Clark. who in turn killed himself an instant later by shooting with a revolver at Roxbury lodging house early to-day, was on the dangerous list at the city hospital this morning. Her condition had not changed since she was brought to the institution and the physicians decided to postpone an operation until later in the day. The Clarks came from Waldo, Me, where Mir Clark had been follower of county fairs for several years, sell ing popcorn. peanuts and notions. A short time ago Mrs Clark left her husband at Waldo to join her par ents in Boston and last Saturday Clark came to this city. Last night they attended a theater and upon their return to their Roxbury lodging house they quarreled, 1t is believed. over returning to Waldo. This, 1t Is thought, led to the shooting.

J. E. SEWELL AT HELM
VIII Be General Manager For Lessees of (. R. &. |. Stock.

To-day ofhcial notices signed by First Vice-President Calvert Town ley of the Consolidated Railroad Co. were posted in the offices of the trol- ley company in this city announcing that all the property of the c. R. and L. Co had been taken in control by the railroad people. The only change in name will be the use of the word "Lessees" in front of the one now in use, 50 that 1t will read Lessees Connecticut Railway and Lighting Co. There Is slight change in the ticket, but not enought to at. tract attention if one didn't look at it closely.
 The notice also announces that the business will be conducted under the supervision of John E. Sewell, who is this day appointed general manager, 70 that while the Philadelphia com pany steps down and out, MT Sewell fs still at the helm. The public will be pleased to hear this. for it has been pretty generally admitted right dAOAS IAdL tu0 IIOuulC WlIu Juc ocI- vice was due to the fact that MT Sew ellis hands were tied and that while he held the position of general man ager he was handicapped by board of directors that wanted everything 1t could get and was not always will ing to give fair return in exchange for what 1t had received. The reten- tion of Mir Sewell Is hailed with de- light by the conductors, motormen and others who know him intimately and have learned to like him. It might not be amiss to add that 1t is a master stroke for the new owners of the surface road, for Mr Sewell is a power in the community and can come nearer converting the city gov ernment to his way of thinking than any other man that ever entered the aldermanic chamber or bowed to the department of public works.

STORES OPEN AT $50
Two Dry Goods Firms Have Tak-
 en Stand in the Matter.

The Curran Dry Goods company is much in favor of the plan suggested Dy the Reid & Hughes company and on and after January the store will open at S:30 in the morning instead or 5, which is now the opening time In the stores above mentioned and in the other dry goods firm of the city. inquiry among the other large dry goods houses showed that these firms are likely for the present at least to continue along the old lines.
 Mir Hughes of Reid & Hughes stat ed that there Is very little business transacted in the morning and as the nrm thought that the help would ap- preciate the half hour in the morn Ing It was decided to make the change. The company does not ex- pect to lose much trade because of the move and is under the impress sion that the clerks will feel more in Che mood to work under the new ar- engagement.
 George s. Bisset of the firm of Grieve. Bisset & Holland, when ask cd if his store would remain under the old schedule. said that 1t would.
 We have given the matter of open Ing at S:S0 very little consideration, but should all the other dry goods stores decide to try the new hour we would fall in line. As 1t is, we are satisfied to let we'll enough alone"
 John H. Selbie of the Miller & Peck company said that he had heard very little about the new opening hour and declared that the store would without doubt still be ready for business at s a. m.
 Philip Curran is greatly in favor of giving his clerks half hour in the morning and said that his store would open at S::30 at the beginning of the New Year.
 Grieve. Bisset & Hollands, as we'll as Miller & Peck's, is likely to follow the plan of the other two big stores In few days.
 The clerks teem to be delighted at the thought of having an extra half hour in which to reach the stores in the morning and they are wearing all kinds of smiles. Counter jumping Is no sinecure. especially on Wednes- day and Saturday evenings and on bargain days.

Creeping Salt.

Here is something in the course of natural phenomena that will interest and instruct the little folk if they look into it curlously: Into tumbler half full of water dissolve just as much common table salt as can be held in solution. Let It stand for n few days and see how the salt creeps out of the water, up the inside of the glass and down the outslde-just like thing of life trying to escape from its environ ment. And when all the salt is ap- parently out of prison the water re mains as salty us before! It is pretty demonstration.
