Miss Mav's House Ransacked.

During the night of Sunday, the 14th.
the bungalow which is the summer
home of Miss E. G. May of Boston, a
short distance south of The Beeches
near Paris Hill, was entered and ran
sacked. Miss May had not returned to
Boston, but had been staying at The
Beeches for few days, and had closed
her house for the winter.
An attempt was evidently made to get
in at a cellar window, and the window
was broken and a knife blade was
broken off in the attempt, and some
blood was left from cut fingers. En-
trance was then effected through door
which was bolted on the inside, by
breaking a glass panel and reaching in
to unbolt the door. The house was
thoroughly ransacked, trunks and
closets broken open and things thrown
out in heap. The marauders did not
even take the trouble to shut the doors
behind them, but walked off leaving
them open.
Some small articles are missing, 1t Is
impossible to tell just how many, but
nothing of special value, because there
was nothing of special value in the
house. Miss May keeps all her valuables
in her house in Boston.
Sheriff McIntire was at once notified,
and is at work on the case, but there is
almost nothing in the line OF clues to
work from.

George Ruff Instantly Killed.
HORRIBLY MANGLED BY A CIRCULAR
SAW AT BRYANT's POND.

George Ruff, aged is years, was prob
ably instantly killed Wednesday after
noon by falling on circular saw at Bry.
ants Pond.
Ruff has been clerk at the Glen Mount
ain House at Bryant's Pond for the past
two seasons. On the afternoon of We'd
nesday he was at work saving wood on
a circular saw which is at the grist mill
of Z. Andrews, run by the gasoline en-
CINE which furnishes power for the mill.
John S. Brown, manager of the grist
mill, had been at work with Ruff, but
lust before the accident had stepped in
to the mill and was not looking in the
direction of the saw at the time, so that
no one saw the accident.
1t is not known how the accident hap
pened, but it is thought that stick
bound, and that in attempting to move
il Ruff lost his balance and fell on to the
saw.
When Ruff was found, which must
have been less than minute after the
accident, he was dead and terribly man.
gled. 1t is thought that death must
have been instantaneous.
Coroner William j. Wheeler of South
Paris happened to be at Bryant's Pond
at the time, and was summoned, but the
affair was so plainly an accident that he
considered no action necessary.
Rufus home was at Rumford Falls,
where he has a mother and several
brothers and sisters living.

died June 9th, 1904, from pistol shot
wound. The policy and proofs OF death,
and all formal matters are admitted In
the case, the company refusing payment
simply on the ground that tho death
was suicide. In the policy is clause
which releases the company from la
bility, except for the return OF the pre-
miums paid, II the insured dies by sui.
eide within one year from the date OF
the policy. The death took place with
in that length Of time after the policy
was issued.
The facts are that Mr.. Virgin was
found dead quito early In the morning,
lying on the floor Of privy to which he
had gone a short time before. There
was bullet hole in the right side OF bis
head, and beside him on the floor his re-
volver was lying, with two exploded
shells in the chambers. He was q clerk
in the hardware store Of Stanley Bisbee
at Rumford Falls, but for about month
previous had been of on account OF Ill.
ness. Testimony was introduced by
the defence to show that he was worried
about his physical condition, and also
about financial affairs, he having incur
red considerable responsibility by the
purchase of second house, and having
to meet his payments on that while he
was not earning on account OF his
illness.
On the other hand 1t Is contended by
the plaintiff that Mr.. Virgin was at that
time recovering from his illness, which
was not serious, and that he had not
been discouraged, but was OF naturally
cheerful disposition; that his financial
affairs were all right and occasiOned him
no uneasinessness, and that there was
nothing in his conversation or manner
in the time Immediately preceding bis
death which would indicate that he con-
templated any such act. 1t appeared In
evidence that he had for some time car.
ried a revolver constantly, because OF
certain reported hold-ups on the road
which he travelled.
The testimony in the case was closed
Saturday afternoon in good season for
an early adjournment to reach the trains,
and the arguments were in order at the
opening of the session Monday morning.
MANsLAUGHTER CASE NEXT.
Following the case now on trial, the
manslaughter case, State vs.. Henry L.
harrington, will be taken up. 1t will
probably open Immediately after the
n Don recess.
Following the manslaughter trial, the
civil docket will be completed in the
following order:
Frank w. Thoms VS.. Seth W. Fife.
Wright 4 Wheeler. Fife, Swasey.
Lewis 7. Smith vs.. Grin Steveno.
Purington, Swasey. Wright Wheeler.
Albert Thompson vs.. Stephen Is. Cummings ct
Kimbsii 4 Son. Holt. Foster & Foster.
The last named case is the one of SO
much interest in Norway, to determine
the respective rights of boat owners and
mill owners in the outlet of Tennessee
wassee Lake. 1t is likely to occupy a |
number of days.
1t is possible that one or two other |
small civil cases which have been placed
on the trial list may be tried at this term,
but it is not thought that they will. At
the conclusion of the cases named
above, the criminal docket will again be
taken up and cleaned up.
All the civil cases in which verdict
was given last week-Pearl vs.. Davis,
Hall VS.. Hall, and Ray VS.. Bisbee-will

CATARRH SEASON.
Disease Most Prevalent Ia the Fall Months.
Simple Way to Cure.

Simple Way to Cure.
At the first warning of catarrh, one
should begin using Hyomei. There is no
stomach dosing with this treatment.
The medication of its healing oils and
balsams is taken in with the air you
breathe so that it reaches the most re-
mote cells of the nose, throat and lungs,
killing the catarrh germs wherever pres,
emit, and soothing all irritations in the
mucous membrane.
You run no risk in paying F. A. Shurt'
left & Co. 81 for Hyomei outfit, as they
give their personal guarantee that If the
remedy does not afford relief, your
money will be refunded at once. Extra
bottles of Hyomei, If needed, cost but 81
cents, making it the most economical
treatment for catarrh as we'll as the only
one that is sold on guarantee.

entertained by MIR. and Mrs. II. A. Hill
ton at their home on Pleasant Street.
As Mr.. and Mrs. Hilton are about to
leave town, it had been planned to give
them farewell reception week earlier,
but owing to their temporary absence
from town 1t was not done, so the club
was invited there. The first part of the
evening was spent In playing whist, six
tables being filed. Later refreshments
were served, and an hour was spent in
social converse. To close the evenings
pleasures, Mrs. Roxie MeArdle, the
president of the club, in behalf of the
Fan-Tans presented Mrs. Hilton hand
some hand painted nut set. Mrs. Hilton
was taken entirely by surprise, and was
too much overcome to respond, but Mr..
Hilton briefly thanked the club, and ex-
pressed the sentiment that the happiest
years of their lives, and the closest
friends they had found, had been here
in South Paris, during their ak years Of
residence here. The evening was very
pleasant and enjoyable 10 oil.
