Fatal Accident at South Paris.
MELRoY RAND, FIFTEEN YEARS OF AGE,
KILLED BY DISCHARGE OF GUN.

Melroy Rand, about Is years of age,
was instantly killed Friday afternoon,
in the woods south of South Paris vii
lage by the accidental discharge of
gun.
Rand, in company with Walter Pratt,
about his own age, and Henry Flagg,
little younger, had been hunting at what
is known as the ''duck pond" This is
a small bog pond in the woods south OF
the village and west of the railroad.
From the railroad, some thirty rods
south of the railroad bridge, a path
leads in westward about quarter of a
mile, to this pond.
At the time of the accident, between
and 5 o'clock, the boys were coming ont
from the pond by this path, and had
come only a short distance from the
pond. The Flagg boy was ahead, carry
ing a shot gun. Behind him was Walter
Pratt, carrying a shot gun over his
shoulder. Last came Mel Rand, who
had no gun, but carried revolver on
his hip. 1t is supposed that Rand thought
he heard or saw something in the bushes,
and reaching forward, grasped the muz-
zle of the gun which Pratt was carrying,
to take it from him. At any rate he
took hold of the muzzle of thegun and
pulled it toward him, when it was dis
charged. The charge of shot entered his
breast, tearing fearful hole. He fell in
his tracks, and undoubtedly died instant
| ly.
The other boys immediately went to
Jailer Farrar and informed him of what
had happened. He summoned DR..
Bradbury to the scene, and finding that
the boy was dead, summoned Coroner
William j. Wheeler. Mr.. Wheeler was
quickly there, and after he had viewed
the body, it was removed from the pool
of blood in which it lay, and taken to
the undertaking rooms of Miss Thayer.
After full investigation Of the affair,
Coroner Wheeler decided that 1t was SO
plainly case of accident that no inquest
was necessary.
Rand's father lives in Albany, and his
mother is dead. He has been living fol
some time with his sister, Mrs. Eugene
Bryant, on Hill Street in South Paris
He also has a brother who lives in Mas
sachusetts.
The funeral is at 1 o'clock Monday
afternoon, and he will be buried beside
his mother at Mechanic Falls.

"Under Southern Skies.

Few plays of recent years have been as
successful as "Under Southern Skies"

Norway Opera House, Thursday, Sept.
13.
This play Is describ ed as "the most
original, diverting and unhackneyed play
of Southern life ever written" Tho
story Of "Under Southern Skies" is an
absorbing one and it is told with all the
fascination that has made the same
authors play, "Way Down East" so
successful. Many even prefer "Under
Southern Skies" for It's spirit of gayety,
its romance and beauty are more alluring
than the homelier attributes OF way
Down East" The story of "Under
Southern Skies Is woven about an
aristocratic family of the south and their

their chivalry, their hot-headedness, and
their spirit of lavish, unstudied hospital.

Post Office Burglary at Bethel.
NEARLY A THOUSAND DOLLARS IN

At q little before o'clock Monday
morning the safe in the post office at
Bethel was blown, and about $500 In
stamps and about 500 in money was
taken, together with some private papers
belonging to Mr.. Billings, the post
master. The noise of the explosion
woke nearly every one in that part Of
the village, but before any one could get
to the scene the burglars had secured
their booty and departed. A hunt was
Immediately instituted, and officers in
all directions were notified, but no trace

South Paris Men Lost Pocketbooks'
LIGHT FINGERED GENTRY FOUND STATE
FAIR WEEK PROFITABLE.

Evidently gang of pickpockets found
Maine a good field for their operations
during the state fair, though indications
are that they didn't do their best work
at the center of the excitement, but kept
away from the observance of the police
as much as possible.
At least two South Paris men, with
others from this section, suffered from
their work. On Wednesday Frank w.
Perkins. who had gone to the state fair,
found after arrival in Lewiston that his
pocketbook with about twenty dollars
in money was missing. he Immediately
telephoned to the South Paris station to
see if he had laid it down there, but 1t
had not been seen, nor has it been seen
since.
Thursday morning there was tre-
mendOus crowd on the early train, and
of course big rush across the platform
at Lewiston Junction. AS r. N. Hall of
this place went up the steps of the car
on the Lewiston train, he found man
blocking the gangway at the door of the
car, while the crowd pushed up behind.
Except for the annoyance of it, he paid
no attention to the matter at the time,
but after the train had started, happen
ing to put his hand in his trousers pock-
ct, he discovered that his pocketbOok
was gone, containing somewhere between
forty five and fifty dollars.
Mr.. Hall Immediately announced his
loss, and two men from Bethel, who oc'
cupied seat near him, found that they
also had been relieved of some currency,
though considerably less amount. II
is said that the gang apparently con:
tinued operations through the day, and
that some men had even larger sums
lifted from them when coming home al
night.
S. P. Stearns of this place was touched
lightly, so lightly in fact that the fellow
didn't "touch'' him at all. As he was
going up the steps of the car at the juno
ton, he felt a hand in the vicinity of hii
trousers pocket, and turning, saw th'
owner of the hand, but thought at frs
that it was merely an accidental contac
in the crush, and when, an instant after
he realized what it meant and turned
again, the fellow had disappeared in th'
crowd. He didn't lose his pocketbOok

has been at loggerheads at times with
some Of the administration officials,
yet every one recognizes in him q
| broadminded American, an able de-
| batter. and a man who has brilliantly
served his state, his party and his
country.
Mr.. Pettus, while he entered the
| senatorial chamber at n later date than
did his colleague, came at that period
OF life when great number Of men
seem to think that the time for politi-
cal aspirations and honors has passed.
He is considered one Of the wits of the
Senate. 1t Is well remembered by
great number of the senators how he
scathingly ridiculed the speech Of a
senator during the notable debate on
the Philippine question. His remarks
were so ridiculous and laughab BILE that
the hitherto decorous Senate convulsed
itself with laughter. The same day he
again caused the Senate to break out
in an uproar when he was seen to
slowly rise in his seat as though to
seek recognition from the presiding
officer, and just at that moment when
Senator Frye, the President pro tenn,
was about to signify that Senator Pet
tus was entitled to the floor, the Ala
bama senator slowly put his hand into
his pocket, pulled out a piece OF black
tobacco bit a piece off in q very me-
thodical manner, and with that same
slow motion deposited the tobacco In
his pocket and sat down. Such incl
dents have been the favorite way OF
Senator Pettus's breaking In on the
soleDnity Of the Senate.

Charges against EngIann

-lhe remarkable allegation that Tie
British fleet was held in readiness to
destroy the Russian feet If the battle
of the Sea of Japan had gone in the
Russians favor is made by Admiral Ro-
jestv1nsky in a letter published in the
Novoe Vremya, at st. Petersburg, with
The permission of the Russian minister
OF marine. Referring to the secrecy of
Admiral Togo in regard to the dis
position of his forces, Rojestvensky de-
clares that, "this was unknown even to
the admiral of the British fleet allied
with the japanese, who concentrated hi.
forces at Weihaiwei in expeo tation OF
receiving an order to annihilato the Rus
sian fleet il this, the final object o{
Great Britain, was beyond the power OF
the Japanese"
From Admiral Rojestvensly's account
of his tactics in the battle the reading
public becomes almost convinced that
the Russian commander outmaneuyered
Admiral Togo at every point and was
himself the real victor. Rojestvensly
declares he knew Admiral Togo's exact
whereabouts two days before the battle
made his dispositions accordingly, and
entered the fight with his eyes open
The admiral only casually states in the
course of his letter that the minister
of marine is investigating the causes oi
the catastrophe in order to determine
whether the commander shall be court
martialed for the small matter of the
] loss of the fleet.
