DIR. GELsTHoRPE TALKS
OF FAIRvIEw CONDITIONS

DR.. w. Fl. Gelsthorpe, who is in the
brokerage business in Fairview, is pay
ing a short visit to Goldfeld in con-
nection with his mining interests here.
DIR. Gelsthorpe reports activity and
a very promising outlook before the
northern camp. The mines and pros
poets are developing well and In four
places ore is being sacked.
Last week the Redrock company
struck ore on it's Paymaster claim that
gave a return of $500 90. This company's
holding is located in the southern por-
tion of the amp. The management is
now sinking on the ledge and will
prospect 1T at depth.
For the new electic railroad, onnect-
ing Fairview with the mines, two miles
distant, DIR. Gelsthorpe reports that
$4,000 has already been subscribed. The
railroad is badly needed for it is a long
uphill walk to the mines and many of
the miners, rather than make 1t twice
daily have preferred to live up the mar
row gulch near to their work. An cleo
trio plant is also projected for Fairview
and this with the railroad it is expected
will be completed early in the spring.

An attempt, apparently with the mo-
1--WE OF robbery. was made to wreck West
Shore train No. 1909, known as the Chi
cago Limited Express, west-bound about
Two miles east of this city early this
morning.
engineer John Scanlon noticed an Odpr
coming from the front of the engine that
indicated n hot box. He brought his
traln 10 stop and found wedEed be-
meath the pony trucks a piece Of wood,
ntWn from a tie and cut to fit the rail.
instead Of throwing the wneels from tn.
track II had pushed along ahead of the
pilot and pony trucks until it was smok-
ing with the friction. The piece of iTood
was not only cut 50 that it fit upon the
rail. but one end was shaped so that the
wheels would run upon it instead of shov-
ing it off the rail
This train hauls number Of express
cars, carrying no passengers, and it is
believed that the persons who placed the
obstruction upon the track understood
this and were working with intent rob
the train after wrecking it,"

Universalist Vesper Service.

At the Universalist church yesterday
morning the sermon of Rev. Scudder,
why l Am a CniverSalist," was well re-
ceived. The basis of the sermon was the
belief in the nature of God. The preacher
said that he believed that God is an al
mighty intelligent personal God. and that
He is almighty in goodness. The speak
or said he believed in the absolute capa-
bility of Jesus Christ at the Saviour Of
the race.
In the evening the vespcr service was
well attended. Rev. Scudder said that
Christianity was the all inclusive religion
because it had all the strong points of
the other religions and none Of their
weaknesses. The religion of Jesus gives
to man a perfectly sufficient revelation
Of God as the Almighty Father who's"
nature is love. IL recognizes the value of
the human soul and furnishes an impuls"
in the life OF its founder which gives the
soul salvation. SO IL Is the perfect re-
l.gion. A religion which Identifies itself
as Christianity docs. with the cause n
freedom in every land. and tends to unite
all men in one great brotherhood under
the loving God who Is the Father OF all
alike, is surely the desire Of all nations,
and is destined to he the faith of all man
kind and the salvation of the human race.

Leslie l.. Hubbard.

The people of Watcrvillc as we'll as
other towns and cities of Maine will
learn with sorrow of the death of Les
lie l.. Hubbard. which occurred at the
age of 80 years. at the home of James
Munroe on Alden street at Ais o'clock
Sunday morning. The sudden end Of
this railroad man WAS due to the ef-
ftcts of Il blow received from an over
head bridge as he was walking toward
u caboose of d freight train which hap
pcEed about two years ago. Although
Mr.. Hubbard was not Il member of a
train crew. but an engineer he was on
Il return trip to Watervile from which
he had taken Il train as engineer the
day previous. The injuries sustained
We're soon aftcrward pronounced as
such as he could finally recover from
but at odd intervals since that time he
had been attacked with commissions
which incaEacitated him from further
service on the railroad and from the
effect, Of Which he died Sunday morn
ing.
Mr.. Hubbard was found to be in a
critical condition at about l o'clock.
when ii was seen that he was uncon-
scious. Twelve attacks of commissions
We're sufficient to take the breath of
life from the once sturdy frame.
Mr.. Hubbard was 4 native of Unity
ana became a citizen of Waterville
about 1G years ago. At the age of 20
he was promoted 10 the position of To-
comotive engineer OH the Maine Cen
trail Railroad and passed the last years
Ci his service on a regular run on q
train on the FarmingtOn branch. Be
fore coming to Waterville he was mar
ried to Miss Miller of Belfast. He was
left n WidoWer and with no children
shortly before his injury.
Prayers will be said at the residence
Of Mr.. Munroe this morning, after
