Lawrence Lannson Tells
Regular Dime Novel Tale
Of How and Why He Fired His
Rifle at Ernest Cyr.
Pleads GuiIiy.--Commiited--- Of Falsely
Accused Wood Cost $4,000.

Bangor. Me-, Feb. 1S.-Lawrence Lam
son of Eddington, upon whose false testi-
mony an innocent man was indicted and
was tried, taking two days of the SUI
preme courts time before the chief JUS
tice, and at an expense to the county OF
nearly $1,000. was arraigned in the munic-
ipal court Saturday afternoon following
his confession of Friday.
The charge was assault with intent to
kill Ernest Cyr, tho same charge upon
which Albert Wood wa indicted, tried
and. acquitted.
I.amsOn pleaded guilty and was bound
over to the August term. He could not
furnish bonds and was committed to Jail.
1t is evident that a love of romance
and dime novel reading has got I.amson
into trouble. He appears to regard his
present plight with unconcern. :.
In telling the story of the crime he
says:
II had been thinking of going to hold
rp Cyr for some little time before I dill
it. / tied the clothesline around the rifle
and lowered ii out OF my window. Then
l climbed out and dropped from the win
dow sill. 1 left the rope tied to the bed
50 I could get back again. Then l went
over through the woods to Cyr's house,
about quarter of a mile away. This
was about . o'clock. 1 should say There
were no lights in the Cyr house and al!
was quiet. I went behind the wood pile
and moved few sticks so I had place
to lie and put my rifle through.
r
n little and scare Cyr. So I shouted at the
dd- to make him bark. The dog barkcd
all right. and pretty soon l saw Cyr come
to the window and lean out He spoke
to the dog and picked up Il stone, which
he threw over on top Of the woodpile
Then | said, Now I've got YOU. Hold lIl
your hands, And he did. l talked to him
for as much as 10 minutes, | guess. and
told him to hold up his hands all tn
time. Then he lodged down behind thu
window sill, and after | was sure he was
out of the way where l wouldn't hit him,
l fired to scare him.
after 1 fired l pulled the shell out of
The gun and ran. / went straight home
then. l tied the rifle to the clothcslinc
and then getting up on the lower window
-sill I steadied myself with the rope and
jumped for the upper window. / caught
the sill and pulled myself up Then
went to bed"
This is Lamson's story of his nights
worCsR Oct Is. When asked why IL
had Wanted to shoot at Cyr he replied
'G4 just wanted to scare him.

rather than otherwise. He is large fcl

in Presence of Hundreds.

through the main corridor and into the
East room the Marine Band orchestra
rendered effectively the grand march
from Wagner's "Tannhauser."
Miss Roosevelt never appeared to
better advantage. Perfectly self-pos-
sessed, she graciously recognized and
bowed to personal friends who lined
the way to the altar. Her wedding
gown was an exquisite creation. It was
OF heavy white hrocaded satin, point
lace, chiffon, filmy tulle and silver bro
caGc. The material from which the
gown was created was manufactured
expressly for Miss Roosevelt The de-
sign. lntricafe and delicate in its de-
tails was destroyed as soon as the
necessary amount of the material for
the dress was completed.
The gown had a particularly long
court train Of elegant silver brocade.
The bodice was made high without a
collar, was trimmed with beautiful old
point lace. the sleeves being finished
at the elbow with the same flmy ma
terial. Long white gloves barely met
the sleeves. a volunlinous tulle veil.
practically completely enveloping the
In her hair it was caught and held in
place by clusters of oranges blossoms.
Her dainty slippers, in perfect har-
mony with her gown. We're fastened
with silver brocade and tulle bows
caught with orange flowers instead OF
buckles.
The bride wore no jewels except the
magnificent diamond necklace which
was the gift of the groom. She carried
lovely shower bouquet of the rarest
and dainticst white orchids which the
groom was able to procure. The fragile
blossoms We're arranged in a cascade
effect, falling falling over her right arm
nearly to the foot of her gown. The
bouquet was tied with chiffon satin rib
bon in long bows.
AS Miss Roosevelt and Mr.. Long
worth faced Bishop Satterlee, n hush
fell over the assemblage. Every one
of the thousand present wished to
catch each syllable of the ceremony
which was to follow. In distinct, reso-
nant tones the Bishop began the
beautiful marriage service of the Epis-
copal church. The responses of both
the bride and the bridegroom were
audible distinctly throughout the great
apartment.
At the conclusion of the service

this building, which was four stories
high, The fire ragged fiercely but found
its progress also checked by another
party wall. The department could not,
however, prevent the flames from eX-
te.lding to another building owned and
occupied by the Cash Store Co. on Will
low street. 1t was here that the DEPART

Of the Willow street block fell over on
to the stable. carrying down with it
three hremen. The men We're not in
Jured to any extent. nor did the stable
take fire. although it was damaged by
the falling wall. 1t was here that the
fremen succeeded in preventing fur
ther progress of the flames and obtain
ing control of what threatened con-
ti1sration. at about o'clock this morn
iliS. The flames We're not finally extin-
Suishcd until 4 late hour tonight.
The flames were fought from every
vantage point, not only in the rear but
from across Merchants row and Center
street. Much of the adjoining property.
while not affected by the flames, were
damaged by the bursting of hose inside
the buildings.
Nathan A. Green. editor of the Rut-
land Herald, had a library in the Rip
ley building, as did City Health Officer
Edgar Il. Moore. J. p. Jones, a lawyer,
was another occupant of the Ripley
building.
In the Mead block were the law firms
of Butler & Maloney. II. r. Kingsley

On Willow street a building occu-
pied by w. Z. Barker as a storehouse

The fire was the largest which has
taken place in this city for many years.
