HANLON WAS HELPLESS. Dick Hyland Walloped Him Without
 Mercy Last Night.

San Francisco, Sept 29.-Dick Fly. land of San Francisco won a clean cut decision over Eddie Hanlon last night at the Seaside Athletic club. Referee Jack Welch stopped the con test at the end of the thirteenth round, with Hanlon hanging helpless against the ropes and unable to de- fend himself against Hyland's punches.
 The fight throughout was stubborn ly contested. Hyland, however, land ed the cleaner and more forcefu. blows and was never in distress. He devoted most of his attacks to Han Ions body and kidneys, while tho latter delivered right swings to the head and jaw, and right and left body punches at close range.
 Early in the twelfth round Hanlon received fearful right uppercut ta the jaw, which was the beginning of the end. The bell saved Hanlon from defeat in this round. He came up very groggy in the thirteenth round and Hyland flogged him unmercifully. but could not land knockout blow. The crowd yelled for the referee to stop the battle, and, seeing the use- lessness of permitting the unequal contest to go further, the referee de- clared Hyland the winner as the bell denoted the. end of the round. A tremendous crowd witnessed the con- test.

General Manager J. p. Sewell told a Democrat reporter to-day that if the application for trolley line IT. Mill Plain Is not delayed longer than necessary in the city government, that line will be in operation within the next two months. If this be SC the city fathers should get move on them and give our neighbors in that part of the town an opportunity to get the benefit of the service this winter. The idea of Santa Claus being able to board a car in Ex- change place this Christmas-tide and ride out to the Stilson road Is some. thing that has set everybody talking, and no wonder that great effort Is being made to induce the officials to push things along as fast as possible and then ''stump" MT Sewell to build the road and equip 1t on time for use during the coming winter. MT Sew ell says he is authorized to take ma- terial from any place he finds 1t most convenient and employ all the helD that can be put on that job, and if the mayor, board of aldermen and department of public works enter into this thing with proper spirit he will surprise the natives by giving them the trolley for the Christmas holidays.

LAWYERS HAVE ARGUMENT.
Another Chapter in the Lathrop Cas- Which Goes Over for Q Week.

-
 The hearing for the appointment of an administrator on the estate of the late Mrs Esther Lathrop, first wife of Edwin U. LathrOp has gone over for week, as Attorney ONeill has discovered some way by which the present Mrs LathrOp can figure In the matter. Colonel Burpee appearing for Mir Lathrop and Attorney Root, counsel for the applicant, Harry Lathrop, Mir Lathrop's son, were on hand In the probate court today and they opened proceedings with . short but lively spat.
 Colonel Burpee practically accused Attorney Root of unprofessionnl be- havior by insisting upon a hearing of the matter while he was absent on his vacation and when his associate Attorney Carmody was unable to find sIr Lathrop or obtain any evi. dence to refute that given by the ap- plicant and his sister Mrs Clayton DeMott. They testified that notwith- standing the bank records at the time of Mrs Lathrop's death shower her account to be merely $1.914, ti ought to have been $2.9I0.
 Attorney Root maintained that Colonel Burpee's side of the litiga' ton had sufficient warning to be ready, but inasmuch at Attorney Root insisted upon going ahead witl the hearing despite Colonel Burpee's absence and forcing Attorney Car mody to appear for him even thoug, he knew practically nothing about the matter, Colonel Burpee said Il was not a fair proceeding.
 Attorney O'Neill gave notice somt time ago that he would wish to bt heard in the case and though what the present Mrs Iathrop could have to do with any funds left by the firsl Mrs Lathrop. Messrs Burpee and Root failed to see. they nevertheless agreed to an adjournment for a uppk

Tovn Election npld,y- Voting nl- chines te Be used in Sene WMdk

The town election will be held Monday and everybody should make 1t a point to get out early and votes for while some may say there Is noth- ing at stake 1t would be fell to re- member that the result means great deal from a party standpoint in any case 1t Is the duty of every electOr to go to the polls and take hand in the tussle one way or the other. The democrats will go into the fray with. the following candidates:
 Selectmen-Frank A. Wells, Thom- as Wagner.
 COnstables-Maurice F. Carm0dy, Walter B. Lannen, Thomas ]. O'Gor- man, Christopher Garrity.
 Registrar of voters-Henry OCon- nor.
 The republican standard bearers are as follows:
 Selectmen-Robert Palmer, H. W. Atwood.
 Constables- George o. Booth, John Barrie, Domenico Manfredi, James r. Lunny.
 Registrar of voters George M. Chapman.
 Henry w. Atwood has notified Chairman Church of the republican town committee. that he does not want the nomination for selectman. but whether it is because they don't care about the office, or that they know the ticket will be elected, n0- body cares to say, but in any case they left his name on and probably in case he wins. the big salary may prompt Mir Atwood to change his mind and accept the berth.
 The booths will be located at the following places: First district-State armOry. Second district-Temporary struc. ture on green.
 Third djstrict-City hall.
 Fourth district-Auditorium, South Main street.
 Fifth district-Temporary struc- ture on Union square.
 Sixth district-Good Win hull, fire mems room, Waterville. The Dead ballot machine will be used in the second ward and the Standard in the fifth. In all the other polling places the usual meth- cd of voting will be used On the machines people should not forget to vote for the constitutional amendment providing for the election of two of- ficers every two years instead of once q year as at present and the hold- ing of that election on the same date as the state election, thus doing away with the expense of one cleo tion. This is move in the right d. rectlon and everybody should help t along. When voting on the machine on this question turn the lever to the word "Yes." There will be no vote on the license question, so that peO- pie who can plank down the dimes will experience no trouble in getting all they want of the best that Is go- ing in the liquor line for the next year. >This is one thing we are surc of, even though we may not know which side will win out In the ma chimes. In the first, third and sixth districts the vote will be by ballot. The polls will open at 8 o'clock In the morning and close at 5 in the af- terno0n. The saloons will be closed all day."oi'"' a'f sdtt rst
