relation to the chances of his nomina.

not seem to strike his audience. The

much enthusiasm by the representa-.

prosperity OF the islands.

body OF James :Newland OF WarWoo9.
Sunday afternoon. Newland vas last
seen about s o'clock In the morning,
and is supposed to have met death by

rescuers arrived.

the time. While they were passing
along they noticed the body and lifted
it into the yacht. The body was istiliS
warm, and there was very little water
in the stomach in comparison with
other cases Of drowning.
Though the verdict reached by the
Jury was that Of accidental drowning.
the fact that Newland, being dead and
not being under the water, Is very
strange, and 1t is supposed that was
at the very limit Of exhaustion from.
swimming when he was reached. IN.
til Just moment prior to his being
taken into the boat he was seen BY
nobody and 1t might be possible that
he had Just come up after going down
the first time. Newland was said 10
be an excellent swimmer and IA man
who boated around the river In q skifr
a good deal. 1t Is thought by some
that he might have been out boating
and fell into the river. but on account
OF some unhealthy conditiony3was I'M
able to reach the shore. Newland was
probably about sixty.five years old and
had always enjoyed good health. sys
AS soon as the body was found byS
the boating party It was taken by them
to Warwood. Coroner W. W. Rogers
was notified and went there immedi.
ately and held an inquest. The verdict
Of the Jury was death by accidental
drowning.
Newland was last seen about eight
o'clock Sunday morning by a Warwood
man. but did not tell the man where
he was going, and 1t Is supposed that,
he went to the river and had probably
gone out In boat.

TWO PER|SHED IN A
FIRE At A RESORT

OLD ORCHARD, Me-, Aug. 49,
Two lives were lost and five persons
were injured, three seriously, as a
result of the fire which swept
through this seashore resort Thurs
day night, causing a loss of from half
to three-quarters of a million dol
lars.
The dead: Philip Partridge, "a
years old, of Pittsburg, struck by
train en- route to fire. Unidentified
man, killed by explosion of soda
tank; head blown off.
The injured: Rev. Rufus H. Jones,
Seco, Maine; Melvin T. Morrill,, Sa-
lem, Mass.
Seventeen summer hotels, sixty
cottages and score of buildings oc-
cupied by stores were destroyed. 1t
is believed that the fire started from
an overturned lamp in the annex of
the Hotel Olympia. The insurance
will not exceed 100000.
The burned area extends between
the railroad and the ocean for nearly
half a mile. The people who were
driven from the hotels were compell-
ed to spend the night on the beach.
Brush wood fires were kept going,
around which the refugees sat in
shivering groups. The loss is esti-
mated at $S00,000
