MT. SIDE CATTERY EXCLUDED
Fountain Head of AnEOra FeIines
Barred from Mails.

Barred from Mails.
The Mount Side Cattery, an institution
doing business in Waterville. Me, that
guaranteed to supply Angora cats. with
kittens or small cats, an g per head, and
fine silky japanese spaniels at the same
price, has been denied the use of the
mails by order of Postmaster General
Meyer.
Charles L. Wakefield is the name Of the
genius who conducted the Mount Side
Cattery, and he, toe, has been debarred
from the use of the mails on the ground
that the "cattery'' was a scheme designed
to defraud.
Z. Z. Post and }. c. Hodges we're the
complainants against the Mount Side
Cattery and Wakefield. Post replied to
an advertisement in which the eattery
offered TO furnish highly bred Angora
cats He wanted a eat with kittens The
cattery sent Mr.. Post a cat But he al
leges that il was not an Angora; that it
was not with kittens; further, that the
feline was OF plebeian birth and in addition
TO all these things it died the day after
Mr.. Post received it, All Hodges sent
TOR Japanese spaniel. The breed OF
the dog. its general appearance and char
aeterstics are not described in MIR
Hodges complaint, He represented, how
ever, that il was not "a japanese spaniel.
Persons in Waterville who knew all
ab0ut the Mount Side Cattery were in
terviewed by the inspectors who fnvesti-
gated the case, and what they said about
the cattery and Wakefield was decidedly
uncomplimentary They intimated that
every time the cattery received an order
the household pet of some prominent resi-
dent Of the town disappeared twixt dark
ness and dawn.

unite in warmest wishes for the days 10

for the intellectual and spiritual treats
with which he has favored US as he has

friendly relations between Dr. Hale and

GREER DOUBTS TROOPS GUILT
Lieutenant Takes Stand in Browns

Declares That on Night of Shooting

ination by Senator Warner
His testimony developed the fact that.
while the night was starIit, it was impos-
sible six feet away to tell whether a man
was white or colored. He reduced 10 five
or seven minutes the time in which gun
could be cleaned so as TO show no traces
of having been fired.
He reiterated his opinion that since the
discharge Of The three companies he had
not been sure that the shooting was done
by men of those companies. He was pos
itive that the older, faithful men Of the
companies had nothing 20 do with it. and
knew nothing about it. II It were done
by the soldiers. only six or eight were con
cerned. and. in his opinion the course
pursued toward the men after the shoot

vented the discovery Of the guilty men.

His doubts as to the guilt of any Of

testimony before the cOurt-martial and
the committee. and by the fact that. al

There are many good anecdotes told Of
Father Taylor. the old Methodist minis
ter. who did such noble work among the

friend Of Emerson. and the intimacy used
to horrify many Of the old-time Meth

The annual conference Of the Methodist
Protestant Church meets in Washington
this year OF the Cd Of april. at the Rhode
Island Avenue Methodist ProtestsH
Church. The most important event Klll
be the election of a new president. Ilae
president IS elected annually. and no one
Is eligible more than FIVE years Ia suc-
I
office for the full term Of five years.
There is much interest felt as to who ~ill
be his successor. Another event which is
anticipated with pleasure. are the after
noon lectures on '"Fhe Book which are
TO be delivered by DR.. MuIhaH during con
ference week. 1t has been said that Dr.
Mulhall is exceued by no one as a lectur-
er on this subject.
The Rhode Island Avenue Methodist
Protestant Church was fer years located
on Twelfth street. near NJ About five
years ago the congregation bought a lot
and built the present attractive structure
at the corner OF Rhode Island avenue and
First street. Many objections were offer
ed to this change Of location. But with
wisdom and foresight the pastor, Rey
John n. Gil, urged the plan Of removal,
as be thought their field Of usefulness
would be greatly enlarged. How trIe his
view was has been demonstrated by the
almost unprecedented growth OF the
church. When DR.. gill and his congre-
cation moved into the Rhode Island Ave
nue. church there were only about sixty
members; at this time there are over 900.
Indeed, the membership has almost out
grown the rev edihce. Last year a
spacious Sunday school house was added
30 the church. II Is equal in equipment
and beauty To any in Washington, Dr.
Gill is an earnest, able preacher. and
allows nothing 10 interfere with the pas
torai work of his church. Every member
looks upon him as a personal friend.
