Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1907-11-28

The correspondent of the Bangor
News says: Truly there are more things
in the woods around Camden than are
dreamed of in anybody's philosophy.
Yesterday afternoon A mos Milliken was
quietly cutting aldefs on Fred Frey's
wood lot, at peace with himself and
with the world. when. becoming sud-
denly conscious that he was not along
he looked up to fencounter a pair Of
angry looking eyes. Behind the eyes
was huge, ugly looking body, and at.
tachcd TO that a long busy tail which
beat the grou nd in a manner which
plainly indicated that it's owner was in
a pad temper. Mr.. Milliken didn't
recognize the animal as belonging to
any species with which he was &C
quaintcd and being unarmed, except
for his axe, he caught up a long alder
pole and tried to frighten the creature
away, but he didn't brighten. Instead
he stood up on his hind legs in a most
forbidding manner. Mr.. Milliken says
he stood fully six feet high and remem-
bering that discretion is sometimes the
better part Of valor he left the vicinity
with the best speed he could. The next
day he went back to the spot with
another man and two guns but there
was no sign of the strange animal.

For all the joys of life and sense
Which bring to sorrow recompense,
For sunny day and starlit night,
For rivers rush and wild birds flight,
For healing wind and cooling rain.
For crowded mOws and bins of grain:
For griefs that go and hopes that stay.
Unto the Lord give thanks today.
For brain that gives it's swift command.
For seeing eye and serving hand.
For willing feet. that daily go
Upon life's errands to and fro:
For chance to serve our fellow man
And work with God in natures plan,
For cheering friendships loves that stay,
Unto the Lord give thanks today.

.HAYWOOD'S ILLNESS
DELAYS THE TRIAL
Had Sudden Attack During Night
and Physicians Were
Called.

BOISE, IDAHO, June 1.-William D..
Haywood was seized with a sudden Ill
ness early this morning. and was UNI
able to appear In court. His trial on
the charge that he murdered former
Governor 'Steunenberg was adjourned
until Monday. Haywood was restless
most OF the night and early this morn
ing began crying in pain. Two hur-
riedly summoned physicians announced
after examination that he was suffering
from an intestinal toxemia. Measures
for the alienation Of the pain in his
abdomen and head included the adj
of morphine, and dizziness
and nausea caused by the drug rather
than by the original trouble were re-
sponsible for his inability to get to
court in the afternoon
Haywood Is Il hearty eater and since
the trial began he has stopped taking
exercise. These conditions, added to the
worry and strain of the trial, are be-
lieved to be responsible for the attack.
His counsel informed the court that
he would BIO able to be present on Nom
day, and an adjournment was taken UNI
til that day.

SEASON
WAS SATISFACTORY
Record OF Richmond College
Baseball Team OF 1907 a
Creditable One.

The Richmond College baseball sea-
son closed May 14th. and despite the
fact that the championship cup went to
William and Mary, the students are
very we'll satisfied with the results
of the season. 1t will be remembered
that the race for the Championship was
very close among all the colleges this
year, and the game at Broad Street
Park between the two leaders of the
Observation-Disclosures and Mary and
Richmond College-was one of the
hardest fought and most sensational
games of the season, resulting finally
in a score of to in favor 't William
and Mary.
Probably the best games played by
the Spiders this year .3ere against
The games with Trinity and Davidson
were fine exhibitions, although they
were lost. The score of the first was
t to in favor Of Trinity. and David
son won by score of to l. Most
of the averages We're very gratifying,
both In fielding and in batting. al
though there were a few rather weak
spots. Gardner, left-fielder and cap
tain for 1908, led the batting, with an
average of .27S
Lack of Grounds.
The greatest drawback the Spiders
litil lIle IdNh VI IL Sullipic
on which to practice. Until the for
nation of the Virginia League the
team could make use of the diamond
ut Broad Street PARK. but this year
they had to do most of their work
on the campus, and this was very UNI
satisfactory Mr.. Gwathmey, manager
for next year. Will put forth every
effort to get a cinder diamond on tho
campus, and in all probability this can
be done. He is also interested in the
proposed new ball park. and, in fact,
all the colleges of the State are urging
park where amateur games may be
arranged in Richmond.
Inc prospects for a team for next
year are very bright. All the men
who made their letters this year are
expected to return. with the exception
Of Martin, frst-base, and possibly Cap
tain Richardson. of this years team
D. Wright and Lodge will be back for

first base Richardson, on third. will
be very much missed II he falls to
come back to college. both on account
of his batting and his fielding. There
are four or five good ball-players think
ing of coming to Richmond College
next year. and, with those who showed
up so well on the second team, there
ought to be good squad from which
to pick team for 1908. Bristow, Ell

We're particularly good on the scrubs
and will make strong applicants fol

To Hold Gas Festival.

At a meeting Of the board of trade
at Pierre, after a full discussion, it
was decided at once to begin arrange
ments for a gas belt festival to be held
in that city this fall at some date
which will not conflict with other fall
entertainments in the state. The plan
is for a general exhibit of grains and
agricultural products Of that section
Of the state, and coupled with it, a gen
eral carnival which will be arranged
for the entertainment of all visitors
t o the city. Another feature will be
exhibits of g~as-propelled machinery
and devices of all kinds, for which
space will be provided. Committees
will be appointed at once to begin the
necessary preliminary work, and the
first festival will be made as success
full as possible, that it may help the
following years along.
