his contract stipulated that only the

George F. Payne & Company have
acknowledged that bills for converting
the attic Of the capitol into rooms
were padded, and former State Treas
urer Frank G. Harris has declared tnat
the commonwealth was grossly de-
frauded. Other state officials are to
testify later.
That criminal prosecutions will soon
be brought is certain. Many of the al
legged illegal acts In the construction
and furnishing of the capitol will be
barred by the statute of limitations at
the. end of seven months more. At
tention will therefore be paid to the
criminal cases first. This has been de-
cided on also because it is recognized
that success in the civil suits depends
to a great degree upon the criminal
actions.

A LINC0LNvILLE BOB CAT.
1t Killed Yearling Calf and Was Drag.
ging it Away When Shot.

1t Killed q Yearling Calf and Was Drag.
gins it Away When Shot.
There has been received for mount
ing at the establishment of the S. L,
Crosby Co., a bob cat which probably
carries off the palm for size for any.
thing in the cat family that has been
seen in Maine for very long time.
This big bob cat was killed by George
d. Spaulding of Lincolnville. The cat
weighed when killed about so pounds
and was an old stager, as the blunted
teeth bore evidence, and doubtless has
killed many rabbit and partridge in
his day. The cat essayed to take big
ger game than his natural prey of the
woods and in doing so met his finish.
The country around Lincolnville has
been infested with bob cats for long
time and this winter the cats have been
very bold. The cold and the snow
probably have driven them out of the
woods to seek food in the barnyards on
the outskirts of the town and it may be
seen how bold and what dangerous
customer this big cat was when it is
stated that he was killed while in the
act of dragging away a yearling calf
which he had killed. Mr.. Spallding
had been watching for the animal for
some time and got him right in the act,
1t is very seldom that bob cat as
large as this is killed in Maine; in fact,
it would be big bob cat anywhere.
Ordinarily the bob cats killed in this
part of the country do not weigh more
than 30 pounds and 30-pound bob cat
is d husky animal. They are not as
large as their cousin, the Canadian
lynx, at least, do not weigh as much,
though they have longer legs and look
larger. Frequently lynxes are killed
weighing 40 pounds and more. This
cat stood about 20 inches in height and
measured about 80 inches from the tip
of his nose to the tip of his three-inch
tail and was unusually fat for this time
of the year. Its head was almost as
big and round as that of the young
lioness one sees in the circus and the
| big tufts of hair sticking out from the
cheek gave the head ferocious and
tigerish aspect
These animals are reported to be very
numerous in the Maine woods this win
ter and when it is considered that they
attain such size as this one it can read
lily be seen how great an enemy they
are TO deer anu TO any other living thing
they take it into their minds to tackle
in the woods. One of these big cats

WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE ON ROOSE
WELT.

Roosevelt is no drawer than many
another man, who has fallen in the
struggle against Mammon. But he has
moral vision. A broad
er education than any man has brought
to the White House since Jefferson's
day, life unstained by vice Of any
kind, a clean mind, and boyish heart,
simple, confding, just, have combined
to keep Theodore Roosevelt's faith in
GOO and his belief III the common hon.
eSty OF the common man unSeared.'
Thus writes William Allen White in
his Roosevelt: A Force for Righteous
ness" IN the February McClure's.
Successful contemporary portraiture is
SO rare an achievement that an article
like this of Nh. Whites merits unusual
attention. Throughout he displays the
sureness of touch and soundness of in
tuition that have distinguished his
earliest work; some of his passages in
deed, seem inspired, SO brilliantly do
they hit it Off What, for instance,
could be better than this:
"a middle-aged, middle-siZed figure,
struggling against pudginess, simple,
boylsh, direct; impulsive for the right
and lntolerant of wrong; human to the
core, with his blind side for his friends
and his sleepless eyes for his enemies
a group of gentlemen for whom he
never has to blush a
happy mixture of the cheerful idiot,
the seer of visions, and the captain and
crew OF the Nancy Brigg"-a man
who does the undisputed thing in such
buoyant way!'
Mr.. Whites analysis of Roosevelt's
career, and 1.-The tremendous effect Of
his precepts and his consistent ex-
ample" is handled in this writer's most
brilliant and able manner.

MRS. ELvA BARBER EDWARDS

There are three critical stages in q
woman's life which leave their mark
In her career. The first Of these stages
is womanhood, or the change from a
care free girl to budding womanhood,
The second is motherhood, and the
third is Change of Life.
Perils surround each of these stages
and most of the misery that comes
to women through i'll health dates
from one or another of these i'm
portant crises.
Women should remember that Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
made from native xoots and herbs has
carried thousands of young girls over
the critical period of puberty, has
prepared mothers for childbirth, and
in later years carried them safely
through the change of life more sue
cessfully than any other remedy in
the world. Thousands of testimonials
from grateful persons, two CT which
are here published, substantiate this
fact beyond contradiction.
