Municipal Court.

A hearing originated by action of
l.. j. Addition, as special officer of the
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals, took place in the Show
hogan Municipal Court on Friday
morning last. 1t having come to the
knowledge of Mr.. Addition that a
horse in the possession of William
Taylor of this place, was old and in
firm to such an extent as to unfit him
for work, he took the steps to have
him condemned and apprised as the
law provides. The horse was one
that Taylor had bought of man by
the name of Walker in Anson, giving
a mortgage back i'll the transaction,
and this required notice of the hear
ing to be served on both Taylor and
Walker. At the hearing after con-
sidering the evidence and giving OPP
portunity for all parties to be heard,
Judge Bachelor gave direction to Of
ficer Addition to have the horse de-
stroyed, awarding the owner five dol
lars therefor, to be paid by the coun-
ty.
Jack Croce was also before the
OOuFb FIludS uO'hih6J 90 WHY ioSu'e
of search made at his apartments
on Court street, by Deputy Sheriffs
Kimball, Emerson, Savage, Freder-
lex and Cook. Something over As
bottles of ale were found and these
were introduced in evidence, w. G.
Emery, one of the deputies, testi-
flying as to the circumstances under
which they were found. Croce, who
has but recently disposed of his fruit
store on alter street, where suspic-
ions of his being engaged in the re-
tail liquor business sometimes existed
in regard to him, plead not guilty.
The Judge pronounced sentence of
guilty and gave the customary SEN
tence of 500 and costs with 80 days
in jail An appeal was taken and
bonds furnished.

Gave Good Exhibition.

Hot Fire in Railroad Square Quickly Put
Out by Fire Extinguisher. Another
Exhibition Will be in the Same Place
at Half Past Seven Next Saturday
Evening.
One of the most successful tests of
fire extinguishers ever given here
occurred in Railroad Square on the
evening of March 18th, under the di-
rection of the representative of the
Phoenix Company of Boston. A big
crowd had gathered with the antici-
patton of seeing some of the fun
when the fire was started. A large
three sided box arrangement, about
seven feet high and four broad had
been built in the middle of the square
and covered with tar. At eight
O'Clock j. A. Crosby, the agent of the
Poenix Extinguisher, threw on a
quantity of gasoline, after starting a
small blaze so as to ignite the whole
affair. The flames shot 20 feet into
the air and the heat was intense
enough to make the crowd move back
quickly. The demonstration then
picked up one of the Phoenix Dry
Powder Extinguishers and with few
throws of the powder Immediately
extinguished the flames. The test
was one of the best ever seen here
and Mr.. Crosby was complimented by
many of the audience.
j. H. Murray of this place has been
fortunate enough to secure the ex-
elusive agency for these extinguish-
ers for Skowhegan and vicinity. 1t
will be well worth the attention of
any of our citizens to be on hand at
the second demonstration next Sat
urday evening.

Roy And SOIanO Crossed Bats
Sunday. y e"

The first game of the ''Dry Farmers
Leaugue" was played on the Solano
diamond last Sunday. The game was
a warm one from start to finish, both
sides did fine, but as Roy has the
ability to handle the big stick Solano
was defeated in score of 10 to II.
The main feature of the game was a
home run made in the fifth inning by
Ray Drumheller.
Winning the first game is very en-
couraging to our boys, and they
promise to make good" the coming
season.
There was large crowd in atten-
dance and every one enjoyed the
game. A return game will be played
in the near future. ,t

The Strongest Precinct In Mora Co.

Roy precinct No. p, of Mora Co.
will have at least one fourth of the
total vote of Mora county, in the
coming election. ~
Since last election over 1000 Of new
settlers have come to this precinct and
made their homes with u.s.. most of the
new comers are republicans in politics
which will make the republican party
of Nora county much stronger than
ever before. The. republican party
has been in power for twelve years
and from the present increase it is
evident thatit will be in power for
many more years to come.
What the people want is capable
and honest officials, which wish will
be granted the people in the coming
convention of the county.
The new conner element are all for
an early statehood, in order to get
this result, they do not wish to see a
change in electing new Delegate to
congress, as Mr.. W.. H. Andrews
seems to have'the cause of statehood
so adyaneed so as to assure us ol
statehood during the short session oi
congress in December. He is pow.
erful; influntial figure among the
members of the Senate and the House,
he is the one who has attained tn
promise of an early statehood and the
people thinkit proper he should be
re-nominated at the next Territorial
convention.
