Saco, Me.-Mayor Harry A. Wey-
mouth, who Is progressive and willing
to adopt new ideas in regard to gov
erning municipality, fayors the auto
speed banners and will probably cause
such warning signs to be erected In
different parts of the city. The ban
ners win either be strung across the
street or suspended by the side of
the thoroughfare, For some time past
the mayor has contemplated such ac-
tion, in view of the experience of Mas.
sachusetts cities ana towns.
He is OF the opinion that motorists
will obey the request upon the ban
ner. Just how the banners will be
worded he has not yet decided, but 1t
will probably be, he says, Drive with
care. We furnish you with good roads.
It's up to you. Speed limit IL miles
an hour"
The banners will be placed at the
entrances of the city There will be
one on Elm street near the Springs
island bridge, one on the Portland
road near the Searboro line, and one
on the Old Orchard road. The mayor
has faith in the banner scheme, but
says If the autoists do not comply
with the square deal plan, other steps
will be adopted to put stop to fast
driving through the principal streets
in the municipality.
The most Of the principal thorough
fares are now macadamized, and the
hard, smooth surfaces tempts the
owners of cars to speed phem. While
local men do not break the law with
reference to fast driving, strangers
who pass through the city have been
known to speed up Main and North
streets at the rate of So and 40 miles
an hour. There have been numerous
escapes from fatalities on account OF
the reckless driving, but as general
thing the autolsts have been many
miles away before an officer could be
notified
Que man was arraigned before the
court last year charged with over
speeding, but the evidence against him
was not sufficient to convict him. The
mayor believes that the best way tt
deal with this matter is to put tht
motorists on their honor. There have
never been any traps laid in the city
although the municipal officers have
contemplated such action after some
reckless stranger had whizzed through
the principal streets Of the city at the
rate of 40 miles an hour.

ing the chance to catch the real rob
bers off their guard and execute the
orders of the governor of the state Of
Durango to take them dead or alive.
Finally the bandits, who had been sus-
picious Of the recruits. relaxed their
vigilance and went to sleep together.
The rurales promptly shot them Ia
death.

Prince Of Wales Given Noisy Wei.
come by Fleets When He Lands.
Quebec. - The prince of Wales
landed from the British battleshlp
Indomitable Wednesday amid the
roar OF guns from the international
fleet OF British. French and American
warships. and the tumultuous demon
stration of $4,000 people massed upon
the wharves and the terraced nights
of the city. 1t was a spectacle OF
truly royal splendor as the latest
type OF British Dreadnaught, with
the royal standard flying, came to an,
chor among the double column Of for.
elen warships and the prince was wei.
coined ashore by Earl Grey, COVER.
nor general of Canada; Premier
Laurler and the assembled dignltar.
les, flanked by thousands of soldiers
and multitude of people.
It was 2.45 in the afternoon when
the crowds assembled on the cliffs
saw the prince Of Wales feet emerge
from the mist far down the river.
Immediately the guns of the war
ships began to thunder, the British,
French and American ships firing
their royal salutes together, while
every ship hoisted the royal standard
and broke out a mass of color from
stem to stern.
The Indomitable advanced majes.
tlcally, with sailors and marines
ranged along the gun deck. AS she
swung alongside the New Hampshire
the colossal magnitude and power of
the British ship stood out In bold re.
lief against the American battleship.
Behind her came the Minotaur, an.
other naval colossus. At 4 o'clock
the battleships again roared a salute
as the prince came ashore. He wore
the uniform of an admiral, with
waving white plume and dark coat
faced with gold embroidery, AS he
stepped on the Kings landing every
eye was turned on this rather frail
and youthful figure.
The prince bears little resem-
blance to his father, King Edward
VII. He is below medium stature,
with rather thin features and close
cropped yellow Saxon beard trimmed
to point. His face wore a smile at
the echoing shouts Of the people, the
rattle OF saluting arms and the
strains of the British national an
them. One of the first glimpses the
prince got as he stepped ashore was
bevy of English, French and Ameri-
can women in beautiful toilettes,
ranged in terraced seats before the
landing stage, including Mrs. Fair
banks, wife of the vice. president of
the United States, and Mrs. Cowles,
wife of the admiral and sister Of
President Roosevelt.
Premier Laurier delivered to the
prince an address of welcome, in
which he gave assurances Of the un-
swerving loyalty and devotion of
Canada to the king. and united re-
solve to promote the interests of the
empire. The prince responded in a
happy vein, speaking both In Eng
lish and French, extending the good
wishes of his father to Canada and
making pleasant allusion to the loyal
ty of English and French Canadians
alike. The ceremonies concluded,
the prince was driven in an open
carriage through the streets lined
with soldiers and packed with people,
