Johns Letter.

Neighbor Mason is one Of the lucky
ones this year, or was it forethought?
Last spring he sold number of COWS
at good figures, also late lambs at like
wise good figures, and he has an excel
lent stand of grass on the hill and in the
valley, more than enough to keep his
stock through the year that is coming
right along. He also has the gift OF
looking into machinery and understand
ing the working of the same and 80 he
doesn't have to buy new moving ma
chimes and things every time the moon
changes. Nine years he has bad the
charge of the corn cutters at the factory.
Also he is one of the accommodating kind
and isn't given to quarreling. We know
for We have lived by him seventeen
wears and have never had bat yet. In
all our seventy years we have never had
but one that we couldn't neighbor with.
That speeks volumes for that part of
the human family that we have rubbed
up against.

Although the grass lands seem so
parched and dry, ploughed lands show
moisture but little below tho surface.
Why Is this thus?
Half crop of hay is claimed BY many.
Add . quarter spending quality to it
and we are not encheered. There is
mercy even In dry cloud and thread

When thst shower came Tuesday
night It was hoped that the drouth had
ended Tor this year, at least, but 1t soon
ended and now It IL - dry as before,
and the trees on the hillside are turning
yellow for the want ot rain. o, for an
Elijah to pray for 1t!
To give some idea Of what the drouth
has done for the hay crop, one illustra-
ton will suffice. Last year one man
took from q field four loads OF good
English hay, and the other day he got
only one load of about the same size
and fine enough for gun wadding. But
we are faring better than that In the
house for wster. In the fall Of 1889 we
dug an acqueduct of moro than twenty
rods to the house, and never has 1t dried
up or failed to run from that day to
this, and splendid water 1t Is as they all
say who drink of 1t.

that one man inquired this morning for

The Fourth was very quiet about here,
not so much as popgun being heard

Made Key to Fit Store Doors.
SON OF FORMER SOUTH PARIS CLERGY
MAN ARRESTED AND CONFESSED TO
RoBBING RUMFoRD FALLS STORE.

Robert Chapman, who for several
months was employed by the (. K. Day
Co., Rumford Falls, as floor walker, but
finished his engagement about two weeks
ago, was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Ell
liot Friday, charged with the theft OF
money and other valuables from the
store the night before.
At first, Mr.. Chapman denied the
charge, but after the evidence became
quite conclusive he made a confession,
and Saturday morning entered a plea OF
guilty before Judge Stearns, and was
bound over to the Supreme Court, DC
tober term. Bail was set at 500. He
was taken to Paris Jail.
The Citizen contains the following
particulars:
Friday morning when the Z. K. Day
store was opened il was seen that the
money drawers had been ritied, and al
together about $50 stolen. The officers
were at once communicated with, and
all the facts put in their possession.
The sheriff soon found out that Chap
man had been trying to borrow money
the day before, and had that day paid
money of kind that correspondent with
that taken from the store. He ascertain
ed that Chapman had plans to have his
trunk taken to the station at night, pre-
paratory for starting for st. Johns, n.
B., where his wife is stopping, she hav-
ing gone there two weeks ago.
Without further evidence Chapman
was taken into custody. Later on 1t was
discovered that he had at some time
back pawned a dress pattern. When
confronted with the evidence of this and
other things Chapman weakened and
confessed the whole matter.
On st. Johns day the store was closed
for a while and it was then that Chap
man was given key to the back doors,
with instructions that they be locked
during the parade. He took that OPP
portunity to take an impression of the
key. He did this by very ingenious
method. The key was so pressed into q
soft paper that faultless impression
was made. From this he filed out per
feet key 80 far as the fit goes. The Of
ficers are of the opinion that he is an ex-
pert workman, for it is not an amateurs
Job to make key at best. 1t is evident
that only person we'll skilled could
make Yale key from any kind of an
impression.
Chapman says he made the key him
self and implicated no one. There were
found in his room several articles that
he had taken from time to time from
from the store. His genius seemed to
be limited to the mechanical work of
the robbery, for all else he left uncover
ed tracks.
There has not occurred anything that
has surprised the community any more
than the arrest and confession OF Chap
man. He was generally well liked and
considered an honorable man by all who
knew him. He formerly worked for the
International Correspondence School. Is
the son of Methodist clergyman who
was formerly settled at South Paris
where the young man is well known.
