Jimmie CarneY's Day Off.

James Carney, guest of the county
by reason of illegal dispensing of contra
band liquid at Rumford, with further
action in bis case pending at the coming
term of court, tired of the degree of re-
straint put upon him last Thursday, and
started out to enjoy the beautiful au-
tumu day. He got his holiday all right,
and il proved a strenuous one, including
an automobile ride on which he had not
counted, but he got back, and will stay
in at recess for the rest of the term.
Carney was trusted to the extent OF
putting him out to wash windows at the
front of the county buildings. Guy
Cole, son of Jailer II. d. Cole and janitor
of the buildings, who was in charge in
the absence of his father, went after the
mail following the arrival OF the fore
noon trains. This gave Carney an op.
portunity to slip into the basement and
secure a pair of overalls TO take the
place of his striped prison trousers.
Thus attired he walked away.
Vigorous use of the telephone brought
out the information early in the after,
noon that man answering his descrip-
ton had been hanging around the rail-
road station at West Paris, and Gny
Cole and Deputy Sheriff Bcknell Of
Norway started for that place in L. s
Sessions automobile. At West Paris
they learned that the man had gone, and
they want on to Bryant's Pond. The
man was not there. but going back to
the spool mill Mr.. Cole learned that he
had been there, in fact, that when the
auto went by he was in the engine room
of the mill inquiring the way to the
house of man who lives mile or two
out.
Following up this clue, the party
overlook their man in the road near TIT
Grand Trunk quarry, and brought hin
in. Modern inventions, like the tele
phone and the automobile, seem to make
the way of the transgressor still harder

Corporation Treasurer Elected.

Little time was taken up with the vii
lage corporation meeting Friday evening,
and only few voters were present. j..
FL. Bean was elected moderator.
The first business was to choose a
treasurer of the corporation to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of Frank A.
Shurtleff. For this 10 ballots were cast,
all for Charles Fl. Howard.
The other article in the warrant relat-
ed to the matter of police and the raising
of money for that purpose. Chairman
r. N. Hall of the corporation assessors
stated that the appropriation of 500
made at the annual meeting was used
up, and if police were to be employed at
all more must be appropriated. On the
ground that constables were always
available in case of need, a motion was
made to pass over the article, but this
was defeated after some discussion, and
the sum of S25 was then raised, to be ex-
pended under the direction of the assess
ors, and placed in next years assess
ment. The principal discussion OF the
issue was informal, and came after adj
iournment.
