Bangor, Me, Aug 1S.-Tonight the
Bangor police are searching for Il
tramp named John Sullivan, who is
wanted in connection with the death
of Robert r. Kelley of Mars Hill,
whose body was found in the river
here Tuesday and who was supposed
to have been drowned.
Sullivan was arrested Tuesday af-
ternoon for drunkenness, and this
morning was discharged and disap-
peared. Since then it has been learn
ed that Sullivan was in company WITH
Kelley on Monday and it is recalled
that among his possessions when
searched by the police was a 500 Con-
federate bill The dead mans brother,
Gordon Kelley of Mars Hill, today in
formed the police that his brother had
in his wallet 800 Confederate bin
and he also identified as having been
worn by the dead man a cap that was
found in Sullvan's pocket and which
he left at the police station.
Contrary to previous reports, the po-
lice say tonight that there were two
cuts upon Kelley's forehead and that
it would have been difficult if not i'm
possible for him to have fallen into the
river at or near the spot where his
body was found.

Busy Village on Upper Kennebec Has Distinguished
|. Gathering, Including Gov. Ferna|d-- Inter-
esing Program Sketch Of the Town.

Scion, Me-, Aug. 1S.-(SpeciaD.-
with ceremony BETTING the occasion
Scion today celebrated the centennial
anniversary of her organization as a
town. The entire day was given over
TO the observance of the anniversary,
Somerset county joining freely to make
the celebration one worthy of the
nroud history which has been made
during the decades Of the past.
Every one of the big audience Of
hearers thrilled with pride as the his
torical address was read by Mrs. Jen-
ME Whipple Green, portraying the
early struggles of pioneer days and
the proud part borne by the pioneer
residents in their country's struggles
in the wars for the establishment and
preservation OF the great American
Union. The people of Scion have just
cause to be proud of their ancestors
and the deeds they have done.
The town was Incorporated Feb. IS,
1909, and organized on March u fol-
lowing. 1t now has a population of
about 1000 and an estate valuation Of
$780,, 1886 1t is situated on the east
bank of the kennebec river and was
included in the original grant of the
Sagadahoc territory In 1891 it passed
under the jurisdiction of Massachusetts
Bay and in 1882 William Hilton came
from Wiscasset and settled here.
Today's celebration will long be re-
membered not only in Scion and SOM
erset county, but throughout Maine,
for the people celebrated with the same
enthusiasm that their ancestors fought
and endured hardships to open up 4
new country many years ago, in the
dim, distant past. The parade was
FOne of the best ever seen in this sec
|tion and was a very prominent feature
0f the forenoon's observance. Few
were the organizations, industries and
merchants of the town who were not
represented in the line. The line Of
march covered every street of import
ance in the village and every house
was handsomely decorated, the nation
al coors floating proudly from every
Iresidence and place of business.
