A large number OF our citizens
have just returned from Florida
where they have been attending the
second trial of T. S. Glover for the
murder of Edwin S. Rawl. Il will
be recalled hat M. Rawl was shot
at a lumber camp known as Alec
about one year ago; and from the
statement of the only eye witness,
Allen Perry, a South Carolina boy,
the killing was without legal just:fi-
cation. However, there was snother
mistrial in the case, the jc:y s,>nL-
ing nine to three. 50 we age inform.

The friends and relatives of Mr..
Rawl, who have been to Florida or

CITY MISSION READY
 FOR THANKSGIVING GIFTS.
Those Received and Distributed for
 EvangeIists Regarded as Specials.

Since Wednesday last a few addi- tional gifts have been received from Norwich people on account of the day of rejoicing and these and practically all of the other things received at that time, with the exception of clothing have already been distributed by the City Mission.
 The fruits and vegetables and gre- ceries and canned goods have been put into fifty or more families and Satur- day night nothing of all this generous store remained at the United Workers rooms.
 The clothing will be given out day by day, as need arises.
 The friends of the City Mission are advised that these gifts have been re- garded as specials, and have been treated as such. In all this the United Workers have acted simply as distrib- uting agents.
 The regular Thanksgiving dinner programme is now being taken up. Be- sides the fruit and vegetables and del icacies and money expected from the schools, there is need of money to pay for meat and also for tea and coffee and sugar, unless these latter articles are contributed.
 Friends of former years. together with many new ones. it is hoped, will contribute.

HUNTERS GUIDE WAS
 SHOT THROUGH BACK
Mistaken for Deer by Another Guide Hopes for His Recovery Entertained Party Returns Home.

On Sunday the party of hunters who left here two weeks ago for the Maine woods returned, each having got deer but in addition there was an accident in the party which spoiled much of the pleasure. In the party were Reuben Potter of this city, State Attorney H. A. Hull of New London and c. w. Comstock,' Tryon Robertson and Ed ward Crawiey of Montville. They were at Knight pond. near Moxie, Me. It was dry and the trip was altogether unsatisfactory, although there was plenty of game there, and outside of the accident good time was enjoyed but that, coming as it did the middle of the first week, rather broke the spirit of the party.
 The accident was the shooting of one of the guides through the back, and he is now in a hospital at Lewiston and hopes are entertained for his recov- cry
 MT. Potter stated Sunday evening that his guide, Harry Robinson, had fired at a running deer bus missed Having followed the animal and notic- ing the moving of something in the brush, he fired without ascertaining that it was not deer, and struck John Durgin, who was guide for Major Hull in the small of the back. They were about 75 yards apart. The wound was a bad one but missed the backbone, all though it tore a frightful hole in the mans body as it came up, leaving wound about four inches in diameter. 1t having been mushroom bullet. His condition called for quick action and he was carried on a stretcher about two miles and doctors were summoned by special train from Bingham. They arrived in four hours and gave him such attention as they could and later he was taken to the Lewiston hospital, who're he was seen on Saturday. He was then resting as comfortably as possible and hopes were held out for his recovery. He is a most capable guide and about 34 years old
 On Friday evening H. F. Palmer and Joseph M. Burdick returned from three weeks stay in Maine, being at Spencer pond. Each secured two deer and MT. Palmer is to have the antlers of large buck weighing 200 pounds which he shot mounted. Owing to the warm weather no deer was brought home.
