Speaking of accidents. Judge Hunter
had a few mishaps the other night
when some one called him out OF bed
at l a. m. The stairway is unprotected
and the court very thoughtlessly stepp-
ed off and backed his shins in the
dark. He then took up a search for a
match and, having, succeeded in finding
one. let the lamp and very cautiously
proceeded downstairs, but being little
near sighted, het set the lamp too far
over the edge Of the table and gravita-
ton got in its work, and now he needs
a new lamp. He then resumed his
search for matches, but being unable
to find one, was obliged TO TRANSACT
his business in the dark. 1t is hard
to contemplate what would have hap
pened to any luckless evil-doer who
might have come before him at that
time Hanging would have been light

Anglers Crown Point.

Crown Point breathed a Sigh or re-
lief yesterday that the auto races and
all their attendant discomforts were
ended Many of the citizens say, never
again; while others are nOn-commital
on the subject of holding other races
in the future. The attitude assumed
by certain Chicago papers, in which
they discouraged and belittIed every
thing in Crown Point, charging extor-
ton and exorbitant prices for things
cited the wrath of many Crown Point
citizens, and certainly has done great
harm in getting consent for any fu-
ture race that might be run here.
Taking everything into considera-
ton, the auto race has not been the
god-send to Crown Point and Lake
county as some say it has. but to have
a few cub reporters from Chicago pa
pers supply the same with the sensa-
tional, lurid and lying stories that have
been printed recently, has gone against
the grain, and has given the town an
uncalled for and undesirable black eye
from which it may never recover.

STATE BOARD OF ARBITRATION.
Hearing on Measure Approved by State
Labor Commissioner.

Ing Tuesday afternoon on the bill in
trouuced by Representative BealS of
Auburn, providing for the appointment
OF a state board of arbitration, which
upon request would endeavor to set
tie differences which might arise be-
tween employers and labor. Commits
sioner of Labor Lyons appeared in fa-
vor Of the bill and stated that in his
opinion such a board would do much
for the industrials peace of Maine. Had
such q board existed much of the Ia

year would have been aVerted Repre-

The bill was opposed by r. Fl. Bow
ditch of Old orchard as a member of
the Order Of Railroad Conductors. He
said that he had never read the bill,
but felt sure that the members of his
order would never consent to the sub
hitting of their differences to such a
board, as they had a grievance COM
mttee of their own. When the fact
that it was not compulsory upon them
to submit their differences to the board
he said that he didn't know as they
would object to other labor organiZa-
lions having the board. A. Turner of

posed the bill on the same grounds as
Mr.. Bowditch. He told the committee
that the organizations of railroad en-
ployes had always steered clear of
other organizations and padded their
own canoe.
The hill will be considered by the
committee later in executive session.

FRATERNITY HOUSES.
Question Of Their Exemption Argued
Before Taxation Committee.

Representatives of the board of trus-
tees of the University of Maine and of
the selectmen of the town OF Orono,
met before the committee on taxation
Tuesday afternoon and quarreled Wig
erously for over an hour. The trouble
arose over the bill to exempt fraternity
houses at all the Maine colleges from
taxation. A. j.. Rogers, formerly pro-
fessor OF political economy at the uni
versity, and DR.. E. N. Mayo appeared
for the selectmen and in opposition to
the bill w. r. Haines of Waterville,
president of the trustees, and Presi-
dent Fellows both urged its passage.
The right of the town to tax the fra
ternity houses is at present awaiting
a decision from the supreme court. a
test case having been put before that
tribunal by agreement.
Both Prof. Rogers and Dr. Mayo pre-
scented the towns side of the argument
at some length. They thought that
Orono was put to considerable expense
in one way and another, by reason Of
the university being there and that 1t
was manifestly unfair for the fraterni-
ty houses, which were owned by the
students. not to pay their falr snare
of the taxes. They cited the expense
of maintaining the highway from the
village through the university campus
as being a real hardship upon the IN
habitants and gave other reasons,
which they considered perfectly good
why the exemption should not be made
Mr. Haines entertained totally diff
ferent ideas. He said that. out of the
IL fraternity houses, all but two of
them were on land owned by tie
State. The university, moreover, guar
antees the loans by which the money
to build them is raised. Although they
are nominally controlled by the stu
dents. the title to them would revert
to the State should payments on the
loans be- defaulted. In addition 20
this they saved the State large sums
in that dormatories would otherwise
have to be provided for the use of the
students.
President Fellows said that he hadn't
expected to attend the hearing but
that he had come in because Mr..
Haines had told him of the attempt
on the part of the selectmen to collect
taxes from the boys. So far as the

PROTECTION OF WATER SUPPLY
Board Of Health Bill Discussed Before
judiciary Committee.

The State Board of Health'S bill for
the protection of water supply was dis
cussed Tuesday afternoon before the
comr1ittee on judiciary. This bill,
which contains many of the provisions
of the Massachusetts law for the pro-
lection of the sources OF water supply
gives general power to the state Board
of Health to make rules and regula-
tions for the protection Of the supply
in Maine. including the regulation of
tho building of summer hotels and cot
tages on the lakes and streams from
which water for drinking purposes is
taken.
Dr. c. d. Smith. president of the
State Board of Health and Supcrin-
tenGont Of the Maine General hospital
at Portland. who was III charge Of the
case Of the proponents of the measure
admitted in answer to questions that
the bill would give the board arbitrary
power for the control of the sanitary
conditions of the water supply, and
that the board would lave under the
provisions of the proposed law, power
to forbid boating and swimming on
pond, and lakes. He added that the
board would not exercise such author
itv in an arbitrary manner, unless 1t
was absolutely necessary to maintain
supply Of pure water.
Herber- NJ Heath of Augusta OPP
POSED the bill because Of the broad
and arbitrary powers it proposed to
give the state Board of Health and
suggested that the people Of the state
had sufficient remedy in the injunction
process. He alluded to the hardship
that such a bill might work at Lake
C,,bbosseecontee, where there were
large number of cottaGers. In touch
ing unon the question Of the water sup
plv at Sebago lake Mr.. Heath stated
that the water supply in that lake was
fully protected by a special statute and
that the expenditure of $1,000 year by
the trustees OF the district for pa
troll service would give Portland all
the protection it needed.
Strong objection to the bill came
from the residents of China and Vas
salboro, who feared that If the Dill was
enacted into law the State would for
bid the building of cottages. the TAX
ing of water except by the Rennebec
Water District and boating ana swim
ming on China lake. one of the resi-
dents of China declared that if the
bill was enacted it would be possible
to forbid the farmers to water their
cattle in the streams that feed the
lake.
In opening the hearing DR. Smith
quoting from the vital statistics of the
New England states. said that the ty-
phoid epidemics in Maine in recent
wears he'd been traced to the water
supply.
