panions Are Rescued.
The Man Sank While APPARENT y
Swimming Safely to Shore.

John Chamberlain of Oakland, aged
about 80. was drowned in Messalonskee
lake Monday afternoon. Chamberlain
with two companions. named Henry
Knox and Francis Bickford, both of Oak
land, left the car barns in row boat
early in the afternoon. When they ar
rived at North Belgrade station they left
the boat, going across the fields into the
country Returning several hours later,
they launched their boat preparatory to
returning to Oakland. When about 40
feet from the shore the boat, from some
unknown reason. capsized, throwing the
three occupants into the water. Their
cries for help reached the ears of several
men who were working nearby. The
latter rushed to the lake and found the
three men in the water.
Taking nearby boat the men went to
| the rescue of the three. When they
| reached Chamberlain they found that he
was swimming TO the shore. Leaving
him they went to Knox and Bickford and
succeeded in bringing them to the shore
rim safety.
| In the meantime Chamberlain had gone
to the bottom and 4 diligent search to
recover the body ended in failure. Knox

In Speech at Grant Day Dinner of Americus
Club at Pittsburg--Says Record of State
Department is One Which He Re-
cards with Greatest Pride.

I be Of the utmost Importance that while
our foreign policy should not be turned
hairs breadth from the straight path
of Justice. it may be we'll made to in
clude active intervention for our mer-
chandise and our capitalists opportunity
for profitable investments which shall
inure to the benefit of both countries con-
cerned. There is nothing inconsistent
with the promotion of peaceful relations
and the promotion of trade relations.
Among the direct contributions to the
cause of peace l am glad to call your at
tention to the fact that Secretary Knox
has broached to the powers a project for
evolving a general court of arbitratal
| justice out of the theory of the prize
| court convention drawn up at the last
| Hague conference. The proposal has had
a most sympathetic reception from many
! of the powers sufficient, we hope, to se-
cure its success. and we feel assured that
tangible form and result in forum al
ways open to all nations having a conf
dence in the justice of their respective
causes which will make them willing to
substitute in the settlement of controver-
sizes the deliberate and righteous judg-
ment of an impartial tribunal for the
antiquated method of force.
ITO the record of a years accomplish
ments under Secretary Knox in our for
eign affairs. l think I may properly point
with pride. and yet with becoming mod
esty. for it is his work and not mine All
can claim is the merit of selecting him
for the task"

Bates College; 8===
N. II. State |

Lewiston, Me-, May 2.-(SpeciaD.-Bates
this afternoon defeated New Hampshire
State College here in a postponed game
by a score of 8 to l. The game was
rather slow and presented few exciting
situations. The work of the Bates pitch
ers. including both wildness and keen
ness, was commendabe. New Hampshire
was able to find Dennis, the Freshman
pitcher, for only one hit. Every man on
the Bates team hit safely at least once.
Both teams fielded cleanly.
The game presented a fair opportunity
to compare the relative strength of Bates
and Colby. Colby defeated New Hamp-
shire State by score of Z to with Roy
J Good and Fitzpatrick in the box for Col
by Dennis pitched seven innings for
| Bates and Captain Hartman pitched the
! last two innings.

SOLD HIS WIFE
For $40 To An Old Soldier and The,
Repented.

A peculiar case was presented to
Judge Shaw Saturday, in which a
Fairfield man stated that his wife had
left him and he thought that she was
being harbored in one of several places
in the city. This man solicited the aid
of the judge and the city marshal in
trying to locate his wife, but she was
at none of the suspected places. Since
then it has transpired that the Fair
field man had made out a bill of sale
Of his wife, during the 1irst part of
last week, to an old soldier for the
sum of $40 in cash. The old soldier
and the wife then disappeared and
the husband repenting of his sale has
since endeavored to locate the couple.

the college reclayed and graveled so
that now they are in first t-class condi-
ton for the meets that are going to be
held with the Massachusetts, Aggies

here on the courts of the college. The
second meet as arranged at present Is
that OF the Maine Intercollegiate Ten
mis- Association, which will be also
played at Waterville this year. AL
though Colby has several fast players,
she mas little hope of landing the
championship as the players are too
inexperienced. Several of the best
players of the last years team either
graduated or did not return to college
so that the team will be made up
mostly of new men. Dow and Young
will be the only old men on the team.

The coming report Of the federal
commission on immigration. which has
been investigating factory conditions

held at Atlantic City under the aus
pices Of the department of church and

'"rhe coming report of the immigra-
ton commission will startle the world

ganized and unable to force protective
measures by employers" declared Con-
gresham Bennett, who spoke on The

lowing his address Congressman Ben
net said he did not know whether the
