ing the closing day of the summer
term.
Supt Libby reports the farming con-
ditionS in Aroostook unusually fine.
The potato fields never looked better
ani the prospects of a big yield and
hence a successful season could not
lcok brighter. The farmers are already
selling their stock from the fields at
profitable prices and the good times
ahead make the business men of ArOos-
took county happy. The haying season
WAS unusually late this year owing to
the rains of the last few weeks so that
this crop is hardly harvested. He is
enthusiastic over the progressive spirit
of that county, mentioning especially
the fine school buildings and the great
attention that is being given to the
general betterment Of all educational
work.

are necessary. Where the rooms now
run the length of the building, the
new arrangement will allow of their
running the opposite way for the work

BLACK HAND THREAT
10 Manchester, N. H., Man Unless He
Gives Up $1,000 Cash.

purporting to be from the Black Hand
Society and decorated with an ominous
cross of bones in black ink. was placed
in the hands of the local police Saturday.
1t was received Saturday the cafe
owned by Joseph r. LaFlamme, and was
directed to the proprietor. Ernest La
Flamme who is the cashier of the place,
opened the letter and was astounded to
read the following:
Dear Sir-You are a mean cur. and
will burn your house unless YOU deposit
$1,000 behind your barn.
(SigneD BLACK HAND.
''X-Not later than Aug. 20
The date of the burning was evidently
an afterthought. as it was placed in the
form of a postscript The letter was
written in black ink. and just beneath the
signature was rude cross intended to
represent bones.
1t came through the mail with postage
due and Ernest LaFlarnme had to pay
two cents on it before he could read the
threat.
He at once handed it over to the chief
of police, who has since been working to
find the writer.
1t is not seriously regarded, but the po-
lice have a desire to know who conceived
the threatening note and intend to find
out.
