head not more than four feet from the

SPARKS FROM MAINE WIRES.

Mrs Horace Wilson of Topsham report
ed to the police Saturday that sometime
after noon she had heard noise in the
rear of the house and upon investigation
discovered a man in the act of climbing
in the kitchen window. Mrs. Wilson
screamed and the man promptly took to
his heels and disappeared although not
before Mrs. Wilson had obtained a par
tial description of him. The police are
inclined to the view that he is one of the
band of yeggmen who are infesting that
vicinity and that he might possibly be
one of those who entered Dunning Broth
ers' livery stable early Saturday morning
and seriously beat up the hostler.

car struck the team throwing her out
and as she struck on her head and
shoulders she was rendered uncon-
scious. Mrs. Clough is very badly cut
around the head and also bruised con-
siderably on the body. Her condition
is considered very serious.

Jimmy. The police don't care IL We
sniff coke or eat morphine. What diff
erence does 1t make to them. anyway?
Dope fiends are harmless. They mostly
herd together and don't care what others
do.
I'VE would not mind il there was an
earthquake so long as it did not inter
fere with u.s. continued Jimmy. We
don't care for anything at all. Elections,
hot weather. killings. baseball-nothins
bothers us SO long as we get our dope.
Sure, there is d combine in this city.
l don't know who is the head of it. but
he hangs out somewhere in Seventh ave-
nue. or maybe it's Eighth avenue. Never
mind.
What he does is this: He gets a big
lot of the dope together, cocaine, I'll say.
And then he makes up small package
of it and walks down the street and
meets a man and he hands the package
to him. and the man slips him 80 Then
the man takes the coke and he divides
it up into IS bottles, then he goes out and
slips the IS to another man and he gets
SIS for them Then the man with the 8
bottles he goes home and divides each
bottle up into five smaller ones and sells
them for 80 cents apiece.
THE one who gets one of these small
bottles, he mixes something with the
stuff. 1 guess. and peddles it out in small
packages for as low as 20 cents each
And all down the line every body makes
a lot of money out of it.
Il don't suppose $40 worth of coke is sold
a day right over the counters in drug
stores in this city, mean to the coke
fiends, US people who have got to have 1t.
Nearly all of it is peddled right out Of
pocket her> and there. Some of the lucky
ones got prescriptions calling for coke.
and I myself got one that calls for NOR
phine. l can always get some of the
stuff if I got the price.
Some Of the fiends have lots of money.
Why. l know man that is rich and
takes as much morphine in a day as
do in week, and I can take my share Of
the stuff with any one. He married
woman about year ago and she had the
habit too. l think they married because
each knew the other had habit-hs
morphine and she coke. They sit to-
gether in restaurants and drink cham
payne by the quart and take their dope
between times. They always are happy

A HEALTHY GROWTH
Found In All Cities and Largest In
Smaller Ones.

Washington. Aug. 2S.-Careful though
unofficial analysis of the returns from
the 18th census on cities thus far an
nounced reveals the fact that the increas-
ed rate of urban growth for the past de-
cade over that of 1880. to 1900 has been
confined largely to places having a popu-
lation of less than $1,000. While there
has been a healthy increase universally,
in large majority Of cities exceeding
$1,000 the rate of the previous decade has
not been maintained. In no instance so
far has an actual loss been shown, and
present comparisons are only on the rate
of growth.

Recent Exploit of Two Pirate Recalls
Old. Palmy Days.

The two pirates who tried to capture
an Alaska Pacific liner, and indeed did
capture it for time, last Sunday
morning were of the same stuff as
the pirates of old. They took big
chance and their plan to get control
of a vessel. posses themselves of such
of the money aboard as they could
carry. beach her. and made their es-
cape was worthy of the laborious in
vention of a literary romancer who
had never been to sea and knew OF
its perils only from books. They were
two courageous rascals. and if West.
the one who brutally murdered the
undaunted captain. has really been
drowned. 1t is a pity. He deserved
more spectacular end. Presumably his
captured confederate will not live to
undertake another piratical venture.
The murder of the captain was das-
tardly. though probably. from the pi-
ratical point of view, it was inevitable.
Apart from that the pirate accom-
plished nothing. and their rapid-gun
fire was as futile as that of any pirate
in ancient melodrama. Yet If the cap
tain had not been shot down. West
and Wise would have compelled some
sort of respect. the kind that Is due TO
fellows who take a big risk to accom-
plish purpose: and they did succeed
in showing what might be done on
shipboard by rascals of their quality.

to see what you fellows can do on the
hurricane deck of broncho," Theo-
dore Roosevelt said today as a group
of cowboys, the hardest riders in the
West, gathered about him, mounted
on their horses.
Colonel Roosevelt saw all that the
wild West of today had to show him
in the way of deeds and skill and dar-
ing. and said that the spirit TO the
West was still alive.
AS Colonel Roosevelt watched the
cowboys at their work, heard the In
dian yell and saw the familiar sights
of more than 20 years ago, when he
was a plainsman. the spirit of it all
came over him again. and he climbed
down from the fiag-drapped reviewing
stand and mounted a big white horse
He galloped around the half-mile track
at Frontier Park and past the crowded
grlndstand, while cowboys yelled. In
dians gave their war whoop and the
rest of the crowd joined in a tremen-
dous shout. He diSmounted after one
lap, smiling his delight. and went back
to his place to see the rest of the fun.
There was no formality about Roose-
Welt today at Cheyenne. Every cow
boy who had drawn a years pay and
could get here, came. There were thou
sands of them. with good many cow
girls.
They came on horseback from miles
around. some of them from points hun
dreds of miles away. The streets were
thronged with men and women on
horseback in their picturesque attire
of many colCrs. There were good
many thousands of other persons, too
Eastern tourists and the. tradesmen
and plain farmers of the region. but
they got little attention. 1t was the day
of the old Wild West.
BY the time Colonel Roosevelt az
rived here, shortly after 2 o'clock this
morning, the celebration was we'll un-
der way. They met him at the station
with band and an escort of cavalry
men and then there was a parade Tho
