FINE BLOCKS BUILT
At SKOWHEGAN
More New Homes Than
Any Previous Year
Some Dwelling Begun Almost Every
Week In 1909.

There has been considerable build
ing done in Skowhegan in the last
year. 1t is true that there has been
quite a number of blocks built tc
L ke the place of those destroyed by
hres. but the number of dwelling
houses put up in the last year is con-
sidered as being essentially a result
of prosperity.
Skowhegan has always prided her
self ON having good business blocks
The town his. without doubt, suffer
ed more from fires in the last few
years than any other town in the
State. These fires have taken out
some of the best blocks but in ev-
ely instance they have been replaced
by up-to-date modern ones.

es. These buildings are now.replaced
with up-to-date blocks. Morrison e.
Mcclellan have completed their new
block which is of handsome design
with three stores on the lower floor
and offices on the second floor. The
block is 90 feet deep and the front
age is IS feet. L. l.. Morrison has
also built brick building in the rear
of the above mentioned block, part OF
which is occupied by his rug factory.
The ground floor Is used by John
0Reiley as bottling shop.
NEW FIRST NATIONAL BANK
HOME AND GOULD BLOCK.
One of the handsomest blocks to
be built in Skowhegan is the new
home of the First National Bank
which is nearing completion and will
be occupied in August OF this year.
The design of the block is superb.
The material is white stone and
granite. There will be lighted
dome on the block and on the front
over the door will be large clock.
The building occupies plot OF
ground 371a by 78 feet.
The Gould block which contains

more care taken in its building, and

structural beauty The stores in the

NEW MUNICIPAL BUILDING.
No building has ever been erected
in Skowhegan that the town is proud
er of than it is of its Municipal build
ing which was completed in the early
part of 1909 1t took about four

ed his block on the corner of Court
and Water streets and both the Off
ces up stairs and the stores on the
first floor are up-to-date in every
way.
With all the building that has been
going on in the last few months on
the business streets Of SkoWhegan.
perhaps few realize that more dwell
tng houses have been built in the
town i'll the last year than ever before
II one year, yet it is 90. Up until
within few months there seems to
have been a boom in the residential
districts. There was hardly week
during 1909 that Il new dwelling
house Was not started in SkoWhegan.
A fact too that is worthy OF notice
is that d large number OF these nous
es have been built by the mill hands
and what are termed as day laborers
HeW spirit OF cOntentment seems 70
have come over the people here. This
is presumed 20 be due 10 the steady
work that is assured them most Of
the time in the different mills and
factories in SkoWhegan.
FRANK W.BUCKNAM'S RESIDENCE
One of the handsomest residences
built in Skowhegan the last year is
that Of Frank w. Bucknam on Dyer
Hill. Madison avenue. II is unusual
IN It's design, being of red brick and
cement 1t is of the English style
cottage house. 1t is fitted with all
the modern conyeniences and unlike
any other house in Skowhegan every
room opens into hall. 1t is estimat-
ed that the house cost about $4,000.
Another house that adds beauty to
Madison avenue, built in 1909, is that
OF j. II. Mathews a Son, a large two
story house 1t is on what Is known
as Somerset park near the fair
grounds and is the best residence in
that part of Skowhegan. There is
only one other house In Skowhegan
OF the same style, that being the
residence OF w b. Whittier on Madi-
son avenue. 1t is estimated that this
house cost about $4,000.
The most costly residence that has
been built recently is that OF eX-
Sheriff Clyde II. Smith. who pur-
chased the old homestead OF the late
o. h. Bachelor. Mr.. Smith has re-
built this, all the house having been
torn down except part OF the
framework. The residence as built
by Mr.. Smith is of Colonial style. The
underpinning is OF cement blocks
this being the first construction OF
its kind ever done in SkoWhegan. The
foundation of yerandas and porte
eochere is of ledge stone and the
yeranda floors are of red brick.
There have been a large number OF
IL, IL,
village in the last year About eigh-
teen of these have been built on the
north side of the river.

dia Ann married and settled in homes
of their own. AS David was such a
terrible feeder" and somewhat lazy
they did not want him around.
He moved into a deserted timber
camp where he spent most of his
time playing about the river and sub
sisted on wild onions, clans, fish,
wild ducks eggs and berries. When
winter came he would visit the tim
Der makers and hunters camps and
Il the settlers cabins along the
river.
BED WAS 20 FIT. LONG.
One winter the snow came down
early and the cold was intense. In
February the snow got so deep that
the timber makers managed to get
their teams to their homes and were
blockaded by snow for six weeks.
Snowshoes and hand sleds were the
only means of conveyance.
David retired to his camp and sub
sisted on vension which he secured
by catching the deer in the deep snow.
His beloved river was covered deep
With snow, but he had good supply
of crooked roots. stones, fish-heads,
shells and pieces of logging chains to
play with and was happy and con
tented.
For a bed he had an old camp
spread about 20 feet long and S feet
wide. When he wished to retire he
would unrol this great blanket anG
go to the farthest corner of the camp,
lay down and take one corner in his
teeth and roll toward the fire; thus
he would be rolled up like a mummy
and as snug as bug in a rug.
TRAGIC DEATH FROM BURNS.
One bitter night he piled the great
fireplace high with maple logs, rolled
up in his blanket and went to sleep.
A big blazing log up-ended from the
fire and fell across the sleeping
giants neck; before he could eXtri-
cate himself he was fatally burned.
He managed to get on his snowshoes
and go three miles away. AS no
medical aid could be procured he
died a few days later in great agony.
Before he died he requested that
his remains should be taken to his
bcyhood home on the ST. John river,
and be buried beside his parents who
were resting in the shade of a big
English willow. So one morning the
body was rolled in a blanket, lashed
on a big hand sled and two men on
snowshoes started for mis- old home
in New Brunswick some 30 miles dis
tant.
There are many people still living
in Aroostook who remember the
"Aroostook giant" David Buber.

APIMIN|O FEL|z AND
 HIS POCKET KNIFE
They Stirred Things up on Grant
 Street Yesterday.

Apiminio Feliz was arrested yester- day morning by Policeman Troutman at the corner of Fifth avenue and Grant street and will probably be transferred to the county jail today, charged with assault in an attempt to kill Jesus Araiza and all other resi- dents of the Third ward who chanced to cross his track between the time he saw red and his being taken into GUS tody
 Feliz and Araiza have been on friendly terms and FeliZ at times has been entertained by AraiZa as his his guest at AriaZa's humble abode on West Grant street. Yesterday morning however, FeliZ appeared unin- vited and under the influence of Ari- Zona moonshine Araiza insisted po- litely that FeliZ should make himself scarce and not impose his undesirable presence on a respectable gentleman at such an unseemly hour or sab bath morning, or words to that effect. Feliz decided to go but before his de- parture he took out his pocket knife and slashed across Araiza's right shoulder The wound made was only d trivial one but he seemed to think he had done a good job and thereafter it was up to him to cut through every thing in sight.
 A lady was standing in a nearby house and he undertook to enter it but was frustrated, partly through the pre- ventiVe efforts of AraiZa and a long handled hoe. FeliZ then worked east on Grant street. All whom he met saved themselves by giving him the right of way. Finally he came to wire fence and undertook to cut that up with his pocket knife. He was mad enough at that juncture to eat nails but he had no nails. Then he tried to jump across a ditch, stumbled, and fell into it and John Ivy who was passing jumped on top of him.
 The marshal had been notified in the meantime and Officers Troutman and Perrin were sent to the scene Cf action, arriving about the time Ivy and Felix went into the ditch.
