The members of the Maine Central
baggage room force had for fesy
minutes TUESDAY morning one Of tic
lipeliest times of their lives in fight
ing fire which started in the grass
on top of the ledge at the west side
of the tracks and about opposite tn
baggage room. and it WAS only BY
hard work and good luck that a ho-
blaze was averted. 1t is supposed
that the fire originated from Il spark
from the "shifter" as the engine had
been working there shortly before the
fire was discovered. Owing to the
steepness of the ledge it was difficult
to reach the fire from the roadbed and
the boys had to work on bank that
was nearly as steep but they got at
it and succeeded in beating it out. A
few feet above the spot where the fire
started is the carpenter shop of Tracy
& Metcalf. and had the fire reached
that building it is probable that there
would have been lively times in that
locality, but the nell in the shop gave
their assistance to the railroad men
and trouble in that line was aNerted.

$4,000 BIG FOUR CASH
Mrs. Ford TeSiitieS He Told
Her OF Emhezzlement.

Cincinnati, O., June l5.-The trial
of Edgar S. Cooke, on the charge OF
embezzlement from the Big Four rail
! way, dragged somewhat until Mrs
Jeanette Stewart Ford, the woman
in The case" was called to the witness
stand
Before she had testified more than
a few moments she startled the court
room by declaring that Cooke had
given her $4,000 in cash. She also
revealed the innermost secrets OF her
relations with the defendant so far as
the. Judge and attorneys would per-
/. nit. The money, Mrs Ford testified
was in packages.
Cooke would visit me at my fiat
two or three times a week, she said
Each time he would come he brought
, packages which | concealed in a trunk
Later | went to New York, engaged a
safety deposit box at the Bankers
Safe Deposit company in Wall street
and put the packages in it.
Cooke and | went to New York in
September, 1901. We went to- the
safety deposit vaults and opened the
packages and counted the money. II
came to $4,000, all in $40, $40, $50
and 500 bills"
! While you were in New York did
you have any talk as TO where this
money came from?" she was asked
Yes; from the Big Four was the
reply. Cooke explained how and why
he got it. He said other men were
getting it, and that when they let him
out he would just help himself"

The government having granted a
substantial increase in salary to a
majority of the rural mail carriers of
the country, it was to be expected
that some CRATER would pop up and
try to get rake-off out of it. The
expected has happened and this time
it is an editor the publisher of the
R. F. D. News at Washington, who
claims to have secured this increase,
and carriers are asked to contri butte
one dollar each to a fund for the
benefit Of the editor, to pay him for
his services. This would amount to
a total of $42, 200 and the postoffice
department has sent out a warning to
carriers not pay as the Increase would
have been made just the same, with
out his help.
