ALBERT BOWMAN WiGGIN.
Native of Vassalboro, Colby Graduate
and so Years a Teacher

Many people during the last few
years. must have noticed among the
| readers at the Boston Public library, a
white haired clear eyed, erect. alert
man, one OF the most appreciative and
interested of those who benefit by that
great institution. and very proud of the
| fact that he seldom found himself in
company which contained one older
than himself.
Albert Bowman Wiggin was born in
Vassalboro, Me.. Jan. 10. 1920. He was
graduated at Colby College in 1913. and
at the time Of his DEATH July u, was
the oldest living graduate. For 50
school years he taught, chiefly in
Maine and New York. usually in his
own schcol. sending hundreds of earn
est young men and women to college or
preparing them directly for their life
work. many Of whom have done dis
tinguished service
Mr.. Wiggin since retiring from
teaching, continued his student life. for
it's own sake: always active in church
work, he always stood for what is no
BILE and fine. his beautiful Christian
life was an inspiration to those who
came under its influence. The recent
heat was the indirect cause of his
death. and before he could rally from
the prostration. paralytic stroke
came from which he did not recover
He died at North PepperelI. Mass, on
a little farm lately purchased, where
he had q few weeks of the keenest en-
joymcnt
Three daughters. Mrs. Henry Reed
of Benton Falls, Me, and Frances. S.

TO the institution at about 1880 Fri
day forenoon. having been brought
over from Pennington by Deputy
Sheriff Eaton of Franklin county.
They were accompanied by Mrs. Wes-
colt.
Conant was not at all averse to re-
turning to the hospital and seemed
to be relieved that he had got back.
He was not inclined to say a great
deal regarding his experiences of the
past five days, or in regard to the COM
panfon of his flight from the hospital.
Conant was committed to the hospital
I'm 1909, having been transferred from
the Maine State prison. where he was
serving a term of five years for break
ing and entering. He was committed
to the prison Oct. 5. 1908.

thought that in all probability he had
vacated this part of the country and
was probably heading for the Cana

the Bangor road about two and one
half miles north of the city. a posse
of men from the hospital was immedi

would be secured. but up to a late
hour no report had been received as
to the result of the hunt.

New York. July 21.-R. G. Dun &
Cos. Weekly Review of Trade tomor-
row will say:
Trade continues quiet. but conditions
are essentially sound. Better weather
throughout the crop area has largely
relieved the apprehension about the
staple crop and lower temperatures
in the large cities have helped gen
eral business, especially retail lines.
Selling agents in the cotton goods
market have cut prices on goods To
stimulate the movement in all accumu-
lations of odd lots. A drastic revision
in bleached cotton, following the re-
moyal of restriction on staple prints.
adds to the uncertainty. The volume
! of curtailment is increasing. Experts
trade is still favorable and stocks are
| relatively light. Dress goods and
fnen's wear merchandise are about
opening their new spring lines and
prices generally show considerable re-
duction, but buyers are not ready to
| proceed. at the new quotations and
most of them are ordering sample
pieces only or very triling in Supplies.
This lack of anticipation is greatly
hampering the mills and curtailment
continues large. but sentiment is stil
healthy because of the certainty that
stocks will shortly need replenishment.
Conservatism is displayed by whole
salers in the footwear markets al
though the movement is expected 20
increase buyers are quite numerous in
the Boston market There is a fairly
steady volume of business with local
lobbers. Leather is little more ac-
tive. Prices are very strong and the
lack of large sales is partly due to the
