Pardons Granted.

At the meeting of the governor and
council on Thursday large number OF
pardon petitions were heard. Among
them were those of Willie Provost and
Gus Provost, Rumford boys, who were
serving sentence of ten months in jail at
Augusta for breaking and entering a
camp on Mooselucmaguntic Lake, the
sentences having been imposed at the
May term Of court in Oxford County.
The Provost boys were represented be-
fore the council by Attorney George A.
Hutchins OF Rumford, who stated the
case as showing that the boys were 80
situated that the only way they could
get shelter for the night was to break
into this camp, which they did. A par
don was promptly granted them.
Another case which was before the
council was that of James O'Connell or
Ramsey" O'Connell of Lewiston, who
was sentenced to three years in state
prison in the Oxford County court in o.
tober, 1910, for larceny from the person
of one Morey of Waterford, who lost bis
pocketbook at the door of q railroad car
at South Paris, on one of the days of the
fair. Two others, James Lery of Lewis
ton and one Morrill, of Augusta, received
the same sentence in the same case.
O'Connell's attorney was W. 81. Hines of
Lewiston, who was unable to be present
at the hearing. As the hearing had
twice been continued, County Attorney
Parker of Oxford County, who was pres
ent, was allowed to make bis argument
against the pardon, which he did with
force.
The council also granted pardons to
Willie P. Green of Barnard, serving a
twelve years sentence at Thomaston for
breaking and entering and assault with
intent to kill, and Martin P. Goliath,
proprietor of the Seeboomook House on
Moosehead Lake, serving sentence OF
three months in Jail for violations of the
liquor law.

One Of DR.. Kings Barns Burned.

About 8 o'clock Thursday morning 1t
was discovered that the barn on what Is
known az thu old town farm, In the south
part of the town of Paris, now owned by
DR.. Alfred King of Portland, was on fire.
The fire was first seen by Oscar w. Par
SONS from his home, and he and others
were at the place as quickly AZ possible,
but it was too late to save anything.
The house on this farm was burned a
number of years ago, while it was 0ccu-
pied by the town, and no other has been
built. The farm was later sold by the
town, and afterward came into the
possession of DR.. King, being carried on
in connection with the other farms which
he has bought in that section OF the
town.
There was a large amount Of crops and
OF her material in the barn, including at
least thirty.five tons of hay, large lot
of grain, a number of tons of fertilizer, a
gasoline engine and threshing machine
belonging to A. W. Walker & Son, and
other things. All is practically total
loss.
The cause of the fire Is not known.
There was heavy fall OF snow Tuesday
night and Wednesday morning, but there
were no tracks in the snow at the barn,
showing that no one had entered or left
il during the nearly twenty-four hours
from the end of the storm until the fire
was discovered. This would seem to
put tramps out of the question.

A November Idyl.
BY MARY MAXIM.

Ye call November bleak and dreary.
When the forests heart 10 laid bare,
when Nature seems bereft and weary,
With chill of winter In the air.
When fields In sombre garb are sleeping,
Meath skies that cherries seem; .
While faithful watch are the tall pines keeping
Ger meadow. DER hill and stream.
The naples gold and crimson splendor,-
But Yesterday seemed complete
And the song Of the woodthrush, so tender,
Are now but memories sweet.
And down by the swift flowing river,
In garments of brown, rich and deep,
TAN ferns In the chill breezes CULVER
And Sigh, as they lie down to sleep.
Yet there's charm In Noyember's sweet sadness
SURPRISING the glories Of May;
Tho there cometh no bird. note Of gladness
From the woodland, TO welcome the day.
Not cen budding springtime appsaleth.
Like the pathos Of fallen leaves,
Nor Summers gem casket revealetn
The treasures In garnered sneaves.
Though we sigh for the flowers, no more lending
Their glory. there's Infinite grace
In the birch trees 1.-THE, slender form, DenalDl
To the west winds fond embrace.
And strength In the giant oak. standing
Dismauted. against the SKY,
In sovereign majesty, commanding
Reverence, none can deny.
And tho the thrush's love.song at even,-
That for aye We fsin would keep
Brings the soul to the gates OF Heaven,
There's joy In the silence deep,
That folds, with tender caressing.
The brown earth to Its breast,
Breathes sweet benediction and blessing,
And whispers OF peace and rest.
Peace and resti the snow angels hover
Der tired Natures head.
Weaving blanket warm, to cover
Her sleeping children's bed.
nd for this sveet calm that enf,lds u,
For the psace that crowns our ANA,
We thank the hlest Giveb who holds us

o yes, we do sometimes, not often,
cross over the line that divides this town
from one adjoining. We do not claim to
be globe-trotter. We are not rival
nor an emulator of the Great American
Traveller, and yet we have travelled and
trotted some. Only the other day we
wandered away, not aimlessly, as far as
Mechanic Falls, just to break the
monotony of living in one place and
sleeping in one bed, and paying visit,
long delayed, to an old time school
mate and the wife OF his bosom, both of
whom are cousins in the second degree.
