The business of the Thursday morn
ing session of the municipal court
consisted of the settlement of a little
difficulty which existed between two
women and which was somewhat of
the nature of a family affair. The
respondent in the case was Mary Cor
don, and she was in court TO answer to
warrant sworn out against her by
Statira Gordon and charging her with
the larceny of half dozen sheets,
three tablecloths, a broadeloth coat,
white sateen waist ami two bottles of
vanilla: the total value of which was
said to have been $11.50. Mary was
represented by NJ. E. Sawtelle. and
through her counsel waived reading
OF the warrant and pleaded not guilty.
When the matter was taken up for
trial everything was eliminated from
the case except the sheets. and when
the evidence had been gone over the
court held that Mary was not guilty
she was accordingly discharged

Hospital, Thursday Evening.
The Other Convict, Reynolds, Also
Heading That Way.

The mystery regarding the where
ahop:s of the two insane convicts,
Clarence II. Conant and Frederick
Reynolds, who made their escape from
the criminal insane building at the
Maine Insane hospital last Sunday
night by letting themselves down to
the ground from third story window
by means of their bed clothing. was
partially solved, Thursday evening. by
the receipt by DR.. H. w Miller. super
intendent of the institution. of a mes
sage from Mrs. Frederick Wescott of
Pennington, mother Of Conant, telling
of her sons arrival at his home in that
town
The message stated that Conant ex-
pressed his willingness to return TO
the hospital, but DR. Miller commune
Gated with the sheriff at Pennington
requesting him to take the Young man
into custody and to bring him To Au-
gusta Friday. The message TO DR.. Mil
Ter also stated that Conant gave out
the information that the older man,
Reynolds, was also on the way to
Pennington, and was travelling under
the name of George Gardiner. If that
IS tile case 1t Is probable IIlaI lie Will
soon be taken.
The location of the two men in
Franklin county furnishes the reason
why the hunt for them. which had
been maintained since Monday morn
ing, was unsuccessful The hunt was
conducted wholly on the east side of
the Kennebec river, and ii is doubtful
if the men We're there at all, at least
after Monday night Pennington lies
about 40 miles northwest of Augusta
and if the two men made the trip on
foot they did not waste a great deal
of time on the way
In speaking of the escape Of the men,
Dr. Miller said Thursday evening that
he wished to correct a wrong impress
sion which had gone abroad and which
had caused some criticism of the hos
pital authorities for slowness in send
ing out notice of the escape. because
en- the contrary they acted promptly.
He stated that he notified City Mar
shall Fletcher at o'clock Monday
shortly after the discovery
of the break. and sent a crew of men
out on the hunt soon after.

Baldheaded Men
Ignorance of the Hair Causes Much

Early piety doesn't cause badness

a baldhead is a sign of great intellect.
Such, however, is not the case Ninety

A crusade will shortly be inagurated
by the authorities against the unli-
censed dogs of the city, and all that
are not saved by the payment of the
tax required by law will be disposed
of. The number of dogs reported by
the assessors at the time of their can
vass of the city last spring was 4S5,
and the books of the city clerk show
that the number of licenses which
have been paid in is 203. which would
indicate that there are 1872 dogs
which have not been licensed 1t is
thought that the unlicensed dogs will
exceed that number, as it is probable
that some of the dogs were not found
by the assessors. and then the dog
