Bright Prospects
For Ice Carnival Z
With Horse Races.

Bright prospects for an ice carnival,
this winter, in which horse racing
will be the feature is being held out
by T.. w Hanks of this city. If the
venture mafcrializes, the horse lovers
of Maine viii see the greatest winter
racing Maine has ever been favored
with. The racing will be half mile
heats and viii be over a crescent track
which will be constructed for Mr.
Hanks by Cushman Walker of Halo
well and vii, be either above the dam
on tie Kcnnebec. at Lake Cobbossee-
contee or at Hallowell on the zee Hal
lowell is the most convenient place
tor ali hands, but the ice there is la
bic to be treacherous owing to the
current and tide.
The ice is always safe. If anywhere,
above the dam which is point in IA
vor Of that locality. A number OF
horsamen have suggested the lake ana
advance as an argument III support
Of constructing the track there tue
fact that il is about half way between
Augusta and Winthrop and at the
same time fully as convenient tor Lew
iston horsemen to reach.
Mr.. Hanks claims many advantages
for the crescent track, the principal
one .eing that spectators can assem-
lie along the coneaNe space WITHIN
the crescent and witness the racing
for the entire length of the track,
privilege which a straight away track
does not afford.
Purses averaging 5000 each will be
hung I'D for the several events and
this will attract horses from all over
New England. Accommodations for the
horses is a matter that requires atten-
ton and with this important require
meut always in mind. Mr.. Hanks
states that he has Just the faintest
hope that the surface of Capital Driy-
ing rark can be gotten into condition
for the races. If so, it is conceded that
no other place would prove anywhere
noar as desirable for holding the
three-davs winter meet. Mr.. Hanks
will hold consultation with Cush'
man Walker in a few days and settle
the matter of location.
When it is recalled that the race at
Winthrop last winter, attracted more
than 1000 people, although there was
bet one race worth the mentioning
and that for purse of but $780, it can
be safely figured that meeting such
as is in prospect would draw thou
sands Of horsemen from this as we'll
as adjoining states.

SIX CHILDREN AND
HUBBY NO MAGNET 7
Arraigned on Charge of Neglect
ing Home to Cad
Around.

Six children and a husband had so
little hold on the heartstrings of Mrs.
Lily Schmehl, of Plum Point lane, that
she was arraigned in the Third Pre-
cinct Police Court today on complaint
of Jared w Kimball, Of the Children's
Aid Society
The charge against the young-look-
ing woman was that she would leave
her husband and children to satisfy
her own vagaries, going off in search
of amusement alone.
Mr.. Schmehl has been employed for
many years by the Thatcher Furnace
Company. He bought a home on which
he paid $500, but according to Mr.
Kimball the home and money are gone
because Of the recklessness Of Mrs
Sehmehl. Her worst habit, according
to Mr. Kimball. is that she leaves her
home at night and allows her family
to suffer and want Complaints have
been made several times within the
past two years and finally Mr.. kim
bail resolved to bring the woman to
court.
"She has made many promises, said
Mr. Kmball, "to behave herself, stop
drinking and take care of her six chill
dren, and just as many times as she
has promised she has broken her word,
1t will be a good thing to give her a
little while behind the bars to sober up
and think it over. I expect the father
to bring some of the younger children
to me. He. asked me to take care of
them. He is the most patient man
with wife like that that l ever saw"

right to sign the petition.

SLAYER is
TRACKED
Is Followed TO Within
One Block OF His
HntnaM


The police believe thes Shave tracked
the slayer of Charles Korsl1e to within
a block of his home The last seen of
him to their knowledge was at Silk
and Summit streets.
Korske, it was learned today was
struck by stranger to whom he was
acting the part of Good Samaritan. Ac-
cording to the police. the fugitive was
drinking in a saloon in Springfield
avenue near High street and became
intoxicated Korske wanted to take
him home. and prevailed upon him to
leave the saloon. They had only taken
a few steps when the intoxicated man
grew boisterous and struck Korske
when the latter tried to subdue him.
In escaping the assailant went up
Market street TO Bank, where he
stopped a man and asked him for a
cigar Upon being refused he went
into saloon nearby, but he was so
drunk the bartender would not sell
him anything.
In the meantime Korske's widow and
her four children are destitute and
without means of support at SO Nichol-
son street.
1t was first thought that korske was
struck to the street because he resent
ed being accidentally jostled by pc
destrian. The blow that killed Korske
was within sight of the Court House
and in view of hundreds of pedestrians.
Pedestrians at first thought that the
effect of the blow was trivial, as the
victim rose to his feet and went home.
He told his wife that his head hurt,
but refused to permit her to call a
doctor. Later he lapsed into a semi
conscious state and was hurried to the
City Hospital, where he succumbed to
a fracture of the skull a short time
after his arrival there.

HIT BY FRIENDS
AUTO; MAY LIVE
Business Man Run Down as He
Stepped Back to Avoid
Trolley.

To recognize in brief fraction of a
second that the man he was just about
to unavoidably run down and injure
was warm business friend and yet be
powerless to stop the auto in time Is
the experience suffered by Charles
Buchanan, of 81 Pacific street, whose
auto hit Harrison S. Eveleth, of Ss9
Broad street, at Broad and Green
streets last night.
Mr.. Eveleth, who is in the City Hos
pntal in serious condition, is manager
for the Speciality Paper Box Company,
of 1S1 Chestnut street. and only few
days ago he sold horse for his COM
pany to Mr.. Buchanan, who conducts
coal ANA wood yard adjoining the box
company plant.
The accident happened as Mr.. Eve
leth was crossing the street to put let
ters in a mail box. He was inspecting
the inscribed addresses and was slow
In noticing an approaching street car.
He stepped back suddenly to avoid 1t
and Mr.. Buchanan's auto hit him.
Mr.. Buchanan jumped out of his ma
chine and picked up his friend, who is
believed to be suffering from broken
bones and severe contusions In the
auto with Mr.. Buchanan was his Wife,
and he denies that he was going at high
speed.
Only two months ago the wife of the
injured man died.
Mr.. Eveleths gold watch, which was
knocked out of his pocket, stopped at
the exact minute he was hit, 9:57
o'clock.
Mr.. Buchanan furnished bond of
$500 for his appearance before the
grand jury and he was paroled
