BATES COLLEGE.
Most Successful Year in Athletics in
Colleges History.

Lewiston, Me, May 2g.-(SpcciaD. -
Bates has just completed the most sue
cessful year that she ever experienced
in track athletics. All the students and
supporters OF the college believe that
much of the success is due to the able
coaching of Coach Jim" Lathrop and
the persstency of Capt Blanchard No
matter what the weather conditions
were these two men could always be
found on the athletic field working with
the various candidates They were ably
repaid for their efforts when the team
won the championship of the State at
Brunsw wick. on MAJ 11th and by get
ting fourth place in the New England
meet held at Springfield last Satur-
day, Capt blanchard is the only point
winner that will be lost by graduation
and Bates ought 10 make as good
showing next year as she has this year
Capt. Blanchard's ten points will be
missed but Woodman. 'l3. who has
been hurdling close W to Blanchard's
time, ought to be able to take first
place in both hurdles unless some new
material comes into the State, next
year. Frank G, Adams, '13. of Belgrade
has ably managed the team, this year,
and muen credit is due him.
The tennis team left, Wednesday
noon, for Orono, where they will COM
pete for the championship of the State.
The team has had very little practice.
this year, on account of the weather
conditions in this section of the State.
but as all of the College teams have
had the sama hard luck the tourna-
ment should prove very interesting.
Two members of last years team were
graduated, last June, and Paul S. Nick
erson, IS, of Medford, Mass, and Har-
old c. Alley. 10. of Auburn will make
up the team with Capt Harry A. Wood
man, 10, of Portland and Robert L.

FAIRFIELD CoLORED MINISTER
p WILL FACE AccUsERs-WAs
. PLACED UNDER $4,000.

Fairfield, May 13.-Rev. l. w. Bess,
pastor of Bethel A. M. E. church OF
this city, who was arrested Saturday
afternoon on the charge OF rape, will
be given a trial Wednesday before
Justice David B. Wilson. He was
brought before Justice Wilson Satur-
DAY afternoon when he entered plea
of not guilty and was placed unoer
So, 900 bonds; failing to find bondsmen
he was sent to Jail to await MS trlal.
Rev. Bess stands charged with one
of the most terrible crimes which mas
been committed in Fairfield for many
years. His accuser Is Mrs. Maggie
Messick, we'll known resident Of this
city for many years. She is sixty-one
years of age, frail and intlrm and lives
alone next door to the Bethel A. M. q.

According to Mrs. Messick the at
tack upon her was made about IL
O'Clock Sunday night, May 5, and she
positively Identifies Bess as her as
sailant. She gave the alarm soon az
ter the attack took place and offlcers,
neighbors and physicians gathered at
her home and heard her story. After
examination was made by physicians
they corroborated her, story as to
the assault and Bess was brought be-
fore her when she declared he was the
guilty man He strenuously denied the
accusation and was allowed to have
his liberty while the officers set about
securing additional evidence in the
case.
The officers have kept the case as
quiet as possible, owing to the fact
that there was very bitter feeling
against the negro as soon as 1t was
known that he was accused by Mrs.
Messick The feeling has quieted down
somewhat and it Is now supposed that
there will be no trouble Of any kind.
Bess is married and has lad charge
Of the A. NJ. E. church here for over
year He has up to this time ap-
peared to be quiet and unassuming
man. Mrs. Bess who was visiting in
