TAMPER WITH
LIGHT WIRES
Two Held for Grand Jury
Scene in Court.

Two cases ta which Dennis Burns
and Theodore Smith we're charged
with interfering with electric hgnt
lines of the Public Service Electric
Company we're turned over to the
grand Jury last night by Recorder
Kehoe. after the former challenged
William chamberlain, superintend-
emit for che complaining company,
and declared he would repeat the Of
tense. The defendants said they
worked for ". p. Christofferson, an
electrician. and admitted they had
tempered with Public Service cleo
trio light lines.
Smith said he had pulled two
plugs from apparatus on a pole IN
Rector street at the orders of Fred
Lamb. a foreman for Christofferson.
Burns, a youth, said he had climbed
a pole ha King street where there
was something wrong with some
house service Zines and thereafter
had been asked TO try and locate the
break. He declared he volunteered,
climbed to the top of the pole and
pulled out tive plugs, one of which
he said was broken and crumbled to
pieces as he pulled 1t out.
Superintendent chamberlain saad
the defendants had no right to tam
per with she lighting apparatus. Re
corder Kehee maintained the same
opinion and stated there was no
doubt but that they had trespassed
on Public Service property. At this
iuncture a heated argument arose
between the Pubic Service superin-
tendent and young Burns. The lat
ter declared he would repeat the Of
Tense even II he, Chamberlain, stood
at the bottom of the pole he worked
on. Mr.. Chamberlain said he would
not and Burns replied he would. Mr..
Ohamberlatn asked Burns to step
outside, but tie refused. The court
stopped the controversy and said the
papers in the 8 would be sent to

For Indirect Benefits.
Even when the compIainants were
Informed that it made no difference
whether the sewer was petltloned
for by property owners or it was or

could not understand why they
should be assessed $3.50 indirectly

commissioners informed them that
the trunk sewer made the West size

former was q benefit to the commun-
ity in that section property owners
therein had to be assessed for 1t
whether directly on the line of 1t or
mot.
A number of the compliments ar
gued that, as there was no water line
IN West Side avenue, the sewer would
be of little use. Joseph Sambftskf,
who said he owned two lots In the
avenue. declared the sewer. was or
no use to him. Alexander Macorow-
ski, who owned four lots, claimed he
had paid for a sewer in Penn street
and declared the new line in West
Side avenue would be of little bene-
fit to him. Julius Hnat, owner OF
one lot, said the assessment was too
much. Mrs. j.. Duscik, also owner
of a lot, argued likewise. Andrew
Alberto, who said he owned two lots
there, declared the W was of no
use to him.
f. F. Fox was present to represent
holders of the W. c. Arnold tract.
The commissioners agreed as they
had paid assessments for another
sewer they should not be taxed for
the one in West Side avenue.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, whose total assessment for the
sewer will be $784, had no represen-
tatfve on hand. They were notified
as were the property owners, by post
Icard.
The commissioners, William P.
O'Hara, Mat Weirup and Justus Kali

per lot to be affirmed by the court.

Miner browns
In Kennebec.

Oliver Miner, young man about %
years of age, was drowned. about
noon, Thursday, while swimming in
the Kennebec river Just below the
dam But very little is known about
the accident, as Miner was in swim
ming alone. but a young lad named
Thibeau was in the water some dis
lance away.
Miner came to Augusta not long ago
from New Bedford, Mass. and had
been working in the card room of the
Edwards mill. The accident occurred
just before l o'clock and it is supposed
that the young man entered the water
too soon after eating dinner and was
taken with cramps.
He was swimming just above the
mill in comparatively quiet water and
where the depth in most places is said
to be less than Is feet. The last seen
of the unfortunate young man was
when lie had been carried out into the
swifted water not far from a small
island caused by the slow water.
William White. who tends the wheel
house, saw Miner in the water and
saw him go down or the last time.
The police officials were notified, as
was also Coroner Henry Plummer's
Office. officers Corbett and Dauteuil
with assistants spent the greater part
of the afternoon graphing for the
body, but without success.
