of priVateersmen, rogues and those
reformers who already were begin
ming to undermine the peace Of Louis
XVI.'s northern provinces. In the
pursuit Of these gentry, the governor
showed himself in earnest. Perhaps
his own sorrow at the rather sudden
death of his lady, occurring about
this time, and leaving him, a mOrose
widoWer, with a child, little girl,
led him to more relentless activities;
perhaps the character of the crime
tainIy he revenged himself to the full;
not only raked the rocks for runa-
gates, but dragged peasants, inclined
to sullenness, from their huts; clap
ped some in dungeons and hanged the
rest. In the popular mind his name
became synonymous with cruelty, but,
on his high throne, he continued to
exercise his autocratic prerogatiVe
and cared not what the people
thought.
Meanwhile, the Seigneur Desauracy
recovering, became a prey to greater
restlessness; no sooner was he able
to get about, than, accompanied by q
faithful servant, Sanchez, he left the
neIghbOrhood, and, for a number Of
years, led a migratory existence in
continental capitals. The revolt Of

Of the contemplated departure Of the
brave Lafayette for the seat of hos
tilities, offered, at least, a preteXt to
break the letters Of a purposeless
life. At once he placed his sword at
Lafayette's disposal, and packed him
self and serVitor-a fellow Of dog
like fidelity-across the ocean. There,
at the seat Of wars alarms, in the
great conflict waged in the name Of
liberty, he met a soldiers end, far
from the field of his ancestors.
Sanchez, the man, buried him, and,
having dutifulIy performed this last
task, walked away from the grave
and out Of the army.
During this while the son by the
peasant woman, intrusted to an old
fishWife who had been allowed to
usurp a patch Of his fathers lands,
received scanty care and attention,
even when the stipulated fees for his
maintenance had continued to come;
but when, at the Seigneur's death,
they ceased, any slight solicltude on
the caretaker's part soured to acri-

DEFEAT THE
BURROW PRESS TO 4

The Whitmans won a well played
game from the Burrow Press yester
day by a score of to 1. Barrow, who
did the twirling for the Whitmans, was
hit hard in the first inning, but after
that he had things all his own way.
There were only three men to face
him in each inning after the first.
Everitt pitched his first game of the
season and 1t is easy to be seen that
he is there with the goods In the
first inning he was wild and allowed
three hits, which netted three runs,
but after the first he should not have
been scored against as he held the
Whitmans down to three scattered
hits. The game was as follows:
The Whitmans won the toss and
took the field. Thurman, the first man
up, hit safe, Jackson following with
another hit. With a man on first and
second Touart hit to second who
tagged the runner and got Touart at
first, the only double play of the game.
Haley hit through short, scoring Thur
man. Coberger had his eye with him
and got a walk. The best that e. Jack
son could do was to ground out, second
to first.
Wolfe, for the whitmans, led of
with a two-bagger, Wells went out by
the strike out route, Olsen went down
pitcher to first and then Bell got a
hit, scoring Wolfe. Barrow hit to
Haley, who juggled the ball and then
booted it along, allowing Bell to bring
up safely on third. Seckinger was
equal to the occasion and got a two
Dagger, scoring both Bell and Barrow.
Johnson went out pitcher to first, re-
firing the side. The Whitmans added
score in the second, third and fourth
innings, making the final score 8 to /.

Speaking of horses, we have in mind
one who is old enough to march in the
G. A r. parade, but who is still as
spry and clipper as a young colt He
is that famous old trotter, Country
Jay.
In 1901 Country Jay, then a speedy
5-year-old, finished second in the NJ
& NJ. He then was retired and many
forgot his existence. Eight years later
the 13-year-old colt came back-with
vengeance. At Detroit in his second
start of the season he defeated a star
field of trottcrs. From then on he
made a record to which any horse
might point with pride. At North Ran
dali he lowered the saddle record for
years held by Charles Mac, while later
in the season at Syracuse, he further
reduced the record. Country Jay is
pronounced by government officials a
fine type of American trotter, and
they are using his photograph to dem
onstrate the type OF horse they hope
to breed. George H. Estabrook, who
owns Country jay, says the 15-year-
old gelding is still young enough to
win record or two, and will take him
east with his stable this season.

IN FAVl r OF THE ACADIAN HOTEL
COMPANY

The United States District court, Portland
occupied for three days last week with
the case of Caroline R. Clarke of East Orange,
N. j., against the Acadian Hotel Co. of Cas-
tine, in which the plaintiff sues for $500 for
personal injuries received by falling down
the stairs of the hotel. After the evidence
was all in Judge Putnam directed verdict of
the jury in favor of the defendant. In direct
ing this verdict, Judge Putnam pointed out
that the plaintiff admitted having nothing to
compel her to go about the hotel in the dark
ness; that she knew of the danger of the stair
way and that she had neglected to take the
precaution of feeling her way along by the
wall while passing through the hallway. At
torneys for the plaintiff in the case filed ex
ceptions to the instructions given to the jury
by the court and the directing of the verdict.
With the completion of the testimony for the
plaintiff, ex- Congressman Littlefeld, of Little
field & Lttefeld of New York had moved for
a non suit, claiming that it had not been prov
en- conclusively that the defendant neglected
to show due care and that the plaintiff bad ex-
ercised due precaution. The motion was over
ruled and eight witnesses were examined for
the defense. With the completion of this
testimony, Mr.. Littlefeid, attorney for the
defense, moved that the court direct verdict
for the defendant, which was done
