all blankets and ponchos were spread
upon the ground and mess kits placed
upon them. Following examination of
arms the inspecting Offices doubled their
tracks and carefully examined the equip

Shortly after II o'clock the order to
return to company streets was given
and regimental inspection was over
Considering the hike taken by the
regiment and the sham battle participat-
ed in, the condition of practically all
equipment and arms was found to be
excellent.
Horace Sturgis of this city has ex-
tended a cordial invitation to the militia
authorities of this State to make use of
what are termed the "Old Indian camp
ing grounds for a temporary hiking
camp during the maneuvers to be held
here in 1915 These grounds are located
upon the Sturgis farm on the vassalboro
road between the farm buildings and the
kennebec river. "Seven-Mile brook
runs through the land and this fact, COM
bined with the close proximity of the
spot to the Kennebec, makes it a very
likely thing that Mr.. Sturgis' invitation
will be accepted two years hence.

TWO THEORIES ADVANCED.
Fred r. cahiiI, Bath, Either Dead or
Many Miles Away.

Bath, Me-, Aug. 12.-(SpeciaD. Two
theories are advanced now in regard
to the strange disappearance of Fred
r. Cahill, who has been missing since
last Thursday. The first, and one
that seems to be generally credited,
is that Mr.. Cahill is dead, either from
exhaustion or exposure; the second,
is that if alive, he is many miles from
the locality where he was last seen.
at Quaker Point, on the New Meadows
river, West Bath.
The search was renewed, today, up
and down the lower end of the West
Bath line. Searching parties have
been turning over the underbrush, up
turning heavy boulders, crawling into
caves, overturning hay in the barns.
thus taking more than ordinary care
not to overlook any possible locality
where Mr.. Cahill might have crept
away to escape detection.
Inasmuch as Mr.. Cahill was believd
to be mentally deranged when he left
home, Thursday. to go blueberryina in
the Woolwich pastures, it is not i'm
possible that he may be many miles
from Bath. 1t is estimate that on the
day of his disappearance. he must
have tramped between 10 and Is miles.
Taking this as a basis of the turn of
his mind at that time, 1t is argue I
that he may be in some other part of
the State by this time. If alive. ii
is believed that he is not near the
locality where last seen.
His family have come to the con-
clusion that he is dead and are an
xious for the recovery of his body

of this famous woman than probably any
other, except it might be Queen Eliza

There is no fact alleged concerning that
unfortunate and extraordinary queen and
woman which has not been denied by
one side or another, on which are ranged
her partisans and her accusers. Her ac-
cusers claim that there We're found be-
fore her trial some authentic letters writ

she was party to the murder of her hus-
band Lord Darnley. and to her abduction
of Boutwell,
When Boutwell, fled he left behind him
in his haste a silver-gilt casket. which

Admission. December S.-(Specal.) THE
empanellng and charging of the special
grand jury of the city court. together with
important civil business coming before
him, constituted one of the busiest DAYS
in long time with Judge Thomas w
Coleman. Jr., or the Admission city court
The special grand jury results from
the killing of Isaac w. Kemp, the formel
well known Annistonian who was recently
shot to death In his furniture store al
Piedmont. The city council of Piedmon,
passed resolutions and a voluminous pe-
tition was circulated calling upon Judge
coleman to call the special grand jury to
investigate the killing. Besides this there
VIII probably be an Investigation into the
assault by Lon Higgins, young negro
on Officer w. T. Pruitt of the local police
force, who was confined to the hospital
several days as result of his injuries.
Held Without Bail
AT preliminary investigation before
Judge J. J. Arnold of the probate court
Jim Tucker young bridegroom. was held
without bail on a charge of murder il,
the Kemp case and Will Davis. his
brother-in-law, was committed to Jail in
default of a $500 bond being held as a
material witness. Both men were sum
moned before the grand jury Monday
In his charge to the grand jury, Judge
Coleman emphasized the point that The
people themselves are the law and that II
their hands alone lies the enforcement Of
Justice 80 per cent of the verdicts rendered
by juries never being appealed The
sooner people realize that they are theii
own protectors through the law, tn,
sooner will they get the protection whicl
they desire, he said.
Veniremen Retire
Judge Coleman referred only to tn,

the jury, following which the chosen We
niremen retired to their room and begal
| their deliberations
| After being out a few hours, the jur,
| reported a true bill against Jim Tucke
| shortly before o'clock.
| A special term of the city court ha.
| been called for December 10. During thi.
term, Judge Coleman will hear about q
| cases appealed from the Admission re
| corder's court most of which have to dc
