SEARCH AND SEIZURE. Deputies Arthur G.
Beach of this city and Willard M. Berry of
Stockton Springs made search and seizure
last week at the home of Dominic Guidmore in
Frankfort. near Mosquito mountain. In the

80 empty barrels, 20 gallon cask half full of
beer, five gallons of wine, two gallons of whis
key and many empty bottles and glasses, with
faucets and measures. Guidmore was arrest
ed and taken to Stockton Springs tried before

MALICIOUS MISCHIEF Last Sunday after
noon four fires were set in the wood lot in East
Belfast known as the Stock Farm lot and own
ed by George O. Pendleton. Mrs Pendeton dis
covered the first fire near the lane and notified
Mr.. Pendeton, who with friends rushed to the
place and succeeded in getting the fires under
control. When the last fire was discovered in
the rear of the lot it had been burning less than
ten minutes. Mr. Pendeton owns l2S acres,
on which valuable growth of hard wood was
left after Mr.. Dustin had cut the soft wood.
Mr.. Dustin's lumber was stacked on the lot
and would have been burned had not the fires
been discovered in time, and he as well as Mr..
Pendleton would have suffered severe loss.
The city marshal has been notified, hut no
arrests has been made as yet, though it is
hoped the perpetrator of this malicious act
may be brought to justice.
