her in conversation, and offers her
candy, of which she eats.
Then Lois Piper drops out of sight.
She has dim recollection of feeling
i'll and leaving the theatre, followed
by the attractive woman, of being es-
sisted into an automobile, of travel
ing on the railroad. When full con-
seriousness returns, week later, she
is in the hands of "white slavers" in
Boston. Thanks to the early and
wide publicity given the case by the
newspapers, the chase had become
''too hotn, and Lois Piper is sent
home, thus escaping the fate of many
less fortunate girls.
In the security OF home, young
girls and parents read of cases like
this almost daily. II Is certainly not
Indifference, but rather over-confi-
dence, that allows the warning to
pass UNDECIDED. The very terror of
the thing seems to them TO protect
them from it, but when the terror
presents itself, 1t is always hidden
perhaps in a box of chocolates. as In
the case OF Lois Piper.

young blue goose was shot at Isle au
lisut by J. F. Coniey. OF York island,
recently. This is the first record Of the
blue goose ever having been found in
Maine. The blue goose breeds in the
Hudson bay territory and winters on the
west coast OF California. This specimen is
young bird. and it is supposed that it
wandered to Maine with geese OF another
variety. 1t is fine specimen, and the
fact that /, has never been found here be-
fore makes IL of considerable interest.

From the FIRST days OF your cOnsiitn-

gentle sweetness OF his character.
He made his way without hardness or
harshness, with consistent patience and
grand courage, and though politically

resort to questionable methods or dubious
| alliances, no matter what such Q course
might mean to bis future. He was an

that noble and gentle spirit honored us
by his presence and his friendship. In all
the problems Of citizenship aud civic duty,
his heart, his conscience and bis judgment
worked together, and he never lacked the
courage OF his competitions.
In all the finer and dcarer relations o,
friendship and the home, the man who
appeared 30 well in the outside world

The parcel post opens a loop
hole for evasion Of the game law by
shipment of game. Postmaster Gen.
eral Burleson says that under the law
the postoffice department cannot
discriminate In the acceptance OF
packages that comply with the 'regu-
lations in other respects. This does
not,n he added, Operate against the
right of any state to proceed under
state laws against parties violating
them, except that officers of the de-
partment in discharge OF their official
duties are not to be interfered with. ~
This, interpreted, means that game
once entrusted to the mails for ship
ment cannot be seized. The pot
hunters viii not be slow to take sd-
vantage OF this loop hole. 1t is to be
hoped that the postofflce regulations
can be so amended as to forbid post
masters to receive game for mailing
in states in which shipment OF game
is forbidden by law.

PEACE PACT NEARER
Balkan Allies Will Not Seek to
Change Terms.

London. May 26.-The allies informed
Osman Miami Pacha al joint meetlhs
Of the Balkan and ottoman peace dele
gates Yesterday that they had no Intention
OF asking for further notifications Of the
peace terms already put forward.
This announcement is regarded as an i'm
portant step in the direction Of peace, as
the Ottomans anticipated that If any
notifications were suggested it would
leave the door open for further demands
on the part OF the allies.
The strained relations between the Bal
kan allies show little improvement. A
dispatch TO The Times from Athens
says that the Greek feet while passinS
Kavala was fired upon by the Bulgarian
shore batteries. The danger of war
between the allies distracts attention for
the moment from the peace NEGOTIATIONS
with Turkey.
A Constantinople dispatch TO The
Times" says that Italy and Germany are
disposed no longer to oppose the cession
of practically all the Hxean Islands to
