BASS HARBoR, Oct. 81 (special-A sad
drowning accident occurred Thursday
afternoon, in which Robert lawson lost
his life. Mr.. Lawson, who had made his
home with his niece, Mrs. Eva Benson, for
some years, left The house after dinner to
go to his old home at the point, intending
to take some vegetables from his garden
there to customer across the harbor.
When he did not return at night, Mrs.
Benson became worried and instituted a
search. Later in the evening her son
Ralph fornd the poor old man lying dead
on the beach in shallow water. His
wheelbarrow, with bushel OF beets still
in it, was standing not far away.
Mr.. Lawson had spoken several times
lately about not feeling well, and it is sup
posed he must have had an i'll spell and
fallen into the shallow water. His boat
had not been upset.
Mr.. Lawson's parents came here from
Yorkshire, Eng, many years ago. After
their death he lived on at the old home
stead until, with advancing years and fail
ing health, he rented his house and lived
with his niece. He never married. He
leaves one sister - Mrs. Sarah Spear, OF
Rockland, and several nieces and nephews
His sudden death was a great shock to the
community. His genial face and helpful
ways will be greatly missed.

GREEN LAKE HATCHERY.
Doubled In Capacity to Hatch Pa
cific Coast Salmon.

Th government fish hatchery at Green
Lake has been practically doubled in
capacity in the past few months, to provide
for the Matching OF Pacific coast salmon
on large scale. Provision has been made
for Matching 100000 OF these fish, and a
shipment OF about $4,000 eggs was re-
ceived last week. There has been no cur
taiiment in the capacity OF the hatchery
for handling the iandlocked salmon and
trout as heretofore.
The hatchery building has been en-
larged by the addition of shed on the
eastern side, 41x22 feet, in which hatch
ing troughs are installed. Larger troughs
have been installed in the southern room
OF the hatchery, and an outside nursery
will be provided with over 100 more
troughs. Superintendent e. z. Race and
his crew, which has been increased, have
been having very busy times preparing for
the additional eggs.
The eggs received last week came from
the Washington coast by one OF the
regular fish commission cars, and were
in excellent condition in spite of their
1000 mile trip. These eggs are OF the
humpback salmon. A similar shipment
has been received at the Craig Brook
hatchery in East Orland.
Unlike the native salmon or the Quin-
nat salmon OF the Pacific coast, OF which
an experimental Matching was made here
some years ago, the humpback salmon
spawns near tide water, instead OF seeking
the headwaters OF the streams. They will
spawn in brackish water.
1t is proposed to plant the fry in the
spring in the waters OF Atlantic coast
rivers. It is unfortunate that in Union
river, often pronounced one OF the best
natural salmon rivers in Maine, the big
dam of the Bar Hsrbor q Union River
Power Co. is not provided with fishway.
This will probably prevent the planting Of
any OF these fish in Union river.

State officers, heads of departments

THE evidence shows some of these
defendants to be guilty of murder, but
they are not charged here with that
crime: this court cannot punish them
for it, nor should it be influenced by

Indignation which every law-abiding

Referring to the iron workers
strike which began in 1905. and

the motive which prompted John J.
Mcnamara to use dynamite as a
weapon, Judge Anderson said the
strike was attended by picketing,
then by smuggling and riots. He added:
But in 1906 a campaign by dyna.
mite was inaugurated, and, beginning
with explosions in the East and ex-
tending from the Atlantic to the Pc

MCNGmaras and McManigal in April,
1911.
THE evidence in this case shows
that almost 100 explosions, damaging
and destroying structures in process

Opon.shop concerns, took place, cul-
minating on the first day Of October.
1910, in the destruction Of the Los
