Wants His Presents Back

The first case in supreme court this
morning was something out of the ordi-
nary and caused a ripple of amusement
when the plaintiff. a nice looking young
man from Worcester Mass, explained to
the jury how he had let bewitching Miss
Marjorie Cowan of Orange. N. j.. wear
his 500 diamond ring and that when the
season ended and the summer Irritation
was declared off she wouldn't give It
back.
It Is a romance of Northport Camp
ground that the jury is asked to study
and reflect over. In this case the man
awakened all too soon and wanted his
presents back. but the girl couldn't see
it that way. In fact she says she can't
give it back as she has lost it. Hon
estly she has lost IT and her mother
backs her up in 1t, too.
r. f. Dunton appeared FOR Mr.. Rack
life and H. c. Russell for Miss Cowan
The case went to the jury In the after
noon.

200, 900 CANS OUTPUT
FOR GARDINER FACTORY

A visit to the canning factory on Har-
rison avenue showed about 20 men and
women employed in the open Shed busily
engaged in husking corn for the cannery.
There IS absolutely no violation of the
child labor law in this cannery.
The pack this season will not only be
light one, but /. unusually late. 1t Is
estimated that about 10000 cans will be
the output and this is gain over last
season. when the pack was also night.
At the beginning of the season 1t was
feared that an early frost might work
havoc with the corn crop, and although
the season is late the corn now Ginning
in is of excellent quality Huskers earn
from sl.50 to g per day and their pay is
regulated by their dizziness, as they re-
eeive five cents per basket for the husked
corn.

Belfast, Me, Sept. 24.-(SpeciaD.--
The only jury trial during the first
two days of the term was that of b.
NJ. Barker VS.. Perlie York and An
ME l.. York, parties of Troy. The mat
ter involved the payment of a prom
issory note, the plaintiff bringing suit
to collect the balance. Mrs. Annie L.
York, one of the defendants appeared,
claiming that her name had been
signed to the note by her husband
without her knowledge or consent
The jury returned a verdict for Mrs
York. AS Perlie York did not appear
his case was defaulted and Judgment
for the cost and balance of the note
was given to the plaintiff.
The afternoon session on Wednes-
day was given to hearings before the
court in divorce suits and to exam
lining candidates for naturalization.
The juries were dismissed until 0
o'clock this morning.
Everything indicates short civil
term which will probably close this
week. The criminal docket looks as if
1t might be little longer although as
the grand jury is still in session it is
impossible to tell what the outcome
will be.
The first traverse jury is made up of
men who have never before served on

Big Junket AT States Expense

THE men who helped railroad
through the Legislature the Bill, car
rying an appropriation by this State
of $4,000 for the Maryland Panama
Exposition Commission to San Fran
cisco, are now falling over each other
in their efforts to get on the Commits
sion and make the costly junket to
San Francisco at the States expense.
Said one of them the other day:
81 don't know that can stand any
beauty test, but | think | am just as
pretty as Speaker Trippe or President
Price. But do not insist that | must
be named as Commissioner. | don't
care anything about the glory of it,
but | want to see San Francisco and
this is my only chance. | am going
along even if have to take Job as
somebody's valet. They dare not leave
me behind. They know what | did to
get that bill through. And there are
more they will have to take along.
And they all know it. What's the use
of appropriating all that coin and
take nobody along? OF course, there's
lots of us going. If they make the
