ARRESTED FOR MANsLAuGHTER.
George M. Stacy Had Shot Boy on Rifle
Range.

Portsmouth, Y. H., Nov l6.--George
NJ Stacy, keeper of the state rifle range
at Mansabesic, Auburn, who Saturday
shot and instantly killed Harry Meloon,
who, with companion, had invaded the
range for target practice, was brought
here at O'Clock Sunday morning by
County Solicitor Ernest L. Guptill and
Sheriff Ceylon Spinney and placed in the
Rockingham county Jail.
Stacy will be taken to Raymond and
arranged in the district court before
Judge John L. Bartlett, charged with
manslaughter Stacy claims that his
gun was accidentally discharged, but the
county officials claim that he was en-
ragged over the fact that the two young
men had been firing from the wrong end
Of the range and that Meloon did not
throw up his hands when commanded to
do 80 by Stacy, that he fired in the di
rection of the young man, intending at
least TO frighten him. The shot entered
the breast, seyering an artery. Meloon
was unharmed at the time, his COM
penion having the rifle that the two had
used at target practice.

STILL STUCK ON REEF.
But Tug Triton Is Not Thought to BE
Damaged Seriously.

Burlington, Nov. l6,-The tug Triton,
which was blown on 10 the reef at Quak
er Smiths point during the gale Friday
night, was still resting there Saturday
afternoon with high south wind blow
ing which would not allow any work be-
gun for her removal. The Protector
went to the scene of the disaster Satur-
day morning but could do. nothing so
returned to this port with the three
canal boats and lighter which the Triton
was towing when she hit the reef. The
tug Robert Cook came up TO DIR. Webb's
early yesterday morning with two canal
boats but could do nothing ON account Of
the high south wind.
To Just what extent the Triton is
damaged cannot be ascertained until she
is pulled up. II was at first thought
that there was hole in her bottom as
she is three quarters full of water, but
the captain OF the Robert Cook upon ex-
animation yesterday thought there was
nothing more than sprung seams. The
Robert Cook is ALSO owned by the
Lake Champlain Transportation com
pany at Whitehall and brought two
canal boats so that the Triton might be
aoated and, being lashed to them, kept
from sinking when she was taken from
the reef 1t was not thought yesterday
that the canal boats would be needed
The ends of the canal boats the Triton
rad in tow were somewhat battered but
hey were old ones and the damage is
mall.

a collision with much heavier auto
mobile in Montpelier Saturday after
noon, after a peculiar combination of cir

the city limits, the driver saw load of
hay approaching and started to veer to
the right. As he steered to the side of
the highway, the road before him dis
closed another car, approaching, as Mr..
Morris saws. at a comfortable speed. A
il seemed, was imminent, and
the constable, thinking to avoid head
long contact with the car, swung back
into the road and struck the load of hay.
He had brought his Ford TO halt, 50
lar as the wheels were concerned. but
he car itself continued to Slide and in
The next instant. the Cross car, with
Ernest Fletcher, a chauffeur, at the
