DISAPPEARS FROM
HOME
Missing Child Found At
North Vassalboro
BIanch Lane Gets Free Transports
lion. Is the Daughter OF Mrs. Helen
Lane.

Blanch Lane. the 9-year old daugh-
ter of Mrs Helen Lane. and the late
Bert Lane, disappeared from the home
Of her foster parents. Mr. and Mrs
Reuben Perry on Lancaster Street,
Thursday last Sheriff Thompson was
notified that same day and search was
Instituted in this vicinity but the
child was located Friday night al III
home of Mr.. and Mrs Albert Bickfor ]
in North Nassal boro.
The little girl appeared at the rail
road station Thursday morning pre-
vious to the departure of the N.o5 train
and told Conductor II. : Hopkins that
her mother was to meet her in Water
vile and that she would pay him
there for her Transportation Upon
her arrival there the train official saw
no one meet her and he consequently
notified an officer at the station fear
ing that the girl was running away.
It is understood that the child in
some way however eluded the officer
and mada her WAY TO the business
part of the city. She had formerly
visited at the Bickford home at North
Nassalboro and managed to find Mr..
Bickford's place of business in Water
Vile Upon making inquiry for him
she found he was not there, but OBJ
tanned ten cents from other employees
saying she wished TO go to Mr. Bick-
fords home She was taken upon
her arrival there and appears to have
told a story to the effect that her
mother had sent her there to remain
until she called for her, so Mrs. Bick-
ford did not notify the authorities.
Mrs. Lane. the mother of the child
has been for some time employed in
Waterville and is the widow Of the
late Bert Lane. 1t is understood that
the child's reason for leaving the
home of her foster parents was thai
she had heard she was going to b,
sent to a convent and did mol wish r6
go to such an institution

%q&p&

We have recently been making a
search for views of Skowhegan as its
streets and buildings looked 25 to rs
years ago. Among them we have
brought to light several pictures of
old time hotels and this has lead us
TO assemble some information about
them.
No one now living remembers the
first hotels in town. The late Harlow
Bigelow used to tell OF a log house
that stood near the bank of the river
near the present locati of the Mu
nieipal Building, in : Itch travelIers
We're lodged as the rasion of tfI0se
days required. The name of the own
er is not known and is probably lost
forever. Sometime previous to 1910 a
man by the name of Simon Marston
built frame house to take the place
Of the log house just mentioned. He
was always spoken of as Slime Mar
ston from Taunton, Good Lord this
being the form of his reply when
asked where he came from. The
Taunton referred to would seem to
indicate that he came from Massach-
usetts Little more than this seems
to be known about Skowhegan's ear
liest landlord.
In about 1910 Marston was succeed
ed in ownership by Moses Pike. Pike
seems to have been a prominent man
here for many years. 1t is said that
the Bachelor House. now rebuilt as
the residence of Mrs. Edna Page
Smith, was originally built by him.
William Lewis continued the business
after Pike in practically the same
three room structure, tnally
selling to Silas Turner. Silas
Turner was the brother of Chas. X.
Turner, prominent business man OF
the time. Chas. K was town clerk
Tor many years and will be recalled
as junior partner of the Arm of Emery
d Turner, grocers, whose place OF
business was in the block now oCcu-
pied by W. B. Steward as late as 1880
Silas Turner very likely came here
from Norridgewock There was a no
lei in that town, a very pretentious
building for those days, called the
Turner House. His wife was the

There's Reason" 1t is seldom that
an address in Skowhegan has ever

than We're the scientific remarks of
Prof. Brown. His main theme re
yolVed about the idea of mans su-
periority over beast showing the eff
feet OF sin upon the different senses
given 10 human beings. He pictured
very graphically the senses given to
man, which are not given to any Of
the animals, while numerous philo-
sophical explanations threw much
light upon both animal and human
being He touched upon the use Of
liquors and narcotics and stated that
it was a known fact 10 him that no
yaledctorian Of either Harvard or
Colby Colleges had ever Won such
honors and at the same time been
addicted TO the use of liquor.

William +, Baker, of the Phillies, an.
nounced yesterday that Pat Moran had
been appointed manager of his ball
ciub, replacing Charlie Doom. There
has been considerable friction this wear
in the ranks of the Phillies. and the
poor showing OF the club in the Ma.
tlonal League race was attributed in
part 10 this fact. Doom rose from the
ranks to take the managerial reins. He
Is competent catcher, and the pre-.
sumption here is that he will figure in
