Bath, Me-, March 16.-fSpeeiaD-
Hon. Arthur J. Dunton, Baths new
Republican mayor, ard the new Re-
publican city government which con-
trolls both branches, took their oaths
today and an administration of bust
ness efficiency and economy is antici
pated for the ensuing year.
The inaugural exercises held today
present were Mrs Madeline Clifford
Dunton, wife of the mayor, and large
gathering of her friends, When Mayor
Dunton completed the reading of his
inaugural address, he was presented
with a handsome bouquet of pinks by
the ladies, the presentation speech be-
ing made by Alderman Edmund p.
Briggs.
Mayor Dunton's inaugural address
was plea for business economy COM
bined with efficiency and was a model
of brevity in the manner in which he
handled the various subjects. He
quoted figures to show that since
the prohibitory law has been strict
ly enforced in Bath there has been
marked decrease in the num-
Der of arrests for intoxication and
other contributing causes and recon-
mended reduction in the police
force; he also recommended that no
more appropriations for expensive play
ground apparatus for the schools be
made, but recommended an increased
appropriation for handling the ex-
termination of the brown tail moths.
His most important recommendation
however dealt with the termination of
the city's contract with the Maine
Water Co, in 1916 after a 80 years
tenure. He suggests that with the
assembling of the new legislature next
winter this city government take steps
for the passage of a bill establishing a
water district to be voted upon by the
citizens of Bath, believing that it will
be better for the city to take means to
protect itself before the termination of
the contract than after the contract
|. ceases.
Albert j. Grassy was unanimously
reelected city clerk, while Frank H.
Turner was elected president of the
board of aldermen. James f. Rand
president OF the board of common
council and Frank r. Jones clerk. The

Sporting Nez0s Of the Day


Matty Baldwin and George Alger will
make a good feature bout and the
three preliminaries will help to make
the opening meeting of the club a good
one.
Joe Jeanette is billed to try and
take the measure of George Carpenter,
the great French boxer, at Paris, Sat
urday night, but it is doubtful if the
American will be able to win, as he is
on the down grade.
Gilbert Gallant is to show again in
San Francisco Friday night where he
meets Red Watson, who Is teuted
pretty high by the San Francisco
sports.
Freddie Welsh, the lightweight
champion of England, who has been
trying for number of months to get
another crack at Willie Richie, is to
meet Joe Rivers at Vernon, Calf,
Tuesday night. He hopes that If he
defeats Rivers, which he will very
likely do, the public will force Richie
to meet him.
The Ritchie- Wolgast bout at Mil
waukee drew more money than any
other 10-round- no decision bout in
this country.
Willie Richie showed when he
weighed in for his bout with Wolgast
at Milwaukee the other night that he
still can make the lightweight limit.
He tipped the beam under 134 pounds.
Carl Morris knocked cut Jack Flem-
ing of Seattle in two round at Joplin,
Mo-. the other night. Morris is trying
to impress the promoters that he is
getting good, but Morris will have to
show a better hand to win.
Jim Coffey, the heavyweight from
Ireland, who is now boxing in New
York, will meet Bombardier Wells, the
English champion. for the title belt at
London, Eng, May 25.
Brewer Brown, who says he is a
converted English boxer, is in New
York preaching. He must keep in
touch with the sport yet, for in one of
his sermons the other day he said;
You Americans boast of your prize
fighters. You haven't got such things
as prize fighters. If / ever went back
to the world I'd go in for this taking
they call fighting today. There's
nothing but a lot of parlor fighters in
the ring Notwithstanding like the
old times when we got their heads I'M
der our arms, like this (biff. biff, biff. }
and banged them like this. (Bang!
Slam,) The winner took all in my
day. The loser took nothing-except
an awful beating. 1t wasn't in a big
building, but out in a gsntleman's park,
a Dukes grounds, maybe, under the
skies, and the train waiting with
steam up to go ahead with us full
speed at the first cry of Pol,ce.'"

Capt. Johnson with "incompetency,
negligence and inattention to duty"
He is charged in the report with the
violation of the international rules for
preventing collisions in giving wrong
whistle signal in the fog; with negh-
gence and inattention to duty because
he took no action to prevent the COLI
sion or to lessen it's force when the
vessels came in sight of each other,
and with incompetency and unskilful-
ness because proper discipline or Or
ganization was not maintained among
the crew in an effort to protect the
lives of all persons on board and be-
cause no proper effort was promptly
made to obtain assistance from the
Nantucket. On the last specification,
Capt Sargent said:
while we believe that Capt. johnson,
as an Individual did everything that was
humanity possible to save the lives of all,
it is to be regretted that he did not dele
gates certain duties which he attended to
himself to some of the other members OF
his crew and thus give himself more time
to devote to matters of greater import

Nothing is easier" said NJ Paoli.

Never" said the empress; they
will send me up carefully prepared

RELIC or NEW AMSTERDAM
, Laborers In New York Subway Come
Across Interesting Ruins Of
Old Dutch Prison.

Remains Of a prison supposed to
data back to the early Dutch period
have been unearthed in New York.
Midway between Dey and Cortlandt
streets, Snder Church street, work
men came across a solid stone wall.
It began about eight feet below the
surface of the street and ran down
to the bottom of the excavation. which
here is thirty feet deep.
1t stood at right angles to the line
Of the street. and was constructed
with sucs solidity that the masonry
was still in good repair. 1t was
pierced by three small windows
guarded by the type Of grillwork used
in the seventeenth century for jails,
end to Dry the iron bars away re-
CURED the use of considerable force.
The attention Of an authority on
tho history of old New York was
called to this relic. He examined it
with care, and expressed the opinion
that the wall once formed part Of the
lookup of New Amsterdam, and that
it had been used as late as the eight
eenth century. Most of the wall,
where it crossed the line of the new
subway, has now been pulled down,
but the ends cS 1t remained and will
again be buried beneath and on
either side Of the railroad structure
