Attempted to Buy Ellsworth, but
Didn't Get Away With 1t.

DAAn y Wv away ~sASAA ~
Ellsworth had visit from the man who
created stir in Machias recently. When
he drifted into that town, he claimed to
have fallen in love with it at first sight,
negotiated for the purchase Of q house
and furnishings and took possession at
once pending the arrival Of his wealthy
mother who would close the deal and turn
over the money. He installed pianola,
and entertained some Of the boys of the
town lavishly. A midday display Of fire.
works was one OF the features of his en-
tertainment.
He bargained for an automobile, ar
ranged for the papering and painting
Of his house and the building of garage,
purchased furniture on credit, etc. Then
be disappeared.
He didn't take anything with him to
make capture worth while, and the Off
GERS in Washington county did not want
him. They sent word Of warning along
the wire to Ellsworth, however, and when
the stranger showed up here and at
tempted to repeat, he was quickly spotted.
He obtained board at J. II. Macomber's ito
stop until he could find q house that
suited him, which he intended to pur-
chase. He had victrola sent up from F.
F. Robinson's store, and enjoyed music all
day Sunday.
But Sheriff Silsby gave Mr.. Macomber
| warming, and when the stranger was
asked Monday morning to pay his board,
he deferred "until after the banks were
open'', but as the banks we're closed on
Monday, q legal holiday, he decided not
to wait. He didn't say anything to Mr..
Macomber about going, but he left a
dress-suit case which will about cover his
board bill. He didn't hit anyone in Els
| worth very hard.
The last heard OF him he was bound for
Bucksport. But he will find his fame has
preceded him, as Sheriff Silsby has passed
the word along.
Opinion is divided as to whether he is
just plain crank or pretentious crook.

It is time for Mr. Wells to wake up to sense of his responsibilities and realize what he owes to Birmingham, which has been friendly to him in the past. He is making great mistake in treating this city as if it were village. He and Mr. Hoblitzelle will find to their cost that the local public is tired of their endless quarrels.

Wheat Raising in Alabama

Apropos of the present crop diversified ton movement that is taking such strong hold on the farmers of Alabama, in a very interesting talk on the subject Dr.. George Morrow stated that he was using at his home here in Birmingham nearly every article needed for the food supply of his family that came from his own farm out near Trussville.
 "rhe idea that wheat cannot be suc- cessfully grown here is the veriest non- sense, for I am eating flour as good as ever comes to Birmingham that was ground in St Clair county from wheat that raised last year on my own farm" said pr. Morrow Tt was of uniform quality and made fine yield per acre, all though I did not have much sown. But this year expect to have a surplus over and above what I need for my own fam fly and my tenants; and in addition I am using my own homegrown meats lard, butter and eggs I have as fine turkeys as can be raised anywhere, and chickens have no enemy to contend with, while my forage crop was abundant for my own use and had some to sell
 There is no reason why Alabama should not feed and clothe her own cit izens, and this crop diversifcation move ment means untold benefit to the state, for money kept at home serves a double purpose. It remains in circulation to help build up our state and stops the drain that impoverishes the people. If flour mills are erected in localities where they do not now exist it will be a great help n ttro tha for, {A afrA wheat and encouragement should be given in this direction

FANCY DIVING
From March Outing.

T rom MATCH OutluS.
 All preliminary work in fancy div ing should be done from low board
 The all-important thing is to acquire muscular control and to learn to time accurately ones movements.
 When the time comes to start work ing from an elevated platform the as- pirant to proficiency will profit by bearing in mind the advice given by George Gaidzick. holder for several years of the American championship, and probably the best all-round diver ever developed in this country. He said:
 q try to enter the water with a slant of about 150 degrees and when about to strike I bring the hands to- gether and interlock the thumbs, hold ing the arms fully extended and rigid, with head between them This is most important for the impetus is so great in dropping from height that unless the arm muscles are set hard, the hands locked, and the head protected, joint and terrific blow received on the softest part of the skull.
 The body should remain straight ana SUIT until the rect are submerged this minimizes the chance of splash . ing. I relax at the shoulders the in- stant I am fully covered, then bend head and arms upward and shoot to the surface as quickly as possible. l find it helpful too, to separate the legs in relaxing, as this brings me up more rapidly by checking the speed Of the body. Beginners, however, should be careful not to bend upward too sudden ly or badly sprained back may be the conseQuence.

FlimfIammed Judge

A few evenings ago one of our judges was sitting on his front porch reading daily paper.' said Henry King, when duslSy son of Ham, who gave his name as Fake Jones, came along and poured out tale of lamentation. He stated his wife had passed to the great beyond, that he was out of work and of course out of money, and begged the sum of $1 with which to telegraph relatives in Montgom- cry for funds to lay to rest his beloved spouse. The negro looked so woe begone that the judge was touched and 1oosened up, and Fake went off with the desired coin.
 "On the next evening while the judge was at dinner the negro called again and asked an audience with him. He had in his possession a check for s4 and asked the judge to cash it. It was made pay able to cash and signed by cross mark. It was so palpably a fraud and so bungling in it's execution that the judge became exceedingly wroth. Without a. word the judge took swing at the negro with his lusty right fist, just barely miss ing the point of his chin but as the ne- gro turned to flee he planted his No. s right where it belonged, and the negro turned a sommersault down the steps. It was not the loss of the dollar that made the judge angry; it was being taken for an easy mark by negro"

cHICAGo's uNGRATEFUL WOMEN

From the New York World
 Of the 154,750 women who voted in the Chicago primaries for mayor, only SPA figured in the final count as pro gressives. one-half of 1 per cent It is possible that the sex which is new to the suffrage in Illinois Is as Tickle as the men in it's allegiance to new thought politics? Evidently the women intend to degenerate into plain demo- crats and republicans just as their fathers and husbands and sons have done. Was it not a great progressive leader, who promised them the vote if they would support and work for him?
 It was Chicago that witnessed the glorious birth of the progressive party less than three years ago, and women thronged the platform and filled tho front ranks at the great revival meet ing in the Coliseum. Where have all the former progressives gone? What is to become of Jane Addams, who swayed millions of voters for social justice? Is she to be left in solitary grandeur on her neglected pedestal while friv- olous and ungrateful female voters go tripping off to cast their ballots for democratic and republican candidates?
 It was the voices of Chicago wom- en which swelled the chorus when the convention rose and chanted "Onward, Christian Soldiersi" Who will supply their places in 1916? If there are no female voices to join in the anthem and men are as scarce as they promise to be, it may be necessary to put forward hired quartet to keep up the old re- ligious fervor of the progressive party.

A Republican View point

The democratic press, naturally, is ardent in it's defense of the accom- plishments of Congress during the administration of President Wilson. The republican press, naturally, is adversely critical.
 It is interesting, therefore, to note the summary of the Chicago Tribune which while giving the administration it's dues, insists that still other reme- dial Legislation must be achieved. According to the Tribune, Congress in two years has secured:
 1. The enactment of a tariff law revising downward practically all schedules affecting articles of food. clothing, and shelter, and revising upward most schedules affecting luxuries.
 ?. The enactment of ap income tax law.
 3. The enactment of war tax law.
 1. The enactment of new bank ing law.
 s. The enactment of law ere ating federal trade commission.
 6. Enactment of law revising the antitrust statutes; exempting labor and farmers organizations from the provisions of those etatutes, and abolishing interlocking airectorates in big business.
 2. The enactment of an agricul- tural extension act, which is in tended to carry the results of the department of agriculture's re- search work directly to the men. and women on the forms.
 8. The enactment of a law which affords the government better facilities for settling railroad and industrial disputes.
 9. The enactment of a law pro- yiding for the construction of a railroad in Alaska intended to open ID that territory to civilization end development.
 70. The enactment of an anti-nar-

Alabama Farmers Buoyant

The recent crop diversification cam paign in Alabama has had the effect of infusing a new spirit into the farmers. Every tiller of the soil is heartened and the outlook for high record prosperity in the rural dis tricts was never so bright as now.
 Despite the low price of cotton last fall north Alabama not only did not suffer, but as result of diversified tion practice which became quite gen. Ierally established in that section sev- eral years ago, the farmers, with very few exceptions, were able to pay their debts and have money left without be- ing forced to dispose of their cotton. In other words, they are in excellent condition; and encouraged by their success and aroused to high degree of enthusiasm by the diversification campaign activities they are now be- ginning their spring work with re- doubled energy and increased optim- ism. They will strive to surpass all former records.
 In the middle and southern sections ol the state where in many instances . cotton had been raised to the neglect of food crops there will be striking transformation this year. The cotton that is produced will be grown on a reduced acreage; and if weather con- ditions are favorable the production per acre will be materially heightened The economy thus put into effect will enable the farmer to make his crop at greatly lessened cost which, in turn, will mean profit even if the price should be under ten cents.
 But the largest gain to the farmer who acts upon the advice of the crop campaign demonstrators and instruc- tors will be found in the production of foodstuffs. Alabama has been send ing away millions of dollars every year for grain, hay and meat that could have been and should have beer produced in the state. If it does not feed itself this year it will certainly make good start at it, and by 1916 Agricultural Alabama will find fat balance on the right side.
