It Is intimated that q number OF
prosecutions may result from investi-
cations made in Maine by special
agents in connection with the returns
under the recent income tax law. The
investigation has proceeded quietly
but effectively, it is rumored, and de-
velopments are expected within a
short time. It is probable that in
many cases ignorance of the provisions
of the law, which was considered de-
cidedly complicated, had more to do
with failures to comply with the act
than deliberate intent. There was and
has been much discussion over what
was intended by certain provisions OF
the law and many persons are still in
doubt.
DR.. E. Vincent Sullivan, son of Post
master Sullivan Of st. Stephen, and
one of the most successful physicians
and surgeons Of Calais and St. Stephen,
has responded to the call OF duty and
has received a commission as heuten-
ant in the Royal Army Medical Corps
OF England and sailed from Montreal
on Thursday evening, June 10, for
service at one of the hospitals either
in England or France. DR.. Sullivan is
giving up, for the time being. large
and constantly growing practice in
Calais and vicinity to serve those
wounded in the cause of the Empire.
Mrs. Sullivan will visit her parents in
Philadelphia for a time and will later
join her husband across the water.
Plans are now being drafted and
will soon be carried into execution by
the members of the Portland Park
Commission for the placing Of the gun

the citizens of Portland learn that this
relic, which binds Portland in mem
DRY to the tragic fate in '9S of the
staunch craft which bore the name of
the Pine Tree states, is to be given a
prominent place in Portland's beau
tiful park The appropriation for this
work will be taken out of the regular
park commission fund and the old
piece of armament will be put in ex-
cellent condition before being finally
placed in position

Lure of the Omen.

You know the way it gets you til
You can not work or rest
Because the call of out -of-doors
Makes tumult in your breast.
1t gets you at the office and
1t follows you right home,
This whisper of the spring time that
Invites you forth to roam.
Where little streams are laughing down
Through wooded dells to make
The world more rich with music e'er
They vanish in the lake.
And dancing waves are waiting to
Bear forth your bark canoe
To where the monday campfire smoke
Floats upward to the blue.
These are the things which haunt your
heart,
And hundreds more you know,
Make up the call that summon you
To just break loose and go.

Il wish,'' said a prominent citizen
this morning, 1.-The Times would cor
rect the story that is going the rounds
of the press that the United States
is about to use cotton for flags instead
Of bunting for the reason that wool
bunting has to be imported and cotton
is an American product. This story
was first started with the idea of in
creasing the sale of cotton to help the
South. We have bunting mills in the
country that can supply all our needs
at Lowell. Mass, and probably else
where. 1t has been stated in the paper
that the Government at Washington
found that 1t could buy bunting for
flags at lower prices abroad and was
not willing to pay our mills the prices
asked, owing to our higher cost of
labor. A protest against this was made
by our manufacturers and now the cry
is for cotton flags. There is no equal
substitute for flags made of pure wool
bunting and all the bunting necessary
for flags and public purposes can be
supplied by our own mills and made
by American labor"

his father telling of vessel that was
years ago constructed in a yard some

completed it was drawn to the water

it would be hard to gather such a team

FAIR PLAY FOR MRS. YOUNG
I have been reading the senate in
vesdgatiOn of the school board deficit
held at La Sale hotel. But the inves-
tigatiOn fails to show much light on
the deficit. One trustee says that he
knows the board will lose vast sums
of money by the recent laid appraisal
of school lands on State street. But
he advises us strongly to accept this
appraisal, as we will lose more than
this amount if we carry it to court
during the long years of litigation, so
he claims. And this is all the light
the investigation gives on the tremen-
dOus loss to the schools owing to
land leases and the appraisals Of
land on State and Dearborn streets.
Another trustee admits that the
schools lose vast sums of money in
buying land sites for schools. Then
he says nothing can be done to pre-
vent such "steals." Forget it again!
And the investigation is closed on
another cause of a deficit.
But when they come to speak Of
Mrs. Young how their tongues are
IOOsened. How contradictory are
their statements!
q will say to the credit Of Mrs.
Young that I believe her to be abso-
lutely honest. She would not. spend
funds unless she got absolute returns.
But I do not think she should have
the power. That should be left to
a business manager"
Where in the world can you find
better qualifications for a business
manager than this trustee attributes
to Mrs. YOung?'
In another breath this trustee says
that he did not vote for Mrs, Young,

closed recently though they were

possess the most unique form Of weap-
on of any military unit in the cam
paign. This Is hand-throwing mis-
sile. composed of metal similar In
shape to the discus with which we
have been made familiar in Roman
history. Its edge Is sharpened like a
razor. and the weapon. when thrown
with peculiar circular motion, has
extraordinary penetrating power. 1t
cuts like knife through paper when
It strikes any object in its path. At
. distance Of a hundred yards the disk
Is capable Of cutting its way through
q piece of hard wood two inches thick
1t Is the peculiar twist given to the
weapon when II is thrown which
causes the cutting edge to bury itself
20 remorselessly in anything that It
meets. II Is doubtful whether any
but the sikhs could effectively Use
