Basket Ball.

Norway High School basket ball team
has two games scheduled for this week,
both away from home. On Friday even
ing they will play Berlin High at Berlin
and on Saturday evening they meet Cor
ham, N. H., at Gorham. Both will be
bard games and Norway will be lucky If
they succeed in winning either of them.
The lovers of the game In this vicinity
will be glad to learn that definite ar
rangements have been made for the
game to be played on Christmas night,
Saturday, Dec. rs, by the members of
last years high school five and Portland
Independents. 1t looks now as II the
Norway team that will start this game
will be exactly the same as the team
that played such a fine game last winter
and will be composed of Sanderson, Has
kell, Shepard, Smith and Klain. 1t is
also probable that Bethel and Andrews
of this years high school team will get
into the game for part of the time.
The expense of arranging this game will
be large but there is every reason to be,
lieve that the fans will turn out in large
numbers and show their appreciation of
the privilege of witnessing such strong
attraction.

Frank II. BumpuS.

Although there had been hopes of a
different outcome, Frank II. Bumpus OF
South Paris died Monday evening, the
9th, at DR.. Kings hospital in Portland.
About two weeks previous Mr.. Bumpus
was taken to the hospital for treatment
for appendicitis, but an operation dis
closed serious complications. Neverthe-
less for a week or more his condition
seemed favorable, but change for the
worse came later, and the end followed
Monday night.
If any testimony were needed as to
the number and sincerity of Mr.. Bum
pus' friends in his home town, it was
certainly afforded by the constant in
quiries made as to his welfare during
the time he was in the hospital, and the
interest in it almost universally shown.
Mr.. Bumpus was the son of Nathanial
G. and Maria (Winslow) Bumpus. He
never married, and for nearly thirty-two
years had been member of the house
hold at William J. Wheeler's. He is
survived by two sisters, Augusta NJ,
wife of James Il. Bumpus, and Nellie
O., wife of John P. Penley. Another
sister, Adelaide, died about nineteen
years ago.
The remains were brought to Mr..
Wheeler's, and the funeral was held
there at O'Clock Thursday afternoon,
attended by Rev. Chester Gore Miller.
Burial was in Riverside Cemetery.

Leslie e. Bean Drowned.
LOSES HIS LIFE BY BREAKING THROUGH
THIN ICE.

The third drowning accident within
twenty eight months, In the waters oi
the Little Androscoggin at South Paris,
occurred Tuesday noon. Leslie E,
Bean, Is years of age, son and oldest
child of Edward c. Bean of Wheeler
Street, was the victim.
After getting out from the forenoon
session of school, Leslie, with Calvin
Morse, son Of Mr.. and Mrs. w. E.
Morse, had gone to the cove near the
Park Street bridge to skate little while
before dinner. As most South Paris
people know, this is long cove about
parallel with the channel of the river,
and opening at the lower end, 1t is prac-
tically dead water. For this reason It
freezes over early, and there bad been
skaters on it for several days, though
the river channel was not frozen over.
After Leslie got his skates on, he
started directly for the point at the low
er end of the cove. Calvin shouted to
him not to 60 out on the river, but he
either did not hear or did not heed, for
be made no response but kept on, and
went through the thin ice at the edge Of
the river channel.
Calvin was unable to reach him, and
ran as fast as he could to the house of
Geo. B. Crockett, which is the nearest
to the scene. Mr.. Crockett and his son,
Ernest P. Crockett, hurried to the place,
but though they had some boards and
rope, were unable to get out on the Ice
to where the boy was. Others of the
neighbors quickly gathered, and q. A.
Morton, who had canoe at his house,
brought that, and with it the body of
the boy was recovered. The canoe,
launched in the water, was padded clear
to the boy without difficulty, showing
how little ice there was at that place.
For some reason, though the water is
quite deep at that point, the boys body
near the surface and in sight.
DR.. Stewart had been summoned by
telephone and arrived as soon as pos
sible, but the boy had been In the water
too long for any measures to be OF avail.
The accident occurred few minutes
after twelve o'clock, and it was some
where from twenty to thirty minutes
later when the body was taken from the
water. 1t was taken at once to the home
on Wheeler Street.
DR.. II. L. Bartlett of Norway, medical
examiner, was summoned, but consid-
cred no action necessary.
Leslie was pupil in the seventh
grade, at the brick school house, and
was a member of Wesley Hammond's
class in the Baptist Sunday School.
Besides Mr.. and Mrs. Bean, two sisters
Of the drowned boy survive, both young
or than he.
The funeral was held Thursday after
noon, and was attended by Rev. Insley
A. Bean of Lewiston, a friend and for
mer neighbor of the family. Burial was
in Oak Hill Cemetery, Auburn.
