MUNICIPAL COURT
Gus BoIduc Is Arraigned for Larceny
Found Not Guilty.

In answer to warrant sworn out by
Fred DUDE and charging him with the
larceny of 50 in United States currency,
Gus Bolduc was arraigned Wednesday
morning before Judge Lancaster of the
! municipal court, but the complainant
could find no proof to substantiate his
charge and the respondent was set free.
Bolduc upon being arraigned entered a
plea of not guilty. DUDE claimed in his
story to the court that Monday night,
March %, the date of the alleged lar
ceny, he and Bolduc occupied the same
room but slept in separate beds; that on
going to bed he had hung his coat and
vest, in which latter garment his money
was, on nail; that Tuesday morning he
arose first and went to the dining room
for breakfast; that before sitting down
to eat he removed his coat and vest and
hung them up; that Bolduc ate breakfast
with him; that after breakfast re missed
his money. that Bolduc had gone out of
the house but was called back by the
landlady and was found to have in his
possession $500. the money aside from the
change being five-dollar bill, two ones
and two. When asked what were the
denominations of the bills lost by him
DUDE said that there were nine one-dol-
lar bills.
Bolduc took the stand in his own be-
half and said that he had been working
in the woods. and told also how much
money he had earned. He said that he
had last Thursday paid the landlady his
Dill. giving her $40. and that she gave
MIN $6 in return. In the fact of the evil
dence which had been submitted the court
could see no reason for holding the re-
spondent and he was discharged.
Otter matters before the court consist
ed of one case of intoxication. in wbic,,
the respondent was found guilty and was
given sentence of 81 and costs of 80
days IN Jail, and the respondent promised
to pay.

Norman b. Hamilton, collector of Gus
toms.
DESPITE the coaling operations the fu-
ture Course of Capt. Thierichens remains
mystery. The coal he was permitted to
take aboard was measured by American
naval officers on the basis that itsWould
be sufficient to take the Eitel to the near
est German port. Bremen was the port
which figured in the official naval appor-
tionment.
One report that received much credence
tonight was that the German captain had
asked for a pilot. Another rumor was
that he wished to have his ship piloted
to the Norfolk navy yard to be informed.
Why he should desire so much fuel if he
intended to inferno was explained on the
ground that he wanted to make it appear
up to the very last minutes that he in
tended to SAIL in order to mold the Allies
warships off the Capes.

TIRED SOLONS

INVIGORATING
Joy Ride to Togus Makes Diff
ferent Men Of Two

A wave of excitement on upper Water
street early Wednesday evening had for
its cause two of the members of the An
droscogggin county delegation of the
Legislature who. becoming tired of the
hum-drum of the daily routine at the
state House, sought a change of scene
anu an opportunity for enjoying the
beauties of nature by indulging in a 10Y
ride out in the rural section of the city
in which is located the National Home
reservation.

air of early springtime laden as it is
With ozone. cannot but bring renewed
life and vigor to anyone who has been
working hard within doors, and that the
ride OF the two had an invigoraGng eff
feet would seem to be indicated by the
fact that on their return they We're SO
imbued with the exuberance of youth
which had been awakened during their
trip that they sought the New City Hotel
and proceeded to make themselves very
much at home in the dining room.
Mr.. Bigelow. the proprietor of the
house, undertook to demonstrate with
them because of their talk being more
forcible than elegant, but his efforts
were of no avail and as a last resort he
called in Night officer Corbett The two
would not accept the officers invitation
to leave the house and he promptly
took them out, their trip down the front
stairs to the street being made in a way
that was much more speedy than dig
nitied. The two were naturally much
vexed at being SO unceremoniously fired
out but were finally persuaded that the
best thing for them to do was to enter a
waiting automobile and be carried away
to. their boarding place

RAINE MARCH 6 AS AN ACT OF WAR

Paris. March 31.-(5.10 A. M.).-Ray-
mond Swoboda, one Of the passengers
aboard the French Line steamship La
at sea on March 9Th, has been arrested
charged with setting fire to the vessel,
according to the Matin.
Swoboda, the paper asserts, is suspect
ed of having "close relations with the
enemy" and correspondence found in his
rooms is said to indicate he had been
charged with the task of blowing up the
Touraine. He has been taken to Havre.
Investigations Of Experts
Investigations made by experts appoint
ed by Admiral Charlier, who Is conduct
ing the inquiry into the steamship fire,
has established, it is said, the fact that
the blaze aboard the Touraine must have
been caused by the explosion of some de-
tonating device. Statements made by pas
sengers and members of the crew support
this theory. The explosion was suffi-
GENTLY violent to wrench loose the doors
of cabins nearby. The authorities believe
the explosive had been placed with Grim.
