Alberto Dubois. six. yearold son of Mr.
and Mrs. George Dubois OF st. Johns
bury, who was missing Sunday from his
home, following the departure of the
funeral procession of Sister Tanphilus,
it has since been learned, took the train
north, but was put off at Lyndonyille
because he had no money for his fare.
He wandered away from the station and
was found by Philo Lang two miles
from Lyndonville suffering from the ex-
IRENE cold weather. Monday morning
the youngster was returned to his home.
William B. Hayes, a painter for the
Z. r. 4 II. X. Ide company in st. Johns
bury, received concussion of the brain
night, when he was thrown
from stepladder, striking on his head,
Mr.. Hayes was working outside. He is
in serious condition.
The two-year-old child of Mr.. and Mrs.
Philip Guilmette of Lunenburg received
burns last week which will probably
cause its death. 1t pulled hot stove lid
onto its stomach, which set fire to its
clothes. The father was away at work
and the mother, who is quite deaf, was
put of the room at the time.

Mourners

Peabody, Mass, Oct. 3O.-This busy

cry to-day to pay silent tribute to the
memory of the 2l little girls who lost
their lives in the fire which destroyed
st. Johns parochial school Thursday.
The parents of three of the children
elected to have their little ones buried in
private, but the Is others were accorded
the solemn homage of a public mass in
ST. Johns Roman Catholic church, which
could not hold all who wished to attend
The supply of carriages in town was ex-
and many citizens gave the
use Of their automobiles to make room
for the long line of mourners.

crushed almost to prcstration under the

R. M. Harvey Before Coun-

Fish G. -e 4
WARP 4S TESTIFY
- IS TO FINDINGS
Case Comes Back After the
Supreme Court Over
ruled Demurrer

The case of state VS.. r. M. Harvey, pos
sessing short trout, was commenced at 3
o'clock yesterday afternoon in county
court and the case will probably be fin
ished sometime to-day, as there are but
five witnesses, including the respondent,
to be examined.
The respondent was arrested June 2S,
1913, after he had been accosted by Game
Wardens III. o. Kent and B. NJ. Shepard
near Sabin crossing. Five trout were
taken from the pail of fish in Mr.. Har-
vey's possession and are alleged by the
state to have been under the prescribed
length of six inches. Before Acting City
Judge b. 4. Bailey, the respondent was
found guilty and fined $50 and costs. An
appeal was taken to county court and a
demurrer on the complaint was filed.
This was oyerruled and the matter went
to supreme court, where an opinion was
read, remanding the case to county court
to be tried on its merits.
Three witnesses for the state were ex-
amined yesterday afternoon, namely, H.
0. Kent, B, NJ. Shepard and former Coun-
ty Game Warden Abbott.
The first two witnesses testified to hav-
ing met Mr.. Harvey at Sabin's crossing
and caused him to empty his string of
trout on the grass. Five fish, minus
their heads were taken by Warden Kent
to his store, where they were measured
and placed on ice. He testified that a
trout exactly six inches in length was
procured and the five other trout were
placed alongside for comparison. Three
1f the alleged short trout measured four
and one-half inches and the other two
'our and one-quarter inches. The head
IF trout six inches long was then meas
Ired and found TO. be one and quarter
inches in length.
This morning the state rested and the
lefense placed the respondent on the
tand. Sworn with Mr.. Harvey was
lieut. Gov. Hale X. Darling, who will
follow him on the stand. The
testified, after objections by
he state, that he was accompanied by
fr. Darling on the fishing trip which pre-
eded his apprehension for having alleged
hort trout. They fished two DAYS, part
{ the time on a brook in the village OF
The respondent is repre-
nnted by Attorneys John H. Senter and
William Lord.

AT T$350000 FIRE
Biddeford, Me-, Storehouse
Partially Destroyed

To-day
HELP SUMMONED
FROM NEARBY PLACES
Pepperell Manufacturing Co.
Was the Loser-Fire
Ragged for Hours

Biddeford, Me-, Oct. 30.--A loss esti
mated at $35ooo0 was caused by fir,
which swept through half the large store
house of the Pepperell Manufacturing
company early this morning, destroying
several thousand bales of raw cotton and
much of the finished product.
The origin of the fire is attributed
either to spontaneous combustion or to
the falling of spark, unobserved, into
a bale of cotton before the cotton was
placed in the building.
One fireman was badly hurt by falling
from ladder. The fire started on the
third floor of the building, which is five
stories high, and the flames became so
that the fire department
summoned help from Saco, Portland and
Old Orchard. 1t was several hours be-
fore the fire was brought under control.
The building was of brick.
