Fair Notes

Among the visitors of Wednesday was
Secretary Gilmore of the Central Maine
Fair at Waterville.
Hiram and Harold Carter of Hallowell
were visitors to the fair Wednesday.
The wrestling show proved one of the
most popular on the Midway. The antics
of the proprietor and the prospect held
out of seeing a really good wrestling
match appealed to the people and every
show was we'll attended.
The dog and pony show was a Mecca
for the young folks and they seemed TO
thoroughly enjoy the program presented.
A long yellow and black racing auto
mobile came speeding up Main street
during the afternoon, making to the in
experienced eye of the pedestrian some
80 miles an hour-perhaps more An
officer saw it coming and sprang into
the middle of the road. wildly waving
his arms. The car slowed down, but
not quickly enough to avoid making the
officer back out of it's way. Then it
chased him clear to the sidewallk-he
scrambling nimbly to get out of its way.
For the first time the officer and highly
amused spectators saw the driver-a very
attractive and highly amused girl beside
very serious and apparently frightened
young man. But the officer was goo /
sport; he laughed, too. He didn't want
to arrest her. but felt it his duty She
showed him her license proudly, explain
ed that she had lust had it a day." and
declared she was going but eight miles
an hour. The spectators, especially the
males, confirmed this stattment when ap-
pealed to. The young man presented 4
card to the incredulous officer promised
to attend to her case and they shot
away into Barkerville a little faster
even than that first Eight miles an
hour"

The transfer was made in connec-
ton with a general REORGANIZATION OIL
such Importance that it has stirred
the nation deeply.
The Grand Duke replaces the fam
ous viceroy of the Caucasus, Count Won
Vorontzoff- Dashkoff. Emperor Mich
olas addressed TO the count commu-
nication acknowledging the value or
his labors, and stating that he yields
TO his request to be permitted to de-
vote his energies to work for which
his state of health is more equal.
The Emperor, therefore, relieves him
of tn epost of viceroy and attaches
him to his personal staff.
In relieving the grand duke. the En-
peror addressed communication 10
him which read as follows:
"At the beginning of the war l was
unavoidably prevented from following
the inclination of my soul to put my
self at the head of my army. That
was why I entrusted you with the

and sea forces.

Imperial Highness has given proof
during the war of a steadfast brav-
cry which has caused a feeling of pro-
found confidence and called forth the
sincere good wishes of all who fol-
lowed your operations through the IN
eyitable vicissitudes of war.
my duty to my country. which has
been entrusted to me by God. impels
me today. when the enemy has pene-
trated into the interior of the empire,
to take supreme command of the ac-
tive forces and to share with the army
the fatigue of war and to safeguard
with it Russian soil from attempts of
the enemy The ways of Providence
are inscrutable, but my duty and my
desire determine me in my resolution
for the good state.
THE invasion of the enemy on the
western front. which necessitates the
greatest possible concentration OF
civil and military authorities as well
as the uniflcation of command in the
field. has turned our attention from
the southern front. At this moment
I recognize the necessity of your as
sistance and councils on the southern
front and l appoint you viceroy of the
Caucasus and commander in chief OF
the valiant Caucasian army.
Il express to Your Imperial High
ness my profound gratitude and that
of the country for your labors dur
ing the war"

providing work and small remunera-
ton for the unemployed, is being put
into practice by many municipalities
throughout the country The plan is
to provide temporary. relief for the
deserving who are out Of work by
giving them something to do for the
public veal. This plan discovers the
worthy and eliminates the profess
sional able-bodied beggars from con-
sideration The Dague plan passed
the State Legislature at one time and
came near becoming State law
That bill contains many good feat
ures but is of local and sectional
nature. After many years study and
observation, came to the conclusion
that there should be Federal or Ma
tional law enacted providing work
for the unemployed. I therefore
prepared bill 'to organize the un-
employed into an industrial army
under the management of the Sec
rotary of Labor. Their labor would
be expended in irrigating desert
lands, dykeing rivers, constructing
highways short, working at any
jobs Uncle Sam had to do. Senator
Poipdexter, at my request, has intro
duCed my bill into the United States
Senate and it is now in the hands of
a committee.
Quite recently the Saturday Even
ing Post, of Philadelphia, abiding to
the proposition to pay $1OO,OOO,OOO
to increase our army and navy, said:
In the last ten years the United
States has expended two hundred and
fifty millions of dollars, annually, on
our army and navy, and now we are
told that our army is trifingly inef-
hclent and our warships fit only for
old junk"
A magazine writer says of each 81
OF Uncle Sans income he has. for
ten years, paid out IS cents for the
army and navy"
The newspapers say there are now
in the United States several millions
OF working people out of employment
and suffering. From my viewpoint
our Uncle Samuel could consistently
and 'constutionally'' do something
to save life and property as to expend
such oceans of wealth to maintain a
lot of military men in idleness whose
profession is to destroy life and
property.
If my Industrial Army bill were
enacted and put in force, every un-
employed man and woman in the
United States would be given work at
a fair wage until they could do bet
ter, billions of wealth would be
added to Uncle Sans possessions.
Vast mountains of poverty, suffering,
crime and death, would be prevented.
Labor strikes, riots and killing of
working people would be horrors of
the past, and possible terrible revo-
luton and war between the property
less and capitalists averted.
I request every reader of the fore
going to send for my bill and if you
approve it, do what you can to create
public sentiment in it's favor.

I was giving myself into a life of
conservation and service for my
Master. But after l took the black
veil they told me plainly that I was
to be to the priests what the concu-
bines were to Solomon and David and
other men of old Bible time They
forced me to do this. Many time
l have cried out in my misery, My
God, my God why hast thou forsaken
me?' l came to you for refuge, hop
ing that you would help me and as
sist me in returning to my friends.
I have parents and other relatives
in the East, but l do not dare to re-
turn to them, as the first time I es-
capped I took refuge with them and
their houses were burned down over
their heads
After listening to her story we
asked her if she would object if we
asked her some personal questions.
She replied: 81 will answer them
for you, but if the Catholics find out
that l have told you anything they
will persecute and kill me- At one
time | was poisoned by the Catholics
and nearly died. The doctors who
saved my life told me 1 was poisoned
but they did not make it known for
fear of persecution by the Catho-
lies"
Mr.. Myers: Are the nuns who
have taken the white veil only forced
into prostitution?
Nun-"No. Until I took the black
veil 1 was happy in my choice of life
and supposed I was giving my life
to a holy cause"
Mr.. Myers: what do they do
after you have taken the black veil?"
Nun" Many things too horrible
to relate"
Mrs. Seymour-"Are there any
children born to the nuns by the
priests?"
Nun-"Yes; many of them
Mrs. Seymour-"What do they do
with them?"
Nun-"M Many of them are muir
dered at birth, while many others
are sent to the Catholics orphan
homes and there trained up to be-
come nuns and priests"
Mr.. Myers-"Are there many Pro-
testant children attending the Cath
Ollie schools?"
Nun-"Yes; about half of the
children are Protestants. 1t made
my heart ache to see so many chill
dren from Protestant homes whose
parents were unaware Of the awful
risk they were taking"
The nun then stated that at Mt.
Angel, in the public school Of that
place, Sister Margaret and Sister Jo-
hannah Baptist taught in their re-
ligious CARDS in the school room, and
also taught Roman Catholic doctrine
after school hours from the cate
chism
She stated that she knew posi-
lively that the Roman Catholics had
as their aim to secure the control
of the United States government,
especially since they had lost their
foothold in the governments of
Europe.

THREE MEN DROWNED
 IN MASS. CARNIVAL
Float on Charles River Swamped- Men Weighted With Armor
 Jump Into River.

Waltham, Mass, Aug. 27.-Three men were drowned last night as a re- suit of the swamping of a float which had taken part in a carnival on the Charles river, two hours after it had passed in review before the state eX- ecutives, who are attending the an- nual conference of governors in Bos- ton. The lives of twenty other per- !, sons were imperilled in the accident to this float and in the capsizing of another. The dead arc: William Chase, John Caine and Joseph Mcguire.
 They were members of a party of fourteen men and one woman, who had parts on a float called "Charity," which the local lodge of Elks con- tributed to the carnival. When the float began to take in water eight of the men jumped overheard, some weighted with armor which had been part of their costumes. Those who remained on the float were quickly taken off by canoeists.
 In the meantime a second float con- taining fifteen members of the car nival committee overturned at an- other point on the river All those aboard were thrown into the water, but so far as is known all were picked up by the crowds of canoeists who f1Ocked to the scene.

 All went well until they accidentally came over what was evidently the headquarters of the German aviation section, where they could see prep- arations being made for their receD> ton, with supposed valuable inforna- tiOn about the Russian positions There was an aWkard moment as they were over the aerodrome, for they were flying very low and Ger man officers were not slow to note curious movtments of supposed Ger man plane, whose duty it was to land swiftly and expedite it's report to headquarters.
 When it became evident that this Grman machine had no intention of landing and looked as if it were try ing to edge upwards and away, the Germans suspected a trick, and com municated with the guns. The Rus sians had an exciting moment or two before they were out of range, but they eventually got back safely.

War Theoretically Declared Against United States By European Power
 About 5000 men in Maneuvers.

Plattsburg, N. Y, Aug. 27.-A week
 of war practice upon which the regi-
 r1ent of business and professional men
 at the camp of instruction embarked
 today constitutes part of an elabo-
 rate theoretical war with European
 power. According to the plan this
 power recalled it's ambassador on
 August 16 and the United States goV-
 ernment ordered the concentration of

 and one brigade of the New York
 militia at Albany. Troops of other coast states were directed to assemble their troops along the frontier to be reinforced by attachments of regular cavalry and field artillery and by the
 militia of central states.
 War was theoretically declared by the European power yesterday and the commanded of the first brigade at Elattsburg received information that the Red armyof invasion has crossed the Canadian border, seized the rail- road junction at Rouse's Point, N. Y.,
 and has taken Malone, N. Y. The commander of the Blue army of de- fense, of which the business mems regiment is a part, decided to advance against the enemy at Rouse's Point tefore he could be reinforced from Malone.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
 Petrograd, July BOA well known Russian scientist, a professor in one of the universities, has recently dis tinguished himself at the front as an air scout He went with the army to Galicia as a volunteer, and while there interested himself in aviation, becoming a very useful observation officer by reason of his scientific knowledge.
 A few days ago 8 German plane, apparently by mistake, descended be- hind the Russian lines, and the pi- lot and observation officer were promptly taken prisoners, before they even had an opportunity to destroy or wreck their machine.
 The professor, with a military pi- lot, immediately saw his chance and climbed into the captured aeroplane They rose as rapidly as possible in or der to escape any firing from their own side and made for the German lines. Having flown at first at a con-
