The Ladies' Sewing Circle meets at
Mrs. Julia Church's on Dec. 20.
Mrs. Laurinda Holmes

In the death of Mrs. Laurinda
Holmes, widow Of the late Selden
w. Holmes, the town and neighbour
hood feel they have met with an irrep-
arabic loss. Nearly her whole life has
been passed in this vicinity. She was
"a devoted wife and loving. self-sac-
rificing mother. She never mingled
much in society but was ever ready
with heart and hand to assist in every
good work. and as long as she was able
was ready to assist in times of illness
and sorrow, to administer the helping
hand and loving word Of encourage
ment. For the past two years she
passed the most of the time in Wins
low. with her daughter Mrs. Mary Rey-
nolds, where she had the best care of
loving hands and medical aid, that
could be obtained, but He that doeth
all things well took her to a fairer
home wheM signs are never heard and
tears are never shed. She leaves one
son, Carroll S., and Mrs. Alta Thomp-
son Of this town, Mrs. Dolly Harlow
and Mrs. Stella Cunliff Of Medford,
Mass, and Mrs. May Reynolds Of
Winslow and two sisters, Mrs. Alberta
Cunliff Of this town and Mrs. Sarah
Colby of Oakland, Calf, to whom the
sympathy Of all is extended in their
sorrow.

A Misunderstanding gun which appeared
in the window of Taber. Carey & Reed S
Hardware Store Wednesday attracted a
good deal Of attention, and has quite a
history. having been among the thou
sands of guns which were taken from
the Mexican Government arsenal at
Vera Cruz Immediately following the oc-
cupation of that city by Uncle Sans
marines. The gun was rescued from a
pile of condemned weapons which were
to be thrown into the bay, by a cousin
of Will Chase, and presented to Mr..
Chase to be used as an ornament. It
is a cheaply made smooth-bore. and
probably some "gun-runner" received q
good price for it. the graft going to the
officials who purchased this type of
weapon for the use of their ignorant
and credulous supporters.

EXPECT CONFESSION
FROM THE ACCUSED
Authorities Claim to be Tightening
Their Net Of Evidence Around
Hinterliter.

OLNEY, H., July 28.-Another dill
gent search was instituted today in
the woods around the scene of the
alleged murder of Elizabeth Rat
cliffe for second set of instruments
which the county authorities believe
Roy Hinterliter tried to use to perform
the Illegal operation which caused
the death of the Indiana girl.
Letters which passed between
Hinterliter and the girl are said to
show, the authorities say, that two
doctors were to operate upon her Fri
day night. Though refusing to state
positively, the authorities hint they
have evidence that the two doctors"
were boy friends OF Hinterliter.
Whether or not these friends will
testify cf having assisted Hinterliter
to perform the operation, the author
tiles refuse to say. The authorities
indicated however the chain Of evi-
dence is tightening about Hinteriter
and hope soon to have sufficient evil
dence to get confession II he Is the
guilty party.

NEW YORK. July 2S.-First for
NAL indication that Mexico will be
the main issue on which the republi-
cans will attack the Wilson admins
tratiOn in the presidential campaign
was contained In statement issued
today by National Chairman Wilcox.
The statement denied the republi-
can party's criticism Of the handling
of the Mexican problem was dictated
by any sinister influence" end bitterly
assailed Wilson's ''maladministratio
of affairs there.
The Wilcox statement was as fol-
lows:
"All statements made in news
papers or elsewhere to the effect that
the attitude of the republican party
towards the situation in Mexico is
dictated by any sinister influence,
corporate or otherwise are contrary
to the facts. Our interest in Mexican
affairs is the result solely and ex-
clusively of the maladministration of
American relations with Mexico and
the various Mexican factions. The
weakness OF the Wilson administra-
ton in dealing with the Mexican
question is so fully before the Ameri-
can people that it is vital issue in
this campaign.
ut is therefore, not possible for
the democratic party to eyade the
responsibility for conditions in
Mexico by ascribing Interior motives.
The issue is plain and clear cut. 1t
Is the principle of the republican
party to insist upon the full protec-
tion of American citizens and Ameri-
can rights"
