Bill Luyster to
Join Gardiner;
JumpsL

Bill Luyster leading sticker and captain
of the Lawrence club of the Eastern
League, who for the past six years has
played right field for this club and who
during that time was considered one of
England and Eastern Leagues. has jump
ed that CLUB to play with the Gardiner
team of the Trolley League.
Luyster played his last game for Law
renee against New London Thursday aft
ernoon and just previous to the game an
nornced that he would quit the team
that night, and when Manager John j.
O'Hara of the club learned of his depart
ure he Immediately suspended the player
and started on the hunt for new out
fielder to take his place. Before his de-
parture Luyster, according to the Law
renee papers, had a long talk with Wheel
er B. Fuller out in right field, presumably
to induce the crack pitcher to accompany
him to the same club.
The Lawrence papers state that the
efforts to get Luyster started few
days ago when he received a letter
from Alex. Pearson, the old Lawrence
manager, who is with the Gardiner
Club, urging him to come to Gardi-
ner and offering him some money to
join the club. Following that, he was
visited by Harry Lord who, made the
trip to Lawrence to talk the matter
over last Tuesday. When Luyster was
in Portland several weeks ago on the
last appearance of the Lawrence club,
it was known then that he would
jump later While here a friend Of
Manager Merrill approached Luyste"
on the proposition Of going up to Gar
diner on the day that Barrows and
Lord joined the club but Luyster
stated that he would not want to go
then as the club was behind to him
in salary and it would not do for him
to go until hea received the money due
him. He said that he might consider
a proposition when he received his
money to date. for departure before
that would forfeit his right to that due
him. So the matter went along until
last week when the Lawrence club
was paid.

Gov. BRUMbAuCH
AT 4TH DISTRICT
MEETING, BANGOR
Plenty Excitement Promised, As
Five Candidates Come Before
Convention Seeking Nomina-
tion for Congress in Guern.
sey's Place

Bangor. Me-. Aug. e.-Bangor is in
for plenty Of excitement on Tuesday
when Republican delegates from
Aroostook. Piscataquis and Penobscot
counties. which make up the 4th Con-
gressional District. will gather to name
a candidate to succeed CONGRESSMAN
Frank A. Guernsey. who declined a re-
nomination to be a candidate for the
nomination as senator
Gov. Brumbaugh Of Pennsylvania
will give an address on national is
sues.
Five candidates will come before the
convention. The Aroostook candidates
are Hon. Ira G. Hersey and Hon. Al
bert A. Burleigh, both Of Houlton. Mr..
Eersey was a defeated candidate for
the senatorial nomination, but made
such a good showing in this district
that he thinks he has ample grounds
for asking support. Hon. Albert A.
Burleigh is a brother of the late sena-
tor. He was one Of the fathers OF the
Bangor & Aroostook Railroad and has
long been in politics.
Col. I. X. Stetson Of Bangor, the last
to enter the fight, is a bank president
and timberland owner, has had legis-
lative experience and campaigns on the
general issue Of wide experience in
business.
Hugo Clark is a Bangor lawyer, who
for years has been one Of the wheel
horses Of the party in the district,
stumping the State in several cam
paigns.
Betram L. Smith Of Patten, in Pc
nobscot county. has served in the State
Legislature several terms and is known
as an orator.
Political experts are at loss to pre-
dict the outcome. It is generally be-
!ieved that Mr.. Hersey will have the
big end Of the Aroostook delegation
and that Col. Stetson will have the cali
in Penobscot county, while Mr.. Smith s
strength, on the first ballot. is prob
lematical. He claims to have a large
second-choice following.

Portland, Me-, Aug. 6.-University Of
Maine will get two Of the best athletes

Boston, in Walter Verder, a 44O-yard dash
and relay man, and Cecil Shum, a runner

ton last year in the running game and

Billy McVicar's B. A. A. relay team, as
should Shum, who was a former Medford
High track captain before he entered
the Huntington school. They are both
friends of charley Ziegler. the former
Huntington school athlete who entered
Maine last year and who ran the dashes
for Coach Smith last spring. They tell
Charlie that they have decided to cast
their lot with Maine next year as they
think track athletics there promising and
they are anxious to get hitched up with
q good coach, so chose this institution.
They will be well received by McVicar
and can be well used. A trio Of quarter
milers like Mcbride. last years veteran,
and these two new men, Shum and Yer
der, should be able to place Maine in the
40 safe and sound at Orono next May.

EARLY ARREST IS
EXPECTED IN the
BAR HARB0R CASE
Investigation Reveals That Mrs.
Turnbull Was Murdered with
a Flatiron suspect Under
Surveillance

Bar Harbor. Me-, Aug. 6.-An early ar.
rest is expected in connection with the
brutal murder on Friday Of Mrs. Emma
Turnbull. an Otter Creek. Mt. Desert,
widow with eight children.
The police are keeping one suspect un-
der close surveillance. and search of his
home has been made. The police decline
to make known the identity Of the sus-
pect or the reasons they have for suspect
ing him. A report that blood-stained
clothing has been found in his house Is
denied by the police, though the reports
to that effect are persistent.
Insane Man Suspected
A theory has been advanced that the
crime was committed by an insane per-
son and the police have apparently ac-
cepted 1t tentatively while searching for
clues that will definitely establish guilt.
Working on the theory that an insane
person is at large, a posse of armed men
guarded the homes of other women in the
village Saturday night. Passing automo-
bies are being held up and the occupants
questioned Guards have also been sta
toned at the boat landing to arrest any
suspicious persons.
There seems little foundation for q
robbery theory, because Mrs Turnbul;
had difficulty in earning enough mon
ey to keep her family and home intact.
Her son, Howard, however, had just re-
ceived his monthly wages and some
people believe that some person may
have been acquainted with the fact
and attempted to get the money when
surprised by Mrs. Turnbull.
1t was learned Saturday in the in
vestigation that Mrs. Turnbull was
beaten to death with f1atiron. One
f1atiron, with bloodstains and hair upon
it, was found in the kitchen near
where her blood-stained apron was
found, and another was found in a
field a short distance from the place the
body was found. at the foot Of I tree.
The second flatiron was also covered
with blood and hair.
An effort made to trail the murderer
with a keenly trained Belgian police
dog belonging to Alesandro and Ernes-
to G. Fabbri of New York, summer
residents Of Bar Harbor, failed, owing
to the dampness of the wet and foggy
morning. They were accompanied ~

ASK APPEAL TO
GOV. CURTIS IN
FARMER CASE

Portsmouth. N. H.. Aug. e.-Governor
spaulding was called upon to investigate
fully the recent removal from a sanato-
rum here Of Miss Sarah J. Farmer, who
formerly directed the Greenacre confer
ence at Eliot, Maine, in a letter addressed
to him tonight by William e. Chandler Of
Concord. Asserting that he was acting
without compensation in the matter, Mr.
Chandler charged that Miss Farmers
right to her home In Eliot was in con-
tempt Of the supreme court Of New
Hampshire. which he said had adjudi-
Gated her status" and that the alleged
offence was aggravated by the fact that
officers Of the law assisted in it. He ask
ed Governor Spaulding to appeal to Gov
ernor Curtis Of Maine for aid in connec-
ton with the case.
According to newspa apermen who visited
Miss Farmer at her home today, she as
serted that she was now happy ana

The Board Fence.
Baltimore starr

There should be an express prohih1-

of board fence within the city limits.

building ban as a fire preventive. The
same structure should be levied upon
this back yard abomination. In,
declaration that the board fence 10 q

tolerated. Health Commissioner Blake
is doing this progressive community 4

farther in this direction. however, and,
promote the introduction Of IN ordi-
nance in the city council which will
Prevent the erection of all such struc.
lures in the future.
Advanced municipal thought his
declared that the board fence must be
relegated to the realms Of antiquity.
In our growing suburbs education and
experience have done much toward
the complete elimination Of this un-
necessary structure, but it still re-
mains for the property owner in the
cid city to adopt the idea. A prohibi-
ton ordinance would tend to promote
this condition.
Residential congestion in the city
has compelled construction by solid
blocks with the result that there are
few front lawns. The back yard y
the only home breathing spot, and
whether it be large or small it should
be made as attractive as possible.
Not only would clear vista Of a
block improve the civic beauty Of the
neighborhood, but there would be
tendency to enhance property values.
There are numerous arguments In
favor Of an ornamental barrier; there
are none in favor Of the board fence.
The municipality is undertaking the
improvement Of alleys and small
streets, and the property owner should
extend the improvement by removing
his fence. Unless some general In
dividual effort is made in tho diree-
ton the various improvement and
civic organizations should formulate
plans looking to concerted community
action.
