waterville was treated to some fire.
works Tuesday night which were not on
the program. During the storm limb OF
a tree on Center street came in contact
with one Of the high voltage wires of the
Central Maine Power Co. and the wire
was broken and thrown into the street.
For the next few minutes there was a
continuous series Of flashes going up and
down the street and at one time it looked
as though there was ball of fire jump
ing from pole to pole along the street.
The lights in that section Of the town
were put out Of commission and people
gave the street wide berth. Electricians
from the company were hurried to the
scene and the break was repaired. The
lights in the houses were restored in
about one-half hour but the street lights
along College avenue were out for the
remainder Of the night.

WATERv|LLE Man
DISCHARGED BY
PORTLAND JUDGE

Portland. Me-. Aug. 9.-William McCar-
thy, Waterville printer, was this morn
ing found not guilty by Judge Bates in
the municipal court on the charge Of hav-
Ing stolen the sum of $24.s3 from the per-
son Of CharlesJ. Harmon in a Free
street lodging house on August 1 and
was ordered discharged. Harmon claimed
that Mccarthy came to his room on the
night in question and after plying him
with liquor picked his pockets, securing
the sum named in the complaint. McCar-
thy denied most emphatically that he had
ever robbed Harmon and that the only
time he had ever been in the mans room
was in company with another young man
and that they had seen no money upon
that occasion. McCarthy's story appealed
20 Judge Bates as being the truth and he
ordered the young man discharged. FL
ton H. Thompson was attorney for the
defence.

for Russia and has visited the prison
camps of nearly all the countries at
war.
Germany Has 10000
DR.. Mott said that of the prisoners
Germany has the greatest number,
approximately 100000. Russia with
about 100000 comes next. then Aus
tria with 100000. followed in order
by France Italy, Great Britain and

added, 100000 passed through Kiev.
