SOM time ago we made mention
OF evidences of civilization observed
upon an Indian who appeared upon
u streets with a pair of suspenders
TO hold up his b~reechclout. Yester-
day the other sex contributed some
thing TO the stock of indications that
the red man is fast becoming white.
A squaw paraded the streets carry
ing a parasol. The satisfaction to
be derived from this evidence OF civ
~iliZation was somewhat modified
when she stopped in front of the
p~ostoffice to take a chew of tobacco.
Her complexion was preserved, how
ever.

COCCHI RESORTS TO THE

Bologna, June 2S.-An effort will
probably be made to have Alfredo
Cocchi. the slayer of Ruth Cruger, in
New York, undergo a mental exam
nation. Signor Venturini, Cocchi's
attorney, believes such an examina-
ton is indispensable as he Is of the
opinion that the man is not entirely
responsible for his actions. Accord
ing to the defense even Cocchi's be-
havior in prison is not that of an en-

BOXING BOUTS TO BE
HELD IN SHIPPING CITY

Bath Me. Oct. 4.-One of the pieces
of business transacted Wednesday
night at the aldermen's meeting will
be of special interest to the sport low
ing men of Bath and particular those
interested in boxing.
William Mcmahon of Portland pc
titioned for q permit to hold boxing
entertainment in Bath. With six al
dermen and the mayor present at the
meeting all voted in favor of granting
the permit including Mayor Small, ex-
cept Alderman Eugene McGrath, who
stated he had conscientiously voted as
a matter of personal principle.
Aldermen Covel, Thompson, Peas
lee and Tobey spoke in favor of the
permit being granted.
Alderman Covel called attention to the
fact that Mr.. Mcmahon, on one account,
had been led to try to put on a boxing
show in Bath through the fact that an
officer of Fl, Baldwin had written to the
Portland man requesting him to stage
some boxing contests in this city as the
soldiers at FIT. Baldwin are very much in
terested as boxing fans and have some
very fine talent among both the regulars
and the Bath company as boxers and they
would take part.
This communication evidently had a
great deal of weight with the aldermen
and the more so as the aldermen felt I'M
der some sense of gratefulness to the men
from Ft. Baldwin for turning out so we'll
and parading with the great farewell re
ception given men Of the National Army
Wednesday forenoon.
Alderman Peaslee in speaking in ia
vor of the permit being granted said:
While there may have been A time
in the past when I would have felt 7
should help reject a petition Of this
kind. I can see that our city of Bath
Is changing and we are becoming more
Of cosmopolitan city. a city Of newer
ideas and men Of different ideas have
come among us to work. In nearly ev-
cry industrial city in New England
these boxing exhibitions are being per-
mitted and are regarded as furnishing
wholesome entertainment for all class
es of citizens and workers.
Mr. Mcmahon isl pleased to have a
chance to put on an exhibition in Bath
and is inspecting three different places
where the mills could he put on He
would like to secure the Columbia
theatre If suitable arrangements could
be made.

When DR.. Cotton came in, Mr.. Thorn

"hut l have just come from the home
of a woman whose husband has died,
and there's nothing left to bury him
with I'm trying to raise enough to
cover the expenses of the funeral Can
you give me fifteen dollars toward it?"
William Thornton knit his brows.
Wasn't it less than two weeks ago
that gave you twenty-i five dollars to
help pay a hospital bill for some one ?"
he asked.
Yes it was" said DR.. Cotton.
We'll. when is this thing going to

is twentyfi five dollars for hospital fees,
another time it's ten dollars for coal.
another it's twenty for rent, and now
it's fifteen for funeral expenses. When
are you going to stop coming doctor"
DR.. Cotton looked him squarely in the
eye and answered, Il will stop coming
whenever YOU wish it, William. Do
you want me to stop coming when you
are amply able to help in such cases ?"
Mr.. Thornton thought a minute, and
then replied warmly. NO. doctor, T
don't want you to stop coming. I'd
grow AS selfish as the devil if you did.
Here's the money. and God bless YOU
in the use Of it. It's hard to keep
money from petrifying your feeling.

LAW COURT RESCRIPT

The following Androscoggin county
rescript in the case of Herbert ). Car :
Vile against P. E. Lane was handed
down Thursday by the law court:
Rescript, Bird, J. On report. rms
action on the case is brought by plain
tiff to recover damages for the de-
ceit or Misrepresentation of defendant
whereby it is alleged that defendant
fraudulent obtained property of plain =
tiff. The defendant pleaded the gem
eral issue and specially his discharge
in bankruptcy.
The plaintiff claimed that the alleged
property obtained by defendant was
notes. one of which was taken by
plaintiff in renewal of an earlier note
given for merchandise purchased of
the defendant and the other for mer-
chandise purchased many months ear
lier.
Where alleged false representations
were not communicated to the payee
until after taking and acceptance Of
a note, such acceptance cannot be held
to have been indeed by such repre-
sensations.
The taking Of a note by plaintiff in
renewal of another note induced by
false pretense Of the maker of the
note. does not constitute an obtaining
of property by false pretenses, as
excepted from the operation of dis
charge in bankruptcy under the Bank
ruptcy Act Of 1898 as amended.

REvoLTED ARABS
Joining with British in
Southern Palestine
Move Of Notable I'm
portance

New York, Oct. 4.-Interesting mill
tary possibilities in Palestine are fore
casted in advices from Mecca. as re-
ported in Arabic newspapers reaching
New York to the effect that the Arabs
in Arabia in revolt against the Turks
have effected junction with the Brit
ish army in southern Palestine.
The Arab revolt was making increas-
ed Roadway when the latest British Of

King Of the Hedjaz, as the new head
of the Arabian revolution is styled,
was then declared to be conducting
military operations on comprehensive
and we'll thought out scale.
The current advices state that the
railroad running parallel to the Red
sea is controlled by the Arabs as far
north as Maan.
1t is pointed out that the reported
Arab junction with the British whose
advance in Palestine is now in the vi
entity Of GAIA, is likely to prove OF
notable Importance as regards the oc-
cupation of Syria. With the close of
the hot rainless summer campaigning
is again possible and the Turks ap-
parently will have to cope not only
with the British on the south and west.
but with the Arabs on the south and
east A speedy report of concerted ac-
ton by the combined forces is fore
casted in the advices.

GERMANY is PRODUCING
SOME RAW MATERIAL

Amsterdam, Oct. 4.-Fears that Ger
many might possibly be unable to
continue fighting owing to the lack
of raw material have been answered
by Major General Schuech, the new
minister of munitions, who, according
to a despatch from Berlin. says:
Regarding the supply of raw ma
terials. particularly those required foY
the manufacture of guns and NUM-
tions, we are not dependent solely on
the stock in hand. which, moreover
would be insufficient. We have to
produce them and this production is
progressing satisfactorily"
General Schuech admitted that pro-
duction was interrupted temporarily
last year because of transport diff
culties. Although these seem to have
been overcome. the minister OF mu-
nitions expects a probable recurrence
the coming winter.
