SHERIFF FRANK A. CUSHMAN

more universally regretted and mourned
than that of Sheriff Frank A. Cushman,
who died at his home on Congress street
at about 1C p. m, Sunday. Although ill
several years with diabetes and recently
enduring several ill turns from severe
pains in his heart, the end was not ex-
pected SO soon, even in the family circle.
If he knew, he spared others the sorrow.
For several days, including Sunday, he
had been at the home farm in Montville
to assist in the rush of haying, but had
not overworked. Sunday night he re-
tired early, but awoke about g. 80 severely

stimulants but in alarm called Deputy

Tapley arrived but Mr.. Cushman passed
away few minutes later. Mr.. Cush-
man was as gentle as he was just. He
knew no fear in fulfilling his duty as
high sheriff of the county. No one could
bear influence enough to compromise
with him, in the least, but even the pris-
oners in his custody respected him and
parted with him on friendly terms. His
word was as good as his note and in the
family circle his life was an ideal one.
His going is loss to the city, the county
and the State. For eight years he had
served as Republican sheriff and was

elections included men of all political
opinions. Mr.. Cushman was born in
Montville May 81, 1860, the son of Isaac
and Helen (Blake) Cushman. He was
educated in the town schools and in self
study. When young man he married
Miss Ellen L. Myrick of Montville, who
survives him with two nephews and a
niece, children of his late brother, Har-
old, Chester and Cassie Cushman, all OF
Montville. He looked upon them as his
own children. On coming to Belfast Mr..
Cushman sold his interest in the general

HOan Defiantly Answers May Day
 Plea of League

New York, Feb. 28. Mayor Daniel Hoan, Milwaukee, today replied to the request of the National Security League for his cooperation in the na- tion-wide celebration of May 1, as American day" as opposed to rad ical demonstrations annually held on May Day." by declaring he will "very probably head parade of our local workers to demand restora- tion of our American rights and lib critics"
 "The purpose of our celebration of May Day differs slightly from yours," wrote Mayor Hoan. q am much in sympathy with the local workers in their attempt to organize real American demonstration for May Day, when, am told, they will demand q restoration of American rights and liberties"
 Referring to the "liberty crowd", he declared that lat your back the legislature of the state of New York has made mockery of constitutions al rights and representative gov ernment by barring five socialists assemblymen without even q protest from your profiteering supporters"

Fuel Administration
 is Continued by |,
 Presidents Order

Washington, Feb. 2S.--Coincident with the signing of the railroad bill tonight, President Wilson issued executive orders providing for con- tinuation of the powers of the fuel but dividing them be- tween the director general of rail- roads and a committee of four.
 Director General Hines will retain jurisdiction over domestic distribu- ton while the commission will handle bunker and export coal matters.
 The commission will be composed of A w. Howe, Rembrant Peale, F. F. Whitaker and J. F. Fisher. It will function thru the Tidewater Coal Exchange, which is restored for that purpose. having been suspended be- fore the resignation of Director Gar field as fuel administrator.
 The order creating the commission is effective until April 30 next. The order says the selection was taken "because of the present emergency and in order to insure an adequate supply and equitable distribution: and to facilitate the movement, and to prevent 1ocally or generally, scar city of coal"
 The second order, investing MT. Hines with the power of fuel ad- ministrator so far as domestic dis tribution is concerned said doubt had arisen as to whether he could continue to exercise these powers after the return of the railroads to pr;y ate control. A new order was tAt refore executed extending MT Hines authority beyond the date of the return.
