The many friends of J. A. Jameson
of Lynn, Mass, formerly of Ellis
worth, will regret to hear of his
death, which occurred at a hospital in
Lynn last week. Uncle John" as
he was familiarly called, was a fav-
orite among young and old on ac-
count of his genial manner and quick
wit, ever ready with an original
answer or pleasant story. When a
young man he joined the Lygonia
lodge, F. and A. NJ, but on moving
to Massachusetts transferred to Mt.
Carmel lodge, Lynn, where his family
now resides. He was brother of G.
Byron Jameson and Mrs. Greenly
Smith, all three passing away within
year. He leaves a sister, Mrs. C.
E. Cousins, of this city.
County Agent Bridges, while at the
Eastern States exposition in SPRING
field, Mass, judged or estimated with
thousands of others, a herd of cows
on their production for the past
year. The winner of this contest
was to receive a pure-bred Jersey
calf. When the final results were
/ tabulated, it was found that County
Agent Bridges had come the closest
of the several thousands of people in
estimating the total production of
the herd, coming within two pounds
of the actual figures, and he won the
calf. AS Mr.. Bridges has no use for
the calf at this time, he sold it on the
exposition grounds.

Mrs. o. w. Tapley of Ellsworth, is in

Eugene Tapley, in Belfast, suffering
from injuries received in an automo-
bile accident last Tuesday evening.
Paul, who is employed in a bank in
Belfast, was driving his fathers
small runabout, when a forward tire
came off on a turn, and the car
turned over. The young man with
him escaped injury, and Paul insisted
that he was not hurt, though some
what dazed. They were picked up
by another car and taken TO Belfast,
and his companion left Paul in his
room. 1t was nearly 10 o'clock the
following forenoon, when his com
panion of the evening before. learn
ing that Paul had not appeared at
the bank in the morning, started an
investigation, and Paul was found in
his room, unconscious. The people
with whom he boarded were away
from home. His left collar bone is
broken, and he received a severe blow
on the head, but it is hoped no seri-
Gus consequences will result from
this.
