New York Young Men
Win Wager in Securing
Cub Bear on Maine Trip
After Much Travel by Automobile
and on Foot They Secure Object of
Their Quest in the Vicinity Of Shin
Pond-party Visits City on Home
ward Journey

The three young men from Long Is
land. y. Y. who visited in the city
the other evening on their way ny
automobile to the northern part OF
the State in quest OF bear cur ar
rived here Thursday evening on their
return home, bringing with them their
priZc--onc of the liVlieSt cub bears
seen here for some time. The young
men We're happy because they had
procured the animal and were reJolc-
ing because they had won the WAGER
of 500 that they had made in New
York to the effect that they would
return with a cub from TIE Wilds OF
Maine.
/ Robert Vincent, the leader of the
party, related their experiences IN en-
deavoring to secure bear in Maine
pointing out that the task was by no
means easy. Before leaving the city
on their quest, Mr.. Vincent and MS
companions, James HadSraft and
George Schieich secured the advice OF
Curator 7. \. James of the state
museem and some of the other tax
idermists and furriers. They then
Travelled in haste to Bangor, Mlllin-
ocket, Enfield, Norcross and Grind
stone. but did not even eaten
glimpse of bear.
AS they were about to leave the
state and proceed further north into
Canada, they met resident OF one
of the p-State forest towns, shin
Pond, and he assured them there we're
some bears in that vicinity. He went
along with them and after much NIX
ing they came to the place where the
object of their search was discover
ed.
The bear, male club Weighing
about 125 pounds, was Immediately
named Teddy" After feeding MN
with milk. bread and candy, the boys
got him without much trouble into
the automobile, homeward bound.
The cub was too vigorous, however,
and acted as if he meant to chew up
the car by degrees. so 4 rough crate
was made for him for his journey to
New York
At all the towns and cities Where
the automobile stopped TEDDY was
the center of attraction or admlrnS
groups, and he showed his worth by
performing stunts of begging and
climbing. He was very playful, brt
did not like in the least his first sight
of an electric car in the CITY. He paid
a visit at thu Journal Office Thursday
evening. and was later in the evening
n guest at the Augusta House. He is
always ready to sit up and shake
hands and quickly makes friends.
Mr.. Vincent stated that he and his
companions having won their bet, IN
tend to spend the 500 on the educa-
ton and general welfare OF Teddy
and expect him to lead high life
in New York.

RULING ON REVENUE
TAX ON ADJUSTMENTS

hon Frank j. Ham, collector of
internal revenue for the District of
Maine, Thursday received a com
munication from A. C. Holding, act
ing deputy commissioner Of internal
revenue at Washington, in reply to a
description OF case noted at an
amusement park where the sign dis
played reads Tickets 13c, War Tax,
&c instead Of showing the admission
or an established price and total,
and asking whether or not proprie-
signs of this nature.
You are advised that as the price
of the tickets OF admission and the
tax applying thereon are being in
dicated to the patrons even though
the sign does not state the establish
ed price in express terms, as such.
it is considered that no compromise
offer need be required says the
communication Of Acting Deputy
Commissioner Holden. .
However, the proprietor's atten-
ton should be called to his infrac-
ton of the regulations and he should
be required TO change his sign i'm
mediately to conform to the require
ments.
THE second instance cited is that
of a theatre which gives various
prices Of admission on its entrance
sign and at the bottom Of the sign
states The above prices include war
tax" You are advised that in such
a case where the exact amount OF
tax to be paid is not made known to
the purchaser, the proprietor should
be held liable to the specific penalty
imposed, subject to an offer in COM
promise of not less than SO for the
first offense.
In addition. the proprietor Of the
theatre should be required to i'm
med!ately change his sign to state
each of the established prices Of ad-
mission, and in the case of each
such price, the tax due and the sum
total Of the established price and
the tax"
