the defence stated that he did not see
how the candle could have been burn
ing for five hours and 10 minutes as
was the time given out, and not have
any dripp.ngs running over side OF
the candle. In his opinion the candle
must have been lit short time before
being discovered. On the other hand,
what motive would Cohen have for
burning the building when he was not
in need Of money?
Att. Thorne took up his argument
and said it was not question of its
being impossible for the candles 10
burn five hours or more, but they
must first find out where (meaning
what lengthy they commenced to
burn. He stated that the candles
were placed there by someone who had
timed them and could be where he
could present an alibi. This person
did not take the chance of one being
extinguished by a draught or other
source, but used two. Who but Mr.
Cohen would have any motive? If he
hasn't. who has? He claimed there
was evidence enough presented at that
session to convict Cohen.
After listening to both arguments
Judge Sawyer found sufficient cause to
have Cohen held for the April term of
court to be held in Skowhegan. Bail
was fixed at $4,000. His bondsmen
were William Levine and l. Dawson.

Charge of Arson

James Cohen of WinsloW vas
brought before the Western Somerset
court held at the court room in the
Opera House yesterday morning. on
the charge of attempted arson. Cohen

strips of wood across the door while
he was there. Taylor said that he
worked in his part Of the building
part OF the days the rest Of the week
but did not see Cohen again after he
lett him on Wednesday. On Sun
day Taylor was in his shop sometime
between II and 1 O'Clock and went
thefe again about seven in the eve
nlnS. Water had run into the shop
badly and his reason for going there
was to move his tools. lie turned on
tho lights and stood in the door and
when he snapped the lights off he no
tlced lights shining through the par
ttion onto the floor. This aroused
his curiosity and he pulled off a small
piece of board from the partition and
saw candle burning. He immedi-
atcly run out onto the street and sum-
moned Officer Quincy. They with two
Others went back to the shop and
knocked off the top Of the partition
and eXtinguished them. About S
O'Clock when Deputy Sheriff Hill had
been called one candle was taken
from the can so as to smell the cons
tents of the can and then the candle
was replaced. Taylor said in describ-
ing the situation that there was kero-
senc in the can, on the excelsior
around the cans. In the room there
were several bushels of paper, excel
sior. boxes containing dry hay and
boxes containing paper and waste.
There was also barrel of waste pa
per in the corner of the room nearest
Main street. Paper had been nailed
over the door leading to Taylor's shop
and a hole in the partition had been
stopped up with waste paper.

Augusta Auto Camp
Extensively Advertised

Three hundred thousand motorists
from all parts of the country are
about to hear that Augusta has
free automobile camping ground
within the shadow of the State
House. equipped with light, water.
toilets, ovens, and nine-acre
camping field. \ booklet called,
1.-The Motor Camp Site Manual" will
be issued shortly by the American
Automobile Association. which has
upwards of 100000 members.
There are listed some 500 of these
sites in all parts of the country, yet
the State of Maine has only three
camps up to the present time, which
are free to the public. One of these
is located at Lewiston on the Maine
State Fair grounds and is being
maintained by the Lewiston Cham
Der Of Commerce; another is at Lake
Cobboseecontee, six miles from Au-
gusta at Silver Beech Inn; the third
site is at Augusta, in a beautiful
park overlooking the winding Ken
nebec. Within five minutes of the
stores and theatres our camp site
should prove an attraction to many
visitors this season.
The Chamber of Commerce has in
vested something like $500 in signs
which will be placed at the grounds
and along the roads from Portland
to Bangor so that no visitor to Maine
need remain in doubt as to the &C
commodations provided for him. In

rnerce has again demonstrated its
