were seized. The liquor. consisting
of 200 bottles of Haig and Haig and

the cockpit of the plane for a trip
of considerable length
Neither Strout nor Jaquith would
discuss the matter with the officials

they had secured their supply over
the Canadian border. a comparatively
short flight to the eastward. OH
Gals believe that Jaquith was in the

was the pilot of the machine.
The men were held in the Machias
Jail and will be taken to Bangor for
arrangement before Commissioner
Reid.
Officials are investigating to learn
whether the plane captured at Jones'
port is one. of a fleet of aircraft which
may have been duplicating the noto-
rious Florida -Bimini traffic between
the Maine resorts or points further
south and a possible sourse Of supply
across the Maine-Canadian border.
This is the first time that a seaplane
has been captured while carrying
liquor in Maine or along the Maine
coast but the officials are not prepar-
ed TO state that this is, by any means,
the first time that this mode OF trans
portation has been attempted.

Auto Runs Into Hedge
There seems to be some mystery
connected with an accident which
occurred Saturday noon at the cor
ner of Winthrop and Pleasant
streets. A car driven. it is under
stood, by John Lucas of Bennett
street, became unmanagable whe IN
attempting to turn onto Winthrop
from Pleasant street and ran direct
ly across the road stopping with the
front wheels on a small hedge. be-
side the sidewalk, on the property
owned by Mrs. r. H. BodwelI.
The car was apparently not dam
aged except for broken front wheel
and twisted front axle The acct
dent occurred about II Saturday
noon, but at 1915 no one could be
found who could tell or would tell
the reason for the accident. The Ii
cense plates had been removed from
the car and a garage man who was
working about the car proved singu-
larly uncommunicative when asked
regarding the accident.

Rev. H. H. Brown Gives
Strong Patriotic Address

That America is favored above
other countries by the possession of
so many men of great mental and
moral strength. was the assertion of
Rev. Howard H Brown, pastor of the
! Penney Memorial church, in a fine
address which ne gave Sunday night
at the church.
Rev. Mr.. Brown took as his text
the goth verse OF the 146th chapter of
Psalms: He Hath not Dealt so With
Any Nation" He said that this
speech was uttered by an Israelite
who believed that his country was
favored to a greater degree by God,
than any other. This is a beief which
common to every true patriot;
each feels that God is looking With
special favor upon his country.
In the Civil war, both sides were
praying to God to help them, to bring
them victory. They were true pa
triots and felt that He would help
them. In other wars it was the
same and there is no doubt that the
same was done in the last war. 1t
IS right that patriot should think
thus as He would not believe in a
cause that was unjust and all true
| patriots believe their cause Just.
But with all other nations feeling
themselves favored of God. we, the
people of the United States may well
feel that we have really been favor
ed. When we take the Presidents of
the United States, and compare them
with the Kings of other nations. we
cannot help but see great
superiority in them. But our Presi-
dents are not the only ones who have
great mental and moral power. There
have been many men such as Web
ster and Blaine, who have brought
honor to our country.
Because of this our country has
stood for high ideals, has faced the
world with these ideals in mind. and
has come out victorious. At the time
of the Boxer Revolution in China, the
United States stood against the
world that China should not be &C.
cupied. There have been numerous
occasions on which the United States
has taken its stand for the better
