and July lis, the wheat market
steadied a trifie, then underwent E
Slight setback.
Corn and oats responded with the ac
ton in wheat, trade being mostly OF {
local character with some short cover
ing. After starting unchanged to Il
UP May TAN to IA the corn marke
hardened q little more on all deliveries
Oats opened unchanged to Is higher
May, As Il to As ss, and held near to the
initial range.

OLD RED HORSE INN To
Be NORTH LODGE
Mr.. and Mrs. w. A. Wilson Will Have
Wonderful Country Place at
Cass' Corner

Mr.. and Mrs. w. A. Wilson who
have been making extensive repairs
on the Old Red Horse Inn at Cass'
delightful rural home when their
buildings are completed. Interior
partitions have been torn away and
the front door now opens directly
into large living room, extending
across the main house with d large
fireplace made of field stones along
the west wall. A beautiful stair
case leads to the upper story and the
ceiling is finished with beam effects.
Aside from new floors and the remov-
ing of one partition the two south
rooms are but little changed. The
dining room, which will also have an
attractive fireplace is a most charm
ing room with beamed effects, beauti-
full built in glass dish cupboards and
opens into a lovely sun parlor on the
west. Two bathrooms are being in
stalled and in the upper story there
are newly finished rooms, five in num-
ber, beside the bath. One of these a
large pleasant room will be used as
a sewing and general living room. A
delightful Colonial porch replaces the
tiny box like affair of old days and
there is also comfortable piazza
along the west ell. Mr.. and Mrs.
Wilson will change the historic name
so well known to people of fifty and
seyenty-five years ago to North Lodge,
The grounds will be greatly renovat-
ed and the outside of the buildings will
be painted. Mrs. Wilson is somewhat
planning to take parties for dinners
and dances another season when the
interior decorations of this beautiful
residence are completed. The struc-
ture is known to have been built
nearly one hundred years and once
was road house. When numbering
crews were returning from the woods
the ample sized barn used to be filled
with horses and many of the men
slept in the hay loft. Many inter
esting tales might be told of these
historic buildings and the Reporter
hopes to publish an entertaining story
of this place when earlier records
can be obtained.

QUICK WORK BY
SOMERSET OFFICERS
Negro Brought to Jail
in Burglary Case
Breaks In Restaurant and Store at
North AnsOn and Consequent
Arrest on Tuesday

Sheriff Mooers received word at 7
o'clock Tuesday that two stores had
been broken into at North Anson dur
ing the night previous and Immediate
ly left for that place in company with
Deputy Sheriff Crockcr, these two Of
icials being joined at North Anson
by Deputy Sheriff Emery of that town.
An investigation showed that the
restaurant in that place and also the
Williams Dry Goods store had been
burglarized. entrance having been af-
fected in both cases by, breaking the
glass in the doors and reaching thru
and unlocking the same. At the Will
liams store a skeleton key was used
to unfasten the inside door A mans
sweater valued at IS, mans shirt
and smaller articles of underwear
were among the goods missed from
the store while at the restaurant food,
canned goods. cigarettes, tobacco and
cigars were taken and the place Civ
en- general oyerhauling. The same
was also true at the Williams store
where Mrs. Williams narrowly escap-
ed losing her gold watch, which she
forgot and left in the building, but
which apparently was overlooked. No
clue was left by the thief, althe it be-
came apparent to the officers that only
one man participated in the break,
since only one article of a kind was
taken and one bottle of soda water
was partly consumed and left in the
restaurant.
A wide search was at one instituted
and the surrounding country from
Deadwater. Bingham. Pennington,
Oakland. Norridgewock and Skowhe-
gan was covered After running
down many clues. the officers started
for Madison and had nearly reached
that place when negro was diseoy-
cred just ahead having evidently come
out of the woods, about two miles
north of the Anson station. He was
Immediately taken into custody as a
suspect and a search of his person
disclosed 45 caliber automatic pis-
tol fully loaded, also a hacksaw,
while underneath many garments was
the much sought for sweater. it is be-
lieved as il ,allied exactly with the
lost one, bearing the same trademark
and size number also one of the
shirts the man wore was identified as
being of the same make and color
as that taken from the store accord
ing to the officer. Added to this
were many packages of cigarettes and
tobacco found on his persons which
agreed exactly with the description of
those missing from the restaurant
The man gave the name of James
Long, but he refused to give his res
idence and when asked for an explain
alton of his possession of the above
mentioned goods refused to talk. He
was arraigned before Judge Sawyer
of the Municipal Court where he plead
cd not guilty and was held in $500
bonds for the grand jury. He was
committed to SkOwhegan jail. The
proprietor of the restaurant which
was entered is Mrs. Lottie Green.
The officers believe this man may
be wanted for some sther crime and
he certainly from all appearances was
a dangerous man to have at large.
