YOUNG HERDSMAN MEETS DEATH
BY INFUR|ATED BULL AT WYMAN
FARM IN MANCHE STER, TUESDAY

the pure bred flve-year old bull, as
had been the custom, but instead of
responding to the command and
he could be taken into lead, the ami
NAL baked for some inexplicable rea-
son. Relieving himself familiar with
the creatures disposition, the young
man opened the stock-pen gate and
entered to approach with the inten-
ton. of hooking the lead gaff in the
bulls nose ring.
The powerful animal lowered his
head as the herdsman crossed the
enclosure, then, without the young
man realizing that the creature was
maddened, the bull suddenly charged,
tossed Rowe on his horns, and pur-
sued the attack where the victim
corner. The animal charged again
and again. badly goring his keeper.
but it is believed that Rowe was
killed by the first attack when one
of the bulls horns nearly penetrated
his heart.
Another farm hand, who was in the
stable at the time, saw the terrible
tragedy enacted, from his position at
one of the small barn windows. The
entire proceeding transpired in but
moments time and the observer
was powerless to reach the scene or
render assistance.
Leroy Rowe came to East Win
throp. from Palmyra, where his par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. Melvin Rowe. now
reside. He Is also survived by a
brother. Vernon Rowe. The victim
of the bulls frenzy served in the U.
S. Navy during the World war and
had been a member of the James
Fitzgerald post, American Legion, of
this city.

The extensive alterations now I'M
der way at the Y. NJ C. A. building
and which when finished will pro-
vide six fine bowling alleys for the
use of bowling fans in Augusta, in
stead of the three which have been
used previously, will be completed by
August Is, General Secretary Thomas
S. Smith said Tuesday. Mr.. Smith
also stated that the work of remod-
cling a portion of the basement TO
Accommodate these new alleys will e
advanced to such stage by July 90
that the delicate operation of laying
the alleys may be commenced. These
alleys, like those which have always
been in use, will be absolutely regu-
lation in every respect.
The firm of ]. A. and J. r. Part
ridge, contractors, of this city, were
awarded the contract for the work
which is to be done at the "Y" build
ing, exclusive of the actual laying
of the alleys, which is to be done by
the Brunswick Bake CO., specialists
in work of this nature These opera
lions will be under the direction of
the special committee consisting Of
DR.. Warren B. Sanborn, Blaine Owen
and Al thur Savage. The plans for
the changes were drawn by the firm
of Bunker and Savage of this city.
The plans call for the elimination
of the present janitor's room on the
lower floor and the mems toilet stu
ated next to it, the use Of part OF
the present mems locker room for the
alleys, the changing of the course of
two stairways, and the installation
of the basket system in the locker
room in place of the present system.
The six alleys will run parallel to
the course of those formerly used,
and three of them will be in the

same location, although they will be
turned end for end. The other thre e
will be laid along side them, the first
new alley occupying portion Of the
present passageway outside the alley
room. There will be room for a pas
sageway outside the alleys under the
new system. There will also, by the
relocation of the present back stairs,
be more room for spectators who de-
sire to watch the bowling.
In the mems locker room q sys-
tenn is to be provided whereby each
man Is given a basket to keep his
things in and when he wants them he
asks the attendant for them. When
they are returned they are dried in
a drying room, thus insuring more
sanitary conditions than are now
possible. The same attendant that
looks after the bowling alleys will be
able to care for the locker room as
well.
This will insure that next fall
when the bowlers begin to feel n
desire to topple the pins, they will
have an opportunity to satisfy their
ambition without having to engage
the alleys several days ahead. The
three alleys have been crowded and
every night has been taken up with

Leroy Rowe, 20 years old, of East

Infatuated bull at the farm of Wal
ter S. Wyman on the Augusta Win
throp road in Manchester, Tuesday
forenoon, when the young man en-
tered the bull-pen to lead the animal
into the barn as had been his Gus
tom for some time. The bull, which
was of thoroughbred strain. was con-
sidered to be clever and young Rowe
had handled him with other stock
on the Wyman farm for the past
two or more years. Following the
tragedy of yesterday morning, the
animal was killed by the orders Of
his owner.
The victim of the unfortunate ac-
cident had been employed at the ex-
tensive farm owned by the president
of the Central Maine Power Com
pany for the past two and a half
years, and resided nearby with his
wife and little two-year old daughter.
He was a herdsman and was accus-
