Claims His Vessel Was Struck
69 Times by Coast Guards
Bullets

Halifax, n. s., Feb. 20. up BY
telephone from Lunenberg, Captain

insisted today his vessel had been
struck at least 69 times by shells from
the United States coast guard cutter
Seneca. while the liquor laden schoon
or was flying the British flag and
lying at anchor Il miles off Long
Island.
New York coast guard officials last

hardly probable.
Captain Spindler said that the cut.
ter fired first on the schooncr's port
side and then shcllcd it from the star.
board side. None Of the crew was
injured. They took refuge in the
schooner's hold. The firing was from
short distance and began after tho
Seneca had placed q target within
| 100 yards Of the Eastwood, he said.
Says Target Was "Blind"
| The skipper claimed that the targe
put out by the Seneca had been onl!

"They had the whole sea for thei
target" he said. "If it was targe

He expressed amazement at tn
Seneca's action In view Of the fac
that he "was not trying to &c
away"
Throughout the entire encounter
Captain Spindler said no word wa
exchanged. When the appearance o
an oil tanker made it possible 10
him to escape, the Seneca followe
the schooner for couple of mile
and then left her.

Enjoys Fine Outing

Last evening a delegation of about
twenty members of the Philbrick
class of the Baptist church return
ed from a two day outing at Juniper
Point, near Boothbay, the summer
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Cecil Daggett.
They report very enjoyable outing,
having visited many places of in
terest near the Daggett cottage, both
by automobile and by motor boat.
One place of particular interest
was that of the new log cabin hotel
open to the public on Friday evening,
called Sprucewold Lodge, which is
said to be the largest log building in
the world, and which is surrounded
by many cabins. This building is
situated on an elevation and faces
the ocean on the front, with Lime
kin Bay on one side and Boothbay
Harbor on the other.
-Four automobiles were filled with
a somewhat tired but very happy
crowd of ladies as they reached Wa
terville on Friday evening. Much
enthusiasm was expressed by the
ladies at the pleasure of the trip and
the statement was heard again and
again that if they were invited next
year nothing would deter them from
going if it was possible.

Chamber Commerce
Rapidly Completing
Tourist Directory

The Waterville- Winslow Chamber
of Commerce has virtually complet-
ed the prepare ton of a summer tour
list directory for this city and the
surrounding country which Is to be
distributed to the extent of 5000
copies and which will prove Of much
use to both those who are here for
but two months of the year and
those who stay here the year round
to be hosts and to see that the WISH
tors have all their desires satisfied.
The feature of the directory is to
be q map of Central Maine which
will show accurately the location Of
every hotel and summer camp. and
there are many of them. The map
was specially made for the Chamber
by the engineering firm of Green and
Wilson of this city and the govern
ment typographical maps were used
as the source than which there could
be none more accurate.
Besides the list of camps and the
map there will be a thorough direc-
tory of all the Chamber members
engaged in business which in any
way might have to do with the sum-
mer visitors. Only names of mem
bers will be included and the many
business men who do not belong to
the Chamber and who would be
helped by the inclusion of their
names must join the organization be-
fore they will be given consideration.
The same holds true in the case Of
former members who have allowed
the dues to lapse.
Although there have been in the
past directories made out to guide
those in any way connected with the
summer business, none has hereto
fore been as comprehensive or USE
full as that which will soon be issued.
They will be paced in the hands Of
all camp owners and managers and
before the chill of autumn is in the
air they will have been referred to
numberless times.
