 State and Maine Territory

Boston, April as JP) - Seven teen dwellings, most of them sum- mer cottages. were destroyed, sev- eral others were damaged. and thousands of acres of woodland were swept by fires between West kennebunk, Me, and Plymouth Mass, yesterday.
 Other communities in which fires occurred were Billerica, Hingham Lowell, Tewksbury, Lexington, Bed ford, Woburn, Saxonville Ports mouth, N. H., Tyngsboro and Saul gus.

PLANET 'X COMET,
 ASTRONOMER SAYS
Chicago Scientist Says Body Will Disappear Shortly

Chicago. April 2S Pt-Thc astral body ferreted out of the skies by the Lowell observatory at Flagstaff, Ariz., is not a planet. in the opinion of Dr. William D. MacMillan, pro- lessor of mathematical astronomy at the University of Chicago, but q comet that countless cons ago may have been q part of another solar system.
 Will Disappear shortly
 The heraldcd ninth planet, Dr.. MacMillan believes, will disappear within q few years and will not be visible again until the year 5000 A. D.
 Astronomers in general have had the feeling that the Planet K though highly interesting, is not a planet and has no connection with Lowelrs prediction" the astronomer said. referring to tn cforecast of a new planet made by the late Perci- val Lowell, of Harvard university.
 Its orbit would seem to justify that feeling" he continued. "Esti- mates of it's size have been on the assumption that 'N' is solid and would have such refecting power as solids have. But actually there is no way of measuring it's density. If it is a comet. as it seems to be, then it may be a swarm of fragments and it's volume much larger than that of the earth.'
 Accurate Estimate Difficult
 The three positions of the astral body on it's orbit so far recorded. Dr. MacMillan said. are insufficient to insure accuracy. but he described the orbit as an extremely elongated elipse, which would indicate it is q comet, of an unusual type.
 Should the orbit prove hyperbolic instead of eliptical. pr. MacMillan said "N" will never return to the solar system and will be the first such ever seen.

Two Killed Sunday

Bombay, India, April 28 tPt-Two Indians were killed and three wounded in Madras Sunday. when British police opened fire upon an unruly mob. The rioters stoned the police. injuring both commissioner and his deputy, and others. Orders to disperse were answered with more stones and finally the police opened fire.
 Elsewhere in India there was a weekend of comparative quiet, which was considered by some ob- servers as the lull before the storm. Mahatma Gandhi himself, marching with devotces to capture what he says arc the government salt pans at Dharasana continued to preach his doctrine of non-violence, and to deplore the rcccl.t rioting at Chitta- gong, Peshawar, and Madras.
 At Simla, summer capital, Niceroy Lord Irwin issued an important statement in connection with re-in- vokinS the press censorship laws Of 1910 for suppression of alarmist na- |tivc papers, which he considers spread rumors and keep the people in a state of ferment.
 Says Resistance Stronger
 The letter said in part: Civil dis obedience. whatever may have been the professed aim of those who launched it, is rapidly developing as iall reasonable men foresaw; into violent resistance to constituted au- thority."
 Further he said: The spirit of revolution, fostered by civil disobedi. encc. now is beginning to emerge in dangerous form" Explaining then his move for supervision of matter printed in the native press, the statement concluded with an appeal to the moro sober classes to resist the forces of anarchy
 Of his impending move Gandhi said; We have been playing Il child's game so far, but we arc go- ing 10 be serious when l make the attack on Dharasana. l shall in- vite men to accompany me. for the authorities will laugh at US if I take women with me, but will suffer calmly. We should be ready to die

Spe a king of Sports

There will be no American Paper Goods baseball team in the Indus trial league this season, according to the announcement of Harry Mckeon. manager last season. Since the close of play last year, the team has lost several of its players. This has creat- cd shortage that cannot be filled and the company has decided not to enter the league this year.
 As a consequence, the league will again be made up of seven baseball teams. This was the number engaS- cd in play last year.
 A meeting will be held tonight at the Y. M. C. A. on the organization of soft ball league. Last season. there were 12 teams entered in the league. Not so many aggreSations are expected in this year but good league is being planned.
 Plans will be made later in the week for the annual banquet of the Industrial bowling leagues, both men and women. It is planned to hold the affair somewhere out of town this year.
 The Waterbury Brasscos baseball team has organized for the season and games are being sought with the leading teams in Connecticut. The team wants home and home games.

 The whale of the lot is Bliss Clark of Cornell. He stands feet, 6 inches and weighs 204 pounds. And besides, he is one of the fastest men in the shell. He's the Jumbo of the sweep swingers this spring.
 Evidently Bliss is getting to be real big boy since the time when he was one of the weight men on the New Britain high school track team.
 The unexpected victory of little Bates in the tWo-mile relay at the Penn Relay carnival on Saturday afternoon is of interest in this city inasmuch as Ray Thompson, the track coach of the Maine college, is known here. He married Miss Dag mar Carlson. local junior high school teacher. last December. The Bates anchor man, though of spindly build in comparison with his competitors, came out of third or fourth place on the back stretch and pushed into the lead on the final straightaway to defeat the strong entries from New York university, Harvard, Co., lumbia, and other institutions.
