dits.
Detectives Hyde and Vaughan, of
the Portland bureau, standing behind
one of the buttresses of the Twelfth
stret bridge, heard somebody rustling
in the bushes, and proceeded to empty
both their revolves in the direction of
the noise. After doing this the7 in
vestigated, but found nothing but torn
up earth and the spent lead. By mid
night the various searching parties
concluded that the bandits had made
their way to the city, and the search
was transferred to the North End sa
loons. 1
This is the third hold-up in Sulli
van's gulch in the last three years.
Both of the others have been success
ful, and the men concerned were nev
er caught. Though passing through
the heart of the residence district, the
gulch is filled with brush, and affords
many excellent chances of escape to
other parts of the city.

the thousands of Kentucky Elks and
their ladies who are gathered here for
their annual state, reunion. An in
teresting program has been arranged

ery minute. This morning was de
voted to the registration of the visit

THAW ARRESTED
COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 19. One of
,3 most important matters to be dis
cussed and voted on by the annual
meeting of the Ohio Liquor League
which opened a two day's session here
today, will be the resoW.ion propose
by the state president, William Seckel,
of Cleveland, to levy a monthly per
capita tax of 25 cents from air retail
ers for the purpose of maintaining a
bureau to ferret out illegal traffickers
in liquor. It is believed that the strict
enforcement of the new state liquor
law will force a number of retailers
out of business and incidentally prove
an incentive for sortie to engage in
bootlegging or the maintenance of
speak easies. The resolutio referred
to was suggested with a view of sup
pressing this illegal traffic.
COATICOOK, Kue., Aug. 19. Harry
K. Thaw is under arrest here. He was
arraigned before Justice of the Peace
Dupey this afternoon as a fugitive
from justice and was remanded to
Sherbrooke jail. He will appear be?
fore Justice Mulvena, extradition com
missioner, probably tomorrow.
In charge of officers, Thaw left here
shortly after 2 o'clock for the Sher
brooke jail. He said he would resist
any attempt to take him to the New
York state boundary line.
The final disposition of the prisoner,
however, rests with the Dominion gov
ernment. Thaw was arrested this morning at
Hermnegilde-Garford, a village near
here. He drove into town at 2 o'clock
this morning, having engaged a farm
er to bring him from Hereford, where
he left a Maine Central train last
night. He admitted his identity, and
complacently declared that he could
not be extradited, as he had commit
ted no crime.

designed to unite more closely th,a

Polly's Pies.
You ought to see wee P&Uy's pies!
She takes a bit of dough
That cook allows her, and she tries
To roll it out "Just so." .
But she must handle It a lot
Before It fits her pan.
And pie crust does show every spot
When hands aren't spick and spau.
And pies, to be quite flaky, need
The very lightest touch.
The crust is very tough indeed
If it is handled much.
And when wee Polly's pie is made
She feels a sad surprise
When Cousin May says. "I'm afraid
T dare not eat rich pies."
But Aunt Estella takes a piece
And says: "Is this for me?
You're very kind, dear little niece.
I'll lake It home for tea."

Second Trial for Dr. Smith.
SPRINGFIELD, O., Aug. 19. To
morrow will begin the work of draw
ing a venire for jurymen for the sec
ond trial of Dr. Arthur B. Smith, the
Springfield physician who is charged
with poisoning his wife. Dr. Smith
has been confined in jail here since
last November, when he was arrestee!
on a charge of first degree murder.
Mrs. Florence Cavileer Smith, his al
leged victim, died suddenly March 18,
1912. Though her death caused con
siderable comment, for she was said
to have been in excellent health, nu
suspicion was aroused until Dr. Smith,
on October 1, married Miss Mabel
Merchant at her former home in New
ton Highlands, Mass. Miss Merchant
was for several years a nurse in the
Springfield hospital, and she was call
ed in many cases by Dr. Smith. A
few weeks after the marriage the
county officials ordered an examina
tion into the cause of the death of the
first Mrs. Smith. The body was ex
humed and as a result of the medical
examination Dr. Smith was indicted
for th,e murder of his wife. His first
trial took place last spring and re
sulted in a disagreement of the jury.
The second trial is scheduled to begin
early next month.
Men, Women and Adjectives.
Certain adjectives are reserved for
men and others for women. A man
is never called "beautiful." Along with
"pretty" and "lovely" that adjective
has become the property of women
and children alone. "Handsome" and
the weak "good looking" are the only
two adjectives of the kind common to
either sex. Even "belle" has no real
masculine correlative in English, since
"beau" came to signify something
other than personal looks. It is singu
lar that "handsome" should have be
come the word for a strikingly good
looking person, since its literal mean
ing is handy, dexterous. But "pretty"
likewise comes from the Anglo-Saxon
word meaning "slv." '

Georgia Fruit Growers Meet
CLAYTON, Ga., Aug. 19. The an
nual summer session of the Georgia
State Horticultural society was form
ally opened here by President Berck
mans, of Augusta, in the presence 01
a large gathering of fruit and nut
growers from nearly all sections ot
the state. 'Clayton, being in the heart
of the Georgia apple belt, the general
discussions will mainly deal with the

The Blue Laws.
The so called blue laws of Connecti

Peters, a Tory, who. driven from this
country on account of his disloyalty
during the Revolution, published in
London in 1781 a book entitled "Gen
era I History of Connecticut," in which
the laws in question were set forth.
The code of laws which this book con
tains has been proved to be fabrication.
There were no such laws in Connect!'

A Diplomatic System.
"To what, sir." we asked a middle
aged, happily married man recently.
"do you attribute the success you have
made of your married life?"
"Tis a bit of elementary wisdom,
my son." he replied. "When my wife
is in the wrong I agree with her, and
all is well. When she is in the right I
argue against her. She emerges tri
umphantly, proves me. foolish, feels
good all day and again all is well.
Learn this, my son. ere you marry."
