V SET OUT 50,000 ROSES PEXINSl'LA WILL PREPARE FOR FESTIVAL. tlon. North Alblna, Peninsula and other places. The nrst mass meeting of tha series will be held October 14. STARTS TO WHIP CHIEF Residents Will Purchase Plants Through Association In Order to Secure Reduction in Price. To purchase and distribute. . at cost, choice rose bushes to the people cf the renlnsula In preparation for the next Rose festival Is the object of a movement Just lnausuratl br the Penin sula Rose Assc!atlon. Tho old rose car nival committee, which secured such ad mirable results last Sprtnj? durlnc Rose Festival, has been reorKsnized br re electing the following officers: Presi dent. V. J. Peddlcord: secretary. M. C. Van Tyne: treasurer. J. F. Hendricks. All bills for the festival were paid, so the committee starts out without any burdens. A committee has been appointed to ne gotiate tor the purchase of the 60,000 rose bushes, the most desirable varieties being wanted. It Is thought that by purchasing such a large quantity of rose bushes a considerable reduction in prices will be secured- Subcommittees will be appointed to make a house-to-house can vass on the Peninsula for the distribu tion of these plants, and every resident will be asked to set aside space for rose culture. It Is thought that the cost of the bushes will be so low that there will be no trouble In disposing of them. A committee has also been ap pointed to confer with the Rose Festival committee and arrange to work in har mony with that body, as was done last Spring. Just what part the Peninsula will take In the next festival will be decided at a later date. It Is the plan of the Peninsula Ron Association to hold public meetings at different points on the Peninsula, begin ning at St. John and continuing at Ports mouth. University Park, jUaegiy June Joe Thompson Misinterprets Gritz niacher's Glances Is Arrested. Joe Thompson, who lives in South Portland, was arrested last night by Chief of Police Gritxmacher at Fourth and Stark street, under circumstances rather embarrassing for the Chief of Police and disconcerting to Thompson. Chief Gritxmacher, was passing this corner when his attention was attracted by a young woman and he paused to watch her. Thompson, who was con versing with the woman, misinterpre ted the looks raat In their direction, and not recognising the small man as the head of the police department, pro ceeded to resent the chiefs glances in insulting language. Thompson was rather surprised tr find that the small man he started out to thrash was the Chief of Police and submitted to arrest without any vio lence. He was very much agitated, how ever, over being taken Into custody and roundly denounced the manner In which Chief Gritxmacher had looked at his companion, who, he said, was his brother's wife. He was released from the City Jail after having put up 20 bail for disorderly conduct. WORK OPENS FOB WINTER Y. W. C. A. DEPARTMENTS ARE BEING ORGANIZED. Funeral . Largely Attended. BCTTEVILLH. Or..
