A STATE REFORMATORY

W- C- T- U- Him Ti I m Ho'd and Will Preient Petition to legislature-

A petition is being circulated to go to the Legislature accompanied by a bill which will provide for the establishment of a State re tormatory fur women. 1 he petition is being sent into various parts of ihe state by Mrs. Hannah J Bailey, of Winthrop, chairman of ihe committee of the state W . C. T . U., whi.h ha* the matter in hand. The other memheis o f the committee are Mrs Ellen C« ffia Beedy, o f Bangor, and Miss Clara Farwell, of thia city.

For a good many years tbe women of Maine have wished (ur a s tile ref irmatory for their sex. They have protested against (he imprisonment of women in jails and in ihe s>a(e prison with men, but their t f f jris have been in vain because there w»re no other places in which the erring w in n could be confined. Women have been work­ing for a l- ng time to remedy what they re­garded as au evil.

At the last session o f the Legislature the matter was heard. Since then the W . C .T . U. has taken tbe plan in hand.

GRANO ARMY ENCAMPMENT-

Will Be He'd in Lewiston Notwilhstinding All Ihe Talk to Contrarj-

Wearers of the bronxe button in this sec­tion will be greatly interested in the follow­ing details o f the forthcoming encampment at Lewiston, taken from Thursday’s Lewiston Sun x

Assistant adjutant S. L . M iller of W aldo­boro was in Lewiston yesterday making ar­rangements ft«r the encampment of M aine’s Grand Army of the Republic, which will con­vene here on April 15th and i6*h.

Assistant Adju'ant M iller was met by Com­rades E. S. Crowell and D . Gup'ill of Custer post, G. A . R , at whose invitation the en­campment was secured for Lewiston.

They made a tour of the hotels to arrange f j r the accommodation df the veterans and incidentally headquarters for the stall officers were decided upon.

Hotel Atwood will be the headquarters during the two days’ session and 40 rooms have been secured there. Commander Car­ver and staff will be quartered there and Hon. Leroy T . Carleton of Winthrop, who is work­ing hard to be the next commander of the G. A. R . of Maine, as well as former chap­lain C. A . Southard of Livermore Falls, also a candidate for the honor, will have their headquarters at the Atwood.

Hon. L. T . Carleton, who is now fish and game commissioner, was a candidate for the office at the last encampment which was held in Bangor, and he has many friends hustling among the veterans for support. M r. Carle­ton was judge advocate of the G. A . R. and his held many important posts in the State count il o f tbe veteran*.

C. A. S 'Uthard was State chaplain for six years and his friends are putting in valiant work (ur him. From present indication* the Atwood will be a lively place during the pre- liminaiies o f the vote which will be taken on Friday, the closing day of the encampment.

C im m ander-m -Chirf T. S. Clarkson of the G . A. R o f the United States has sent hi* ap­proval of the dates April 15 and 16 a* best accomm-'d iting to himself and members of the nati< nal staff who will visit New England that week.

City hall, Lewiston, w i’l be the place of the convention and the beautiful building w ill be covered with O ld Glory during the stay of the veterans.

A general order will be issued in a few days concerning the details of the encamp­ment.

From present indications there w ill be over Coo veterans in Lewiston at the encamp ment, and with their wives and children will swell the number of visitors to probably 1,000.

I t is not expected by the committee that hotel accommodations can be secured and the veterans do n<>t expect to all stay in hotels. The nu j irity prefer private houses, and there will be no lack of entertainment on that score.

The entertainment committee of Custar post, who w ill prepare for the visitors, make a canvass of Lewiston and Auburn soon and report to the headquarters.

Lewiston and zKuburn should prepare glorious reception for me old veterans who will throng their sheets next April, and all who have rooms t > rent should notify tbe committee and in other ways get ready to make the visit of Maine’s G . A . R. to the Twin cities a memory which they w ill long

cberiah.

WHAT HE MIS&EO.

How a Rockland Man Cams Near Being a Mormon

Some Yean Ago-

Alfred Murray, the Main street clothier, saw much of life when a young man in the wild aud woolly west and a very pleasant hour can be spent in his coinpiny listening to some of the incidents in bis stirring life, when the trip across he great plains was made in prairie schooners and not in a comfortable and luxuriant Pullman.

M r. Murray is especially fond of telling of his acquaintance witb Brigham Young the great Mormon chieftain.

W hen but a boy M r Murray was living with hi* parent* on a farm in Iowa, witn his nearest neighbor mile* away.

One cold, stormy, dissagreeable night tbe quietness of the household was broken by a loud knocking at the door and witb genuine western hospitality M r.M urray bid the strang­er to enter and make himself at home.

The stranger was none other than .he great Brigham Young, who in a very short time took quite a fancy to young Murray. On his departure in tbe morning he offered to take young Alfred with him aud bring him up but (be parents said no. Young said that tbe time might arrive when be might be able to do the young man a favor.

Tbe incident was forgotten by the Murrays.Some years later when M r. Murray was

about 21 years of age he happened to be in Salt Lake city which brought to bts mind the visit and tbe promise of the Mormon leader, l ie had no idea that he would be remembered but he nevertheless thought that he would call aud if neerssary introduce himself.

There was uo necessity for au introduction for Young wbo possessed a wonderful mem­ory, icmembered Murray and the two had a very plcasaut chat. Every attention possible was bestowed upon tbe young lowaian even unto the freedom of tbe city.

Yqdng urged Murray io become a Mormon; he promised to shove him ahead and although M r. Murray doesn’t say so probably offered to find birn a wife or tw o; he agreed to look after his welfare and every inducement map could make to man he made. I t was a golden opportunity f>r ibe >om g tuau but he didn’t like the idea of becoming a Morm m so de­clined (be generous off .-rs made him and when M r. Murray It ft the city Young told him that if be changed bis miod to return for tbe offer would remain good.

M r. Murray did not return.But his visit to the great Mormon apostle

will always be remembered w ith feelings of pleasure.

Aud this is how Alfred Murray,the clothier, came near being a Mormon elder.

A B S O L U T E L Y P U R ESTRANGE THINGS IN NATURE.

Muifu lilioni In the Malnrial anJ SpliUual Rialmi Verr Mfilarloua.

The following communication from our townsman F. W . Smith is self explanatory and w ill be read with interest:M r E d it o r : —

I read with interest the article in your paper written by our old townsman Z . Pope Vote on the phychic occurrences related by his lady friends.

T o those who have given this subject little thought or investigation, these occurrences seem very strange and supernatural, but to those who have studied the laws and effects pertaining to the phychic or soul real, they are neither strange nor supernatural, in fact nothing that occurs in nature is supernatural. A ll the various manifestations in the material and spiritual realms are in accordance witb natural law, but the same laws that govern in the material plane, do not obtain in the spiritual realm. The laws in the mineral, vegetable, animal and spiritual kingdoms are not all alike but they are Godlike. Each realm ha* laws peculiar to itself, and those of one kingdom cannot he made to apply to another kingdom, and this is the reason why many things that transpire seem so mysterious. Events occurring in the phychic world can not b< explained by any law governing in the material plane.

The w< nderful discovery of Psychometry by D r. Joseph Rhodes Buchanan 48 years ago, has thrown a wonderful fl >od o f light upon many hitherto unexplainable mysteries. Psychometry is the science of the soul and its marvellous powers and manifestation. It proves the scientific saying that nothing is lost. I t shows that every act that transpires in nature stamp* or photograph* itself upon all surrounding objects and (hat some persons are so sensitively organized that by coming in contact with these objects, they are enabled by the soul vision to witness the act that occurred even though centuries ago. This is on the same principle as the phonograph and is no more m yite ii jus. The phonograph records tbe vibrations of sound and whenever these vibrations are reproduced the same sounds occur. Light and colors are the result • f vibrations, they are recorded and when re ­produced (he same light and colors reappear. This explains how (he lady could see the little g iil with the red dress as she came out and ran down to the spring. Another sensi­tive with clairandient or soul hearing devel­oped might have heard the child’s footsteps or cries.

Similar events have occurred all through the history of the world but are more common in modern times because the people are living on a higher plane nearer the soul realm.

I will relate a well authenticated account which happened in a Connecticut town, a few years ago. An old gentleman and his wife on retiring to bed bad a conversation about bid­ing away some gold, as they were about to go away on a visit for several weeks and shut up the house. They decided to hide it in the turnip bin in the cellar. On returning home they found the gold money missing. Search failed to find it. Several months after a lady, wbo had very wonderful psychometric powers, was invited to try and solve tbe mystery. On coming in contact with the sleeping room of these people, she was enabled to hear the ex­act conversation o f the aged couple aa it was spoken months before, and repeated it verba ttm. In her soul vision she followed the old man down cellar where he bad hidden the gold, and was able to discover that the rats had dragged the pocketbook down under the bin an I torn it in pieces while the gold piece* lay scattered about. A search was made, the gold and torn pocketbook were found exactly as described. This was done in accordance with a simple natural law, w hi.h w ill in time be well understood and used to a great extent in searching out the hidden mysteries that transpire about us.

Things of like nature have occurred in my own household many times. I have seen a member of my own family hold a letter written by a perfect stranger in a distant state, and describe the writer perfectly, as to age, feat ures, accomplishments, occupation and health and also other members of the fanrqly and tbe house in which they lived. The writer in question was a stranger to all of my family and the were afterwards verified by cor­respondence.

I be most successful detectives are endowed with tbi« remarkable psychic power. The same is true uf lawyers, physicians, statesmen and business men.

Men of science are searching into these superior conditions. They are gradually than doning tbe attempt to explain matter* pertain­ing to a higher plane of being oy the laws that govern in a lower sphere.

The literature of the preseut day is liberally sprinkled with happenings of a psychic nature, and thinking men and women no longer ridl cule and call it fraud because it docs not accord with their preconceived ideas or be cause they are unable to explain them.

The infinite Father invites ail H is children to search into tbe wonderful book of nature which he has spread out before them, iilu* (rated witb such beautiful scenic views and f illed on every page with ovei flowing cvideoces of H is bounteous love and wisdom.

That Mayor L o w joy is not to be a candi­date for renonamaiion for that position is evident from the following communication:

Rockland, Me., Jan. 15.M l E d it o r :

As a caucua w ill toon be held for the selection of a candidate for mayor, 1 wish to say, that while 1 feel grateful for the suppott that has been ao freely given me in the pu*t, I -hall not again be a candidate for the office. Jo h n Lo vfjo y .

This aDpeais to leave the matter open for discussion and it would surprise nobody it -everal candidates made their appearance between now and the time of the caucus. I’he names most prominently mentioned a* • his time are those of A. W . Butler and G L. Farrand, either o f whom would make a strong candidate.

The banking experience obtained at the Rockland Commercial College i t a valuable thing for the student and ila intro­duction was a happy hit.

I l was hot billing throughout, and the au­dience was treated to a great show. Augusta f-iagbt every inch of the game, but the visitors' tram work in the form of fine pasting, anti some of the most singeing drives seen in this city, took the bacuit with considerable to rpaie.

C. Gay’s drives were great, and the work of Maynard, Foster and Campbell was very strong.

Augusta, if overplayed in team play, pre­sented some fine individual work. Scanlon, whom Manager Smart recently secured, put up an excellent game in Rnal, and was as usual, given fine suppott by Lee at halfback.

Turner did some good work. McCann, who made his first appearance wiih the team, did Kime very creditable wotk, making some fine plays.

OBITUARY MENTION.

O . B. Fale-, one of Rockland's most promi nent and esteemed citizens, departed th it life, Tuesday, after an illness which kept him con fined to the bouse for some time. H e wa» (be son of O iiver and Mary Spear Fales ard was born in this city in lb 2 l. Rockland was not incorporated then but was known as East Thi maston. M r. Falea lived to see the strag­gling village by the sea grow to its preaem >ize as one of the most important cities in the -late. A t an early age he established bimsell in the grocery business on the corner of Main and Paik streets, in which he continued until a few years ag<», when he retired to enj »y the results < f h it many years of activity. H e wa* an honored member of the Congregational church and wsa for years superintendent • f the Sunday cchool. Although be served one vear as a member o f the common council from Ward 5 he n*-ver took an active part in poli­tics. M r. Fales was a business man, was bonest and uptight in all b it dealings, be was a sincere Christian in every sense me word implies; he was an honored citizen, ever w ill­ing to do what he could for ihe best interests of the city and o f bis fellow men; he wa« loved, respected and esteemed and altgough he lived beyond the alloted thiee score years and ten his death is generally regretted. The funeral services were solemnized T b u n la y afternoon from bis late residence on Beech >*'re«t, at 2 o'clock. Rev C. A. Moore of the Congregational church officiated and the ser­vices were attended by a large number o f his friends. Deceased was twice m aried, the first wife being Maria Robinson of Thomaston and the second Emma Sprague of ttii« city The surviving chib r n, all by the tecond wife, are A lbeit B Fales « f Somerville, Mass , M ia..J. B. Patierann of B »ston, Mrs. Mary C.

Two thousand people turned ont in Lewis­ton Saturday night to witness the game be­tween Rockland and Lewiston. The victory here Thursday night gave the deluded Lewis­ton enthusiasts the impression that the cham- pious had at last met their superiors in polo playing and a migh-y cheer went up when Fi zgerald caged tne first goal in len seconds .b o lt of two minutes, but the enthusiasm was short lived and the playing of the Ruckland- broke tbe beaits < f many a fair Lewiston girl as well as those of the sterner sex.

The Lewistons succeeded in getting two mote goals during the game while Rockland had nine chalked to their credit on the state.

The passing of Campbell and Gay was sup­erb and bewildering to the green stocking y. utha T h e work of Foster at center and Maynard at half back was grand and they were as impregnable as ihe Chinese wall. O ’Maliy had his “ peepers’’ open and he kepi the balls away from the cage aa easily as Mrs. Jack Gardner keeps unwelcome society from her boudoir.

“ K id " Broadbent gave a rather poor rxh i. bition of goal tending, but bow could the poor fellow help it as he was a m irk for Cam pbtll and Gay and all through Ibe game they kept peppering tbe ball at him.

I t was sweet revenge for tbe it »ys and they came home highly pleased with their trip. The summary.HorKL.XO• unipbullU. (layFosterMaynardO’MalleyGoal W on by

Every Rockland man played with a dash and spirit that was inspiring and what looked like certain dtf^at before tne opening of the game was tam ed with a brilliant victoty.

The Baths were outplayed from the start and although they made a »me good drives for the cage, thev did no passing to amount to anything. They were weak in Murphy hut then he put up quite as good a game as did the other members of the team.

There was no rough work in the game’ and the fouls called were m «st of them uninten­tional. Bath 1> i t one goal on fouls and the other was knocked in for them by Maynard, the ball bitting the stick while it was in the air. Tbe summary:

The Rocklands had seven fouls called on them in tbe Augusta game. Perhaps they were made, we will not say they were not b-cause we were not there and we religiously refrain from k eking at the referees, but we will say that it is our opinion that there isn’t a team in the league that plays cleaner polo than the Rocklands. They do n d believe in such methods but some times they are obliged to resort to rough work in order to defend hemselves. W hen they are compelled to

play rough we notice they come out of the scrap first best. They believe, however, in

inning games by scientific work and not by slugging. I f other teams would do the samethey might win more games.

Tbe first game in tbe state Y . M . C. A . basket ball league, composed of Rockland, Bath and Bangor, was played in Bangor F ri­day evening between the Bangor and Bath teams. The game resulted in an easy victory for the Bangors. The score was 31 to 8. Four members of the Bath team were deco rated with court plaster on their faces to cover up scratches they received during the game.

I t looks as if the B mgor sports would have to be content with basket ball. Pretty bard come down for the “ feelers” who yelled for the champions in last season’s N ew England bise ball league but who have no'bing else to do now but to talk of how they were robbed o f the championship. However, a visit to the Y . M . C. A. room* once in a while might do them good.

The Gardiner team that w ill be here Satur­day night w ill be a different team altogether than the one here last. Tbe team has been grea'ly strengthened and is putting up a lively game.

One o f the most Interesting sparring ex­hibitions this city bas ever known is slated to take place in Elmwood H a ll, next Thursday evenin ,, when there will be a hot eight round bout between Joseph D >novan of this city and A llie Biown of Lewhton. Donovan bas been in active training for some time pa»t and Brown is even now on a tour of tbe state giving exhibitions with Dick O ’Brien of Lewiston and gaining tips from that cham­pion. Donovan and Brown met in Berlin Falls a few months ag*>, and neither is quite satisfied wi b the outcome so it is very likely that they w ill start in early on the perform ance Thursday night. In addition to this contest there wi 1 be bouts as follows: J Chase and “ Prof.” John N a 9b, W illiam Gray and on unknown, Ambrose Connors and “ Rob” Lanmgan, Dave Sawyer and Jimmy Donovan. Tne last named bout is one in which local sports are particularly interested and some cash is likely to change hands on the result. Prof. John Nash is running 40 miles a day for practice while Joe Cha>e bis side partner is doing something besides tbe heavy looking-on.

There was a general feeling of diiapp dot* rnent last night by tne big crowd, that ahsem- hled in Elmwood H all to see ibe R >ckland- Baih game, when it was learned that our crack second rush Charlie Gay was not to play, an • tbe general opinion was that Bath would have an easy victory. Gay was knocked out by the poor water in Lewiston and Au­gusta and bad to remain in bed all day Sun­day and tbe greater pait of Monday.

But tbe Rockland peop'e have yet to learn that tbe cnampioos are never beaten until the gong sound-* at tbe finish and although they vreally missed Gay yet they appeared on ihe floor with tbeir faces wreathed in smiles and coifident of victory.

Capt. Campbell, with that foresight of bis, ordered bia men to play on tbe aggressive and this they did to g<M>d advantage.

Elliott Gay appeared in bis old p isition in center, Foster taking C. Gay’s place as second rush. E llio tt played a great game and de­monstrated that be knew more about tbe game than many men in tbe league wbo think they know it all.

Maynard was io bis element as be realized (bat ihe odds were against bim and that be would be compelled to p'ay tbe best be kotw bow. l ie did. For be hadn’t put up a bcKer game (bis season. H is blocking was immense and when be got tbe ball be kept tt. I be tmrd g a 1, which be made was to rn the cen­ter of the hall si d was beauty.

Capl. Campbell and Foster played like de­mons aud ibe fuaiiade they kept up io front of Bath's cage was moie than any human being could stand and Murphy slopped them aa long as be c uld. Campbell juggled tbe ball to bis bead’s Content and be just made fools of Ibe lads fr< ru tbe shipping cuy.

Great excitement reigned at tbe Coliseum in Gardiner Saturday night, when the old time rivals, Gardiners and Augustas, met. A n extra period was necessary to determine tbe result. Amidst the wildest excitement Gardiner won. Each team lost a goal on fouls. The features of the game were H ack­ett’s goal tending and the work of D »herty and Broadbent. Hackett had 41 stops to his credit and sustained h>s repu'a i »n of being a Inst class man. H e must have recovered from his brolcrn j ,w. The score was 2 to 1 in favor of Gardiner.

Tbe Lewiston Sun tells how Rockland beat the Spindle City boys Saturday night in the following terms:

“ N rarly two thousand people went to City H all Saturday evening and saw their favorites lower their colors to the leaders in the league race. In the first p Hod LewLton p ’aved as if they had some object in view, after which they went to pieces as far as tn y team work was concerned. Rockland took matters more easily and the way they hustled the ball down the ball to C. Gay, after some LewLton player had banged it away from their goal, cut lots o f Ice. C. Gay was right on earth to meet it and the fact that he alone made goals, tells how the game was won.

Fitzgerald made the first goal in less than two minutes after Connolly had won the rush and Tarrant had made two pretty bids for first blood. I t was a pretty drive from the centre of the sui face. C. Gay captured the next two goals in eight minu'es on angle spots, the last one striking the “ K id ’s” skate and bounding in. Tarrant made Lewiston’s other goals both in the second period, one on a long drive and the other pushed in after a lively scrimmage in front of the Rockland goal.

“ For Lewiston, Jones and Tarrant both did c>ever work and only the star game put up by O ’Malley prevented a more even score, at least. In the last period Rockland caged the ball almost at will, and the crowd expressed their disapproval at the way Broad- b»n’ did not stop the ball". The “ kid," how­ever, was not altogether to blame. H e made a good many good stops. Connolly rejoined the team after being L id up a week, and everybody was glad to see him again in the game. H e was not often seen in the vicinity of the Rockland goal, but did some beau’iful blocking before his own cage. The game was free from any semblance of dirty work and with a reversed score would have been voted the best o f the season.”

A special meeting of the M aine Polo League was beM in Biunswick, Sunday, to consider the referee system. No decision was arrived at and another meeting will be held next Sunday. Waterville applied for a franchise but the matter was tabled till the next pneeting.

Bath T im es:— The Ba’h polo team were entertained last evening by W . F. P ind at his residence on Middle street and it was a very pleasant occasion in which every member of tbe team assisted. A ll the boys are of a musi­cal turn of mind. Murtaugh is an artist on the piano, banj > and other instruments and is a good singer Captain Phelan can also pick the bai j • pretty well. G »al tender Murphv and Eddie Mooney re»idcred several duets and the firm er amused with several c f his original stories. An oyster supper was s< rved and it was nearly midnight when the party ad­journed. Tbe hots were greatly pleased with tbe occasion. During the supper a flashlight picture was taken by S.Cuyler Green.”

Bath Times: “ When Augus'a wins, the Kennebec Journal devotes a column or a col umn and a half to the game and gives it 1 twenty point head. When the team loses it Is luckv to get a third o f a column and an eight point head.” For further particulars see the accouut of the Augusta-Rockland game in Saturday’s Jonrnal.

Boston G lobe:— Manager Burnham is spending a few daya in town. H e saya polo is drawing pretty well in Maine, hut that sala­ries must he kept down to reasonable figures i f the game is to la^t. [W e wonder how much W al er has to pay Furhnsh ] • • DickFurbush sax a every time he stops a man the home umpires in the Maine Irague call a foul on him.

The Rocklands played two g met away from home last week, winning b'dh This week they have Iwo away, one in Bath to-night and Gardiner tomorrow night. The games at home w ill be, Gardiners Saturday night to d Augustas Monday night,

H . G. Bird accompanied the team on tbe Augusta, and Gardiner trip.

McGown o f the Gardiners got a call down from the B »ah»n papers for Irving to get Bartlett and Gr ffin to break their contract wiih 'he Salcins. The call down was deserved for McGown, nor any other man should be upheld in getting plgvers to break contracts. Let US keep outside of the National league if possih'e. One great troa' lc with a nurohf-r of the M aine teams is the fact that there bas been too much experimenting with players.

The new ad­dition Io our fire department it an unmislak- able dandy and such a nice j >b have Ibe con­tractors done « n it that we can almost ex­cuse them for rating their own lime about ir.

The wsgon weighs just a ton and carries 1,000 leer o f hose, betides having accommo datruns for eight men. I t is attractivply painted in red, with shining brass trimmings and attached to the tear are two chemical fire extinguishers for use in case of a small blare.

I t is tbe intention of Ibe fire departmeni folks to use it as a supply wagon for the pres ent. W hen an alarm i f fire is rung in, tb-s

what w ill happen, barring exhibitions: Tbe hose companies will respond Io the alarm as usual. One pair of hones w ill be bitched into the new hose wagon and another pair into tbe hook and ladder truck and Ihe two pieces of apparatus w ill be whirled away t i ­the scene of ihe fire as fast as two smart drivers and four active horses can get them theie. As soon as the horse hose wag- n reach ea li t destination,the horses w ill tie driven back to therngine bouse where they w ill he hai- nessed into ihe steamer i f that piece of appar alus seems necessary. -’Sandy” Manson will probably have charge of the hone hose wagon and his en g in em will Ire getting Ihe ste.im r in readintss while the former is on itsw ar. A t least this idea w ill he carried out as an xperiment and its advantage over the present

system seems to lie in Ihe fact that with the supply wagon in operation, the hose and a bountiful supply ol it, will be o t the scene ol the fire some minutes before the other appara­tus would have reached there. Particularly would th ii he (hr case if the ‘ going’’ was very bad. N ew ideas w ill probably suggest tb.mselves in the course of events, but any way you can figure tbe new machine w ill he a valuable one for our fire protection and the city government has displayed wisdom in se­curing it. The cost was s'ightly over 8400 and the city was tn tb led to get a splendid trade ft r ihe reason that the film which built it never put forth anything of the kind, and «as anxious to introduce the catt in this sec lion.

The Ch'll Mid Winter Air Permeated With Their FragranoB — Engagement Announced-

The marriage o f Miss Annie L . Crie of this city and Elbert E. Be.-se of Cnicago, occuried in the latter city, Saturday, Jan. 9. The bride has always made her home in Rockland, but for some seasons past has been employed as head milliner for u leading firm in Warren, Mas*. She is a graduate of our high school and for a number of years was a prominent mover in Rockland’s younger so­ciety. H er marriage to Mr. Besse, w ho , i* the son of a f rmer Methodist minister, is almost a complete surprise here, for, with the

xception o f a few of her more intimatefriends, details of the f irthcoming event were unknown. Tbit will by no nuans prevent the proffering of cordial congratulations.

Maynard Fs Webster, mate of the New York steamer Pentaguet, and a very popular Rockland young man, was united in marriage last Wednesday evening to Miss Mary

lutchingson of D.*er Isle. The ceremonv was performed by Rev. C. W. Uradlee in the presence of a few relatives, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W alter E. Mayo, corner of Chestnut and North Main streets. Mr. and Mrs. Webster go at once to housekeeping, having apartments with Mrs. Hunt, School street. The happy couple are wished muchpro-penty.

MBs Clarice L . Anderson, who is attending the Castine Normal School, < fficiated as maid of honor at the marriage of Miss Lucy Morgrage o f Castine and Le»ter E . Richard-

of Brewer, which occurred at Ihe former place, Friday, Jan 8 The biide is a distant relative of Mis-. Anderson and a young lady of rare personal charms. The marriage took place at “ The Downs,” the charming home of tbe bride’s parents, and where Miss Andersonbas frequently visited.

The raising of choice fowl hss become quite a fad in the city and about all yun can hear now in certain quarters is, “ How many fowl have you g »t ? ' “ How are y »nr hens laying?” W hat do you use for food?” etc., etc.

The fowl are not the common every-day- go-as-you please kind but all are of fancy stock and as much care is being used in rais­ing them as a person generally spends on a pet horse or s ime b >bby he might have.

I t is not altogether the men of mature age who have gone into tbe business for some of the best fl »ck« in the city are owned hy young men who are enthusiastic over the idea.

This may seem a strange industry f »r a city like Rockland, and indeed It does savor much of the country, but the fowl do not take up much room and most of their food is pur- chased.

Charles T . Spear is one o f the most en­thusiastic o f the m m y a linkers of fowl and what he don't know ab.»u. fowl could be written on one side of a po-tal card. He has a fl ck of about 100 birds, mostly young, but they weigh from 4 to 12 pounds each They consist of Bramah*. Br-'wn Leghorns, Partiidge Cochins, W hite Plymouth Rocks, Tornado game, lri«h Greys and Black Breasted Reds. M r. .Spear has quite a number of birds on exhibition in his store and they have been greatly admired by all who have seen them. Mr. S jear has every­thing necessary for the pr-qier raising of fowl whether for market or for egg producing and it is indeed intesting to learn something of the modern methods. Mr. Spear finds more pleasuiv in talking about fowl and their needs than he does in pol 1 games or in eating first class dinner. Besides his own birds M r. Spesr has some belonging to other parties on exhibition.

J. Raymond Kittredge, the son of W . H . Kittredge, is another enthusiast. H e has fl >ck of about 30, which he is gradually in­creasing, and he finds much pleasure in hit occupation. His fl »ck consists o f Minorcas, Plymouth Rocks, Games and Leghorns and there isn’t a poor looking bird among the lot. Saturday he received a full bloode 1 M inorca from C. E Marshall of R«wley, Mass. Ray mond has Lis birds nicely housed and is look­ing forward (o a goodly supply of eggs in the Sprng.

C. E. Rising hss always been a great fan cier of fowl and some years ago had a laige fl ick but he sold out. To keep away from them he could not so he has again g >ne into the business and he now makes a specialty of of Brahams, His fl ck is yet small but he intends to increase it from time to time.

Mowry & Payson, the Park street manu­facturers, intend to be extensive ra'sers and their modern equiped hen house near their factory has created many commendable com­ments. They will make a specialty of Bra­mahs. T h rir fl ick now consists of ahont 15 Hut will be increased in the Spring to 250 Their birds are as favorably commented on as the pintB they manufacture. They expect to do great things and we rather think they will.

A llie McDonald, who is well known f »r his sporting propensities, has a fl ick of Game birds. They are beauties and if put into the pit would give a good account of themselves. H e ha* a number of different varieties, ail well worth looking at. /

Billie” Chapman, who lives on the Thomaston road, also makes a specialty of Games. H e now has has a fl »ck of about 25 and each bird bas the pleasure of occupying a separate pen.

Sa uel Gray has a flock o f about 100, con­sisting of Black Minorcas Mnd Game. They are of fancy breed and make a splendid showing.

Nat Meservey has a fl ick of Bramahs and Plymouth Rocks that lays eggs faster than Nat can eat them, so 'tis said.

M r. Howard, o f the Howard Cigar Co., is also a gieat admirer of fowl and at hit home on Rankin street can be seen a fine assort* ment of Top-nots. Like sll the rest we hsve mentioned M r. Howard intends to largely in ­crease h's stock in the Spring.

Gardiner Farrand has as nice looking a fl ick of Plymout Rocks as can be found in town and his birds would put to blusb many we have have seen at agricultural fairs.

W illiam Orberton, who lives at Blacking- ton’s Corner, is also a heavy raiser, and if you are toojpoor to pay car fare a look at bis birds would amply repay you for walking.

There are many others in the city who hsve become devotees of fowl raising and of whom we will speak at some future time.

By next Fall it would be a gr -nd good idea if we could have a poultry »how for wiih what birds we now hsve and are going to have a very creditable exhibition could be given but this is something we will talk about later.

L ike everything else fabulous pi ices bsve been paid for full blooded stock bu* an extra good 1 ird can he obtained for $2.50 to $15.

man in England paid fioOO f >r a chicken a short time ago, although the fact i | not a basis f<>r speculation as to E ig h th pou'try m u ket prices. In point of L e t the price was considered so ou'rageous even for a gamecock that the story < f the sale when it first began to circu'ate Lund few believers. But it Mas a genuine sale. The money was paid and the chicken taken. It was at the Birmingham poultry show that this remark­able transaction took place. The gamecock in question, a fine black red, is said to tie one of ihe m< at perfect of its kind in exis'ance.I t has a wonderful reach, is considtrrn

Imost perfect in shape and size, while i's ue tail is one of its best points. I t has a

fine ancestral record of pr zes and triumphs and is a heavy winner itself. The own. r of tbe bird was M r. Hugo Ainscough, and the pu'C"a*er was Cap'. Ilea non, agent o f the earl of EUesm re. The bird was not worth the money paid, no m a'trr how perfect it might be but then, the Earl o f EHcsmeie pr i>ably has money to burn.

THE METHODIST LECTURE.

The lecture to be put on by Ihe Epwort' League at the Methodist church Monday evening Jan. 25, is not a money making scheme, hut rather is intended for the mutual benefit of the society and its friends, and la in direct harmony with one of its depart rnent. of work.

The lecturer, Rev. F. E. W hite, of Houlton is one of Maine's popular young pastors. I lls lecture on ‘‘Queer Folks” has furnished many audiences with an enjoyable and profitable evening.

The league invite* its many friends to attend the lecture, a small admission fee will be charged to pay expenaea.

In order to meet h it appointment for M on­day evening Mr. White will arrive in our city Saturday and has consented to supply the pulpit for pastor Bradlee next Sunday, the 24th.

SILVER STAR SOLO-

Captiin Archibald Looking for i larger Cnfl and a longer Route—Sltyer Slar'a Future-

Captain Archibald of Rockland intends to ex'end his steamboat line from B->oihhay to Rockland, to Bar Harbor during the Winter month*,while the M t. Desert is < ff W ith this end in view he haa disposed of bia steamer tbe Silver Star, which would be too small for this purpose, and has made the Harpswell line people an t ffer for the steamer Merrycondag I f the offer is accepted the boat will go on the Boothbay, Rockland and Bar H Arbor line. Pending Captain Archibald's negotiations for the Merryconeag he has placed the steamer W . G Butman on the line between Boothbay and Koik'and. The extension of the line will not interfere with the connections with the Salacia. Castine parties bought the Silver Star and under the command of Capt. Small- idge «he tailed Saturday, first having received

ight repairs to her tubing. I t ia understood, tnat tbe Silver Star will compete for b(he steamer Castine’s patronage.

The Mount Lebanon Shakers have in ­vented a great many valuable things They were the first to make brooms hy machinery; tbe first to put up seeds in little packages; the first to roanufa.ture cut nails.

Now they are out with a method of curing dyspepsia by resting the stomach. Their remedy is known as tbe Shaker Digestive Cordial. I t sup; lies food ia an aniticially digested form and ai the same time aids the digestion of other foods in the stomach. In oiber word*, by the use of the Shaker Diges­tive Cordis1, a dyspeptic virtually gets along without the use of his stomach umil it is re­stored to its natural strength and vigor. A single 10 cent bottle will ofttimes give marked relief. Get a bottle from your druggist and try it.

Laxol is the best medicine for children. Doctors recommend it in place o f Castor O il.

DEARTH of STEAMBOATS

Scuoll) of Thai Ait o's In this Part ol Penob tool flay Veaterda,

Yesterday was a du ’l day along the wharves and water was about the only thing visible in the harbor. The coasters seemed to have taken wings and sought berths where the chine is warmer than it is along our water front.

S eainboats were at a premium. The Gov. Bodwell constitu'iiig the sole arrival of ibe day up to 5 o’clock when Cap’. Crockett’s steamer Ju-iet'e made her landing. Word had got around that the Juliette was down E Isworth way w in a broken shaft and would n t arrive last night, but the telephone dis­puted this statement as did the Juliette her­self only au hour or so later than her usual time.

The steamer Vinalbaven did not arrive yesterday and when darkness set in no word bad been beard of her whereabouts. She met with a slight accident to her machinery

as to have hauled off val here yesterday,

she became disabled und was unable to coutinue, or what is • q 4 illy as probable she may o<>t have left Vinalbaven. She was due here at 10 A. M yoteniay

Nothing definite as to wbal w ill be done by. the B. B. S. S. Co. had been received here yesterday, but it is thought doubtful by some if theie will be any boat on the route until tbe 1st of March. The Lewiston bad been car­rying a fairly good passenger. Ib t, but the freight was anything but weighty. However an announcement will probably be issued in a short time.

MARRIAGES.There were only sevto couples united in

worth.

There baa been very little building don> during the year, probably leas than 85000 would pay for all that has been done, th e n has been practically no changes made in th< business done in town. There has been > new bridge erected at North Appleton at a cost o f neatly 8>ooo.

W hat the town needs is railroad and tele­graphic and telephone connections with thr outside world and we are in hopes to hurt these at s >me time. The writer earnestly hopes they may be a reality before this cen­tury has passed away but we do not profess to be gifted with second sight and therefore cannot say. W e alto hope that the year 1897 wriH »*« Ihe general reviral of busineas and that the heavy clouds of the great busi­ness depression ol the past year w ill roll away with advance of the new year.

One day there arrived at Prairie Oity a man from Grizzly Gnlob—a bold, bad man, with long hair, n voice like the roar of a lion and a terrible thirst for rich red blood. He etood on the pnblio fqnare nnd whooped till he drew a crowd. Then he flung down big hat nnd cried ont- that Grizzly Gnlch wna full of b’arg and rattleguakeg and ceutipedg and alligators, but that every varmint nnd reptile fled in terror ut sound of big footsteps. He suid he had been scalped by Indians, run over by wild horses, struck by lightning, pursued by a prairie fire and drawn down by quicksands, but he still lived and wus hungry for hu­man ears fried in bacon greaso. When things went his \\ny, he wus as goojj natnred as a buby and would go a mile ont of his way rather than disturb a sleeping coyote, bnt when things went wrong, then look ont I Ho could remem­ber tbe names of 21 men he had buried, and he had a poor memory at that. He was natnrally a peaceful man, bat once aronsed he could not Sold himself and would not be responsible for damages.

The stranger continued talking in this strain for a quarter of an hour, by which time the crowd had tuken his measure. He had stopped for breath and was gcttiDg ready to jump on his hat agaiu when a man who had been lean­ing against the front of a shanty saloon lonnged ovor to him and drawled ont:

"Stranger, whar did ye say ye hailed from?”

"From Grizzly Gulch, sir, and Griz­zly Gnlch is tbe beginnin of Fightin creek!"

"And ye've killed men?”"Acres of ’em. ”“ And held towns?""A dozen of ’em .”"And yer name? What might yer

name be?”“ My name? Whoopi Thar ain’t a crit­

ter in Ibis hall keutry what don’t trem­ble when ho hours it I My numc, sir, ar' Three Ace Jim . ”

“ S-o?” drawled the Pruirie Oity man. “ Wual, I ’m sorry fnr ye, really sorry. ”

"Don’t go fur to rile uiel” shouted the stranger as he flung bis arms about “ Who bo ye that ye ar’ sorry fur Three Ace Jimi"

"I'm Four Ace Juck, ” replied the other us ho puiled a guu uud touched the stranger's nose with the muzzle, "and us four aces alius beats three I reckon ye’d better travel 1”

“ Suy,” said the man from Grizzly Gnlch after u long look around, “ I ’ve got pressiu bizuess over ut Cudur City, and if this yere crowd w ill kindly ex­cuse me I'll bo goiul"

Wo watched hiui until be wus half a mile away—wutehed him, with no man speakiug a word. Then the man with tbe guu restored it to its holster uud started buck for the saloon with the muttered exclamation:

"BahI Ho was only a duller.”

O b lig in g u S c lio o ln ia 'a u i.

A schoolniu'nm liad arrived at the frontier towu to begin her duties, nod tbe dozen men who saw her get out of tbe stage uud enter the hotel agreed that she wus young and good looking; also that she wus probably nervous, aud that the boys hadn't ought to du any shootiug on thut first night uud keep her awake. The girl wus ut supper wheu Bill Green entered t it room, cup in baud; introduced hitnselt, uud udded:

"Thar’s a critter in towu named Joe Goss, uud I've said I'd shoot him ou sijhit. Beiu us it might disturb ye, however, I'll put the shootiu off fur a day or two."

The schoolmu’um thanked him with •11 her heart, and be withdrew, but she (.ad ouly retired to the sitting room wheu Bill reappeared to suy;

"Thar’s a duffer in town who says he kin make me eat dirt. Hev ye uuy ob- jeeksbuns to my staudin up to him?”

"Would there be a quarrel?" she asked.

"tiartinly, ma'am.""Aud shooting?""Of course. ”“ Then I wish you wouldn’t.""A ll right, ma'am, all right. Fur

She thought she had seen the last of Bill for that night, hut she hadn't. She was being ahown to her room when he met her in the hull and anxiously said:

"Thar’s a wall eyed heathen out yere who needs shootin, but I won’t do it tonight on aceonnt of ye. I ’d like fo nx yo. however, if I might take three drinks at the bar?”

“ But you might get drunk.”“ Oh, no. I ’ll take tlireo drinks and

then fling my hat down and jump on it .”

“ But no quurreling. ’’"No, ma'am. I’ll jump ou my hat

and hoot, nnd some cuss w ill tnekle me, and I ’ll chaw his ears off and gougo his eye out, und vc won’t hear a sound or lose u wink of Hleep. All right, ma’am, all right.

After Arizona Bill had held np three or four of the stuges on the Deadwood line tbo manager sent word to him to meat him ut a certain point for a busi­ness talk, and both were on hand at tbe appointed hoar.

"Look here, B ill,” began the man­ager, "how much are you muking out of this deal?"

"Just fair wages,” replied Bill. "I think I got about $600 off the fonr stages, und that's nothing to brag about Some of the boys on the other lines are raising $1,000 at a clip. It’s a poor lot of passengers yon nro sending out, colo­nel."

"They are afraid to travel with mon­ey, and this thing has got to stop. Tbe sheriff says he cun hunt yon down in a week. ”

"He’s a duffer, colonel, and you know i t He can't hunt me down in n year. ”

"Bnt I can hire fonr or five men to track you down und kill you."

“ You can hire 'em, of course, but they'd want big pay, and then they might not find uie. Take it all aronnd, colonel, I ’ve got the bulge ou your line. None of the drivers cun shoot for shucks, and us for the passengers, they couldn'thit a red br-n a rod off. It’s a reg’lai soft suup for mo."

"Say, B ill," continued tbe oolouol after awhile, "you've always had the repututiou of beiug a square cuss.”

“ Yes, I reckon I hev.”“ And I wunt you to be square about

this matter. I ’m willing to meet yon half w ay."

" A s to how?”"As to buying you off. How much’ll

thinking it over, " I’ve got a purty good thing of it, hut I dou’t waut to act mean or play the hog. Gimme $700, uud I'll haul off."

"Make it $500, Bill, to oblige uie personally. ”

“ Waul, suy $500 then, though it ’s dog cheap. It’s ouly fur your line, though?”

"Only my line, and here’s your me > ey, uud I sliull expect you to stick to the ugreemeut. ”

of horseflesh represented in the illustra­tions show the points of the different families an well as any piotnres we have seen.

Two are draft, two are travelers. The first one is a magnificent Perchoron. im­ported. He is the kind of horse that has been aptly named "the farmer's trot­

1-KllCHEttON.ter. ” Where there is a market for large and handsome drafts, the Peroheron w ill be as good a “ trotter” as the or­dinary farmer can raise.

There is always a domand for those splendid grays in tbo oities, for express nnd beer wagons nnd for wholesale gro­ceries that pririo themselves on the looks of their teams. Grade Peroherons, if large and handsome, alBO bring good prices.

The second illustration shows the heaviest type of draft horse, the huge Shire.

Tho Shire is the great draft horse of Enghwd, where things must bo heavy and strong, even wheu there is no need

RUIRE.of it. At the annual royal agricultural show iu England sornn years over 600 Shires are entered in tho various classes.

A full grown Shire is sometimes 17 bands high and weighs considerably over a ton. The ono in the picture is in height 16.2. He wus sold in England for tho great sum of $12,600. This shows tho estimation in which the Shire is held at home. In Anioricn he is con­sidered rather heavy and slow for every­day nse, though fnr the heaviest trucks upon Ihe docks and wharfs this horse would undoubtedly he in demnnd.

Very different is tho Froneh coaching stallion here shown. Ho, too, is a for­eign animal.

The trimming of his mane seems pe- onliurlv Frenohy. Tho beuutifnl French couohers present the largest typo of our-

FRENCH C O A C llK Itriuge uuimul. They aro 16 hands high and sometimes more. The cross of tbe French couching stallion upon good sized American trotting mares would apparently produce the ideal carriage horse.

Last of all we offer you Jierewitb the pioturu of an American horse, us purely American us uuy can be.

Ethan Allen IU is a stallion of the pure Vermont Morgan blood descended from Vermont Blackhawk. Ho is con­sidered one of the finest living types of the royal Morgan blood. Ho is 16.2 in height aud weighs 1,100 pouuds. Iu color he is bay. His delicate, finely poised head shows the Morgan life aud spirit. Imported knimuls are well

enough, but we w ill put this Yankee aguiust uuy one of them in all the qual­ities that go to make a perfect horse. We cauuot have too much Morgan iu this country. Bred for size, these horses cau be made tu fill tbe bill for uuy kind of driving purposes. They make excep­tionally flue saddlers too. They drop dead in tbe truces before they w ill give up, uud they are the kindest uud most intelligent creutures.

NATURE'S YIELD-

Magnitude of Granite ind Llmeitoss Induitrks In Mains Ihe Put Vsir.

Ih the last report of the geolngicol survey is Burned up tbe magnitude of the granite in­dustry in the state for a year. Maine's gran­ite product, quarried from her rock-ribbed hills, was worth $1,400,000. The paving blocks cut during the year were worth $636,063 I be granite output by years from 1890 to 1894 was as follows: 1890, $2,225,- 839; 1891, $2,200,000; 1892. $2,300,000; 1893, £1 274,954; and 1894, $1,551,036. It will be seen that ihcre has been a marked falling off in the amount o f business that the granite firms of the state have been doing in the last four or five years.

Tbe geological director says quite a large number of small quatries have ceased opera­tions altogether for a time but they will prob­ably resume when general business improves. Operators who have continued through the past Ihree years without interruption have complained of poor business and constantly lowering prices, especially in case of paving blocks.

The increasing use of asphaltum pavement and of various kinds of paving bricks is be­ginning to be felt by produceis of Belgian blocks, which, on being thrown out in large cities, have declined in price sufficient to allow o f iheir use in some towns that have hitherto been content with macadam or simi­lar cheap paving material. Some of the pro­ducers of the finer kinds of granite are com­plaining of competition with Scotch granite, which, they say, is more profitable to dealets than tbe American.

Maine's product of limestone last year was worth $700,000, of which $600,000 is tbe value of lime and $100,000 of that used for road making and building. The value of the product by years is given here: 1890, £ * ’523 499; 1891. $1,200,000; 1892. $1,600,- OOo; 1893, £*.I75»OOO; 1894, $810,089 I* will be seen that there has been a remarkable falling off for (he limerock industry in ihe slate.

In commenting on the product of Maine the report says that the limestone o f Maine is almost entirely burned into lime, which enters quite largely into Ihe markets of the more important ci'ies on tbe Atlantic coast, particularly New York. Since 1892 the pro­duction has notably decreased, perhaps on account of the competition with Canadian lime.

Report of Fish Commltiloner Will Reiea! Soma Ver, Interesting Facts

A report of ihe fish commissioner (his year will prolwbly show that the law for Ihe pro­tection of lobsters has worked well. It is said that Portland alone has shipped this year 1,000,- ,000 more lobslera than last, which increase is more than the whole catch of Massachusetts. The immense gain, it is estimated, would be the natural production of but thirty five hun­dred lobsters, so prolific a fish it ia. Good judges do not think (hat ihe recent attempts to transplant tbe lobster to (he Pacific will be successful as con itious there are not favora­ble.

give a complete list of ihe Warren lecture course w-ith names and date*: I , The Louise Callahan Concert Co , Thursday, January 21; 2, S im Walter Foss, Poet Humoris', in his l«cure, “ Tne Average M an," February 2; 3," The Devil in Black and W hite" r»y Leroy a.

Underhill, impersonat >r. The guarantors of this course h.Ve felt much en couraged by the public interest manifested In ihe su.'C«ss of the course. It is a source of pride that something beside the average travelling vulgarity and cheat hnds good support here. Only a day or so ago, "a flyer" was pu into y«»ur correspondents hands announcing the presence among us of a woman, who if able to fulfill her claims, could make herself immensely rich through her knowledge of stock fluctuations. Yet she was « ffered as a great attraction about the Country in a fifteen cent show I These miserable vulgarities alwavs seem to expect patronige in Warren, and it is a comfort to know that they sometimes get starved out.

Business continues dull at the shoe-shop. T h e employers deserve special sympathy in that ju t now they were not expecting it. Bui all signs point to a revival of business.

By some mistake last week this column was raide to say that the Louise Callahan concert company would be here last week, but it comes J*n. 21 La>t week over fifty reseaved sea s were taken.

A B nbm srln . M nnntaln In I tin M ld d l. nt th e Attftntto Ocean.

Almost nt the very center of the At* lnntio ocean—only a trifle nnrtb of th, equator and aboot half wav between Booth America and Africa—is a snb- mnrine nioantain so hiRh that, in spit* of the immense depth of the sea,'11 thrusts its penk 70 feet above the waves. This peak, startling from ils position, forms a labyrinth cf islets, ihe whole not over half a mile in cironmferenoe, known as St. Pant's rocks. Bo steep is the mnnutaiu, of which this lonely rest­ing place nf sen birds is thesnmmit, that one mile from tiicse rocks a 600 fathom line with which sonndings wero at­tempted by K osb on bis voyage to the Antarctic failed to toneb bottom.

Were tho bed of Iho sea to besaddunly elevated to a level with tho dry laud, SI. Paul's rocks would be the cloud capped peak of 11 moautaiu rising in sheer ascent in the midst of a broad plain. They nro supposed ,0 have been formed by the same diatnrbanon cf na­ture which sepnruted tho Cape Verda is­lands from Africa.

Treacherous currents mnke navigation in the vicinity of these rocks dangorona. A Brazilian naval officer, who passed them ou an Euglisb steamer, tells ma that the eveuiug before they expeoted to sight them he was told by the captain that at 6 o’clock in the morning they would appeur about five miles w est A* thut hour the officer wont on deck and looked to tho westward— nothing baton expause of heaving sea. He chanced to turn, and there, five miles to the east­ward wore—the rocks. The currents had, in less than 13 hoars, carried a full powered steamer ten miles out of her course.—Gustav Kobbo iu S t Nich­olas.

M anning and th e J esu its .Edmund S. Purcell, who wrote tba

biogruphy of Curdiual Manning that was so widely diseussed uud iu some quarters condemned, wrote n paper for The Nineteeuth Century eutitlcd “ On the Ethics of Suppression In Biogra­phy,’’ in which ho makes un interesting statement concerning Manning's rela tious to the Jesuits:

Cardinal Manning could not endnr. —it was not iu his nature— to Ixa looked upon by the Jesuits as un “ enomy of vital godliness.” They fcil under his bun. Metaphorically be “ cursod I bam with hell, book anil caudio, ” Iu a laughing fashion their retort cams qniok:

Cardinal* may come, curdinul* may go.But wu go on forevor.

Curdinul Manning, us is known of all mon, regurded the suppression of Iho Booiety of Jesns iu 1773 us tho work o? God's hand. He likewise looked upon its restoration in 1837 as God’s work. Bnt his abiding hostility to the Jesuit,, bused, as he declared, on tiieir corporate action in England uud Homo, wus testi­fied by the prediction which ho ottered ou various oocusioLis, "I foresee another 1778.”

An Accident Which Disibted Ihe Stumer Law lilon Sunday-ho Boils at Pretent-

An associated press despatch from Boston dated hunriay has the following in relation to the s>eamer Lewiston's acrid n t :

Steamer Lewiiton of the Boston & Bangor line was towed back to this city today with a broken shaft. Capt. Ingraham stated he left Foster's wharf at 4 Saturday afternoon for W interport. Shortly after 5 < ff Big Rock, Nahant, the starboard shaft broke in the inner j >urnal, making half an inch crack. The crew after tome difficulty lashed the shaft to the upper bulkhead of the paddle box to lessen the danger of losing it.

The steamer anchored and commenced fir­ing rockets for assistance. There waa no alarm among the few passengers on b >ard.K learner Portland saw the signals and went to the assistance ot the Lewiston. A hawser was paired on board the Portland and she towed the disabled steamer to quarantine, where it lay at safe anchorage until 8 a. m. today when tug Henry Rcussel came down from the city and towed the steamer to her whaif.

The Penobscot is undergoing an extensive overhauling to her machinery, so it is likely the company w ill charter another boat as the new steamer City of Bangor is said to be to too expensive for Winter service.

One o f our customers writes, “ I neves risk taking a cough cure recommended by my friends, I have always found yours an immed­iate relief and after a few doses a p rsitive cure. W hy then should I take anything but Adamson's Botanic Cough Balsam.

Rocklands Have Off Night and Streak of Hard Luck.

Maine State Base Ball Leagne—Pros­pects are V» ry Bright For One—Will Rockland Be I h It Ik the Question Now Being Agitated — Cracks of Polo Sticks.

The championa put up a poor article of polo against the green stockinged Lewis to ns, Thursday night and were beaten bands down.

John Quinn of last season's Thomaston team is in the city and Thomaston visiting old friends. H e is looking the picture of health and is waiting anxiously for the warm days of Summer.

The many friends of “ B illy" Molloy in Knox county will be pained to learn that he is suffering from ibeumatism and rheumatic fever. I t is hard to te ll at this writing whether or not it w ill effect his pitching next Summer. W e sincerely hope not.

I t was decidedly an off night for our boys with a streak of hard luck and they couldn’t have beaten the Lewistons with twice as many men. Capt. Campbell could neither stop or hit the ball, neither could Charlie Gay and when these two experts with the polo sticks did get a whack at the sphere it was either stopped by “ K id" Broadbent, or went into the cage and came out again, or it didn t come within a mile or two of the cage. Maynard did some pretty blocking but he cither knocked the ball to the other side of the rink or passed it to some other "feller" und the same might be said of Foster. As for M ike O ’Malley, our g ilt edged goal tend, who can usually stop buhets, cannon balls and the like, Thursday night he couldn’t stop a foot ball. Scientific work was woefully lack­ing. I t was one o f those nights. Every man was feeling in fine mettle and no one was more surprised at the result than them­selves. This will happen, you kn w, some­time and ’tis not likely that they w ill ever play another game like it.

On the other hand the Lewistons played brilliant polo. Their passing was scientific, their drives for the cage accurate, their block ing superb and there didn’t seem to be any occasion f j r their rough playing for they could have won without it.

Then they had luck with them. Broadbent stopped a number which he acknowledged was by the sheerest luck. Rockland drove f «nr into the cage only to have them come out again and Lewiston h ippei ed to be where Uv ban was every lime. Nevertheless they

played all around Rockland, a thing not likely to happen again in many moons, l i would be bard to individual ze the work of (be visitors for they all played as if their •i'« depended on it but the work o f young Tarrant outshone the work of any player on the floor.

I t was a rough game from the beginning and the work of the players looked more like the performance of a crowd o f acrobats in a tir cus ting than that of polo players for hand Fpnngs tumblii g and contortion acts were more frrquent than good polo plays.

The base ball prospects in college circles are vtry bright and bales bids fair to put one of the strongest teams on the diamond the has ever had. Capt. Slattery is already busy and has selected 20 men for cage practice this Winter. Slattery, Burrill and Pulsifer will uphold the dignity of the team in the tx x and will be a bard trio to beat. Puriing- loo, 1900, w ill try to fill Gerrisb’s place be hind the bat and 'tis said be w ill do it to per­fection while be w ill greatly add to the bat­ting strength of the team. The players men tie ned above are all well and favorably known iu Knox County base ball circles.

A meeting ( f the New England base ball league was held at the Parker House, Hosloo, Wednesday.

1 be board of directors considered the pro­test ot Bangor against the Fall River club for the championship on account ot games played illegally last season. The board found the Fail River club had taken no undue advan­tage of its rival;that there had simply been an cxibauge of dales, which was perfectly legal.

The game awarded to Fall River for failure of the New Bedford club to provide « ffi.’i l l balls was found perfectly fair and the um­pire awarded the game according to rules.

I W e never did think it was fair and we have seen or heard nothing to convince us of any-

I thing different, notwithstanding the decision of the board.

There will be no M aine teams in the league this season. N ew Bedford has also dropped out. The league w ill undoubtedly consist of Fall River, Newport, Pawtucket, Brockton, Taunton, Low ell, either Lawrence or Nashua and perhaps New Bedford under a diflerent management. •

Tim Murnane of the Globe was re-elected presiaent and Jake Morse of the Herald sec­retary.

The outlook for the season is said to be very promising.

That there will be a M aine state base ball ball league next Summer is almost an assured fact, and the meeting that w ill soon be held will be attended by representatives from Lew­iston, Augusta, Bangor, Portland and quite likely Rockland and Bath.

Rockland is a good base ball city but what will be done for next year is a hard question to answer. The difficulty here seems to be in getting some one who can afford to give some time in looking after the interests of a team.

In Lewiston if the association does not care to place a club, an outside manager will try and secure the franchise, and there is also a well known spotting man who has bad ex­perience in base ball, who would like to fe cure it.

In Bangor i f the association fails to come to time Chris Toole of that city w ill look after a club there. M r. Toole says; “ I t would surely be a financial success and it could be easily demonstrated that the patrons of the game would be furnished with as fast base ball as they ever saw in the New England league."

In Augusta the old association will back a team all right.

In Bath, M r. Downell, manager of the polo team in that city, is ready to put a team in the field and i f be should back out then either Saco or Biddeford would like to enter.

Thomaston has also been spoken of as a good place for a team but Rockland and Thomaston could not both support teams in a state league. Thomaston can be considered out of the question altogether.

I t is thought that the milleDium plan which proved so successful in the N ew England league in 1892 w ill be advocated with a view ◦ f keeping the salary lim it down. This would no doubt prove successful if the league could secure a secretary capable o f signing the players and alloting them as nearly equal as possible.

The traveling and other expenses of a State league, according to the figures of a manager of experience, would be so light that 1,000 people per week would pay all expenses, pro­vided that all the clubs w ill live up to a $900 lim it per month, and as each club w ill have three home games each week it can readily be seen that each game would only have to draw about 300 people.

One thing w ill be necessary to insure suc­cess, and that would be in the signing of players, as many o f the old and well known players as possible should be signed so that the patrons would receive fast base ball.

A ll hands up for base ball next Summer. It is grand good sport, besides brings much money into the city. Base ball has done much to advertise Rockland.

Now if Lew i ton and Bath w ill only beat P o rtla n d w e w ill be happy.

There is lots of luck as well as good and bad playing in polo.

The management of the Gardiner team in ­tends to leave no stone unturned to have a team that will make the Latest teams in the league hustle. McGowan took a trip to Massachusetts last week ana whjje there en­deavored to secure Bartlett and G iiffiu, ceuitr and second rush,of the Salems of the Natiou-

1 league. The offers though liberal werenot accepted.

There are nine o f M aine’s ex-governors living and enjoying good health. W hat other stale in the union can say as much?

Gov. Powers said in his inaugural address (hat the young men of state are remaining here. The population in Maine increased last year 15,000.

Twelve murders were committed in Maine the past year and the advocate* of the death penalty are crying for tbe abolition o f the life sentence.

A Portland Sunday T im et reporter hat been investigating tbe question of bow many cigars are amoked in that city each week, and placet tbe figures at 150,000.

Monhegan, M e., must be firmly anchored at present, as it sits in ihe sea aurrounded by its J2OO lobster traps. A resident with a head for ngures remarks that the amount ol rope used in these traps, if in one straight line, would reach from tbe island to Portland.

The youngest member o f the Maine Senate is only 26 years old. In N ew Hampshire the constitution requires that a senator shall be 30. The member of the Maine House is 23, 1 tie oldest 86. There are only live Democrats io tbe Maine Legislature, all of them being in the House.

H e who undertakes to explore the average attic it apt to make some queer discoveries. A Bowdoinham man who was rummaging round in one o f these receptacles of all aorta of things, last week, took up an old book which opened to a tive-dollar gold piece. As a good husband should, he immediately went to his wife with the find, and on that lady’s turning over the leaves a little more, a five dollar greenback was diacloaed. The book had been stored in tbe attic lor nearly twenty years; but the father o f the finder, on being told o f the discovery, remembered that years ago, when he kept the book in h i. room, he at times when be had a spare piece of money, deposited it between tbe leaves, and said he must have forgotten to take them all out.

I t is estimated that the m ilk inspector saves Lewiston people 63500 a year.

I t is reported that Brara, the man convicted of the murder of Capt. Nash, is well known to (he officials o f Washington county having vis­ited that vicinity several years ago and was arrested for breaking into several stores in Eastport and Calais and sentenced to two years in Machias ja il from which institution ne managed to escape. H e gave the name of Charles Christie but as the photograph of Bram exactly compared with the looks ot Christie the officials feel confident he is the same party. Christie came there in a vessel which was plying between Machias, Eastport and N ew York.

Cats have neighborly instincts, as every one knows who has fed the gaunt and neglected felines of the vicinage. In Westbrook, there is a cat, one Romeo, who is possessed of this instinct to a quite remarkable degree, but in a more remarkable degree possesses a faculty for giving it expression. H e rings the door bell o f a neighbor’s house whenever be feels like calling, and as he usually gets a tid bit for his pains, that good, woman is being bothered more by Romeo’s ringing than she is by tramps and pedlers. She is almost con vinced that cats were not intended to know so much.

Biddeford haa a romance. A bewitching French lais had rivals for her favor. One got permission to ska e with her the other evening, and they skated into a hole in the river, where the lover knew the water wasn't deep enough to drown a bahy. H e rescued her with great eclat, and now she thinks him a hero, and the other fellow is entirely in the shade.
