AT ORCHARD KNOB 10,000 People at Dedication of Soldiers’ Monuments. Eloquent Words in the Speeches of Presentation and Acceptance. Exarciset Around Their Monuments by Seven Pennsylvania Regiments. Chattanooga, Tenn.. Nov. 15.—The weather, today, was all that could be desired by the visiting Pennsylvanians. During the morning hours the survi vors of the 27th, 28th, 9th, 147th, 46th, 29th and 111th regiments held impres sive exercises around their various monuments, formally dedicating them. Governor Hastings and General Gobin. with their staff officers, arrived at Or card Knob at 2 o’clock, at which hour the principal exercises of the day were begun in the presence of 10,000 people. The vast assemblage was called to or der by Gen. Wm. A. Robinson, the presiding officer, and Dr. Thomas H. Robinson of Pittsburg, delivered a f-r vent prayer. Then Col. Archibald Iflakeicy, president of the Pennsylva nia commission, presented the monu ment to Governor Hastings in the fol lowing address: I There is hut one Chattanooga, and we are in it, today. We are on Or chard Knoh, one of the many historic heights which surround the growing city now clustering around their feet. We are in the center of a panorama in which nature exhibits her works on the one hand in awful and majestic grandeur and u)*on the other in scenes of ineffable beauty, peaceful as peace and noiseless as the footsteps of Time. We are on the ground where Grant and Thomas trod with giunt tread the mountain paths of Ihe art of war and military science. In the War of the Rebellion, in the autumn of 1863, for three months, nearly 300,000 armed men of the armies of the North and of the armies of the South, engaged in a death struggle over these towering mountains and rugged ridges, along these undulating valleys and plains, by the dark waters of the Chiekamauga and by the sparkling waters of the beautiful Tennessee. In that contest seven distinct con tests were fought. Chiekamauga, Wauhhatehie, Brown's Ferry, Orchard Knol), Lookout Mountain, Missionary Ridge and Ringgold, all of which re sulted- in -victories tar1 the Union army. And the lines upon which they were fought except Ringgold and part of Chiekamauga are within the range of our natural eyes from where we now stand. T^ese battles were fought for the possession of Chattanooga, the geographical center of the Southern Confederacy and the gateway to the Central South. Governor Hastings, we are here to day because in that memorable contest the sons of Pennsylvania were here, they were here in all department of the land service, 12 regiments of infantry, three regiments of cavalry and two companies of artillery; and they were here in all grades of the service from the major general to corporal and the shortest man in the rear ranks. With in a week after our appointment, in July of 1195. your committee organized and from that time until the present day have diligently prosecuted the work entrusted to their hands. And although beset with many vexatious questions and delays it has been to us a labor of love, and the work being finished we are here to tender and turn over to you as to the governor of the commonwealth, the monuments con structed under our superintendence. The great assault on Lookout moun tain was led by Pennsylvania's great warrior John W. Geary, and the 78th Pennsylvania was the first regiment to cross the Loookout mountain into the Chiekamauga valley, and received and delivered the first shots fired in the three months' fight on the tenth of September, 1863, at Dug Gap in the Pigeon mountains; moveover. the parting shots in the great conflict were delivered by the 169th Pennsylvania at Ringgold and to her Pennsylvania troops as they poured their volleys into the fleeing army of Braxton Bragg at Ringgold in the last days of November, 1865. As representatives of our committee and our commission, we tender our thanks to the regimental organizations for their efficient and intelligent help and co-operation. We must thank Captain F. F. Wiehl and the Hon. H. Clay Evans, natives of Pennsylvania, but residents of Chattanooga, for facil itating our labors. And the thanks of the committee, the commission, the survivors of these battles and of ail the people of our commonwealth are due to your intelligent, great-hearted and accomplished adjutant general, Thomas J. Stewart, for his work in the execution of the laws for the trans portation of those old soldiers to this dedication. And to you. Governor Hastings, we are deeply indebted for your courtesies, your kindness, your counsel and your help. When the com ing years have wrinkled your brow and whitened your head, and you draw your mantle around you, waiting th° last call from the great Trinity of your faith and your religion, there is a trinity of words which sounded in your ears will quicken your sluggish pulse and strengthen your weak heart beats Johnstown—Chickamauga—Chatta nooga. Our thanks are due. and we tender them most cheerfully to Edward Ever ett Betts, the painstaking and skilfull engineer of this National Military Park, j From the time that General Henry V. Boynton fought and bled on these flsids to this day, he has made them a study j and In addition to his ether world wide attainments he knows more, to day, of the battle lines, the positions' (Contlm MRS. NACK'S STATEMENT. Declare* She Feel* Better Since Conlettion —Looking Up Her Record. New York, Nov. 14.—Mitt. Augusta Nack issued a statement to -the public, Saturday,. It was written by her in German, and was intended to show that she had really been converted, and had not appeared as a witness against Martin Thorn in order to save her own life. She says she hopes for no lenien cy and she is ready to die. Tills places her case in a very serious IHtsition. It has been assumend that her lawyer. K. M. Friend, had come to some understanding with District At torney Youngs of Queens county, and that she would lie permitted to plead "'guilty'' to some degree of crime less than murder in the first degree. When she was examined, Wednesday, she positively replied to the question put by Surrogate Weller, that her con fession was purely voluntary, and that no promises of any kind had been made by th»- district attorney. If this be true she may be tried for murder in the first degree, as she is legally guilty of the crime, accepting her own version as accurate. If, as she Fays, she did not kill Gul densuppe herself, she was as guilty as Thorn, whom she assisted in ail the preliminary arrangements, bringing not only the victim, but the material for getting rid of his liody, knowing that he was to lie hacked to pieces. Mr. Friend says lie permitted her to confess, knowing it would be for her ben efit. as the case of the prosecution was far stronger than i'h- public imagined. Mr. Youngs will say nothing on the sub ject. except that he will dispose of the woman's case after Thom's trial is out of the way. Mrs. Nack's statement is filled with evi dences of a religious sentiment. Thorn has thus far refusal the- consolation of the church, and thinks of little except his own troubles, bis hatred for the woman he once loved, ills love for his dog and playing cards with his cellmate. William F. Howe. Thorn's counsel, has been making a thorough investigation of Mrs. Nack’s ree-eird. He professes to lie ill a itosition to prove that many portions of her story are untrue. He says she is a cunning criminal. In re ference to her confession, he remarked: "Just consider what this woman has done. She is a most awful spider criminal by her own words. She. a married woman, loved both Gualensupi*- and Thorn. She cannot have both. She plans Guldensuppe’s death, takes her own money to hire the house in which to carry out her murder ous plans, and lures Guldensuppe to that house-: she kills him. yes. kills him. She says Thom killeel him. We say sne did it. Thom was not the assassin, but her tool. At the last moment she swears Thom's life away to save her own. We shall show this desperate criminal in her true colors. Mrs. Nack was taken from t'he Queer® county jail. today, and for the first time since she was removed to Long Island City from the Tombs, left the courthouse buildings. She went to corroborate a part of her confession, and. tomorrow, t'he au thorities hope to be able to locate the saw with which it is claimed Thorn dismem bered the body of Guldensuppe. T'he party drove to a point between Flushing and College Point, known as College Hill. In her confession. Mrs. Xack had indicated that was the locality in which the saw was buried. hen this spot was located as nearly as possible, the three re-entered the coach and it was driven back to Long Island City. Xo effort was made, today, to recover the saw. but digging will be commenced, tomorrow. Magnus Larsc-n of the jury, which, last Monday, started to try the case, is resting easily at the Garden City hotel. THE FIRE IS SPREADING The Him at Aspen, Col, In Great Danner oy some one who had loosened the bolts on the cylinder head of the engine for the ap parent purpose of wrecking the mill, was arraigned in the district court. Monday. The charge against hitn was that of breaking and entering. He pleaded not guilty and was held under $4000. The general committee on missions of the Methodist church at its session at Philadelphia, Monday, proceeded with the apportionment for domestic missionary appropriations for the var ous Indian missions were made as fol lows: Michigan, $300; North Montana, $1200; northern Minnesota, $400; north ern New York,$513; Oregon,$672: Puget Sound, $350: Wisconsin, $384.

Hough ton- of the Bangor Aroostook, has com piled, a record of tihe game killed on that road during the m-omh of October for the years 1894. 1895. 1899 and 1897. The total number of deer, moose and caribou shipped for the first month of the hunting season in these years was 3403 deer, 211 moose and 124 caribou. The shipment for each month was as follows: 1894, 479 deer. I 24 moose, 10 caribou; 1893. (569 deer, 531 moose. 3i caribou: 1896, 1029 deer, 59 moose, 57 caribou: 1897. 1246 deer, 55 moose and 20 caribou. The shipments of moose for Oe- I tober of 1897 are from Oct. 15 to Oct. 31 only. This record far exceeds that of any other -hunting region in the Uhlted States ami tt diMLih AT WASHINGTON. The Behring Sea Conference Will Be Continued, Today. Believed that an Amicable Arrange ment Will Be Reached. The Reciprocity With Canado-The Preiidont’a Caller*—Other Matters. Washington. Nov. 15.—The British, Canadian and American delegates to the Behring sea meeting has confident ly expected to bring thir labors to a close, today, but after two arduous sessions lasting until 5.30 this evening, the experts had not been able to recon cile all their differences. It was deter mined therefore to continue the meet ing. tomorrow. Cp to the time of closing, today, the experts had made good progress, reach ing an agreement on all but three or four reserved propositions. These It is expected can be agreed upon, during the morning session tomorrow, so that the expert report can be signed and the meeting concluded so far as the ex perts are concerned. This will make available all the data necessary for considering the vital diplomatic ques tion of stopping pelagic sealing. The intention is that General Foster, Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Sir Louis Davies will meet, tomorrow afternoon, to go over the resolutions reported'by the experts and if possible agree upon Mbasis of settlement. The outcome of tnis diplomatic meeting continues to be much in doubt. It was intimated, tonight, that the Canadians might make a counter pro position, not going as far as the American representatives desire in the way of limiting pelagic sealing, but yet offering a possible ground for amicable adjustment. Kqually reliable sources stated that if the issue assumed the form of pelagic sealing or no pelagic sealing as now seemed likely, it would be extremely difficult to reconcile the differences. In view of the continuance of the meeting Sir Wilfrid and Sir Louis will not leave, until tomorrow night or Wednesday. Senator Fairbanks of Indiana, and Senator Elkins of- West Virginia, saw the President, today, upon fMttero pertaining primarily to appointments in their states but also dtsciused with Mr. McKinley the probable policy of the coming Congress. Both Senators Elkins and Fair banks agree with the President in the matter of pacific measures regarding Cuba and Spain. President McKinley is quite anxious to know what pros pects there are for currency legislation and asks different senators who call for their opinion. Senator Harris of Kansas, who took a prominent part in the last session of Congrtss against the arrangements for the sale of the Union Pacific Railroad, called upon the President regarding the sale of the Kansas Pacific Rail road. He believed the Texas Pacific like the Union Pacific would bring the full amount of the government claim and though as to the Central Pacific there might be some difficulty yet he inclined to the opinion that the govern ment wbuid have its debts on this rail road paid in full. hile pressure is still being brought to bear on the President for appoint* ment. he is giving little time to such matters and prefers to work on his message. It is probable that the Presi dent will make no recommendation in his message in regard to general arbi tration. The fact that he made his views clear on that subject in his inaugural address and that no arbitra tion treaty will be pending when the annual message is sent makes it un necessary to say anything further at this time. Secretary Alger has decided to refer to the judge advocate general of the army the record of the court of in quiry in the case of Captain Carter, corps of engineers, who is alleged to have been guilty of irregularities in the Savannah harbor improvement works. In answer to an inquiry, today, from New York, the secretary of the treas ury sent the following telegram: Re fined beet sugar produced wholly in Denmark will be subject to an addi tional duty of not less than .135 of 1 per cent, per pound. Commissioner General Powderiy of the immigration bureau received a tel egram from Special Inspector Baldwin at Memphis, Tenn., that he had ar rested 28 alien stave cutters illegally brought into this country under con tract and would go to Mississippi, to night, to arrest the remaining 22. It la stated at the immigration bureau that 50 Austrian immigrants arrived ill Baltimore on the North German steam, er Rolando, Sept. 9, and were taken to Mississippi to work in the stave camps. When the party arrived in Baltimore they were suspected of being under contract, but the evidence submitted was deemed insufficient to warrant their detention. Subsequently, however. Commission er General Powderiy sent special agents into the camps, who secured sufficient testimony to Justify their ar rest and a warrant for the whole party was signed by Secretary Gage and placed in the hands of Inspector Bald win, last Friday. As soon as all are secured they will be deported at the expense of the steamship company bringing them over. Up to tWs time, the evidence against. the contracting firm who brought the Austrians Into this country is not deemed sufficient to justify criminal proceedings but the officials are said to be still at work on this feature of the case. There is no truth in the statement recently published to the effect that the secretary t# the President, John

A NOTCH HIGHER. Augusta Passes Lewiston in the Race for the Pennant. The Deed Done in a Fine Game, Au gusta Winning, 3 to 2. Bath Ties the Champion*. Taking the Game Irom Them, 7 to 3. O and behold! Col. Cody’s covv-puneh ers and bareback riders from the bail iwick of spindles, pretty girls and sport, are drinking of the bitter dregs cf the defeat cup! They came to the Capital city with determination, fixed and sure, of defeating the Legislators in a game so easy, so very easy. Bui we didn't "do up” those people, and don’t you forget that same, without the greatest alacrity, etc., for they are finishers from the hack woods of the Klondike Eldorado as far as the deer reserves of our own Pine Tree State. Augusta won, 2 to 2. 'Twas tropical polo right from the very start, from the time that Col. Long blew his whistle at the commencement of the first period until the tumultuous plaudits of the multitude at the close, announced that Capt. Perry and his band had come out i f the conflict victorious and our oppor tunities of winning that bunting in the race becomes more favorable. It was even sport all the way through, hut the home team had,just a shade the best of that “evenness" and showed that for a team of speedy dis ciples of the nolo stick and rajjber sphere, they were in the game in much evidence. The game commenced at 8.30 o’clock and was preceded by an amateur con test in the City League race. All the players were given the “glad hand” and as Furbush skated on with a non chalant air. derisive shouts of "beef" were accorded that gentleman, by the congregation of "fans” that were on the stage, on the bleachers and on the reserved seats. In the first period the home people 'were on the anxious seat. “Davy” Tarrant won two rushes and caged one ball, WaKor., the speedy skater, corral ling the other onp before the mighty Murphy could collect hi3 wits and place his feet. In the next twb periods it was differ ent, very different, for Turner and Schofield produced the latent ability that they possess and succeeded in scoring three goals and the crowd cheered on. Tarrant made all the rushes but one with ease, while Mur phy had the most goal3 to his credit. To sum the game up In a nutshell, it was a nip and tuck contest as far as the people on the floor were concerned, but the phenomenal work of Murphy saved the home team from de feat. Malone played well at half back, and the other members of the team have shown a wonderful improvement in their playing since Thursday night, and ought to make Donnell's Bath con tingent play hot polo, tonight. For Lewiston, Tarrant showed that be is as good as any in the Maine League, while Furbush made drives that would have landed in the propet receptacle had not the Augusta man been there to intercept them. Fur bush’s work at defence was magnifi cent. The summary: AUGUSTA. LKWISTON Schofield lr. Tarrant Turner 2r. Walton perry c. Fitzga raid Malone h.b. Furbush Murpity g. White Goal.

He w(U officiate at Bath, tonight, in the Augusta-Bath game. The Augusta players were slow in hitting for the cage at certain periods, but we'll now forgive them for it.

Polo Notes Halli Times: The action of Manager Burnham in allowing Allen to play polo on the Portland team should receive the attention of the officials of the Maine Lc ague. Bath Enterprise: Front street clerks are forming a ih>1o team and. there's a possibility of a local league to be played in connection with the games of the State League. Rockland Courier-Gazette: Just as soon as the players find that the fines imposed are not merely blufTs, there will be less fouling. The people like to see hotly con tested games, but they want polo and not a pugilistic encounter. Rockland Star: Phil Jason received a telegram from the management of the Lewiston polo club, Saturday, stating that he was wanted to join the Lewiston team. Phil is a good player and put up several fine games for the Champions last year. He will probably accept the offer. Rockland Courier-Gazette: Chris Toole of Bangor, is going to take his chances and wait. He has concluded not to run an independent polo team, just at present, but will wait until the new year, when he expects he will be admitted to the Maine League under the new schedule. We thought Chris was working a bluff. Rockland Star. Nov. 15: There was con siderable talk among the polo cranks, Saturday night, about the dlcesion regard ing the last foul called on Maynard. Ref eree May. who has thus far officiated in an able manner, had a long talk, last night, with President Richards by tele phone-. Mr. May asked Mr. Richards to accept bis resignation, but the latter de clined. Mr. Richards watched the game and was perfectly satisfied, and said that he would not entertain such a move for a moment. “Cheer up. Neel, you're all right.” Thomaston Herald: The polo season has opened, and while the interest is high in Rockland, it is not so much so in this place, ar.d the game will not. in all prob ability, receive the patronage from this town that it did last year. The seating in the Rockland rink has been changed, but it is for the worse instead of the bet ter. Although a person holds a check for a seat, it is almost Impossible to get it unless he is there when the doors open. There Is only room for one row of per sons tack of the seats, and when they are scantling there one can readily see how hard it would, be to reach any seat part way down the rink. Boston Globe: Keough is a favorite referee, but he gets his calldov.ns. Keough does not mind those things and wants it understood that he only draws the line on bricks. With Dickie, Pierce, Leydon and Capt. Whit ing to pass the ball to Bone for goal shots, enthusiastic Pawtucket cranks can still see championship honois awaiting the tigers. Menard is with Providence again, and with Cun nighatn made things lively for John Smith at New Bedford. Saturday. Griffin is playing in fine f inn for Salem. His driving for goal is more effective than ever before, and his floor work is surprising Manager Carroll. Canavan says that his work at rushing lias done more to get him in good, hard condition than a whole sea son of center playing last year. Capt. Doe is putting forth all his ef forts to get Spencer back, as Roberts needs a fast partner to keep up the nace he sets. Boston Globe: The Maine League has played its first week's schedule games, and the reports from there show that the patronage is much larger than last year, which was very good, all things consideied. Iiockland holds the lead, but Gardiner is a close second, and the other teams put up some games that give evidence of making many changes in the positions before the final games are played. Another league, the Connecticut, will open its season Wednesday. It has been several years since polo was played in that state, but in the palmy days of the old league that state was represented by teams which made things interesting for the Massachusetts clubs. The Connecticut league has not signified its intention of coming into the agreement with the National league, which would give it protection as regards players jumping contracts, but the directors ipay change later, when they realize their disadvantage. Portland. Advertiser: The polo season is fairly opened and Inasmuch as t'he game furnishes amusement to 1000 peo ple, more or less, about twice a week dur ing the winter months, a few words of comment upon it may not be out of place. As in- base ball or foot ball we are all glad to see the local team show superiority over visiting clubs, and when we are beaten there is a genera! feeling of dis satisfaction. Of late years Portland has not been fortunate in any kind of sport involving contests with other cities. This makes our people restive, for as Portland is the largest city in the State, there is a fettling that her representatives ought to be smarter than their rivals Now in polo it is evident that we have not at present the strongest team in the league. The Rockland's were last year's cham T i ii 11 plons, ami they have practically the same team this year. We cannot hope l» lieat them In the race unless our leant can work together with as much precision us tWy do. Constant changes in any team will be made at the sacrifice at team work. If possible, therefore, the strong est players to l>e had should be put in at once and be allowed to stay long enough to give them a chance to get used to each other's methods. Team work should be Insisted upon at all times and hard hit ting from one end of the floor to the other should be sloppe d. When we have once got a good team, don't be discour aged If they lose, so long as they play the right kind, of game and exert them selves to the utmost. The Augusta-Rockland Game. Those patriotic, well-posted1 and liberal minded people who have been very assidu ously circulating the report that Rockland “sold" Saturday night's game to Augusta, are cordially invited to rend the Rockland Star’s report and see where the "sell" comes in: "Well, we have fallen at last. Tile Idols of the polo arena have met their Water loo, and tile braves from the city built upon seven hilts succeeded in accomplish-: big a feat. Saturday evening, the enjoy ment of which must be keen Indeed, ow ing to the fact that It has so seldom been done since that memorable time when the brave and mighty •O'Connor introduce! the curved stick and the little red ball to the sporting element of our city, last 'Thanksgiving. "But they did it. and even the beautiful playing of Campbell and the "mad bull and re,! rag" dashes of Maynard could not save the game, although the most sanguine supporters of the Augustas must admit that it cost tin in a mighty off >rt. aidon by kindness of Maynard In making fouls at just the right time—for Augusta. "The first ptrlod started in with a rush and thr.it the Augustas had some new ma terial on rollers was evident. The first period was a sr.'appy one. but the honors belonged to Augusta, and when The gong hod sounded and the hum of tile boxwood had died away. It was found that the Statesmen turn caged two, while the Champions' score remained a goose gg. The multitude groaned and the band played, amt then the battle raged once more. The Champions started with a rush in the second and in a few minutes the ball was caged by Campbell and Things looked brighter. The next belli was placed in the ne tting by Murphy in a trifle over six minutes and it certainly looked as though Rockland's percentage would still remain at the top notch. "But before the period was over. the Augustas proved conclusively that they were in the game yet by caging another ball, and the score stood .'1 to 2 in their favor. When the last period opened, the Champions quickly made a goal, followed it up by another, -and the rafters rung for they were In the lead and unless live meji in drab were stricken with paralysis, victory seemed certain. But the score is not always to the swiftest. Right here was when Maynard got in his work and without the least provocation deliberately made a foul and a goal was lost. Murphy of the Augustas, had an attack «f the convulsions and It is doubtful if he has got his mouth closed yet. He was pleased. So were the other men from the Capital, and with a mad rush, they soon caged another bull. This gave Them the lead again, with only a few minutes left to play In this short time the Champions did themselves proud, but it was no use. the gong sounded, it was all over and the band played once more, but this time it was a funeral dirge. "Thus closed1 one of the must exciting games- of the .season, and the Augusta team deserves great credit for its work. Hail it not been for Campbell, who took every rush, and O'Malley, who played finely as usual, the score would have been larger against us. as the se men were ele cl'dcdOy the- stars of the home team." FIRE AT BIDDEFORO. Col Kendall Loses a Building-A General Conflagration Narrowly Escaped. Biddeford, Me., Nov. 14. —Early this morning, a large woode* building at the foot of Summer and Birch streets was totally destroyed by tire, involving a loss of $5000,.which was partially cov ered by insurance. The fire caught in the grocery store of Mott Staples and spread rapidly throughout the entire structure despite the efforts of the fire department. Dwelling houses in the immediate vicinity caught fire several times and it was feared that a general conflagration would result. The build ing was owned by Col. L. H. Kendall, who estimates his loss at $”000: in sured. The losses of occupants is as follows: Mott Staples, grocery. $700, in sured: Harry Smith, barber. $100. no insurance: Campbell Brcs.. carriage manufacturers, $2000, partially insures!; H. C.

Portland, Me., Nov. 14.—A special to the Press frefm Kennebunk. says: Burglars paid their respects to Kenne bunk, last niglrt. YV. B. Bartlett's gen eral store was entered, the safe blown open and the thieves got away with about $40. The discovery was not made till this morning, when th ein terior of the store was found to be in a state of eoufusion. Bocal officers drove in various directions on a hunt for the burglars. Parties living be tween here and Biddeford have seen two men travelling in the direction of Biddeford, this morning. City Marshal Harmon of Biddeford was notified and some of his officers Joined in the quest but without avail. PREPARING FOR EMERGENCIES. Uneasiness In the Balkans The Sultan Mass ing Troops on Bulgarian Frond r. London, Nov. 15.—The usually well informed Vienna correspondent of the Times says: “The final treaty of peace between Turkey and Greece has not yet been signed, and the negotiations of the Powers with respect to autonomy for Crete have hardly emerged from the in itial stage when already there are dis quieting symptoms in the Haitians. The relations between Bulgaria and the Porte are strained. The Sultan 'Is preparing for all eventualities and 100,000 Turkish sol diers are cheloned on the Bulgarian fron tier, armtd with Mausers and amply pro vided with horses and guns. Servia, of course, would be implicated1 in any com plications in connection with Macedonia, while recent accounts from Albania re port signs of growing unrest. On the whole, the outlook In the East Is In no wise reassuring. More than thirty styles of Underwear to select from including splendid fleece lined at 50 and 75c. E. E. DAVIS CO.; AT ORCHARD KNOB. (Continued from pace 1.) and manoeuvercs of the troops engaged here than any other living man. We came here with hearts full of thanks to General J. S. Fullerton, whose ears, today, are silent in death. From the organization of the commis sioners of this National Military Park until his tragic death, last summer, he was Its chairman. He was the ir"ar nation of enthusiasm. He n jver seemed to kntnv or consider an obsta cle. In battle this enthusiasm and determination marked him and spe cially as he hurried the legions of Gor don Granger to the salvation of Thomas’ right when struck by that immense corps of Longstrcet on Snodgrass Hill. Governor Hastings, on the part of our committee and the commission. I tender and turn over to you these monuments. May they stand here beautiful and grand through all coming generations, unhurt by the hand of man and unmarred by the tooth of time.

John Tweedle, chief eierk of the war depart men: said: Governor Hastings. The Commission ers of Pennsylvania and Comrade's: The secretary of war takes the great est interest in everything pertaining to the late war. and he regrets exceeding ly that he cannot be here today. Pub lic duty demands his presence else where. He has selected me to repre sent him on this occasion, not because I am near him in an official capacity, but because I was a private soldier in a Pennsylvania regiment which parti cipateu in these battles. inoi tor an> thing 1 did. not for anything merito rious in my record, but that I might stand here today as the representative of the men in the ranks, the nun who toiled and suffered and died in obscur ity, the men who made success possi ble. In order then that they may have recognition in these official ceremonies, the Chief Executive of the nation, and the secretary of war, both gallant sol diers, have selected one of their num ber to perform this honorable service. It therefore becomes my duty to ac cept for and in behalf of the nation the monuments erected by the state of Pennsylvania to commemorate the deeds of her heroic sons upon these battlefields, and which you. sir. as the chief executive of the state, have just tendered to the United States of America. And in further performance of my duty, and in accordance with the instructions of the secretary of war, I now transfer them to the custody of thecommissioners of theChickamauga Cliattanooga National Military Park, composed of comrades who arc the scars of the conflict, knowing full well that they will be cared for as a price less heritage—a heritage of heroiedccds performed that a “Government of the people, by the people, and for the peo ple might not perish from the earth.” The crest of the wave of the conflict passed beyond the borders of the state of Pennsylvania, it broke and fell at Gettysburg, it left a record of heroism unequalled in the annals of war. Tennyson has immortalized the charge of the Light Brigade history thrills us with the stories of Waterloo and Aus tcrlitz. of Marengo, Gravelotte and Se dan. vivid pictures of gallantry in bat th s. The Light Brigade lost 36.7 per cent, at Balaklava. and the 3rd West phalian lost 49.4 per cent, at Mars-Ia Tour. the highest record of casualties in authentic history, until our late war. At Gettysburg the 141st Pennsylvania lost 75.7 per cent., the 1st Minnesota lost 82.0 per cent, and on the Confeder ate side the 26th North Carolina lost 71.7 per cent., not including the miss ing in ai'tion. In Fox's book “Regi mental losses of the Civil War” it is stated that in the battle of the flrst day Captain Tuttle's company of this regiment went into action with three officers and 84 men,—all of the officers and 83 of the men were killed or wounded. In the presence of almost certain death American soldiers stood and fought without flinching. When cun their glory fade? Oh, the wild charge they made— All the world wondered." And what of Chiekamauga? In 1890 the committee on military affairs of the House of Representatives, com posed of gallant soldiers who had seen service in the Union and Confederate armies, reported to the House a bill to establish a National Military park, at the battlefield of Chiekamauga. In that report, after full and careful consideration, the committee said: "The figures show Chiekamauga to rank, for the members engaged and the time of their fighting, among the most rioted battles of the modern world. The average losses on each side for the troops which fought through the two days, were fully 33 per cent., while tor many portions of each line the losses reached 50 per cent.', and for some even 75 per cent. Thiere is prob ably no other field in the world which presents more formidable natural ob stacles to great military operations than the slopes of Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge, while there is no field that surpasses Chiekamauga In the deadliness and persistence of the fighting.” There is a calm statement of an his toric fact back of which are the smoke and roar of conflict, the shrieks of the wounded, the groans of the dying, the agony in far-off homes, wives widowed, children fatherless, fathers and moth ers bereft of sons in the twinkling of an eye, and myriads maimed for life—the fruit and flower of the nation, its young manhood handicapped in the race for existence, but with the pre cious memory of duty well done at the cannon’s mouth, and alt the flaming throats of the guns. It does not come to each generation to be privileged to offer life that a nation may live. In our time the op portunity came and was accepted. Do any doubt that history will repeat It self if the opportunity is again pre sented? The young men of the na tion are as patriotic, as eager as the men of '61, their hearts beat as true, and they enthuse as readily. Men grow languid in peaceful pursuits, but the legarthy disappears as the mist before the rising sun when the nation calls for help. The lessons of the war have been thoroughly taught in all our broad land. Memorial battlefields are an ob ject-lesson and the monuments tell th story. Huilt of bronze and enduring granite they speak to the ages, to the millions of the future they convey a message of eonll e:, f sacrifice, of hero ism and patriotism. When individual deeds shall have been forgotten these monuments will bear witness to hu manity of the sacrifice of self for the benefit of the State. Hut to the youth of the present generation they speak of the heroism of their fathers. Let but th impression be vivid enough and the future is secure: and can any thing be more impressive or more vivid than that which is taught by these monumental battlefield*. Th- sicri fices which purified and strengthened the republic in- the days of 1861-65. are here perpetuated, and these silent memorial* appeal to this generation w ith irresistible power. The story may be t Id diff rently—it is told differently, but the great facts remain, the conflict was waged. men of heroic mould went forth to meet death face to face in the enthusiasm of their young manhood, the union of states survived, and the (lag of ih-- country, respected and tee loved throughout the land, waves over a brave, happy and reunited people. Decoration days come and go. the graves of our heroes are kept green, the Hug floats over the school house children absorb patriotism at the sight of each gray-haired veteran with his army button, and come weal or woe the nati >n's honor is secure. Sentiment endures in human hearts, it moves the world. Love of country animates the people, the sun of our prosperity not yet at meridian, lights the way to a future glorious with promise. Let us then who have borne the bur den and -heat of the day not lay down our arms fearful of the morrow, but let us rather relinquish them to the willing hands ready to receive their, und as the r.sing dawn if this n rw hu manity illumines the land may we thank ihe Almighty Ituler r.f the 1'ni verse that he has vouchsafed to our beloved country the blessings f a peo ple full of huj>e, resolute and iger to emulate the deeds of the fathers when necessity rquires. 1 Rt“ addr.ss by General Henry Boyn ton, president of the ChickAmauga and Chattanooga National Park Associa tion, was as follows: Mr. President and Comrades: That this national park has been es tablished Is largely due to the valor of the sons of Pennsylvania on these and many other fields, nr.d to the patriotism with which these empire states of Ten nessee and Georgia, with their sister se ceding states, have accepted the decree of a great case briliaiv;!;, tied by both con testants in that high court of last re sort, where tile sword decides. You surviving Pennsylvania veterans, who. in common with the soldiers of two armies, looked upward through the night of November 24. thirty-four years ago. saw that arch of gleaming lights. There, under the cliffs. at tile- highest point gained ir. the- battle, those (lashing guns we-re' from the line's of Pennsylvania's 29th and 14Ttli the keystone of that histor ic arch battle whose fame will endure see long as I-ookout stands on its tirm foun dations. But with the morning light there came even a prouder sight for you. and ale of us. With the' eariie'st rays of that beau tiful dawn, calm and peaceful as if death hael never stalkeel along the front erf bat tle. or the* smoke erf conflict obscured earthly vision, flouts! the flag of' the I'nion from the summit of the palisades, above the Keystone, above the' banners of all the states. And so it was everywhere, notion above svate. until the v.ar ended, and in its gnu! heats, not only had states been welded into a perpetual and indissoluble Umern. but into a nation which today presents the grandest example of concord and unity of purpose to be found on the plan et. Standing In this southland w« rejoice with all it.- thoughtful min over results which have hr.eight renewed and most vigorous life. ois. r.thrallment from old condition'--. dignity to labor, unexampled development, an I the spectacle of vast communities thoroughly American, with faces set with high purpose toward the working out of national destiny. But. my friends, while there is d ep and abiding meaning in the fact that Penn sylvania comes here to heiror the- military achievements e>f he r sons, and preserve their memory till the centuries shall nave crumb: J granite and wasted bronze, there is deeper ard more far-reaching meaning in tits’ fact that all the states of the South as well as the North, are engaged with eejual enthusiasm, under the s-ame national authority, in the same work. You have seen on the Held of I'hieka nr.auga the guns of every Confederate battery that fought tin re against llag re established by the national government to mark the points of their lighting, and teIC to the ages the military skill and courage with which they were served. You have seen the state monuments of Ter.'inVsee and Georgia, anil Missouri ris ing along their former Hives of battle. Y’ou have read the multitude of tablets, erected by a national commission, under the authority of Congress, which for each side alike commemorated a story of American valor, which Is a national glory and a national resource as well, since in thiit story may be clearly read the mili tary possibilities of a warlike future whose' fitful gleams are playing even now like summer lightning around our whole horizon. Have you ever read of anything like our park in history? Did any nation ever ex ist where its establishment would have been possible? In the development of the race, union between warring states has never been complete before. Rut in the furnace of our contest every trace of dross was consumed, and the forging of our bat.its was a more perfect union, and a stronger and a mightier one than the world lias seen. Wo are ail conscious of this, and wc glory in it. The world will learn it whenever, as a united nation, we are called' to righteous war. There is no element in all our work which glorifies the lost cause. Even those who upheld its tattered banners do not seek that. Rut every soldier who stood in the front against them till the Union triumphed and we became brothers again, knows that the magnificent military skill enduifanee, and valor which railed to sup port that cause, incited the North to mil itary effort and deeds which had never even floated in its dreams before. And so it came to pass that North and South, after a four-years' course In their schools of war, graduated this nation us a first class military power. Ar-.l now we all know that the history which stands re corded on the fields around this city, re peating on monuments and tablets as it does the story of the unexampled devel opment of American endeavor In battle, has carried this nation forward with striding step® far along the path of its great destiny. Our park first suggested that union l>y which the soldiers of the North mid thwe of the Booth came to g* ther on a famous buttle field to unite In an iipul nimmemoratlon of American valor. The whole nation responded, and has well learned the lesron which ouch union teaches. We now are coneious of our military prowesa. We remember the tremendous blows which each section struck on many fields when the nation stood divided. Ar.'i vt .crams of both armies will be for given If In all their mtirlngs over the fu ture the*- picture to themnelves an American army In battle array moving forward to accomplish Its purpose under a corr t.oii ting, with the common inspira tion of the veterans of fJrant and I.ee, Rose c rane and Bragg. of Thomas and I/ony.-tree t. of Wilson and Forrest and Wheelr.. rnl.es all present signs of fast growliiK Jealousy of Republican progress on (die port of foreign powers fall and fadi. there are veterans who will take part In it. and be rendered invincible by the stirring memories of those gn at mil itary ds whit h their fathers pi rforme 1 el her under the s.ura and stripes or the battle banner of the Southland.

The time honored custom of recognizing and giving thanks to Almighty God as the year draws to a close, for His mani fold mercies, was instituted in Plymouth Colony by the Puritans in the early set tlement of our country. The present year has brought to the people of Maine a fair degree of prosperity, and though the har vest has “been less bountiful than, usual, we have moved onward in liberty and peace. We have been signally preserved from great calamities and pestilence and have very much for which to be truly thankful. In grateful recognition of our Indebtedness to, and dependence upon thi> Giver of these blessings, and also con forming to the Proclamation of the Pres ident of the United States, I, Llewellyn Powers, Governor of the State of Maine, do hereby designate and set apart, with the advice and consent of the Council. THURSDAY, THE 25th OAY OF NOVEMBER, A. D 1897. as a day of Thanksgiving and Prayer. And I do earnestly request all the citizens of our State to refrain on that day from any unnecessary labor and with heart felt gratitude render thanks to God for His care and goodness to us as a people. And especially I would enjoin those who have abundance to give substantial evi dence of their thankfulness by remem bering, on this day, the poor and unfor tunate. Given at the Executive Chamber at Au gusta, this fifth day of November, in the year of our Lord eighteen hun dred and ninety-seven, and the Inde pendence of the United States of America the one hundred and twenty second. LLEWELLYN POWERS, BYRON BOYD, Secretary of State. The Cuban insurgents are again razing cane. Harvard talks as if she had really expected to -win. Look out for an explosion at the Hub; the mayorallty campaign is on and 50-eent gas is in sight. Mrs. Nack’s first, or rather her only husband, shakes his head when they tell him she has been converted and ex pects to die. The color line was e surmised. But we think it was then demonstrated very forcibly that not only is clean foot ball possible un der the most exciting conditions hut that the sentiment which brought that about is alive and must be kept alive. Moreover we ore not sure, judging from the various criticisms of the game, but the sport can be improved by the in troduction of requirements for more of skill and loss of brute strength. Brava Words at Chattaaoofa. There were brave words at Chatta nooga on Orchard Knob, Monday, when t'he monuments there erected to Penn sylvania heroes who fell there were turned over to the national govern ment. Better than all, these words were uttered by brave men renowned for brave deeds, many of which were done in that glorious amphitheatre of seven hard earned Union victories that finally gave to the Unionists possession of the geographical center of the Southern Confederacy and the gate way to the central South. Here for three months in 1863 nearly 200,000 men of the same country fought with a valor and sacrifice seldom equalled. In the charge of the famous Light Bri gade at Balaklava the per cent, of loss was only 36.7 and at bloody Chicka mauga, one of the seven great contests fought in the immediate vicinity of Chattancoga, and one of the deadliest in history, the average losses of the two great armies were fully 33 per cent, and in some portions of the line went as high as 71 per cent. Furthermore it is said on the most reliable authority that there probably is no field in the world which presents more formidable you dear so much about .nowadays an minute bodies utvisible to the unaided eye. They Boat in the air and we take them into our lungs. But they an harmless unless they hud a proper id g soil. They cannot live and grow in perfectly healthy throat and lungs. Scott's Emulsion may be aaso things for which they stand are models for succeeding generations to work from when the supreme test of loyalty, patriotism and eourage may come. May that time be far distant, and not, as one of the principal speakers of the occasion hinted, so near at hand that those who participated in the Civil War may l>e found side by side fighting for the country in which they formerly fought each other. Undoubtedly the blue and the gray would blend perfect ly in such a crisis and those who fought against the Union in the sixties could now he relied upon to fight as zealously for it. But the veterans of the Rebellion have done their share of fighting and it is not probable their warlike services will again be needed. The gobblers are going to town to be gobbled. Some say Waterville is wedded to th city building project. At last accounts, however, the long courtship was no; ended. Minnesota potatoes are coming to Maine. Now coals will be going to Newcastle. The Pittsfield Board of Trade is in i commendable flutter and met Monday evening to talk over the new lailrcad, aisii the proposition for a new dam and electric light plant. The committee of the Bucksport Seminary has gone to the aid of the institution's boarding house byabolish ing private clubs and reducing the price of board at the boarding house from $2.75 to $2.25 per week. The in stitution needs the boarding house but under the old conditions the students were not making it self supporting. A West Waldoboro man of Xfi, con fined to the house with a broken leg, is a living example of the contented spirit his neighbors say. As a mason he has laid the foundation of 70 houses in that town and also the sure founda tions of a worthy old age. The Hallowell Register will issue special editions in celebration of Thanksgiving, Christmas and of 20 years’ work in Hallowell. all worthy subjects for celebration, and we doubt rot will be worthily celebrated. Two pupils In a Monticello school, aged 13 and 15 years, started out to •shoot a deer before school a few morn ings since. They discovered the deer and both fired, and both killed the deer, one putting three buck shirt and the other a bullet through the vitals of the beast. They got their prize home and dressed and were at school in time for all their lessons. They didn't shoot a human being by mistake. It’s not the way of Aroostook lads. Great grown men with less 3ense and experi ence do that. Had one or two of those $5 notes spent on experts for examining the eity books been used for advertising the Bath shoe shop in shoe trade jour nals, an occupant for the factory by this time might have been found.— Bath Independent.—Generally speak ing, however, it is a good plan to occa sionally examine accounts, to rectify mistakes if nothing more. Now arises the cry that our coast scenery is being injured by the slaugh ter of spruce trees for the Christmas tree trade. It has been a paying though an exhausting crop. 'Matinicus hoodlums who have been disturbing people in the south end of the town are warned that they are in iting trouble. It’s a warning for hoodlums everywhere.

Some weeks ago Mrs. Arnes of Sebec village, accidentally swallowed two teeth and recently coughed up the teeth, says the Eastern Gazette. Now ulcers are forming on her liver and lungs. The doctor has little hope ot saving her life. Two ladies called at a Phillips grocery store a few days ago and see ing some long sticks of black licorice they decided that they had found just what they wanted. “shoestrings." They bought the "shoestrings" and went home happy.

He found that the craft has been taken to East Mavhiaa on Sept. 9, and there sold to James Chase, from whom the rascal afterward tried to steal it.

This induces thinness, weakness, loss of flesh and fat. loss of vitality, wasting away. Loss of flesh and vitality means con stant liability to sickness. Wasting away is consumption. If getting thin is what ails you. there Is onty one thing to to do—get fat. The only way to do it Is to take something which will help your stomach and stimulate It to do its work. If you are tired out you do not like to move vour legs or arms, if your stom ach is tired it does not like to digest; it cannot do its work. To eat. or even to eat with relish does n.>t necessarily mean that one is being noivished. Strength, vitality and flesh are the true indications. Gett.r.g thin is a sign that you need the Shaker Digestive Cordial. You would not he getting thin if you could digest your food. The Shaker Digestive Cordial not only contains artificially digested food, but it will digest other foods In the stomach. A single 10 cent bottle will show wheth er or not it is going to meet the condi tions of your case, and if so, its continued use may be depended on to effect a cure. All druggists1 keep it in stock. It is related by an old settler of Port land who knew Idem.

Peary with a much older companion were on a gunning expedition; they sighted a flock of ducks in a pond; the time of year was’ late in the fall, the pond in question was encircled with lee. Peary's companion was anxious to try his mark manship on the birds but was deterred with the idea that In the event of any of them being brought low it would be impossible to reach them and bring them ashore, and rather than wantonly slaughter them Peary's companion was inclined' to let them escape him, but Peary, equal to the emergency and with an appetite for toothsome game, ex claimed: "You blaze,away at them and 1 will see that we will land1 tiny that are hit." Suiting the action to the word ills friend' did blaze away with the result that of the flock two were victims. Peary stripped off his clothes and plunging into the icy waters swam out and rescued them, bringing them ashore in triumph, a much chilled youngster, hut none the less- daring. Sot Sai* GX to S«.

A tire which bids fair to result in the closing down of every mine in the Aspen. Col., district, is raging in the Smuggler n ine.- Unsuccessful efforts were made to place bulkhead's, and 50 men came near losing their lives by suffocation The stories of slaughter y that the old soldier could tel V his little son are so aw I ful that they tvoulc make a sensitive chile weep with horror ana pity. But all the stone' ior war on sea anc land shrink intc insignificance be fore the dreadful massacre of men and women, for which that relent less enemy of life, consumption, is each year respon sible. .i aciemisis state tliat one-fourth of the adult men and wo men in the civilized world have in their bodies the seeds of this prim destroyer.

There has never been but one medicine discovered that will prevent and cure this disease. It is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery.

Addison Porter, will be a candidate for the United States Senate at next year’s election In Connecticut. Secretary Porter declines to be interviewed on the subject hut is emphatieal in the assertion that under no Circumstances shall the use of his name be allowed in this connection. Secretary Porter was a strong candidate for the nomination for Governor In last year’s campaign in Connecticut. Many of his former ad herents have urged him to enter the race again but this, he says, he would not consent to do if it should involve a contest. The attitude of the administration toward the subject of reciprocity with Canada is probably disclosed in the following statement of a government official: "The task of the government would be made easier if the statesmen In Congress would be controlled by the Interest of the country at large. Some of them, unfortunately, confine their views to a particular concession to be obtained from a foreign country for a local interest and then desire our com pensatory concession to be made not by their own, but by some other local ity. They make of reciprocity a series nrt trade and yet it might be defeated by a combination of a feu minor local interests, not amounting to a million. Yet a reciprocity means mutual concession: without this noth ing can lie accomplished. We must give a market if we acquire one—not neces sarily a free market, but an accessible one. Take coal for an illustration. By giving access to the New England coast we might gain access (perhaps control) in the coal market of all the central Canada with mutual advantages by r ason of geographical and transport conditions. Would it be Aise for coal producers to antagonize these natural cities? It is the same with other arti cles of commerce where the long wat r transportation is balanced against short railway carriage. "in some things we can acquire an almost exclusive market, greatly in ci asing our xpor.s in exchange for a mark, t open only to the competition of the other party. So It is with some phases of the transportation of logs ami mine lumber against manufar turers of wood. Whenever we enlarge the market of our manufacturers, we Inevitalily enlarge the demand for our raw material from which they aie made, and this tends to increase the1 price paid to the original producer. The advantages of increased trade are widely distributed. "In tile major portion of commercial exchange this course i3 in the exc?p t'onal condition of producing a sur plus both of raw material and of the manufactured products. Our policy must take into view the situation al though increases our difficulty in nego tiations which shall satisfy every in terest. All that can be hoped1 for 13 a result which in the aggregate shall he dearly advantageous to the nation as a unit." All producers are also con sumers and they often gain.cn one side as much as they lose on the other.” Secretary Gage has requested the secre tary of the interior to instruct the Alas k m officials to gather about 500 head of reindeer from the government herds for tile use of the expedition for the relief of the icebound whalers in the Arctic. It is expected that the Bear, which is now at Seattle, will be ready to sail in about 10 '•ays, and within 20 days Thereafter it is expected that she will have reached some point on Norton's sound, where a large party will be engaged for the 600-miles overland trip to Point Barrow. The herd of reindeer, which will be killed for food, if necessary, will be driven overland, ar.d it is the expectation of Cap tain Shoemaker, chief of the revenue cut ter .«j twice. and Captain Hooper, who is in command of the Behring sea patrol lhet that the herd will reac t the impris oned whalers before the middle of Febru ary. The eight now icebound vessels have a combined complement of 263 men. On motion of Assistant Attorney Gen eral Anderson! the supreme court, today, decided to issue immediately its mandate in the Durrant murder case. No repre sentative of Durrar.t was found in court when the motion was made, and the court after a hurried consultation on the bench, announced, through Chief Justice Fuller, that the mandate should isvue forthwith. Mr. Anderson thinks this will settle the matter and hasten Durrant's execution. He said he would have made the motion sooner but for the necessity of giving notice to Durrant's counsel. THE BRAZILIAN REBELLION. Report ol Establishment ol Martial Law Is Believed at Washington. Washington, Nov. 15.—No official in formation has been received in con firmation of the report from Rio Janiero to the effect that President Moreas has issued a decree declaring martial law for a period of 30 days. Nevertheless the report is credited in diplomatic circles. If there were evi dence of the existence of a political conspiracy in connection with the re cent attempt on the life of the Presi dent of the Brazilian republic, a sus pension of civil rights would be neces sary to accomplish the arrest of any members of the House of Deputies or the Senate who might be implicated in the conspiracy. The constitution of Brazil gives the members of Congress immunity from arrest during the ses sions except by the direction of the branch of the Legislature of which they may ire members.
