Til'' Kpsiim fiiatl was congested by every vatii'ty nf vehicles. while the I trains h;nl difficulty in carrying the throngs blocking all tin stations. "Hi Prime and Prim ass nf Walts, the Puke and Duchess of York, -tho Puke and Duchess nf Connaught, tho Dukej| nf Cambridge and Prince t'hristian of Schleswig-Holstein. went tn Kpsont by special train. The Australian federa tion delegates travelled on the saint' i train. Kins Oscar iif Sweden and Nnr- way was expected tn accompany the 1 Prince of Wales but was indisposed. At Kosoin, while the usual crowds were on the hill and downs, the club and other stands and the enclosures showed the effects nf the war in a marked decrease in tin1 number of fashionable people present. Many hundreds of regular Derby visitors tire in South Africa. The day. therefore, was not only shorn of much of its mil itary interest. Inn the friends and rel atives of officers at the front refrained from attendance. ltii hard Crocker and his two sons were among the early arrivals. Win. K. Vanderbilt occupied a box where he chatted with Mr. Croker. James It. Keene was also among the Americans present. The loyal party arrived short ly after 1 o'clock. There was a great popular demonstration on their ar rival. After a eonple of preliminary races, the s' l-ond of whieh was won by Doris, with Sloan tip. the way was cleared for ill" Derby. There were II starters, as follows: Diamond Jubilee. II. Jones: Frontingnan. It. J nes: Ilona Hostt. L. Iteiff: Chevening, O..Madden: Disguise II. Toil Sloan; Most Kxeellent. K.

Chevening made most of the running to the straight, where Disguise II drew to the front but gave way to Diamond Jubilee, who. stalling off the challenge of Simondale. won by half a length 1 amidst deafening cheers. A length sep tirated second and third horses. Hona Itosa was fourth. I>i;mvond Jubilee’s Liin** was 2.4.. This equals IVrsimmon's lime, whieh is the p «ord of tin- Derby. In the paddock prior to the big ra* there was a brilliant gathering. J. K. Keene, Kaxhail Keene and a number of American friends watched Disguise II being saddled. Diamond Jubilee was ihe center of attraction and continual ly increased in popularity. The present generation will never ef face the scene when the Prince of Wales’ Persimmon captured the blue ribbon of the turf, hut today's demon stration when Persimmon’s »wn broth er gave the Prince of Wales a second Derby, was almost e(|ual.

More than ever before are this i npi inn's fashions remarkable for their diversity. All types of faces ami fig ures are catered to, and if a woman is not appropriately and becomingly gowned this season it is decidedly her own fault and cannot be laid at the door of Dame Fashion. Side by side wlih the new pleated or lucked skirt, which is being evolved ill such infinite variety, tile plain skirt with box pleated back, richly dec-orat ed with applications of cloth or satin, must be noted. Just now the invention of our dress makers is bound up in planning novel ideas for the elaborate strapping of cloth gowns, and in finding variety for the pleated and tucked skirts. One of the prettiest of th tucked skirts has a wide, plain front, the baek and sides being tucked half way down. The lucks, fitting close to the Isidy. merge beautifully inio the slight train or “sweep" ill the back. All fair women will rejoice that the real old-fashioned pale blue—a blue which has nothing of the turquoise coloring in its composition—is again in vogue. The most picturesque of pic ture hats arc- to he seen in tucked silk of this generally becoming color. There is something very simple and innocent in pale blue; and while it is in vogue it will be as well for admirers of the color often to wear it. We are prom ised blue tulle hats in the summer, gathered on wires. lilaek, which is always in vogue in this season, is to lie more fashionable than ever. There is really nothing prettier or more smart for a spring gown than black cloth trimmed with black silk applique, the jacket thickly covered with this ornamentation. With a gown of this kind it is easy to be suitably dressed, for an inexpensive -■■ilk waist makes the toilette nt for any ordinary wear, and with the intro duction of more ornamental ones it can be ad.i|ite.l to any occasion required.

If c,ne be still feeling a way toward making a parlor beautiful, it is best to avoid altogether the purchase of ‘'or naments." Bric-a-brac means some thing a little different, suggesting whims and fads, and the picking up of 'telly or interesting examples here and there. But what 1 mean by "orna ments" are. for instance, the two vasts me buys to place on the mantel. I>e ‘ause vases are supposed t>> be neces sary. If one lias two which are inter sting in themselves, well and good, but never two vases for the sake of vases. If the voung housekeeper ran lo nothing else, she can at least d" without.

The burden of them rests rightfully upon the shoulders of men in civil life, who had neither the soldier's ipiiek intuitions and hroail sym pathies nor his ability lo judge correctly the Southern character. The country has now had practically 35 years of citizen soldier rule. What is the record of that stewardship?

At the present time vve have more than Ta.itto postotiiees and the annual rev enue of the department is nearly one hundred million dollars. The assessed valuation of this country in |m!5 was about fifteen billion dollars.

We hav long-been feeding a large part of th t Old World; We are now prepared t> d B a large share of Its work. An Historical Parallel. The St. Louis Globe-Democrat finds in the cordial welcome given the Doer emissaries by the Democratic leaders, a parallel with the Genet folly perpe trated by the Democracy of over a cen tury ago, and predicts that they "ill be overwhelmed by the popular oppro brium now as they were then. Eveiy intelligent reader of the papers sees that the Democratic leaders are trying to use the Boer commissioners for political purposes. Democratic politi cians took them in charge on their ar rival in this country, and Democrats have been directing their tour since then as far as the visitors have per mitted. A Democrat, or an assistant Democrat, Allen of Nebraska, intro duced a resolution in his branch of Congress to give the commissioners the privileges of the floor of the Senate, and most of the Democrats in that chamber voted for the resolution, which was promptly laid upon the table by a decisive vote. A hundred years ago, the Democratic leaders went wild over Genet, the min ister of the French Republic to the United States, and encouraged that ill balanced person to insult the American g vernment and threaten to appeal from the American President. Wash ington, to the American people. This piece of idiocy brought Genet’s career to a sudden stop, for Washington told the French government to send for Genet, and that meddler was ordered to return home, but he chose to remain in the United States instead, gave up bis French citizenship and dropped into obscurity. Some of the Demo cratic mischief-makers are trying to involve the Boer agents in some of the indiscretions which wrecked Genet, tin' Boor commissioners have shown a regard for the political proprieties, and have not asked the American govern ment to violate any of its international obligations. There are indications, too. that they are beginning to grasp the mistake they have made in per mitting themselves to be coached, or to be under the suspicion of being coached, by Democratic politicians. President McKinley and Secretary Hay have made the position of the 1'nited States plain to the Boer visit ors. Both officials have treated the commissioners with due consideration, but they have let them know that the 1'nited States can neither intervene in their behalf nor offer mediation here after unless there is some evidence that it would be agreeable to the Brit ish government. As Secretary Hay told the commissioners, the United States has gone farther than any other government in behalf of the Boers, for it has made an offer of mediation, which England politely but promptly declined. Both the President and the secretary of state have treated the Boer envoys with as much consideration as was ac corded to Kossuth on his tour in this country half a century ago, and the South Africans will appreciate what has been done here for their cause. Many Americans are in sympathy ■with the Boers in their hopeless struggle, now almost at an end, but the United States government hits no right to express sym pathy with either side, and it will n >t do so. The Democrats' endeavor to employ the Boer agents and the Boer cause as a means to embarrass the American government will win the contempt of all friends of this country and will call down a crushing rebuke front the American people at the polls. Thi- Paris corres|H>ndent of tin- Phil adelphia Ledger, declares that the Kx pisitinn will not be fully completed before the end of June, rt is note worthy, too, that little is being report ed about exhibits worth going to Paris to see, though it is admitted that the effect of the whole mass of buildings and of the decorations and illumina tions is impressive—or, will lie, when all these tilings are in place and in good working order. Meantime, there is much disappointment among the Parisians at the slim attendance of foreigners, and especially of Ameri cans.

There are evidently lively times ahead in the Celestial empire. The mysterious and mighty organization of "Itoxers” is threatening the govern ment. anil foreign interests in China are anything hut safe. The landing of "0,000 troops by Russia will not sim plify the situation. Uncle Sam will protect his property and rights there, but doesn't propose to meddle in the quarrel. England is trembling at the thought of what Alfred Austin will do when Pretoria falls. As General Sherman remarked, "War is hell.” Henry LaMar of the Henry LaMar Comedy Co. wrote from Hiram, Me.

Women are strangely self-forgetful. The ex altation of the fact of motherhood blinds them often to its peril. Yet the husband who can bear no tithe of the mother’s pain or peril owes it to himself to see that his wife is in that condition of sound health which minimizes the risk both to mother and child. Many husbands have expressed their gratitude for Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription, be cause it makes the pain of mother hood practically nothing and reduces the risk to its lowest possible point.

The Journal's special Washington corres pondent is Ernest is trict of Columbia, the school system of the city of Washington. which lias provoked the complaints of parents who believed that their children were not receiving a good common school education, has been found wanting. The subject is of interest to educators who are prone to indulge in fads. It seems that parents protested that their children were not learning to spell, could neither speak nor write the Kng lisli language correctly, and were de fective in arithmetic. In the Wash ington public schools the attempt has been made to teach pupils how to spell, not in the old, slow, gradual, painstak ing way, but by plunging them into orthography as a boy might be thrown into the water to swim. It is also said that much the same method is adopted with regard to arithmetic, which is taught “by a sort of kindergarten scheme of playing with figures for four or five years.” Grammar has also been taught in a conversational way with text-books in the background. Mr. Moore was asked to put the sys tem to the test by putting the pupils 1 of the various high schools through their paces. The object was to deter mine what ground parents had for their complaints, which cover several years. No less than 1.100 pupils were examined in arithmetic, ohe English language, history ami civil government. The result seemed to be a triumph for the parents. In arithmetic the general average was 58. Only 6.0 per cent, of the pupils scored a mark of 00. and hut one out of the 1,100 was per fect. Fifty-three per cer.t. of those ex amined fell below 70. In history no one made 100, and 3.8 made 00 or over. The average mark was S3. The spell ing was shocking, and in writing grammar and punctuation the show-* ing is said to have been "pretty bad." In his report, Mr. Moore says: “The results of the examinations would seem t i prove that the instruction In the lower tirades of the district schools does not tit the average pupil to use the lCnglish language correctly and fluently, nor does it give him a good training in arithmetic. In so far as Knglish is concerned, the testimony given before the sub-committee went to show that written exercises were seldom resorted to; that such exercises were not corrected by the teachers and returned to the pupils to be rewritten. The spelling book has been discarded, and the pupil has nothing in its place. Moreover, there would seem to be no uniform tests for advancement from grade to grade, or fou entrance to the high school." President Monroe. Down at Charlottesville, Va., one hears funny stories about President James Monroe, who would seem to have been an eccentric and iraxi ib! personage, with a great reluctance to pay his debts. He had a line house and a fine farm called Montpelier, which is in sight of the trains on th Chesapeake and Ohio Itailroud, and a plain granite shaft, whieh marks his tomb, is visible from the highway. Mr. Monroe was not a “gentleman" as that term is applied in Virginia. His aneestry did not belong to the aristoe raey, and, although tie was an edu cated man. a lawyer of recognized abil ity, a legislator and a politician of rep utation, he never a is admitted to the chosen circle of the “F. F. V." One of the stories relates to a law yer who went over to Montpelier dur ing the latter years of Mr. Monroe's life to arrange for the settlement of a number of notes w hieh had drifted Into tin* hands of a Charlottesville bank. Most of them represented borrowed money, but several had been given for properly or merchandise purchased. The lawyer was a man of high social and professional standing, and Mr. Monroe appeared to be gi illy pleased upon the piazza. smoking anil chatting over the affairs of tho nation, ami. aft.-r a hospitable dinner, t""k a walk about the plats*. As they returned to tin mansion, the lawyer remarked in an ajsilogetital manner that he must not forg* t his duty in the abundance if his enjoyment, and handed Mr. Monroe a statement of several notes, the interest due. the dates of maturity an l so forth. He made a polite speech in explanation, and said that his client, the hank whieh held the palter, hoped that Mr. Monroe would be able to give some satisfaction. 'Til give you satisfaction tight here and now." exclaimed the indignant ex President. "You infernal scoundrel: You invade my home ami eat my •lin nets and drink my wine with a lot of due bills in y»ur pocket.” and. seizing a riding whip which hung from a rack in the hall, h- began to lay it over the shoulders and h* id of the astonished attorney.—Chicago K \jr.

The Graves of All Deceased Comrade: Strewn With Flowers. Eloquent Oration by E. M. Thompson. Esq. at City Hall, in Evening. Kwn though 30 years have passec since the men who took part in tin Memorial day exercises, yesterday were called to make their sacrilii es, the memories of that time were vividly re called and the men honored more that ever before, for the part they took in the struggle. Every thing contributed to the successful varying out of tip program. The weather was ideal From the time the first wreath wa placed on the grave of some comrade until the last out door exercise wa over there was not a cloud in the sky. The result of the faultless woathei was that the crowds were larger that they have been before for years. Then was not that simply crowding around to see the procession hut every on. wished to be near that they might rev. erently take part in the services. That it was Memorial day might be seen early in the morning. Then there was hardly a street in the city where from some house the Stars and Stripe? were not shown. At many of the pub lie buildings the Hags were at hall mast. The Hag at the State House which is seldom displayed except foi some unusual event was one of the first to ice out. and it was the same all over th city, so that in many sections rl was impossible to walk a block without passing half a dozen flags.

K. M. THOMPSON. The Orator of the Day. It was hut a few years a pro that the veterans themselves walked to the cemeteries where all took pait in strew, ins llowers on the graves of the com rades. That time is now passed, fot the march of years has commenced to tell on the men who gave up so much of their strength, years ago, and. yester day. detachments were sent to the dif ferent cemeteries where a small flag ami a Grand Army emblem marked Un resting place of some comrade who had taken his last march. This decoration was done under the charge of Senior Vice Commander A. A. Nichols. Junior Vice Commander W. H. Holmes, and Officer of the Day It. p. Swift and Past Commander U-wis Selbing. Each grave in each of the different cemeteries was strewn with flowers and when that part of the pro gram was completed the detachments returned to the Grand Army hall where a dinner was served under the direction of Lewis Selbing. At 1.30. the different companies as sembled at the Post hall, and again, at 2 o’clock, the line was formed on Water street in the following order: Platoon of Police. City Marshal Henry M. Breen. Commanding. George Doughty. Marshal of the Day'. George E. Gay. Chief of Staff. Aids—G. F. Gannett. X. T. Folsom Charles Weymouth. Harry Savage. Color Bearer. Italph W. Smith. Trumpeter.

The route of the procession was: T’t Water to Bridge street, up Bridge t State street, down State to Monument suuare. where the column massed am memorial ceremonies were observed: after which the Column reformed am marched down Orovo street to atei street, where the parade was dismissed Lone before the arrival of the pieces sion at Monument park a large crowi of people had collected on tihe park The parade came down State street am a space having been cleared on th' the Portland companies is very gratifying to Adjt. (len. Richards, who reviewed the parade, Monday. The companies were never in a better condition than they are at the present time and fur nish a good standard toward which Gen. Richards is successfully trying to bring the National Guard. It will now be but a comparatively short time before a bronze plate will attached to the side of the State House back "f the spot guarded by Emaliano, the cannon which was captured from the Spanish. The plate is to contain a short account of its capture and how it was brought to this city, the pi ite has already been ordered and will be placed in position in a short time. What little comment and discussion has been caused for fear that the State will lie obliged to pay back to those who held peddler's licenses has stepped. Those who were not acquainted with the law have been informed by tile best legal advisers that the State will not be obliged to refund the money. Th«* large number of people at uv State House, Tuesday, took occasion to ,comment on the great improvement that has been made in the appearance of the rotunda by laying the mosaic floor. It was seen then for the first 1 time by many, in its completed state. Some question has been raised about the manner in which the people of Millinocket are to be taxed. The peo ple cannot he taxed by the town for there is no town. It is generally be lieved that the place will he similar to Hastings, that little township on the New Hampshire border, which was mentioned a short time ago. There were very few departments, 1 yesterday, where any business was done. The day being a legal holiday, 1 the people in the departments had the f day to themselves. Many of the heads 1 of the departments put in the day fish ing and left with promises of what they would bring back. The Portland Trust Co., Monday. took up the mortgage on the Portland Saco Electric Road. The bond was issued refunding purposes, and it is understood that the company is now t controlled by the same officials wh« control the Portland Street Railway e Company.

Cony High found an easy thing in the Vickery Hill nine, yesterday morning, hut at one time it looked as though the latter team might win out on arc mnt of the carelessness of the Cony boys when they had the game well in hand. At all times when the High school boys wore playing ball the game was theirs, and never at any time did their opponents lead after the third inning. The day was ideal for ball playing and was Just the kind of weather when a horse might be expected to make fast time, and a ball player to be at his best. It was a little t o warm for the spectators, but with the exciting peri ods. at times, no one noticed the heat. The exciting part of the game came in the seventh inning. Then, with Re buses filled with men. it looked as though the printers would win out, but Williams steadied down and the men were retired with btrf two runs for the inning. The paper men were first at the bat. Hit.ramie was thrown out at tirst by Breen. Murphy was hit by a pitched ball and scored on the singles by O'Melia and Weym>uth. Wild throws on the liners by Kllis and Sprague scored Murphy and O'Melia. Bush struck out and Breen went out on :i pop fly to Trask at first. Craig was uit first for Cany, and after mak ing a hit, stole second and third anti scored on Kinsman's being thrown out it first by IleG ramie, after Beane had been thrown out at first by Breen. Bussell being thrown out at first by Kllis closed the inning with the paper boys one run ahead. In the second inning the men went tit in one. two. three order, but in the third Cony to ik a brace and began to pile up the runs, while the V. II. boys were again shut out. Cony he ld her lead but in the seventh it looked as though the tallies would turn. Weymouth and Ellis both came up for hits, and the third single by Sprague filled the bases. Weymouth began to work as far from third ns p ‘ssible. and the shortstop liner to Wil liams was handled and Weymouth went out at the plate, even though the bases were again filled. Breen tried to kill the hall and struck out, and Don aldson lifted the ball over the second base, where it was gobbled in by Gor don, and the last hope of winning was over. By this time Cony was well on to Breen's curves and landed a two bagger out into an unguarded spot in center field. Williams was thrown out at first, but Craig, always good for a base, made a hit. stole second and scored on a wild pitch, while Bear, struck out. After reaching first on a muffed ball by Sprague, Kinsman sear ed on Bussell's two-bagger, and Gor don Hied out to Weymouth. The lead thus gained could not be overcome by the challengers, and Cony High was victorious. While the game was far from being errorless, it was interesting and shows what a team the Cony High hoys have, for many of the men against whom they played have played semi-profes sional hall.

Yours very truly. BROTHERS, Miacllillists. may»eod3mo FIFIELD A lioston business man, with his wile, was over in F.urope. While in Paris his wife fell from a carriage and hurt her ankle dreadfully. She was laid up in bed for weeks, and the doctors couldn’t do a thing to relieve her. Then the lioston man had his wife carried to the railroad train and took her to a small vil lage on the side of the Alps mountains in Switzerland, thinking a change would do her good. Here, by accident, he came across an old Swiss peasant, who peddled a green colored oil in a bottle. The Boston man got1 some for bis wife, and two hours after rubbing it on her ankle she could stand up and walkl as good as anybody. Before that she wast utterly helpless. Then the Boston man hunted> up the old Swiss peasant again, and after a' whole lot of trouble he succeeded in buying a recipe for making the green oil. The green color, he found out, came from a vary rare herb that grew on one of the Alps mountains, and it was this same herb which had so quickly cured his wife’s sprained ankle. The oldt peasant told him he had been making thisi remedy for many years, but he had acvcr( given it a name. lie said n was a canaia cure for rheumatism, lumbago, neuralgia, sore throat, cold in the chest, weak backs, tired arms, shoulders and legs, stiff joints, sore I muscles, aching feet, and all bruises, sprains, pains and aches. The Boston man tried the green oil for all I these troubles, and found it was really amaz ing what wonderful cures the green oil ef fected. Then he made arrangements to have the Swiss herb and other ingredients brought across to America in ships, and when he got back to Boston he organized a company to make and sell the remedy. It had no name, so be called it Omega Oil. Itiis good for everything a liniment (Mght to be good for.

Memorial day was a delightful one In Waterville*. The weather was al most perfect. In the first of the after neon tt «ns hot, but during the latter part there was a Rood breeze. The ma jority of tile scores were closed at noon and the banks and post office observed holiday hours. There were no amuse ments but the exercises. and it seemed as if every one in the eity was out. Host of the shops and factories were Closed it least a pail of the day. that the employes might have a chance to enjoy the day as they saw fit. Kverything passed off as smoothly as e Olid la* desired, and there were no ac cidents during the day. It was a day of honor for the nation's dead heroes arid was strictly observed. .Much cred it is due J. I,. Merrick, the marshal of the day, for the excellent manner in which the large parade was handled. There was no confusion during the whole march, the wh de line being kepi ticti in hand. .\t St o'clock ill the forenoon W. S. Heath Post, escorted by a detail from Co H. and led by the Waterville Mili tary Hand, formed on I'ommin street and marched to Fort Hill cemetery in Winslow, where th- graves f comrades there were decorated with the usual ceremonies. A detail from Co. H. consisting of Lieutenant Mef.ellan. Sergeant Am Ini. Serg.ant Sterling. Sergeant Avery. Ser geant Crosby and Privates Karnes and Thomas, was sent to Oakland to decor te thf* Riavts of the soldiers who hist their lives in th»* Spanish-American w ar. Appropriate services were eon din ted by Sergeant Sterling. The com pany also sent a wreath to Vermont to dee .rate the grave of Corporal John Jilbort of flattery 1st Maine. At 2 o’clock in the afternoon the lim former! on the east side of Main street, the right jesting on Temple street. The line extended from Temple to Silver Street and it was a beautiful specta cle.

Tin* line f marc h was down Silver to Shir win. to Summer, to Pine drove cemetery. Tly the time the hand came into hearing the cemetery was ernwd **d with people. The crowd was e sti mated as high as a«kk) and it was prob ably pot'far from that number. Spec ial electrics brought large numbers and there were hundreds in teams.

Address of welcome by Mayor Phil brook. Address by Post Commander Silas Adams. Oration by A. S. Bangs of llangor. Music by tile hand. Benediction. The hall was crowded to its utmost capacity. When the exercises com menced there was not a seat to be had at any price and before long almost all of the standing room was taken also. The exercises were among the best of the day. The little tots received storms of applause as they tiled on and oft' the stage in perfect order and sung their little song in a charming manner. The evening was cool and delightful and the police of the city under the command of City Marshal Davis at tended to the wants of the audience in a thorough manner, keeping perfect order. The whole day. in fact, was ex cellently policed, there being no hint of any disturbance at any time. The oration by Mr. Bangs was an able effort. The attention of the great audience was held from the opening to the i lose and it was a fitting end ing to a delightful day. The day was one of the most delightful that Wa terville has had for a long time. The music was first class, the parade extra large and well ordered, till the xri ises well planned and carried out. the at tendance everywhere large and enthus iastic and the evening a splendid close for it all. The fine appearance of Co. H was again and again noted.. The Civil War Veterans behind them could well feel proud of their sin eessors in the defense of their country and feel that it will be safe when sueh soldiers are being trained. Bast but not least in the pa rade was the Cadets. The boys, many of them were tots, stood the long, hot match like veterans and obeyed orders with precision and promptness. Their only lack was uniforms and something ought to be done to procure them. The hoys are working hard in their drills I and with uniforms would hold their izati'Hi in the State. Wilson-Mace.

Waterville. The fruit stores and those having soda fountains did a land oftire busi ness, Wednesday afternoon. After the parade everybody wanted a soda anil some wanted two. Before the parade the ting dealers had their inning, for it seemed as if everyone on the street wanted a ilag of some size. t'olby Inis a game scheduled with Tufts College on the home field, for Friday. Tufts has a good team, this year, and Colby will make a big try for the game so it is sure to be interesting. The wild steer of China, which killed Mr. Jordan. Sunday, is dead.

The product* of a coal seam live f.-. t thick is »;.900 tons per acre, and taking this as an average thickness the area of «r»al annually worker! amounts nearly 33.009 acres. »i four times,th i area »»f th** county of 1. mi«»n. With I this rapid rat of consumption anxiety {is to the dm at: »n of ihe fields is well founded, lh ft -si r Hull J j estimates that the total ijuantity *»t I j coal within a depth of 4.090 feet still remaining? is si,ii\3.od«UWH) tons This I estimate is reassuring, although it is I not in accord with the less optimistic land divergent views oil the cjm-stiot: i-xpr* ss*»d by ProfVsso: Stanle y Jevons by the llight Honorable Leonard H Foiirtney. by Mr. It. Price- Williams land by Mr. T. Forster Br-v.n. All these estimates are of slight value, owing to the impossibility c.i p pie sying cither the rate of inerease in production and consumption, or tie limits at which mining? may be carried on with pi fit. Early in tin* last on- tury a shaft 100 feet in depth was an object of wonder, and a pinnee over a th»* history of the depths hitherto at- t tained clearly shows th remarkabl> rapid progress th.it has la-on made in this respect. At the present time th greatest depth at which Brent IPituin mining operations ai trri.-d on ha- j boon r« ached at the Pendleton y the Royal foal i onnnissioners in isfo. though till' tiled at the time, was well within the hounds of possibility. In view of the mhrwlous efficiency of modern wind ing engines, no considerations of a mechanical nature need limit the pro spective depths of shafts. By far tie most important obstacle t• very deep mining is the certain and propor tionate increase ..f temperature ac cording to depth. At the Parusehowitz borehole, in Silesia, the deepest in the world, recently put down by the Prus sian government to a depth of «.i>73 feet, this increase of temperature with depth has been found to me degree Fahrenheit for 62.1 feet. Taking this us a fair average a eoal seam at a depth of -l.IXiO feet would be. without the enoting action of an artificial ven tilating current. 64 degrees warmer than ground near the surface.—From the Nineteenth Century. A Pleasure an 1 a Duty. I consider it not only a pleasure hut a duty 1 owe to my neighbors to tell about the wonderful cure effected in my case by the timely use of Cham berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. I was taken very badly with llux and procured a bottle of this remedy. A few doses of it effected a permanent cure. I take pleasure in recommending it to others suffering from that dreadful disease.—J. w. Lynch, Dorr, W. Va. This remedy is sold hv Jno. Coughlin, 177 Water St., Druggist.

Perfect Weather for Carrying Out Its Time Honored Customs. Perfect weather prevailed. Wednes day, and the ceremonies attending the decoration of the graves of departed soldiers, seemed never to have been more beautifully appropriate. Kven though the ranks seem, and actually are thinning fast, the tender recollec tions and the patriotic impulses of those honored men who have their ser vices when the union was in peril ren tier lasting, and never-to-be-forgotten influences.

Base ball nines from the Pleasant Hour Club and the Bough Riders crossed bats on the Muster field, Wednesday afternoon, and after sev eral hours of hard work in the first real hot sun of the spring, the score was found to be 111 to 7 in favor of the Pleasant Hour team. Neither team as an aggregation had had the benefit of any practice prior to the game, but as reference to the lists below will reveal, there are names which have adorned sundry score cards times and times before. They have played the game—may have been a little rusty, yesterday, but when they one** got thejr eye on the ball they tried to play as in days of old. Some of the members of both teams at. playing the game right along, and, by the way, are playing good ball, too. The teams were as follows: Pleasant Hour. MeBaln e. Patten M. Day s.s. 1..

In appearance this people's restaurant resembles a palatial mansion, rather than a cheap dining-room. Its white stone walls have not yet had time t i assume tie molest gray ..f the majority "f London buildings. A hr ad flight of steps leads up to two doors, by which admittance is gained to the central hall. The women •nter by a sp. eial door, a wise precau tion at present, for the crush at tie main entrance would be far from pleasant preliminary to a thrcc-coui s. dinner. The hall is wide and spacious, and from either side doors open into the huge dining-room, capable of seat ing non hungry people. It is deearated with palms and plants. on entering, both nun and women obtain cheeks for the amount they are willing to spend on their midday meal. The 4V..1. dinners were by far the most popular, and the dining-hall was crowded. The brass cheeks were pre semen i.i mi' wuiircssi s, wno, in ivnnc i'ii)) and apron, serve the meals over a huge counter in the middle of the dining-room. Each person (ji ts his own I in nor, which is served on a little tray 'anil consists of three courses. Every •lay three different dinners are pre pared. and any one of them can hi' had for the trifling sum of 4*'jii And an excellent dinner it is—the best of food, well cooked and well served. Here is the menu of the 4*,4il. dinners for one day: Snip: plate of Irish stnv: plate of roast pork or large steak pudding; two vegetables: pastry, or mug of tea. cof fee or cocoa. Mi n were crowded three or four deep in front of the c mnter waiting their turn. As Soon as the little tray had been securely grasped they at once made their way to the tables with which the room was tilled and lost no time in depatching their meal. Each table holds about 10 people, and each is provided with salt and pepper in casters. All sorts and conditions of people were represented among the diners. They were most easily classi fied by their headwear. Uaps, bowlers and felt hats were there in almost equal proportions, and I even saw sev eral siik hats in the midst of the hun gry crowd. There were factory hands, laborers, clerks, newsboys and a few small business men. Many had come out of curiosity. Upstairs a similar sight was seen. The diners there, however, were most ly women, with a fairsprinkling of men who preferred to dine a la carte. A meal on tihis floor works out tit a course dinner. Hut the list to select front is very varied, and almost as long as that of an American hotel. The dearest item is a pork chop at 4d.. and the cheapest the puddings costing Vjd. each. Plates of beef, mutton,1 pork, or stew can all be had for the I modest sum of 2*4.1.

It is connected with all the floors and the basement by servil e lift worked by cb-i i, power. All th it is necessary is to touch a button and the steaming din ner. glide noislelessly down to the busy hands ready to serv them out to the waiting people below. The kitchen is splendidly equipped ill every P sp- et. Food by the ton and soup by the gal lon can be coked without any more trouble th in it takes to prepare an or dinary midday m al. Th- re are two huge o\ ns heated by gas which can roast 17 hundredweight if meat be tween them. Two and a quarter tons of potatoes i an be cooked within an hour.

Tlie building is lighted throughout by Ice trie light. Tile water comes from .1 Well 300 feet deep sunk beneath the building, lavatories are provided for both men ar.d women, where they can get i free wash and a l>rusli-up. Boot blacks are also in const wit attendance who will polish your boots till they shine again for a half-penny. A woman bootblack looks after the shoes of the women diners. I talked to many of the men who had partaken of the three-course dinner, and all were agreed that Sir Thomas I.ipton had succeeded in solving, for th m at least, th- problem which confronts th lusands in all our large cities—where to obtain a good meal, well cooked, at cheap ptic s. and in a building which is cl- in and comfortable. II.V'K SAWS. And Saws f Yari us Other Sorts That Ate F d in Putting Metals. i N’ w York Sun.) No doubt the mmon idea of a saw would 1.. an implement used for sawing ..1. and such is the chief use to which saws are put: but there are als many saws used for sawing met als. The most commonly used of these saws is what is culled a hack saw. The hack saw is built something like a meat saw; that is, the blade is hill between the bent-down ends of a frame, to ore end "f which is attached the handle, by which, in the ordinary way, the saw is plied; but the hack saw is smaller than the meat saw. with a far more slender frame, and a light, slender Made. There are various styles and sizes if hack saw frami s Including extension frames, in whieh can lie used, accord ing as the frame is adjusted, saws of different lengths: luit the hack saw blade is not riveted into its frame, hut adjusted there; and blades can in- tak en out or put in at will. The blades are very narrow ond very thin, and very fine toothed; they are made of a steel specially hardened for the use. In the manufacture of the blades, the teeth are set and filed by machines with greater accuracy than that work could lie done by hand, and at much less c -t. Formerly many hack saw blades were imported from Kngland. now there are very few im ported: the American blades are better and far cheaper. They are so inexpen sive that when worn dull they are not refiled; it is cheaper to use a new blade. The hack saw blades most commonly used are made in various lengths rang ing from six to fourteen inches: per haps there art sold more eight inch blades than any other. These saw blades are put up in dozens, a dozen of them together making only a slen der little bundle. The average price at retail is about 65 cents a dozen. Hack saws are used in many trades. A jeweler would have some little back saws on his work bench; hack saws are used by machinists, locksmiths, stove makers, plumbers, brassworkers, foun drymen; they are used in all trades in which metals are w irked; and the car penter. supposed to be a worker in wood alone, is likely to have a hack saw in his kit of tools; he may want to saw off a bolt, or something of that soil; and for that matter hack saws arc sometimes used for sawing wood. How long a hack saw will last de pends of course very largely on how crHsemcnls. at Newbert’s Lkrt Shoe Co., AUK CASH. OARDINkr, MAINE. Hallowell Advertisements. J.W.

'if i wer driven saws for metals, rncern in New York city alone has on its books the names of To.000 people who have been, or are to be, supplied with artificial limbs, it is understood that wars hav very little effect on the business. The railroads are the great limb de sttoyers; they are responsible for far me than disease. There are 100,000 pci-..ns killed or maimed yearly on th*- railroads of the T'nited States alone. These are principally employes, a very small percentage being passen gers. Formerly the* manufacture of artificial limbs was merely a local in dustry. but the degree of perfection in strength of construction and delicacy of design to which the New York manufacturers have attained, has spread the reputation of the product to far-off countries, and New York is now shipping to all parts of the world. The manufacture, s are always look ing out for new means f Increasing t'nc- handiness and life-like appearance of their devices. Among recent im provements are the- rubber hand and foot. The flexible fingers are made of N a way iron, the* most malleable of metals, whic h gives th-* person wear ing the* hand the ability to easily put it into any position at will.
