IN FAVOR OF PLAINTIFF Reicript Handed Oown in Famous Skowhejan Water Privilege Case. Bangor, Me., July 10.—.—A rescript has been handed down in the ease of the Skowhegan Water Power Co. vs. Weston, one of the most im portant legal battles to mill operators, lumbermen and land owners, ever started in Somerset county, which fixes the rights of tile owners of mill privil eges. The rescript is as follows: Where there are two or more natural channels in a river, the respective rights of the riparian owners upon each of such channels, independent of grant, contract, statute or prescription, are well settled. The riparian owners up on each of such channels are entitled to have flow through their respective channels so much of the water of the river as would naturally flow, and no more. The owners upon one channel cannot lawfully, by widening or deep ening their channel or by other means, cause a greater proportion of the wa ter to flow through such channel than otherwise would. But if the natural flow through one channel is checked by dams or otherwise, and the flow of Water through another channel is thereby increased, the riparian owners upon such other channel can lawfully make use of this extra flow. They can lawfully use all the water that nature or the aits of other parties send to them. The Kennebec river at Skowhegan is divided into two channels by an island known as Skowhegan island, and the island itself is again divided by a third channel which extends across the island near its north end. in a north 'easterly direction, and substantially .at right angles with tic general course of the other two channels. These three channels are known as the northern, southern and middle channels. The defendants are owners of the northern part of this island. Including that portion through which the water of tlte middle channel flows, together with the land upon both sides thereof, having aciiuired title thereto. l>y mesne conveyances, under an original deed in which tin- land inv-ynl, tin- north portion of the island, was desf the island made various reservations f a hints* If. his heirs and assigns, tin- imj> u ian: [tot lions of w hich arc as full iws.

"Also the right to ei.-.-t and main I lain a Jam or 'lams u;• >n the channel or slui(nvay in which saiil Weston's mills stand, (the idle channel) in order ti save the wattr fur the use of ,li mills upon the said southern channel, whenever the said Weston, his heirs assigns, shall cease or omit to main tain dams sufficient for tha; putpos'." Also, the right t" j in a dam v hich may hereafter l>e erected to the mirth part of said island, and the same to repair, rebuild and maintain f. r vcr." other reservations contained in the deed are not important in the di termi nation of the nuestions involved. Tic' defendants have acquired their tilic under this deed and th* ir rights and privileges are subject to the reserva tion therein contained: The i un plainants claimed t have acquire I til the rights and privileges reserved by the grantor in ltis deed to hints if and his heirs and assigns. Held: that the language used in the first reservation, “the free and unob structed use of the water which shail run or lie turned into the southern channel" means and is equivalent t The natural Mow of the water and may run or he turned'’ into that ehan m 1. That In \b tile of this reservation, those claiming under that deed are d priced of certain rights which as up per riparian owners upon tile s uthern channel they would otherwise have iiad. But that there is nothing in the first reservation which deprives the owners of tin* middle channel of tile use of all tIlf water that naturally li iws through or is turned into their channel by dams upon the tie r chan nels. That the object and int. nt of the second reservation was to prevent the •waste of water through the middl channel, not its use; that it does n a prevent, and was not intended to pre vent. the use by those claiming under that deed of any water that might b used in its Mow through this channel, so I ng as the capacity of that channel is not improperly increased: and that the plaintiffs are not entitled to the relief prayed for. that the defendants may lie restrained from interfering to prevent the erection by the plaintiffs of a dam across this middle channel, because it is not claimed that any water is wasted through this channel or that the dams of the owners are In sufficient to prevent such waste. That the allegations in the bill that the defendants “by using new. larg.-r and ad ditional water wheels, are about tn in crease grettly the amount r water used therein beyond what they are entitled to. and thereby deprive ihe plaintiffs of a large portion of tin* water wiiirh thev are entitled to have flow through said middle channel" does not entitle the plaintiffs t„ the relief prayed for. because in, defend ants, having the ordinary rights of ripa ALL DISEASES A.VD WEAKNESSES OF MEN From whatever cause Arfiintr, quick I v and perma i.’iiUy Cured at the Old Reliable IV.iImhD Medical Institute, No.4 HuMihU street |N>*ft*' Revere House), Boston, Mums., Established in 1,-M Chief CoiiNiiliina Phvwieian. graduate of Har v.nrd Modteal Collepre, Class of H7:. late Sunre.»i M i Re*.

If that Is so. it is a decided violation of health board ordinances and the steam ship company, or whoever is respon. sible, must comply with the law. The superintendent of the cemetery has ad mitted that the coffins were placed in the trench as closely as they could be laid and that no earth was placed be. tween them. He said more ground would have to be provided by the steamship company if the health board laws were to be strictly obeyed. It is alleged that some of the t->p coffins are barely three feet below the surface. A state law requires that th-re must be at least four feet be tween the surface and the coffin. It Is also charged that some of the coffins were cracked when they were placed in the ground. t ORDER OF ELKS. 36th Annual Meeting ol Grand Loige Open al Atlantic City. Atlantic City. N. J..

The list of the Democratic bolters ol who are now returning to the Bry an fold is not long enough to be eon sldered worthy of publication by tie Democratic papers. That affair reported from Paney ii which TO Filipinos and no American were killed, is called in the dispatehei "a running tight.” It isn't difficult to tel who did tlie running and who the light ing. The Boston Herald asserts that Bryat isn’t a tyrant, even though he doe absolutely dominate the subservien Democracy. It holds that he is nothin; worse than an instrument in the hand of liis own folly. The li mit- f Ui*“ Republican vice presldentlal camliilatc signifies, in the language of his Hutch ancestors, “a tit-hl of roses.” Ilis enemies know the loses are there by the frequency anti sharpness of the thorns. The Democratic faithful of Maine will assemble at Lewiston, today, to ehoose a virtim for sacrifice at the polls in September. llryan and llryanism will be Riven an unqualified endorse ment, and the chief diversion of the day will he in guessing how much above the average will be the lb-pub lican majority. Knglaml is having her day of "vat scandals" which nre taking much of tile satisfaction out of the South Afri can victory. When at the close of on war with Spain there was a breeze ol agitation over poorly equipped trans ports and canned supplies that were unfit to eat. there was a sneer in the English press and the tone of "How mui h better we would h ive done it” wits' manifest. Now the hour of Britain's humiliation has come, for though it is a great military power, constantly prepared for war, which America was not when it wiped Spain off tile western hemisphere and off a large part of the eastern, its trans port scandals are far worse than ours and the hardest part of it all is th. breaking down of the hospital service, and hundreds of deaths from lack ol physicians and medical supplies. But it is all a part of war, after all, and the best prepared nation cannot strip til* camp and hospital, and transport of their deprivations nnd horrors aii\ more than it can keep death from the battlefield. America’s Foreign-Born. Those who are disturbed by the pos sible effect upon our country's future »»y the steady stream of immigration, will get some degree „f reassurance from an article in the July North f American Review by Mulhall, the dis tinguished British statistician. Mulhall makes a particularly interesting study of the foreign-born population of this country, and as he has the immigration figures of recent years to aid him his results are much more than estimates of the census returns. He finds that, in spite of the large immigration in re cent years, the foreign-born element is relatively decreasing. The number of these foreign-born now in America, Mr. Mulhall declares, will be shown by the census to be 10,160,000 as compared with 9,250,00*1 in 1S90. Within the past t'-ii years 3,543,000 persons have landed in this country. But Mr. Mulhall esti mates that of these new immigrants and the old ones, 1,550,0*10 have died, and 1,082,000 have returned to their homes across the sea. Of the Irish im migrants, according to this authority, 13 per cent, have returned to their na tive country. 11 per cent, of the tier mans and 35 per cent, of the British. Together, the Irish and Germans, tiic two largest elements in our foreign population, made up fifty per cent, of the whole foreign-born in this country in 1890, but because of tin- decrease of Irish and German immigration and the increased influx of other nationalities, the Irish-German proportion of our foreign-born stands now, Mr. Mulhall i estimates, at about forty-three per cent. Indeed, he believes that the ac tual number of Irish and German im migrants in this country has decreased within a decade. Here are his esti mates for the present year as com pared with the three years of the pre ceding decennial census: let-mans, Irish. British. Scandinavians. Russians and Poles, Austrians, Italians, French, Swiss, Ctllllese, Dutch. Canadians, do.. 1880. 2, V,.l«Kl ijrd.''w# bt.tssi xin.imo 3*11.KKl Is;;.10*1 lgi.imti l'M.iol 1*17,*1*1*1 sl.tKNl l.lST.mui 2,61*1.1*11 l,7si..c;

Mr. Mulhall believes that the present census will show that this for eign proportion has fallen to 13.4 per cent. Hi- expects to see it continue to decrease until in the next century the foreign-born el* lm-nt constitutes only an insignificant fraction of the Amer ican people. Same Flaws in the Paramount" Plank. To export consistency of the Democ racy would l)e a most unreasonable anil unheard of proceeding, but the in consistencies of the Kansas City plat form in dealing with what it is pleased to term "the paramount issue” are un usually glaring, even for Ilryanisin. The hot wave which struck the city along with the delegates, put their minds in a sad state of befuddlenient. For instance, they declare that ‘‘all governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed,” and in the very next paragraph they de mand that the T’niti d States "give” the Philippines "a stable government.” They "hold that the constitution fol lows the tlag." and yet though the ting is in the Philippines they do not allow that the constitution is operative there to make the Filipinos citizens. They issue a grand denunciation against "militarism,” alleging that it is in volved in our holding of the Philip pines. and yet they call for the perpet ual protection of the Philippines from outside interference. Tin y view with alarm the danger to the Monroe doc trine involved in the acquirement of the Philippines, and yet they demand that the I'nited Stat‘-s assure to the Phil ippines "protection from outside inter ference, such ss has Neon given for nearly a century to the republics of Central and South America.” Yes. tin Pemociacy is sadly mixed in its treat ment of "the paramount issut.” It is not so familiar with word juggling a long the line of contraction as it is on the themes of repudiation and dis honor. _ The Increasing Railroad Business. The work of the railroads is a sure index of the business conditions of the country, and the report of the inter state commerce commission for tin* fis cal year ending June 30, presents pros perity facts that no calamity howler can controvert. For the railways of the country it was an exceptionally prosperous yeart f' wer roads went under receivership and there was an advance of business in all depart ments. The report shows that the total single track mileage in the Pnited States was 1S9.294. an increase for the year of 2N9S. Ttiis increase is gri ater than for any year since 1S93. The aggregate length of mileage, including tracks of all kinds, was 212,301. There were 36.703 locomotives in service at the I end of the year, or 409 more than for the year ended Junv 30, 1898. The total number of cars of all classes in the ser vice was 1.373,916, an increase of 49,742. The number of persons employed on l ailmads was 928.924. an increase for the year of 34.366. Exactly 523.176,308 passengers were carried during the year, an increase of more than 22,000.000 over tho year previous.

This interest ing theory in mineralogy Congressman Shafroth enlarged upon, adding that the proportion was so in Solomon’s time, “according to the latest report." Hereupon a delegate, either a humorist or very obtuse, asked Congressman Shafroth for the date of Solomon's lat est report, and came very ne ir break ing up the convention besides stopping the How of the congressman’s oratory.

Lewiston Journal: Those Watervllle rumselb rs seem to entertain tin notion that if they get sulky and shut up shop and oblige every one to stpy out of the liquor business in this city that pretty soon large delegations of citizens will come around bearing petitions entreat ing them to open up once more.

OUR BREAD i not only ROoil but it i- appetizing. The . Russell who ha that important part of the duties of the secretary of State's office in charge. As Mr. Pettingill is looked on as one of tin* strongest men in the next House the ac: is considered one of importance. Grant Rogers, the prohibition candidate for governor has finally tiled his nomina tion papers. lie was nominated some time ago but the papers were not filed until this week. The following company has filed ar ticles of incorporation at the office of the secretary of State: Plymouth Match Company, organized at Kittery for the purpose of manufac turing Mid dealing in matches with $2M0. c«h» capital stock of which nothing i- paid in. The officers are: President, Hiram M. Rurtoii «.f Poston; treasurer, Walter S. Salt of New York. Certificate ap proved July 7. Actions and Sign at Variance. The blind man who has been doing busi ness in the city for a day or two left the streets, yesterday, through the order of the police. During the morning he took a place in front of the post office. He had liung upon his chest a sign stating who he was and a statement that to Christian workers he was better known by an alias. The officers had several re quests to make the man move from the street but no action was t iken until tin* man took a station in front of the Cony house. There he began to sing Gospel hymns. The travelling men who were trying to write upstairs found it impos sible to work with the noise, and a com plaint was mad to the police. Deputy Marshal Grover, in a gentlemanly man ner requested tin- man to move, saying that^he would lead him to a place farthev down the street. To his surprise, Deputy Marshal Grover received a reply that was anything but in harmony with the cm.-s on the blind man’s breast. A tor rent of abuse and anathemas followed. The man was then ordered from the street and has not since been seen. Small-Oufl. A very pretty wedding occurred at St. Mary’s church, Tuesday morning, when Paul Small of Lancaster, N. 11., and Miss Mary E. Duff of this city, were married at S.:t0 o’clock. The bride was attended by Miss Josephine Shea, as bridesmaid. The groomsman was Charles F. Hurley. At the eonclusion of the ceremony, at which a large num ber were present, the wedding party re turned to the home of the bride, where a wedding breakfast was served. The popularity of Mr. and Mrs. Small j was shown by the large number of wedding presents they received. They I left on the morning train for the West, and will spend their honeymoon at Boothbay and the Islands. A largo party was at the station to see them off. and previous to the departure of, the train, the air was filled with old shoes, lice and flowers. Ralph House Located. Maj. C. J. House received word, yes terday afternoon, that his son Ralph had been located in Haverhill. The first inti- mation he had received of the son being 1 in that section was when a telegram. 1 signed liy Dr. H. L. Stevens, stated that the boy was sick in that city and asked for instructions. Maj. House left on the afternoon train for Haverhill. If the young man is well enough he will lie brought back to this city. It is thought Ralph must have walked the greater part of the way to Haverhill, as he did not have money enough with him to take him out of til? State. The opinion is expressed that the long walk completely tired him out. A resident on Sand hill complains that the orchard thieves have already begun their work. They must be look ing for an attack of stomach ache to steal apples at this premature stag)'. What Sha’I We Have for Dessert. This question arises In the farnly ev ery day. Let us answer It today.

Orange, Raspberry and Strawberry. coal vessels on the river will seldom lie seen. The ice industry of this country is of such magnitude that It undoubtedly will be a surprise to many to note the facts and figures as compared wtih those of mining. The ice crop of Maine which in some seasons affords an annual profit of $4. 000.000 or $5,000,000, exceeds the annual profits of gold mining in California, for it is to be noted that the average cost of producing and making a ton of ice is far less than tile average cost of mining and treating a ton of quartz, and that the percentage of profit realized in the pro duction and sale of icc is far greater than the percentage of available profit real ized from the production of gold. James D. Hughes of New York, an au thority on mining, makes the following comparison: ‘‘The Hudson river yearly ice crop is between 3.0o0,000 and 4,000,000 tons. As suming the lower figure as a net aver age. clear of waste, and reckoning the average price paid by all consumers, large and small at $5 per tun f the total annual gold product of the date of California.” The quartz vein once exhausted can yield nothing more, production can uiiy be maintained by more extended de velopment in length or depth (at in L'rcased cost), or by the discovery of oth er veins, while the Hudson river forms Its vein afresh every winter. The annual consumption of ice in the Cnited States which is estimated us 25, XM.noO tons, at $1 per ton, would amount to $100,000,000, considerably exceeding in commercial value the total annual prod uct of precious metals, gold and silver reckoned together, from the whole of the 1'ntted States, which in ISSN amounted to E>fi,5Sl,4(X>. The members of the First I baptist Sunday School had a delightful trip Imvn river, yesterday. They left early in the morning, going to Gardiner by [he Electrics. There they boarded the steamer Islander. They returned, in the evening, having had a most de lightful trip. The county convention of tne Prohi bitionists will be held in City hall in this city, at 10 o’clock Thursday morn ing. Washington, D. C. Hlenesee Pure Food r«.,l,e Hoy, X.

T is significant that in homes of wealth where the very best is demanded, Ivory Soap is used in the nursery. At the same time, in hundreds of families where economy decides the choice, Ivory Soap is selected. Thus its purity attracts the rich; its economy attracts the poor. High quality and low cost: is there any better combination? An Old Home Week Communication. Editois nf the Kennebec Journal: t 1 am sorry It was left to the genial commissioner of tabor statistics ami lie' secretary of the >lil Home Week State 1 Association to take up his pen (which is sometimes might!. r than the sword) in tltdime, if any defence is necessary of tie i t|d II .me Week movement. I was in hopes that some other enthusiast of the movement rather than the commissioner himself would rush to the rescue and denounce in mime tsured term the atti tude of the little communication in Satur day’s Journal. But no. it was left to the secretary himself to show that the writ ers presumption was wrong and that the scheme was tiound to be a success. Look at the invitations seat out! 30,000 of them! Won’t that brine our fril Mils j home from far and near? Why of course lit will: what is to hinder? Not the lack I of invitations. But it is one thins to baid a horse to water and another thins to make him drink. No better man in the State of Maine 1 could have been selected for the position of secretary of the Old Home Week State Association than our friend, the commis sioner of tabor statistics. And furthi r more, no man would put mop time, more i thought, and more labor into it than lie So far as that is concerned, the move ment is all risht. But the secretary can’t do everything. The matter Is a second-hand affair anyway, and Maine doesn’t lik and never liked, to play sec ond fiddle. The honorable commissioner could have S"iie farther and cited the names of the many eminent men of M fine who. In our opinion, have outsped the loyal sons »f New Hampshire and have shaped and di rected the legislation of this groat land In the halls of Congress fur the last lifts years. The movement 1 am afraid lacks popularity and does not possess the unanimity of action that it should in make it a grand success. Augusta, July 9. W. Met).

Funeral services will be held at the home on Grove street, at 3 o'clock P. M. Thursday. It will be but a comparatively short time before Itines hill will be repaired and the necessary changes made to place it in the best of condition.

NVw yoi k. July 10.—Tile Common ial Ail vei l iser says: A11 intelligent Chinaman who is vory much Americanized, said. Tuesday, that there were Boxers in this city, that they were organized and active and that Chinatown, which has so of ten been described as calm and alto gether indifferent to the news from China was under the surface in a state of intense excitement. "But. then, tile Boxers here." accord ing to tile story, "are not very numer ous. Their power and influence comes of tin* secret and religious manner of their activity, and the vague feeling of unrest which arises out of the knowl edge that the home government is in no stable condition, so that it is ditll cult for a man that hopes some day to go home to know with whom he will ally himself. "The informant goes on to assert that whether many or few, real or fraudu lent. the so-called Boxers have estab lished lodges or secret conclaves to which they are .nviting all the Chinese of the quarter. They are not requiring active participation in the most secret work of the organization but they do demand money and money they do get This money, they say, is to lie sent home to keep the anti-foreign move ment ali'e in China, end it is made more acceptable to all the Chinese by the representation that the purpose of the organization is not t kill foreign ers in China but to create and foster a party which shall prevent the de spoiling of their country.

Mr. and Mrs. Charles Merrill, who were united in marriage, Saturday evening, were given a serenade at their rooms on Robinson street, Monday evening. They responded and ail the assembly passed the remained of tin* evening in a most pleasant way. On the common, this evening, there will he the first hand concert by the Oardiner Band of the season. They have been putting in a great deal of their time in rehearsals and can now give good music. All are invited to at tend this concert and enjoy it as much as they can. At a little after *1 o'clock yesterday afternoon, a fire was discovered on tile end of the roof I the Decker A- Day Co. in the rear of their store. Some of the Kagle Hose |>nys happened to be near and they soon had their team mi the scene and a line of h**se I lid. It was hut a minute when the blaze was all out and the loss will lie con fined to a few shingles. The cause was probably a spark from a passing loco motive. The steamer Oardiner will commence, Saturday, July M, to make daily trips i to Boothbay and the Islands, leaving j Oardiner 1.30 1*. M., instead of the i morning. Three times a week, Mon- days, Thursdays and Saturdays, she will leave from Augusta at 1 I’. M. She I will leave Boothbay in the morning at j (1.43 daily. This arrrangement will lie a I great accommodation to business men i and others who do not care to leave home until afternoons. There is trouble in store for some of j the younger people of the city and when it is meted out to them, it will not seem so funny,as it lias in the past. I i n Monday evening, some of them, they are known, made themselves gen erally disliked by demolishing some of the plants and tearing down signs from j the trees on the common. It is gener ally thought that all in the city take I such pride in this place to rather as I sist in its good looks rather than de-j stray it. Despite the present dry weather, there Is no reason to fear a shortage of water in the stream and ponds. At the present time there is about 3,xo cubic feet per second passing through tlif gates at tin- upper dam. Since the dry spell has set in, there has been drawn (mm the big pond about 1 r> Inch es of water. There remains to It di awn now about feel. The amount of water that is In ing used by the ser viei s along the mains is about 550.000 feet per day. Chief Engineer Drake, who is also 1st vice president of the Maine Fire men's Association, has received a let ter from Chief John Mason of Bangor, president, that there will be a meeting of the exeentiVe committee ill this city, Thursday of this week. He expresses great sorrow that the muster has been given up in this city, but blames none of those connected with it here. It may mean that an overhauling will be the result of the meeting of the executive committee. At any rate, the result is looked forward to with a great deal of interest by the firemen. The Merchants’ excursion seems to be meeting with the approval of all and it is now possible that not only will the merchants and their clerks go but some grades of the professional men. While it has been decided to go to Boothbay, there Is a bare possibility that a triii to Harpswell may lie taken. This is considered by some as a very easy matter to do. The steamer Island Bello can be obtained and make the trip from here, leaving in tile early morning. There at Harpswell, A. N. W. Smith, who runs the Brunswick Hotel, can easily serve dinner for all at one time. Some of the merchants are strongly in favor of this idea and it may be decided on. Narrow Escaie From Dralh. A little son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Haskell at Farmingdale. had a narrow escape from death. Monday afternoon. The spur track of the Electric Hoad to the gravel pit runs by their house. He went out to play and climbed' aboard the ear which was standing there on the track. In some way. he loosened the brake and the car started fur the bank at terrific speed. The grade is very steep and there are some sharp i nrvi s. The car kept the track and lie clung hold. When at the end, the car plunged into the liank. going in about 5 feet. This broke the hold of the little f llow. and he. t was thrown against and into the bank. There were no witnesses to the scene and soon the boy crawl d out and started for the house, there being met by his mother and sisters. A doctor was sent for and it was found that except for a few ser.iti lies and bruises he was unhurt. Had he happened to struck a rock of any size when he was thrown against the bank lie could not have escaped death. Funeral ot the Late Alexander Dow.
