Tiangor. j.p,., April 10.—The returns of the election of Monday from the towns in the 4th District are exceeding ly glow in coming in and for several days some places in the northern part of Aroostook are not likely to he heard from. On Wednesday afternoon, lfon. Llew ellyn Powers telegraphed the I’onimer cial from lloulton that S3 towns and plantations heard from in Aroostook give him 1733 majority, the remain ing ones >n !$!1X gave him 417 majority. Tlie estimates made, Monday night, hv State Chairman Simpson of the lte puhlicnn party, that Powers' majority will lie from 1500 to 1800, seems likely to be quite nearly correct. Aroostook will give probably somewhat near 2000 majority while as tlie Democrats claim. Penobscot will decrease that somewhat, the other two counties being nearly evenly divided.

Portland, Me., April 10.—The annual session of tin' t.rand Lodge of Good Tcmplais of Maine opened in thin city, this forenoon, and the meetings viil eontinue until tomorrow night. The work of the opening session was large ly routine in character including pre paratory bu: ine-a. examination of cre dentials and the initiation of candi dal:; desiring the Grand Lodge degree. The report 1 of the grand etlicers also were read, the most important being that of Grand Chief Templar Uriah A. Caine. The report states that circulars have been sent to representative temperance men and women, containing live «|itcs tions pertaining to the temperance cause. When received the replies will be classified ami it is hoped that many helpful ideas for guidance in the work may be thus obtained.

I Vlllefrnnehe. April 1C.-President Lou (Cont'.nued :n page 3.) BOTHA WEAKENS He Re-opens Negotiations for Peace With the British. I DeWet's Mind Failing and Responsi bility of War Rests on Boll,a. Tjo Much for Kim. Co lirdertak s 10 Nego tiate tar Whole Arir.y.

Cape Town, April 10.—Gen. Hi it ha ha.t reopened negotiation!! with the British for peace. As explained here, this ac tion was determined in part by Gen. Gen. Botha’s discovery at a recent meeting that Gen. DeWet's intellect had weakened, and that his influence with his followers was diminishing and that a continuance of the campaign, in view of Gen. DeWet's irresponsibility, rested with Gen. Botha alone. It is understood that although Gen. DeWet at his recent interview with Gen. Botha refused to" surrender, Gen. Botha, regarding him as irresponsible, undertakes to negotiate in behalf of the entire Boer forces. The British author ties here consider that if Gen. Bo'.ha surrendered, DeWet's following can be easily taken. London, April 11.—"It is semi-oflicial ly asserted here.” says the Cape Town correspondent of the Daily Telegraph, "that Gen. Botha has had another in terview with Lord Kitchener, in which he informed him that he has si on Gen. DeW’et. who still refused to entertain the idea of surrender on any terms. Gen. Botha, however, regards DeWet as no longer responsible for his ac tions. and seeks a modus vivendi on Ik half of all the burgher forces." The report that Gen. Botha has re newed the negotiations with Lord Kitchener, is not yet officially report ed. but it is generally credited and r-e ecivcd with satisfaction except by th>* ultra-jingoes, who fear that the gov ernment will renew the terni3 recently rejected. Regarding Gen. DcWet's mental con dition. report" have been very con liieting for some time. Mia recent in activity points to there being some truth in the rumors which allege mat h ng continued hardships under the hnrrassing British pursuit have un hinged his mind. On the. other hand, a correspondent of the Times quite recently acknowl edged the "wonderful foresight and fertility of resource" which character ized Gen. DeWct's retreat from Cape Colony. New York. April 10.—Charles D. Pierce official representative in New York of the Boers, gives positive denial of the statement cabled from Hurnpo that President Kruger will sail for the United Suites on May 31. “There is ab solutely nothing in the story.” he said "Mr. Kruger may come here in the fall but not sooner. lie is taking the rest which he needs so badly.*’ TRANSPORT RAWLiNS SUNK.

Matanzas anil Cienfuegos, is lying v.ith her saloon deck awash in .‘10 feet of water, south of the army pier at the foot ot Pacific street. Brooklyn. Fire was discovered aft the Iiawlin’s main engine room, early this morning. Two alarms brought to the pier six engines, two truck:? and throe flreboats and at 9.30 o’clock so many gallons of water had been pumped into the transport's hold that she keeled over and with water rushing in through her open ports, settled slowly until her keel touched bottom. Four men were overcome by smoke. The property loss will not ex ceed 150,000. It will cost perhaps J20. 000 more to pump her out and raise her. Washington, April 10.—The war de partment, today, received this telegram from the quartermasters’ department in New York concerning the sinking of the transport Rawlins: "Transport Rawlins caught fire at 6.20 A. M., today: she was flooded and sunk to put out the fire. Loaded with hay. straw, bran, oats, general cargo commissary stores." There were 600,000 pounds of quarter master’s supplies and 140.000 pounds of commissary stores on the ship. The Sedgwick will go to Cuba in place of the Rawlins. The coroner’s inquest at Portland on the death of Moses G. Klliott in 'he Grand Trunk yard in Portland. 1 ?st week, resulted in a verdict that the man committed suicide.

A GROSS INSULT By Chinese Minister Promptly Punished by Russian. Another Talc of Yang Yu’s Injuries at St. Petersburg. Foreign Ministrrs Will. Tct’ay. Confer on Ar ticles ol Joint Note. J Paris. April 10.—The Patrie, today, publishes a dispatch from St. Peters burg which says the Chinese minister there. Yang Y’u. grossly insulted Count LamsdorfT, the Russian minister of for eign affairs during a discussion of the Manchurian question, whereupon the count ordered his lackey to put the minister out and Yang Yu was thrown down stairs and fatally injured in the head. Berlin. April 10.—Prince Chtng and Prince Chun, according to a special dispatch from Pekin, sent to Count Von VValdersee precious birthday gifts and Prince Chun, accompanied by his younger brothers, called upon the count and personally congratulated him upon the anniversary. The same correspondent asserts that the reports of the outbreak of a rebel lion in Mongolia and Shen Si headed by Oen. Tung Fu Hsiang, are not credited In Pekin. "England is intriguing In Pekin." says a dispatch to the Frankfurter Zeitung from the Chinese capital, “to secure the substitution* of Prince Su for Prince Chin in the journey to Berlin to express Emperor Kwang Su's re grets for the murder of Baron Von Ketteler. and she wishes to combine Prince Su's trip for that purpose with the Chinese special embassy to London to tender Emperor Kwang Su's con gratulations to King Ev. aid on his ac cession. “A perceptible coolness has arisen be tween Count Von AValderrce and l>r. Munim Von Schwartzenstein. piin clpally because the command-T-in ohief has refused to order the troops to render the minister military honors, as to do so would be contrary to tier man army instructions." Pekin, April 10.—A meeting of tin ministers of the powers will b- h*dd, tomorrow, to consider the report m tie generals upon Article VIII and IX of the joint note, referring respectively to the destruction of the forts which might obstruct free communication be tween Pekin and the sea and the mili tary occupation of certain points, in order to mantain communication b tween Pekin and the sea. The Belgians who have missions in the disturbed districts of Mongolia say they do not believe* the rebellion wii! make much headway. St. Petersburg, April 10.—The Itur sian press is abandoning the r-*:op.v with which it first discussed the gov ernment declaration on the subject of Manchuria. It now declares- that the joy with which the British press gre* l ed China's refusal to sign the M.tnrhfl rian agreement, has merely postponed the signing of :r new understanding understanding with China since the convention would be advantageous to China. One paper says: “Our London friends overlooked the fact that ie.Jfcs suading the signing of the agreer3fc| they did not hasten the evacuation Iff Manchuria, but strengthened Russia's position. London. April 11.—*‘M. DoGiers de mands the return of all communica tions to the Chinese authorities from the Russian legation re garding the Manchurian negotiations" says Dr. Morrison, wiring to the Time? from I’ekin, "and he has warned Li Hung Chang that, instead of being, as heretofore, an advocate of the Chinese cause in the conference of the minis ters of the powers, he will henceforth support the policy of the utmost se verity. "Russia has still ample means to in dulge this spirit. The report is cur rent but I believe it is premature that Russia has already prepared a fresh form of convention. Doubtless, how ever. when the process of intimidation lias been carried for enough, a fresh at tempt will be made to recover the lost ground.” Dr. Morrison, wiring to the Times from Pekin, Tuesday, draws a gloomy picture of the situation there and urges the necessity of withdrawing troops before the hot, rainy season sets in. adding that unless orders for with drawal arrive before May it will be al most impossible to move before au tumn. “Neither the Chinese nor the minis ters of the powers,” says Dr. Morrison, “are responsible for the slowness of the negotiations but rather the home* gov ernments. whose apparent indifference and dilatoriness provokes much ad verse comment among the diplomatic body. “Competent observers believe that the anti-foreign feeling in the province of Chi Li is more prevalent than ever.” MIDDLE CP THE ROAD POPS Will Vote.

To Mothers of large Families. In this workaday world few women arc so placed that physical exertion is not constantly demanded of them in their daily life. Mrs. Pinklinm makes a special appeal to mothers of large families whose work is never done, and many of whom suffer, and suffer for lack of intelligent aid. To women, young or old, rich or poor, Mrs. Pinkham, of Lvnn, Mass., extends her invitation of free adviee. Oh, women 1 do not let your lives bo sacrificed when a word from Mrs. Pinkham, at the first approach of Mu. Cap. sir Bei.levillb. weakness, may fill your future ye*rn with healthy joy. “When I began to take Lydia E. Pinkhara's Vegetable Compound 1 was i not able to do my housework. I suf- feied terribly at time of menstruation. Several doctors told me they could do nothing for me. Thanks to Mrs. Pink ham's advice and medicine I am novr well, and can do the work for eight in the family. I would recommend Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to all mothers with large families.”—Mrs. j Carrie 1>ellevii.i.k, Ludington, Mich. CATHOLIC EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM.

Senor Gomez said in substance that the blaek blood in his veins made him opposed to the Amerieans, intimating that their treatment of his race stamp ed them as unfriendly to the negro. "I would rather lie under the sov ereignty of Spain."’ he exclaimed, "than under that e>f tin- I'nited States. The Platt atnendnie'nt endangers the independence- of Cuba.

Uaily ltmnebee Ioukna AUGUSTA LOCALS. FLOOD RECEDES. River Banks Are Emerging from the Muddy Kennebec. Fires Have Been Rebuilt in Seme cf the Water Street Plants. Central Condition Along the Kennebec North ol '.he City. The Kennebec is receding and every body expects that it will reach some where its normal condition before many days. The water is relinquishing it;; hold on the cellars, coal sheds aiul wharves, leaving behind a liberal dona tion of mud and debris. The basements on the east side of Water street will 1. damp for seine time but the proprietors are so glad to nee the water depart that any little aft r effect doesn’t trouble them much. The damage caused by the flood in this city will reach well into the hun dreds, but it is nothing compared to what might have happened had not the merchants foies; cn a rise and removed their stocks to places of safety. At 6 T. Jl. yesterday, the water below the' dam was about four feet lower than Tuesday evening and was till go ing down. The pilings of the steam boat wharf were several feet above the surface and the iron fence benind the post oflice was well out of water. A number cf the Water street basements were clear of water. At the dam the water was falling slowly all clay, and, at 6.30 last evening, the height at the dam was S feet. 3 in ches. making a fall of 10 inches from the highest point reached. The water was still tailing slowly and the mill will probably be able to resume opera tions within a day or two. The water was still bringing down more or less of drift wood, logs, etc., yesterday, which was being quickly landed on the banks if it once came within reach of the men and boys with pick poles. It has been a severe' freshet and every day some new story of damage has been found. The stone wall which runs along under the City hotel and which was in rather bad shape before the flood, is full of holes and needs re pointing and in some places rebuilding. The earth under and around the wall at the City building has caved in and washed away, necessitating consul* r abie work. A quantity of pressed hay, valued at from $200 to $400. stored in the base ment under the Postal Telegraph of fice, is saturated with water. It be longs to J. it. Norton. A great deal of money and labor will have to be laid out on the country roads which are in wretched condition. Culverts have fallen and deep gulches have been washed out in the roads. A party of lumbermen recently started for the drive of the Augusta Lumber Co., stituated at the head waters of the Kennebec. They encountered places in the road where the water was sev ereal feet deep and were obliged to turn around and give up the idea of reach ing the drive for a time. Purinton Pros, were able to put their heating plant in working operation, yesterday, and other places which have been without tires were equally fortu nate. The lumbermen fear that they will nut have suctyssnul drives, this sea son. it would be folly to attempt log driving while the water is at the pres ent pitch and it is feared that whet) the river reachi^i its normal pfenditiun that tlie streams will be very>’tow, as the heavy and constant rain$,nave taken away most of the snow.' Having ndj snow banks to fall back on many logs may be left high and dry, although of course it will depend on the amount of rainfall, later in the season. At midnight, the water below the dam was steadily receding. It had gon down almost a foot since G o'clock. Re ports from uii river show the water to he falling and no more rise of any con sequeiKc seems probable at Augusta. A flying trip on the afternoon ex press to Waterville oml return on the Yankee was taken by a Journal man, yesterday, and proved well worth Up time. The water below the dam shows the greatest falling off. as the s feet or ro Mowing over the Edwards Co’s. dan. makes a sufficiently stirring scene to call it at freshet pitch. From the bridge to Five Mile island train No. 11 made its usual speed, the track being in good shape and not af fected by> the flood. Just below the is land speed was reduced almost to a snail's pace, and well it might be. for along a space of several rods the gravel bank loosened by the rain and under mined by the river water has cracked away for many feet, in some places having slid down and leaving the sleepers over the edge and in other places being apparently willing to take a river bath at any moment. A crew "f men is at work and will soon have it in shape. One or two smaller slides were no ticed between that point and Riverside, hut of little consequence and had been easily repaired. At Riverside was the worst slide. The embankment had gone liverward for many feet and the track had been bodily moved to the eastward. Pass ag“ at any of these points is absolutely safe, or the trains would not be al lowed to run. but to be on the safe side they are kept at a low rate of speed. A'o other slides or breaks were noticed between Riverside and Waterville. n approaching Riverside a great amount of drift ice and refuse was a^en. apparently having come down from some good sized jam on the upp Kennebec. It was strung out over a stretch of some 2 miles or more and commenced to pass this city about f> 0 clock. None of the Ice was large enough to do much harm. All along the river were seen places 0,1 the banks where good sized slides had taken place into the river. In neatly all the low places which had j"*”n or were overflowed were heaps of ir“ and debris. The view of the falls at Waterville Jvas the cause of every car window be herbomania. CONDITION PREVALENT AMONG PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM BODILY WEAKNESS. They Crave the Ilealth OlTinp Power of the Plants and Herbs of tho Fields—Like the Greeks. Smith's Croon mountain Renovator the Croat Strength-Citing Itlrdl* elneof the Hay-made or Pure Herb*. Herbomania may not be exactly correct from a medical standpoint, but it expresses a condition which ought to exist in men and women suffering from bodily weakness. The Greeks were strong and vigorous. We read of their “culling the potent herbs.” 1 hey believed in their cur ative power. Smith's Green Mountain Inno vator is made of pure, wholesome herbs of wonderful strength-giving virtue. Thousands have been made strong by using this great Bonv IUti.der. Xo state is more noted for the strengthening powers of its native herbs than Vermont. Are you all out of sorts, nervous, despon dent, without energy or zest for life’s battle? Do you feel you need and must have strength Take Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator. You will have Strength. ing crowded withN passengers while those who were crowded out gazed with interest at the new iron foot bridge and its middle pier which was badly damaged by the ice. The leight of the water in the river from here to Watcrvillo can be illus trated by saying that the line of piers northeasterly from Five .Mile island were just out of water, while those on tin* southwest corner projected perhaps 3 feet and were covered with ice which had been left there when the water Wilt; higher. THE PRISONER ESCAPED Man Arrested by Deputy Sheriff Ware. Charged With Stealing Harness. Deputy Sheriff Forrest K. Ware of North Whiteficld. was in tile eity, yes terday. looking for a ntan charged with stealing a harness from North White field parties. He located the man he wanted all right and arrested him. but the alleged thief took French leave, and. last night, was at large. The man wanted had been at work for Harry Lishness for about three weeks on the wood lot on the Togus road. Sheriff Ware arrested him there and as he seemed perfectly willing to go did not watch his prisoner very closely. The officer waited until his man got a shave and cleaned up generally and then the two walked down Water street. Mr. Ware stopped for a few moments to talk with a friend and meanwhile the prisoner disappeared. The Augusta police were notified to be on the look out for him. It is said that the alleged thief claimed that the affair was all the re sult of a joke and his arrest was more a matter of spite than anything else. AMUSEMENTS, -Across the Trail.” The Patton Stock Company played “Across the Trail” in the Opera house, Jast evening', before a large audience. The scene is laid in the West, and like most Western plays is full of life and movement with a thread of love run ning through it. The parts were well taken and the company is meeting with very good success here. Goldwin Patton as Sheriff Hill Wil liams carried out the part of (lie rough kind-hearted Westerner to perfection, while W. G. Hal four was equally ai home as Robert Hawley, the man of culture and as Hone Rear, hi* f of the Indians. Lawrence Wakefield as Ih'ze kiah Brown, the deacon, convulsed the audience with his “verily, verilee while Harry Rowley was equally amus ing in his Irish part and in the special ties. The work of Theo V. Rennie as Lenard Brown and James Dickson, its Hank Frederick, the two villains of the play, were excellent. Violet Barney as Reckless Nell met with great success and received much applause. Helen Dodge as Winoeta won many favorable comments, while Leila Davis as Susa Fredoieks, a rough woman of the plains, added much to the amusement of the audience. The specialties were very good. The fact that a diamond ring was to be presented to one of the ladies pres ent caused many people to look for ward with great interest to the an nouncement at the end of the third act. Miss Mildred Gleason was the lucky lady and received the valuable ring. The matinee, this afternoon, will he “Streets of New York," and. this even ing. the company will present tiie “Three Musketeers." Billy R. Van's Minstrels.

People on the street saw the blaze and someone pulled in the alarm. The whistle sounded but once and then, ■ts one of the ilrcmon expressed it, "something broke" and the whistle sounded no more and the Cushnoc in dicator failed to register. The Cushnoes responded, after being notified by a messenger where the lire was, but found that their services were but lit tle needed. No water was used. Chief engineer Ricker was searching, last night, to ascertain the trouble with the alarm system. MRS. HALL WILL FIGHT. Begins Suits to Secure Her Share ol the Gilman Millions. Hartford, Conn..

Almost a Riot Prccipilatel at Mcmonice. III., by Gipsies' Outlandish Practices. Chicago, April 10.—A special to the Tribune from Kankakee, Ills., says lire sale of two girls, members of a gypsy bawl at M-.moniee, this county. Wednesday, brought on a riot that for a time threatened serious trouble. So angry were the citizens over the traf fic that a mob was formed which drove i lie gypsy band from town. The deal which caused the trouble was the sale of Juanita Costello and Margot Czech, 12 and 17 years old, by their guardians, Nicholas Karoptkinn, a Russian, to a IJrazilian, also a mem ber of the band, the price paid being fSOO. The girls refused to recognize the sale and threatened their prospective master. The Brazilian then swore out a war rant for Karoptkinn's arrest, charging the obtaining of money by false p’c tenses. A squad of police was found neces sary to secure the Russian, who drew a revolver on tlie officers. The failure to secure an interpreter made it impos sible to get evidence against the pris oner and he was discharged. Ruling the trial before Magistrite Lloyd, the mob gathered. Threats of lynching and of tar and feathers w.-ie made. The gypsies hastily packed up their belongings and fled.

A Time for Confidence and Counsel. When the children's hour is a thins of the far away past, because there are no more little ones to have their eve ning frolic or bed-time story, the hour once devoted to them becomes the mother's hour. It is an hour in which the young woman takes her old place at her mother’s knee ns she was wont when she listened to the evening story. But now she tells the story to the mother; the story of her day, her feats, her hopes, her Ideals. Happy is that daughter who can come to her mother as her best friend, as sure of her com passion as of her counsel. medical advice, but the advice of a kuy letter free of charge.

Women in general anil young wo men in particular express their ap preciation of the privilege offered by Ibis free consultation by letter with Dr. Pierce, not only lie-cause his pro fessional advice is supplemented by his wise fatherly ouiisei. but because it affords them a way of escape from the indelicate fiuestionings, the offensive ex- aminatlons and obnoxious local treat- i monts. which offend the- delicate sotisi- t bilities of modest women, \ciite without fear as without fee. to Dr. it.

In accordance with the time-honored custom of our forefathers, made sacred by observance through many generations, with the advice and consent of the Ex ecutive Council. I hereby appoint Thurs day, the twenty-fifth day of April, as a day of FASTING AND PRAYER. Let the day be observed in a manner befitting the purposes to which it has been consecrated. In oar homes and in the accustomed places of public wor ship. let us with grateful hearts yield reverent acknowledgment to Almighty God for the innumerable blessings which we have received, and for His many ten der mercies toward us; and invoking a continuance of the Divine favor, let us implore His guidance and aid in our fu ture undertakings. Given at the Executive Chamber in Au gusta. this second day of April, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and one. and of the Indepen dence of the United States of America the one hundred and twenty-fifth. JOHN F. HILL. Hy the Governor. BYIiON BOYI). Secretary of State. This summer will find seven deter mined Arctic expeditions push ng northward. Here's to the success of Peary. The second wrecking of the Mot t i nt,i c in the Santiago channel, this time with dynamite, was not uuite so spectacular as the first one. but it was much more effective. How graceful and fitting was the addresy of President McKinley at th»* unveiling of the Logan sfatuo. Few m«n have ever been more felicitous in their public utterances than our pres ent Chief Executive. Such a freshet as New England has just experienced has Us good results which go far to offset the loss and the destruction. Not the least of these good results is a thorough Hushing of the sewers try the heavy rain at the time when public health most de mands it, and a thorough washing and cleaning of the river banks whore a great amount of unwholesome muter has accumulated during tlv long nut ter. The dor tors are among the worst sufferers by the heavy spring rains. The Boston Journal tells a good story at the expense of the Hub's •‘anti-imperialistic" junta. They thought that they had a great prize in George T. Bice, the editor who was deported from Manila, and ’hey telegraphed him at Bed Wing, Minn., to come to Boston to speak in Fan euil Hall. But Mr. Bice took the precaution answering: “Am not against administration; can only toll the truth." Thereupon the 1'.os ton brethren telegraphed: "Probably j better not come." “The truth" was not what they wanted. It has not been in their line from the beginning. A Pennsylvania judge who is more of a stickler for equity than most men on the bench or off it, recently sued a street car company becVuse he was carried a block beyond his corner, though he plainly told the conductor to stop at the desired point. He won his case and no doubt the satisfaction of his victory was worth rather more than the 10 cents which the jury gave him as damages. We do not know the birthplace of this wearer of the ermine, but we have little doubt that his an cestors were from England. It may be he was born there. The true English man has a trick of kicking until he gets his rights, even in the most tri lling matters. It is not a pleasant ti lit when over-developed, but a certain de gree of it js most desirable and advan tageous. There is no doubt that the average American is the best natured individual in the world. He is often too patient and indulgent of wrongs and abuses, and because he regards it as too much bother to defend his rights in trifling personal matters, he often fails to enter his protest in more im portant public matters when the wel fare of his city or state demands a vigorous kick. Fault-finding of the right kind is not a bad thing by means. any lhis Summer’s Exposition. In throe weeks the ran-Aniorlcnn ex position will open at Buffalo anti the management promires to break all records by having everything in readi I r.ers for the opening. To be on the safe aide, however, they have named May 20, three weeks later, as the dedi action day. The energy with which Buffalo is going' into this enterprise is shown by the fact that the citlxens are putting their hands into their pockets to make up the $500,000 which Congress, contrary to expectations, failed to add to the sums previously appropriated. The exposition was con ceived on a broad scale and has born developed along the original lines so that it promises to be interesting to the hundreds of thousands who ''ill visit it and valuable to the countries participating. About $6,000,000 is be ing expended on the exposition 1 fsell and half as much more on the midway and tile popular features. Thanks to the energy and public spirit of the e>i.ite Board of Trade, -Maine will contribute its part to the New Bngland building. The exposition was undertaken for the purpose of exhibiting the products and progress of the western hemis phere and to stimulate trade between all the countries comprised in that geographical division. The exhibits will represent the United States, British America, the West Indies, our new island possessions and the states of South and Central America. Among the noteworthy buildings are those de voted to the line arts, music, electric ity, horticulture, transportation, manu factures and the liberal arts, agrie jl ture, forestry and mines, machinery, 1 ethnology and the United States gov ernment building. The exhibits illus trating our industrial and inventive progress will be comprehensive, and es pecial efforts to render the electrical displays complete and interesting have been made. One of the notunic features will be an Indian congress, which will assemble 500 red men from tribes, and depict all phases of In dian life. The United States govern ment will be represented by exhibits from tile National museum. Smithson ian institution, bureau of American republics, the fish commission, and the departments of state, treasury, war. navy, justice, postofliee. in terior, labor and agriculture. The ex position will open on May 1 and close November 1. Special programs have been nrovided for opening day. May 1; for dedication day. May 20, and President's day. about June 10. Progress in Por’.o Rico. The denial of the rumor that Gov ernor Allen of Porto Itieo was about 11• resign his position is welcome ne'.vs. The story was without foundation and doubtless had its origin in the present visit of Governor Allen to this coun try to confer with the President and pay a brief visit to his Massachu setts home. It is coni ceded by till that in Governor Allen the President made a most wise appointment, and that he canot easily lie spared from the important post where he admin isters affairs so well. In an interview Governor Allen de lla res that he can see only the most hop'fid outlook for the island. He says the people are conducting their local government on American lines, and he Is satisfied that an examination of their legislation and management of affairs will show their capacity for self government. Governor Allen says that Porto Itieo is a garden spot for agricultural products, and instances sugar, the crop of which for this year will r*uch 100,000 tons, as against a nominal yield of 40,000 tons. He says that the sugar growers of the island, by reason ot the special tariff, have in ihe United States market an advantage of $.15 a ton over other growers, which will be increased when the IS per cent, duty is abandoned. The gover nor says that he has looked all over the island, but has not yet found the starvation of which reports are vague ly made in this country, but he admits that in the coffee district there nas been considerable financial distress, which he attributes to the destruction of property by the hurricane two years ago. The temporary arrangement of the 13 per cent, tariff to provide revenue for the administration of the island af fairs is working well, and is in no way the oppressive burden that calam itvites within our borders prophesied it would be. The collection of this is limited to March. IIHjl.’. and may be sooner abolished if the insular legis laturo provides any other means of taising revenue. The Americanization of the island is going on rapidly and the people are coining to appreciate the blessings of our Hag and the significance of their allegiance to it. 1 A hand from out of the people was recently raised against me, to my in tense sorrow.

Law Court Decisions. Kennebec, ss. Emerson et als. vs. Shores. Rescript by Whltehouse. J. It ts elementary knowledge fiat plowing timber forms a part of the ical'.ty anil like any other part of the estate may be separated from the rest by express reservation or grant: that even when so separated it retains its distinctive character as an incident of real property so long as it remains nn cut: hut when cut and severed 'rom the soil it becomes personal property to which title may be acquired as in case of other chattels by simple con tracts either oral or written. It has accordingly become settled law under the decisions of this court and by the great weight of authority elsewhere, that parol or simple contracts for the sale of growing wood or timber. o be cut and removed from the land by the purchaser, are not to be construed as intended by the parties to convey any interest in land, but as executory contracts for the sale of the timber after it shall have been severed tram the soil and converted into chattel property, together with a license to en ter upon the land for the purpose of cutting and removing it. It Is equally well settled that while the license to enter and cut timber thus created by parol or simple contracts is irrevocable as to that part of the timber which has been severed from the land in execution of the contract, yet while it remains executory, as to the wood or timber not yet severed from the land it is revocable not only at the will of the owner, but by his death or by his conveyance of the land without reservation. Judgment for the plaintiffs for one hundred dollars. Rec’d April 9th, 1901. Sagadahoc Co. Murphy vs. Delano anil trustees. Rescript by Whitehouse, J. It is obvious that the deed of tiust between the trustees and the certui quo trust in the case at bar was not in conformity with the provisions of the will. True, the trustees were author ized by the testator to turn over the whole estate to Samuel E. Delano after he became thirty years of age. if in their judgment it would be for the best interest of Samuel and his heirs “for him to have possession and con trol of the whole of said residue. Rut 't appears from the terms of the trust deed that in their judgment it was not for his interest to have con trol of the entire property, for the deed continues in the trustees control of $25,000 of the estate and attempts to protect the income payable to Samuel E. against either alienation by him or attachment by creditors. Rut the stipulation whereby Samuel became absolutely entitled to receive one fourth of the income quarterly, is not in conformity with theterms of the trust, and if held operative would have the ef fect to defeat the manifest purpose of the testator by making this income subject to the claims of creditors. Tim trust should have been administered by the trustees in accordance with the directions of the testator. The law wtll not permit it to bo destroyed by a separate indenture between the trustees and the certui que trust. 'Trustees discharged. Rec’d April 9th. liKd. James Hawthorne of Richmond, is one of the elderly men of Sagadahoc county who has a record to be proud of. He was employed by one concern as an engineer for ."7 years, and during that time was absent from his work hut 11 days. Assist Nature.
