Kineo, Me., July 7.—(Special).— "To see the glorious sunset of Satur day when we came up the lake has paid me for my trip to Kineo,” said M. J. Googin of Lewiston, this morn ing, as he stood upon the piazza of the big Kineo house conversing with a party of friends. "Yes. that was a gorgeous sunset,” remarked Judge Louis Stearns of Hangor, “but you have forgotten our trip to the mountain top. yesterday morning, when we climbed that great hill of rock and from its summit gazed with wondering eyes upon the beautiful panorama spread before us. That was a sight I shall remember all my life, and 1 shall never regret that I made in*- ascent. These quoted expressions are spe* i i'iens of what one hears at every hand. Those who have been at Kineo before still think it the most delightful spot on earth: those here for the first time are certainly most favorably impressed with the magnificent scenery of lake and mountain and forest and above all else with the hotel, its service and its appointments. Kineo is one of Maine's beauty spots, and its marvellous at tractions are growing more pleasing as they become more generally known. N’o one who has any appreciation of the beauties of nature can come to Moosehead hike and fail to be pleased with the prospect which opens to his view as soon as he lands upon the wharf at Greenville and steps on board the steamer Katahdin for the trip to Kineo. It is 20 miles up the lake and the steamer makes the trip in one hour and a half. The shores of the lake on either side are covered with dense foli age coming down to the edge of tin water. and in the background tower ing mountains raise their green-crested tops high in air. >1*1 Chalrback, I laker, the I,ly I:ay mountains, and fur in the distance Mt. Katahdin are seen. The steamer's route passes between Sugar island on the right and Deer island on the left. The former comprises 5000 acres of territory anil is owned by M. il. Shaw of Hath. Deer island is owned by the ‘'open family, one of whom is landlord Henry E. t’apen of the Au gusta house. The islands contains 2500 acres and a goodly portion is cleared. commodious hotel, built by tlic late Aaron t'.ipen, occupies a charming position near the h- ad of the island. The steamer made a landing for Mr. I 'ar>en and his family, who were on th way to their amp at the island, where they are to remain during the summer. Several people came to the wharf to see the steamer come in, for this is an event of no little importance to the visitors anil the natives alike. And then on up the lake for the last half of the course. The sun was set ting in crimson glory as Kineo was reached. •"commissioner t’arleton and Librarian Carver on their European trip may have the pleasure of seeing m Italian sunset, but it is doubtful if they will beho'd a more entrancing sight than Saturday night's sunset was to th«* m« ml>» rs of the* Maine Sports men's excursion party now happily so journing hen*. A faithful description js beyond ini' wriitrs power. imi ui" expressions of intense delight which came from every lip as the travellers look'd in awe and wonder upon the picture will never l>e forgotten. Sunday was a glorious day and the guests enjoyed themselves in various ways. Many climbed the mountain, some went boating, others drove to the farm. *i half dozen miles away, and others, more inclined to inactivity, sat upon tltc broad verandas of tile hotel and lounged tin* pleasant hours away. fill. John M. Glidden of Newcastle, accompanied by his wife, son and daughter, is in the party. Col. Glidden made bis initial visit to Moost head lake IS years ago and ttiis is the first time he litis been here since. “I rattle here as a boy,” said the genial nlonel. “and 1 drove all til*’ way to Greenville and back borne again. It war before the railroad had penetrated this part of the State. My father and mother started from Newcastle by team and l came with them. At Au gusta Charles I.ambard and his wife and several other Augusta people joined out- party, and in carriages we made the trip to the foot or the lake, from, which place we came here in boats. There was then a small hotel here, which was used by lumbermen mostly. As I remiember the visit what 1 saw impressed me with favor, hut now I am pleased and delighted with what 1 see here. There is no more charming place in New England or in America even, to my mind.than Moose head lake at Kineo point."

Winter Harbor Has a $10,000 Fire Early Monday Morning. Waterville. Me., July 7.—(Special).— An alarm of lire was rung in from I'.ox r>S at 7.13, Monday evening, for a lire in the building on Main street owned l:y Harvey D. Eaton and occupied by Beach. Scates Co. The fire was the fiercest while it lasted since that in the Friel drug store. The building is a little old one, only about a story and a half high and one of a cluster of wooden buildings. The fire started on the up per floor, the exact cause being un known. as the occupants of the build ing did not know there was a fire over their heads until it was discovered by passersby and the alarm given. In a few Vninutes the whole upper part of the building was a mass of flames. It looked decidedly serious for a time, as there was quite a breeze and the burning building was adjoined on either side by other small wooden structures. The building has been used lor years as a bicycle sales and repair shop and for general machine work, so that there wafe more or less kerosene, gasoline ar.U other oils used in the business about the building and some parts around the workshop were pretty well saturated. This with the old and dry wood made a most favorable loca tion for a very hot blaze. The department made a beautiful run. but the fire had a big start before the water reached it and about the time it did it looked as if nothing could prevent it from spreading to the ad joining buildings and sweeping the cor ner clean. Hut once more the efficiency of the department was demonstrated. It looked as if streams of water sprang up by magi and in a very short time there were nozzles playing onto the building from all directions. It was seen at the start that an abundance of water was the only thing that would i or,oner the fire, and this was given to it with a vengeance. There was a fine head and the powerful streams ripped and tore through the old building in great shape. In lrt minutes after the alarm sounded the fire was under con trol and the “all out" sounded at S.20. Thus in less than an hour a fire that had all the start in the world and the most favorable conditions that could he asked for was dead. It was a very pretty niece of work. The damage was confined almost wholly to the building occupied by the bicycle shop. It did manage to get a foothold in the next building south, which is occupied on tho ground floor by the Watorville Hand Laundry and on the upner floor as a tenement. The fire worked its way through the wall, hut. as it happened, near the water fau cet anti was immediately squelched with that. Some of thf Winter Harbor was seriously threat ened. early this morning, by lire which linally was extinguished after worth of property had been destroyed. The blaze started in Sehoodic Inn.

Boston, July 7.—In a thick fog, the Eastern Steamboat Co’s, steamer Cum berland and the United Fruit Co's, steamer Admiral Farragut were in col lision over Boston light in the harbor, Monday, and the Cumberland in a sink ing condition put back to her dock and landed safely the passengers with whom she had started for Maine ports and St. John, X. B.. only an hour be fore. The Admiral Farragut with bent stern and beam, managed to work up to her berth. After her passengers hail been landed, the Cumberland staggered across the channel to the Atlantic works where she will be repaired. Efforts were made to stop the hole in the Cumberland’s side with bedding and other material and it was hoped to patch her up so that she could go on the ways at high tide. The plans adopted, however, did not work suc cessfully and when the tide came in the steamer filled rapidly and tugs could not float her. At high tide only two feet of her paddlebox were visible. The damage to the cargo will be heavy. The St. Croix will make the Cumber land's return trip from St. John, Wednesday, stopping only at Eastport. One of the other big boats, probably the Penobscot will be assigned to the Cumberland's route while she is under going repairs. It will be five or six weeks before the Cumberland can be ready for service. Surveys will be made on both steam ers and a board of inquiry will deter mine the responsibility for the accident. The loss to the Eastern Steamship Co., including repairs, loss of revenue and other expenses will approach $100, 000. The Farragut wil require a few thousand dollars for repairs. The Cumberland, with 300 or 400 pas sengers on board, left her dock at S.30 o'clock this morning', bound for Port land and Eastport, Me., and St. John. N. 14. It was very foggy and so dense that the captain proceeded with great caution Just after the Cumberland had passed Poston light, the Admiral Farragut loomed up in the mist, close in board, llefore either captain could change his course to avert an accident the Farra gut's bow struck the Cumberland on the starboard side. It was a powerful blow, well forward and penetrated the heavy guard and extended into the berth deck for a distance of la feet, nutting down well below the water line. Through the hole the water rushed in great volume and the forward part of the vessel began to fill rapidly. The donkey engine was set to work and the disabled steamer was immediately turned bank up the harbor. The water gained rapidly on the pumps and the steamer settled slowly, but she made her landing and put ashore al! her passengers ia safety. Seeing the vessel’s danger, two tugs which were going down the channel, turned and stood by to render assist ance in ease of emergency. Having landed all her passengers, the Cumberland made her way across to the East Poston side of the harbor. She was down nearly to the guards and as the tide was unfavorable for her to go on the ways at the Atlantic works, site was run onto the Hats. The officers of the Cumberland say that the passengers behaved splendidly, considering the seriousness of the ne eident and the imminent danger of the vessel's sinking. There was no very great excitement although more or less alarm was felt l>v all on board. The Admiral Farragut reached her berth at Pong wharf shortly after 10 o'clock with her stem crushed in and stem plates buckled. The damage to (he fruiter, however, is all forward of the collision bulkhead and consequently no water gained access to the eprgo of fruit in the holds. The officers of the Farragut place the entire responsibility for the collision upon the steamer Cum berland. Captain \v. bong. wno is temporarily in command of the vessel during the absence at Captain Hopkins, the regu lar captain, stated that owning to a dense fog she anchored below Ifoston light at 3.13 A. M. About 9 o’clock the steamer started at. a slow speed. Off (he light. Captain Long deseerned about 100 feet away, the Cumberland approaching, apparently at full speed. The latter vessel blew two blasts of her whistle and Captain Txrng states that his steamer was sounding one blast at frequent intervals, which is customary in case of fog. As soon as the Cumberland was ob served, Captain bong signalled the engineer for full sjeed astern and the Farragut was moving slightly in that direction when the Cumberland rushed do.vn on hon government ships. It is the intention to start the work ing out of the detail plans immediate ly and in the course of about eight months the keel plates will be laid at the New York yard for the new battle ship. THE PRESIDENT Plays Tennis With Children—Anxious Caller Misses Seeing Him. Oyster Bay, L. I., July 7.—President Roosevelt did not come to town, today, but spent most of the time in playing i tennis with the children. Secretaries 'or tel you and Loeb drove to Oyster i Bay to prepare temporary- executive offices. The first official caller on Piosidenti Roosevelt on Sagamore Hill since his, arrival here was Rev. John Hay Cush ing, a Catholic priest of Denver, Colo who went there, today, to file a com- i plaint against Ambassador Meyer, at j Rome. Cushing claims that he and 28 other I priests were driven out of the Denver, diocese by Bishop Matz for no other reason than their failure to vote for j him for the bishopric. H<‘ said he was j the fourth to go. Protests were sent j to Rome and latrr the 29 priests as well as Bishop Matz went there to! state their ease before the Vatican. The. flight has continued without success over since 1SS8. In 1901. Bishop Matz is alleged to h ive had Pushing arrested in Rome f<»r forcing himself into his presence, and it is said Cushing was put in jail by the Italian authorities, who openly ad mitted that it was in retaliation for the lynching of Italians in New fir leans. He claims he was treated to great indignities, and that Ambassador Meyer and Consul De Castro were neg ligent in protecting him as an Ameri can citizen. Cushing elaims further that three Xew York men furnished Riahop Maiz with $30,000 with which to fight the priests in their claims to restoration to ecclesiastical functions. When Dr. Cushing called the Presi dent was not at home, but he left cer tain papers and will return here. Thursday. “FAIR TREATMENT" Secured, It Is Charged, by Money Given Customs Appraisers. Washington. July 7.—Secretary of tlie Treasury Shaw has si t an Inipilry on foot to ascertain whether it will be worth while to Investigate the allegations mad by H. C. Corsn. formerly of the apprais er's department, district of New \ork. concerning the alleged payment of money to customs inspectors at New York by the American Sugar Refining Co.

Wretched Hot Weather Sufferers. Paine's Celery Compound SHOULD BE USED IN JULY AND AUGUST. The extraordinary variable spring and early summer weather of the pre sent year has been the cause of a vast amount of sickness in every part of our country. Strong men and women have been victims; the weak, rundown and sickly have suffered, intensly, and many families now mourn the loss or near and dear ones. The nervous, weak, rundown apd debilitated should now devote their best energies and attention to health-build ing so as to enable them to withstand Hie enervating effects of the approach ing hot weather. The use of Paine's Celery Compound will soon bring a return of true physic al strength: the nerves will be fed and braced; the blood will lie made purer and richer, digestion will lie corrected, and sweet, refreshing sleep will take the place of insomnia and irritability. Paine's Celery Compound is doing a marvelous work for the skk and suffer ing at this time. It is the only prepara tion that possesses value and virtue for recruiting the strength and spent energies of weakly and sick people in summer time. The trial of one bottle will give you happy results. THE NINTH WEEK Of the Miners Strike Opened Quietly at Wilkesbarre. WilUesbarre. Pa.. July 7.—The ninth week of the anthracite coal miners* strike opened extremely quiet. Condi tions around the collieries remain un changed. The strikers of this district, which is composed of all the territory from For est City 20 miles north of Scranton, to Shiekshinny, Ifi miles south of her", were Interested in the annual conven tion which opened at Nantieoke, Mon day. The meeting in point of numbers is the largest in the history of the dis trict. As far as is known no very im portant business will come before the convention. Pres. Nicholls is sure of a unanimous re-election, as also most of the other officers. Vice President Ituscavage and Sec. Dempsey arc being opposed for re-elec tion. Pres. Mitchell’s sudden departure for New York. Sunday, continues to excite interest among the miners here. Out side of a statement made by one of his lieutenants. Sunday night, that the miners’ elder went to New York for tile purpose of seeing labor leaders, no information can be had here as to the exact purpose of Mr. Mitchell's trip. FOR INCITING RIOT. Warrants Sworn Out. Monday, for 10 Strikers at Williamstown. Harrisburg, Pa.. July 7.—Sheriff TteifT swore out warrants, Monday, for the arrest of 10 strikers at Williamstown. this county, for inciting to riot and in terfering- with his deputies in protect Ins non-union men going to and from work in the mines at Lukeria and Wil liamstown. The sheriff says the situation in the region is critical anil that if there is another outbreak like that of last Wednesday, when he and his deputies were assaulted while protecting non union minors, he will call upon Gov. Stone for protection by the militia. Twenty of the rioters were arrested, Thursday, at Williamstown, and held in bail for court, but this does not seem to have improved the situation and the sheriff concluded to bring suit here and compel the rioters to come to Harrisburg for a hearing. The sheriff came hero. Monday morning, to make information against the rioters and re turned to the Lukens region at noon to assist his deputies in arresting the strikers for whom warrants have been issued. T)r. Charles Kendall Adams, former president of the University of Wiscon sin. is so seriously ill at his home at Redlands. Cal., that there is little hope if his recovery. WAITT BOND BLACKSTON C I O A RS The constantly widening breach in the sales between the Waitt A Bind Blackstone and all other ten-cent Cigars is not caused by luck, but by real merit, brought about by the following conditions: Clear Havana filter, bought direct in the island of Cuba by our own buyer. Finest Imported Sumatra Tobacco for a Wrapper. Best of skilled Union Workmanship, under the closest expert super vision, in the cleanest and lightest Factory in New England, under perfect sanitary conditions. These facts are what have won the confidence and admiration of the smoking public, who have placed the Waitt A Bond Blackstone on a pedestal so high that, today, it stands alone in sales and quality.

Would letters Only —and 1iderful people logit al breathing place for the of Augusta, who turn from the fogs and damps and stickiness of tie sea side to the deep, sweet seclusion! of the woods and the quiet of the placid lake; who love to lie in the swinging hum mocks beneath the soughing pines, or revel in the delights of the mosit sub lime sunsets that were ever let down from heaven to give the poor, tired dwellers of this lower world a glimpse of supernal glory. Never at this time of the year was C'obbosscecontee so "full.'' I mean it in a temperance sense, as the fullness is caused entirely by water, and that is the element we bank on here. Many of the bank walls, built at considerable expense, have been damaged by'wash ings, and there is some talk of bringing suits for damages against the Water Company at Gardiner. And they have a cause which would appeal forcibly to a jury. There have been great changes, en largements and improvements at Hammond's Grove—the head of the lake—since last season. The first new cottage to be finished, but which was begun last year, v.as that of Mr. John 1 V. Lane, the gentlemanly and ac complished postmaster of Augusta, whose love of the lake is ardent and sirn-t re. Mr. and Mrs. Lane were the 1 architects of their beautiful little story and a half cottage, which stands near the upper edge of the grove, em bowered by stately pines, maples, 1 beeches and cedar. The cottage is 22 by 2*i feet, containing on the first floor parlor or living room, dining-room and kitchen. In the second story are three light and airy sleeping rooms. The fine open fireplace in the living room dispenses cheer on cool days and chilly evenings. There is a gable roof, and a wide veranda on two sides. From this splendid wooded view is afforded, as well as an extended view of the lake. It i in every respect an ideal resting plac to which Mr. Lane flees with quickening footsteps front the cares of business. Tin* name given to the cot- luge is "Wranglewood,” suggested by a 1 debate over the matter of selecting a proper name. Hon. Heron Boyd is erecting the most expensive cottage here, and C. B.

Ellis. HEROIC SNAP SHOOTING. Big Game Hunting with Photographic Plate and Lens. Lord Delamere’s party one day set out to find a man-eating lion. The photographer rode a pony, which also carried the camera, and other ap paratus. They were then on the Uganda road, in a district appropriate ly called the Camp of Lions. As they were going along, the shikari leading, and all eyes looking straight ahead for lions, a magnificent brute put his head around a bush and glared inquiringly at the party. The photographer's first thought was, “What a fine picture he will make!” and, tumbling oft his pony and fixing up his camera at a distance of 150 yards, he proceeded to focus the man eater—for such he was. The lion, still peering round the bush, watched these proceedings with evi dent amazement, but when the photographer hid his head under the cloth the brute grew uneasy. Proba lily the photographer did the same. Anyhow, he got the picture. The- lion's intentions were harmless enough. He merely wished to change his position, evidently thinking he would make a better picture in profiler All he did was to look around the other side of the bush, whereupon he was j promptly “snapped” again, j Then he strolled in a leisurly sort of way toward the photographer, who prepared to run, his eye fixed on the nearest tree. But the lion was only anxious to see what sort of a machine it was through which the white man had been looking at him. Satisfied on this point, he turned round abruntly and made off, the photographer "tak ing'' him again as he retreated. 1 It was also this member of Lord Relamere’s expedition who was pluck i ily—one might without offence say im pndentty—photographing a rhinocerou at short range, when the angry brut tossed the camera in the air an' smashed into matchwood. The photo grapher happily escaped unhurt.—Lon don Mail. Salt Lake City is about to lose one o its landmarks.

the colonial premiers Congratulate Cape Colony on Theii Self-Government Victory. I/iwlon. July 7.—Speaking at differ ent banquets in London, tonight, tin colonial premiers now assembled here congratulated the empire and Sir Johr Gordon Sprigs, prime minister of Capi Colony, on the victory for constitu tional government gained in that colony by the der ision of the imperial government against the proposal to suspend the Cape constitution. The premiers also referred with great regret to the accident to Joseph Chamberlain. Edmund Barton, prime minister of the Australian Federation, said he felt gure that every self-governing portion of the empire had been in sympathy with .Sir John Gordon Spriggs, who had fought so strenuously against the sus pension of the Cape constitution, as otherwise the colonies could not have ()oen so enthusiastic in helping the empire in the South African war. Mr. Barton advised his hearers not to ex pect too much, especially in the way of written bonds, from the colonial conference. Nevertheless, he quid the outcome of the conference will be the strengthening of the empire. Sir John Gordon Bpt igg, speaking at the same banquet, thanked the other colonial premiers for having helped him to tight the battle of constitu tionalism. He expressed the greatest satisfaction with the manner in which the rebels are laying down their arms in Cape colony and the progress towards peace and pacification. THE IMPERIAL DEFENCE If Delayed Might Soon Find No Em pire to Defend. London, July 7.—Presiding at the annual meeting here, today, of the British Kni|>ire League, the Duke of Devonshire, (lord president of the council and leader of the Liberal rnionists), discussing the conferences ut the colonial premiers, said the iiuestion of imperial defense was para mount. The question of imperial com mercial relations will solve itself at no distant day. In accordance with pconimic laws which will inevitably assert themselves and which he did not think would prevent any obstacle in the consummation of that which they all must desire, namely free trade or the nearest approach to free trade within every portion of the em pire. Imperial defence, however, could not wait. If they waited for it lo solve itself they might wait until then- was no British empire to de test!. STANDS WILL REMAIN.

B i1 “The richest mines I ever Saw” and I am well acquainted with the Lead Districts of the State,” is what the Hon. Dorsey W. Shackleford. Represen tative in Congress from Jefferson City, Missouri, writes re gurding the property of the Standard Lead and Smelting Co., known as the Richest Lead Mines in America. 5 Per Cent. Quarterly 1 Is the dividend rate now being paid by the Company, and It is a matter of only a few months before this seemingly high rate will be increased by extra dividends. Many Conservative New England Investors, people who think twice before they act, have personally In spected the company’s property and plant. They have taken prominent experts and engineers with them to make report. In practically every instance they have invested twice as much as they at first contemplated. C. W. Wood, lawyer, Worcester, Mass., personajly examined every detail, and reported: “I can Con ceive of nothing except the grossest mismaniigement or dis honesty that can prevent that mine from turning out |3«6. 000 annually at an expense of less than 150,000.” E. GOSS, of Wilder, Vt., J. E. Dewey, of Lebanon, N. H., and R. D. CHadbournc, of Hartford, Vt. visited the property to make personal examination. They wrote: “Every opportunity was given us to make fulled in vestigation. That dividends can be maintained at present rate is an assured fact.” C. A. Middlemass, business man, Worcester, Mass., visited the property, and reported: “The stock Will without question pay a dividend of 30% annually. It is the cleanest and fairest mining: deal I ever looked into.” Ivar L. Sjostrom, civil engineer, Lawrence, Mass., made expert report: "Ore equal in value to considerably more than the capitalisation of the company is already in sight and may he taken from the ground.” Walter T. Foss, Congress Street, Portland, Me., wrote: “The statements made in the company’s prospectus are entirely verified. I am taking all the stock I can.” John D. LeBarron, Elm Street, Biddeford, Me., wrote: “I am satisfied that you have one of the largest de posits of lead and sine ore j.'i found in the earth.” Chas. H. W. Wood, Roxbury, Mass., reported: “We return from this trip satisfied that the claims of the company are substantiated, and that the mana gers are gentlemen of ability and enterprise, and are thor oughly reliable." The above named are only a very few of the reference* which can be given you. Investigation from any standpoint will satisfy you that we have understated the earning possibilities of the investment. The superior quality of the ore is attracting the attention of nil mining men. The amount now’ In sight and being taken from the ground is between $4,000,000 and $6,000,000. Borings In dicated five times as much more. Stock will probably be withdrawn from sale inside 30 days.

The time in the year has come for the annual campaign against bugs by the careful housewife. Not bugs that make folks look as though they had the measles, but common ordinary hungry Buffalo bugs that tuk“ particular de light in gnawing the vitals from last winter’s best set of furs. In this cam paign benzine anrl other so-called exter minators are being used with great freedom and it’s a wonder that there hasn’t been an explosion or two to mark the battle up to now. Insurance companies have taken the matter up and are warning agents to discourage anything of this sort that may come under their notice. It’s dan gerous. they say, very dangerous, and even though benzine is considered the most harmless of any sort of these fluids it is foolish to try to handle it. Explosions ;ire frequent from careless managing and there have been many cases where lives have been lost. Bangor has had a startling example of the destructive power of the explo sives through the explosion in East Market square last October when three persons were burned to death. Benzine or naptha or gasolene—they are all .practically of the same elements, was the cause of this and the same thing is likely to oecur again in any place where the liquid is being used without the precautions taken that are known only to those who have had long experi ence. It has been suggested by some that spraying clothing in a trunk with an atomizer loaded with benzine is a very simple and sure way of ridding the cloth of Buffalo bugs. It's a good way i to get rid of Buffalo bugs, yes, and it's j a good way to get rid of all the family and the house and everything else. There's very little in this world in the sh.dpe of trouble that benzine and its cousins can't kick up And they take the opportunity when people have their I eyes shut. There's likely to be something in the nature of a hot rise in insurance rates i in the city if the epidemic for spraying with benzine spreads. Insurance com panies don't care to carry extra hazards at regular protected property rates anil so some folks might find an interesting t snarl if they became too interested ir thowing benzine around. A special agent has written the fol I lowing as a portion of a letter to his company's agent here: "Try to do a was with the possibility of the housekeepers of Bangor pouring benzine around al over the houses, or putting it intr trunks with an atomizer. If something isn't done and everyone pursues this course, sour Bangor cemeteries will lx too small to hold corpses.” Fraise From Ca-npinari. Staples, Smith Moody have re ceived the following letter from the John Church Co. of New York City, which will he of peculiar interest to those who were fortunate in hearing the noted singer, Signor Campanari, when in Maine. Messrs. Staples, Smith Moody, Augusta, Me.
