Bates Baseball Candidates Start in on Work. No Little Surprise at Bowdoin’s Chaflenge for Oebate. Not Likely That Bates Will Find It Convenient to Accent. Lew iston, Me., Feb. 23.—(Special). Baseball work has begun in the I l ues cage tliis last week. Capl. Kendall is in charge of the work at present aiul will probably be assisted by a profes sional coach later in the season. A good S'tuad is put every day. The men re port in two divisions owing to the lim ited room afforded by the cage. Of the old men there are in college at pres ent, Bowman, catcher, Johnson, pitch er; Kendall, first base; Wight, second base or third; Austin, second or iield; Rogers, left, and a number of men who played in various positions more or less duting the season. Johnson will be with the team as its mainstay in the box as he has been for the past two years. Another pitcher must be devel oped to take the place of Doe, ’05, and there are said to be several candi dates for pitching honors among the freshmen. The challenge sent Feb. 22 by the llowdom Debating Society for a debate with Hates in May was received with great interest at Bates. Prof. Harts horn of the Knglish department is in charge of th matter and a speedy re ply will probably be sent to Bowdoin. The foiling of the Bates students is one of unbounded surprise at Lbe atti tude Bowdoin takes. It is never cus tomary in any sort of a challenge to dictate arms, in fact the choice of "weapons” lies always with the chal lenged party. Bowdoin in her chal lenge. it is understood, specifies the place. .Memorial hall, the date and a long list/of ai tides, including the stip ulation that both teams work up their debate without faculty coaching. These conditions are absurd. The arranging of the place by all means falls to Bates or at least should be left for arrange ment by later conference. Bowdoin, a new aspirant lor honors in the debat ing field of Maine is hardly in a posi tion to dictate to I'.atcs where the de bate shall be held. The matter of the date. too. can properly be settled only in conference, as is the universal cus tom in arranging debate. The feeling at Bales is that Bowdoin has purpose ly propounded an impossible challenge. Moreover, May is late for a debate, all >f the intercollegiate debates except when unavoidably postponed come at least by April. So the lateness of the challenge makes it the more impracti cable. The date for the T'niversity of Ver mont debate has been fixed, it is under stood. for April 11. The debate will be in City hull, Lewiston and the subject will be “Oovernment Rate Legisla tion." Bates supports the affirmative, or side of government control and will be represented by John S. Pendleton, (tuy Von Aldrich and Harlow M. Davis -all of j!>07. Washington's birthday was observed by the playing the annual sopliomorc freshman basketball game in the gym nasium. The game was the most hot ly contested one played at Bates for many a day and finally resulted lfi to 15 in favor of the sophomores. The game was fast but rather character in' d by individual brilliant and lucky shots than by consistent team work on either side. These two teams meet in the our.se of a week or two to play off n preliminary for the indoor meet and a great game is anticipated. The line up of the two teams: '08—Fraser, Mc Cullough.

Discrimination Against the Chi nese Makes Them Angry. Reforms Are Needed, But the Present Situation Is Very Ticklish. Pekin, Feb. 23.—Wu Tins Fang, for mer Chinese minister to the United States, when interviewed for the first time Friday on the existing situation iii China, spoke in support of the boy cott. Wu Ting Fang is now living quietly in Fokin, devoting his time to codify ing tin: iatvs of China, one of the nu merous reforms under way. He suffered for a long time from deafness from the effects of tile explosion of a bomb near him at the railway station last Sep tember, but 1 as now recovered. Speak ing of the piesent conditions, Wu Ting Fang said. •'China is at a crisis and is passing through a transition stage. Her states men and people feel that China needs reform, but tnere are great differences of opinion regarding the means. There are several classes of reformers. Thera arc those who speak foreign languages and who have been abroad and who have l ad experience on both sides of the question. "They favor sensible and useful re forms. but not too radical so as to make China first able to stand upon her own feet. The number of theso sen sible reformers is few. I am one of them. "The ruling classes also know that something should be done, but there re at their wits’ end to know what to do. “The third class is composed of young students who tire too rash. They need training and experience. “Financial reforms should be car ried out in the first place, but without foreign advice and capital would be impossible to do go under present con ditions. I was working out a scheme wiiieh had to be abandoned besause it was necessary to rail on foreign advice. The new coinage is a stop-gap*. “One thing upon which the majority of Chinese is agreed is that China lias been deprived of many rights by con cessions and territorial grants and by the way her people have been treated by foreigners in China and foreign countries. "Many Chinese who have gone abroad to America, Australia and the Philippines write home complaining of arbitrary discriminations made against tile Chinese, which dare not be at tempted against other foreigners. Therefore every one is angry and hence the boycott of American goods illus trating the feeling against the unjust exclusion laws. It has spread over Chi na and is ill retaliation against unjust discrimination and is not anti-foreign. "The Chinese people and otticials are on good terms with ali foreigners and have no hostile feelings towards them. The Chinese merchants have the best feeling towards foreign merchants. The majority of the people in the interior are indifferent to all foreigners travel ing in the interior who write that tiiey are well treated with no signs of hos tility against them.

Wife Murderer Pays the Penalty at Chicago. Orop Falls at 1.34 P. M. Fri day—Neck Is Broken. Respited Three Tines and CqiisiI Foight Case to Last Hoir. Chicago. Feb. 23.—Joliann Hoch. con victed uxorcido, confessed bigamist and v.ho, if but a fraction of the stories of crime that are told of him are true, was one of the greatest criminals this country lias ever known, was hanged in the county jail today for poising his wife, Marie Weicker Hoch. He faced death with a prayer on his lips for the officers of the law. who took his life; and save for the words "Good bye" his last utterances was an assertion that he was innocent of the crime for which he paid the extreme penalty of the law. The last scene in the career of the Hoch came at 1.34 o'clock this after noon while his attorneys were still making desperate efforts for a little more time on earth for him. His death, the lawyers say, has not ended the ap peal that was made in his behalf and although the man himself is dead they promise to carry the case to the su preme court of the United States. The time set for the hanging was be tween the hours of 10 A. M. and 2 P. M. Shortly after 9 o’clock Hoch's at torneys appeared in the office of the clerk of the United States circuit court, where they filed an application for a writ of habeas corpus on the broad ground that Hoch was held in peril of death, in direct violation of the 14th amendment of the constitution of the United States which declares in effect tat no state shall deprive any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law. nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. As soon as the application for the writ had been filed. Attorneys Maher and Comcrford, who were acting in be half of Hoch. hastened to the jail, where they informed Jailer Whitman and Deputy Sheriff Peters that the ap plication for the writ had been made and asked them to delay the execution until the court had either grajited or refused the writ. The Jailer and the deputy sheriff agreed to wait. The at torneys then returned to the court and appearing before Judge K. M. Landis asked that the writ issue forthwith If it was found that it was drawn In proper form. "It is also requisite.” said Judge Landis, "that proper cause be shown for the issuance of the writ." The attorneys then argued that the writ should be issued because the state court was not a court of compe tent jurisdiction; that the sentence was in violation of the 14th amend ment to the Constitution: that Horli was compelled to give and did give, evidence against hirtfcudf; that he was arrested in New York and extradited on u charge cf bigamy, and on being brought to Chicago was charged with murder. After some consideration Judge Lan dis replied: “The application for the writ is de nied. The proper remedy for counsel was a writ of error from the decision of the state supreme court to the su preme court of the United States. The writ is fatally defective end cannot be made good.” Attorney Maher then asked for an appeal from the decision of Judge Landis. The court responded to this re quest: “Later in the day I will enter such an order as will enable you to have this case reviewed by the supreme court in the absence of your client: I "ill not complicate matters by a fur ther delay, it would be much easier for me to grant this man 10 days' time in which to have this case reviewed by the United States supreme court, but respect for orderly procedure compels (Continued on Pa*e Twelve.)

The House took up the subject again at the pres ent session ami passed the bill which bears ltepresentative Hepburn's name. Senators Cullom, Dolliver and Clapp became its sponsors in the Senate. Ow ing to the illness of Senator Cullom, the burden of the contest fell on Sen ators Dolliver and Clapp who success fully defeated all amendments in a de termined fighf made by some of the strongest men in the Senate.

Few People Know How Useful it is in Preserving Health and Beauty. Nearly everybody knows that char coal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature,but few realize its value when taken into the human system for the same cleansing purpose. Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it tile better; it is not a drug at 4II, but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestiines and carries them -out of the system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and Im proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural ami eminently safe cathartic. It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh. All druggists sell charcoal In one form or another, hut probably the best charcoal and the most for tile money is in Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form, or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey. The daily use of these lozenges will scon tell in a much improved condition of the general health, better com plexion. sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of it Is, that no possible harm can result from their continued use, hut on the contrary, great benefit. A Buffalo physician in speaking of tlie benefits of charcoal says: "I ad vise Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in the stomach and bowels, and to clears tlie complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is great ly benefited by the daily use of them: at drug stores, and although in some sense a Patent preparation, yet T bo I lieve I get more ami better charcoal in j S4Hart’s Clia'-eo*!

This condition is due to anemic nerve centers. The nerve centers are the reservoirs of nervous vitality. These 1 centers become bloodless for want of proper nutrition. This is especially trne in the spring season. Kvery spring a host of invalids are produced as the direct result of weak nerves. This can be easily obviated by tising Peruna. Peruna strikes at the root of the j diiUculty by correcting the digestion. ingestion uirm-lies nutrition for the serve centers. Properly digested food 'urnishes these reservoirs of life with ritality which leads to strong, steady serves, and thus nourishes life. Peruna is in great favor among vomen,especially those who have voca ions that are trying to the nerves. Peruna furnishes tho lasting vigor or the nerves that such people need. Tiiousands of testimonials from vomen in all parts of the United States ire being received every year. Such insolieited evidence surely proves that Jeruna is without an equal as a nerve onic and a vital inviuorator. Buy tt bottle of Peruna to-dav.

White of this city died sud denly Thursday in Boston from convul sions caused by acute Bright's dis ease. The news of hts death was a shock to all who knew him here for it was not generally known that he suf fered front an illness that was serious. Mr. White had not enjoyed good health for some time, although he was able to be about. Upon advice of his physician he went to Boston last Tues day to consult a specialist and it was while visiting a college chum there that the died. Mr. White was the son of Htfrry G. and Alice White and was a native of this city. He was a graduate of Yale University and after leaving college he gave much of his time to the work of the Brotherhood of St. Andrews, a so ciety for church work among collage students. Of this society he was secre tary. He was of a pleasant disposition and his character was marked with sincerity. He had many friends in this city, although his acquaintances were comparatively few.

(Ini' was to have the batters’ box seven feet long, giving the batsman a chance to meet the ball one foot near er the pitcher's slab than he can at present. Itudderliam would also force 1h. Flintom. chief clerk of the Kansas City National Bank of Commerce. Tebeau still owns a major ity of the club stock, however, and he is president of the new corporation. Manager Thomas Fleming of the Holyoke Baseball Club announced Thursday the exchange qf Nate Pulsi fer of the local club for Andy Law renci of the Haverhill club of the New Idle land League. Pulsifer was recent ly secured from tlie Sioux City club by Manager Fleming in an exchange of jdayers. He is well known in the New Bagla ml League, where he played sev eral seasons ago. Lawrence is a sec ond baseman and played good ball for Haverhill last season. He is a Holyoke boy. New York Sun: The two ball clubs representing New York in the major leagues are believed to carry the high est salaried teams in the profession. The New York Nationals, it is said, re ceived last year more than $60,000 in sala-y. while the New ork Ameri cans' pay mil footed up about $55,000. Hut the Nationals' salary list included $10,000 drawn by Manager MeOraw. No attempt has been made by either club to reduce these figures this year, but ihe other clubs, nojably thfc Boston Americans hate asked their players to accept pronounced cuts. Doe Shively, president of the 'West ern Baseball Association, has been in Milwaukee to pay his respects to Pros fclcnl Joe O'Brien of the American As sociation. and Ou ner Hnvenor. He said: “The fails at Kansas City are howling for Tebeau to sell out. but he hangs on juoi uir ouin' there again this season. I hope they will not shut down on Sunday ball in Columbus and Toledo, for it would be a hard blow to the association. Umpire Ov.in. whom President O’Brien has slgnc 1. did Rood work in our league, and should be a valuable man for the Aincrirjiii Association.” Sporting Life: To judge from present indications the St. Louis Browns v.iy not finish last In the coming hot Amer ican League race. They are ridding themselves of all the players that put them in the eighth hole. Frisk and ’’an Jir.ndt were recently sold to St. Paul, and now the la list ones to leave are Catchers Joe Sugden ami Frank Roth and Infielder Harry Gleason. Sugden and Gleason are sent tet St. Paul, and Rntli goes to Chicago White Sov. who turn e>ver Catcher Branch Rickey to the Browns. With Sugden gone, but one of the old Browns who jumped the Si. Louis Nationals in the fall of 1001 remains—Bobby Wallace, the crack shortstop.

Pa., club of tlio Tri-State Outlaw League. McCarthy, who has an nlTcr from Pitts burg. feared that New York would turn him back to Montreal without a trial on account of the recent deal by which Own er Farrell of the New Yorks purchased the Montreal club. He maintains stoutly that lie is able to deliver big league goods and resents being sent back to Montreal, lie was covered up similarly a year ago. and ik-cs not like the town, anyway. With McCarthy to Johnstown goes Mike Me Kcvony. a colt inlielder. whose bulling was tlui sensation of independent boll in Mlehigan last year. He recently signed with Albany in the New York Stub League. The fighting faetioiis of the American Association have been very ipiiet o| lute, tint they havr‘ Iwcn working just the same They have been no busy trying to get their nun signed for tile coining season that they have not been able to rail each Ollier so many names, but tlmy have not forgotten that there are two factions. A rest has been given SI ike KeJIy for a time, but the Tcbcau-Jjeipiriii I faction asserts that when spring rone Slike will lie surprisi d with an order front I the national commission refusing him permission to manage tho team from tlm bench. If that should lie the ruse, look out for trouble, for Mike is of the fight ing kind and will not stand for such work without making a desperate effort hi get bark good and strong. .Mike threatened some .time ago to tie the whole assoeia I lion mi with Injunctions if the Tehran I action tided such methods, and there is I no doubt Unit lie will lie as good as bis I word. Boston Cloijc: The grand army of baseball vets is fast tl.inning nut. There was a time when a dozen or less players made up each of the b aditig teams and players would remain in one place for several years. In this way they Incline well known to the patrons: of the game, both at home and .“broad. There was a time when the different members of the oi l Boston champions were as v.•!! known as the mayor of the city and the fans never tired of singing tin'll praises. The cham-cs are that out of the 3d regular players that will hustle for the Boston teams the coming season, less than 10 of the num ber would lie recognized if they walked the full length of Washington street, and Fred T niiev alone of the league team would be recognized.

Bowdoin College Debating Coun cil. When Bowdoin first start*11 in debat ing. five years ago, tile Howdoiil Col lette faculty ma le a rule, which was lojopuii by Debuting Couneil, that faculty couching should never be al lowed on a Kov.iloin debating team. Before this rui" was made debates with Amherst were tarried on by this npree nient. In the ileliate with Clark Col leg". which is to take place within a short time, Bowden also lives up to this rule although Bowdoin concedes j to Clark the privilege of faculty coach ing. Th:.-. is the first time that Bowdoin lias l ad a debate with any college ex cept Amherst and is the first time that Bowdoin has challenged another Maine college to a debate. Since Amherst and Bowdoin could not come to an agreement this year, Bowdoin has been looking for two colleges with which to debate—one out of the State and one In the State. Bettirs were sent to Dartmouth, Brown. Syracuse, Wesleyan. Williams and Clark and Clark accepted. Sev eral of the other colleges signified their Indention of attempting to arrange a debate with Bowdoin next year lull on account of the lateness of the season will be unable to this vear. When it came to selecting a Maine college with which to debate Bowdoin naturally selected Bates, it being the nearest college and also the ’most prominent of the Maine colleges in the debating line. In challenging Bates Bowdoin realizes that she has chal lenged a college which has carried on debating for many years. At Bates however, ihe system of faculty- coach ing has always been allowed and Bow doin tn lier agreement insists that coaching he forbidden if the two col leges debate, and ihat the debate, be strictly an undergraduate affair It ig the wish of thf majority of the students at Bowdoin that the debate be arranged as there is a Rl,od rmiured rivalry between the two ooiiegPS in an branches of college nrtivities except debating. The reply nf tho T^wBlon college will he awaited eagerly hv w-i students and faculty. [Turn It Into Ceushl We sold more than ;XX) h'artr.t alone during i&OT,.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. Features of the Day’s Dealings in All the Leading Stocks. New York. Feb. 22.—Today's stock mar ket does not offer much subject tor com ment. The shrinkage in the volun of business and the narrowing of tile limits ol the market in ev«-i v w.iy were surpris ing. The aggregate dealing for the day fell to a lower level than has been touched for many months past. Tin-re is ground lor believing that the general speculative situation is exercising a grow ing ♦•lb et of repression on the market activity. The high opening today in this market was clue to sympathy with tie* Eondon market, whirh had advanced Americans iwnile Now ork was taking a holiday y. st« rday. A notable fret in the sagging of prices in the New York market was the small offering of stock necessary to effect it. Some inftu-nee in this result was ..m il) utable to the report of the insurance in vestigating committee. Some of the rec ommendations of the conimimtiec regard ing securities t«» be In Id by insurance companies, while not tlneat‘*ning any im mediate results in the stock market, promise the ultimate necessity of market ing very large holdings. The adoption of the House at Washington of the resolu tion of inquiry into coal land holdings by railroad companies kept alive tie sense of vigilant go irdianslrp oi cor poration affairs on tlv p. it of legislative authorities. A similar ii'llie-ncc av is pro duced by the fixing Of an o. «gas j;«t. for New York City by the N»\v York state gas commission. Hates for tim»- loans \v« r«- firm t day and foreign exchange rates were higher. The gradual sagging t-imI. n« y «.f ib« market extended into th- last half hour of the trading, at which time 1 w pi «-.-s of the day w«-re generally touched I;•• tween that time and the dosing of the mark* t there was an abrupt recovery which restored prices of a number of tie prominent active st.K-ks to the highe-t level of the day and made the eln.-dm;' firm.

As the law now stands books and printed matter make up the third class at the rate of cents a pound; while rtthefc mer chandise figures ns fourth class at double that rate, or 16 cents a pound. The change proposed is merely one to lower the merchandise rate and abol ish the rathul statesmen are now putting a severe strain upon their cou vei national powers. A Bowdoin-llates debate in May will arouse a lot of interest, but hardly a:* mui h as tin* baseball games.

The ever progressive Maine Central promises a large number of improve ments in the summer service this year. ".Tie railroad itself will profit, no less than Maine's summer business. Portland is doing an unusually large amount of building this winter. Tints far in l'.lift;, .';3 building permits have belli issued as against seven for the corresponding period in 190.T. The Biddeford papers say that the net proceeds of "Tile First Crusade," recently produced in that city, were »2T-2. rtev. Minot J. Savage a native of Nor.idgewock and one of Maine’s most famous sons in the pulpit, lias bail to give up his work as pastor of the Church of Hie Messiah, New York, as the result of a nervous* breakdown and has gone to California for a long rest. The giant fox of Otis, which has le.f the nlinrods of that section maipv a merry chase, has at last fn'.igp a victim to the rifle of Willis Salisbury. The fox is the largest fver seen in Otis. An Otis correspondent says: “This par ticular fox has been the terror of thej neighborhood, for his boldness as a. thief, and for his weird cries at night "huh would awaken one from pro found slumber. These cries were not unlike the cries of a human being in distress, intermingled with the bark tike a. dog. Mr. Salisbury has had some tempting offers for the fur. which measures five feet.” orunswicu Record: ThQ 'reform wave has reached August^ \ijth the result that the Hoard of ^rade has appointed a committee t)j» honest government and pure elec Ur,ns. This committee has secured’"Sn agreement from the two I'tlPty organizations, signed by the chairmen, that no liquor or money, or even carriages shall he used in the forthcoming election, and that three days after election each party com mittee will file a hill of expenses. To eliminate both rum and money front elections will mean the removal of in fluences that have long tended to cor rupt municipal politics. The moral gain to Augusta in taking this course will lie worth much to the city and other cities and towns in the State will lie indebted to the capital for this splendid ‘‘sample. Bath has discovered the cau&e of the bad taste In the water from Nequasset, and is somewhat relieved to know that it is not due to decayed fish. H. D. Evans, director of the State Laboratory of Hygiene, told the Pity Council last week that there is no pollution in the water and that it is not dangerous to health. He says the disagreeable taste and odor is due to algae, a very small vegetable growth In the water. The algae secretes an oil which is responsi ble for the odor. Such things are not usually found in water at this time of year. The organism is extremely small and there is no known means of remov ing it, except possibly through a sand tiller. Mr. Evans offered the encour agement that the trouble is not likely to continue long. Other water supplies in ttie State have been similarly affect ed. Turf, Farm and Home: More than once this season we have had occasion to canvass the stores of this city—locat ed right in the heart of a fertile fruit growing country—looking for a good, sound, appetizing apple, and our quest has generally been a complete failure. The merchants declare that the ship pers have sent all the decent apples over to tickie Johnnie Bull’s palate, and nothing but culls are left for the people who have not been beforehanded enough to lay in a good store. Must we take this story as a true tale, or are the traders simply trying to work off a lot of all sorts on the unsuspecting public? hieli ever it may lie it is a crying shame to be obliged to get along Absolutely Pun-Natural Odor-FuU Strength BAKER’S BREAKFAST COCOA Has had the endorsement of tne best housekeepers throughout the country for over a century and a quarter.

At harvest lime most every season if a fruit grower would undertake to get a dollar a bar rel for this sort of stuff he would he swept off the earth, and now these same miserable counterfeits are retail ing for more than lire times that price! We can hardly believe that the good eating apples in this part of the Stale have been shipped out of the country at so eaily a date. Will not some of our prominent orohardlsts inform us on this subject? We at least do not want to hear anything about the farmers who have good orchards having a hard time until good merchantable fruit can be had on the open market, a little more plentiful than at the present time in this community. Mind we do not object to farmers getting good prices, ^e wish every barrel of good apples raised in the state would sell for five dol'ars per barrel; what we object to is fifty cent apples at five dollars.

The On-partnership formerly existing between tli vertil liHliii •ipalilies have not made eiassilieation, in their mileage appears only in the -ohitim of total miles. Tile tepoiis also show Unit there are mih s of gravel roads: miles of anile Ido,*!; paveinelll; ll.'i miles of ii.lead.im streets: and L’l.lMl miles of lilt roads. This shows tli.it lor a long [hue to collie, dir! loads will l> a large ii.ctor in oar public roads system and lliat llie proper eonsirue!imi and inain i iala e of these roads min i i nmiiiaiid I’! telltic-li. Uoad Accounting.—ur questions ish-* I to have appi'opriations and ex peidil lo'es 1 i.nsilied as to mads, oridge.t and side w a Iks. in giving this inl'nrin.ition 'll:: towns, gave only one •uiniiiil and slated that no j.lssitioa liun was kepi of these several ex penditures—that one general appm li.ilioii was made and one general ae 11■ l was kept wliiili showed only to whom money had been paid. Thirty-live of tin* towns reported par.ile apprnpri .tintis for each of the items; r.l towns showed separate ap propriations for loads uni bridges and nothing for sidewalks and -t.'i reported i joint appropriation for roads and bridges with a si parali appropriation for sidewalks. In making this division of answers we have put into some one of the ■lau. iln atiniis of town*, making divided ippropriations r*r.'*ry tow it that reports sneh an appropriation fur any one of the last five years—for example, of ille I.', towns in.iking one appropriation for mads and bridges and another for side walks, h :-s than half have made an appropriatU.il for sidewalks each of tin* live years; m my showing special ap propriation for only one year. The same is true of the other groups of towns. Accordingly it was thought best for purposes of comparison to put all ap propriations of the several towns into one lutnp sum and In figure the result ing amounts as the appropralioti for highways. This has been done and will be found in the table. We have also figured the rate of taxation for highway purposes on the basis of valu ations and appropriations for 1901. It appears to us that this rate of taxa tion is the true measure of the burden 1 maintaining the public ways in eai It town, and should be used in making comparisons. Kind Kxpenditures.—T.’pon these roads. including bridges and sidewalks, an average annual expenditure of I .277, 1 14 has been made for the past five years. Deducting SK’X'J.OOI.TH, the average annual expense on aveount of snow, leaves $l,0:r..i0 miles of permanently improved road. The increased ex penditure on account of State roads that may be expected during the next live years, would probd.iy add another 100 miles. It is time the people of the State oi Maine should decide whether they wil continue to put over Ji.tmft.fton per an num into mud, or whether they will take some stand which will give th-n a gootl start on a system of permanent roads. Oriwel and Gravel Pits—Of the 17 ;municipalities that assess and expetr th'dr »\tit toad inn'lly, llo own grave pits, and 243 buy gravel for highway purposes. The prices paid vary from one rent trts that they have pits not opened; 80 towns report that they have no grave) in the town; 28 are doubtful, "'bile the letnainder make no answer. Host Surfacing Material.—In answer to this (|uestiou, 1 StI towns report the use of snivel, and 54 others, gravel mixed with other materials. This gravel hit ludes all varieties as—beach giavel on the seacoast. stream or liver gravel inland, pin gravel, and gravel from horsebacks. Fifty-three towns report the use of I he dirt l>v the roadside for surfacing. »l the other surfacing materials the i" peats show tlie following; 24 towns use gravel and day; 20 use gravel and loam; I uses day with coat of gravel, gr.usd on sand over swamp: .1 use grav’d and oiiisliod rocks; 2 use grav'd aid sand; tts.> Iicavh gravel and dam sin V.t us crushed rocks; 4 use loam: i* us" “hard pan;" 5 use coal asm m i' team ami ci.iv; 3 use rot inn stone; 4 use clay oil sand and sand in day; 2 use saind (ail they have in town); i uses t.-ari; 2 use slate chips; and 1 uses fi hlspar chips. Hoad Machines.—Four hundred and flfty-iiv'* towns own their road ma chines, while ten others hire or borrow from 111- county commissioners of their counties. The total number of road machines reported in use is 552. representing a total investment of $itti,719.97. The sev eral malt “s, number of each in use. wit It highest and lowest price paid is as follows: American Champion. 327. from $125 to $375; Western Reversible, -11, from $110 to $350; Austin-Western. 5, from $2no to $235; Austin, 12. from $210 to $.">;.0; Cli max. 57. from $125 to $275; Victor. 10. from $150 to $350; Acme, 10, from $200 to $235; Indiana Reversible of Fort Wayne. 7. from $105 to $250: National Reversible, I, from $100 to $205; Ruck eye. 2. $250 each; Aurora, 2. from $210 to $225; Ktireka, 1. $150; (beat Western. 1. $2oo; McCormick. 1. $250; Penroek, 1. $250; l’atlen. i. $250; Machines no name reported, 01; One town leports "price j cot:‘iiientiul." In view of above, we would suggest .that towns, before purchasing addi itimial equipment or machinery of any description, make a thorough investi nation of pri. es, and relative merits of all equipment or machinery of the class to oc purchased, before placing tin order. .Some of tile above low prices may be on account of turning in old machines as part payment for now lies. Again the prlee of raw material vaiies fr> tu time to time. What is the Cost of Operation Per Day? Replies to tile above question speak for themselves and are valuable tor pin poses of comparison and for the I avenge which they show. We under stand of course the great variety of ele ments I hat have to he ronsidered in making any such comparison, the dif fer! aces in soils, differences in char acter of wo! k done, etc., tail we feel liltt when tiie individual replies to this ques'ioii ale earelull.v looked over ill eoiuieeiion with the corresponding re plies to the next, “miles turnpiked per day" and other questions governed by it. some valuable points will be learned. The i.-piles vary from $12.00 per day to $35.i.ii, and an average of the replies ob tained is $10.42. Miles Turnpikeil Per Pay. Replies Vaiy from oue-twelftli of a mill/' to four miles, while tin- methods vary from tin- thorough making over of the toad to tiie mere smoothing up of the old surface. Three hundred and seventy-three definite replies were received while 31 could not estimate; the average of the former is .M2 of a mile. When we consider this figure—the average of 373 estimated averages in connection with the average cost pet day for operation. $10.42. which is the average, of 420 replies, it would seem that these figures should mean some thing. Durability- of Turnpiking. To this question 3X5 replies were received. Three hundred and forty-seven answers gave the time in years that turnpiking would last: this time ranging from 20 years to "until fall rains.” tiie average of all replies being four years and eight months. The other 3S show more or less cau tion by qualifying their answers as follows; "Many years if built right:" "two years if not graveled;-’ "depends on soil:" "short time, roads too nar row;" "unanswerable," etc. Of course our idea was to obtain an estimate of tiie average durability.

Evidence in Lockwood Tax Co. Valuation Will Be Received. The following rescript was handed down Friday by Associate Justice W. I*. Whitehouse: City of Waterville vs. Bassett. Bradley Adams, County Commissioners of Ken nebec County. Rescript by Whitehouse, J. In this proceeding the City of Water ville appears as a i*etitioner asking that a writ ot prohibition Issue from the su preme judicial court to pronibit th tl.-* attorneys f.-r th.* LocxM'ood Company in regard to the val uation placed by lie* assessors on semm 3U0 other p.eces of r*al estate, not sim ilar in ki'id *»r situation to tie Lock wood mill projierty. and also as t th* actual value of such other j r >p**rty in distinction iron* sis assessed value n«#t only Ioi ih- purpos as ;tll» ge ol h w ing an undervaluation of those particu lar pieces of «prop rty but as tending also to show a general practice and Jiniform cles!gn to undervalue all of the real es tate in the city, for the purpose of taxa tion. except that of the Lockwood Com pany. This evidence was object'd to by the attorney:; for th city, bm was r** c»*iv* d by tlie commissioners.

In Fibre Co. vs. Hradley, 1*9 Maine. L'fci, n the other hand it may be in sisted that such intentional undervalua tion being in open violation of the consti tution, is a public wrong which the court should neither imitate nor countenance, but should seek by all appropriate means both to punish and prevent. Hut in that case the court held that evidence of the undervaluation of four pieces of proper ty was wholly insufficient to prove a gen eral design to undervalue the property of the town, and that since the question of such general des.gn was not raised by tic* evidence, the court expressly “refrain from deciding what should 1m* the rule in a case where such a design was proved. liut in this proceeding for a writ of pro hibition. before it has been decided by the county commburionera- that any such general and designed undervaluation has been shown in this case, this court is asked to interrupt the proceedings of the tribunal having jurisdiction of the matter nmii.r nnr hw and determine in advance. without opportunity for full and exhaus tive examination a legal mul constitu tional question which hen not in feet aris en and may never arise upon any finding of the county comimssionei s—an«l before it appears that either party is aggrieved by the final division of that board—a question which was specifically reserved by the full court until it should be neces sarily ami directly involved in the judi cial decision of a cause. This the courts are ordinarily unwill ing to do. I/m* experience has shown it to bo a wiser and safer rule to apply the law to the facts after they have been found, amt not to give opinions in ad vanee upon academic questions. But the request for a 'Writ of prohibi tion upon such a state of facts and for such a purpose, encounters other Insup erable objections not involving the mer its of the controversy. In the first place it Is established by an overwhelming weight and substantial ly unilorm line of authority that the ex traordlnarv remedy afforded by the an cient writ of prohibition Is granted only for the purpose of preventing a lower court from usurping a jurisdiction and exercising a power with which It has not been vested, and not for the purpose of controlling its proce,'dings or prevent ing or correcting Its errors respecting the admission or exclusion of evidence, in causes of which it has acknowledged jurisdiction, it is clearly shown to have been the original purpose of this writ and now its distinctive function to prevent encroachments of jurisdiction by inferior courts and to keep them within the lim its and bounds prescribed lor tUem by law. But being n writ of sound judicial dis cretion and not necessarily a writ Of‘ right, it will not always be granted.even to restrain the usurpation of jurisdiction if other existing remedies are efficient and adequate to nlTord relief. It is a funda mental principle that it will never be al lowed as a remedy for grievances which may lie fully redress'Hl in the ordinary course of judicial proceedings by appeal, writ of error or writ of certiorari. It Is not employed as a process for the correc tion of errors /which may be committed by a lower court In the ordinary exercise of Its unquesioned jurisdiction. It has lieen specifically In-Id in numerous in stances and Is laid down as a general rule in the A. B. Rneyc. of l.aw, that error i;, the reception or rejection of evidence by a lower court or Insufficiency of evi dence to support its decision. Is not ground for a writ of prohibition, while oil the other hand It has been declared In both till* State and Massachusetts that certiorari is the proper remedy to apply to redress grievance arising from such errors. It has been seen that jurisdiction of pe titions for abatement of taxes has been conferred upon the court of county com missioners by express provisions of the I statute, in the case at bar that court had entertained the petition of the Lock wood Company asking for an abatement for the alleged reason that the value of its property had been overrated by the assessors. The i)uestion submitted was whether it had been so overrated. The commissioners were engaged in perform ing the duty ol deciding that question. It is not suggested that they proposed or now propose to determine any other ques tion titan that submitted to them. It is nut claimed that they intend to exercise any jurisdiction not entrusted to them. The responsibility, as well as the power of decision, is imposrd by law upon them, and while their nets are confined within the limits of their Jurisdiction, it is not i for tills court to prescribe in advance in what manner their judgments shall be inf irmed or aided in the discharge of that duty. But In determining whether the valua tion placed upon the property of the I.cckwood Company was in excess of its just value" and whether ttiat property was “overrated” upon the facts of this case, tin- commissioners would undoubt edly Upon request of cither party, find and report specially whether in tlx* year 1905 there was an intentional undervalua tion of the property generally in the city of Wnlerville, other ihan that of the Lockwood Company, for the purpose of taxation, and if not, whether the valua tion of the Lockwood Company's proper ty was in excess of its just value. If they iind that there was such an inten tional undervaluation of other property they would also find and report whether the property of the Lockwood Company was rated above its Just value, and if not whether it was relatively in comparison with the other property in the city and expressly state upon wii.it grounds an abatement of the tax is made or refused in order that either party aggrieved by the final decision may obtain any redress to w.licit he may be entitled by virtue of the writ of certiorari. For the foregoing reasons the writ of prohibition must bo denied anil the petition dismissed. WILL BE OPEN FOUR MONTHS. Plans for Recreation Hospital on Chase Island, for Coming Season. Treasurer Campbell of the Maine Insane hospital announced Friday af ternoon. that arrangements had been trade with the Governor and Council lor the operation of the recreation hos pital nil Chase island, formerly known as Widow's island, off Rockland, lor the coming season. I.-ist year the hospital was open but two months owing to the fact that it was not completed earlier, and during ti „t lime ns path-tits from the Augusta hospital and itfi from the hospital in Bangor were taken to the island. That the trip and the life at the is land proved beneficial there is no drubt. All returned benefit led, am! ten of those who had be.-n sent from tiie Augusta hospital were after their Minrn fully recovered and returned to tlair homes. I Hiring the coming Reason the hos pital will be open four months, and deublt -ss llie good work begun last si a son will i> carried on equally well. Toe plans for conducting the recrea tion hospital have passed the experi mental stage, and the benefits which l-'sulled to those patients who were given an outing (luting the time the icspital was in operation last year, v.ill la- shared l.v a much larger mun I*er lie- tinning season.

AMUSEMENTS. “Nan Patterson.” Tiie above was the title of the drama presented by the Maud-- llillman Stoek Co. at tiie Opera house Friday even ing and as on Thursday evening, the company was greeted by a large audi ence. As might be expected the drama had for its inception the Patterson-Young tragedy, and many of its details are used in the working out of the plot, but the writer of tiie drama has in let woven in the four acts which are required to tell tiie story enough fun to brighten up tiie dark places, and the production as a whole is about of the average. As far as tiie work of the company went it met with the approval of the audience. Miss Hillman as "Fannie Matteson,” was acceptable and her support was good. The specialties were of the same excellent quality as on the preceding evening. Tiie Miller brothers in acrobatic work, Yackley Bunnell, musical comedy artists, and Baker and Houston in comic songs and dances were all right, and won many encores. The company will close its engage ment today, with the above drama for a matinee and "The Great Buffalo Tragedy” for the evening performance. The Devil’s Auction. The name of Charles H. Yale in con nection with great scenic productions is so widely famous that the coming of the 24th edition of his ‘•Everlasting Devil s Auction" to the Augusta Op era House is awaited with considerable interest by many theatre-goers. Manager Yale has the faculty of re taining general features and special ones that have always proven a strong and steady attraction. To this lie adds from year to year such adjuncts as are in accord with the imperceptible, but none the less certain shifting of public taste. Mr. Yale claims that the “Devil’s Auction" is the oldest in name yet the newest in point of novelty, and this can well be substantiated in this—the 24th edition of this famous spectacle, as ev erything is new from the time the cur tain rises on the first act until it is lung down on the beautiful transforma tion scene "Amor" (Dove) at the close of the performance.

CAPITAL CHAT. (Continued from Page One.) firmly entrenched* But Mr. Littlefield persisted In a campaign of education session after session, in the last Con gress he got the hill favorably reported out of committee but too late in these session to hope of its being enacted in to law. Now he has gotten a favorable report so early that the consideration of the hill by the House is almost cer tain and lie is pulling all the ropes to get it considered early this session. lie is also taking i lively interest in the Railroad rate regulation bill, on which he made a notable speech a few weeks ago and is much in consultation with senators about the various legal pro visions. Representative Allen of the 1st Maine district, has had an unusually large amount of work in the Distiict of Columbia committee at this session of Congress. That committee virtual ly governs the city of Washington. While little of their legislation attracts the attention of the country, it never theless involves a lot of constant work. One of the measures which Mr. Allen recently considered was the whipping post hill, providing the lash for wife beaters. Ho was not himself a be liever in the measure, hut it was re ported out of me District committee with a majority vote. Collector Moses of Portland has been visiting much with Mr. Allen during "the last few days, in which time he has been renewing acquaintances with many friends about the Capitol. To maintain, as is apparently held by many schoolmasters, that bodily ex ercise is itself recuperative after "men tal” effort, so that a hoy who has been exhausted by study can be restored to his pristine •‘mental” vigor by a pa per chase or by compulsory running, or by any other form of severe and sus tained "bodily" exertion, seems to the London Hospital to be "the very ex tremity of physiological ignorance and of practical unwisdom.

The concert at City hall this evening by the Bowdoin Glee and Maudolin C.uitar clubs is certain to be a success. The advance sale of tickets lias been very large and everybody who can go will be there. The hoys will arrive on the afternoon express front the Kast and most of them will be entertained at the homes of Bowdoin men in the city. The concert this evening will begin at S o'clock sharp and the numbers on the program will be run off with celerity and snap so that dancing will begin at an early hour. A word may he said as to the pro gram of the evening. The concert will open with tlie song. “We'll Sing to Did Bowdoin” by the combined clubs. This song was written hy George Fogg, Bowdoin. '02. and in one of the best col lege songs of any New England college. It is a song which will stir the audi ence to enthusiasm on the start. After that there will he enough to keep the enthusiasm at top pitch. "The Song of (he Triton" gives the glee dub an op portunity of showing its powers. The Mandolin dull will.give “Jovial Joe." a new mandolin dub piece which has a great swing to it. Mr. Mikclsky will give a few selected readings which arc sure to make a big hit. The Bowdoin clubs have a fine double quartet which is heard to great advantage in "lie ware” ami the first pari of the program i •loses w illj "Miserere," a mandolin dub selection from II Trovatore. The soloists have their turn in the second part of the concert. Mr. Pike and the dee dub open it with "Jessa mine Flowers" and Phi! Chapman will delight the audience with a inandola solo on which he in an expert. Mr. Johnson, the leader of the glee dull, will give a selected solo. The Mandolin dub's ‘•Selections from Little Johnny Joi.cs" will undoubtedly make a liig liit as it is one of the best numbers on the program. The glee club lias its turn again in “The Two Boses" and the concert will close as all Bowdoin affairs rlo with the singing of Phi t'lii and Bowdoin Beata, two college songs, which are famous wherever Bowdoin j men go. The manv friends of Charles Camp bell will regret to learn of his death, which occurred after a long illness at tlie home of his daughter. Mis. George \V. Chaplin, 45 Fern street. Bangor.

Famous Entertainer Delights Large Auciience Friday Evening. Beatrice llerforil, the Inimitable, de lighted a very large uuUlencc in tls'* Congregatio.i.il chapel last evening with a series of monologues—all 01 igi hal an I very unus-.iud. Miss Herfnrd nr 1 tuples her own particular place in the lyccutn licM and the writer can rri:il! i to tniiiil no entertainer of this period whose specialty is in any way sugges tive of Miss IliTtord's. CJificd witli it I icniaricahly svinpathetic pi-esttn e, a delightfully clear and evenly modul it cd voice and a personal charm that makes one feel thoroughly acquainted at once, Miss Ilcrford is singularly gifted, and even if her selections were out tile very inipcrs-onlfication of clev er.css, she, would still be a great suc cess as a “polite” entertainer.

BEATRICE I1ERFOIU). Miss Hcrforl has strut k out into tin cniLeiy iiiginai vein. S!n■ calls Her lit t-c (situ tainment “monologues," anil so they arc. in so far as she does them ad hei st If. Hu; they are really clipped dialogue/: that is. dialogues which pre supposes a i one* itioa or at i l.iist tlie aid of “properties" to make la r tits1 monologues more realistic; su--h stave settings and parapiienalia would 1 nd to broaden the delicious end stiil satisfying situations that al.ound in suggi stive humor, rather Ilian the heavy tilings that require a diayr iui m the under.-landing, “hitmor ons" work that is used by many pop ular lyceum humorists. She puts on and tala off imaginary bonnets, pins, imaginary veils and folds up imagiuaiy ioaks. In fact, one might say that she has here the drama reduced to its simplest expression- and the more en joyable and readily grasped in its full est meaning for the fact. Miss Harford's repertoire of readings is a very extensive one, and one which the v filer imagines, is changed fre ojin ally to in; the tastes of a discrim inative ainth-neo. .Miss llcrforcl uses, in this rtp rloi/c a great deal of material that is h r own and some of it is the product of Iter precocious brother (.Mi ter. for there are two Ilet-fords. Oliver writes tilings for the unsuspecting magazines and for his delightful sis ter, who was with us last evening, for which he enjoys quite u reputation. Tlie 1 let-lord, however, is Miss Beatrice and her “Lady Packing." an English i lassi- of feminine Irresponsibility un der distressing ireumstam es is really inesistibly funny; funny in the sense that it provokes wholesome expression of mirth because of its suggestion of humor and not because it is really hu morous jn tin- accepted sense. Miss lierf »rd is very successful because she designs to play up to tlie very border of the limitations of her bearers, and site vi ntures no further. Hence her lasting popularity. The appearance of Miss llerfor-l was Hi last of the series of lecture enter taim a ids given ip tin- popular course and fittingly the last was greater than the first, and the other two, also.

It Makes Pure Blood We are often asked, Why does Hood’s Sarsaparilla effect such wonderful cures of cases that seemed beyond the reach of medicine? An examination of our well known formula, from which Hood’s Sarsaparilla is and always h(w- be<?n carefully and scientifi cally prepared, confirms the fact that it contains those well-known and valuable medicinal ingre dients, which, when intelligently combined and properly adminis tered, are sure to bring about good results. It is the properly balanced pro portion, combination and process in combining those ingredients known to have specific action upon the blood, stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, which make Hood's Sarsaparilla peculiar to itself and enable it to produce results uncqualcd by any similar medicine. These ingredients are: for tins blood, Sarsaparilla, Stillingia, Yellow Dock; for the liver, Mandrake, Dan delion; for the kidneys, Uva Ursi, Juniper Berries, Pipsissewa; for this stomach, Gentian, Wild Cherry Bark, Bitter Orange Peel; for the bowels, Senna, Mandrake, Dandelion.
