VOL. XXXVIII. AUGUSTA. MAINE TUESDAY MORNING, MARCH 5,1907. XO. 55, THE 59TH CONGRESS ADJOURNS SINE DIE, Amid the Usual Scenes Attending the Close of the World’s Great est Legislative Body. RESUME OFWORK ACCOMPLISHED Shows Total Appropriation of $919, 948,670, of Which $756,622 674 is For Annual Expenditures. Washington, March 4.—With a new record for large appropriations and far-reaghing leg islation, the 59th Congress was brought to "a close shortly after noon today. The last few hours were calm, in fact tame by comparison with what had been expected. Long before noon Senator Gallinger’s fight for the passage of the ship subsidy bill had been abandoned and the filibuster against it conducted by Senator Car mack being no longer necessary, he surrendered the floor, much to the disappointment of the gal leries. Extreme fatigue due to continued night sessions in the House during the last week, had a dampening effect upon many congress men and the usual excessive “last day enthusi asm” was confined to less than half the mem bership. Despite these conditions the audiences in both houses were as large as they have ever been. One of the interesting features incident to the close of the Congress was the visit of President Roosevelt, who, with his cabinet, White House staff and a number of guests, occupied the Pres ident’s room in the Senate wing. Seated at a big table in the center of the room he signed bills as they were enrolled and presented to him. On account of the dispatch with which business has been conducted during the past week, there were only 40 bills to be signed today. When the members of the committee which waited upon him with the information that Congress was ready to adjourn, had delivered their message the President thanked them for the laws they enacted, but he added with a smile, that he still had several bills that would be heard from in the future. This amounted to good natured but direct notice to Congress that he had not abandoned the several recommenda tions for legislation which had not met with the Congressional favor this session. In addition to the songs and stories that usu ally mark the close of a session, there was a beautiful picture formed by the entire House rising and waving flags ahd singing “My Country ’Tis of Thee” as the gavel fell at 12.15 P.M. In the Senate the last of the proceedings was the speech by the Vice President prior to ad journment at 12.15 P. M. His remarks were applauded by thousands of visitors, and the t applause continued as the audience watched with interest the farewells of senators on the floor. IN THE SENATE. Washington, March 4.—The Senate resumed session today at 9.30 o'clock, as in the legislative day of Saturday last. S’enator Carmack was on his feet to continue his filibuster against the ship subsidy bill.

Victim of Shooting Thom' i as Evans, Not George. Not Dead Its Reported, But li Very Critical Condition. Fred Michaud Is Held Without Bal In Jail at Houlton. Fort Fairfield, Me., March 4.—It de veloped today that the victim of the shooting at Caswell plantation Friday night was Thomas Evans and not his brother George, as first reported to the officials, also that ho did not die as re ported, but was still in a critical condi tion and not expected to survive. Evans is 24 years old and has a wife and 3-months-old child. Seven leaden slugs from a shot gun entered his abdomen and one or two lodged in ‘the groin. Fred Michaud, who is about 23 years old. was to be arraigned before Trial Justice C. A. Perry at Limestone to day, charged with doing the shooting. Evans was on his way home from a store on the toundry line and stopped at Michaud’s house. A quarrel ensued, followed by the shooting. It is claimed that Michaud's wife, who was Miss Alice La bred; of C'as wcil. was engaged to marry Evans two years ago. Evans went to work in the woods and whc-n he returned she was married to Michaud. Since then jealousy, it is assorted, lias caused numerous quarrels between the two men. Michaud waived examination when arraigned before Trial Justice Perry and was hold without bail. Ho was token to Houlton jail by 'Deputy Sheriff Leighton. Evans was still living to night. The German Peace Society tit a meeting at Eisenach, Monday, adopted a resolution calling on the government to send as delegates to the peace con ference at The Hague only men who are seriously convinced of the value of the general aims of the conference, and who are in favor of an earnest discus sion of the limitation of armaments, compulsory international arbitration and the firm development of interna tional law.

ANNUAL ELECTIONS HELD MONDAY IN ELEVEN OF THE MAINE CITIES. I

Auburn, Gardiner, Rockland and Waterville! Have All Elected Republican Mayors. Bath, Eastport, Hallowell, Lewiston, South Portland Democratic and Saco Citizens-Democrat. Republican City Governments In Auburn, Bath, Gar diner, Hallowell, Rockland and So. Portland. Portland, Me., March 4.—Practically equal gains over last year were made by both parties in the elections in 11 Maine cities today. The Democrats lost their mayor at Watervllle, Rockland and Auburn and the Republicans lost theirs at Hallowell, Eastport, Elis worth and Bath. While the Democrats lost the head of their ticket at Watervllle, they still control the city government. On the other hand, the Republicans obtained the balance of pawer in the city gov ernments of South Portland and Bath, while losing their mayors. An extraordinary circumstance in connection with the election proceed ings came up at Saco. The candidates for aldermen were tied in two wards and as the wardens failed to adjourn until a specified date, it is understood there will be two vacant scats in the aide rmanic board this year. The closest results beside Saco were at Hallowell. where the face of the re turns showed a plurality of only four votes for the Republican head of the ticket and the aldermen were obliged to make a recount which was not com pleted until nearly midnight, showing the election of the Democratic candi date. BATH. George E. Hughes, Democratic, De feats Ernest A. Allan for Mayoralty. Bath, Me., March 4.—For the first time since IS'jk a Democratic mayor was elected today and the Republicans very nearly lost control of (he city. For mayor. Geo. E. Hughes, a former member of the National Democratic convention who was defeated last year by a small margin, received llSS vote s and Ernest A. Allan, Republican 606. The Democrats elected one alderman and 11 of the ill councilmon. The aldermen elected were Sidney B. Knight, Wilbur C. Oliver, John H. Morse, Dein.; John A. Morse, Alfred R. Pratt, ('has. E. Robinson, and Ili ram R. Pettee. William It. Kimball, the Republican defeated for alderman in Ward 3. announced lie will contest the election of Dr. John H. Morse, claiming he has not been a resident of the ward for some time. A number of local conditions con tributed to cause the turn over hero. The Democrats gained strength and courage from the Democratic gain in the State election last September and from their own accomplishments a year ago when Mr. Hughes lacked only 16 votes of winning the mayoral ty honors. They argued that Mr. Al lan. who is but 30 years of age and came here from Washington, D. C., eight years ago, is inexperienced al though he has served a year in each branch of the city government. The fact that so many councilmen were elected was accounted for by the al leged refusal of the Republican candi dates for the council in those wards to sign Democratic nomination papers. FAIRFIELD. The Officers Elected and the Approp riations As Voted. Fairfield, Me., March 4.—(Special).— The annual town meeting took place her today. P. A.

La wry was chosen for the super intending school committee for three years, and W. F. Mitchell for one year, to tube the place of W. \V. Merrill, re signed. Adjournment was made for dinner at this time. The ladies of the K. P. Pratt Relief Corps served a tine dinner in their hall. The following appropriations were made: Common schools, $»500; High school, $-000; incidentals, $2000; books, supplies and repairs, $2500; payment of town debt. SfiOOO; interest on indebted ness bonded and lloating, $2000; high ways and bridges, $5000; for Memorial day expenses, $100; care of Monument park. public library. $1000.

Littlehale fD), Ivan A. True worth (It) and Fred A. Blackington (H). Tiie Social ticket received about SO votes. SACO. Weymouth Elected Mayor—Only Five Aldermen, Account of Ties. Saco, Me., March 4.—A very un usual situation results from the city election today. Only five aldermeu were elected because of ties in Wards 3 and 7 and as the wardens in these wards failed to adjourn until tomor row or some other stated time, it is understood there can be no further election and those chairs will be va cant. Except Ward 2 and the two wards in which the ties occurred, the ticket nominated by the Citizens and endorsed by the Democrats was suc cessful. Dr. Harry A. Weymouth was elected mayor with a majority of 87 over Jas. IT. Fenderson, Hop., and Daniel W. Perkins. Independent.

March 4.—Prices broke with viol-.nce in the ‘later dealings in stocks today and the market gavi every a pp pearance of wholesale liquidation being m force. Tlie early action of the mar s'it gave an impression of bear attack. There was a moment of strength in a lew issues at the opening and there wen points of resistance in the early decline. Hat tin- whole list was swept into tho downward movement and the decline gained impetus as the futility of the ef forts at support was perceived and stop loss orders were uncovered on the de cline. The supposition gained ground a.so that there was soqne large liquida tion of what are called investment h dd ings going on. These reports caused a gloomy feeling over the whole industrial and business outlook. The reports were without i onhrmation upon inquiry In of lieia! quarters. ,,A number of preferred stocks on which the dividends have a comparatively nar row .surplus of earnings to depend made pri-cipiiate decl'nes on comparatively light dealings. The early resistance was in. tin- department of specialties for tho most part, and amongst the industrials. Reading was strong and seemeu to bo tccumulated with persistence into the af ternoon.

Lyon illg. Co. Brooklyn,N.Y. IN THE SENATE. (Continued from Page One.) There was no other business ready, so Senator Hale moved that a recess be taken until 10.15 o’clock. No ob jection was made and the motion was adopted. The Senate had just been relieved of the filibuster on the ship subsidy bill when another was begun. Senator McCumbe-r brought up the ayicient claim of the heirs of Samuel Lee, for reimbursement on account of an elec tion contest. Senator Latimer, who has consistently opposed the bill at once took the floor. Senator McCumber asked if the opposition was to be con tinued to the limit. Senator Latimer replied that it was whereupon Mr. McCumber withdrew the bill. At 25 minutes to 12 o'clock. Senator Beveridge called up a long bill for the protection of game in Alaska. Its reading was demanded by Mr. Culber son and had proceeded for five min utes when Senator Carter suggested that it would be impossible to get the bill engrossed before noon even if it were passed. ‘‘I wish to call attention to the fact that the bill must necessarily be amended,” said Senator Clapp. "It gives no protection |te> woodchucks and there is no exception against the penalty of the law tor men who kill ducks and prairie chickens in self defence.” .The bill was withdiawn amid laugh ter. The closing exercises in the Senate did not begin until 12.0G. Previous to this Senator Hale had secured the adoption of a joint resolution author izing a committee of senators and representatives to wait upon the President and inform him that the work of the 59th Congress was fin ished "unless the President has some other communication to make.” Sen ators Hale and Pettus were appointed on this committee. The adjournment hour had passed when they announced that ;ho President had been communi cated with and that he had replied that he "has no further communica tion.” Senator Alli-non then took the presiding officer’s chair and Mr. Fairbanks retired to the Vice President's room. Senator Blackburn, the minority leader, took the floor and offered a resolution tenderingj "the thanks of the Senate to the Hon orable Charles W. Fairbanks, Vico Pres ident of the United States, and presi dent of the Senate, for the dignified, im partial and courteous manner in which he has presided over its deliberations during the present session.” The resolution was unanimously adopt ed. The Vice President then appeared in the chamber, took the chair and re plieel to the resolution. The Vice President's remarks were as follows: “Senators: The Chair is sensible of the fact that the resolutions you have adopt ed is a courtesy to the Chair, sanctioned by immemorial usage rather than to the occupant of that exalted station. “If the Chair had been able to con vince the Senate of his Impartiality in the discharge of the duties which de volve upon him and which are often deli cate and difficult, he is gratified in full measure. He fully appreciates that what ever success may have attended him in the performance of his duties during the session which is now closing, has been (largely due to the patience and generous co-operation of the members of the Sen ate, all of which he gratefully acknowl edges. "Tito Chair desires to place upon the permanent records of-the Senate ids tes timony in behalf of those senators whose j service in the Senate is about to termi nate, for their unwavering devotion to the public interest while here and to wish them many years of further usefulness to their countrymen. “The Chair wishes for those who re main in the Senate and now enter upon their vacation after their arduous public duties, health and a safe return. They have well earned the approving judg ment of their large constituency by their intelligent and complete consecration to the public service. “The Senate of the United States has well vindicated its claim to the popular approval of its wise, careful and patriot ic consideration of many questions of large concern to (the government and tha people. Each passing session justifies tlio wisdom of the fathers who estab lished the Senate as one of the essential safeguards to American institutions and one -of the assurances of the -political welfare of the people. “Permit the Chair to thank you, sena tors, each and all, for your uniform kind ness and to bid you god speed. “Tile hour which by laiw terminates the second session of the 59th Congress hav ing arrived, tlie Chair declares the Sen ate adjourned without day.” Generous applause greeted his remarks and the scene quickly changed to one of farewells and handshakings. THE APPROPRIATIONS. Total of $919,943,670, of Which $756, 622,674 Is for Annual Needs. Washington. March 4.—Statements were made to the Senate and House today by Senator Allison and Representative To'W noy, chairmen respectively of the appro priation committees, and Rep. Living ston. -the ranking minority member of the House committee, regarding the ap propriations which have been made dur ing the session. The total appropriations aggregate $919,94S,6T0. of which $756,622,674 is for the annual expenditures of the government for the fiscal year ending June 3fl, 1908. The balance of the grand total is to be used as follows: For emergencies and deficicnces on ac count of the fiscal year 190V and prior years, $12,449,635; for miscellaneous ob jects, such as private claims and the like, authorized in special acts. $1.0:0.600: for permanent annual appropriations to meet the interest charge on the public debt, the requirements of the sinking fund, expenses of collecting the revenue from customs, redemption of national bank notes and other purposes, $119,SS6, 320. The revenues of the government for 190S are estimated at $830,000,000, which, it was stated, would leave a surplus of $26,090,000 and not a deficit as had been predicted in some quarters. I During the 59th Congress as a whole, I It was stated that $19S.090,030 had been ap- proprlated In excess of the total for the 58th Congress. 1 Analyzing the increased appropriation for the year 1908 over the current fiscal year, 4he total of which Is given as $19, 009,000, the Increases are distributed in part as follows: For the army, $9,700,000; fortifications, $1,800,000; legislative, executive and judi cial, $2,400,000; postal service, $20,000,000; Tensions, $7,,000,000. It was stated that while the river and harbor bill carried approximately $83,090,- j 000, the expenditures under it would be but $27,000,000 during 1D08. The appropriation on account of the Panama Canal during the I9tli Congress was Increased over that during the 58th by $69,500,000. During the same time the postal expenses increased $70,000,000. Representative Livingstone, presenting the views of the minority on the subject, agrees as to the total, which he says i? "in increase of $10,359,y will be at least $100,000,000 below the appropriations and authorizations for expenditure churgeabl. to the session of Congress just closing. “The increase for the army over last year is $6,718,117.67: increase for the navy over last year, $21,S67,OoO, with the author ization for two new ships; increase for fortifications, $1,844,000; increase for pen sions, $5,691,000. If this military spirit and extravagance is to continue, the ways and means committee had bettoi get busy and previde a largo increase in the revenues.” Mr. Livingston concluded with this re mark: "I wish to Heaven we could give th Philippines away to Japan and get out o that country whose cost to us no one c even predict. I received a letter the oth er day from a debating society in m district asking my opinion whether Cub should be annexed. To that question I want to reply right here: We have got enough of those kinds of rats now.” THE PRESIDENT Pays the Usual Visit to Capital and Signs the Last Bills. Washington, March 4.—The President I left the White House at 10.50 A. M., for the Capitol. Before leaving the execu tive offices the Aldrich currency bill was signed and the first measure signed after his arrival at the Capitol was on authorizing an immigrant station a' Charleston, S. C. Among the Pc -'dent’f guests in the room set aside for him in the Senate wing in addition to th various railway brotherhoods at th Capitol during the consideration of this measure, was in the room at the tim it was signed. The President shook hands with Mr. Fuller, remarking “you know the President only gets a per centage of what he wants.” Mr Roosevelt thmi told Mr. Fulle’ that the measure was a step in tie right direction and he hoped it would result in more sweeping legislation ir the future. After attaching his signa ture to the bill the President chatted with members of his cabinet and othc visitors for a short time, leaving th' Capitol at 12.25 on his return to th White House. CABINET CHANGES. It Is Postmaster Gen. Meyer and See of Treas. Cortelyou. Washington, Mar. 4—George B Y,rtnding, contained a provision provid g that hereafter such reserves should t be established except by act of 'engross. The President, anticipating bis, concluded that reserves which he id consider 1 very important for the ntcrests of the United States, would ■e wholly or in part dissipated before 'oneress had an opportunity again to consider the matter; while under th" action taken, they will be preserved. In a memorandum on the subject th President says that if Congress differs from him in this opinion, it will have full opportunity in the future to take as it may desire, anent e discontinuance of the reserves. The President says these forest re ■erves were determined upon and the eparation of the necessary papers or ■rrd some months ago. He declares hat failure on his part to sign the ■reclamations would mean that im ner.se tracts of valuable timber would all into the hands of the lumber svn .ieates before Congress has an oppor unity to act, whereas the creation of he reserves means that this timber will be kept in the interest of the home maker.

One of the Important Doties of Physicians and the Well-Informed of the World is to learn as to the relative standing and reliability of the leading manufactur ers of medicinal agents, as the most eminent physicians arc the most careful as to the uniform quality and perfect purity of remedies prescribed by them, and it is well known to physicians and the Well-Informed generally that the California Fig Syrup Co., by reason of its correct methods and perfect equipment and the ethical character of its product has attained to the high standing in scientific and commercial circles which is accorded to successful and reliable houses only, and, therefore, that the name of the Company has become a guarantee of the excellence of its remedy. TRUTH AND QUALITY appeal to the Well-Informed in every walk of life and 2re essential to permanent suc cess and creditable standing, therefore we wish to call the attention of all who would enjoy good health, with its blessings, to the fact that it involves the question of right living with all the term implies. With proper knowledge of what is best each hour of recreation, of enjoyment, of contemplation and of effort may be made to contribute to that end and the use of medicines dispensed with generally to great advantage, but as in many instances a simple, wholesome remedy may be invaluable if taken at the proper time, the California Fig Syrup Co. feels that it is alike important to present truthfully the subject and to supply the one perfect laxative remedy which has won the appoval of physicians and the world-wide acceptance of the Well-fnformed because of the excellence of the combination, known to all, and the original method of manufac ture, which is known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only. This valuable remedy has been long and favorably known under the name of— Syrup of Figs—and has attained to world-wide acceptance as the most excellent of family laxatives, and as its pure laxative principles, obtained from Senna, are well known to physicians and the Well-Informed of the world to be the best of natural laxatives, we have adopted the more elaborate name of—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna—as more fully descriptive of the remedy, but doubtless it will always be called for by the shorter name of Syrup of Figs—and to get its beneficial effects always note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co.— plainly printed on the front of every package, whether you simply call lor—Syrup of Figs—or by the full name—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna—as—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is the one laxative remedy manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. and the same heretofore known by the name Syrup of Figs which has given satisfaction to millions. The genuine is fur sale by all leading druggists throughout the United States in original packages of one size only, the regular price of which is fifty cents per bottle.

Certain gentlemen are endeavoring to make capital by questioning the party loyalty of the Republican standard bearer on the ground that he is holding the otlice of city solicitor under the present administration. In asmuch as there arc but two Demo cratic lawyers in Augusta, one of whom did not care for the city solicitorship, and the other receiving the office of city clerk, it will be seen that some Republican lawyer would necessarily be called upon to till the office of city solicitor. Mr. Dutton’s po sition oit the most important question that was before the new administration was so well known that he was the natural and logical selection as the le gal representative of the city. Mr. Dut ton stated his position clearly and un equivocally at the city caucus when he stated that lie was. and had been all his life a Republican. In the face of that declaration any attempt to make, capital out of the fact that he is hold ing a city office is, to say the least, de cidedly farfetched. One thing, we may rest assured of. Mr. Dutton as mayor would be actuated solely by a desire to serve faithfully, and without fear or favor, the highest interests of the city. To those interests he is pre pared to give his undivided attention. It Is the only office he is a candidate for, and If elected, the only one hi* will hold. Watervilla Is Republican Again. flood for the Republicans of Water vllle, who redeemed that city from the control of the Democratic party which has mismanaged Its municipal affairs for the past few years. At last Sep tember's election the Democrats car ried the city by over 500 votes and yet. yesterday the Republican candidate for mayor was successful over his Demo crat opponent, an alderman under the present administration. Dr. Bunker will make Watervllle a good mayor and that city is to be congratulated that it steps back once more into the Repub lican column where it belongs. Plainly the tide has turned that last spring swept the Democrats into power in a number of our Maine cities. hat the Republicans of Watervllle did yes terday. the Republicans of Augusta can do next Monday. Just as the tide turned there; so can it be turned here if the Republicans will only get together and support their party ticket. Augusta is a Republican city and there is no rea son why it should have a Democratic mayor or city government. The Repub licans of the city have a winning tick et in the field this year. Let us get to gether and work for it in the old-lime spirit. Watervllle has set the pace and Augusta will follow next Monday. Portland’s Treasury Raid. That State surplus will look like 30 cents when the Legislature gets through with it. if some worthy object doesn't get overlooked in the scramble. The pile is melting pretty rapidly thus far, and there is no indication of a let up in the general raid on the treasury. —Westbrook Chronicle-Gazette. One would think to read the above that our Westbrook contemporary is op posed to raids on the treasury, and yet it approves of the Portland project to loot the treasury of an unknown sum for an indefinite period for the building of a State House in Portland. Its ap proval is doubtless given in a spirit of neighborly kindness rather than through any genuine desire to see the scheme succeed, but if the Westbrook Chronicle-Gazette is opposed to wast ing the State's money why should it approve of the scheme at all? The most amusing move of the Port land boomers is thefr solemn assurance that "if” Portland as a municipality provides the sum of $500,000—which cannot be done—and "if” the Portland •citizens go down into their pockets for $^50,000 more, and “if” a site is also provided free, then the people of the State will have to pay “only” $540,000. To be sure no plans are drawn and there is no assurance that a new State House will not cost two or three times what these figures indicate, but how nice for Portland it would he if it could get the State committed to the policy of capital removal by making it believe that only the beggarly little pittance of half a million would be tak en from the public treasury! Does it think the people of Maine are so stupid as to be caught in any trap of that kind? Kven assuming that the capital of Maine is to be put up at auction, would the people of the State swallow any such bait as Portland offers and thereby commit themselves to a great and unknown and unnecessary expense through years to come? The Portland boomers sadly underestimate the intel ligence of the people of Maine. Their treasury raid will not succeed. ‘‘Great Portland; Little Maine.” Monday morning a mass meeting of citizens interested in the proposed making of this city the capital of Maine will be held at the rooms of the hoard of trade. There is now a grow ing feeling that the change may be made. Portland will renew its re ddest that having made an offer of $".00,000 as rn outright gift to the State, coupled with an agreement to raise money enough for a site, some proposi tion ought to be submitted to the city by the State as an ordinary matter of business courtesy. If the offer made by Portland is not large enough then I here is a feeling here that the State should submit some offer on its part to the city, to be accepted or rejected.— Portland correspondence of Boston nilliU-iy vnwur. H iw is that for Portland nerve? “If the offer made by Portland is not large enough, then the State should submit some offer to the city to be accepted or rejected”! Wouldn’t that jar you? If the gentle reader has survived the shock, let him ponder on the modest suggestion that “some proposition ought to be submitted to the city by the State as a matter of ordinary busi ness courtesy"! Surely it has become a matter of great Portland and little Maine! It is no longer a question whether Maine will change its capital from Augusta to Portland, but whether Portland will “accept or reject" the “offer” which Maine may make Port land as an inducement to that city to consent to become the capital! O, the richness of it! On what meat ha3 this our Caesar fed that he has grown so gr-at? When did Portland crowd the rest of Maine off the map” The Adjournment of Congress. The closing session of the 59th Con gress came to an end at noon Monday, not because it has completed its work but because it expired by the provisions i f the law. It has accomplished much since its members came together last December and its record is a credita ble one. For the first time in the cotin trv's history the appropriations of a single session have leached the billion dollar mark, but as Speaker lteed re marked. this is a billion dollar country and its growing needs and great pros perity prevent the people from finding any fault on this score. Many im portant matters have been before it for consideration and here is a list of some of the more important acts which have become laws: Pensions to all honorably discharged volunteer soldiers of the Civil War who have arrived at the age of G2 years. Provision for the building of two ?0. 000-lon battleships with Ill-inch gun batteries. Reorganization of the artillery corps of the army, separation of the field and coast artillery, and an in crease of 5.00U men in the strength of the latter. Establishment of the right of the government to appeal on questions of law in criminal cases, thereby strength ening its hands in the anti-trust fight. The passage of an immigration law designed to bar Japanese coolies, doubling the head tax on immigrants, increasing aooomimxl.itions on immi grant ships and creating a commis sion to study the whole question of immigration. Currency legislation widening the scope of the authority of the secretary of the treasury in deixvsing government money in national banks, increasing the amount of national bank notes! that may be retired in a month, and providing for the issuance of gold cer tificates in smaller den iminations and increasing the amount of small bills. Corporations forbidden to make po litical contributions. Limitation of the working hours of railroad employes. Authorization of a government agri cultural bank in the Philippines. Ratification of the San Domingo treaty for American administration o£ the insular finances, legalizing the modus Vivendi in operation for the last two years. Ratification of the Morocco treaty. Settlement of the Reed Smoot case in favor of the senator. Senatorial investigation of the Brownsville affair. Passage of a Senate resolution favor ing investigation of Congo affairs. Increasing the scope of the free alco hol act in the interest of small pro ducers. Survey of the proposed Appalachian and White mountain forest reserve. Appropriated $S3,000,000 for rivers and harbors. Gave Increased salaries to cabinet ministers, the vice-president and sena tors, the speaker of the house and its members, to ambassadors, ministers and consuls, to postoffice clerks and letter carriers. At the same time many important bills have failed,-, among them the Philippine tariff bill, the bill con ferring citizenship on Porto Ricans, the eight-hour and anti-injunction bills, the White Mountains forest reserve bill, the bill to regulate interstate traffic in intoxicating liquors, copy right revision, regulation of child la bor, codification of the federal revised statutes, publicity in campaign af fairs, and shipping subsidies. The United States Senate loses one of its strongest men in the resignation of Senator Spooner of Wisconsin. For 16 years he has been a member and his service has been marked by unselfish devotion to the country's welfare. He has long since come to be recognized as one of the ablest speakers an>l soundest lawyers of the Senate. There is no stain on his record and lie retires at Hie age of 61 a poor man determined to devote himself to the practice of law that hi may accumulate something for his family. It Is evident that the Republican vot ers of Augusta are waking up to the im portance of making a vigorous fight at next Monday's election. If every member of the party lines up and does 'his full duty the Republican ticket. Which is in every way worthy of the support of our taxpayers, will win out by a handsome majority. A vote fur Frank I,. Dutton will be a vote f..r a thoroughly business ad ministration of city affairs. It Ittaine Gossip il Springs Advance Agent. Oh, sunny days. You bless our gaze.

There is now pending before the Maine legislature an act, introduced by Representative Scates of Westbrook, creating and establishing the office of state comptroller. There can be little doubt that, with a. competent business man in this position, the saving to the state would amount to many times the salary of such an official, and while there may be very ..reasonable objec tions to increasing the number of sal aried stale officials, the movement for the creation of such an officer as is proposed by this act has a solid found ation in business economy. The pas sage of the act will insure uniformity in bookkeeping in the various state de partments; complete publicity in state affairs; careful scrutiny of all claims, lulls and charges, and provide the leg islature at its opening with careful estimates of the sums needed by the various departments. At present the business of auditing accounts by the governor and council is too often re garded as a mere formality; with a state comptroller it would be a mat ter of careful business detail in the in terest of the tax-payers of the state. If we were to suggest any amendment to this measure it would be the substi tution of the word “auditor” for the word “comptroller” wherever it occurs. Comptroller is a good word, hut in the interest of simplicity auditor is a bet ter one in this connection. Everybody knows what an auditor is, but there are some who arc naturally suspicious of a. ‘•comptroller." The mere name Is immaterial, however, so far as the benefits to lie derived from the crea tion of the office are concerned. An Audacious Proposition. Editors Kennebec Journal: A Portland paper, with great head lines announces that a meeting was held in that city on Thursday last at which it was vigorously urged and en thusiastically agreed, to raise a law sum of money and send a great lobby to Augusta to effect tin- removal of the capital to Portland. In the name of all that's best in civic life, was the parallel of Port land's audacity ever known? Will men and money dominate and con trol the Legislature of this State' “1 thank thee. Rhodorii k. for the word: it nervts my heart, it steels niy sword.” Come down here, you men of Port land. with all your men and all your money! You can't buy or bribe or bully tills Legislature; and you'll liivl it rait. to your everlasting sorrow! Nor will you deceive the people of this State into thinking that all the citi zens of Portland are behind your nefarious scheme. We know who are in it and who are not. And we know that many of the best element of your city utterly repudiate it as they do the whole moving proposition. They know the whole thing is as dead as a her ring; and no number of lobbyists ami no amount of money and no fake offers can resurrect it. T. F. N. Personal Notes.

GOOD PROGRESS Is Made In Thaw Murder Trial In New York. PiiSNtr's Mother May Be Svom Today or Tomorrow. AliMist For Defence Proves a Match For Jerome. Xew York. March 4.—A long stride forward in the trial of Harry K. Thaw waS taken today when District Attor ney Jerome announced that his ex haustive cross-examination of Dr. Britton D. Evans, one of the alienists for'the defence, had been concluded. Dr. Evans had been under fire since Wednesday morning last. He was im mediately succeeded on the stand by Dr. Charles G. Wagner of Binghamton, Y., -who accompanied Dr. Evans on most of his visits to Thaw in the Tombs. Mr. Jerome indicated by his questioning of Dr. Wagner that he may conclude with the witness tomorrow. Mrs. William Thaw is expected to be the next ligure in the witness chair and she may be sworn either late tomorrow or early "n Wednesday. With Mrs. Thaw’s testimony in. the defence will practically have completed its case and it seems likely that the state’s rase in rebuttal may be begun by the end of the week. Just what District Attorney Jerome will he able to prove on rebuttal remains finite as much of a mystery as ever. He com plained today in seeking a broad in terpretation of the rules of evidence by Justice Fitzgerald that if he would call any of the defence's alienists in rebuttal they might refuse on the ground of professional privilege to an swer anv question* put to them. This seems to indicate that Mr. Jerome’s threat to call Dr. Allan McEane Ham ilton in rebuttal carries with it ttn possibility that Dr. Hamilton may no testify, for at the time lie made the examination of Thaw in the Tombs he* was in the employ of the* prisoner’s counsel. It is not yet exactly clear to the lay mind to what extent the dis trict attorney can go in disapprovinr Mrs. Evelyn Neshit Thaw's testimony He has admitted that even if he cour show Stanford White* was out of the country at the time of the alleged ex perience witliKvelyn Neshit in the 24th street studio, he would not be allowed to do so on the ground that it would be a collateral fact. It appears, how ever, that t’he prosecutor can e-all ny one to contradict Mrs. Thaw in cases where she said she made certain state meats to a third party. In this con nection Mr. Jerome has indicated that he will call Howard Neshit to tostife that his sister told him that Thaw ha*' treated her cruelly because she would not tell lies about Stanford White. Dr. Evans left the witness stand to day subject to recall for re-direct and re-cross examination, hut he may not be called for either. The witness pro tected the interest of the defence quite keenly throughout his cross-examina tion and at all times appeared a match for the district attorney, who displayed so much t xpert medical knowledge dur lug his famous grilling of Dr. Wiley the Pittsburg alienist. Dr. Evans to day admitted that Thaw had an insan knowledge of wht he was doing or Madison rt'iuare Roof Garden the nigh' he shot and killed Stanford White. ,Thr New York statutes prescribe that to bt exempt from punishment for crime an insane person must be so demented a: not to know the nature or quality of his art or to kow that the act is wrong. In explaining Thaw’s actions subse quent to tlie shooting—his quiet de meaner, his directions as to wha' should be done with his wife and who should be sent for—Dr. Evans declar ed that as soon as the defendant sho> Stanford White the brain storm subsid ed and his senses beg n to recognize themselves so that the tan knew quite "'ell What he was about. He alsr knew that lie was attacking Stanford White when he shot. Dr. Kvnas ad mitted, hut the knowledge was that of an insane man and the act was the result of insane reasoning. Dr. Wagner also declared Hint Tliav had Irrational knowledge of what was transpiring on tile roof garden. He be lieved the man's insanity dated from the time Evelyn Nesbit told him hei story in Paris in l!Hi3. Dr. Wagne’ created quite a stir in court by using tile present tense in responding to p question by District Attorney Jerome as to what form of insanity Thaw has or had. Dr. Wagner declared that Thaw Is suffering" from symptoms which lead toward a melancholic state and a state of dementia praccox. When asked to describe the latter phase. Dr Vagner said it covered such a wide field of dementia as to lie difficult of strict definition. Dr. Wagner declared that Thaw's condition of mind at tlm time of tin- snooting was the result o' one of the insanities of adolescence. H’ alienist, who was under cross-ex amination Wednesday, Thursday and Friday last, was again placed on the Fitness stand as soon as Thaw was caI1H to the bar. Thaw again brought into court sev wal big brown portfolio envelopes filled Fith letters. He receives several scores of missives dally, pome of the letters coming from across the seas, and his Monday morning mail always is heavy. In resuming his cross-examination of Dr. Evans, Mr. Jerome asked: “Doctor, reverting to the night of the shooting of Stanford White, does the fact that the defendant walked deliber ately away without excitement after the shooting appear to you to be an important fact in determining- whether or not the defendant was insane" “Yes, it leads me to believe he was of unsound mind, that is, when taken in connection with the other incidents.” "That his step was slow and measured and that he manifested no agitation, you deem of importance “Yes. taken in connection with oth er facts.” “Your opinion is that he was of un sound mind?” “Yes, based on all the facts and the somewhat dramatic manner in which lie acted. The fact that he walked de liberately away without any effort to escape indicates to me that he didn't know he had done anything wrong, didn t know he had done anything that should make him shrink from his fellow men or from the officers of tlie law.” “Then his attitude was one of satisfac tion -with his deed?” “X would hardly go as far as that.” “When he walked toward his wife, did he knew in which direction lie was go ing?” “In view of the fact that he walked towards ids wife, it seems to me that he did." "The fact,” said Thaw, “that Thaw told the fireman who seized him Tic ruined my wife'—does that indicate to you that the defendant knew he had killed Stanford White?'' “It indicates to me that this one thought which had -weighed down upon him which had been devouring his soul— was still with him.” "Do you think that in yielding up his pistol Thaw knew 'what he was doing?” I oon t know* whether he knew that or not.” "Don’t you think that in saying ‘He ruined my wife' Thaw wus giving a rea son for killing Stanford White?” “I couldn’t say that.” Well, what was the menfal process which led him to say it?” Tiiis idea of liis wife being ruined by Stanford White was still in his mind—in the forefront of his thought.” “When the defendant said to the man Who had him in custody: 'I've, got to go down in the elevator anyway; can’t you take me r.ow?’ did he know he 'was in custody “Yes.'* “Did he have sufficieht intelligence to know why?” He might have had an insane appre ciation of all the incidents.” Do you think he knew lie had been irrestril for killing Stanford White?” “1 can't tell.” “On tlie elevator he. said: 'I did it be cause lie mined my wife.’ Does that throw any light on his condition?” Only as it shows as did the other things, that his mind was centered on tills one idea,” But at this time did he know what he had done?” “There had been by that 'time a reor ganization of his mental forces and by that time lie knew that he had done something.” “Now in the brain storm, did the de fendant have any idea as to what he was doing?” "1 believe he had an insane knowledge of what he did—not the knowledge of a sound mind.” “Were Thaw’s mental processes such that he knew he 'was attacking White?” He had an insane knowledge—yes,” eplied Dr. Evans. The New York statute in an insan ty defense provides that the person ommitting a crime must lie so insane s not to know the nature or proper kind of food to sup ply the physical and mental necessities of man? I have had experience with all the various food stuffs known to our markets, but up to the present time I have met with no other answering so fully all the requirements as does Grape-Nuts food. In my own experi ence and observation in my practice, I have found Grape-Nuts to he not only more satisfying, hut more lasting in the beneflt derived from its use. It sends a man forth to his labors in a state of physical comfort, with a cheerful and buoyant spirit; and the end of the day finds him with reserve strength—he suffers less from exhaustion and deple tion of powers. “I particularly reconrtnend Grape Nuts food to those whose occupations involve a great deal of brain work. There cculd not be a food better adapt ed to the strengthening and conserva tion of the faculties and energies. It supplies a more sustained mental vigor than any other food that I know of. “Grape-Nuts food contains all the elements that form the valuable part of natural diet in a condensed, tooth some and easily digestible form.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mieb. “There's a reason.” Mr. Dt'lmas who (lodged and the judge and Jury laughed. Mr. Jerome explain ed with many gestures and described Thaw’s passage down the roof garden, his turning to the left and walking 25 feet to the table where White sat with his head in his hands. ’’Then he turned deliberately and calmly shot Stanford White dead. Does the fact show that he knew what he was doing?” “No." replied Mr. Evans, “his calm ness does not show he knew but might indicate that perhaps he did.” “Would the fact that Thaw and his party each had a cocktail and several bottles of champagne shortly before, have any influence on the affair?” "Not directly, if it had. each one of the four would have shot someone.” “When Thaw told the policeman that he shot White and in reply to the po liceman's statement that he must go to the station house, he said ‘all right,’ did lie know what he was doing and what he had done?” “By that time, I think there had been a re-adjustment of his mental processes and that he knew that Stan ford White had been shot and tiiat he did it.” “Does the fact that Thaw told you in the Tombs that he had not wanted to kill White hut had tried to have him punished by law, show that he realized what the law was and that some acts are prohibited by law?” “At that time, yes," replied Dr. Ev ans. “You believe Thaw had sufficient in telligence to know that?” ‘T can't accept intelligence in the sense you use it,’ replied the witness, “as applying in cases of unsound mind. A man may be both cultured and in telligent and still be insane.” “Are insane persons deterred by fear of punishment?” asked Mr. Jerome. "A great many are.” “That 's all.” Mr. Jerome's long cross-examination was concluded. He had said on Fri day last lie would have only a few questions to ask Dr. Evans today as to his opinion of certain authorities on mental disease Put he did not touch upon that subject at all. Mr. Delmas was about to begin'his re-direct examination of Dr. Evans when he asked the witness if lie' had certain papers in his possession. Dr. Evans said he had not. It was agreed then that ho would be temporarily ex cused and Dr. Charles G. Wagner, su perintendent of the State hospital for the insane at Binghamton, N. Y„ was re-called for cross-examination. Dr. Wagner was with Dr. Evans on most of the latter’s visits to Thaw in the Tombs. Dr. Wagner.” said Mr. Jerome, “will you kindly describe in as few words as possible the kind of insanity from which this defendant was suffering the night he shot and killed White?” “I would say,” said Dr. Wagner, “that it was one of the insanities of adolescence; that it was not developed sufficiently to permit of a definite char acterization. There are symptoms lead ing to various forms of insanity, in cluding dementia praecox.” Mr. Jerome asked the doctor about his visits to Thaw in the Tombs ami lie said that so far as he remembered Dr. Evans had left no incidents of these visits untold. Then Mr. Jerome took ui) the subject of medical writers and Dr. Wagner said that while he did not know of one work which he would take as authority absolutely without qualifications, at the same time he knew of none who wrote on insanity whose work was not entitled to respect. Dr. Wagner named three or four writers whose works he read, and were of value. He was closely questioned re garding the class in which these au thors would place Thaw’s insanity. He declared he could not answer for them. “What is your opinion of the writ ings of Allan McLane Hamilton?” annul air. Jerome. Witness declined to answer and Mr. Jerome appealed to the court. Justice Fitzgerald on Friday last had not re quired Dr. Evans to answer this same question. He said today he would rule the shine way. Justice Fitzgerald here read a statement he had prepared over Sunday anil in which he upheld his right to exclude from the record any thing which might be construed as prejudicial error. Mr. Jerome then asked the witness: “What kind of insanity is it this de fendant ha^or had?" In replying Dr. Wagner created something of a stir by using the pres ent tense. “in my opinion.” he said, “this man has symptoms allied to a depressive form of insanity and others allied to dementia praecox.” Whether Dr. Wagner used the pres ent tense intentionally or not, did not develop for the point was not caught up by any of the attorneys. Mr. Jerome, however, in a loud voice repeated the doctor's answer by beginning: “Then you say, doctor, that this man is suffering from symptoms allied to two forms of insanity?” Doctor Wagner listened intently and replied: “Yes.” Dr. Wagner then repeated the story that Thaw told him in the Tombs to the effect that he had not wanted to kill White, but that Providence had stepped in and that it was probably for the best, for if White had been sent to prison he would perhaps have succeed ed in getting out and would have re sumed his course. The luncheon recess was taken at this point. During Dr. Wagner's testimony Thaw several times whispered excitedly U Dr. Evans, who on leaving the witness stand, had seated himself at the at torneys' table close behind Mr. Hart ridge. Just before court reconvened aftei the luncheon recess Mrs. William Thaw arrived at the court house, accompa nied by Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, Mrs George L. Carnegie and Mrs. J. J Caine, who seems to have taken May MacKenzie’s place as the younger Mrs Thaw's companion. They went at nnct to the witness room. The Countess ol Yarmouth was the only member of the family not present in the building thb afternoon. Dr. Wagner was called again to th( stand when the afternoon session be gan. “I understood you to say this morn ing.” began Mr. Jerome, “that you wer early today and upon leaving th' White House, said that Archie’s con lition was very satisfactory. Dr. Alexander Lambert of New York, who was the physician of flu Roosevelt family before they came to Washington, was in consultation with Dr. Rixey this morning. He probablj will leave for his home tonight. Dr. Rixey visited the White Houst again tonight and as he was leaving said: “Archie is getting along nicely. HP condition is not serious and there is no reason for alarm. The other children nave been issolated as a precautionary measure and I do not believe there is the slightest danger of their contract ing the disease.” Dr. Lambert returned to New York tonight. The sailors of the President's yacht Sylph today sent Archie a bunch of violets. Mrs. Roosevelt remains al most constantly at her son’s bedside. APPLICATION DENIED United Supreme Court Will Not For bid Arrest of John A. Chandler. Washington, March 4.—The supreme court of the United States today denied the application of John Armstrong Chan le.r, formerly of New York hut now of North Carolina, for a writ prohibiting tlie New Y'ork courts or their officers from molesting or arresting him while on a contemplated visit to New York Which Mr. Chanler desires to make for the purpose of prosecuting a suit which he lias instituted to secure the restora tion of his property, now in the hands of Thomas T. Sherman as guardian. The property is estimated to be worth about SI,000,000 and was turned over to Mr. Sherman 10 years ago as the result of the proceedings to test Mr. Chanter's sanity. WIN BOTH WAYS. Brown Debaters Prove Both Sides of Question Are Right. Boston, March 4.—An interesting tri angular debate between Brown, Dart nouth and Williams, held simultane ously tonight at all three colleges was non by Brown, whose teams deefated Dartmouth at Providence and Williams at Williamstown.

The registers of deeds and the register of probate of the several counties of the Stat" seem to furnish all th“ business for the committee oil salaries and fies. Out of seven matters on its calendar, live of them are concerning these matters. Alfred D. Perkins, an employe at the State House, who has been seriously it!, was able to visit the Capitol again yesterday. He is much improved in health. Hotti branches will convene this afternoon at 4.110 o’clock. The first farmers' institutes under the direction of the Maine Agricultural Department, lor the year of 1007 will be heiti in Androscoggin county the third week in March. Distfhguislied speak ers have been engaged and it is ex pected that the institutes will find the same favor with tlw farmers that they have in former years. The first will be held in the Grange hall at Last Livermore, Tuesday. March 10, morn ing and afternoon; the second in the Grange hail at Kast Hebron on Wed nesday. March 20, morning and after noon and the third at Rowes Corner Grange hall in Auburn on Thursday. March 21 Posters, issued from the Agricultural Department, are being spread broadcast all over the county. State Highway Commissioner Paul p. Sargent has received an Invitation to attend the fourth annual convention of the American Road Makers’ As sociation, to be held in Carnegie hail at Pittsburg. Pa.. March 12. 13 and 14. This organization is composed of the road commissioners of the several states and there will be present expert road builders of national reputation ivho have studied the science of road building from an economical stand point and along the most intelligently improved methods. The plan of selecting delegates calls for six from each state, but inasmuch as there is no appropriation in this State for such an expedition. Commis sioner Sargent will go alone, if the work of the office will permit him to do so. Albert P. Could.

A Nation of Cripples-Rheuma tism Beyond Control. The Only Hope to Rheumatic Sufferers is Uric-0 Treatment. If rheumatism continues to spread as it has in the past few years, it would seem as though we would before long become a nation of cripples. T lie terrible destructiveness of this disease is apparent, on every side of us. Al most nine out of ten of the cripples one meets had their affliction brought on by Rheumatism. How many thou sands more there are that are hope lessly bed-ridden and whom we never see. Rheumatism from the very nature of the disease, can never cure Itself and if neglected, is bound to grow worse rather than better. If you ever have any twinges of Rheumatism go to Percy \V. Means’ drug store right here in Augusta and got a bottle of Fric-O. the wonderful new Rheumatic Specific. It will cure you and it is the only treatment in the world that will cure you permanently and thoroughly. Urlc-O cures by its direct action on the muscles, blood and kidneys. It seeks out the poisonous Flic and Rheumatic Acid and drives it from tile system and it is only a treatment of such a nature that will ever cure Rheumatism. Liniments and plasters only serve to drive it from one spot to another. They neve^ cure Rheu matism. because it is primarily a blood disease, and until the blood is i lea red from the poison, a cure can not take place. There never was a case of Rheu matism that Uric-O could not cure and you should not put off taking it be cause it is in thi? end by far the cheap est method. You can test Fric-O free of charge if you wish. Just cut out this advertisement and send it to the Smith Drug t'o.. Syracuse. X. Y„ and state that yon have never used Frie-O and would like to trv it. They will send you a free sample which you ran test and try free of charge. BUSSELL WESTON COMPANY—TELEPHONE, 411-2—AUGUSTA. New Spring Coats and Suits. THEY ARE HERE AND ON SALE.

Will Shorten Journey From Liv erpool to New York. Van Buren Would Become a Rail* road Center and City. Then- is (imp man in this State wlio j thoroughly believes that Van Huron is destined to be the metropolis of northern Maine. That man is Peter Charles Keegan. He will tel! you that Van Buren lias trebled in population since the last census and that it will have a population of 30,000 souls in side of the next ten years. He will also tel! you that the little town up there on the St. John is going to be the biggest railroad center in Maine, not even excepting Portland. Ac cording to his way of figuring there will he no less than six railroads enter either Van Buren on St. Leonards across the St. John River. These roads are the International of Now Brunswick, the Bangor and Aroos took. the Canadian Pacific, the Grand Trunk Pacific, the Northern Railway Co. of Maine and a new railroad, des tined t shorten the sea voyage from Liverpool to New York by a day and the railway journey by some ."0 miles. It is rumored that-this new road is a scheme of James J. Hill, the rail road magnate and that it will be built l in tin- immediate future. It is known] i hat a party of 110 or 30 surveyors I haw gathered at St. Leonards this i winter ml will survey a line through j to Cnspe Bay South, on the Gaspe j Peninsula. Beginning tit Gaspe Har- bor. situated at the eastern point of I Gaspe Peninsular, which forms the I southerly side of the Gulf of St. i I a wren co and where there is a ueaun- j iul harbor, almost completely land- j locked, the new road will run In a southwesterly direction through Galt. I .a Roque, I-a Force, thence across the unsettled portion of Gaspc county striking the coast towns again tit Newport and Port Daniel. At the latter point the new construction will cease and the road will join a section limit by an Knglish syndicate in the summer of 1906, then over another line called the Atlantic and Lake Superior, whirl! follows the coast towns along to the Restigouehe River. These two short sections of the railroad have already been acquired bv the Hill interests. The roads skirt the northern shore of Raie Chalour. one nf the most beautiful sheets of water mi the Atlantic coast and pass through the towns of Fox. Hamillon, New Richmond. Morin. Farlelon, Ninivclle, Mann and Metapedia into Ni w Rrunswick, crossing Hie Restigouehe River near its junction with the Metapedia. New construction begins again here, the line passing through practically virgin country, a veritable paradise for the hunter and summer tourist, along the Restigouehe river until it roaches nearly to the head waters of that stream and then crosses over to the vail -y of the Grand and follows that down to a point within a few miles from where it empties into the St. John. The railroad swings slight ly to the eastward and terminates at St. Leonards where it will bridge the river and join the Ilangor and Aroos took at Van Huron. Mr. Keegan will give you a glowing description of rhe country through which this road will pass, telling you that it is the finest hunting ground east of the Mississippi and already marked by the wealthy railroad men for their summer retreats. Tflie inhabi tants are small farmers and fishermen, simple, frugal and industrious. They wjll welcome the new road and do everything in their power to make it a success. The real business will rome however from the European travel. Tap steamers will come down through the Straits of Beele Isle to Chaleurs Bay and find a safe and ample harbor at Baie Gaspe South and North. Passengers can then lisembark and take through trains to New York and western points. Mr. Keegan declares that this new landing will shorten the sea voyage a full day. It will hurt the business at Halifax, hut it is a safer and better harbor. It will bring business to Van Buren and population and fame. Van Buren would be more than a way station for it would be a junction and distributing point. People coming from the four winds would stop at Van Buren and take a new tack for their destination. Travellers from at ross the Atlantic would come to Van Buren and change for the' i"uiindiun and Nova NVotinn points.

Hill's camp at the headwaters of the Restigoushe river and it is known that he is familiar v. ith the country, its resources and its possibilities.

TRIPLEALLIANCE. Its Diplomatic History an Interesting Volume. Author a Former Counsellor of tho Russian Embassy. Says He Speaks From Knowledge And the Facts. Paris, March 4.—Some interesting revelations concerning the diplomatic history of the Triple Alliance are made in a recently published volume entitled “The Ambassadorship at Paris of Baron De Mohrenhoim," Mohrenhc im was for 14 years the Russian ambas sador at Paris and conducte d the Rus sian end of the negotiations which re sulted in the dual alliance. Jules Hansen, the author of the book, was the counsellor of the embassy during that period. Hansen claims his information comes from a. “sure source.” He says that besides the official treaty consti tuting the Triple Alliance with its ap pended military conventions. Emperor William and King Humbert verbally engaged their words of honor to re main true to the alliance and to use every influence, should the case arise, to prevent their ministers from dis solving it. Emperor Francis Joseph later joined this pact and autograph letters between the three sovereigns consecrating it were afterward ex changed. When made, Hansen says the Kaiser was thinking only of France, Emperor Francis Joseph only of the possible aggressions of Russia and the Slavs in the Balkans. The military portions of the conventions were prepared in tile most scrupulous care. It foresaw tiie possible necessity for the union of the Austrian and German fortes on the Rhenish frontier against France, the Union of the Italian and the Ger man fleets in the Baltic against Rus sia and joint operations of the allied armies and navies in the Dardenelles and beyond. Hansen says: "This information is absolutely ex act and one of the reasons Germany always opposed the publication of the treaty was because it contained as many clauses against Russia as against France and its divulgence would only have hastened the con clusion of the dual alliance by dis sipating Russia’s last hesitations.” But the most curious feature of the “history” is the statement that Eng land was at one time practically a party to it. “In the treaty as it ex isted before 1 f'02,” says Mr. Hansen, "there was a clause, or rather a reser vation. inserted by the Italian cabinet whereby in no ease could Italy be en gaged in a league against England.” In the renewal of the treaty in 1902, Air. Priaetti “forgot the reserve con cerning England.” Great Britain, says Mr. Hansen, was very prudent and was never more than partially engag ed. “The foreign office. (England), limit ed itself to declaring that in the event of war between Russia and Austria or between France and Italy in the Mediterranean, it was very probable that Great Britain would intervene against Russia Pi the* one case and France in the other, without admitting that this declaration entailed upon England obligations as a casus foe deris.” GERMANY’S REPLY Is En Route for Haytien Capital On German Cruiser. Port Au Prince, March 4.—The Ger man minister here has notified the Haytien government that the reply of Germany to the representations of Hayti on the subject of the banking house of Hermann Co., of this city, will be brought here by the cruiser Panther. It was announced from Port Au Prince, Feb. 10, that the relations be tween the governments of llavti and Germany were strained as a result of the refusal of the German bankers Hermann Co., by direction of the courts, at Port Au Prince, to return to the Haytien government large sums of money alleged to have been fraudu lently obtained. EIGHT MEN LOST. Members of Crew Perish In Wreck of Steamer Helene. Dover. Eng.. March 4.—Eight mem bers of the crew or the German steamer Helene. trading between North Sea ports and Spain, which was sunk after a collision yesterday with the German steamer Marsala, from Hamburg to the Mediterranean! succeeded in reaching shore in one of its boats. After the coiiision. the Helene was run ashore near Dover, hut she got off and afterwards found ered with the loss, it was reported, of the eight men of her crew whose safety has just been announced. King Edward Visits Paris. Paris. March 4.—King Edward ar rived here today from England, on his way to Biarritz, where he will stay for siime time previous to cruising in the Mediterranean.

Several Incidents in Election of Regretable Nature. r>r. T-. O. Hunker won the municipal election in this city Monday as the candidate of the Republican party, over Chnj-les H. Barton, the Democratic candidate, by a plurality of 35 votes. Four of the seven wards of the city are controlled by- the Democratic in complexion. Wards 1, 4. 6 and 7 are found in the Democratic column, while Wards 2. 3 and 5 are Republican. A re count of the votes Monday evening' in the office of the city clerk at City hall failed to materially change the result, and it is believed that the face of the returns will be followed. There was a clean sweep for each party in the wards which they respec tively controlled, with the exception of member of the Board of Education In Ward 4. The rival candidates were Dana P. Foster, Republican, and Fred W. Clair. Democrat. Mr. Clair was de feated by Mr. Foster by a vote of 171 to 164. Mr. Clair's friends lay his de feat to the influence of Dr. Edgar L. Jones, the present mayor, and chair man of the Democratic State commit tee. There were several incidents in con nection with the election which are re gretable. In Ward 1. after a score or more of ballots had been cast it was found that the words “For Alderman” apptared over the name of Andrew Daly, the Democratic candidate for warden. City-Clerk Fred W. Clair was sent for and altered the ballots with a lead pencil. There was a grave ques tion as to the legality of this proceed ing. The incident was a matter of general regret and caused much uneasiness throughout the city and no little ill feeling in Ward 1. The official ballots were printed at the office of the Wat erville Morning Sentinel. In Ward 3 there was further diffi culty. The first package of ballots opened by the ward officers, supposed to contain 60 ballots, contained an ex tra ballot. Later in the afternoon four Ward 2 ballots were found in a pack age in Ward 3. and when the votes were counted it was found that three Ward 2 ballots had been cast, one for the Democratic candidates and two for the Republican candidates in that ward. There was nothing to do but to count the votes for the head of the tick et, and return the extra votes for the candidates in Ward 2, but of course they could not be counted. The follow ing was the result: VOTE FOR MAYOR. Wo rd Ward Ward Ward Ward Ward Ward e .1X5 -MS .10'; ,17 .231 .110 83 Totals .10sS WARD 1. Mayor—Charles II. Barton, Dem., 173; Luther G.

Refuses to Disclose the Nature of His Latest Plans. Non' York. March 4.—A remark which John D. Rockefeller made to several reporters before starting for Augusta, Ga., today, led to the publication of a report that he contemplated another large gift to the cause of education or philanthropy. In excusing himself to the reporters, Mr. Rockefeller said: i “I have matters of great importance to discuss with my son, matters of more importance to the public in the future than any chance remarks I might make just now.” “Do you mean that you contemplate the announcement of another bequest to the cause of education?” was asked. "All I can say,” Mr. Rockefeller re plied, "is that I have something in mind which I believe will be of great benefit to the public." CONDENSED DISPATCHES.

A party of Augusta fishermen was out at Little Togus pond recently and brought back a string of 14 pickerel, which was pretty good considering that the party fis-hed but a short time. They found the snow very deep in the woods and it took nearly an hour to get down to the lond. The ice in the pond was reported to be 20 inches in thickness.

The Casavant Cloutier Co. ■will make quite a change in their business the last of the month in the way of practically doing away with the deliv ery of goods from the store by the tak ing off of two of their delivery teams, and by running the store on a strictly cash basis. Goods will after that time be sold for cash only, and prices will be regulated accordingly. The company thinks that by the above means the business can be conducted to the sat isfaction of both the dealers and the purchasers. Fifield Bros, are getting out a lot of their Capital engines to be used In motor boats during the coming sea son. These engines are becoming more popular each season, and a number of them are now lxnng furnished to be sent to Hath, where the firm has an agency. It looks as if there, would be quite a lot of small boats on the river and the lakes this season which will lie driven by motor power, from the fact that quite a number of orders have been received by the firm for two horsepower motors, some 15 or 20 in all. Owners of liangelcys or otiher row boats now want power in them, and it is to tills that the demand for the light motors is due.

Too often it is true that the sick “last only till spring.” But if the system is fortified, if the impuri ties are driven from the blood, and the nerve tissues fed with wholesome and strength-giving food medicine, there is no danger in the change of seasons. Father John’s Medicine is invaluable as a tonic in the spring. It strengthens the system and drives out the poisonous waste matter— builds up the body, it is this power that has made it so successful in cur ing colds and all throat and lung troubles. N'o weakening stimulants, morphine or other dangerous drugs. HELPED THE BABY. Father John’s Medicine is doing my baby a world of good. She was very thin and had bronchial trouble. She is picking up nicely. I have also rec ommended it to my neighbors. (Signed) Mrs. Kellelier, 33 First Ave. New York City. AMUSEMENTS. Harcourt Comedy Co., Next Week.

Special program for la dies and children. “Piff Paff Pouf,” Friday. “Nothing succeeds like success,” and of all the musical comedy successes of the past 23 years no work of this kir.d has been produced which has equalled the popularity of Strange, Jerome and Schwartz s “Piff Paff Pouf,” B. C. Whitney's musical cock tail, which will be the offering at the Opera House, Friday, March 8. Last year this merry work played nearly all the big cities in the country and everywhere met with the most flatter ing reception. The reason for “Piff Paff Pouf’s” popularity is easily found. In the first place it is genu inely witty. The fun is clean, there la not a line at which even the most captious could take offense. The other reason is in the music. From the opening chorus until that sung as the curtain is going down on the final act there is a flow of melody which not only please.s the ear, but nlso is of the duality which onco heard is not easily forgotten.

Because they’re made of the purest drugs— but not that alone. Because the most skilled pharmacists that can be employed make them—but not that alone. Because they are based on the prescriptions of the most successful physicians in the world—but not that alone. Because they represent the combined wisdom and experience of over a thousand of the fore most retail druggists in this country, of which we are one,—but not that alone. All these things have been indispensable. They CURE—that’s why. Every one of the three hundred REXALL Remedies is a tested and proved success for the particular ailment it is designed to cure—onejor each human ill. They’re not “cure-alls.” Not patent medicines, either—we’ll tell you the formula of any one of them if you want to know it. We can hold up any REXALL Remedy be fore you and honestly say: “We know what this is made of and all about it. It has cured thou sands. It will cure you. Our reputation, the pos ses a of your good will, our whole business existence depends on this REXALL Remedy giving satisfaction to you.” Isn’t that w hat you want to buy, rather than the sort for which you can hold no one in sight re sponsible A few of the TOO famous REXALL Remedies, one tor each human ill, are: re* HESVES AMERICAWTIS ELIXIR The Rexall Americanitis Elixir is aton ic nerve foud composed chiefly of free Phosphorus, Glvcophosphates, Iron Pyro phosphate and CaHsava. The wonderful results of this remedy ara due to the fact that it supplies I’hosplior o is to the nerve tells in a condition in which it can be immediately and easily taken up by them. The Glycophosphates, a.-tua! nerve tis sue builders, are ore of the most recent and valuable additions to this branch of medicine and i.ntjues'.ionably a more effi cient remedy than the veil-known ilypo phosphites. The Iron Pyrophosphates are the most easily assimilated lorn of iron which give tone and color, and the combined alkaloids of Calisaya Hark have a t. nic eilecl on al most all the functions of the body. 70c. and jljQ a bottle. -*v Sjl REXALL S3” T0M1C The famous Rexall “93'’ Hair Tonic is composed in chief of llesorcin, lieta Naph tholand Pilocavpin. Resorcin is one of th? Intent and most effective germ killers discoveied by science, and in connection with Reta Naphthol, which is both germicidal and antiseptic, a combination is formed which not only destroys the germs which rob the hair of its nutriment, but creates a clean and healthy condition of the scalp, which pre vents the development of new germs. Pilocarpin is a well known agent for re storing the hair to its natural color, where tHe loss of color has been due to a disease of the scalp. It is not a coloring matter or dye. This combination of curatives mixed with alcohol as a stimulant, perfects the most effective remedy for hair and scalp troubles known today.
