Found by Officers, Hiding Under Bed In Deserted Camp. Weary and Hungry, He Submits Peacefully to Arrest. Ellsworth, Me., April 9.—William Steadman, wlio Lroke out of the coun ty jail on the night of March 98 and escaped after committing a murderous assault upon High Sheriff D. H. Mayo in the prison stable, was captured to day in a camp near Milbridge by Deputy Sheriff Joseph B. Swanton of Milbridge. The information reached here in a brief dispatch to Sheriff Mayo and no particulars were given. Milbridge is in the southwestern corner of Washington county and about 30 miles from Ellsworth. Since he gained his liberty Steadman lias been persistently followed by county and local officials and his capture was considered only a matter of time. He made a hard fight to get away, but was handieaped by cold weather and at least two snow storms, one of which occured last night. Steadman was being held on the charge of horse stealing, for the supreme court, which Later it was learned that the camp in which Steadman was taken was an unoccupied structure on a meadow and hidden by dense woods just out side of Milbridge. His presence was revealed by smoke rising from the chimney. Deputy Swanton searched the building and found Steadman hid ing beneath a bed. He offered no re sistance and irt fact was glad enough to abandon his efforts to make good his escape. He is to be brought here on the train arriving at 10.00 o'clock tonight. Steadman was being held for the grand jury on the charge of horse stealing. His only grievance, so far as known, was that the slieritf denied him the use of a pack of playing cards. Steadman has an ugly temper. Sheriff Mayo is of the opinion that Steadman's real purpose was to kill him. Several weeks ago Steadman, who is a big, powerful fellow, began to act suspiciously and Sheriff Mayo was on his guard whenever he entered the jail. Two weeks ago, another prisoner informed him that Steadman was watching an opportunity to kill him. A search of Steadman's cell disclosed a heavy iron bar and other pieces of Iron taken from his bed which would be murderous weapons. Since then Steadman had been denied the free dom of the corridor and was locked in his cell on the upper tier adjoining the side wall of the jail. Steadman dug a Pole through the wall, dropped to a pile of wood and then, instead of escaping, concealed himself in the stable to await the sheriff, whose habit? he knew. He broke the electric light switch and when the sheriff entered In the dark knocked him down by a blow on the head which rendered 1 iin unconscious. A severe scalp wound was inflicted, but it was not serious. A table leg which was used, was broken into pieces. Steadman then disappeared. The officers have been close on his Hail ever since, and finally rounded their man up Tuesday. ITS OWN WATER SYSTEM. Livermore Falls Votes That It Will Try That System. Livermore Kails.

JEROME TO ARGOE TODAY. Mr. Delmas’ Presentation of Thaw’s Side a Masterly One==Case May (Jo to the Jury Tonight. New York, April 0.—One more day and the concluding chapter of the trial of Harry K. Thaw for the murder of Stanford White will have been written into history. With an appeal to both the written and the "unwritten law" fur the justification of his client, Mr. Dolmas concluded his exhaustive sum ming up address to the jury this af ternoon. When court convenes to morrow morning at 11.30 o'clock—one hour later than usual—District Attor ney Jerome (will go before the jury and in a 3-or 4-hour address is expected to make a plea which will be accounted one of the best efforts of his life. Jus tice Fitzergerald would not say whe ther or not he would charge the jury directly following the district attor ney’s closing remarks, but the general impression is that lie will do so. In that event there seems little doubt hut that the ease will he turned over to the jury by tomorrow evening. With the exceptions of the moments when he was reading from testimony Mr. Dolmas’ speech today was of sus tained oratory. lie threw about the form of Harry Thaw the cloak of chivalrous knighthood. “Why,” no shouted, “should v.e who admire the chivalry of the knights of the middle ages who went about redressing wrongs and rescuing maidens in dis tress. withhold out sympathy from this brave nan.'" iSittoriy the attorney again assailed Stanford While, tie declared Whit ••eight to play with t!i" girl so long ns nor bounty remained and then woul-l have thrown her away "Dike a dirty rag to Hunt down life’s sewer to a "(••Hi i»i tli. t> ittcr'g .\;t i11 h'- said "Usu ry Thaw had snatched the }?irl from the "hi lecher •.vhi» saw in lur but si toy f" gratify si moment's lust ami then east aside go her way dawn the paths of fallen women."

Mr. Carvan suggested that the argument was taking to wide a scope and Justice Fitzgerald called Mr. Dei inas’ attention to the fact. Thaw seemed tonight to be in the best, of spirits and declared to his law-I yeis In the Tombs that lie felt bis easel was won. He seemed to have no drea 1 of the assault of the district attorney! tomorrow. Tliere was a report today that Mr* i Jerome was ill. but he appeared at his j office during the afternoon and said i he had been busy for two days prepar ing his argument, in view of the dis trict Attorney’s remarks liefore the i lunacy commission that Thaw is today hopelessly insane. much interest attaches to the line of argument he he will pursue in asking for the man’s! conviction. Despite the inclement weather—a snowstorm raging without—the court room was lx sieged fully an hour before the time fix d for the opening. a large percentage of tlv* would-be spec-tutors being women. With much difficulty the polii-o succeeded in keeping the crowd down to the actual seating capacity so that although every available bit of space was occupied, good order pre vailed while Mr. Delmas was making his appeal to the jurors. Members of the Thaw family, includ ing Evelyn Thaw. as usual, were among the early arrivals. A new figure appeared in the Thaw group today, that of Mrs. Edward Thaw, who ac companied her husband and sister-in law. the Countess of Yarmouth. Mr. anti Mrs. Carnegie were ulso present. When Mr. Delmas arose to resume his argument he-told the jury he would endeavor to he as brief as possible in order to relieve them of their onerous duties as speedily as consistent with I the responsibilities resting upon him. "When I am done." said Mr. Delmas. “I shall give the fate of my c lient Into jour hands with evtrj' confidence.” Mr. Delmas said it would be neces sary to east a rapid glance over his re marks yesterday in order to connect the trend of his argument. The attorney sketched again briefly what he termed the “slid and deplorable sto-y of two young people—a mishap ha ving overtaken one f them w hile she was shill a child." “The las! ac t of this life drama re mains to I o enac ted." he continued. The state, Mr. Delmas said, had at tempted to set the scene for this last act tiicon llimsy superstructure of an aflulavit dictated by a felon—a man i convicted of neriiirv Hr. L)(ln;:\s quoted briefly from the speech of District Attorney Jerome, I when Abraham Hummel was up for I sentence. At that time Mr. Jerome I urged the maximum penalty of the law j on the ground that Hummel “had been a menace to the community for 20 years.” Mr. Dolmas next revised the j story of Evelyn Xesbit told upon the I witness stand. “You know, gentlemen of the jury, that no human imagination ever in vented such a story. You know that no actor could have stood as she did un flinchingly all the tests known to skill ed lawyers to olicite the truth, unless she was telling the absolute truth." Mr. Dolmas continued: “Relying up on intelligence of you gentlemen. 1 will take it as a fixed fact hen-enoth that the story site told was true as she told it. “T shall now proceed in an effmt to j depict to your eyes tiie effect of this story on the mind of Harry If. Thaw. I shall till you the story in Evelyn's own words, the words you heard her use on tlie stand.” “Mr. Delmas then read fhe young i woman’s story of Thaw's actions wiem in Paris in lltfi.'l she told him her story, hew lie walked the floor and bit his nails and sobbed. He also real that portion of her testimony in which sh said she had refused his offer of mar riage because she loved him so much that, she would not drag him down. “Sublime renunciation" says the sneering district attoi nty in an effort (Continued on Page Two.) AN EARLY FIRE Causes Heavy Damage at League Island Navy Yard. Valuable Patterns and Furniture For the Kansas Burned. Fire at Amsterdam, N. Y., Causes a Loss of $50,000. Philadelphia, April 9.—One of the large buildings in the League Island navy yard, containing the saw mill, joiner's shop and pattern shop, was al most entirely destroyed by tire early today. Officers at the yard estimated the loss between $70,000 and $100,000. The fire was discovered by a watch man. who turned in the larm. Despite the efforts of the fire fighters, tho t structure was soon enveloped in flames and the interior of the building was completely destroyed. Many patterns for the equipment of vessels of the lvivy were burned and they will be dif ficult to replace. Much of the furniture intended for the battleship Kansas was stored in the building and was destroyed. The Kansas was to have been placed in commission within a few days and it is thought that the loss of the furni ture will rlel.av liie reremonv.

Washington, April 9— The discovery of a m w counterfeit $10 (Buffalo) United J-'tatcs note, is announced by is of tlio sories of 1301, cheek letter A, Lyons, register, Roberts, treasurer. This counterfeit is apparently print ed from wood cut plates of excellent workmanship, on two pieces of good quality paper, between which heavy pieces of silk, have been distributed. The number of the note at hand is 3.532,734. This number compares fav orably with the genuine both as to color and formation of figures. The seal is somewhat darker than tho genuine. The large “X" with super imposed “Ten" is crimson instead of pink. There is an entire absence of cross lino work in the shading of tho letter rind in the medallions contain ing the pi rtraits of I-ewis and Clarke. These portraits are poorly executed. Tin re is a%period instead of a comma after Washington on the left hand face of the note. A new counterfeit $20 national bank note ims also been discovered on tho first National Rank of Hereford, Texas.

THE THAW TRIAL. (Continued from Page One.) to make you believe that this story is not true, that it is impossible.” went on Mr. Del-lias. ‘‘But I shall prove to you beyond the slightest doubt that she did refuse him and refused him for that reason and that reason alone. Man, it may be. has not that great power of renunciation, but in the gentler breast of woman do we find that great gift of God and in the breast of this little girl existed this great strength that enabled her to put aside her love when she knew it was for the good oi the one -lie loved.” Mr. Delmas then referred to and read abstracts from the letters which Thaw ■wrote to Attorney Longfellow in Sep tember, 1503. In this letter Thaw wrote that he had proposed marriage to Eve lyn but she had refused point blank, because ‘‘she said it would shut me out from my relatives.” “The genuineness of this letter." Mr. Diinas argued, "cannot be denied. What then did it mean when Thaw wrote to Mr. Longfellow that Evelyn would not marry him? “Is it not-true that she lefused him? Thaw wrote that she thought first and then rejected his offer. Yes she thought. She looked upon the man she loved, she looked upon her own past and she did not want to bring re proach upon the man who would hate married her. “Down in her little and noble heart she said: ‘Harry, 1 love you and be cause 1 love you 1 do not want to tie my unfortunate existence Hi yours, so that neonle would point the linger of scorn at you; I want to leave you tree ar.il the moment you think it is be.-t lor you X will go my sad way. I will go hack and earn my own living and you shall be free and honored.' •‘Yes. she thought. The sneer of the district attorney is unjustified. The lit tle girl did sacrifice h«rself. did rise to the heights of sublime renunciation. Mr. Dolmas here read from Mrs. Wil liam I’haw's testimony and went on: “Did that venerable gray-haired mother intent this story which she says her son told her? Ur did he tell an untruth when he confided to his loved mother and told her that he loved this girl and wanted to devote his life to her? And all this time that little girl was using the talents God had given her to make a living for- herself, refusing to marry tiie wealthy mail who loved h’-r and whom she loved, be cause she thought it was for the best for him. Oh, sublime self-abnegation.” Mr. Deltnas then read from Evelyn's testimony recalling the portions of her story in which she told of the effect of her story on Thaw’s mind and how dur ing the months in which she was with him in Europe1 his mental suffering seemed to increase. “Such was tiie condition of Harry Thaw's mind when in the fall of 190 he parted from Evelyn Nesbit in Eu rope and sent her back to New York ahead of him. There, gentlemen, you have the first dawn of the mental con oition which manifested itself three vn>ip« nftora’j'nl. “The foundations of his reason were undermined. The storm had not burst, tint the elouds were gathering from the four points of the compass and from them the lightning ami thunder were t,> hurut in three years and astounded the world."

He told that mother that th-j story was one he could not repeat to her. but soon by a mother's art she won her way inlo her son's soul and little by lit tle he told the story.

Here is a simple prescription, as given by an eminent authority on Kidney diseases and Rheuma I tism: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce: Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Take a teaspoonful after each meal and at bedtime. A well-known local druggist is authority that these ingredients are harmless and easily mixed at home by shaking well in a j bottle. He also states that he has been advised by many of his patrons that this i prescription has a peculiar lieal ing and soothing effect upon the 1 entire Kidney and Urinary struc ture, often overcoming the worst j forms of Backache and Bladder weakness in just a little while, i This mixture is said to remove all blood disorders and relieve Rheumatism. Thaw at this time, of how she refused to see him but finally how they met and she found the stories she had heard were not true. Mr. Delmas declared the stories about Thaw's alleged wrong doing were invented to protect White from the wrath he felt was to come. “When Harry Thaw had convinced Evelyn that those stories were not irue, hope began to dawn again in his heart. The two hearts that God had intended should be one. were ap that blessed night of December ‘-‘4, 1503, Stanford White in a room in the lofty tower he had builded, had spread a banquet in honor of the birthday of his child victim. It was his hope* to lure tiie girl back once again and to resume the awful work he had done. “but that night the brave man who had devoted his life to tile interests of this girl, snatched her from the snares of disgrace—snatched her from the old lecher who saw in her hut a toy to gratify a moment's lust and then be cast aside to go on her way down the paths of fallen women.” Mr. Delmas' oratory held the wrapt attention of the courtroom. “After Thaw had rescued Lvelyn Horn White in 1903 lie feared thence forth that the architect had designs upon his life and that once he was re moved the girl would “be left unpro tected at the mercy of her ravislier." “The scandalous articles which ap peared in the papers tending to de grade him.” said Mr. Delmas. Thaw attributed to White's agency. He be gan to believe that his life was in danger—that lie would be attacked by thugs. He felt lie would die ail un natural death." Mr. Delmas then turned to the events late in 1904. "in 1904 we iind a second capital i operation was performed upon this young girl. When she was convales cent tiie man who for four years had I' H t'u ll lating to the girl in the pie incident. Ho also read the testimony regarding what Thaw told her of the other girls who, he said, were the victims of White. In support of his contention that Thaw took a sincere Interest in the welfare o' the girl .whomi he believed to have been wronged by White. Mr. Delmas produced the codicil in which Thaw set aside thousands of dollars “to vindicate and redeem and rescue from a. life of infamy the various victims of Stanford White. In the efforts of Harry Thaw to pro tect the community against the pollution of Stanford White did not even end with the provisions of the will and the codicil. In the early part of 1906 he wrote a letter to Anthony Comstock, under whose special charge ho believed the morals of this community had been placed, iteiling of Stanford White and his band and of their dens where they enticed young girls and deflowered therm "It was with such thoughts in his mind, waging a battle for American woman hood and humanity, and baffled by wealth and social position. It was with these thoughts on life mind that Harry Thaw met Sanford White In 1906. •‘You remember the incident at Daly’s theatre when Harry Thaw and his wife mid a friend sat in a box and Stanford White ame into a box opposite them. I IViien Harry Thaw looked into those eyes which had leered on Hie h >'>r mangled tern! cf the r.email litiide him, those eyes into which so many girls hail gazed as they went down to ruin, liis lace be came as chalk and his iwhole lorm trem bled with emotion. You have heard that Story—heard it from the trembling lips of Evelyn herself.” .Mr. Delmas referred to other demon strations of agitation on the part of Thaw until finally Evelyn came to the conclusion that Harry had become insane on the subject of Stanford White. “And it was true,” emphatically de clared the speaker, “the man who had brooded on this subject for three years could not be human to retain the calm ness of his reason. Gentlemen, place yourselves in his place; picture to your selves the horrors he went through and do justice to Harry Thaw.” it was 12.30 o'clock and Mr. Delmas an nounced that he found that it twiii be impossible for him to conclude by the usual recess time as he had expected to do. and asked aha: a recess be taken un til 2 o'clock. Mr. Gurvan announced that there we- no objection as Air. Jerome did not wish begin hi.-' address until to morrow nainnig. 'I ll" recess was then ordired. Alter iv. ess .Mr. Delmas brought his narrative down to the events of the night of the tragedy—the 25th of June last. lie tcld of Thaw and his wife dining at the Cafe Martin with Truxton Beale and Thomae AlcCr.leb. He told of White coming into the room. Thaw did not see him, but when Stanford AVhite left the place the young woman called for a pen cil and wrote a note to her husband. saying: "The b- was here a moment ago but went out again.” Mr. Delmas continued. "Thaw had bought four tickets for a roof garden entertainment that evening, lie went there .with his party, on the iway picking up another friend who occupied one of the scats, leaving Air. Thaw with out a seat. He. being of nervous tem perament. walked about, looking for an other seat. This he found beside the ■n ituess Smith who has testified before you. and sat there about half an hour en gage d in conversation.

His scheme is for a dash-handicap event, the slowest horse to start from the wire and the remainder to be set back of the wire a certain number of yards, according to their merits judged by record or known speed ability. Rec ords will not be taken as a standard entirely, as in the ease of a horse which has been in the stud for a few season and is not up to his record form. This will put a lot of responsi bility on the handicapper in placing the starters.

Some of the strike breakers were jeered by passing union ists, but there was no actual disorder. A strong escort of police accompanied itho non-unionist teamsters. Another firm, ft. Presby Co., was struck today. The firm had 10 teams and about 1C drivers. The reason for this firm being included in the so-called “un fair’’ list by the teamsters was because of the allegation that the firm had at tempted to assist other firms against whom a strike was in force. One of the struck lirms, M. Doyle Co. of KoxlHiry, signed the union agreement today and the 10 employes wiio had been out returned to work. Several teams wen deserted by strike breakers on Congress street tuis fore noon. The steamer Lake Champlain. Cap tain Webster, u-liich arrived at i?t. John. X.

THE DAY’S DOINGS IN THE WORLD OF SPORTS. BASEBALL No Member of Teem Will Manage the Pilgrims. Jake Stahl Holds Conference With President Johnson. The Lewiston Maine State League Team Is Fully Made Up. Canton. O., April 9—Pres. John I. Taylor of the Boston Americans left Monday night for New York, where he znay select a manager for the team. Rain that fell at intervals in the last two days made the hall grounds here unfit for play Monday afternoon and the game between the Boston Americans and the Canton team of the Central League was postponed. Just before he went aboard a train for New Y'ork, Mr. Taylor said: *'I have not yet decided upon a man ager for the Boston Americans, and I might add that I shall not do so until I reach New York and have a confer ence with several men whom 1 have itt view for the position. "In all probabilities I shall withhold the announcement until the day befor• we are scheduled to open the season in Philadelphia on Thursday. “I shall, though, take you into my confidence to the extent of saving that no member of the team is being consid ered or will be given the position. ‘‘The new manager will without doubt be an East-rii man. but as I have applications from a number of baseball men in the East 1 cannot even mention their names.” When asked whether le- was consid ering Empires “Silk" O'Loughl'm or Hank O'Day for the position. Mr. Tay lor simply smiled and slid: “Now. 1 have told you till that 1 can at resent time." Third Baseman Collins went to Buf falo to rest until the -easou opens. He ■will rejoin thf Harold Irish to play in the outfield Imd in the pitcher's box cm the Lewiston baseball team lias been received, and complete Manager Hcald's team. Irish's contract was received Monday night When Irish was in Lewiston, and follow ed close upon tin- contracts of Frank Goode, who plays second base, and Jo t Neptune, who will go in the field. Neptune will be used in center field. White Irish will be tried out at least as pitcher. «nd if be make? good against some of the older men he may be re tained in that position. The full lineup of the team is now at hand and is as follows: I ’ateliers, Mona han anil Gebhardt; pitchers, Sparks. Griffin, Merrill and Irish: first base. Car trigan; second base. Goode; short-top. iWiiiaes; tin ml hasp, VVortirwood; left field Bouvier; and center field. Neptune Tin other field iwill be one of the catchers or one of the extra pitchers.

Dropping Out of Biddeford Will Not Seriously Affect State League. Uiddebml lias decided not to he in the Maine State Baseball League and the action of tne York county city will not cause any tears to be sited over in this direction. In far t, it lias been gen erally felt that the league would he stronger without Biddeford titan with it and the only reason why it lias been planned to allow that city representa tion in the league lias been because of the desire of certain parties in tiiat city to bo represented. It was felt that con cessions would have to be made to Bid deford and the league did this in draw ing up the schedule. Now, however. Biddeford inen who have the control of the grounds in that city say that they would prefer to have independent ball this coming season and they can have it. Manager Paige of the Bangor team says that the league will be much stronger without Biddeford and that he is considerably relieved by learning that that city will not be in the league. The only regret expressed is that the Biddeford men did not make up their minds before the league schedule was drawn up as it will now be necessary |o do that work all over. It is possible that some of the mana gers will now favor a four-club league rather than a five-club one. but it is probable that a five-club schedule will be drawn up. If there are five clubs In the league it will of course be neces sary that one club shall lay off each |Uyt but this will give a fine opportu sa FRANK JUNKS. }b*nib*-r of List Year’s A111i«•:» T u.-.. 1-i. lfj.T and Hitter Wli-n .d uiag* Wr Mtli lias Signed.

"When the Biddeford proposition came up at the league meeting the question r.s to whether it would not be better to go ahead with a five club league then to try to do anything fur ther with the York town, was debated at considerable length. It was thought with a five club league the open dates could be filled in advantageously with independent clubs. It was finally de cided. however, for the different mana gers to guarantee the lease of the Biddeford grounds, put in a manager there and have him sign a team. "If the present owners of the Bidde ford club decide to go into the league they .will, of course, be welcomed, but if not the schedule will be re-arranged McGratv says that Mathewson has entirely recovered from last year's ill ness and is fully as good, if not a trifle better, than the year before. The Washingtons had not played in Cincinnati for eight years, and then the rain caused the tailing off of the sched uled game in that city Saturday. Connie Hack refused to waive claim t» Catcher Krwin of Detroit, and this makes j it necessary for the latter club to carry I the player instead of farming him out. Frank Delal^nty will doubtless join I the New York Americans in Baltimore. Chase will report in Washington, but may be unable to be on hand in the opening game. Catcher Flank Buwerman was most tn- j thusiastic in his rating of Inllelder Mul- len. who same to the Giants from Ealti- j more, yet he is to be relegated to the minors. According to the Chicago Record Herald tiie Giants are the only real livnl of the Cubs in the coming pen nant race. The Record-Herald as serts that the other National League te'-ms concede the 1907 pennant to Chicago. Boston Herald: The New York Tribune man says it is nui a dangerous prophecy to make of the Brooklyns that they will be in the van from the first. Down this way it strikes one tiiat prophecies are al ways dangerous. There was a world's series last year. One of tiie Chicago baseball scribes pre dicts that Boston's worst in tile American I-eaguc race this year will be sixth. Ho figures this on tiie condition of the pitch ing stuff and the new life that will be put in the team by Origer and by Un glanl) and Wagner in tiie infield. Lijoie's bunch is up against the usual run of hard luck. Several of tiie players have been injured in spring practice so that tlieir playing abilities are seriously impaired and some of them so badly that they will not be able to take part in the opening series. all the young Cincinnati players develop into the fast aggregation they are expected to become, they will cer taiiily do some fancy stunts: in tiie! j the team while they are in the develop I in*; process is a matter of conjecture. According to one of the -war corre j sjxn'dertts who has been chasing the New York Americans in the South, ginger has been lacking in the practice of the team. This has been uue to the mishaps and the comparatively easy games. Orth, Hogg, Doyle and Hughes are in prime condition. Hugh Jennings calls attention to the showing made by Cleveland with all their hitting, yet losing last season to the weakest hitters in the American League. Jennings should make a note of the han dicaps the Clevelands have had year af ter year owing to crippled ball players. Tint will do more to break up- a team than any other thing, outside of bad management. Connie Mack says the series between tlv- Phillies and the Athletics will not show what his club will do later on. “My men are not yet warmed up to their work," says he. “It is positively too early to make any assertion about any team.

BOWDOIN COLLEGE. Snowfall Stops Outside Work and Sends Ball Team Back to Cage. Brunswii-k. Me. April 9—(Special). —Bowdoin College opened Tuesday morning with eliapel exercises after the Easter vacation of 10 days.

No new courses will be introduced this term and the work w ill follow the lines s to subject mat ter as in the past term.

Miss Harris an Easy Winner at Boston Skating Rink. York. April —At an executive committee meeting of tlie Women's Eastern Golf Association, held here Monday, it was decided to hold the sec ond annual championship tournament on the links at Atlantic City, June 11 and It’. This will be followed on June 13 and 14 by the tri-city contests for the Uriscom trophy, which is at present held by the Women's Golf Association of Philadelphia. Members of the executive committee present were Mrs. E. F. Sanforu, Mrs. Caleb Fox and Miss Francis C. Gris com, Philadelphia: Miss Georgeanna Bishop. Brooklawn, and Miss Louisa A. Wells of Boston. As was expected, Boston wanted the attraction because it had waived its claim to it last year. On the other hand. Philadelphia made its claim on the grounds that the team matches arc due there this year. The Merion Cricket Club of Philadelphia, tlie Oakley C. C. and the Country Club of Brookline of fered their courses lor the double at traction. After discussing the matter at length a compromise oil Atlantic City was agreed upon. The association received tuiuiar Jitv uauuu uuiu miuuuv a year ago. Miss Griscom, who is chairman of tile handicap committee, reported that of the 72 clubs in the association favorable replies had been received from 50. Up to date a total of 407 names has been received, so it is certain that the first official list of the association will con tain more than 400 names. IN QUICK TIME. Ormonde's Right Captures Handicap At the Benning Track. Washington, April 9.—As a horse race the most interesting event on the card of the Washington Jockey Club at Benning Monday was the handicap at 7'i fur longs which conlluded the program. By the scratching of Oxford Hoaslip and Old Colcny. the race was reduced to a three-horse affair. Faust, with Mil ler up. was a receding favorite, while Ormonde’s Right, ridden by McDaniel, iwas always in stiong demand. Sailor Boy broke fust and made the pace tor half a mile. On the turn he was overhauled by the favorite and Or monde's Right. Tn the stretch the latter came away and won by a length in l.:;7 1-3, .within a fifth of a second of the course record. Jockey Miller made his first appearanc after a week’s enforced idleness in the! second race. His mount, Awless, cut no figure, the winner being Beckon, with Merry Man second and Long Bail third Chippewa, as good as 10 to 1. took the first race, with Wabash Queen second and Jack McKeon, the favorite, third. Lord Boanerges proved himself a good sprinter in the third by winning in a drive from Workmaid. with Anna May third. Golf Ball, the favorite, was far back. Miller's only winning mount of the day was Anna Smith in the fourth. The place went to Cousin Kate, while Kankakee lasted long enough to get third. Monacodor was pressed hard in the fifth but cculd not get his stride. Cob mosa, the favorite, won in a drive from Delphie, with Dekaber in third position. i MISS HARRIS WINS. Champion Woman Roller Skater Up holds Her Prowess At Boston. Boston. April 9.—Cora Harris, cham pion woman skater of the world, had liltle trouble in winning the 3-mile handicap race at the Park Square rink last evening against a field of eight starters. Miss Harris caught Peggy O'Connor and May Cornet after seven laps of hard plugging, and after a few to allow out-of-door work for at least 10 days. Meanwhile the baseball men will take up cage practice again and the track men will work in the gym nasium. Coach Morrell of the track ttain was much disappointed to have I he track work delayed as the time for getting into condition for the Maine meet is shorter than usual and this delay of a week or so will make considerable difference in getting the men into shape. i no norK or the baseball team on the trip to Massachusetts and New York state was very encouraging and Couch Irwin and Oapt. Piles were very much pleased with the way the new men played. The team seems to be strong in the batting line and especial ly di'l the new men on tile team show up well in this line. It is greatly re gretted that John Manter will be out of college for the next few weeks as he played an excellent game at second base on the trip un i his absence from the team will make it necessary that a new man be developed for the posi tion. The next game will be with Tufts at Brunswick Wednesday, April 17. and as this is the first home game un doubtedly a very large crowd will wit ness it. WILL PLAY BOWDOIN. Pop Williams' Team Will Probably Meet College Boys Patriots’ Day. Portland, Me., April 9.—Pop Wil liams' bunch is practically selected for the game with Bowdoin at Pine Tree park _>n Patriots day.

Bangor, Me., April 9.—The annua! l meeting of the Gentlemen's Driving j club was held Monday night at the Pe nobscot Exchange and was well at tended. The reports of the officers and committees show the club to be in a very good financial condition after the building of the new speedway at Ml. 1 Hope avenue and the prospects for the coming season is bright. Tlie election*'of officers resulted in the election of practically the same board as served last year. They are us follows: Charles R. Brown, president; Philo A. Strickland and Oscar A. Fick ett, vice president; Sam T. White, treasurer; Dr. C. F. Dwinal, secretarj George W. Weseott. Fred T. Hall, Charles Phillips, Dr. F. E. Maxfield, P. H. McNamara and James W. Cratty, directors; Ebon Leavitt, Harvy Bowles and Charles Phillips, track committee. There was an inlonnal discussion of plans for the coming summer and judg ing by tlie interest taken the coming season will lie a very successful one for tlie club. As soon as tlie snow is off the speedway on Mt. Hope avenue and tlie ground is in condition to be worked tlie speedway will be completed and put into ttie best possible condition for summer racing. All the meets of the c!ub during the summer will be held on the speedway. Plans are already being talked up for several matched races between horses owned by members of the club and it is probable that meets of this kind will be of very frequent occurrence on the speedway during the coming season. At the Penobscot Exchange next Monday night, the Driving club will hold a ban quet and it is expected that plans for the summer will be more fully dis cussed at that time. Y. M. C. A.

Johnson, in throwing four goals the score -was in its favor at the end of the second half. The High school team succeeded in laging three field goals, two of them by Cook and one by Jones, and had Cook been as sure as Johnston on the foul goals the score would have been differ ent. The crowd that attended the game was the largest and noisiest that has been seen in the gymnasium for many years and feeling ran high at all stages of the game. U. Ul- IYI. VS. UAKTIViOUTM. Next Fall's Football Game May Be Played on Portland Grounds. Portland. Me., April 9.—The mana gement of the University of Maine Foot Ball (Association is negotiating with Dartmouth for a game to be played on Pine Tree park next fall. It is under stood that the Hanover management has not fully decided as to their end of the matter, but it is probable, however, that the green stockinged warriors from the hills of New Hampshire will come here. This would be one of the greatest drawing cards ever brought to Portland in the line of gridiron battles. Dartmouth is now considered one of the greatest foot 'ball colleges in the country and besides there are many alumni in this city. Practically all the foot ball enthu siasts in the State would oonie on for a contest between Maine and the Han overians, and both as a society and •sporting affair it would he the event of the season.

Rawson second base, and Edgar and Griffin will be the catchers. w*. v.»u.j »111 iiiitii une Kellie. Frank Ham may have a tryout in the Howdoin same, but this is not a cer tainty. since the management would prefer to try out a man in a little less important contest. Ham’s friends be lieve he will more than make good when he docs try-out, however. A very promising youngster an nexed is Griflin, catcher of the last sea son’s Mohawk team; this colt has all the ear marks of a comer, is a stocky, well-made backstop with a god throw and a good batter. The management is at work on the schedule, w’hich will be out before long. Williams is now at Exeter coaching the Academy team, but will come down es pecially to twirl the Patriots day game.

Heading. Pa.. April Before an au dience* of 1SOO persons Monday night. Hughey McGovern, brother of ex Chan-pion Terry McGovern, gave Mis sissippi, the lighting jockey, a terrible beating. The bout went the limit, lu rounds, but it was only due to “Sip” holding on in the last three rounds that he was able to stay until the end. McGovern fought fiercely from the start, and the colored man was* covered with blood. He was down twice in the seventh, once in the eighth and twice in the ninth round for the count. When the gong sounded for the end of the 10th “Sip” was lying on the ropes. "Sip” could not have gone another round, while the brother of Terry was almost as fresh as when he started. He fought faster than any time that he has ever appeared in this city. Try as he would. “Sip” could not land an effective blow on Hughey. In the semi-windup Johnny Dougherty of Philadelphia broke the jaw of Mickey Ford of Philadelphia in the fourth round of what was to have been an eight-round bout. MOODY WHIPS KEYES. Has His Own Way Throught Six Fast Rounds At Philadelphia. Philadelphia, i'a.. April 9. -In one of Iw-V r.Atoncd fitrhlc DfPP nllllpii Itff at tllM Spring Garden A. C., Willie Moody licit Bert Keyes to a standstill in six rounds. The first two rounds were slam, bang. biff, with honors even. In the third round Keyes felt that lie could swap punches with his sturdy op ponent. and accordingly started to mix it ur> at a lively rate. He caught Moody with a left hand swing on the jaw. which staggered liis opponent for an instant. He shook his head like a bull terrier and waded into Keyes, catching the latter first with a left to the chin and later, the right swing to the jaw which sent Keyes to the ropes. He clinched to avoid a knock-out. but Moody was relentless and kept ham mering away at his body and jaw. giv ing him no quarter. A misunderstand ing on the part of the referee, who thought the bell had rung, probably saved Keyes from a knock-out in the third round. Moody went after Keyes in the fourth round, determined to end th fight. Keyes took enough punishment to knock out several men. He had a clever way of holding on and avoiding many of his opponent's wild swings. It was only these tactics that saved him from a more decisive beating. The fifth and sixth rounds were a repetition of the two preceding one-. Keyes was receiver general with Moody unable to land a punch on the right spot. When the bell rang, end ing tbe bout, Keyes was very- weak, while Moody amlilol to his corner as though the fight had just begun. AFTER BIG GAME. Jack Twin Sullivan Now Wants a Bout With Tommy Ryan. Boston. April 3.—Reports from Cali fornia. where Jack (Twin) Sullivan i now located, have it that the Cam bridge boxer is after big game, and wants to met any one of his weight in the business. Since his quick win over Jack Palmer, the Englishman, he has been seeking a battle with Tommy Ryan for the title which the latter claims to possess. Jack is willing to hang up a side bet in order to entice Ryan into the ring and if the latter ac cepts he will find several clubs ready to accept the bout and stage it. Before Jack O’Brien left Philadelphia the other day for Los Angeles he con veyed to his sister all his real estate, valued at t60,000. paid *2000 to Gatcomb Theobald of that city, owners of the pacing mare. Phalla, 2.04'/j, in full settlement of claims against the city for injuries to the mare due to the caving in of a cul vert on a city street over which she was taking exercise a year ago this month. The 49th ballot for United States sen ator was taken by the Rhode Island Legislature Tuesday without any ma terial change in the result, the deadlock remaining unbroken. It is believed that strong pressure may be brought to bear upon the members of the Legislature to elect a senator within a few days, as the session will end in another week. The vote follows: Goddard 40, Colt 36, Wetmore 29, Utter 1. A dispatch from the Smoky City says: “The Pittsburg baseball team, according to the dope now being smoked, is a trifle better than last year, and that it will finish not lower than third place in the coming race is be lieved.” Marie Fassnauer, a giantress, lias ar rived in London. She is eight feet in height, 150 inches round the chest and weighs 343 pounds. The Evening Standard expresses a hope that she is not a suffragette.

C. in LITTLE, Bankruptcy. aprlOdlt* To-day we want to talk to you about “Catarrh cures” During the past few months we have heen publishing what some of our good friends have called “heart-to-heart talks” on patent medicines. 1 hat name suits us all right—"heart to-heart talks’ is just what we have intended. 1 here can’t be anything more serious to a sick man or sick woman than his ailment and the remedies he or she takes to cure it. Onr talks have been ‘'heart-to-heart.’' Kvery word we have printed has been written in absolute earnestness and sin cerity. and judging from what onr cus tomers tell us, we have not been talking in vain. We are convinced that our frankness has been appreciated, and that our suggestions have been welcomed— wh»eh naturally encourages us to con tinue. rl o-day, and perhaps fbr some time to come, we want to tall: about that big class of remedies known generally as ‘‘ratal rh cures.” Broadly speaking these are the patent medicines that have heen the chief tar gets for Ihe attacks of the “Ladies’ Home Journal,” “Collier’s Weeklv” and other magazines which are waging such a lively warfare against patent medicine abuses. As we have pointed out in previous talks, it is not onr business to pass judg ment on the crusade of these well known, highly-respected publications. The public alone must be the judge and jury. Our business, as we see it, is to carry in stock a eomnlete line of patent medicines, and to sell those medicines ;.t the lowest possible price. e sell hundreds—yes. thousands of bottles of so-called “catarrh cures,’’ and know nothing of their ingredients. The manufacturers advertise them, the public demands them we order them from the manufacturers, and sell them at the low est uric". That is absolutely as far as our knowledge goes. The manufacturer keeps his formula a secret. It may be good, or it may not—we don’t know, and we have no means of finding out. Naturally, we would rather sell a rent edy that we know is right—that we cart hack up with all our reputation for hon estv and square-dealing. And wouldn’t you rather b^ty that kind of a remedy? Wouldn’t you rather hold us responsible than to hold no one responsible? We are right here, right where you can get at us every day in the week, right where one false move on ouc part will bring upon us your condem nation, the loss of your friendship, yottc patronage, your influence. Can we afford to tell you anything that you will lean* later is not absolutely true? Are you not safer in taking our word for the merits of an article, than you are to rely on the printed statement of a pa tent medicine manufacturer, whom yoit never even saw and probably never will3 Common sense most emphatically tells you that we cannot afford to depart on advertise their remedies as a specific for almost every disease under the suit. We have OXE catarrh cure that we are willing to say to you: “We know this is all right. Take it home and use it with the full assurance that if it does not cure you. you can bring it hack to us and we will promptly refund youc money.” That catarrh cure is MUCU-TONE There is no guess work with ns on Rexall Mucu-Tone. lie bnozv zehut it is made of. Not only do we know, but zee zeill give*you a topy of the lonnttlu. There is no secret about any Rexall remedy -—we make them—one thousand of ns leading druggists all over America—in our great co operative laboratories at Boston; Mass. We own the laboratories, and everything in them, and we operate them just as skillfully as our com bined brains and money will let us, and ju=t as honestly as honest men know how. The Ingredients of Mucu-Tone The chief ingredients of Mucu-Tone are Gen tian, Cubcbs, Cascars Sagrada, Glycerine, and Sarsaparilla. Gentian is recognized in medicine ns one of the greatest tonics ever discovered. It is the founda tion on which Mucu-Tone is built. Gentian com bines in high degree the tonic powers of all the known “bitters,” with none of the disadvantages applying to them. Cubcbs have long been recognized as a =pe cdic in the treatment of all catarrhal conditions. Its action is prompt and its benefits almost inva riable. In whatever part of the body the inflamed or diseased condition of the mucous membrane exists, the use of Cubcbs has been recommended by the best physicians for many generations. Cascara Sagrada is especially introduced for its necessary laxative properties. The combination of these with Glycerine and Sarsaparilla makes Mucu-Tone a remedy that at tacks catarrh from every point, gradually restores and rebuilds the diseased tissues to their former health and strength, promotes dipe-tion and cre ates a normal appetite.

In the current number of the New England Magazine George Walker Chamberlain, a Maine born writer, gives an interesting account of tHe ill fated crusade for the redemption of Un Holy Land which was undertaken by a little party of Maine religious en thusiasts 40 years ago. The incident which made a great sensation at the time has been pretty well forgotten here in Maine although there are still living in the State several men who participated in the enterprise. The leader was George Jones Adams, a man possessing some of the characteristics of Sanford and the late “Elijah" Dowie, at least in his ability to secure cash and win deluded followers. Adams appeared in York county in 1S0L’ and for several years made his home in the town of Lebanon when- he preached in the sehoolhouses and pub lished a small religious Journal 'Which be calh-d the “Sword of Truth and the Harbinger of Peace. la-fore coming to Maine, be bail bad a varied career with the Mormons in Illinois and was a candidate for their leadership after Joseph Smith was shot in 1st I, being defeat* d, however, by lirighaio Young. After leaving the Mormons In- was in Massachusetts tor a number of years, but not hading that state a fertile field he fa me to Maine. Ilf traveled from town to town, call ing upon the people to establish a col ony in Palestine, there to await the speedy coining of the Messiah. All through Maine lie preached and gath ered followers, a number also coming to his standard from New Hampshire. JIc did not spend his money in erecting great buildings, as Sanford has done at Shiloh, but proceeded, as soon as lie was able, to charter the Nellie Chapin, a bark f 000 tons, and sailed August II. lSfiil, with ir.8 followers. The point of departure was lonesport in Wash ington county and from that part of the Stall' a great number of tiis follow ers were drawn. The ship was loaded with Maine Itimlier sufficient to erect a chinch, a sclioolliouse and some 20 dwellings for the colorists. The voy age to the coast of Palestine occupied t deserves a careful reading by the taxpayers and parents of our city. Augusta has long been proud, and with good feason, of the work done by its High school. Its reputation for a gen eration has not been second to that of any school of erptal grade in the State of Maine. A line of strong men have been at its head and it has been specially fortunate in its faithful and efficient assistant teachers. It has had also the great benefit of the cordial and united support of the people of our city. There have been very few in stances of parents sending their chil dren away from the city to academies, institutions or secondary schools what ever their designation. They have been content to have their sons and daughters prepare for college or con clude their sehool days in the Cony High school, and year after year the work done in the school has been an ample vindication of this support and this faith. In his report to the directors. Mr. Marshall has much to say about the present work and needs of the school which should be generally understood. His recommendations are sound and should receive careful consideration, especially those tending to strengthen tlie courses pursued by that large- per centage of the students who are not preparing for college. The Cony High school is an institution of Augusta in which we all have an interest and a pride, and a thorough rending of this report will give us alt a better under standing of what it is doing and wliat it aims to do. A Whittier Centennial. Only a few weeks ago throughout llte whole world I here were exercises in honor of the 100th anniversary of the birth of Longfellow. America’s great fsf anil best loved poet. I! so happens that during »bis same year there falls the 100th anniversary of the birth of another American poet whose rank, in the hearts of New Kngland people at least, is secon-l only to the place filled tiy Longfellow. John Oreenleaf Whit tier was born in Haverhill. December 17, 1807, Why are no plans being made for Whittier centennial cele bration'' We have seen no newspaper reference to any plans for such a cele bration, though it seems probable that some are bring made. It is wholly un likely that stu b an anniversary will be allowed to pass altogether uncelebrat ed, but it will be too bad if it gets no mot observance than comes front a. few magazine articles or the publica tion of a special edition of the poet's works. Whittier was not a scholar and trav eler as Longfellow was. A large part of his life was passed in seclusion, and his themes were drawn largely from the things that are familiar to us all here in New Kngland. He has been called the "Quaker Poet" and the “Hard of Freedom." but prominent above everything else in his verse, as in his life, is his innate and unstudied Americanism. He breathes the spirit of New Kngland life in all his work, and wrote nothing but what our com m >n people have hived and understood; nothing but what serves to strengthen religious faith and inspire the noblest emotions. He did lor the scenery and the legends of New Kngland much that Scott did for those of Scotland. All his life was spent close to nature and he learned her secrets well. Like Longfellow he began to write verse at an early age. As a young man he did newspaper work in Boston. Haverhill, Kill I'M Romms' day.

Belching of Stomach, Gas. or any of these forerunners of Indigestion appear, Old Dr. Cascaret wants to be right on the spot in your pocket. Dr. Cascaret guarantees to cure the most obstinate cases of Constipation and Indigestion, without discomfort or incon venience. His medicine does not gripe nor purge, but exercises naturally the muscles that line the walls of the Intestines and Bowels.

Want of Exercise weakens and relaxes the Bowel Muscles, just as it weakens Arm and Leg muscles. Old Dr. Cascaret goes directly after these Bowel-Muscles. He wakes them up just as a cold bath would wake up a lazy person. Then he works them (through the nerves) till they get so strong from that Exercise that they don't need any more help to do their duty.

Heavy dinners, late suppers, whiskey, wine or beer drinking, nervous excitement, sudden exposure to cold or heat and a dozen other everyday likelihoods tire the Bowel Muscles. In such cases a little Cascaret'in time is worth fifty dollars worth of Treatment later on, to say nothing of the suffering, discomfort, loss of Business Energy, and loss of Social Sunshine it saves.

Tired,NervousMother A nervous, irritable mother, often on the verge of hysterics, is unfit to care for children; it ruins a child’s disposition and reacts upon herself. She is a source of misery to every one who comes under her influence, and unhappy and miserable herself. She cannot help it, as her condition is due to shattered nerves caused by some feminine derangement, with back ache, headache, and all kinds of pain, and she is on the verge of nervous prostration. Proof is monu mental that nothing is better to regulate a woman’s health than Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Thousands and thousands of women testify to this fact. Mrs. Nellie Makliain, of 151 Morgan St., Buffalo, N.Y., writes: L “Dear Mrs. Tinkbam:—I was a wreck from nervous prostration. I suffered so B I did not care what became of me, and my family despaired of my recover)-, Physi I dans failed to help me. 1 was urged to try Lydia K. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com pound, and I want to tell you that it has entirely cured me. I think it is the finest medicine on earth, and 1 am recommending it to all my friends and acquaintances.” Mrs. Goo. A. James, a life-long resident of Frcdonia, N.Y., writes: Dear Mrs. "Pinkbam —1 was in a terribly run down condition and had nervous prostration caused by female trouble, in fact I had not been well since my children were born. This condition worked on my nerves, and 1 was irritable and miserable. I had tried many remedies without getting much help, but Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg etable Compound brought me back to health and strength. It has also carried me safely through the Change of Life. 1 cannot too strongly recommend your medi- cine.” i f r> Cm MRS. PINKHAM’S INVITATION TO WOMEN. Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to communicate promptly with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. From the symptoms given, the trouble may be located and the quickest and surest way of recover)' advised. She will hold your letter in strict confi dence as indicated by the fact that every private letter received by her during the last twenty years, and more, she now has in the Company's laboratory under lock and key, and no testimonial has ever been published without special written permission. Her advice is free and always helpful. LYDIA E. PINKHAM’S VEGETABLE COMPOUND, a woman’s remedy for woman’s ills, made from Native ltoots and Herbs, complies with all conditions of the new Pure Food and Drugs Law, and is so guaranteed.

Shaw, eliief of the Massa chusetts district police, who was buried Sunday from his late home in Hynn. The two gentlemen were for years warm friends, and in speaking of the late chief yesterday Commissioner Carr paid to his memory the following graceful tribute: "In the death of Capt. Shaw the in surance commissioner of Maine has lost a very personal friend and the Maine insurance department a valuable as-, sistaut. He was ever ready to give bis 1 inn as far as possible and valuable advice in regard to investigation of tires, for which his long police life and duties so amply fitted him. Maine owes largely to the advice and action of the late Capt. Shaw and the Massa chusetts lire marshal department the efficiency or success it lias achieved if any during the past ten years. Commissioner Carr on account of ill ness. was unable to attend the funeral, which lie very much regretted. The clerks at tile State library arc now busy with the work of arranging the index to the legislative records and getting the copy ready for the printer, in accordance with an order passed at the late session which provided that the records should be prepared and bound in book form. The arrangement will prove of groat value as it will very much facilitate the finding of any por tion of the contents in the record which may be desired. A limited number j of th" records wilt be printed but not for general distribution. There will be a copy for each member of the Legis lature urn! also for each public library. Kt. Ili'V. Louis A.

Tlio number of students seeking an education in the -ocondary schools of our country is* in creasing a! a rapid rate. Twenty-live V '.'trs ago i he students in secondary tdui.ituni were classical in their ten dencies, studying to enter the profes sions. li was not a general opinion that tlic it\ 'tage man required a sec ondary school education. 1 have only! to point to i he schools offering a busi ness and technical education to show that a new class of students is present in our schools today; they an not classical in their tendencies but arc eager for knowledge ill business and technical lines. This does not mean that classical education is a failure or falling into disfavor. The professional classes must always be recruited from the classical school. He that would bo truly educated, that would make the most of the best in him. can only find enduring satisfaction in the classical held. It means that a te w class of students never before in the schools are sicking an cdicatiou along special lines of wink. I believe that til' public schools should respond to this demand. I l*o lievt that the boy who wishes to be come a business man or a mechanic should have as good an opportunity in the public schools as the boy who wishes to become a lawyer.

Sarsaparilla foundation courses in our public schools should be Mathematical and English as the two broad essentials to Which the tenehnical student can add i.is Science and the college student his '■reck and Latin. The High schools should provide two equally balanced departments of work, one adapted to the classical student and the Miter to the so-called English student. Every school lias its backward students and those who fail to continue their work through the tir.-t year, but I think if the w* rk of the High school was brbader along the lines that 1 have mentioned that the percentage of failures would be lessened and at tendance of the school considerably in creased. THE ELECTIVE SYSTEM. I am lirinly convinced that the elec tive system now in use is fundamental ly wrong. High sclio >1 students are too veung and know too little of tlicir needs to be permitted free choice in the selection of subjects. Onlv a very few of tip- parents inquire diligently into the courses of study and decide which is the hist for their child'cn. V‘T’ few colleges permit free choice of elcc'ives during the Freshman year, it hardly seems reasonable that stu (huts live yeirs 1 cfore are capable of making a wise choice. I'nder our pr,-seni. system a student may take a subject for one-half year, drop it for ar.y reason and try another for the next half year and so on indefinitely. The student graduates with a smatter ing of a do-sen subjects and without knowledge of any. 1 would recom mend that prescribed courses be sub stituted for the present system. If special eases require a deviation from this they should be left to the discre tion of the principal. ENGLISH. The increased demands of the col leges for the study of Literature in the last six yi'ill's li.is greatly encroached on the time formerly given in our High sehools to the .study of English Gram mar and Composition. At Hie present time two years must be given to the consideration of College English alone leaving in our three years' course hut one year to the consideration of funda mental English. This is too short a time for gaining tin accurate knowl edge of the principles of the language. This fact has been recognized by near ly all our standard High schools and had resulted in a general extension of the English courses. One of the latest to recognize this is the Jordan High sehool ot Eewiston which in a reorgani zation of its English and Mathematical Departments last week increased its English Course from three to four years. I would recommend four full years of English giving the extra time to the study of English Grammar, C omposit ion. Business Correspondence ai d other practical English subjects. MATHEMATICS. Mathematics is taught in our sehool for three purposes. First: To prepare students for college. Second: To en able students to master the mathemati cal i robletns of Science. The re sponsibility of this work should rest on the mathematical department and not tn the Science Department. That de partment has enough work in present i: g Its own suhji ets without the bur den of Mathematical instruction. Third: To enable students to solve the ordinary mathematical problems of business. I am of the opinion that our Miitheniiuii al Course at the present time does not supply either of the three demands. >ur courses are neither ade quate. not extended enough nor ar ranged at the proper time in the cur riculum. I recommend the following as an adequate and necessary Course: Alge bra two years, with fundamental work in Arithmetic. Plane Geometry one year. A lteview of Algebra and Plane Geometry in Senior year for college students. Solid Geometry one-half year. Trigonometry one-half year for allege students who are to attend n li clinical school.

If this change is made Physical Geography and Astronomy would necessarily come in the second year instead of tile third. This plan is now followed by the best Maine fitting schools and 1 would recommend its adoption. This change is earnestly desired by the instructor in Science. 1 would also recommend that the in structor be given a definite sum each year to expend on laboratory equip ment in Physics and Chemistry instead of small appropriations from time to time. He will then be better able to lay out bis work and adapt it to bis laboratory equipment. COMMERCIAI, DEI*AItTMEXT. Tlie reasons stated in the opening of this report are ample enough for my recommendation for the establishment of a Commercial Department. If suitable accommodations can be obtained 1 would recommend that a complete Commercial Course be established for two or three years work, parallel with the English and Mathematical Courses. It should he so arranged that a student desiring to graduate from the school can pursue the Commercial Course at the same time with other courses. The course should consist of Theoretical and Practical Bookkeeping, t'omnierieul I .aw. Writing, Stenography. Typo Wl itilllT. *ntn :ilnrr*i:i 1 i»l»v 1*'mr. Ii.'-li. Arithmetic*. Spelling and Business Correspondence, with such other .sub jects as the* needs of the school de mand. TEACHERS AND BOOKS. If those suggestions as to courses arc adopted one new teacher would be required in the school in the English Department. Tin* Commercial De partment would also require a teacher specially trained in those branches. As the school increases in size more teachers will be required, but the at tendance could reach three hundred without any great increase in the teaching force. Two hundred dollars would probably supply (lie need in additional hooks Pceessaiy to cany on the now courses, not including the equipment of the Comm* reial Department. Tic- amount in tins Department would lie directly reportionate to tile students in the I’ommc reial Course. This course is adapted to the present point system of credits anil could he adopted without interfering with tin present arrangement of the school work in the least. Respect fully submitted.

The chief bookkeeper in ;i large business house in one of our great Western cities speaks of the harm coffee bid for hint: ■'.My wife and I drank our first cup ot Poatuin Coffee a little over two years ago, and we have used it ever since, to the entire exclusion of tea and the old kind of coffee. It happened in this way: “About three and a half years ago I bad an attack of pneumonia, which left a memento in the shape of dyspepsia, or rather, to speak more correctly, neuralgia of the stomach. My ‘cup of cheer* bad always been coffee or tea, but I became convinced, after a time, that they aggravated my stomach trouble. I happened to men tion the matter to my grocer one day and he suggested that I give Postum Food Coffee a trial. “Next day it came, but the cook made the mistake of not boiling it sufficiently, and we did not like it much. This was, however, soon rem edied. and now we like it so much that we will never change back. Postum. being a food beverage instead of a drug, lias been the means of cur ing my stomach trouble, 1 verily be lieve, for I am a well man today and have used no other remedy. 'My work as chief bookkeeper in our Co.’s branch house here is of a very confining nature. During my coffee drinking days I was subject :o nervousness and ‘the blues’ in addition to my sick spells. These have left me since I began using Postum Food Coffee, and 1 can conscientiously re commend it to those whose work con fines them to long hours of severe mental exertion.'’ “There’s a Reason.” Name given by Postum Co..

SMITH GUILTY. Augusta Man ts Indicted For Assault un Wife. Frank Cardinal, Togus, Con victed on Nnisance Charge. Superior Court Hard at Work On the Criminal Docket. O. G. IIAI.L. Judge. CHAS. W. JONES, Clerk. FREDERICK W. PLAISTED, Sheriff. FRED E. BEANE. County Attorney. FRED W. LEE, Stenographer. TUESDAY APRIL S Ira W. Smith of Augusta was found guilty on an indictment charging him with assault on his wife; and Frank Cardinal of Togus was found guilty or maintaining a liquor nuisance in the superior court Tuesday. Both remand ed to Jail for sentence. The Cardinal case was rather inter esting in that one of the witnesses was a Togus veteran wh# had been piled with liquor until lie was nearly help less and was thrown out of doors to freeze. He was rescued by officers from the Home and told his story to them. Ho was then summoned into court to repeat it (before a jury. The Hopkins case w ill come up early Wednesday morning. The second ease to come to trial in the superior court at the April term now in session, war, that of Ira W. Smith of Augusta, charged with as sault and battery on his wife. Prank L. Dutton of Augusta was counsel for the defence Mrs. Annie Smith and Dr. Lincoln were called for the State by County Attorney Beane, after a brief address to the jury. Mrs. Smith took the stand nrst. She testified that she was now living at Torus, though she lived with Mr. Smith at Pcttengill's Coiner, last February. Mrs. Smith's story was rather in teresting. She said that her husband went to a place which she did not think was exactly tit for a married man to visit. When she remonstrated with him, she said that he took her by tile throat, bumped her head against the wall and otherwise maltreated her. She was later taken to the City hospi tal as a result of her injuries. In response to questions it developed that Mrs. Smith was unconscious for sonn* time and that she still suffers from the effect of the blows. The children were present at the time of the assault. In cross-examination Attorney Hutton brought out the fart that the witness and respondent had lived happily during the first part of tin tr uiarri-d life and that during the latter Part sIk- had been in the City hospital three times. When pressed for tin ea Ur. the witness declined to answer. Attorney Hutton asked where the wit ness hits been staying at Torus. She answered that she was staying at Marshall Smith's at tin- S’.-ow plow. This line of argument was objected strenuously fiv County Attorney Iteane hut it was admitted. Mr. Dutton then asked if she was there when a laid was made l»y Augusta officers. She answered in tin- affirmative. Asked wht tiler or not she w as one of those at rested at that time. The question was again objected to and excluded. Further questions developed the fact that the husband had objected to Un conduct of the wife and vice versa. The witness denied using "any household implement to attack" her husband. There were some further questions asked as to whether tile witness had ever had spells of going into hysterics, laying down on the floor and threshing round. It was asked whether letters from the mother and sister did not provoke some such outburst. It developed that the mother was coming over from Ireland and give Smith “a talking to.” The witness denied having any spells of any kind until she was assaulted. Dr. Lincoln testified that when he ar moil al tne nouse binitli s sister was there. Mrs. Smith was on the vouch, there were certain scratches ami bruis s with particulars.

Flagg of East port was among the people from otlier places who were in the city Tuesday on matters of busi ness, and was a guest at the Coriy House. The Augusta Athletic and Social Club will hold a special meeting this even ing at the club rooms to take action on future exhibitions and matters relating to the new club house. On account of the death of the late Mr. Tuck the musical at the State street Free Baptist church to have been given Thursday evening has been post poned until further notice. Friends of Dan Cony, who is at the City hospital recovering from an opera tion for appendicitis, will be glad to know that he is doing nicely and that an early recovery is looked for. Following the business of the meet liiS v^cxiciiitue ij'juge, iv. ui r.t this evening there will be a rehearsal of the First degree team, at which all the members are requested to be present. George Wescott Beyer and Edward R. Payson of Portland and Josiah S. ilaxcy of Gardiner were in the city yesterday to attend a meeting of the directors of the Kennebec Light Heat Co. The members of Abenaki Council, K. C.. arc making arrangements for a social dance to be given at Wood men's hall on Thursday evening, April IS, which they propose to make one of the good times of the season. Augusta theater-goers will regret to learn that the musical comedy, “A Message from Mars." which was book ed for the Opera house for Tuesday evening. April 23, lias been cancelled, the company having closed for the season. Joseph Lcssard, who lives at the up per end of .Siate street, was before the municipal court yesterday morning on a charge of assault and battery, v.hicn was preferred by his wife and for which he was arrested Monday night. According to Mrs. Lessard's story the trouble occurred after she had retired for the night, and that he had grabbed her by the hair of her head and struck In r many times. Lessard's story was differtnt, and in the course of it the court detected him in telling things which were not so. The ease was I'loseu ny -Liessard s being lined $10 and costs, amounting in all to $15, or M days in jail, and in addition thereto he was placed under $200 to keep the peace. The change in the iee situation this week thus far lias been slight, and with hut little indication of any movement until warm weather or a heavy rain storm comes along. The ic-e from be low the Kennebec dam and along the water front remains at Hallowed, near the power station, where it lias been for several days, and the next clear space is from Gardiner down river as far as the Hat horn ice houses, about three miles above Xceboro. A report from Bath Monday stated that the ice on the sands of Merrymeeting bay broke up Sunday and floated down river, but that at Richmond is still re ported to be solid enough for teams to cross. At present it does not look as if the river would be free of ice before t'ue last of the week, or perhaps later. The weather of the past two days would seem to attest the truth of the old saying about winter lingering in the lap of spring, for there is certain ly nothing at present to indicate the presence of the latter season, it being completely sidetracked by snow. The snowstorm of Monday night was ns imitation affair and the amount that came down during the night measured about five inches. There was a let up ye-terday morning, but in the after noon the storm broke loose again and developed into something of a blizzard. Iiad tile weather been colder the snow would have piled up in a way that would have made trouble all along the line. Tho members of the Cony High ha®6' ball team are putting in some sol® work preparatory to the coming season, anti as soon as the ground is drf enough to get out onto the diamond the progress made will be much better. Manager Bickmore has already malle* number of dates for the team and tna schedule Is expected to be complete* within u short time, probably tlu* week. The season will open »eb niotitli and among the teams which tw boys will go up against arc tho Sou Portland High, Brunswick High, co burn Classical and Waterville and the composition of the homo tea would seem to Indicate that the go which the boys will put up for Co tills season should be as good or a h better than the teams which n represented the school In the past.

Gardiner LOCAL MATTERS, Henry A. Wing of Lewiston was in the city yesterday on matters of busi ness. Alfred Hanson and family, who have lived on State street for several years, have moved to 120 Bridge street. The Chorus Choir of the Congrega tional church will meet at 7.30 o'clock this evening with Melville Smith, Win throp street. Dr. G. R. Campbell, who had been on a trip to Massachusetts and Rhode Island, returned to his home in this city yesterday afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. E. M. Mower and son, who had been visiting friends in Bos ton and vicinity for a few days past, arrived home on train 25 Monday evening. iii'j siuuems or me o.iaw Business college will give one of their enjoyable dancing assemblies at Odd Fellows hall this evening with Ballard's orchestra for music and a good time is anticipated. Merton Taylor, a son of Supt. L. F. Taylor of the A. W. G. Railway, has accepted a position in the stock de partment of the L., B. B. Street Railway, and left for Lewiston Monday morning to take up the duties of the position. The only cases of contagious disease existing in the city at the present time are two cases of diphtheria in the Lecliar and Lajoie families at No. 5S Northern avenue. The house is under Quarantine and both cases arc re ported to be doing well. Manager Cuddy of the Augusta Opera house announces for one of the early May attractions for his show house, “The Isle of Bong Bong,” which is one Of B. C. Whitney’s musical comedies and is said to be a good one. The date is Wednesday evening. May 8. Money will be plenty in Augusta this summer and everyone will need a new pocketbook. The time to get one is now, during Bowditch Webster's markdown sale. See their window display of wallets, billbooks, letter and pocketbooks and cigar cases. Every one is plainly marked with both the regular and the special sale price and the difference shows a very substan tial and satisfactory saving. The hoisting engine which was hauled over to the east shore of the river last week just south of the Au gusta Lumber Co's, log piles, has been set in position for work and steam was started for the first time yesterday morning. The engine is to be used in taking down the log piles, there being about 12.000 sticks in all, and the work of taking them down and putting them into the water will be commenced Monday. The ladies of Imperial Lodge. Degree of Honor, will give a dancing party at Woodmen’s hall on Thursday evening,x Mav 2. with music by Lee Orchestra of Gardiner. It had been intended to give the annual May ball, but as the hall could not be secured for the even ing of May 1 it was decided to have the dance on the following night. Arrange ments are being made for a good time and the ladies of the lodge propose to carry out the intention. The mayor and beard of aldermen held a special meeting last evening to consider a petition for the commit ment of Charles E. Knowles to the Insane hospital. James W. Knowles, a brother. Dr. Wellington Johnson, Dr. Lewis L. Mann and City Marshal Fletcher testified that the man was undoubtedly insane. Marshal Fletcher stated that Knowles was getting mo rose and violent. It was unanimously voted to commit him. Mayor Plaisted and Aldermen Choate, Noyes, Cyr and Locke were present. Deputy Marshal llcnry O. Partnen 4 iL.r.nii' A «11»I 111 111« Ss (’VT and Officer F. N. Bisson visited the Marshall Smith place at Torus late Tuesday afternoon and found four full pints of whiskey and a pint bottle about two-thirds full. The officers made a thorough search of the place, including the house and barn. In the latter building they pitched over sev eral tons of hay before their search was rewarded. Smith accompanied the officers to the city, but secured bail and returned to his home later in the evening. A junto or snow bird came to an un timely end yesterday morning by Hy ing against the big plate window at VV. U. Partridge's drug store, from which it received injuries that caused its death Several of these birds have been seen about Water street within the past few days, and the one in ques tion probably saw something in the store which he wanted and did not reckon on there being anything but air between him and the object of his quest. The boys in the store applied several restoratives but the bird failed to respond and soon died.

(Continued from Page Ten.) t---- ■■■■■a of Frank Cardinal of Augusta, indicted as a common seller and for maintaining a nuisance. He was tried in the munici pal court on a charge of search and seiz ure and was found guilty. He is at pres ent serving his sentence on that charge ar.d was brought from the jail to answer to the other two. He was tried on the nuisance indictment alone. County Attorney Deane in r. very brief opening of the case stated that he would put ori the three officers who raided the place, a veteran who had bought cider at the Cardinal home and another soldier who had bought whiskey there. He then called James 'N. Bisson, Henry O. Par monter. Dennis Donovan. Frederick Fick ett ai d John Kelley, Bisson taking the stand. Mr. Besson testified that lie was janitor at the City building and a police officer, that he knew Cardinal, who lives on the Spring road near the Snow Plow, and that the officers visited that place March 2»1. He testified that, to the best of his recollect ion, they found seven full pints of whiskey, one pint bottle of whiskey partly full and a pint of Turn. When they got there, he said. Cardinal was at Marshall Smith's house and he, with Par menter, went after him. Cardinal came back to his own home very willingly, opened the door and let them in. Franv L. Dutton, attorney for the de fence, in conducting the cross-examina tion questioned the witness very close ly as to whether the officers were in uni form and as to whether they should Car dinal tiie warrant or told him wliait they wanted of him. He replied that the offi cers were in uniform but wore their over coats. that lie did not have the warrant but thought that Mr. Donovan showed it to the respondent. He didn't toll him what was wanted, but avoided answering the questions. No women were seen about the place. Henry O. Parmenter, deputy marshal, was the r.ext witness. He stated that lie went with the officers, that he thought that eight full pints of whiskey, one pint of rum and a pint bottle partly full of [whiskey were found. He saw a barrel of empty bottles in the shed, would say that there wras ubout a barrel full, 200 or 300. In answer to questions put by the county attorney he staled that the Car dinal house is about two minutes’ walk trom the snow mow. we saw mat Marshal Donovan joined him at Jones' and that just as Cardinal was unlocking the door he told the officers that he had some liquor there. They found the li quor immediately. He had never been there before cr since. Deputy Sheriff Dennis Donovan was the next witness. He suul that the warrant was issued by Judge Andrews, that they searched several places at Togus that clay and on account of information re ceived he sent back into the city for the warrant against Cardinal. Cardinal was in the city and came out on tlie 7 o’clock car and stopped at Smith's place for sup per. He was sent for. for it was not con sidered hardly fair to break down his door. The bottles of liquor were found on the door near the cupboard, some witii the wrappers still on, some without. Car dinal said that the bottles in the shed were left by the people who formerly occupied the house and used to sell rum. Ho showed them three hides, said to have been in use when the enforcement depu ties were operating in the district. On cross-examination it developed that Cardinal was found guilty on the search and seizure in (the lower court on a state ment of the case made by the officers only. The respondent had no counsel and no witnesses. Frederick Fickott, who occupies the other half of the same house occupied by Cardinal, said that he had known Car dinal since last August or September. “Have you been in the house since Jan. 1?" asked the counity attorney. A—“No, sir.” Q—“Haven’t you been in there and bought cider—'' Mr. Dutton—“I object; one answer is sufficient.’’ Mr. Beane—“Well, let me ask him this one more: Didn't you tell me out there In my room that you had been irtto Car dinal's place and purchased cider?” A—“No, sir.” Mr. Beane—“That is all, sir.” Mr. Dutton then took the witness in hand and retraced the same ground, tlio witness stating further, however, that he had never been into the Cardinal part of the house except once, and that was ler.n 1,„ V,o,1 C-, trouble n-t» V, 1,im The next witness proved to be another surprise. He was a battle-scarred veter an of 73 years, bent with age, but bright and thoroughly alive to the occasion. Ho has been at the National Home lor about IS years. In response to questions he said that he knew Cardinal, that he had been a car penter about the House, and at Togus for some time. He remembered very dis tinctly that the last time he went to Car dinal's place was at about 5 o’clock on the afternoon of March 32. Two or three soldiers were there. He called for a drink and got it. Ke told Cardinal that he had come to pay 7.'. cents that ho owed for liquor and tendered a $1 bill in pay ment. He received 25 cents back in change. He spent this for liquor, too. Kelley said that he stayed there about an hour and a half and then Cardinal told them to get out, that he wanted to FIND OUT The Kind of Food That Will Keep You Well. The true way is to find out what is best to eat and drink, and then culti vate a taste for those things instead of poisoning ourselves with improper, indigestible food. etc. A conservative Mass, woman writes: “I have used Grape-Nuts 5 years for the young and for the aged; in sick ness and in health; at first following directions carefully, later in a variety of ways as my taste and judgment suggested. "But its most special, persona! benefit has been a substitute for meat, and served dry with cream when rheumatic troubles made it important for me to give up the "coffee habit.” “Served in this way with the addi tion of a cup of hot water and a little fruit it has been used at my morning meal for six months, during which time my health has much improved, nerves have grown steadier, and a gradual decrease in my excessive weight adds greatly to my comfort.” Name given by Postum Cereal Co..

When be got to i the dcor. the witness alleged that Car dinal pushed him out Into a puddle of 'water and lee near the dloor. He was helpless and lay there for about 20 niin ules. Then Mr. Fickett came to his res cue. The witness owned that he “had a few in.’" It developed in cross-examination that Kelley was carried back to the Home in the ambulance and thawed out. In the ■morning the governor tried to get him to teli his experience, but he declined. Later he was interviewed by the adju tant and after some questioning told the whole story. He was summoned into court by County Attorney Beane. De scribing the state in which he was found, the witness said that some of the men at the Home thought that lie was dead. This closed the case of the State. Frank Cardinal, the respondent, was the only witness for the defence. He said that he was a veteran, 73 years of age and a car penter by trade. He claimed that tho liquors seized were intended for his own personal use, but denied the ownership of the empty bottles ir. the shed. He said 5 ithat Kelley came to his house on the night of March 22 in an intoxicated con dition and he put him out. He didn't know how long Kelley laid there. He didn't go out to see The jury was out but a short time and returned a verdict of guilty. Cardinal was remanded for sentence, after plead ing nolo contendere on the common s-li er charge, which was then placed on file. The cases against John Hopkins and Fred I-fopkins, both of Augusta, will be the first on the docket Wednesday morn ing. AMUSEMENTS. Yale's “Devil's Auction,” Thursday. Manager Chas. H.

Portland, Mo., April 9.—Today is the t-d anniversary of the surrender of the Confederate Army to General Grant, the Union commander. It is being celebrated in all the G. A. R. Posts throughout the country. Gen eral Chamberlain of this city, who had command of two corps at the surren der today spoke briefly and interest ingly to tile Express upon the surren der of General Lee to General Grant at Appomattox Court House. He said: "The Fifth Corps with General Sher idan after a hard day's march of about 30 miles and a night's march of 12 miles were close upon them and arrived at Appomattox Station about S o'clock in tile morning. After a hard light of about an hour we arrived at Appomat tox Court House. It had been a caval ry light and Lee was pushing every thing before him when our infantry rushed up in the nick of time to line in the battle. "I had charge of two brigades on the right of the Union line. We swung in at Appomattox Court House and Gor don’s and Longstreet's troops then brought in a flag of truce to arrange for a cessation of hostilities until Gordon and Longstrcet could plan with Grant. “Gee and Grant soon came up to the court house by different roads from the I right, passing through my lines. In an hour’s time the surrender was an nounced, which was about j I. M. ins wild demonstration that followed may perhaps be imagined. The two armies that had fought for four years in the bloodiest battles of the war met for the last time, declaring the Nation's peace and the people's unity. "When the Confederate Army went out to lay down arms in colors in the presence of an appointed portion of the Union Army, it was a solemn and ef fecting service to all.” HUNTING HORSE THIEVES.

Rupture Between Government *nd Parliament Becoming More Strained. St. Petersburg, April 9.—Tho relations between the Lower House of Parliament and the administration are daily becom ing more acute on account of Premier Stolypin’s repeated rebukes of the Lower House for overstepping Its competence. He has already refused the request of the famine committee to be allowed to exam ine the statistics of the Zemstvos and lhas denied the right of the budget commis sion to invite the assistance of non-bu rcaucratie experts. Today the premier addressed three new letters to President Golovin, calling tho Lower House to account for further al leged illegal acts and demanding that steps be taken to prevent their repetition. The Constitutional Democrats hitherto have been in a yielding mood but their organ, the Rcch, today says that the limit of surrender has been reached, and says that other legislatures in Europe and America arc entitled to summon ex perts to hold legislative hearings before committees and that the Senate, the highest judicial body, recognized this right of Parliament last year and de mands to know by what authority the premier is interfering in the internal af fairs of the country.

Washington, April 9.—R. E'ehazar reta, the Nicaraguan consul at New Orleans has advised the Nicaraguan legation in this city that according to a communication from General Juan J. Estrada, general commanding the Nicaraguan expedition engaged in capturing Honduran ports, explicit in structions were given to the general to follow strictly the rules and regula tions in accordance with international war when nations are at war, guaran teeing the life and property of every neutral citizen at the different places where his forces would be. General Estrada states that he was ready to guarantee the life and prop erty of every foreigner and that he had made such guarantee good. He says this had been proven by the fact that no complaints have been made to the contrary. CONDENSED DISPATCHES. Mrs. T. II.

Ask Their Physician What Food to Use. When it is necessary to wean the baby, the physician should always be consulted as to what food to use. The physician most certainly will advise against the use of condensed milk, or cow’s milk alone, although he will quite likely advise the use of what is called modified milk. The chances are that he will pre scribe Justfood, which, when prepared according to the simple directions ac companying the package, modifies cow’s milk in exactly the way that would be recommended by leading physicians. Justfood is so delicate and so easily absorbed that the baby always keeps it down, making it unnecessary to use lime w'ater or piedicine. It is, too, a most economical food, costing, prepared for use, less than lc. a meal for little babies. Sold by drug gists 50c. $1.00, $1.50. Ask your phy sician his opinion of Justfood, for quite likely he has used it for years. We should be glad to send a liberal sample of the food to any mother or physician.
