ACTION BEGUN AGAINST IE “TOBACCO TRUST: ;I Uncle Sam Charges Conspiracy to Monopolize World's Trade-Criminal Prosecution of Some of Defendants Is Thought Probable. New York, July 10.—The government today tiled in the I’nitetl Slates eireuit court in this cily a petition against the American Tobacco Co., tlie Imperi al Tobacco Co., the Hritish-Ameriean Tobacco Co., tlie American Snuff Co., the American Cigar Co., the United Ci gar Stores Co., the American Stogie Co., tlie MacAndrews Forbes Co., the Coneley Foil Co. and "it; other corpora tions and 59 individuals connected with the named companies. These corpora tions and individuals constitute what is generally known as the “Tobacco Trust” ami tlie petition directed against them sets forth the purpose of the gov ernment to dissolve this trust by break ing up tlie agreements under which the consolidated concerns are work ing. In showing the growth of the "Trust" since its organization in iv.no. the conclusion is reached that at an early day, unless prevented, it would liaeeo industry. That till of the defendants are en gaged in interstate and foreign trade and commerce in leaf tobacco and products manufactured therefrom, is alleged by the petition. It is stated that the act of July 59, 1S90, to protect trade and commerce, and subsequent acts have been violated and the gov ernment therefore seeks to prevent and restrain the unlawful existing agree ments.eombinat ions and conspiracies ami attempts to ninnopuolize, and break up perfected monopolies. The government asks that the existing com binations and monopolies lie enjoined and that each of the defendant compa nies be restrained from holding or controlling stock in any other. It is asked further that the Imperial Tobac co Co. be enjoined from doing business within the jurisdiction of the United States until it shall erase to observe tlie terms ol its agreement with Ana r ican companies; that certain of the de fendants bo declared combinations in restraint of trade and be enjoined from engaging in interstate and foreign trade and commerce, or that a receiv er lie appointed to take charge of their affairs and administer them so as to bring about conditions in harmony with the law. The organization of the Tobacco Trust, according to the petition, dates from the lormation of the American Tobacco Co, in lS'ja to acquire live competing cigarette manufacturers with joint assets much less than $.5. 000.000 and an annual consumption of leaf under 15.000.00 pounds. Oil.* petition shows subsequent his tory and growth of that company iimil its total assets now exceed $975,000,000 and likewise the origin and manipula tion of scores of created, acquired and controlled corporations utilized as agencies to accomplish the general de sign; the progressive alisioption and i iimination of competition and de struction ef opposition; aril the entry by defendants into various dopaht ipcnts of manufacture ami trade, do med ic and foreign. into tobacco prod ucts with intent to monopolize. The allegation is made that the members of the combination have divided up the tobacco business of the world, assign ing to some special territory lor un molested exploitation. It is declared that the consolidated corporations annually purchase 47.r>. (HHi.non pounds of domestic leaf, and of the total produced in the I'nited states manufacture, sell and distribute more than 28u,ikmi,ihhi pounds (Ml per cent.), of the smoking and plug tobacco; 9." per lent, of the snuff, so per cent, of the cigarettes. To per cent, of the small eigars, per rent, of the licor ice products, so per cent, of the tinfoil products and PI to ir> per cent, of the cigar ar:l stogies; that they are rap idly acquiring control of the ordinary agencies—jobbers, wholesalers and re tailers--through which tobacco pro ducts are distributed. 'if the total annual production of domestic tobacco, estimated at SOO.oon, eu'l pounds, 7!i per cent, is purchased by the American Tobacco Company and its associates and its allies at prices which the government alleges to he un lawfully Influenced by the combination. It is said that this is in defiance of the usual laws of trade, where open competition l>v many separate and in dependent concerns control the prices. The petition continues: "The American Tobaeco Company of Now Jersey, organized in 1S90 witli 1 iO.iKHi capital took over the liusi m ss of Allan l>. (tinter, Richmond: Utike Sons Co., of North Carolina; Kinney Tobacco Company, W. S. Kim ball Co., and Goodwin Co., of New York and thereby acquired control of tiic manufacture, trade ami commerce in cigarettes, it was immediately suc cessful and shortly after its formation, tlio interested parties began to extend its operations and with others united from lime to time, have steadily sought through it to acquire domain over and to monopolize the different branches of tiic tobacco industry. This company h is the principal agency through which the designs of tlie combination Inve hfeii accomplished but many dif ferent corporations have been organiz ed, the control of many others been secured and in various ways these have been manipulated and utilized. "The operations of the monopoly, according to the petition, have been “long this general plan: To acquire through one of tiic confederated com panies tile business of successful op ponents, tiiking from owners and man agers agreements not thereafter to en gage in the tobacco business; to drive out other opponents, by destructive competition; to deter any who might wish to engage in the trade and finally The Unwritten Law to Again Be Invoked in Murder Trial. Ha Plata, M«l., July. 10.—The so called “1’mvrill**n law” will be the plea of the defence in the ease of Mrs. Mario Howie anti her son Henry Howie of Pisgah. who are accused of shoot ing and killing Hubert Posey on tin* ni^ht «»f Jan. IS for his refusal 10 marry Prise ilia Howio, the daughter and sister of the P. M. Wednesday. Examination showed that the bowels were perforated and peri tonitis set in. The news of her death has been wired to her parents in Row ell ami' if nothing is hoard from them i she will he buried at Woodstock. a to gain control of the agencies through which tobacco products were distribut ed. It is said these tilings have been accomplished by means of the increas ing power and resources of the com bination and by aequtfing controlling interests in the stock of corporations tin real ter operating without competi tion. .Many kinds of unfair trade meth ods have been resorted to. It is .said, a favorite one being to cause a corpora tion secretly controlled to advertise it sei; as wholly independent and free from association with trusts and com binations, to offer its gootj^ below cost, to imitate competing brands, and in these ways to tise the same for the destruction of real independents.” After reciting the bitter trade war between American and English con cern. the petition shows how the com binations in these countries, wearying of competition, in 1902 entered into written agreements each not to inter fere with the other along certain well defined lines and together forming the Imperial Tobacco Company, to carry on tlie trade and commerce in other countries without competition. The government declares that this division of tlle world has ever since been strictly observed and the three com panies with their allies and associates have all been operated in concert and harmony. An interesting chapter of the petition is devoted to methods of distributing tobacco products. The American To bacco Company in 1901, the petition states, secretly acquired control of the I'nited Cigar Stores Co., (for a long tune thereafter denied) and through It retail stores are established in the large cities which, by reason of the powerful support and influence of the combination, quickly secured a domi nating position in the trade and de stroyed competitors. Criminal Prose cution Probable. Xt w York, July in.—James C. Mr Heynolds, tlie special assistant attor ney general appointed to prosecute the so-called tobacco trust, declared today *1 tier filing tlie complaint in the case, that the question whether he would urge tlie court to appoint a receiver for tlie various companies would de pend entirely on the evidence secured from the witnesses summoned upon Ills complaint. He said also that criminal prosecution of some of the defendants he named in tlie complaint la highly Probable and that the Sherman law under which this action is brought makes a conspiracy hi restraint of trade a criminal offense. A significant features of the complaint is the waiv er of the right of demanding answers under oalli from corporations and In dividuals named as defendants In his complaint, as the making of such an >v* r under oatn might confer immun ity lrom prosecution.

The petition is signed by Attorney General Charles J. I Bonaparte, Milton D. Purdy and Ed w in P.Grosvenor and James Rey nolds assistant attorneys general. Asked whether he intended to urge the court to appoint receivers for the corporation. Mr. McReynolds said lie could only decide after the hearing of evidence given by the witnesses. "What precedent have you for ask ing for the appointment of receivers?” he n as asked. "The Sherman law under which this action is brought,” replied Mr. Mo Reynolds, "provides that the court may restrain and prevent the opera tions of a combination. If the court finds that the appointment of receivers is necessary to prevent operations of this combination, it may do so. We ask the court to enjoin these companies. If it did so it might prevent men from buying tobacco but it receivers are ap pointed tin business would be contin ued, the public would not be embar rassed by inability to purchase tobacco and the receiver might s--ll of the var ious factories to independent concerns thus effectively dissolving the combi nation.” Mr. McReynolds said he had no idea how soon the taking of evidence would begin. James I>. Duke, president of the American Tobacco Go., said today: For lie- past year the fedeial depart ment of commerce have been investi gating our affairs and in that investi gation has been tarnished every pos sible facility by us. "Our lawyers have constantly ad vis"d and still advise that our exis tence, business methods and success do not involve any violation of any law and we ourselves know that they iiri not an injury for it minute to any class of the public —consumers of to baeto, producers of tobacco or inves tors. Our success is due to our having served the public better than anybody t lse.” UNDER CONSIDERATION. Criminal Prosecution Question Not Yet Freely Decided.

The Tale of Perfect Time In a Watch From Mainspring to Hair spring—between them lies the secret. The Mainspring is the power which it transmits to the active parts of the watch.

Yet it is enough to Interfere In its per formance, so wonderful is the adjustment. The friction from accumulating dirt; lack of oil, etc., destroy these perfect fit tings.

Portland Argus: For fiase hit robbing Dannie Mahoney of Augusta Is cer tainly the limit. He should be looked up for laceny. Dewlston has produced some groat ball players but It never has a young ster who gave promise of better things than young Mahoney now with the Augusta club, says the Portland Press. Tha memory of that 14 inning game 1 GKORCK KOI IK ri.lril R.iscrmm of the Ciii.-ago While Pox last Saturday anil the great work which the Augusta team is doing this tvM k makes the local fans very anxious to see another game here. The next game will foe here next Monday at the Driving park with Pine Tree as opponents and will foe called at 5.15. There will i:** six games here next week and enthusiasm will sizzle. The wonderful performance of f'lark, the new Augusta pitcher, in pitching a no hit and no run game Tuesday is at tracting lots of attention. The Port land papers devoted much space to the game and in addition to tin- praise of Clark they gave special nention to the star Holding of the Augusta fojys. es pecially phoney and Wholly. Clark is a big fellow, weighing 2f,0. and lie had a spit hall which looked like pea to the Portland men. He was picked tip l.y Manager Wreath at Springlield and lias pitched on Haverhill. Portland Press: Manugi r Wreath of the Augusta club says that the story told foy Qutfileder T.eonard Cote that he h id not received a cent of tiis pay dur ing the time lie was a member of the Augusta club is untrue. He says his checks will show that the men were all paid on June 1 and June 15. Manager Wreath says that lie did not pay the men on July 1 as he wanted to foe sure they would foe in condition for the July 4 games. He did. however, give each played ?10 the day In fore the Fourth, some of which was not spent judiciously as the manner of game the men put tip on the Fourth demon strated. This ev» ning the Augusta manager will show his appreciation of the good work of tiis men in the last three games 1 y giving them a dinner at the Peaks Island house. The state ment that Cote has received offers from other teams in the league is un true. No club would attempt to do business with Cote so long as lie is un N.

The Burlington players claim that they have not been paid their salaries in full since the organization of the Mew Hampshire League in the middle of April, only meager sums being hand ed out to them from time to time. For the past week or in days tiny have realized scarcely anything, and Tuesday afternoon one of the players said he had eaten nothing that day but two buns, and that his room mate had eaten nothing at all, because of lack of money. Unless another team is organized or brought here this marks the end of the newly organized Vermont League.

A reach on the port tack of 8 miles, a spinnaker run down Kggemoggin reach ot 12 miles, another across Jerico bay of three miles and a second spin naker run to the finish of 2 miles, with the vaehts well bunched from the start to within a few miles of the finish, made a day full ot excitement and a run that will lie long remembered by those that had the good fortune to participate in it. There were just enough sloops and schooners to make a division into two classes a tel the Avenger won the run for the single stickers while the Taor mina captured the prize for the schoon ers and almost clinched her chances for the Luke Slots) cup for the entire cruise. It was a day in which the new boats had to hustle in order to get far enough ahead to save their time al lowance over the older creations, so that sail was carried from the start almost without regard for safety.

SWIFT DENIAL Follows Tale of Categori cal Demands from Japan. jNnbassador Aoki Denies That He Has Been Recalled. Peace Must Be Preserved, Says Admiral Baron Yamamoto. Washington, July 10.—From the state department ami from the Japanese embassy here came swift anil conclu sive denial today of the accuracy of tn*' statement cabled from The Hague to the London Daily Telegraph and re printed in this country to thy effect that Japan has made categorical de mands upon the United States govern ment for satisfaction in connection with the treatment of Japanese in San .Francisco and has served notice of her ;intention to deal with the Californians Jh'rstlf if the national government fails Jto do so. At the state department it is said that the American public is fully aware of the nature of all the ex changes that have taken place on this Biibji ct; that there lias been no cor respondence of recent date and t hat i there are no negotiations in progress I bet ween the two governments. This ^statement is fully confirmed at the Jap •anese embassy where, moreover, it is (positively stated that Ambassador Aoki is not going to Japan next fall as was reported in a Japanese paper. Prompt and emphatic was Ambas sador Aoki's denial of the story of his return to his own country. “f have not been summoned to To ko.," he said, "and I have no inten tion nf going. Again I want to say, as 1 have said time and time again, there is no situation; there are no ‘strained relations’ between the United States and Japan. As I said before, all this talk of such a condition of affairs is newspaper talk." Mr. Aoki mad" it clear that be put absolutely no faith in The Hague story and said that it was too ridicu lous to talk about. Mr. Aoki bad a word to say in re gard to Director Isliii of the commer cial bureau of tin* Japanese foreign of fice win n ipiestioniil about the otlieial's earning visit to the United States. The stnt--i.il nt that his mission was nc thrown in relations be wltich began N'-w York, July 10. —“I think the friendly relations of long standing be 'tween tin* I'i»itiil.l in- preserved and the "passing Irt'irm ilisappear in the waters of the Parilie ocean.

My business now is with the ■'"ord by my side. Political parties nave no interest for me.” The admiral said that much depended on the attitude taken liy the press on the present situation. “Too much care cannot 1m1 taken by the press,” continued Ad'l Yamamoto, "for a few careless words will do more harm than good. There are many sen sational papers, both here and in Jap an and 1 ask the editors to make a thorough study of the situation before writing their views.” The admiral may make an Informal call on Pres. Roosevelt at Ovstcr Hay as he lias received the official visit of the admiral commanding the Atlantic licet of the t'nitcd States. Admiral Yamamoto and his suite intend to visit the shipbuilding yards in Philadelphia on Saturday and after spending Sunday in this city, to leave for Huston on next Monday. Rear Admiral Evans after a visit to Admiral Yamamoto, said that he had discussed the rumors of war between the countries with the Japanese ad miral. "\Ve settled the whole question our selves,” said Admiral Evans, “and Hie first and last shots were fired by pho tographers.” The admiral and I are old friends. He was secretary of the navy in Japan when I was there some years ago and he has visited this country twice be fore. “He thinks as I do that there is nothing at all to this talk about war. Heading men of Japan and the two governments understand each other perfectly and the good sense of the governments will prevent any trouble.” EXHAUSTIVE REPORT Of Latest Complication At San Fran cisco Made to Government. f?an Francisco, July 10.—An exhaus tive report of all the facts in connec tion with the recent refusal of the po lice commissioners to grant employ ment office licenses to Japanese or other aliens has been mailed to At torney (Seneral Iionaparte by United States Attorney Devlin. There is every indication that the Japanese will ap peal to the courts to have it deter mined whether their treaty rights have been infringed upon. There is no ordinance on the books prohibiting the issuance of employ ment office licenses to aliens, but the police commissioners contend that such business comes within their po lice powers and that their action does m.t discriminate against Japanese nor infringe their treaty rights, they being treated the same as other aliens. PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS Discussed At Wednesday’s Session of Peace Conference. The Hague, Inly in.-The American proposition regal ding the inviolability of private property at sea was discussed to day at the meeting of the i.enevaii con vention committee of the peace confer ence. Various oilier propositions were presented but Joseph If. Choate d p-nded the right of the Americans to have their propositions voted upon before other propositions or amendments, taking the ground that the discussion of the Ameri can proposition was closed and that if it was not approved by a unanimous vote it would have great moral influence ill in ducing the powers to agree among them selves on tile tieatnient of private prop erty at sea ie the event of an outbreak of it naval war.

She had very larpcly regained her spirits before stir left hire, realiz ing that she had left Shiloh and its influences behind her. She expresses no desire to return to Shiloh, and her friends think that in a very short time she will recover her former health and will suffer no ill f leets from her life at the Sand ford in stitution. The money she had was donated to Shiloh, and the managers would not consent even to give her a dollar to Inty food while on her trip to Man chester.

After leaving Lisbon Falls with Mr. Peal yesterday she seemed to lose the fear that she would lie taken back to what liad become a prison to her. Many others would leave Hliiloh, but they have no money to pay their fares to their homes, and many of them live hundreds of miles away. In addition to this they have the fear that if they forsake tha place, Shiloh’s curse will follow them. TO WISCONSIN SOLDIERS. Hicks Memorial Monument Unveiled at Oshkosh, Wis. Osl.knsh. Wis..

Walter Burnham'.; Newark team lias been the surprise of tile Fasten* League this season. ‘‘Link” Lowe .is the official scout for the Detroits and lias started West on the war path after promising material. Catcher Heinie Peitz says he lias an offer from President Pulliam to um pire. Heinie says lie will accept after lie is through with playing. “Pop" ltising keeps on hammering the ball for Springfield, and bis per centage st-iod at .370 for 60 games, to .32S for Stankard and .320 lor Luby. Staff old is so short-legged that when lie follows a runner around the bases ho has to stand in the pitcher’s box and turn on his heel to keep up,” says the Detroit Journal. Oapt. Arthur Nichols of Watorbury lias purchased his release for $330. lie says lie is tired of tlie Connecticut League and will go to Nashville, witere lie can get more money. With two clever scouts roaming about among the minor leagues of the country, the Boston Americans will have several clever youngsters in line for fall and spring work. It wouldn't lie surprising to see 13d Killian playing first base one of these days, says the Detroit Journal. lie is a tine fielder and without the pitching strain would he a grand hitter. That he rather fancies the position is shown by the fact that lie often strays over to the bag in practice. 'barley Ganzol, the famous olil l.»s ton catcher, never misses a g'''ic In lioston where his brother John i. .k ed to play. llrnther John Is receiving a swell salary from thirty Herrin nn to play first and captain the Cine: nati team, while Charles is now a suc cessful business man of Boston. .vlitehell of the Cincinnatis said of the speed of Overall the last time lie faced the big fellow: “The ball came by so fast 'hat the breeze dried your clothes, parted your hair and gave you a shampoo. Some of these old-timers talk to me about Amos Itnsie, but I'll 1» t my salary thal lie bad nothine u oveuill. And then just think of Orvio getting through a gamo without giv ing a base on balls, or making any kind of a mistake. It was a wonderful game that he put up.” Jack Ryder vouches for the truth of tlie foregoing. “Players all around the circuit tell me that Nig Clarke is the best catcher in the world and I believe they are right,” says Adtlie Joss. “The little fellow is not only a perfect machine back there, catching any kind of fast or slow or curve or spit ball pitching, but he is a reincarnation of Buck Kwing in Ids manner of jollying the batters into hitting at the bad ones. N'o pitcher in either of the big leagues would have any trouble working with Nig. Indeed, a pitcher hasn’t very much to do except to stand up there and hand up what 77 establishments, or, to use a more accurate index of the industry's prosperity, 7,508,749 of the 23,155,163 producing spindles in the country, were in this section.

The squeeze In the money market came, as w;e- expected, with the withdrawal to day of government deposits from the na tional banks. The engagemt nt of OUO of cold for shipment in Prance ag gravated the effect of the money disturb ance. The small number of subscriptions to ti*o new bond issues naturally eased the demands for money, but tin return of deposits into the sub-treasury depleted supplies to such an extent as to run the money rate up to 8 per cent, quite early in the day. The reduction in the price of copper was an unsettling influence and another decline in prices at the Now York Metal Exchange kept alive uneasiness over the stability of that market. The govern ment crop report did no help to tho stocks. The lest report on the year’s corn crop was of a poor showing.

The Waterville Sentinel spends con siderable .f its valuable space in un dertaking to show that the Journal was in error in its statements regard ing the outrageous graft by which 120 Southern pilots with headquarters at Norfolk, Virginia, are permitted to levy perpetual tribute upon Northern sail ing vessels doing business with that section. We were accused of misrep resentation in asserting that when a hill repeal this iniquity was pending before the last Congress “the South line.| up in practically solid opposition to it.” It asserts that only xs South ern members of ti e iions v tied rgaimt this reiM-al measure, and in favor of the continued rule of the 120 pilot mlilars of that section. Inas much as there are only US members of tlie National House from the South tiiis would on tlic face of it seem to Mili.-tniitiute t(ce Journal's statement, t'nly 12 votes were thrown from South ern states in favor of repeal. Of this number three were from West Vir ginia; t vo from Texas; one from Mis souri; two from Virginia; one front North t'arolini; one from Georgia; one from T* inn sc, and one from Ken tucky. M will be seen that of the 12 \ot. s throe n f.,r repeal ot the pilot graft from tin South live were from border state and. although we have be i tofope considered tiiis matter from a sectional rather than a partisan standpoint, we will add that of these 12 four were thrown by Republi cans. We think our renders w ill agree, ill view of this analysis of the vote, that the Journal was fully justified in Mating ili.it “the South lined up in pr.i. f| ally solid opposition" to tin- hill repealing compulsory pilotage in South, rn ports. The second charge of tl.e Sentinel is that the Journal was in error in stating that Representative Sparkman iili| sujectcd to, if the coiii pnl.snry pilot law should hrt thri- tine much as they charge t v sse| living a foreign flat. What position are th. se git'll in to come here appealing to this Government to protect them, when tlnir patriotism is measured solely hy dollars? Mr. MADDEN. Does the gentleman wish to be understood that those pilots are licensed to perforin duties pever performed? Mr. HUMPHREY of Washington, Yes, sir; I do. They perform no duty whatever on any of the sail vessels. There has not been one on a sail vessel in the port of Norfolk for eighteen years; and yet every vessel has paid heavy pilotage fees. I mean exactly this, that these pilots are paid for duties they do not perform. So if you pass the bill, while you may take away the income of these men, you do not take away their employment. You might just as well stand here ami ask this body not to pass a bill prohibiting highway robbery because it might take an ay the employment of certain estimable gentlemen. In the olden times they used to issue licenses indulgences to highway men, and I have no doubt that when the time came to take the privilege away those highwaymen made the point that to do so would rob them of their income, and they might do it with almost as much justification as is done in this ease, when these pilots come and ask us not to take away this right because it will destroy their in come.” Mr. FORDXKY of Michigan gave a practical illustration of the tyrannical ami infamous working of the present compulsory pilot law. He said: "Due vo sol owm r who appeared before that committee showed that he had a vessel sailing into a Gulf port, as I now re member it, carrying lumber to and from those ports, which were com pel j to pay *laO pilotage fees when fereign vessels of cf eases they never touch the wheel of a ship, and >n very many eases they never go op. board tin- ship. They sit there in an organised body and issue licenses by the year to the owner of a ship or a half dozen ships. They say to him, “It is very true now, you have your own pilots. You understand how to come into these ports, (live us so many dollars and you need not take a pilot at all.” If there is any gentle man Imre who wishes to question that, here are the receipts for money and here are the statements of the men themselves that they do not go on board of the ships. They simply issue to the owners of the ship a permit for a year, for $:ini>, or $?(Ni, and the owner of the ship makes his own ar rangement for the piloting of the ship, but pays this tribute to this organiza tion. What do you call that? What would that be called in these days of "muckraking?" An honest man with a cargo going into the port of Norfolk, attempting to enter the James Itiver, ts charged a percentage of his cargo, in vs hi", ami sometimes the majority of the profit of his cargo, in order that !m may sail up that harbor, and fur nish his own pilot. He takes a re ceipt for the money, and in that re ceipt they say that they did not go on board of the ship, hut “spoke lier." "Spoke her!" In other parluiue they "t.uichid" her. (Laughter.) From Nor folk to Hast port. Air., there is no such condition, there is no such charge. From thrtit all, and boasts of its ^ability to educate the Journal, and everyone else; but it will, doubtless grow more modest as it advances. The Waterville Sentinel states that England has a tariff on imports. It might throw some light upon the situa tion if it would from out the fullness of 'its knowledge, and in pursuance of its avowed purpose to conduct a bureau of education and information, give its readers a list of the articles upon which England charges import duties. “Since appendicitis came,” remarks the Waterville Sentinel, in an editorial in which it tries to conjure out of sight the fact of Republican prosper ity. Just when did appendicitis come anyway? The Sentinel can make a valuable contribution to medical science l>y fixing the exact date. i" fc( il Maine Gossip 1! Upon a Shady Bank.

This year, as last, the worst drown ing accident of the season occurs over Bangor way. Bast year four boys or I lie graduating class of the Brewer High school were drowned while on a class picnic, arid this year six school and college boys of Bangor are drowned by the capsizing of a yacht in Penobscot bay. Tiie fireworks contract for the Bath Shipping celebration is the largest ever made for any occasion in Maine. The bare list of tile pieces to lie set off fills two columns in the Batii Independent.

A food that made Assistant Post master Kstes “feel like a two-year-old in ;i clover pasture." A food tltat makes brain in five hours and blood in four. A highly nutritious, stomachic food, made from the pineapple, and the paw-paw m> loti. lh;s, oranges, celery and a few otln r good things for the m rve.i stomach and bowels. You may lie starving your blood and bruin in the midst of plenty. It isn't how much you eat that counts, but it’s flow you digest the food you eat. You can’t get steam out of water without tire, you can’t get brain power, nerve force and blood corpuscles out of food without digestion. Thousands lack sufficient vital force and don't know why. They think they need a tonic, a va cation or a change of scenery. Hut they don’t. It’s old indigestion that’s llie matter with them, and six days’ use of my P.iseuit will prove it. They don’t get the strength out of their food. It’s like running corn through a mi!! with the rollers too wide apart; the corn goes through, but tile mill doesn’t grind. Don’t think you must have a pain to have indigestion. Pack of th sit, too much fat. j imples. blotches, sallow complexion, laid; of nerve force, inifioverishi d id.. in somnia. headache, weak brain power, m.".v all lie due to faulty digestive pro cess either in tin* stomach or bowels. Mat my P.isruil along with your other food for a week and find out how your digestive organs are working, if lie biscuit hells you greatly, gives you more force, strength and brain power, you may set it down that your stomach, livt r and bowels were doing their duty. Duly yesterday your head may have f'lt dull and heavy; you had the ‘‘blues;” were cross, nervous or irri table; everything seemed to go wrong, and you couldn't tell why. It's ten to one ii was old dyspi pain slyly getting in liis work, not enough to cause \ini pain, hut just enough to (lull your brain, rob you of your vitality, upset your liver and depli lc your in rvc force.

BRONCHIAL COUGHS. Breathe Hyomei’s Healing Air and All Irritation Will Be Quickly Cured. The most Irritating ami annoying form of cough is that termed bronchial. People subject to bron chial troubles whenever there is a change in the weather or they are ex posed to a draft will •‘catch” a bronchial cough, which Is very dis agreeable, irritating and annoying. Bronchial troubles cannot be cured by stomach dosing. The medicated air of Ily-o-mei is the only treatment that reaches the affected parts and gives relief and cure. It destroys all the disease germs that are present in the nose, throat and lungs, soothes and relieves the irritated mucous mem brane in all parts of the bronchial tubes and quickly overcomes the Irritation. Bronchitis Is really an inflammation of the mucous membrane lining the air passages anil Is purely a local disease, so that it needs a local treat ment like that afforded by Hy-o-mel. If there Is any doubt in your mind fifl to the power of Ily-o-mei to cure bronchial troubles so that the system will resist coughs and colds, the un usual way tn which it is sold by Bowditch, Webster Co., should dis pel that doubt. They agree to refund the money to any purchaser of Hy-o-mei who is not perfectly satis fied with the results following the use of the remedy. They take all the risk and if the remedy does not help you it does not cost a penny, while if it eurcs, the expense Is nominal, for a complete Hy-o-mel outfit is sold at only $1.00. Walervill* Note*. Cpome W l'.,rr, th enterptIslng drug gist, has |ilst received a large stork of Myomei. the greatest eure for catarrh.

The workmen who have been relay ins; the pavement on Water street around the drinking fountain near the federal building found more of a job than was anticipated when the work was commenced. There had been a small leak near the fountain for some time past which was thought to have come from the water pipe, lint when the paving was taken up a cavein was found which was due to a leak in the sewer which crosses Market square. The leak was closed yesterday and tln ri' will probably be no more trouble from that source. The members of King Co.. Xo. 4.

The great show of the season, the show f..r which the people of Augusta anu of the adjacent cities and towns had been waiting in pleasant anticipa tion ever since the paper was posted which announced its coming, the Forc pruigh A. Sells ltros. circus, menagerie and hippodrome, lias come and gone, and lias left, as a great show always dots, only a confused memory of the c untl ’ss features which unite to form its magnificent entirety. And in go ing it has taken with it ail the glamour and excitement attendant upon circus day, the music, the gorgeous chariots, the gaily caparisoned horses and rid ers, the dens of wild animals, the thrilling features of the circus itself, and lastly the groat crowd which as sf mbled to take in the sights. The crowd did not go with the circus of course, but those who composed it have gone back to their homes to take up again their various vocations in life which had been laid aside for the day in order that they might take in the shows. The weather was all that could be desired for a circus day and the show was thoroughly in keeping with the weather, for it lias long had the repu tation of being one of the best big shows on the road, and it certainly loses nothing in quality from year to year. The first event of the day was the arrival of the show itself which oc curred in the early hours of the morn ing, three trains being required to transport it. And following the show came the crowds to see it. Hundreds of young folks and some of the older ones got up very early yesterday morn ing to see the show unloaded from the trains, and hundreds of others living outside the city had an early breakfast in order that they might get into town in season to see the big parade. And the way they came. Some rnmc in double teams that would eariy the \v hole family, and others came in single trains that would carry but two or three, and still others who had no teams contented themselves with foot mg ii along uii- nignv\ays or iiiuKing a she!t cut across the fields. A favor ite means of transportation was found ia the electrics and the morning cars were packed to the running boards, others came on the steam cars and 10 o'clock found olio of the largest crowds that had assembled in the city for a long time. The great feature of the forenoon was the parade, which left the grounds at the Driving park soon after 10 o'clock, and which was a brilliant spectacle. It was a big one and of pleasing variety. The horses, which arc always in the Korepaitgh Sells pros, shows fine animals, were plump and well kept and their trappings were also in good condition. The riders looked contented and the chariots and \ans were resplendent in gold and colors. There were bands galore, seoies of horsemen ami horsewomen, an almost endless array of ornamented wagons, open cages of wild animals. th8 and $«.50 skirts-$2.98 Kxtra values in skirts to go at...$1.47 A few Kain eoats were $15 to $17 to go at.$4.98 Other good trades In ltain coats.

It was the promptest fire de partment that ever was seen, too. Two seconds after the first spark showed itself it was on the run around the hip podtome with the engines tooting like mad. To be sure they didn't pump any water, hut no one cared about that. Julie. Yvonne I.erocq in her auto mobile somersault act was all that was advertised and it is to be hoped that there will never be any sudden and unexpected features to her per formance. She is strapped into a small car which is then hauled to the top of the tent Oil a steep track. At the word the car is unhooked and shoots down with terrific speed. At the bottom the track turns upward in a sharp curve. Up this the car rush es. leaves the rails and turns complete ly over, not backward but forward, just the way you do not expect it to, and lands k'-rwhack on a thing that looks like a horse treadmill, tilled with big gunny sacks stuffed with hay. The three herds of elephants are ex ceptionally well trained an I gave a prompt and businesslike performance. The acrobats were clever and the bare hack riding was one of the features of the show. Then there were acts on the flying trapeze, done without lifenets under neath and the usual circus stunts fol lowed each other with orderly rapidity. There were some girls and two men who did some wonderful tightrope walking, one of the girls finishing with a cakewalk on the wire. A dozen train 'd seals, who Jug gled a drum major’s baton, balam ed balls on the tips of their noses and played toss and catch with each oth er, getting ahnu'. the stage on their flippers with surprising quickness, brought out more genuine admiration than almost any other act and the ap plause was frequent and prolonged. Interspersed among the other num bers of the program was the work of the clowns, of which there was a good ly array and who were really funny. There was Just enough of their non sense throughout the performance and not enough to make it tiresome. A noticeable feature in connection with the shows was the good order which was maintained on the grounds during the time that the attraetion was in the city. The management car ries its own police department under tit" efficient leadership of Chief Arthur McCarthy, and it is his especial charge to prevent the work of thieves and pickpockets. Taken altogether the show was an excellent one throughout and those who attended certainly got their money's worth. An automobile party in which were Mr. and Mis. I.ineoln Oreen of Boston.

Among those who are in attendance at the summer school at the l niver sity of Maine are Warren D. Trask of this city and Harold Jackman of Sher man Mills, the newly elected principal of the William R. Smith Grammar school in (his city. It is quite evident this is the height of the strawberry season, hence a good time to do the preserving.

The Augusta Witter District is building a wire fence around its prop erty at Carlcton pond, the wire being netting and of a mesh sufficiently fine to keep stock and other animals away from the pond. The total length of the fence to lie built is about 3>i miles. There is yet some work to lie done about tlie shores of the pond, which will lie attended to later in the sum mer.

The re-liandler dredge which has been working below the new wharf will be moved up river so that it can reach the wharf and will fill in the cribwork of the structure with material taki n from the bed of the river. The circus parade was somewhat delayer! yesterday forenoon by the overhead railroad bridge on upper Water street, which was rather low to allow some of the chariots to pass under it. As a rule this difficulty is avoided by the parades going up or down Fridge street hill, but that point must have been overlooked on the above occasion. Some dismount ing on the part of the circus people train the tops of the chariots was necessitated, but till finally passed un der in safety anil no damage resulted. The Fourth and the great circus day are past and farmers will now become very busy with haying. How about the multitudes of children who need to have life brightened and health built up for another school year? Who will see to it that the vacation season he a time of great joy and pleasure? 1s t the mothers, sisters and aunts attend to this and plan frequent excursions, trolley parties and delightful home gatherings.
