No Punishment for Jap Found Inspect ing Fort Rosecrans. Washington, July 11—Officials of the judge advocate general’s office today said they did not recall any statute covering the act of an individual who may be de tected making drawings of a fort or oth er government buildings on a military reservation. They said however, that such reservations, being under the control of the secretary of war, are subject to such rules and regulations as that offi cial may promulgate. Anyone who may be on tho reservation without the right to be there is a trespasser, and if found doing something that the regulations for bid is liable to ejectment or to any other punishment which may be approved. These observations were suggested as a result of the reported arrest of a Japan ese at Fort Rosecrans, Cal., while engag ed in making drawings of the defences there. The arrest is said to have been by Major Gatchell of the coast artillery, blit he has not yet reported his action to the war department, according to the state ment of the officials here. The Japanese embassy officials say they have no information regarding the arrest of one of their countrymen at Fort Rose crans. The upshot of the incident is the probability of some recommendation to Congress making it a j>enal offence for anyone to attempt to sketch or photo graph fortifications in violation of the rmre-nf xrar in ttf^'WpaTTfWm. The orders of the war department arc very strict respecting the admission of persons to visit tho coast and lake de fences, and if is p»*ov;ded that neither I writf« n nor pictorial descriptions of these work.; are to he made for publication v.it! out the authority of the socictary of war. nor is any information to be given j concerning them not contained in tlva printed reports and documents in the war department. Commanding officers at posts I whi« h are termed lake or coast defences are charged with the responsibility of preventinu. ns far ns prartical.le. visitor? j from obtaining information rotative to j such defences which would probably be communicated to a foreign power. In the opinion of the officials here, Ma« r (lateiiell. under whose authority the i arrest was made at Fort Rosecrans, can I not in the absence of any statute inflict J any punishment on the offending Jap Annual Meeting Program of American Bar Association. T'• irl land, Me., .Tilly 12.—The pro grams fur the annual meetings of the Ameriean I!:tr Association and the In ternational I .aw Association to lie held in tliis city tlie week y Alton I!, l’arkcr of New York, j.resident of till’ American association, lie will communicate the most noteworthy changes in statute law on points of p neriil interest made in the several states and by Congress during the preceding year.

Ho would have been Justified In putting him oft the reservation. If the offender persisted, then he might destroy the drawings he was taking, or even smash a camera it one were being used. The offender might return the next day and the same proceedings gono over with and yet the man might not bo punished. Late in (lie day Mr. Miyaoka, the coun selor of the Japanese embassy, called on Acting Secy. Adee to ascertain whether the government had received any notice of the reported arrest of the Japanese at Fore Itosecrans. He was told that neither tiie state nor the war department had been so advised. JAPANESE PLEASED At Conclusion of Friendly Agreement With French Government.

THE EXPERIENCE OF MANY WOMEN Demonstrate Beyond AH Cavil That Pe-ru-na Is 4 Safe and Useful Household Remedy. Read What the Women Say. Vsy> Chronic Hoarseness. Mrs. Delia C. Cameron, Healdsburg, Cal., member Daughters of America, writes: “Having tried many remedies for chronic catarrh of the bronchial tubes, and not receiving any benefit, I began to think there was no help for me until I began to use Peruna. “In a short time the bronchial tubes began to clear, I did not have that ‘frog in my throat’ continually, my voice was not nearly so husky, and the wheezing noise disappeared. “I was soon able to believe that I was entirely free from catarrh, and as this was several months ago, I do not believe that it will return.” The above group of women could be multiplied by ton thousand without reaching the number that have been helped by taking Peruna. Catarrh of the Stomach. Miss Emily Koch,fill Michigan Ave., Sheboygan, Wis., writes: “I can heartily recommend Pernna for catarrh of the stomach. 1 had tried many things which did me no g ".d and as a last resort I got. a bottle of i’eruna. “I only regret that I did not try it be fore I forced so much had stuff into my stomach. It has entirely cured me and as a preventative 1 always keep a bottle in the house. “I gladly recommend it to all who are afflicted as I was.” A Wasting Disease. Mrs. Roxa Tyler, 0210 Madison Avenue, Chicago, 111., Vice President of the Illinois Woman’s Alliance, writes: “During the past year I gradually lost flesh and strength until I was unable to perform my work properly. I tried different remedies, and finally Peruna was suggested to me. “It gave me now life and restored my strength. I cnn.it speak too highly of It.” Bronchial Catarrh. Mrs. Wm. Ilohmann, 009 N. Paulina St., Chicago, 111., writes: “I suffered with catarrh of tht bronchial tubes and had a terrlbl» cough ever since a child. When a child it was supposed to be whooping cough or the croup, but os 1 got older It got worse. “After a while it got so had 1 had to cough both winter and summer. aally I burst a blood vessel in my throat from the strain of coughing, next a blood vessel In my stomach, so I kept jetting worse and doctoring, and e?ea then could get no relief. “I went to a dispensary for treatment, but it all done me no good. At night I tould never lie on my back. 1 wouldeit ip until two or throe o’clock in tht norning before I could close my evet, rhen of course, I thought, and every, jody else that I had consumption. “Reading the papers about Peronal leeided to try it without the least hopt bat it would do me any good, ltut after aking three bottles I noticed a change, My appetite got better, «o I kept on, lever got discouiaged. “Now I can lie on my hack and Bleep ill night, and you may well think huv hankful I am for Peruna.’* GARDINER Charles Thsxter Weymouth. . aratt”. s s. ape.l with merely :i ::-vi re shaking tip. so that she was aid. t.. to h r homo ae eoinpanied liy her companions v.ho were on the ear.

Another location on the Ridge road would comprise the Finnemore farm of 100 acres: the lioutello farm, 120 acres; the Wormed property, .17 acres; on each of which options had been se cured.

Mr. Haines thought that the T.ibby properly on tin* Fairfield road in an ideal siUiatb n, if the land could be secured. Mr. Haines said that the difficulty appeared fo be to get people interested. The rto.eiaiiir and Council are anxious to have land enough at the start. Mr. Haines believed that Hie location shout 1 be where there was good fire protection. “I think we have just as g.. a show to have this institution located here." said Mr. Haines. "If we can. start tiiem in wilh water. light and electric car service right to the door of tlie Institution, it will lie a great in ducement.” Hon. Charles F. Johnson thought that there could he but one opinion as to the desirability of the location here of ilu' institution, lie could sin* no rea son why it would not be desirable. A location near the electric cars com mended itself. Kdwar-I C. Crosby, a member of the committee, had gathered some data as to the amount of money the Insane hospital haves in Augusta. He said that about JtLTi.ofin annually is expended in Augusta. ?40.000 of which goes to the farmers. The proposed in stitution for the f. bio minded would have twin as many inmates and lie believed that it was fair to assume that the same amount would be left by the proposed inslitutinn. “The financial standpoint is such,” said Air. Crosby, “that I do not believe our business men can afford to lose sight of the proposition.” lie believed that the plant when com pleted would cost S1.tmn.inMi, the institu tion to provide for l'.'Mi inmates. The report of the progress of the work bv the committee was accepted. "It seems to me.” said Hon. S. S. Brown, "that anyone who would ridi cule this idea, is not worth having his opinion considered.” “Perhaps lie might belong in Ihe in stitution," suggested President Eaton. Mr. Haines and Mr. Crosby said they would like to have the committee made larger. The lawyers present discussed bow far the right of eminent domain ap plied in the present matter. It was voted io add three members to the committee. The matter of all-night service at the postofHoe was brought tip. Postmaster Perham S. Ileald said that he believed that Congressman Burleigh would be willing to listen to the request of Waterville for an all night service at the postoffice. Mr. Haines moved that Congressman Burleigh i,e requested to take up the matter of all-night service. Hon. S. S. Brown asked whether it was not a fact that some letter boxes are not collected until afternoon. “Some,” said Postmaster Ileald. He 1 thought that whoever visits Congress I TRADE. red on Two Sites Feeble Minded ice Discussed. man Burleigh regarding r.ll-niglit ser vice .should also sop about the matter of delivery. Discussion developed the fact that the business of the Waterville postof fico is now $60,000, while it was $30,000 six years ago. In this time the force of carriers has been increased a man and half. It was voted to present the matter to Congressman Burleigh. Mr. Johnson moved that S. S. Ilrown and William T. Haines be a committee to present the matter. S. K. Whitcomb brought up for the consideration of the board the freight facilities of the .Maine Central Rail road at Waterville. Within the last 30 ln>s he had ordered goods in Augusta on Monday and received them on Thursday. Shipments from Portland were equally slow. Hardly a case of goods comes, hut has been broken open and a part of the contents taken out. T\ A. Hall said that the cars stand between four and live hours in the up per yard. •a lakland, Winthrop or any side sta tions are getting better freight service than we tire getting here in Waterville. All the explanation we get is a nice, piiet smile,” concluded Mr. llall. X. K. Puller moved that a commit tee be appointed to present the inade quacy ot the freight service to the ofli ciais of the Maine Central Railroad at Portland, aiul the motion was parried. The matter of the College avenue crossings was brought up. Hon. Wil liam T. Haines said that the way for the matter to he settled was for the city to unite with the railroad in the construction of viaducts beneath the railn >ad. The boar I w as adjourned at 8.f>0 P. M. President Eaton will announce later lilt* committees whose appointment was authorized at the meeting. A Good Chance In Waterville. Tlio following clipped from the Bel fast correspondence in tile Weekly Mail will tie of interest to members of tile Waterville Board of Tra-.le and citizen.* generally, inasmuch ns it may he pos sible to interest the Massachusetts company in this city as a suitable place in which to locate: “Mayor Hanson received a letter re cently from the W. L. Douglass Shoe Manufacturing Company of Brockton, Mass., stating that it intended start ing a brunch factory in Maine and would send an expert to Belfast to in vestigate. it will lie a good tiling for Belfast ami tile people will no doubt realize this and will offer all the in ducements possible to get the plant here, of course other eities will make a try to capture tho prize and Belfast will have to hustle to win out.” Among the ‘‘other cities” Waterville may safely be reckoned. Concerns such as the Douglass Shoe Co. could certainly do no better than to investi gate the excellent facilities for ship ping their products which this railroad center affords. Principal O. S. Stevenson of Coburn Classical Institute returned to this city Friday morning front Hansport. N. S„ where, with Mrs. Stevenson, he is tak ing his annual summer vacation.

The indications are that, as this is his first season In the big league, lie Isn't yet acquainted with the direction in which the players of tile opposing learns lilt the hall Pntil he learns tills Manager Murray may keep Oaborne on the bench, hut if would not be surprising in the face of Titus’ slump In batting if the young recruit gets a place in right field very soon. At any rate, whether he gets a place now or later, Osborne looks to he a player who will bear watching. With such a good man on the bench the regulars can't afford to let down In their plating, and this will be a benefit to the team as a whole. i t i t a a I r I I a n t l V h a S b u w it d t: tl V U kogef: bkesxaiiax.

BIG ED DELEHANTY Tells How He Learned to Bat the Big League Pitchers. Big Ed Delehanty, the pioneer of that celebrated family of hall players, and whose "swatting” was the wonder of the baseball profession, was often approached by players and scribes as to his ability to keep up his stick work so regularly, hut he never deigned to reply except to say it was horn in him. But once in a while the big fellow unbent, and the way he used to "shoot the gaff” into the green one was a caution. One day at the ball park out on Seventh street the rain pre vented the continuance of the game with the Philadelphia team, of which Del was a member, and there was quite a group sitting around J. Earle Wagner, the own er of the Washingtons, passing the "con" round rather freely. Jimmy McJamcs was then pitching for the Washingtons, and on his turn up prior to the rain Del Jia.d soaked one of his out shoots for keeps, much to the discomfiture of Mc.Tames, who was then a rather green one from South Carolina, and lie broke imu me eon immediately: “How did you learn to unune curve pitching so well, Mr. Pclehanty, may I ask?” McJames asked politely. The appellation of “Mr.” railier took belehanty off his seat. “Oh. that was easy,” replied ihe mighty Pelehantv. “You see, my father was a fireat naturalist and made a fancy of training birds, and particularly these cranky bats that fly around at night. AVhen T gave up my studies at college and determined to play baseball, my dad used to go in a long room, and, placing me un der a bright light, send the bats out of the cages in my direction. You know' how bats curve around in their flying, and my dad made it obligatory that I must hit every one that curved in my direction. I did. and that’s how I gauge you 'jays' who think you know a tiling or two about curves.” McJames took it all in, and Win Mer cer used to take him out on ihe lots evenings to practice hitting the i.ats, and it was a long time before McJames dropped to the fact that the “king of batsmen” was giving him a stringing for daring to rail him "Mr." Delehanty, w net, every other player in uniform had Permission to any BOXING NOTES.

Certain Restrictions, of Course, but a Great Improvement. Washington, July 12.—For years Americans and others have been send ing to the I'nited States from foreign countries postal cards and post-cards (private mailing cards) with messages written on the front as well as the back of the cards, although In this country this advantage lias been de nied the users of private postal cards. Some months ago the I'nited States postal regulations were amended so as to give that privilege to buyers of post vards, but such concession was not made applicable to postal cards. In order to remedy this inconsis tency Postmaster fleneral Meyer today promulgated an order effective Aug. 1, 1907. providing that the face side of a postal card may he divided by a ver tical line placed approximately one third of the distance from the loft end of the card; the space to the left of the line to be for a message, etc., the por tion to the right to be used for the ad dress only. A very thin sheet of paper may he attached if it completely adheres to the card and such a paster may bear Kith writing and printing. Advertise ments, illustrations or writng may ap pear on the hack of the card and on the left third of the front. Postal cards hearing particles of glass, metal, mica, sand, tinsel or other such substance are declared to lie un meilnble, except when enclosed in en velopes with proper postage affixed, or when treated in such a manner as will prevent objectionable materials from being rubbed off or injuring the hands of persons handling the mails. The contractor at Rum ford Falls, Me., is no-v putting in new machinery for the manufacture of postal cards, and the department will furnish plates for postal cards of a new design con forming to the conditions of the amend ed regulations.

Address all communications relating to subscriptions and advertisements to BURLKIGH FLY NT. Publishers. Augusta, Maine. Saturday, July 13, 1907. It is saio\vn in ur lorctathers Knew m,lining nr lilt* in great cities as they exist to-day, great cities where there is not even a suggestion of green growing tilings, of jmre atmosphere anil running water, of great cities such as exist to-day with their intense and eternal struggle for the almighty dollar. And so, while the vacation season is a modern insti tution, it is ji necessity of the times, and if the country should go without it tor a single year the results to the intellectual and business life of the land would lie something which stag gers the imagination. Here itt Maine, which hs coiumoiily spoken of its the summer playground of the nation, the vacation habit which tiie rest of the country has a bopted is looked upon as one of our greatest business assets, and as this habit lias grown and as the attractions of our great State have become better known, att increasing multitude has i onic here each year. There is room and wi Iconic for them all, not only at the great atnl famous resorts of the shore and of the interior, hut at hun br-d-nf other less known and equally attractive places where camps and small hotels await them, on the thou sands of farms and in the quiet coun try villages throughout the State and in the depths of the great woods that |stretch northward to Canada. Each day and each train is bringing them now, not only the multitudes of those wim tiro brought hither by the old home spirit, hut the greater manlier of those from the great cities and the less favored parts of the land who come to spend their summer vacations in tioautilul Maine. As for our own people, here in Maine, of course there tire no great cities and no such life at high pressure as is common in the large centers, but nevertheless we all need and should take a vacation front our usual duties of life sometime during the summer season, it is often not so much tin* rest that we need as it is a change of scene which will enable us to work at our allotted task during the rest of the year with renewed vigor and enthusi asm. Whatever the work, whether in o'lice, store, factory or in tiie home, nobody can afford to go through tiie year without a vacation. Both body and mind demand it and it is a de fiance of the laws of nature not to take it. Those who work at out-of door tasks where they get bet ter air and more ex -reise than toilers at desks and counters, benches and looms, iievi rtheless need a vacation and a change front the daily routine and tiie familiar -scenes of everyday life. Some people boast that they have not taken a vacation for a dozen jtars or a score of years, bat such persons ure deserving alike of pity and censure. They are defrauding them selves of what Is best in life, anil If they work for others they are de frauding those who employ them; more than this they are actually cut ting short the remaining years which they have to live. If you belong to this class do not belong to it any long er. The Journal sincerely hopes that none of its readers who toil for a liv ing will fail to take at least a few weeks’ vacation before this glorious summer season is ovi r. The Journal and Sentinel in Accord on Compulsory Pilotage. The Kennebec Journal replying to our criticism of its editorial in regard to tile defeat of the pilotage bill in the last Congress, still insists that the bill was beaten by Southern Demo crats and asserts, in support of its position that SS out of 113 Southern members voted againts it. f*f course they did. Our point was not that the bill was not opposed by Southern members. We said that it was.— Waterville Sentinel. At? the point made by the Journal was that "the South lined up in prac tically solid oppostion” to the repeal of the law which permits 1-0 Southern pilots to levy perpetual tribute upon Northern shipping it would seem after all to be in accord with its Watcr vtlle contemporary. The statement that $S out of the 11,3 members from the South voted in favor of the retention of this notorious graft is, however, a trifle misleading, inasmuch as only 100 of them wore present and voted on the bill for repeal. We are gratified to learn that the Sentinel agrees with us that the hill for repeal "ought to have passed. The Journal stated its belief that a section of the country which was so ready to sacrifice the shipping interests of Maine and New Knglaud, in order that a select body of 130 Southern pilots might continue to grow rich by levying a robber tribute upon it, would have scant consideration for the interests of this section if once it were in control of the National government. We feel sure that the Sentinel, upon further consideration of the mat ter, will agree with us on this propo sition also. "jarnr reduction, romarKs me* Watcrville Sentinel, “must be gradual and mutt be gone at carefully and con servatively.’1 Certainly it must if it is not to destroy our present prosperity, and, furthermore, it must be done by the friends and not by the enemies of protection We confess our belief that any legislation of this kind should be in charge of Northern men, and not the free trade statesmen of the Sunny South where cotton is King and who dominate affairs at Wash ington when the Democratic party is in power. We do not think that even the Sentinel will seriously claim that the representatives of that section would have any solicitude for Maine interests, or that they could be trusted to revise the tariff gradually, carefully, nr c mservativcly. The chances are that in any revision tin? interests of Maine will nevt r be so carefully safe guarded as they are today under the Dingley tariff law, and, in any re vision conducted by Southern Demo crats, it is equally certain that they would not be safeguarded at all. The Kennebec Journal objects to “licensing the liquor traffic and per mitting it to do an open business un der tin* sanction of the law, as advo cated by the Sentinel.” The Sentinel does not advocate licensing the liquor traffic.—Waterville Sentinel. How long since the Sentinel has abandoned the position so strongly ad vocated by a former editor? We are glad Indeed to learn that our Water ville contemporary has seen a new light with reference to licensing the liquor traffic; but the above statement is the first intimation we have had lliat it has Hopped on this matter. Personal Notes. ftislmp Foss, accompanied by his daugh ter. is u his way P- Hi a/ll to visit the mission? n| the Methodist Kpiscopal y I.icutenant Shackleton. who was a mcm ber of Captain S«ott*s «icw, and will shortly start for the far South T1k* ex P. say that tiiere is no ground for the re port. which some of the papers have printed during the past week, that the steamer Camden may l»e withdrawn from the Boston and Penobscot route, on account of the difficulty met and handling her in making landings on the rivir. It is true that it is more •liilicult to make landings with a pro peller than a sidewheeler, and that considerable trouble lias been experi enced with the Camden in this respect, lmt in all other points the boat is per fectly adapted to ilie route for which she was built, and this trouble can and will be remedied by alterations in the wharves. Pending these changes, the Camden has discontinued her landings at North port and Searsport, and the business there is attended to by the City of Rockland, which makes three trips per week. The last and only schooner owned in the port of York lies a hopeless wreck on the rocks at the mouth of the Cape Ncddick river. Bast Saturday night the Florence was lying off Concoril ville. and its the weather looked threatening, her master decided to take h‘'r into the mouth of Cape Ncddick river tor shelter, as was cu.-.tomai y during storms. The night was dark and stormy, and when almost in the mouth of the river the Florence struck with gnat force on a submerged ledge, smashed a jagged hole in her bottom and filled. The. crew got ashore in safety, nut the vessel was beyond re pairing and has been stripped an 1 abandoned. Many people have visited Florence, where at low tide she lies in a peculiar and unusual position on her beam i mis with stern high in air, an 1 liable at any time to go to pieces. The old schooner was well known to York summer residents, who have enjoyed many delightful fishing flips aboard her. It was with much regret that they learned of her destruction. The Florence was owned by Capt. Freeman and Haverhill parties, was valued at $2,000 and partially insur She had just been overhauled for the season and more than $200 expended on her. She was originally a Boston pilot boat, hut had been owned at York for up wards of 20 years. Though built in 1S07 she was still in line condition and apparently good for many more years. She was of 111 tons gross register, 00 feet long. 20 feet wide and 7 feet 7 Inches depth of hold. It has been discovered that the south tower of the historic and beauti ful old King Chapel at Bowdoin was struck by lightning during one of the recent storms. The stone work was considerably damaged, it being esti mated that repairs will require the ex penditure of about $1000. This is tho second time th«- building has been a target for lightning, a holt hitting the north tower seven or eight years ago. The damage at that time was almost identical with that sustained in the present instance. The Maine Historical Society has been presented a large marble bust of Edward Everett, the American states man, which was made to Benjamin Paul Akers, a former Portland boy, in Rome in isr,«. The bust was given to the society by ten of the city's lean ing citizens. They were Hon. Charles 1 F. Eihby, Hon. .lames P. Baxter, Hon. Joseph \Y. Symonds, Rev. Ur.

The I'uitariun cliureli in Bangor Is to receive extensive alterations did improvements which will greatly en hance the value of the property and make it one of the most handsomely decorated churches in tile city. It is estimat'd that the total cost of the work to he done will aggregate $9000 or $10,iMio. The walls will he painted, pews stained, and new cushions fur nished. New windows will probably he a feature. The pastor's study is to he renovated and the outside of the building painted. An organ is to he purchased at a cost of about $5,000, the committee to he aided in its selec tion by Arthur Foote of Boston. Says “The Tattler” in the Portland Advertiser. “One of the meanest tricks that ever came to my notice occurred this morning on Congress street near the junction of Oak. A woman was pushing a go-cart in which rode a bright-eyed little boy who lovingly embrac' d a good-sized Teddy bear. Something attracted the little one's attention and the bear rolled out of his lap into tile gutter. It was un noticed by both mother and child. Uircctly behind them was a well dressed man travelling in the same direction. Upon reaching the spot where the bear was dropped he stepped into tlie road and picked the toy up. He looked after the woman and the boy and seeing that they had not dis cover'd their loss he pushed his tiud into his pocket and resumed his walk. As he caught up with and passed the carriage he glanced into it and seeing tiiat the boy was empty handed covered iiis bulging pocket with tits arm and proceeded on his way." DIED A NDROSCOGGIX.

CHURCH SON, HALLOWELL, ME," Eat for contentment. Eat for good nature. Both arc the result of physical health. The most nutritious food made from flour is Uneeda Biscuit Every bite a mouthful of energy. i In dust and moisture proof packages. NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY They Have Arrived Iw win say: There is not the customary com plaint of mid-summer dullness in con era! trade channels, while the demand for seasonable fabrics is rapidly de pleting stocks that threatened to be carried over. Brisk retail trade is ae compani'd by more prompt collections and many cities tlint were slow to re spond to the better feeling now send satisfactory reports. Quiet conditions prevail in the prim ary markets for cotton goods, but the mills are fully occupied and there is no prospect of easier terms, owing to the large amount of business and contracts unless extensive cancellations arc re ceived. Tlie strength of the market is due to the statistical position, buyers being compelled to wait longer for de liveries than ever before in the history of tiie industry. It is also noted that requests are urgent for earlier for warding than the date under contract, showing the light stocks in ether than first hands, and there Is no prospect of relief during the balance of this year at least. A little increase is noted in the de mand lor hides and further improve ment is anticipated. It is now the sea son of desirable short-haired domestic hides, upon whicli full quotations arc demanded. The chief drawback is the larger supply of winter hides still held by packers and dealers in this coun try, and the principal foreign markets tire also overstocked. Antwerp and Havre held 350,00V bides and the River I’latte slaughter during the first six months of IS.7 was SOO.oflP more cattle than last year. This statistical position tends to limit tanners’ purchases to immediate needs only. The only defi nite change in prices was a further re duction of half a cent in Latin-Ameri ean hides. Failures this week number in the I nited States against 202 !«.st par, and 2S in Canada compared with 21 a year ago. Bradstreefs State of Trade will say tomorrow of trade conditions in Can ada: Favorable weather has still farther stimulated retail trade distribution in Canada and enlarged re-order trade "it'1 jobbers, the result being that trade opinion is much more optimistic than scepied possible some time ago.

Board of State Asses sors a Busy One. Somelhing About Its Work In Tiraberlands ot Maine. E. F. J. Follona of Portland, New Binder at Capitol. STATE HOUSE CALENRAD. Next Meeting of Governor and Council, Tuesday, Aug. 13, at 10 A. M. Among the busy ones among the State officials at the present time are the members of the Board of State Assessors, Otis llayford of Canton, e called the crop prowitur on them, that is the quantity of stnndinp timber in pine, .spruce, cedar, poplar fir. and also white bin h, but tie presence of hard woods adds very little to the value of these lands. The location of the timherlands also affects the value. In the old days when prices tven low and profits not so Iar;;e as at present, the owners of timber lands used to claim that when they had to haul timber more than seven tnilPR to a waterway there was no prolit in it, but with modern facilities for transportation, Kreater demand and hlpher prices, the value of tile timharlands have been in creased *md existing conditions have brought about a change for the better. Tile timbcrland owner's picat fear is fire. When a lire occurs In n city or town, one or more buildinps are destroyed, and a large percentage of the property de stroyed Is insured, but in the timherlands tlie fire carries with it an irreparable loss. The trees are killed, twig and branch, and If the ground Is covered with dry material the fire eats into the soil itself, killing rools and all, so that many years are required for the soil to recover suf ficiently for even prass to prow upon it. There are many tracts of land in the State which show the results of these fires, in acres and acres of dead and blasted trees. A preat deal has been done however within the past few years to pre vent forest fires by the establishment of lookout stations and the organization of an efficient force of fire wardens, which lias preatly reduced ttie danper of whole sale destruction of forests through that agency. Kdwnrd F. J. Follona of Portland has been enpaped at the Capitol ns hinder, to fill the vacancy in that position which was caused by the retirement of W. H. Follette a year apo. Mr. Follona is said to be a master of the art nnd will doubt less attend to the duties of the position to the satisfaction of all. The new office of Charles P. Hatch, the Plate auditor, which Is located In the room on the second floor of the Capitol and which was formerly used as a private olfice for the State treasurer, has been newly furnished, the last arrivals be!rip two roll-top desks and a typewriter desk, which were placed in the office yesterday morninp.

Mr. Punch is so powerfully impressed by the action of the Lord Chamberlain in suppresing all performances of the “Mikado” (and thereby throwing into confusion a large number of provincial theatrical engagements) that he is moved to follow suit. He therefore forbids his readers, all and several, and ihe Britsh public at large, to continue (he laceration of national and foreign susceptibilties by the employment in speech, writing, singing, gramophoning, >r marconigram, of any expressions ap pearing in the subjoined list: “To take French leave." "Made in Germany.” "Castles in Spain.” "He is full of Dutch courage.” “Scratch a Russian and you'll find a tarter.” "He is a regular Turk.” “Spoiling the Egyptians.” “Can tlie Ethiopian change his skin?” "Lo, tlie poor Indian.” “For ways that arc dark, the Heath en Chinee is peculiar.” "Go to Jericho.” "They didn't know everything down in Judee.” "Caledonia, stern and wild.” "IIow very Hibernian.” "Taffy was a Welshman, Taffy was a thief.” “To behave like a boor.” John Bull has so many ententes on hand just now. that Mr. Punch is liv ing in momentary terror last any of them should be imperilled by some chalice and indiscrete allusion dropped at a Little Peddlington Penny-reading.

Dimock writes of a lyWil visit to one ol tlie islands of the i/vorghulcs, where he went to study the many kinds ot wild birds living there. No Sims were tired. and the birds seeing that no harm was intended soon became tame. “Day alter day wv paddh'J our canoe in the little sloughs around and through the rookery, and each day the birds grew tamer. T he camera-man waded and climbed trees, cut poles and made long legs tor his camera, until he got the views lie wanted 01' eggs and young birds, while the mother birds fussed around him and scolded at first, but sometimes came back to their nests before the work was lin ished. Nature worked daily miracles through these young birds. One day they were egg-shaped p«niches of parchment, stuffed by their parents with lumps of d'*ad fish, and in a few hours, by processes so rapid as to be almost visible, they had converted the offensive mass into living liesh and feathers, and in a few days evolved form and beauty from a chaos of [•orrnptiop. When the camera-man want ed young birds that had graduated from their nests, they had to be chased through the swamp ami followed up the trees, and our hunter-bov went, up the latter like a squirrel and sloshed through mud and water like an otter, sometimes for a long distance, but he always brought back his bird, even if ite had to cross deep sloughs to get him. He taught the birds* lie caught to pose by petting them an«l putting them on the branches chosen by the camera-man. and when they scrambled away, by catching them •gain, scolding thorn, stroking them. “The system never failed at the time, but when afterwards we paddled among l lu* nests, certain vociferous young birds scrambled in haste from their homes to the tops of the tallest trees, and curlew matrons croaked from their nests, •Johnnv can’t pose today; 1« isn’t feel ing weM.” I'.irds too young to get away Acre very friendly, and from many nests our approach was hailed with cries of v ome, and mouths opened wide lor the h. and frogs that often went with us. Mother birds, too. grew unfearful, and as we fed their babies, looked on with com placency if not gratitude. One snnke lilrd, nr’wafer-turkey, which on our first •all dropped from her nest into the water in the clumsy fashion of her species, on our later visits merely stepped aside and viewed with approval our performance* of her duty. Her two youngsters used to stand on the extreme edge of the nest, with wide-opened bills extended for the delicacies we brought them, until one of them fell into the water, and win n wo tried to rescue him, gave a full-grown exhibition of the aquatic skill which was us inheritance. That night he disap peared. and we thought we knew the liawk that got Mm, but couldn’t afford to destroy with a gun the confidence of nnr feathered cronies, even to avenge one of them.” The Youngest Soldier. According to Loosing, the historian, :bo distinction of having been the roundest soldier that over bore* arms in battle probably belongs to Col. John Lincoln Clem, assistant quartermaster ceneral. United States army, who is at iresont stationed at San Francisco, is a drummer boy in May, 1R61, before ie had reached the age of ton years. Je served thereafter to the end of the ’ivil War, under Gens. Grant, Rose rans and Thomas, and took an active [)art in many important battles. \V hen only twelve years old he was nade a sergeant of Company C. Pwenty-second Michigan regiment, on he battlefield of Chickamauga for >ravery, and was appointed as per sonal orderly to Gen. Thomas. Ho was nore widely known as the “drummer >oy of Shiloh,” and as such he is re tired to in most histories of the Civil iVar.
