Warm Weather mul Heavy Bains Help Their Growth, Problem Bothers New England »A Late Harvest. B. July 16.—Crops gent-rally noghout Massachusetts, made rap id development during the recent warm weather atyt heavy rains, and many ol tHiem have overcome the handirai •which the cold spring laid n them fTl)t prosjwrts for an abundant harvest A OWSt*cases tire now good, although >mh-'Of the crops will not be in a enn Ition to gather until later than usual. The Itay crop flourished under the cold weather of the spring, and the cut thus far has been of a very heavy and ri«t: grade. Potatoes have benelitled jhuch by the late rains, tlie early yield showing fine quality. The outlook lor a large crop is a good one. The corn plants have not yet recovered from their early setback and the ears will appear in much smaller numbers t’.iis year than is usual. Practically all classes of fruit have suffered front the inclement spring, and the invasion of the trees by pests in some localities lias also tended to re tard the growth considerably. Apples arc of very poor quality and the fruit is weeks behind. Th" peach crop is an absolute failure, the delicate fruit being unable to withstand the so Vere weather of (Ik- spring. As this is not a pear year this fruit will not lie of very good quality and the yield is ex pected to be very small. The early cabbage plant weathered the spring hardship in good shape and although somewhat backward tin- crop promises well, both as to size and oon fiitii n. The late cabbage is now being I planted and xylll receive the benefit of ^favorable weather. The tobacco crop throughout the western part of the ■•"state is in a healthy condition, although ^Jtout n fortnight later than usual. The raisers believe that the prospects for a large yield are good and expect to have their crops gathered before the early frosts set in If the present weather it’continiu s. The help problem is one that Is botli Iping the farmers, not only In Massa Jjjgttsr-11 s, but nil over New Kngland.

TIES ACROSS RAILS. i Man and Girl Save a Train-Rob bers Hold Up aTrain-TwoKilled. Connellsville, Pa., July 16.—An at tempt to wreck the Baltimore Ohio Du'tuesne Limited train No. 12, a short distance west of Sand Patch tunnel last night, was frustrated by Stephen Der rigan, a leverman at Sand Patch, and a girl with whom he was walking along the track. Just west of the tunnel they found a tie fastened across the rails and when they attempted to remove it they were fired upon from the bushes. They hastily fled to Sand Patch where they flagged the train. Members of the crew headed by Con ductor James Reed, all heavily armed, advanced to the scene, opened fire on the bushes without getting a return shot and removed the obstruction. Had the train struck the tics there would have probably been a serious disaster as it was crowded with Klks bound for Philadelphia. TRAIN HELD UP. Robbers Capture a Train and Kill Two Harvest Hands. Cherryvale, Kas., July 1G.—Two rob bers held up a St. Louis and San Fran cisco freight train five miles east of here today and shot an.l killed O. J.

Well Equipped and Has a New Scien tific Instrument. Tromsoc, Norway, July 16.—The young explorer Lerner has sailed from here to Spitzbergen with the object of mapping out tie- northeast coast of the main island. He goes first to Walter Wellman’s station on Dane’s island, where he w ill observe the preparations of that explorer until the ascent of Wellman and his men. then Lerner will leave on his own expedition. He hopes to extend his exploration to the Interior of Spitzbergen, an exceed ingly difficult task, as it is only par tially known through the expedition of Nordenskiold, who passed over the ice here in 1S7X Until that time, the Northeast coast was doubled only once, by the Norwegian seal hunter. Klling Unrisen, who has described this part of the coast as an “uninterrupted ieo wall." Sometime Inter Lerner and Prof. Nathorst doubled the island, but had no opportunity to may out its east coast. Lerner is accompanied by Count Ponisky and Herr Von Roof), both lieutenant colonels in (he Herman army. He is well equipped, having all the necessary scientific instruments, in cluding a new one, the pototheodolite, whieh, it is stated, can make topo graphical measurements by a photo graphic derive. The expedition will also carry a balloon for the purpose of mak ing atmospherical observations. Lerner will endeavor to double Cape Torell at the southern mouth of Hin loocn strait. He plans to continue next year the exploration of the sea between Spitsbergen archipelago and Franz Jo seph land, to remain there during the winter with headquarters on the Seven Islands, and to proceed in tin* spring of to the mystorica! Oilles-Lnnd. or to the archipelago that is thought to exist between hte two groups of is lands. the Spitzbergen and the Franz Joseph. GIGANTIC THEATRE TRUST Is Said to Be Planned. With Klaw Erlanger At the Head. Chinaco. July lG.-The Daily News says that plans for the formation of a OHO.OOO trust in the world’s theatres be came known today. A lawyer represent ing Klaw Erlanger. it is said, sailed from New York today for London to pass upon tlte local features of tlte plans be fore their acceptance by the syndicate for which they were prepared. The International Theatre Trust will, according to report, not only control the best theatres in Europe, but have under contract tlte highest talent in legitimate and vaudeville fields. The attempted formation of tills new theatrical undertaking is said to grow out of the recent decision of tlte New York courts that theatres amt amusements are not "trade and commerce” anil therefore their combination is not in violation of law. A. L. Erlanger is quoted as saving: M[ will say that it is true that we are about to make out Interests coextensive with Europe and America.” Admiral Yamamoto At Montreal. Montreal.

Capt. McCrea won tlie love of every mail on that ship yesterday. Time and again he came down to the hospital and would bend over some dying fellow with his face close to the lips that were trying to speak and try to make out the last words and then turn away with the feelings of his heart written on Ids face. All tlie officers and the men be haved splendidly through it all and there was no confusion. Its a fine ship and if I go back I want to go back to the Georgia.” Hansel is a sturdy fellow, with a keen eye and a quiet ready manner that indicates a cool head and quick wit. His kitty box was brought to him in the hospital today and he showed more interest in this than he did in his injuries. it was in the turret with him and the outside was blistered and blackened. He opened it and was happy for the little treasures inside were unharmed. Two huge boxes arrived at the naval hospital at 11 o'clock today, one marked for Midshipman Cruse and the other ‘‘For tlie Sailors of the Georgia.” They were from Admiral Yamamoto and each was filled with flowers and the hospital authorities, for tlie in jured men. will express to the distin guished Japanese visitor appreciation of hfs thoughtfulness. f the injured men.

It is expected that instructions for flic disposition of the four other bodies will be received in the next 24 hours. Seaman Walsh’s mother and brother arrived early this morning at the hos pital. The mother recognized her son and kissed him. He showed that lie I recognized her by stretching out one hand toward her. but he could not speak. Bear Admiral Goodrich returned to New York at S o’clock this morning. He was with his son an hour before he died, but the young man was un conscious. Mrs. Goodrich bore up bravely under her grief.

AGAIN ON PRACTICE GROUNDS. Georgia’s Crew Saddened, But Not Afraid, After Terrible Accident. Washington. July 16.—Admiral Urownson. chief of the bureau of nav igation. conferred with Acting Secre tary Newberry as soon as the navy department opened for business today, regarding the accident yesterday on the battleship Georgia in which nine men lost their lives and a number of others were injured. The admiral bad with him all of the dispatches which had been received overnight from the com- i mandant of the Boston navy yard i and from other sources. These related 1 however, largely to the dead and in- .imed. for whose (‘.ire and attention or- ders were promptly given by the-act- ing secretary. Tiie dispatches convey i no Information not already published; indeed the data available from them is not as complete as that in the news papers. The report of the investigation board which will examine into the cause of the accident is anxiously looked for by the naval officials. This is expected to come by wireless telegraph from Admiral Thomas, commanding the second division of the battleship fleet, as soon as the board's work is com pleted. Some comment is likely to be caused by the action of the navy department in ordering the Georgia to return to the range and resume her target prac tice as soon as the victims of the ac cident had been removed from the ship at the Boston navy yard. The explana tion is found In the fact that there Is extreme danger of a general demoral ization of the crew of the ship which has sustained such an accident if they arc permitted to brood over it before undertrking again t handle the big guns. Tic- almost inevitable result is a loss of “nerve.” such as acrobats suffer when they have sustained a fall, the only means of avoiding which Is to immediately renew the attempts to ac complish a particular feat of strength or agility which led to the accident. So in the case of the Georgia, it was felt to be absolutely necessary to get the men again into the turrets at tlieir work of handling the big guns, treat ing the disaster as just such an acci dent as might occur in the heat of ac tion with a foe. Advices received at the navy depart ment are to the effect that the Georgia returned to her practice grounds near Provincetown, Mass., at 10 o'clock last night. She wlli resume her target prac tice tomorrow. It is generally expected at the navy department that the hoard of examination will be made up of the commanders of the ships composing the second division of the battleship fleet and of the Louisiana, which was engaged with the other vessels at the time. In this event the board would consist of Captains Schroeder of the Virginia; Wainwright of the Louisiana; Kimball of the New Jersey; McCrea of the Georgia and Commander Bow man of the P.hode Island. There is a possibility however, that Capt. McCrea may prefer not to sit as a member of the board in view of the fact that the accident occurred on his ship. A brief report of the accident lias been sent to the President at Oyster Bay. It contained nothing that has not already appeared in the newspapers, lite department tints far having no knowledge its to the cause of the acci dent. The bodies of the dead will lie sent homo for burial at government ex panse where this is requested by their relatives or Miends, in ease the bodies are not claimed they will he interred in the naval cemetery at Boston. Tin* navigation bureau hits been in formed that the board of examination to inquire into the cause of the acci dent intended to begin its examination at in o'clock this morning. A dcspatcli received at the navy de partment tills afternoon from Admiral Snow commandant of the Boston navy yard gives the condition of the injured men at 9 A. M.. as follows: Midshipman Cross, worse; Ordi nary Seaman Meese, worse; Sea man Bush, critical; Seaman Fone, critical hut hopetul; Boatswains Mate Sohlapp, favorable; Chief Yeo man Tagland, critical but hopeful; Seaman Gilbert, critical; Ordinary Sea man James Patrick Thomas, critical; Seaman Bosenherger, fairly good; Or dinary Seaman Kieli, favorable; Gun ner's Mate, fust class. Hansel!, favor aide; Ordinary Seaman Malek, criti cal. Admiral Snow says that the com manding oliiccr of tlie Georgia could not explain the causes of the explosion. Acting See. Newberry today received a telegram of condolence from the offi cers and members of the Victorian Club of Boston, a British organization. Who deeply grieved by the terrible accident to the oflioors and men of the battleship Georgia, expressed tie ir pro found sympathy for the comrades and relatives of the dead. The despatch is signed by F. c. Desumichrast, presi dent. Acting Seer- tary Newberry this af ternoon received the following tele gram from President Booseveit in re sponse t i his telegram officially advis ing him of the accident; “I am greatly concerned over the accident. Keep me informed fully of particulars.” 'I lie following telegram lias been re ceived by the navy department from the Italian naval attache: ”'>n behalf or the Italian embassy ;md myself, I send through you to the navy, sincere sympathy and condolence for tlie disaster on board the battleship Georgia.” NO CARELESSNESS Or Lack of Precaution By Men—Be lieved to Have Caused Accident. Washington, July 16.—It is said at Iho navy department that it is ex tremely improbable that the accident aboard the battleship Georgia resulted from any carelessness or lack of pre caution on the part of the personnel of the ship. A short time ago a thorough Inspection was made of every detail of the Georgia's ordnance by Commander Schofield, one of the most expert of the ordnance officers of the navy. This in spection included every one of the guns, the details of the turret mechanism, the workings of the ammunition hoists, (which in the case of the superimposed turrets of the Georgia are rather more complicated than in the ordinary type) uni finally and most important the handling of the guns and mechanism »nd ammunition l,y the sailors. It was found that the ship's company was ■ery efficient at all points and it was certain that they were following close y the firing regulations in every es sential detail. It is pointed out that the bag enclos es the powder is made of thin serge ‘tuff, which is rather inflammable. In 'act it is necessary that it should he n order to be entirely consumed in the ’.ore of the gun after the charge is wed. otherwise bits of burning cloth night accidentally explode the next barge of powder introduced before the >reach of the gun could be closed. In •ase of ammunition used in battle, the tagging is frequently made of silk, vith a view to securing still greater trrngth and jK-rforth l.art of the coast and that the fishing is very poor. Several hun dred vessels of the iishing licet are in those* waters, but have had very little success. SPARKS FROM MAINE WIRES. nr. Henry W.

Many Inconvenienced By Conditions at Upper Crossing. Some weeks ago there came before the city government a request on the part of the Maine Central Railroad for the discontinuance of the lower section of Seavey street. This request was given some consideration at the time and a hearing was held upon the subject. The matter was left in the bauds of one of the regular committees of the city government and it was then supposed that a report would be forth coming. None has as yc t been made. There are two reasons why action favorable to the request should he tak en. In the first place, it will give to the Maine Central Railroad a much larger yard room than it now has and this is something which the Maine Cen tral must have if the freight traffic is to continue to increase as it has in flic last few years. It is doubtful even if railroad comnanv would have sufficient r*Mini in which In 5i:in■ 11 secure the right to use Mr. Wing’s invention, lias two plates in his possession on one of which are 114 and on the other 72 negatives.

Any attempt to exercise jurisdiction woulc be a usurpation of authority that does not exist, and was never intended ir the drafting of the national agreement There has been too much interference by th“ National Commission in Amer ican Association affairs, which has beer hurtful to its financial interests ant detrimental to its good." SOLD TO PIRATES. Philadelphia Nationals Sell Duggleb) to Pittsburg Team. Pittsburg. July 16.—William Dug gleby, a pitcher of the Philadelphia Nationals, wears a Pittsburg uni form today. Word came from Free Clarke to Pres. Dreyfus Monday after noon that a deal had been completed for Duggleby. Pres. Dreyfus refused to state on what terms Duggleby comes to the Pirates, but it is under stood that it is an outright sale. Kred Clarke lias been going over the dope on Pugglehy for some time pasl and lias discovered that about the only team in the National League that Dug gleby could not heat was Pittsburg This season he lias not bail much to do and Manager Clarke thinks that by working him in his regular turn lie will make good. DESSEAU FOR BOSTON. Star Twirler of P. O. M. League Sold to the Pilgrims for $2000. Pittsburg, Pa., July 16.—Manager Percy Setler of the Steubenville, O team of the Pennsylvania, Ohio and Maryland League, has sold the release of Pitcher Desseau to the Boston American Is?ague team. The price paid was $1:000. Desseau will not re port to Boston until after the close ot the present P. O. M. season, which will he about the middle of September Young Desseuu has been the sensa tion of the league this season. He is a right hander, of giant stature and said to have an assortment of benders that is seldom equaled. He is also good with the stick, and Is altogether a most promising youngster. Monday night, the time scheduled for a number of interesting tistic combats In the Armory on Court street, saw nearly 500 members of the Bangor sporting ele ment gathered before the door of the Court street arena waiting for Billy Dun ning to open the doors for his inucli-ad vertised boxing exhibition, but. Billy wasn't there and hasn’t been seen in town since Saturday. Neither were his young scrappers in evidence, so the go was called off. Everyone thought that when William shook tiie dust of the burg from his heels Saturday that he was com ing right bark and fix things up for an interesting exhibition, but tie must have missed connections somewiieie for he was nowhere to he found and even his closest friends didn't know just where he was. He may be back and arrange for the bout later hut there is nothing certain about that.—Bangor Commercial. Jim Donovan, who recently lost to Honey Mellody, says that Mellody is the hardest hitting man he ever met. and Jim has met some pretty stiff punchers. NATIONAL.

July 16.—The American tennis players at the Wimbledon courts today lost their ehance of chal lenging for the Davis cup, an interna tional trophy, by the narrowest of Mar gins. Beals C. Wright, American, succeed ed in winning his match against A. F. Wilding. Australasia, thus making the points equal, but Norman E. Brookes, Australasia, was too much for Karl H. Behr, American, who after the first set was clearly outplayed by his old competitor. BASEBALL NOTES. There is a rumor that Mike Donliti will soon be back with New York. Vicksburg has sold Outfielder Hop kins to the St. Louis Nationals for $1000. Brown, Lundgren and Overall have all reached their double mark in vic tories. Clytmr hit for .116 in 13 games with Washington; Delahanty for .347 in 27 games. Houlton, of the Aroostook. League, defeated Presque Isle Monday at Houlton. S to D. The New York Nationals hove se cured Third Baseman Sundhcini of the Calumet (Mich.) club. In .St. Louis Soybold sent a ball that hit a post on the fence and bounded back, thus spoiling a homer. Tile former great pitcher of the Bos ton Nationals. John Clarkson, and Mrs. Clarkson, are at the home of his fa ther in Winthrop. A home run by Files won the Aroos took League game at Caribou for the home team Monday, Fort Fairfield be ing defeated 6 to 5. The White Sox have gathered seven out of 10 games front Washington and the Athletics have done ag weH with the St. Louis Browns. Says Manager Joe Kelley: ThoBiitiic'is one of the fastest men in the fiajfd -aiid: on the bases that I have eve#‘eeSh, and he has an arm of steel. Hevte far and away the best player in tHfe Kastefn League today. If lie can Rfeep np h’fS hitting in faster company, as I think lie can, he will be a great star next season. Pittsburg, the Athletics and several other clubs were crazy to get him. but he will go to Boston. We could have realized a very large sum for Thoney, hut preferred to take play ers. as we are out after the champion ship of the Eastern League and will trust to the coin coming in at the gate if we can keep in the lead. BOXING NOTES. Jack Glancv, a welter-weight, has retired and Is engaged in the express business in California. Sam I.angford has been offered a match with Joe Jeanette, to take place in New York in private. Harry Faker, the California feather weight is still in Philadelphia and finds il hard to get any one to box him. Baker is one of the best little men that ever came out of the Golden state. Johnny Keid. well known as the man ager of Buddy Ryan, the Chicago wel terweight, who once beat Honey Mel Indy, has built an arena on an island in the Missouri river, where bouts are hold regularly every Sunday. Freddie Welsh, the little English boy who gave Matty Baldwin a good argu ment when they met in Philadelphia some time ago. has challenged Jack Ooldswain. who will meet him regard less of (he outcome of his battle with Harry Lewis. New Yorkers are booming Sailor Burke for a match with Joe Thomas, when there is hardly a chance of his meeting Thomas, for the present at any rate. Burke hardly classes with a few of the welterweights who are in line for matches on the coast. Jimmy Kelly, a lightweight who fought Jimmy Gardner and held him to a draw, is to return to the ring again, and has prospects of a match with Mike (Twin) Sullivan. Kelley has been out of the game for some time, but lias continued to train, and is re ported boxing in as good form as ever Monte Atteii, brother of Abe Attell the featherweight champion, intends to re-enter the ring again in the near future. Monte's last fight was with Owen Moran, the Englishman, who beat him in a 20-round fight. Abe says Monte's defeat was due to lack of con nitkin. You ve got to give it to the New Yoikers. says the St. Louis Globe Dem ocrat. They can make more excuses for a bad baseball team than an o|ieratic impressario must to explain the non appearance of a star with a sick lap dog. Out here in St. Louis we might tear out a leaf or two from the Book of Gotham, to the better feeling of our baseball players.

Haywood was begun with Lawrence Cuibbini, the San Franciscc grocer, again on the stand. He was re called at the request of the defence. He was ask.xl a few additional questions as to geographical locations in the neighborhood of the Bradley apart ment house. A. C. Cogswell of Wallace. Idaho, followed Guibbini. He was called fur ther to impeach Dr. I. L. McGee, a wit ness for the defence, who is under ar rest and who has been brought to Boise from Spokane. Wash., where he was arrested. Dr. McGee testified as to cer tain dates by fixing the date of a county Republican convention in Wal lace. Mr. Cogswell, who was perma nent chairman of the convention, gave different dates. The attorneys for the defence moved to strike out the evi dence as immaterial and when this motion was denied they declined to cross examine. While Cogswell was on the stand, the state offered in evidence a copy of the Wallace. Idaho, Tribune, identi fied as the official organ of the local unions of the Western Federation of Miners at that time. The paper con tained a three-column account of the blowing up of the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mine, which the state desired to place before the jury in answer to Atty. Harrow’s owning statement that the defence would show that the crowd which attacked the mill was an un organized mob. Judge Wood took the matter of the admission of the newspaper under nd visement, indicating that he probably would not admit it in view of the fact ti’.at the defence had introduced no evidence in support of the opening statement liy counsel for the defense. Kdward It. Alvord, a druggist of Burke, Idaho, testified that he did not see Harry Orchard about town during the time the mob had gone to Ward ner to blow up the Bunker Hill mine. He did see Orchard, however, when tlie train returned. A. r. Holman, a mine operator of Cripple Creek, who during the strike was in charge of the Golden Cycle mine, then told of some personal ex periences with the strike committee. He described the Vindicator mine ex plosion. Mr. Holman reached the sixth level where McCormick and Beck were killtd within 20 minutes after the ex plosion. Replying to questions _ Mr. Holman told of tlie origin of the Mine Owners’ Association. The various mines paid quarterly assessments. When the troops wore called the association bought tlie state's certificates of in debtedness, issued to cover the ex penses of military occupation of Crip ple Creek. L. G. Itatnsey, an assayer of Victor, Col., who was powder man in the V Indi cator In 1903. was called in further re huttal of the witness, wlio.se testimony was regarded as highly important as t.,11-* 4-1-*- It,— n,.n1nr,l/w. the Vindicator was an accident instead of the plot as outlined by Orchard. In contradiction of Wood. Ramsey de clared today that during tlie time he was in the mine he never saw a pistol in the possession of either Heck or McCormick All powder passed through his hands and every morning and evening lie inspected the mine to see that no powder was left about. Wood said McCormick and Reck had been on tiie eighth level just before go ing to the sixtli where the explosion oc curred. Ramsey contradicted this abso lutely. When Ramsey resumed the stand after the noon recess he said lie found some 40 per cent, powder, where Reck and McCormick were ldlled. The only powder regularly used in the mine was 35 per cent. Sheriff Routan of San Miguel county, Col., of which Teluride is the county seat, succeeded young Ramsey in the chair and told of a riot in the district which result ed in the calling out of the troops. The riot, lie declared, was led by Vincent St. John of the Western Federation of Min ers, and he recognized many of the men in the moli as members of the Federa tion. The witness also told of the murder of Arthur Collins, superintendent of the Smuggler Union Mine, as one of the Inci dents which led up to the declaration of martial law. "What other crimes led up to the call ing out of troops?*’ "Well, Wesley Smith and another man working In Smuggler Union Mine had dis appeared.” Sheriff Routnn tohl of a Mexican lying killed and of Janies Phillips being shot through the arm and beaten. Martial law was not declared for more than a month after the arrival of the militia. In the cross-examination of Sheriff Routnn, Atty. Richardson attempted to bring out who It was that combined to fight the Miners’ Union. Richardson ask ed a perfect hall of questions as to the character of various deputies on tile sher iff's payroll as to their being notorious gunmen. The question was ruled out on tlie ground of Immateriality. Court adjourned until tomorrow. SPARKS FROM MAINE WIRES. A largo crew is rapidly laying .the foundation for the new fire house at Houlton. This building, situated across the street from the postqffice, will bi»f«»nuit\ with tlie nar rowest of the market. Tne stoc i: market was confronted at the outset today with a slump in the price of copper warrants in Uondon and during the d; y there was a further reduction of *1 to "i cents a pound for all tirades of copper at th-* local metal ex hange.

Both the farmer and the baseball fan would be very grateful to the weather man if he would serve up clear skies for the next few weeks.

There is no knowing how all this English hospitality may have upset Murk Twain's health, but plainly he Is returning with his humor intact. “People in this country sleep too much,” announces a prominent scien tist. Not those whose neighbors pos sess liens or an ambition to run their lawn mower while the sun Is rising. White the Elks are in convention in Philadelphia this week the enterprising space writers of that city may be counted upon to send out many stories which it will be safe to class as nature takes. of course the pure food laws are used as an excuse for boosting up tlie prices >f various household necessities, but it it find not been for the pure food laws some other excuse would un doubtedly have been found. A Massachusetts town has a hello girl who is blind anti the papers have been giving her a writing up just as 1 hough site were something out of the «ii ilin^rv I .nt* 1 welcome variation of the question in this form, “Are you a IX»niocrat? if so, liow much ami whyV" This is even harder than the first one, but one good thing about it la that only Democrats are called upon to answer it. Again it Is announced that warfare Is to he waged against the tipping evil. It would be a simple matter Ind.1 to put an end to tills nuisance, which in many places amounts to downright extortion and wholesale robbery, if travellers would only stand together in refusing to give tips to porters, waiters and others who now look upon them as something which is their just due. That is a big "if," however, for rieh people who are perfectly willing to pay for extra service, great promptness, etc., set tlie pace in this matter and poorer people when they travel have to follow suit or have their wants wholly unattended to and meet with insults which are worse than the neglect. Not yet but soon—that is to say, af ter August 1—it will be all right to write upon the side of the postal card which lias hitherto borne the caution. •'This side for the address only.” The only restriction Is that only the left ha ml third of the front of the postal card may be so used, hut this will give women a welcome opportunity to write their |msts>-ripts for which there is no room left on the back of the cant. For years those sending postal cards from foreign countries to America have had the privilege of writing the message upon the front ns well as on the back of cards and sometime ago senders of souvenir cards in this country were granted that same privilege, and now, to remedy the inconsistency and pre vent further confusion and annoyance. Uncle Pam will allow senders of postal cards tills same privilege. But don't use more than the leftxhand third of the front of the rani fof the message. Preserve as before the right hand two thirds of the card for i4e address. N

Democracy and the Trusts. The Watervile Sentinel, in undertak ing to forecast the platform which will be adopted by the next Democratic national convention pays: “It will de clare a war of extermination on trusts.” Will it indeed? Let us ex amine for a moment the facts of his tory bea: irg upon this matter. The Republican party took up the question of trusts in 1SS8 and stated its position in this language: “We declare our opposition to all combinations of capital, organised in trusts or otherwise, to control arbi trarily the condition of trade among our citizens.” The Democratic party was then in control of the Con gress and had on January 25th of that year instructed the committee of com merce to investigate the general sub ject of trusts, and report with recom mendations. William I.. Wilson, Clif ford R. Rreckenridge and William D. Bynum were among the members of that committee. They ostensibly de voted much time anil thought to the subject, an l voluminous testimony was taken. From October 1888 to March 1889, they were given a clerk at $0 per day to assist them in their delibera tions. And what was the result of it all? After more than a year of alleged investigation the committee made a re port on the printed testimony taken, which closed as follows: “Your committee further repoit that owing to the present differences of opinion between the members of the committee they limit this report to submitting to the careful consideration of subsequent Congresses’ the facts shown before the committee.” This was the way the Democratic party in its time of power and re sponsibility dodged the trust issue. Instead of courageously meeting the question it turned it over to the suc ceeding Congress, which had already been elected, at the same time with President Harrison, and with a Republi can majority, and which it therefore knew could be depended upon to deal with tills question fearlessly and intel ligently. The only bill this Demo cratic committee ever reported to a Democratic Congress was one for $11, 968 to defray the expenses of its in vestigations. So much for the Democratic record on the trust question. They dodged the issue by turning it over to their Republican successors. When that Re publican Congress assembled the fol lowing year, it met this question with characteristic promptness and square ness. An act was introduced by lion. John Sherman of Ohio, entitled “An ac t to protect trade and commerce against unlawful restraints and monopolies.” This was passed by a Republican House and Senate and signed by Preisdent Harrison on July 2, 1S90. It was a good measure, but in attempt ing to enforce it, the supreme court held that, under the provisions of the constitution it did not and eould not control manufacture and production ex cept as they entered into and became a part of interstate commerce. To remedy this, and Rive Congress power to fully reach the trust evil, the Re publicans of tile House judiciary com mittee, following out the suggestions of President McKinley’s message, pre sented the following proposed amend ments to tlie Constitution. ARTICL.K XVI. Section 1. All powers conferred by tliis article shall extend to the several states and territories, the District of Columbia, and all territory under the sovereigntj, anil subject to the juris prudence of tlie United States. Section 2. Congress shall have power to deflm, regulate, prohibit or dissolve trusts, monopolies or combinations, whether existing in the form of a cor porati in or otherwise. The several states may continue to exercise such power in a manner not to contllet with tiic laws of the ,Unit**d Suites. Section 3. Congress shall have power to enforce the’provisions of this article by appropriate legislation. It would certainly seem that language could not well have been clearer or more explicit. This pro posed constitutional amendment came up in the House of Representatives June 1, Ison. A two-tliirds vote was necessary to insure its submission to the American people, in whose good sense the Democratic patty has always professed such a profound faith. The roll-call of the House re sulted in ir>4 yeas. 132 nays. Of those, who voted yes, 150—all Init four—wen Republicans. Of those who Vijted nf^ 124 were Democrats and five were 1'opulists. In a speech at the trust conference in Chicago. Sept. 16, 1889, Mr. llryan declared that he was cordially “in fa vor of an amendment to the constitu tion that would give to Congress the power to destroy every trust in the country." And yet months afterward, when just such an amendment was be fore the National House of Represent atives, only four Democrats could lie found in that body to vote in favor of submitting it to the people of this country, in whose good judgment Mr. Bryan and his followers profess to have such an abiding faith. In view of this record, how empty are the high sounding phrases with which Democratic writers and speakers have endeavored to make the public believe that if their organization were in power it would endeavor to suppress tne trust evil. How far-fetched is the claim of tlie Sentinel tliat the party with this record will, at its next na tional convention “declare a war of ex termination on trusts." The Tragedy on the Georgia. That terrible explosion upon the battleship Georgia by which a score of men were killed or badly injured proves again the ever-present perils upon those monster floating forts, perils which peace knows as well as the time of war. There has been a grim series-of such tragedies in our navy in recent years, probably no worse than in other navies of the world, but of course coming more prominently to our attention and closer home to our hearts. Usually they have seemed to be strokes of fate beyond all possibility of human pre vention. No doubt the men after a time get indifferent to the constant danger of handling high explosives, but it cannot be said that carelessness was the cause of this latest disaster. Perhaps is was a structural weakness which made it possible for a spark from the smokestacks to get into the turret and there ignite the powder bags, but it would seem impossible to construct a turret so as to exclude fly ing sparks and cinders. The price of naval power is an appalling one to pay when it involves such a sacrifice of life as this, an incident of target practice on a peaceful summer day costing more precious lives than our navy lost in the war with Spain. The record of such mishaps is a long and sad one, and no experience or warning seems sufficient to prevent recurrence of such awful events. The interest in this latest tragedy is much greater here in Maine from the fact that tile Georgia is a Ilath-l>uilt battleship and well known in our waters, hut though the 20 victims of the disaster hailed from no fewer than 10 states none of them appear to have been Maine boys. Free Trade Fallacy as Applied to the Canadian Market. Now that market-by-population swap theory. The Journal's theory apparently is that the agreement for free trade between the United States and Canada would give to our side only the market of live millions while it gave to the Canadian side the market of eighty odd millions. That is, Canada would get about seventeen times the best end of the bargain. That looks pretty bad for us. Hut let’s do some more of that figuring. Apply it to Maine. Maine opens her 700,000 population market to Canada; Canada opens her 5.000,000 market to Maine; so Maine gets more than seven times the best end of the bargain with Can ada.—Lewiston Sun. It is the misfortune of the free trader that he ran never grasp the fact of na tional prosperity, or recognize the fact that what builds up the prosperity of one part of the country contributes to the prosperity of all parts of the coun try. Tlie State of Maine has today free access for her products to a mar ket of 8U.OfiO.OOil people. In that market she is protected against the competi tion of Canada, whose products, both agricultural and manufactured, direct ly duplicate Iter products, and, if ad mitted free to the I’nited States, would directly compete with them in the great home market—the finest in the world. Just consider for a mo ment tlie rank and transparent fallacy "f the Sun's argument when it says: Maine opens her 700,000 market to Canada; Canada opens her 0,000.000 market to Maine; so Maine gets more than seven times the best of the bar gain witli Canada." In other words, Maine would get the whole of the Canadian market, while Canada would only get the Maine end of the American market. What a truly beautiful theory! Hut alas! the facts of the situation do not bear it out. The things, both agricultural and manufactured, which are produced in Canada are also produced in this State. Consequently the people of Can ada would have little occasion to buy trie products of Maim1, inasmuch as they are producing those same things cheaper at home. What they desire is not the trade of Maine, lint the splendid home market which Maine now has for her products, without being obliged to compete in it with tlie similar products of Canada. The farmers, the manufacturers and tlie wage-earners of our State all recog nize the fact that it will he a body blow at their prosperity when they are forced to compete in their own home market--tlie best in the world—with the duplicating products of Canada. “Old-Fashioned Folly.” The Washington Post which has been quoted with approval of late by a number of our Democratic contem poraries, and which is one of the ablest papers in the country that inclines to Democratic policies, pays its respects to Charles E. Allen, under the caption, “Old-Fashioned Folly." It says: One of Maine's most popular local statesmen. Col. Charles E. Allen, known as the "Sage of Cedar Grove,” asks in a letter to the Eastern Argus, a venerable Democratic paper, whose habitat is Portland: "Why should not Democratic papers fearlessly advocate a tariff for revenue only, without even a hint at any sort of protection, as it is falsely called—'incidental' or other?” Well, Isn't that what most of them are doing? Does not the latest Democratic platform, the "safe and sane," boldly proclaim “protection is robbery?" To be sure, that malediction is followed by a considerable display of more or less ingenuous hedging, but the men who made the tariff plank in that platform put their sincere belief into that declaration. They did not name any particular brand of protection, hut launched their condemnation at protec tion per so, the entire policy of protec tion. tiiat which originated in the First Congress, as well at that which is in the present tariff. All candid men will admit that in some of the schedules of the tariff as it stands there are gross abuses that bear close resemblance to robbery. All candid men ought to admit that if the United States had in this republic’s infancy adopted free trade and adhered to it, we should have had a very slow development of manufacturing industries. There are millions of our people still living who remember when we imported railroad iron from Kngland. Less than ttventy years ago we imported our tin plate from Wales, hut under the McKinley tariff and also under the fiery de nunciation of the free traders we built up a great tin plate industry in this country. The history of our silk industry is similar to that of tin plate, a great triumph f protection. And the history of the Democratic party is an eloquent protest against advocating free trade or a tariff for revenue only.” We earnestly commend the forego ing to the editor of the Lewiston Sun, which has recently quoted the Post with approval, and which has vocifer ously challenged anyone to name an American industry that has been benefit ted by protection. The Record of Resubmission. The founders of our government made it an extremely difficult matter to change the organic law of the Republic./ Their example was deemed so wise in this respect that it has been followed by the various states as they have adopted constitutions following their admission into the union. In our own State a two thirds vote of both branches of the legislature is necessary to submit any constitutional question to popular vote. It was evident that the able and patriotic men who laid broad and deep the foundations of our civic life did not intend that the organic law of our State should ever been changed except in response to a very general demand of its citizens. This was obviously the view taken hy tile peoples’ representatives in the last legislature for, in passing a law establishing the initiative and referendum it was expressly limited, in its application, to the statutes. Under the circumstances there seems to be the best of reasons why the 5th amend ment to our constitution “forever prohibiting the manufacture of in toxicating liquors, and prohibiting their sale except for medicinal and mechanical purposes and the aits,’’ should be re-submitted only in response to the demand of an un questioned majority of the Sovereign people of Maine. That amendment was incorporated into the constitution by an overwhelming vote of the citizens of our State, and unless an unmistakable majority of them desire it, there is no good reason why it should be passed upon again. There can be no doubt but what when the advocates of resubmission can go before a legislature of Maine and show by petitions in favor of such action front the people of the State that a majority of them desire resuhmission, it will be granted—as it should be under such circumstances. We do not think, however, that even the Water ville Sentinel—with all its longing for license—will seriously claim that any thing approaching such a showing has ever yet been made before a legislature of this State. Certainly the case it made out before the Temperance committee last 'Winter was pitiful in its weakness. From every part of Maine remonstrances against resub mission signed by the mem bers of both political parties, poured in upon the committee. It is doubtful if a more genera! or more emphatic ex pression of tile popular will was ever before registered with a Maine legisla ture. In the face of all this petitions in favor of n submission were not in evidence. Many of the men who had been most vociferous in urging it, lacked the courage to appear in its advocacy before the committee. Even the silver-tongued Editor of the Sentinel was conspicuous hy his absence. The cause of resubmission fell tint “with a dull sickening thud.” Doubtless the Sentinel wishes it had been otherwise; hut it must admit that these are, from its point of view, the melancholy facts of history. We believe in local option, not as a license measure but as a temperance and a prohibition measure, for we be lieve that a larger area of actual en forced prohibition is possible under local option than under any other law designed to control the liquor traffic._ Watervllle Sentinel. Hut local option has been demon strated to be a failure as "a temper ance and a prohibition measure.” It makes little difference that one town votes “no license" if the adjourning town votes “license.” Not many weeks ago the writer" was in a Connecticut town and saw more men under the influence of liquor during a short ride through the village than he would see in a Maine com munity in a week. He was very much surprised when a local clergyman told him that the town in question had for many years voted “no license.” He added that it was of little practical use, however, since the adjoining town voted license and anyone who desired liquor had only to cross a short bridge to be in touch with a number of open saloons.

A young son of well known Castle Hill parentage bears a combination of historical names. Millard Fillmore’s son married Andrew Jackson's daugh ter and their first offspring was named Andrew Jackson Millard Fillmore. Damariscotta is not pleased to have the story go the rounds of the papers that the old time ship Wiscas set was built in Wiscasset. The Her ald complains thus: “How often must wc say that the Wiscasset was built in Damariscotta? The ship Wiscasset of 407 tons, was built by Stetson and Hitchcock in 1S32 on land now owned by Unfits Hitchcock, just above the shell heaps.” The greatest freak of the lightning in the storm of Sunday, July 7, in Han cock county is reported from West P.rooksville, where onions, which were in a hag, were neatly peeled. Such ao commodating lightning as this would lie more welcome than the usual variety. “The incident suggests,” says the Klls worth American, “the possibilities of that future day when man has suc ceeded in taming lightning to his own uses. Then we may expect to find each well-appointed heme equipped with his own lightning apparatus, which would not only furnish light and heat, but would peel the onions and potatoes, sweep the floors, make the beds, wash the dishes, hunt buffalo bugs, kill the flies; in fact, do till the drudgery of housework, including the semi-annual housecleaning. And the servant girl problem would at last be solved.” That Rowdoinhnm people are long lived is proved by one family in town where five generations of the Stockman family still live, all of them in the best of health.

Souadahsconk was one of the first tribes in this part of the country, and certainly the first in Maine, to equip itself with orginal costumes, and now they have a team that for vivid ness of hahilment must rival the hands of warlike savages of the days of Champlain.

It covers fully the requirements of the Syllabus in English issued by the New York State Department of Education.

Dr. Maxwell’s repu tation as one of the foremost educators of the country is well sustained by this, his latest production. Keffcr's Nature Studies on the Farm, by Charles A.

Tho OKI Home- House, by Joseph C. Lincoln. Cloth; illustrated; pp. 291. Price ?1.20. Ne-.v York: A. S. Barnes Company, 11 -1 r» Kast 24th street. The eleven short stories that make up this volume come to us laden with the salt breezes of the New England coast. Tlie author whose ‘‘Cape Cod Ballads." “Cap'n Kri," and numerous short stories contributed to various magazines have made him well known to the reading public, has been peculiarly successful in catching and portraying the life and character of the New England life along tho coast, where the seafaring life is always in evidence. Moreover his pages are al ways enlivened not merely by the vividness of his coloring, hut also by the rich vein of humor that permeates them, a humor that is all the more en joyable from the fact that it is never overdrawn, and never fails to impress the reader with its fidelity to lift'. He would lie callous indeed who would fail to enjoy a good laugh at the ex perience of Capt Jonadah Wixon and Bazilla Wingate, in their attendance upon the "swell" wedding of “rich old Dillaway’s daughter.” The book will make enjoyable reading at all times and places. It is a sure cure for the blues. Pome Cities of Pan Francisco and Resurgan. by Herbert Howe Bancroft. Cloth, gilt top, heckle edges. New York: The Bancroft Co., lf.fi r.th Avo. In this book we have a very inter esting discussion of the origin of towns and cities and the manner of their growth. Rome interesting facts are given with reference to San Francisco and the new city that is rising from its ashes, and the fact Is very plainly brought out that, great as was the calamity that befell it, the new city will be noblr r, more substantial ami more enduring than the old, and that actual progress has hardly been ar rested. “We are,” says the author, “rudely hustled and waked to higher and severer effort. No house or store or factory or business will he rebuilt or established except in a larger and more efficient way, and that Is pro gress." The Story of Teddy. A book for children by Helen Van-Anderson. I'loth pp. 121. Price 75 cents. Ne,v York: The C. E. Ellis Co., 22 North William St. In the experiences of Teddy, the author has given us a delightfully interesting and entertaining book for children. It is one that will be sure to win their favor and approval and also is well calculated to inculcate in them a love of truth and sincerity. It is an altogether charming story by one who understands child nature and knows how to stimulate and bring out what is truest and best in them. Priscilla of the Dolt Shop* by Rhodes. Cloth; pp. 284.

Dogs have made great havoc among the sheep here this season. Nearly every flock has suffered heavily and a flock of 20 was practically wiped out only one escaping uninjured. There are many pastures growing up to hushes the farmers would gladly stock with sheep if the dogs would let them alone. Sheep-keeping would be a great benefit to our rural towns. It would improve our pastures, increase? our taxable property, and greatly benefit the owners. A law that would effectually protect sheep by putting an c nd to dogs or keeping them at home, under control, would be of inestimable value. A. J.

Boston: Houghton, Mifflin Co. In •'Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm” Mrs. Wiggin has given us a most de lightful character, whom Thomas ltailey Aldrich has pronounced "the nicest child in American literature.” She Is certainly very unaffected, very genuine, very much alive, and withal very lovable.

Chicago: Tlie Old Greek Press. The author of this book, in the preface, is described as a business man who has undertaken to write conven tional liction. from tlie standpoint of the truth as lie lias seen it in his own life and experience.

The story tells of the infatuation of six different men with one beautiful woman, and Go spell exercised over each in turn, in time all recover their sanity, but not until tlie narrative has taken us j through a let of stirring scenes and incidents.

Cloth; pp. .'til. Philadelphia: The Sunday School Times Company. In this volume we have a collection of twelve of l>r. Watson's famous short stories. No man of modern times has so well understood and so vividly and sympathetically portrayed the Scotch lile and character, and anything from his pen will never fail to find an abid ing place in the hearts of the reading public. As. Mr. Connor well says in ids introduction the writings of “Ian Maciaren” are characterized by pawky humor, kindly searching satire, and shrewd analysis of the theological, logic-chopping conscience-ridden “ter rible Scot,” whom Dr. Watson knew and loved, as few other great Scotch men have known and loved him. In this charming volume are gathered such tender and touching stories as “A Local Inquisition,” “A Soldier of the Lord," “An Irregular Christian,” “A Domestic Difference,” “A Kuler in Israel," “The Power of the Child," “Her Marriage Day" and several oth ers. The book is one that should be in every home, for it is worthy to be numbered among the classics. Dutton's Little Stories of Crri Dy Maude Harrows initton.

FOR MOTHERS Greatest Care Needed in Selecting Right Food for Baby. Every mother should rnnsult her physician bpfore deciding what food to use for her little one. More sickness is caused by the injudicious use of condensed milk imd ordinary cow s milk than from all other causes. Among the half dozen foods that physicians recommend, no oiie is more highly esteemed than Justfood, as when prepared in accordance with the simple directions for use. it is physi cally the same as mother's milk, con taining hone and tooth-forming material that obviates all fear of soft teeth or rickets, and as it is very de licate and easily absorbed the baby holds It down and thus gains all the food nourishment. It is the most economical of all ar tificial foods for the baby, costing 50c., $1 00 or J 1.5(1 according to the size of the package. Sold by druggists. When the largest package is bought, a meal for the little baby costs less than a penny. Liberal sample of Justfood will be sent free to any mother. Justfood Co., 4$ N. Franklin St., Syracuse, N.

Gilman Will Spend Month in Montana. STATE HOUSE CALENRAD. Next Meeting of Gevernor and Council, Tuesday, Aug. 13, at 10 A. M. Prof. E. F. Hitchings, State en tomologist. was at the department of agriculture Tuesday on business con nected with the bureau of entomology, of which he is in charge. In speaking of the field work which is being done under direction of the department he said that the men were doing their work very thoroughly and that the results secured were very satisfactory'. flic work at present consists of turning the burlai> mi the trees and collecting the different entomological specimens which are found there, and also keep ing a sharp lookout for caterpillars which may have hatched from some egg cluster of the gipsy moth which had escaped their eyes in the search for the egg clusters early in the sea son. The presence of the caterpillars is detected by the stripped appearance of the foliage where a colony is feeding, and the nv n are constantly on the lookout for this sign. A large, in festation was discovered in this wav last week at Cape Neddick in the town til York, on what is known as the Thompson place, the infestation b* ing discovered by Capt. Spinney. It is expected that some of the bushes in tin.* neighborhood will have to be cut and burned and that some spraying will also have to be done. Th»- burlap bands which have been placed around the trees in the infested districts, said Prof. Hitching.-, not only serve the purpose for which they arc Intended, that of catching the caterpil lars of the gipsy moth, but also catch many other specimens, all of which are saved by the men who are doing the work. Among the latest representa tive of the insect world to tlnd its way into the friendly fold of the burlap is the apple tree borer, one of the woist pests with which the farmer lias to contend in his orchard, and the linding of some of these in the burlaps has perhaps evolved a in* ans of protecting the trees. The apple tree borer works around the trunk of the tree close to the ground and it is thought that per ha"s the placing of the burlap around the tree not far from the ground will bring good results. Another matter on which I tor Iiitcliings is at work is the arrange ment of a number of sets of specimens, for use at the coming fairs in the edu cates! line. They will be shown at the Wtsite fairs and also at some n! the larger county fairs and v ill do nii'. l, toward familiari/.ing A he people .In state with the dill* rent insect pests, how they look and how they grow.

Unless counsel for Mayor McClellan makes further appeal, this decision seems to leave the way clear to begin the recount for which W. R. Hearst contends. BARTELS RECAPTURED.

Thousands of men awl women are anxiously looking forward to tin- vara tion days that conn- in Juno, July and August—not so much for the pleasure or enjt^yment as for the chance of get ting rtd of their ill health. To thoroughly drive away troubles of the stomach most people think they have to make a business of it with dieting, exercise, and perhaps a vaca tion. I’.ut Mi-o-na stomach tablets taken with regularity, in a very few days will drive away Indigestion, dizzy spells, distress after eating, headaches, sleeplessness, and the many other symptoms of bad digestion and slug gishness of the digestive organs that keep people from enjoying themselves. Day after day. at work behind desks or in the factory with poor sunlight and air. soon results in sluggishness of the entire physical and mental appara tus. The first slight symptoms of in digestion can be easily cured, but when they arc allowed to increase without any help, then the stomach complaints become hard to shake off. Strengthen the whole digestive sys tem with Mi-o-na and you will soon find that both stomach and bowels do their work as they should. Bowditch, Webster Co. of Augusta, and Geo. W. Dorr of Waterville sell Mi-o-na in 50-rent boxes and guarantee to refund the money if the remedy dues not give complete sat isfaction. Waterville Note*. The little Mi-o-na tablets sold by Geo. W. Dorr, the druggist, have be come deservedly popular. Mr. Don guarantees that Ml-o-na will make thin people fat, regulate digestion, and Increase health, or else there will bo no charge for the remedy, and the pur chase price will be returned on de mand. Bad sick headaches, biliousness or constipation are quickly relieved by DeWitt’s Little Karly Risers. Small pill, sure pill, safe pill—prompt and pleasant in action.

Alphonso F. McCury Com mits Suicide by Hanging. Body Found in Cellar at Court Street Home, Tuesday. Rash Act Supposed to Have Been Due to Despondency. Augusta people wore shocked Tues day forenoon on learning that Alphon se F. McCurdy had taken his life by hanging himself in the cellar at his home at 27 Court street. Just when the act was committed is not known, but as Mr. McCurdy was seen at 5.45 Monday morning the time of his death is fixed at some time between that hour and the hour of discovery of his body, which was about 11 o’clock yesterday forenoon. The discovery was made by Oflieer Lawrence Colgan who in company with City Marshal Fletcher had gone to the house at the request of William Boyn ton of Hotel North. Mr. McCurdy had for some two months past been em ployed at the hotel in the capacity of porter, but had not been there since Sunday noon. He had in possession some of the keys of the hotel, and City Marsiiai Fletelier and Oflieer Colgan went to the house, for the purpose of getting the keys. (m their arrival they found the doors locked and all the windows securely fastened, and no one at home. Extra precautions seemed to have been taken to fasten the doors and windows, and tile otlicers were only able to effect an entrance by taking out a cellar win dow. By tliis means Officer Colgan lowered himself into the coal bin and as soon as his eyes had become ac customed to the darkness discovered tin body hanging just outside the bin. Coroner H. W. Plummer was sum moned by telephone and soon arrived, but on viewing the remains the case was so plainly one of suicide that no inquest was deemed necessary. The unfortunate man had accomplished his purpose by fastening a piece of clothes line to a beam overhead and after ty ing the other end about his neck had kicked over a chair on which he stood, death ensuing from strangulation. Af ter the coroner had view the remains they were removed to the undertaking rooms of tin* H. W. Plummer Co. on Bridge street where they now are. Mrs. McCurly was away at the time, having gone down river Saturday, and of the four little girls who. completed the family circle two were said to be at Woolwich and the other two at the house of a friend in this city. Funeral arrangements will be announced later. Mr. McCurdy was about 40 years of age and enjoyed the friendship of a host of acquaintances. When a young man he was employed for a long time at the Cony House in the capacity of porter, waiter, and also doing other work about the house. At the time that the Augusta, Hallowcll Gardi ner Railroad was built in 1800 he en tered the employ of tile company and during the winter before the cars were place.] on the route drove one of the busses between tills city and Gardiner, afterward going on to the cars. For the past 12 years and until about two months ago he had been employed as waiter in the Weever dining room, and at the time of his death was porter at Hotel North. He was a member of Augusta Lodge, A. O. U. W. Mr. McCurdy was a man liked by all who knew him, and they were many, as his long experience in hotels brought him in touch with the travel ling public in general. Possessed of a genial disposition, kind hearted, and always obliging and courteous In the discharge of his duties, he could but win friends, an-1 many are they who will feel sincere regret that he should go as he did before his allotted time. Tired Mothers. It's hard work to take care of children and to cook, sweep, wash, sew and mend besides.
