THE FIRE RECORD Eighteen Dead and 15 Seriously ln= jured In New York’s Latest Tenement House Blaze. BAD ONE AT LONG BEACH, L. I. Eight Hundred Guests Flee from Blazing Hotel==No Lives Lost==Loss In Coney Island Fire Heavy. Nov.- York, July 20.—Eighteen are (lea l and at len.st 15 are seriously in jured as the result of a fire early to day in a tenement house on Christie street. All of the occupants of the house were Italians. There is no clue to the origin of the fire. It was at first reported that the fire tjgis probably the result of a bomb oXVdoding ill .1 grocery store itt the basement of the building but the police after a careful investigation stated that tlieije was no evidence to sustain this theory or to show that the fire was of incendiary origin. The fire shot up the stairways, cut ting off all escape from those in the bedrooms above. Many rushed to Ihe fire escapes, which became clogged with frightened tenants. The house was filled with dense smoke and tin' flames rushing upstairs drove the half crazed people toward the roof. The flames killed many as they were about to be rescued from the roof white others were overcome by smoke. There were many heroic rescues by firemen. Tito bodies- of the dead were found in afci martfier of plan s. Knur women wete discovered in a closet where they htnj.'ruslied to hide from the tlanus. which .fotfful them out. The body of a wnrnatt.jtas .found lying over a child as though" fffie had tried to protect it from the flnmfcS. Five bodies were crowded arnunfpKho doorway on tile top floor. showjjPthat they Itad been struck down while trying to escape. Only five of the victims had been identified up to an early hour today. They were Marlite Oi Doiiee. his wile. Amelia, and their two infant ehildr. n. and l-'rank Shields, abed-ridden cripple, who was carried nut alive by the fire men but who succumbed I" his injuries soon after the rescue. The burin-1 building wa one of those old-fashioned tenements common to tin Mist side, with a store on tin* ground floor and the apartments up stairs crowded with tenants, mainly Italians. The lire spirted in the store nud swept through the building with such rapidity that a fifth of the 1 tenants in the place net a horrible death. Another score, though they es caped with tlielr lives, were more or less burned or otherwise injured. LOSS ABOUT $200,000. Big Seashore Hotel At Long Beach, L. I., Is Burned. Ls.nc llcach. T, I.. July 29.—Eight hundred guests of the Long I leach ho tel, one of the largest seashore hote ls on the Atlantic coast, had to flee for their lives early today when the hotel was burned to tin* sands. There was no loss of life and so far as can he learned no one was injured. Tito guests lost almost all their clothing and personal effects. The fire was discovered on the first floot;, son after r. o’clock today. Hall hoys and clerks hurried through the smoky corridors and roused the sloping guests. The flames gathered riuick headway in the great wooden structure and the guests had barely time to seize some scanty clothing and escape. They fled to the beaches and were taken care of by the cottagers. The hotel burned like tinder and soon was a smouldering mass of ruins. The loss is about $200.00(1. The hotel was three stories high and nearly fiOO _. 1 _ fet iii length :iml could house 11 flfl per sons. Sparks fn in the lire set ablaze fout cottages. Tile cottagers saved some of their furniture and clothing, (inly a few of the hotel guests snv\* the lash and the bullet, by cruelty and by murder.” These words were spoken by 1.0I'd Monkswell. who raised the Congo ques tion in the House of Thirds today and moved for the papers. The attendance in the House was slight. Continuing, laird Monkswell said the f Congo government was a powerful en gine of greed, which impudently and 1 insolently violated the limitations and restrictions under which its rights over this territory had been granted. The speaker quoted authorities to support his statements and added that a special responsibility attached to lirpnt Ilritain because except for her ili i. rniin.il ac tion, the King of Portugal and not the King of the Itelgians, would at this moment have been the ruler of the i Congo. The archbishop of Canterbury de clared that the Congo was one of the most disheartening and humiliating of contemporary questions. He said it was a ghastly irony to read today the words of address presented to King I.enpold by the city of Condon in 1SX4, congratulating Ilis Majesty upon his "bloodless victory." He declare!! tli" lbilish government should be remind ed "f the si use of responsibility of all Englishmen in tlii^s matter.

COMMENTS FROM LONDON.
i Newspapers In British Capital Ex press Their Views. I/mdon, July 29.—Commenting on tile result of the trial of William 1). Haywood at Poise, Idaho, the Chronicle today says: “The state of society revealed by the trial is more terrible than any civil War, because it is more treacherous and Is likely to lie more lasting. From beginning to end it reveals a condition of brutal rapacity, confronted '.with savage, despairing violence, n condition that, gives America’s boasted civiliza tion a very dubious look.” The Daily News says: “From the outset the question ha3 been eompli rated liy the fierce prejudices of a kind of smouldering class war. The whole movement, both in the revelations of the trial atul its accompaniments in public excitement, has illustrated the insecurity of authority in America and the profound scepticism concerning tne identity of law and justice.” Both editorials refer to President Roosevelt's “undesirable citizens” state ment. The News calls it one. of itis fr> quent newspaper indiscretions and the Chronicle predicts that it will cost him dear.

Russia and Japan will mutually guarantee the rights and territory. Jt was learned today that Foreign Minister Iswolsky's desire to settle pending questions in the Far East and inaugurate a new policy lor the peace ful colonization and development in the Russian provinces bordering on the Pacific was met in a spirit of modera tion and conciliation on the part of npan, which enables satisfactory prog ress to be made and assured a suc cessful outcome.

Meerschaum, so highly prized by pipe manufacturers, and which has heretofore come from Turkey, In Asia Minor, has recently been found in New' Mexico, nnd Its extreme scarcity will, from present indications, soon be at an end. The new mines are in the Diablo range of mountains. about twenty miles northwest of Pinos Alter, to which a branch of the Santa Fe rail road runs from Demlng.

July 29.—The case f An thony Brown, who overbet himself in the ring at Brighton Beach to the tert of $20,WO. the wagers being re~ corded in the name of his emplo: Hugh Collins, followed only in ,]a, behind a similar rase, in which Kit Dreyfuss lost nearly $30,000, wagering in the name of Dr. Charles F. Mac Donald, for whom he anted at'various local tracks, has set the layers of odds wondering just what kttwl of a rhanee they will have in case some irrespon sible commissioner goes, the limit without authorization. The Dreyfuss wagers remain unpaid, but in his case, no layer was stung for more than $1000. The same is true of Brown's l»ets, but these will be paid, as Chains acy1 knowledges responsibility nnd tjeclurejij*.? that be will make the losses good if he id breaks himself in doing so.

What de sire'!, therefore, is a method by wh' the commissioners who bet for wefitf^ visitors at the track are absolutely liable, but it is evident that in-' the cas°s of Dreyfus3 and Brown ehanect were taken tliat turned out wrong, leaving detection inevitable. •‘The onlv rqpl solution of the piufr-| lem,” said a prominent layer.” is to do all business in cash, doing away entire- ly with markers. Otherwise there is al ways the risk that commissioners are betting on their own hook. There is no good reason why cash should not be employ;*!

Navy Will Enter At Least One Crew At Poughkeepsie In 1908. Annapolis, Md„ July 29.—The Navy will ontor at least one crew in the in tercollegiate boat races at Poughkeep sie next year. It is also probable that a four-oared crew will be entered. A third crew, a plebe eight, may be a third entry for the Middies. This crew, if entered, will compete with the Freshman crews of the other colleges. The Naval Academy rowing authorities are fairly well satisfied with the show ing made by the Senior eight this year, find it is understood unofficially th.it the navy department was also satisfied and will look with favor on its com peting again. The rowing department of the Navy Athletic Association is more than sat isfied with Glendon as a coach. He will be in charge of the crews next year, and will be at the academy during the late summer and early fall for the pur pose of developing any promising row ing material there may be in the plebe (lass which entered the academy in June. The Senior eight will lose only one man by graduation—Pritchard of 1907. RACING TODAY. Grand Circuit Cavalcade Is At Cleve land, Ohio, This Week.

Daily Kennebec Journal I ESTABLISHED 1825 No notice whatever will be taken of unsigned communications. The Journal cannot be held responsible for the preservation or return of re jected communications. Address all communications relating to subscriptions and advertisements to BURLEIGH FLYNT, Publishers, Augusta, Maine. Tuesday, July 30, 1907. A Cincinnati dispatch declares that the Foraker boom has fallen flat. We never knew it had risen. 1 A Washington preacher declares that "hell is In the sun.” This used to be averred of ministers’ sons, but statistics have proved it to be a base slander. Several million of Uncle Sam’s nephews and nieces are grateful for the promise that his postal cards will lie less like pieces of blotting paper in the future. An elephant Is reported to have eaten in hills belonging to a bridal couple. If they had bought a few peanuts for him it would have been a good investment. The report is gaining circulation that life insurance companies contemplate an advance of rates to people using automobiles.—Springfield Republican. What about the rates for the other people who use the highways fre quented by automobiles? Tiicr man who recently called at Oyster May and declared himself to be the devil was a "reckless falsifier.” He was merely a poor imitation of him. Still, the authorities there con- ducted him to a place that bore a fair Imitation of his alleged home. c “Kisses are as much of a necessity I ns desserts,” declared Rev. XV. A. c Quayic, at a big Methodist camp- c; meeting at Des Plaines, Illinois. “I 1 would,” he added, "throw away a bis- t cuit any time for a kiss.” The t chances are. however, that he is eat- i ing biscuits. r The Russians are reported to be building more warships in the Baltic yards, but it must lie remembered flint the government was a trjfle shy in this 1 respect at the close of its war with c Japan and it is safe to assume that they are not intended for service in eastern waters. c r t Hi rr Jiebel, the loader of the Ger man socialists who has just inherited a fortune of HOO.OOO marks, absolutely refuses to divide more than one-third of it with his followers, and yet in do ing even tliis much he has broken all previous records. Men who preach socialism rarely practice it in case prosperity conies their way. Mr. II. H. Uurrill, special agent of the department of commerce and labor, has arrived home after a year spent in exhaustive study of trade conditions from the American point of view in Australasia. He reports that our trade in that section of the world Is exceedingly popular and rapidly growing, and that with better shipping facilities it can be built up to much larger proportions. Our apple trade in particular, lie reports to be growing very rapidly there and to be still in its Infancy. We also have a large and growing trade in machinery, boots and shoes, and in fact almost every kind of American manufactured goods. It is not wholly in “ways that are dark and tricks that are vain” that “tile heathen Chinee is iieculiar," as related by Itret Harte. The story conies from Washington of a Chinaman who was long a suecessful business nian in that city. At length he met reverses and failed, owing about $1,000 more than he could pay. lie went* hook to China 10 years ago, and re cently died. He fore his death busi ness had improved with him, and he died with money enough to pay all debts. He left with his relatives a memorandum of the names of those he owed, and tHe amounts, and they promptly sent the money for distribu tion among the creditors in America. Would tile average American, doing business in China or anywhere else for that matter, have been as honest as that? The story comes from Washington of t the downfall and departure of the fa mous canine, Pete. The President's blue ribbon hull terrier, whose disre gard for diplomats, high state officials, newspaper reixirters, and humble gov ernment clerks visiting the White House has caused much trouble and even threatened international compli cations, has finally been banished from the national capital. After his last escapade, he was taken to the back yard of one of the President's friends in the suburbs, and chained securely to an iron post. A day or so ago he nipped about two pounds of flesh from the leg of an electrician who strayed too near.' The incident is said to have reached the ears of the Presi dent, and a man from Sagamore Hill has just taken the nation’s most fa mous dog away from Washington in a cage, bound for the nation’s summer capital.
The Verdict in Idaho. After deliberating 20 hours that 1 Idaho jtyy reached the conclusion that the case against William D. Haywood had not been proved beyond the pos sibility of a doubt and accordingly as bound by their oaths and by the in structions of the judge, they brought in a verdict of not guilty. As the case against the other two prisoners, Moyer and Pettibone is presumably much the same as that which the government had against Haywood, it seems im possible that they will be convicted when the first of the trio has been set free. Judging from the newspaper accounts of the closing scenes of the trial it was the unexpected which hap pened when the verdict of not guilty returned. The long delay in reaching a verdict and an undetlnable something which was in the air led even Hay wood and his lawyers to feel that the verdict was against them. It is a matttr of congratulation that the jury was able to reach an agree ment and that its deliberations did not result in a failure to agree as has so often been the case in trials attracting great public attention and involving great xpense. Nobody will question the fact that Haywood was given a perfectly fair trial. Before the ver dict was returned, Haywood, his rela tives and his lawyers all agreed that there had been fair play from begin ning to end, and at every stage of the proceedings Judge Wood made evident his determination that the prisoner sin uld have the full benefit of every doubt which might be legally exercised in his behalf. The trial has given the world the assurance, if such an assurance were needed, that an American jury In the midst of an almost unparalleled pas sion and prejudice both for and iigainst the man on trial, can bring in a verdict which takes Into considera tion nothing but the law and the evi dence. However impressed the mem bers of the jury may have been by Or chard's grewsome confession of mur der and conspiracy, they gave strict heed to the charge of Judge Wood that they should not give any weight to this confession unless fully con vinced that it had been absolutely cor roborated. Tli>’ acquittal of Haywood is a great victory for the able lawyers who de fended him, but the trial can hardly be of assistance to the Western Fed eration of Miners which was on trial as well ns the prisoner at the bar. The disclosures of the case were such that no officer or member of that organiza tion will venture to claim that its methods have been vindicated by the publicity given them. Though Hay wood and his fellow officers of the federation go free, it is assured that the future efforts of the organization to win recognition and to enforce de mands will be less bloody and struiu >us than those of the past. The Unknown Laborer. Yesterday morning an Italian laborer working on the line of the new electric railroad to connect Gardiner and Lew iston, was killed by the falling of a tree. The man was one of several hundred in the employ of the contract or. Nobody knew his name; nothing was known of his relatives or friends. It was simply understood that he was an Italian and his only distinguishing mark was a number on a metallic tag by which lie was known to the boss. Suelj an incident as this is not very common, to be sure, in the building of our electric roads, for the nature of the work is not in itself especially hazardous, yet similar tragedies occa sionally occur here in Maine and the killing of unknown laborers is of very frequent occurrence in the great cities "here much work is being done on tunnels and sowers, in sections where railroads are being built, and in the mining regions. i Where large gangs of laborers are i employed in construction work they are usually tagged instead of being known by their names. In most cases they arc newly arrived foreigners I whose names are hard to pronounce and worse to spell, and when a train runs into a gange at work or when there is an explosion in a mine, or a tunnel caves in, or a storm swamps a dredge used in coast improvement work, it is simply given out that a dozen or a score of Italians, or Poles or Lithuanians are killed. Their names are of no importance to the rest of us. any more than the names would be of the victims of a Chinese famine, or the plague in India, or an earthquake In New Zealand. bn the southern battlefields, in our great national cemeteries, and in some of our northern cities, there are monu ments and memorials to the thousands of unknown dead of the great Civil War. They died for their country and a grateful people loves to honor their memory. In the great army of labor which is ligating the battle of our country’s progress and prosperity there is also a great and unknown number of unknown dead. They die by hundreds and probably by thou sands every year, as our mines and railroads and mills and river tunnels daily eiaim their fresh victims. But the work must be done and there are plenty of men to do it. and when one dies at his task somebody at once steps in to fill the vacant place.
I The dead and unidentified laborer, of I which we had an incident on the new electric road to Lewiston yesterday, is only an incident of the day’s work. Some other nameless immigrant wears the dead man’s metal tag and the work goes on. And yet the dead man was a human being. Somewhere far beyond the sea are those who knew and loved him and they will never know his fate. It seems a very hard thing, but it has always been the way of the busy world and will continue to be while man earns his bread by the sweat of his brow. Another Veteran Senator Gone. Closely following upon the announce nu-nt of the death of Senator Morgan of Alabama, comes the death of ius aged colleague. Senator Pettus, who, wi ll 8« years to his credit, was the oldest member of the upper branch of Con gress. Unlike the late Senator Mor gan, Senator Pettus had been in the upper branch of Congress but a rela tively few years. He was appointed in 1S96 at the age of 75 and when death came he was serving his second term which would have expired in l90y Like Senator Morgan he was a native of Alabama, a Confederate vet •ran and a resident of the town of Selma. This place of only 8,000 peo ple, of which a majority are negroes, ms for years had the distinction of jeing the home of Alabama’s two vet eran senators. Before coming to the Senate Mr. Pet tus had never been in public life. He was one of the men who went to Cali fornia in 1S49 when the gold fever brokj out, but remained there only a year or two and then returned to his native state where he practiced law, with the exception of the Civil War period, until he went to the Senate it decade ago. Unlike his colleague, Senator Pettus was no speech-maker and his voice was seldom heard in the Senate. Like him, however, he was a man of strong and independent views, of strict integrity, clinging always to old-fashioned ideas and manners, and a venerable and picturesque figure who will be much missed in Washing ton. In the passing of Senators Morgan and Pettus a younger generation comes to the,front as representing Alabama in the Senate. Ex-Congressman Bank head has already been appointed to succeed Senator Morgan and it is said that cx-Governor Johnson will succeed Senator Pettus. While these two men may be more progressive than their predecessors they are certainly not to be classed as their equals in intel lectual strength, and Alabama will hardly hold the important place in the Senate which the two old veterans have given it. The death of Senator Pettus leaves Senator Whyte of Mary land, aged 83. as the oldest member of the upper branch. Mixing Humor and Mathematics. Figures will not lie, hut Democratic editors will bear watching. In the hands of a Demorcatic editor, especial ly if the gentleman also poses as a professional humorist, facts and figures are mere toys and not things to bo tak en at t*Il seriously. Now, there is the Watervillc Sentinel, for instance. Just at present it is engaged in the glorious and natriotie business of running down the State of Maine, declaring that Maine farms are decreasing in number and value and assuring Maine farmers that they and their business are headed straight for the demnition bow-wows. In the Sentinel's latest calamity whine, which of course every intelli gent farmer in Maine knows is not justified by the actual conditions, it brings out figures showing that the total acreage of Maine farms de creased from 6,552.578 in IS SO to 6,290,9-16 in 1900, a decrease of 260,000 acres in the 20 years. Having presented these fig ures the Sentinel proceeds to talk about a decrease of "35 per cent." since 1S80 in Maine's improved farm lands. The mathematical process by which the Sentinel gives the impres sion that 250,000 is 35 per cent, of 6, 552.57S is one peculiar to the Sentinel sanctum and with which the readers of that paper are familiar. A little later in the same editorial this de crease is spoken of as a decrease of 1.000,000 acres. This, however, is a trilling discrepancy, and will simply give the prosperous farmers of Maine, if it happens to meet their eyes, another chuckle at the uncontrollable exuberance of the Sentinel humorist. Plainly, the mixture of humor and mathematics has created a cerebral tornado in the Sentinel office, but it will take more humor and mofe mathe matics than have yet been employed if the farmers of Maine are to be con vinced that the Maine agriculture is on the decline. They know very much better. They know that farm values in Maine are higher now than ever before, that Maine farmers are better off, and Maine farming conditions the best in the history of the State.

McLaughlin, in the articl^ .which went the rounds of the papers list week re garding an alleged asfcatltv made by him upon the customer named Wright. The article stated that a warrant was made out for Mr. McLaughlin and that settlement was made by his apologising and paying all the costs. The following affidavit from Trial Justice Lombard of old Orchard sets the matter straight: Dear Sir—In the matter of Wright va. McLaughlin, which was disposed of, I wist: to state that the matter was amica bly adjusted between the parties without recourse to the court. There were no apologies made or costs paid by Me laiichliti. Both parties regretted that the affair took place and expressed a willing ness to settle it la this manner. Mr. Wright paid for pictures and the affair lumpily t>- 1 lie members of the class of XX. Another of the windows will be in memory of Admiral Sampson.

Little of Everything My Summer Girl. She 'lr heart’s just swelled With pride as her glories gleam, To think she’s mine, and her eyes they shine. When I whisper, "have some ice cream?” Of that frozen stuft she can’t get enough. And my salary’s going fast. For when we walk and I’d fondly talk. Not an ice cream saloon is passed. She’s as brave as fair, any risk she’d dare. Her red lips merely to curl With contempt at the names of the dread Ptomaines— My fearless ice cream girl! I have wooed dear maids of other shades Of tastes and demands on cash: Tile winter belle, of theatres swell; With amo girls cut a dash. In spring and fall, I have tiied them all, Found each cnc of price a pearl, Fui the dearest one, when all's said and done. Is my summer ice cream girl. -•-Baltimore American. How a Flea Jumps. It is said that a flea leaps two hun dred times Its height, and while it usual ly does laud on its. feet, it often falls, especially when it falls on a perlectiy smooth surface where the claws can get only a slight hold. A Ilea has six legs, whose great length and bulk make them so heavy that they must be a great help in keeping their owner right side up when it makes one of those gigantic jumps, and when It lords upside dow n, or in some other W’oy, its abii’ty to kick is so great, that not more than one wiggle is needed to-set. things right. A flea's wings are mere scales, and ot no use; hut small and worthless as they are, they tell the entomologist something about the proper classification of the insect. To the flea itself they have no value.-St. Nicholas. The Way of the College Girl. (Philadelphia Record.) "These college girls, said a clergyman, as he gazed ui tl o white and supert) ranks of the beautiful graduates, "are a boon to the race. They introduce new ideas. "i christened the other day the llrst baby of a married college girl. Now. I abics usually cry while they are lieing christened: but this one was as uuiet as a lamb. Thioughout the ceremony it smiled up beautifully into n>y face. Well, madam.’ said I to the young wife at tile christening's end. ’I must congratulate you or. your little one’s be havior. I have cliristi lmd more than 2.CO0 babies, but I never before christened one t tin t behaved so well as yours.’ "The young mother smiled demurely. ’No wonder hi’ behaved well.’ she said ‘His father and I. with a pail of water, have been practicing christening on him for the last ten days.’ "The. idea of rehearsing a baby for tt christenirg! Who but a colli ge girl would think of suc h a thing?" How We Do Change. Oh, tlie (car old swimming hoMow! It was there we usul to wallow in an unhygienic pool of brackish ooze. Whilst the insects stung like fury and a self-appointed jury tied our clothing into knots and hid our shoes There were lots of bottles busied; there were piles of tin cans rusted; there were heaps of deadly junk on every hand; And it makes me weak and chilly as I think of the bacilli, ilow we dodged ’em I shall never understand.
Oil, the deal old swimming hollow! All the pm ts love to follow hack tin trail that leads to boyhood and to you Hut as. 1 reeall the brambles that were wont to mar our iambics, niy regrets, I must eontess, are very few.

Ever Had Ocean Heart? The throbbing and vibration of the en gines of a modern steamer have a most extraordinary effect upon the human heait. Het It be said at once that ocean Wav-ling does not In anv way Injure the heart; on the contrary, It benefits It, with the general health. Tint the vibration of the machinery Is transmitted to this vital organ with the most extraordinary results so far as med ical examination Is concerned. A ship’s doctor w ill tell you that when he listens,through hts stethoscope to the beating of a man’s heart at sea. It seems as If every moment the heart would stop. A’lth sturdv and Invalid passengers it Is just the same. The heart appears to the doctor as if every beat would be its last. This being the ca«e. It Is exceed ingly difficult for the physician to nscer i tain the true condition of the trawler’s h-a'th. and he generally resorts to the expedient of slinging his patient in a hammock, where the vibration !s or.nsld era hi y lessened, though no device can i overcome it altogether.

Bangor LITTLE POCKET PHYSICIAN. Hyomei is Guaranteed By Bowditch, Webster Co., of Augusta and Geo. W. Dorr of Waterville To Cure Catarrh. Thousands who have been cured by Hy-o-md call the inhaler that comes with every outfit the “Little Pocket Physician,” as it is so small that It can be carried in the pocket or purse. There is really no excuse whatever for anyone having catarrh now that Hy-o-mei is so readily obtainable, if you have any doubt about its value, Bowditch, Webster Co., of Augusta and Geo. W. Dorr of Waterville will let you have a complete outfit, with the understanding that unless it cures catarrh, it will not cost you a cent. Do not delay longer (he use of Hy-e mel if you suffer with catarrh. This Is a purely local disease, and Hy-o-mel goes right to the spot where the ca tarrh germs are present, destroys them, soothes and heals all inflamma tion and makes a permanent and last ing cure. The complete Hy-o-mel outfit con sists of the "Little Pocket Physician” and a bottle of Hy-o-mel and costs only J1.00, making It the most economical as well as the only guaran teed treatment'for the cure of catarrh. Remember that Hy-o-mel cures catarrh without stomach dosing, ap plying the medication and healing where the disease germs are present. Waterville Note*. George W. Dorr, the enterprising drug gist, has lust received a large stock of Hyomei. the greatest cure for catarrh. With every outfit he gives a signed guar antee to refund the money If Hyomei does not benefit. This Is the famous In halation treatment that cures catarrh without stomach dosing and is the on y guaranteed cure for the disease.

STATE HOUSE. Regarding State Road Work In Maine. Places Which Are Building and Places Which Are Hot. Petitions to Railroa STATE HOUSE CALEti&AR. Next Meeting of Gevemor and Council, Tuesday, Aug. 13, at 10 A. M. From information feceived at the of Paulin Sargent, commissioner (.f highways for the State of Maine, it ds learned that or the 519 cities, towns and plantations in the State 12 cities, A:7 towns £nd 17 plantation? have made ^pproprialton? whereby they will re ceive aid from the State this year in the .matter of construction of State road. Eight cities, 96 towns and 49 plantations have not made appropria tions and one town and one plantation are yet to he heard from. The gat’d roads law, passed by the last Legislature, which will not go into effect until Jan. 1. 1908, takes the work of the roads from the hands of the county commissioners and places it in the State highway department. This law provides that some permanent im provement must be made in each year and also provides that each town must set aside a certain sum of money for permanent work and if it wants State aid must make a social appro priation in addition. Towns will re ceive aid in the following proportions: To towns under $100,090 of valuation, the State will pay $2 for each dollar raised by the town; to the towns hav ing a valuation between $100,000 and $250,000, the State will pay $1.50 for each dollar raised; between $250,000 and $500,000 of valuation, $1.25; between ?$500.000 'and $1,090,000, dollar for dollar; and ever $1,000,000. 75 cents. The following cities will receive State aid in this year: Lewiston, South Portland. Westbrook, Ellsworth, Hal lowed, Brewer, Old Town, Bath, Bel fast, (Salats’. Eastport, Saco. The fol lowing cities have not made appropria tions and will therefore not receive any .'.State aid this year: Auburn. Portland. Augusta, WatePrille, Rockland, Ban gor. r.iddofony Oardiner.

It is burit arif which asks the approval of the board to a change of location in the lino of rail road between Augusta and Vassalboro. The second petition asks permission to extend the line of railroad from the town of Winslow into the city of Watervi'.le, commencing at the east end of the Ticonic bridge, and extend init’trom that point to Waterville, along Tjridge street in that city, across prijjfrte land, across Lockwood street, fod^tthg Front street to Temple streets and along iho latter street to the easterly line of Maine street, a dis tance* «if 2,367 feet. Another short line extends from station 7-!t on Fridge street to the easterly line of Smith Main street, a distance of 132 feet. Hearings on the two petitions will be ordered later. The work of sinking an artesian well on the hill owned by the State and used for a campground for the National Guard, has been commenced and is progressing well. The shaft is six inches in diameter and it is ex pected ttiat a supply of water will he secured which will he ample for all the requirements of the troops while in camp. If the supply of water secured is found to he sufficient it is understood that the military authori ties contemplete its use for sanitary purposes by introducing a system of flush closets through which water will he constantly flowing and which will drain into a cesspool. This plan would do away with the sinks which have heretofore been list if anti would be a great improvement. The automobile business at the office of the secretary of State is still In full swing, although it is rather unusual for this season of the year, and applications are still coming in daily. This condition of affairs is due to the fact that the manufacturers are away behind on their orders and many machines have not been delivered yet. Cars which have been delivered in May are jnst getting along, and the people who ordered them art* cor respondingly anxious for them to come along. The following corporation has filed its certificate of organization at the office of the secretary of State: John O. Rice Audit Co., organized at Portland, for the purpose of conduct ing the business of bookkeeping for persons and corporations, with $10,000 capital stock, of which nothing is paid in. Officers: President. Fred If. King of Portland; treasurer. Charles L. Hutchinson of Portland. Certificate filed July 20, 1907. The Hewitt Family Reunion.

Hersey’s Summer Theatre Contin ues In Its Successful Season. Although the last week was rather disagreeable, the many sununerixts at the lake managed to enjoy themselves. Because of the rainy week, bridge whist came suddenly into great popu larity anti frequent bridge parties are now the fashion. Nearly every cottage is now occupied and in respect to popu lation, the season probably exceeds all preceding summers. Perhaps the greatest change at the lake in the past few years is the de crease in the number of sailboats. Five years ago, a sailing race would tall forth about 25 boats while today only about nine boats could enter a race. The change is probably due to the great popularity of the motor boats, but after this lias somewhat worn off, a reviving interest in sailing at Cnb bossee is expected. A regatta will probably be belli soon to compete for the “Goyernor's” Cup under the aus pices of the Cobbosseecontce Yacht Club. The Water Witch, K. M. Thomp son's fast sailer, has won the cup for the last two years and if she should win this year, the eup will become the permanent property of Judge Thomp son. The summer theatre continues in its path of popularity and success, retain ing its old friends and gaining new ones at every performance. Launch parties from the different shores of the lake to attend the theatre are becoming very popular, and hist week, a large hayrack full of summerists from the Outlet enjoyed one of the performances and dance which followed. The play for the lirst part of the week is “The Indian,” while during the last three days the company will present one of tin ir strongest productions, entitled “A Noble Sacrifice,” which is written by the author of the “Squaw Man.” The Outlet continues to be (lie favor ite spot on the lake for Massachusetts pleasure seekers. At present, there Is a party of l ight young ladies and gen tlemen from the Bay State who are en joying summer life at Joe Kmcry’s. Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Bond are oc cupying the smaller Lippincott cottage at Hammond's Grove. Mr. Bond, who has made such a favorable impression on many who have attended the sum mer theatre, in his presentation of the leading role of nearly every piece, has signed an engagement for two years under David Belasco, the great play writer and manager. Mr. Bond will ap pear this coming season in a new play, written by Belasco, in which David Wartiold, famous for his work in the Music Master, will star. The play will be presented lor the entire season at Belaseo's theatre on Broadway in New York. Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Cunningham of New York, spent the past week at lin tel Pines. Commodore Robinson has once again started bis swimming school and many of the undergraduates are daily profit ii g from his instructions. Wood McCargo entertained his friends very pleasantly last Thursday, taking them on an enjoyable sail about the lake in Captain Pernette's launch. The following were present: Mrs. Wood, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Goodwin, Miss Clara Goodwin, Miss Marion Yea tv, Edwin Burleigh, Norman Rur goss, Alden Hichborn, Fordice Tuell, Herbert Heath, Frederick Jones, Allen Whitney, Max Wilder. Fred Thompson, William Williamson, and Donald Bur leigh. Mr. and Mrs. George Young of Rrook line, formerly of Portland, are guests of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Pierce. Colonel Farrington and grandaugh ter, Marjorie, passed Sunday at the lake. Mrs. \V. D. Stinson and daughters. Krnily and Mary, will soon leave the lake for Monhogan. Hon. ami Mrs. T. Brown will prob ably open the North cottage at Ham mond's Grove this week. George Temple feels justly proud of his refreshment store at the ear station at Mersey's Island. Mr. Temple has all kinds of smoking delights, candies and soft drinks, and in addition to these, he makes a specialty o! serving lunches. Mrs. F. II. Rurgess went to Old Or chard Sunday for a brief visit. LETTER TO C. S. DOWNING SON INSURANCE. AUGUSTA Augusta, Maine, July 27th, 1007. C. S. Downing Son, Augusta, Maine.

W. Harlow farm just be yond Main Top on the West River road, had an exciting time Sunday noon with a dog which was supposed to be suf fering from tlie rabies. The animal was a strange one and nothing was known of his presence in tlie neighborhood until he dashed through the wire screen door into the kitchen where the mem bers of the family were. He had every appearance of being mad but luckily attacked no ono and Mr. Nason was enabled with the aid of a club to drive him out of doors. He then ran around the house and crawled under some steps, and by raising one of the boards Mr. Nason was able to get the tines of a pitchfork over the dog’s neck and pin him to the ground until his legs could lie tied. A telephone message was then sent to City Marshal Fletcher, who went up and shot the dog. LOCAL NOTICES. There will be a lawn party at 102 nangor street tonight. Cut flowers and potted plants, O. P.

MELVILLE SMITH, MUSH! HELL 185 Water Street, Augusta, Me. j?>i"i::t TELEPHONE TALKS Believing That Exact Knowledge Promotes Go-operati the New England Telephone and Telegraph Comp: is Publishing a series of Brief Expositions of S Phases of Telephony, for the Benefit of Itself,. as It Hopes, for the Benefit of All Telephone UNSUSPECTED CAUSES OF “TROUBLE” Apart from the inevitable “trouble” in I he intricate anil sensitive equip ment of central cilices anil in the ex tensive system of outside lines, over head and underground, the telephone service occasionally suffers from dis turbance of the circuits or instruments on the subscribers' premises. This kind of "trouble" is difficult to locate, and so is specially annoying; but almost always it is perfectly avoldtUile, being caused by unconscious careTejfness. In one case when a subserifcg^ceport od that be was unable to talk Uftjgugh his telephone at all it was fiilitid lliq£ a member of the family had laid pfttr of spectacles on top of ihe bell fSix of the instrument so that the stcfel bows touched against the binding posts to which the outside wires are- fastened, thus “cutting out” both transmitter and receiver by closing the circuit before it reached them. Another sub scriber declared that people who called him had been told “They don’t an swer" when he knew positively flint the bell had not rung at ail. His difficulty turned out to be due not to any failure of “Central" to perform her work properly, but to the fact that his wife had muflled the telephone bells while the baby took his nap and had forgotten to remove the muffler. Inside telephone wiring is insulated with the greatest care to protect it against dampness and to keep the wires separated from each other. It cannot b*' made proof against every thing though. Every now and then a subscribers’ “station” fails to work properly because some one stands a dripping umbrella where it saturates ihe telephone cord and spoils the in sulation. or a careless office boy does similar damage in polishing a desk set with liquid instead of with chamois leather. I.eaky plumbing raises havoc with interior circuits every now then. Here and there is a person who has a Jinbit of Jal with a pen the green siik cord of desk set while he is telephoning, wlfl the result, of course, that he eventual ly spoils the insulation, which brings the wires of the circuit into contact and puts them out of commisison. And many subscribers •‘fidget" with the green cord when talking, twisting, trending it between^ their One of these days thgj cpj inside break completetjMlU.

For obvious reasons Mill ing should he stretched over the open ing of the mouthpiece; that puts an obstacle between the voice anil the diaphragm.' The mouthpiece can be kept perfectly clean by wiping it out with a dry cloth; no liquid should be used. Carpenters, paper hangers, painters, plumbers and other workmen who. with the best intentions in the world, move the wires temporarily that they may better do their work, frequently either break the circuit in doing so, or injure it in their attempts to replace things as they found them. When it is necessary to disturb telephone wiring for any purpose, the company should he asked to send its own expert men; and it will save the subscriber loss of time and interruption of service if he will notify his manager at once of any kind of “trouble." so that it may be traced and remedied as quickly possible. There is no charge for call ing the exchange office for this pur pose. whether the call Is made from subscriber’s “station" or from a pub lic pay station.

A hearing was held in the office of tho Kennebec jail Monday morning be fore Judge Andrews of the Augusta municipal court, in the ease of Ira Smith of this city, on a charge of as sault and battery which was preferred against him by his divorced wife, An nie Smith of Togus, and which was al leged to have been committed in the vicinity of Togus on the afternoon of July 15. Mrs. Smith was present at tlie hearing and testified. Smith plead ed not guilty to the charge hut from the nature of the testimony introduced probable cause was found and he was held in ‘-be sum of $.r>00 for the Septem ber term of the superior court. He was unable to secure the required sum and was returned to jail, where he was already serving a 30-(lay sentence for drunkenness and disturbance. A little tale has drifted in from Cobbosseecontee within the past few days which tells not of the many pleasures which are brought to one by life along the shores of the pictures que resort hut rather of the trials which are sometimes sandwiched in between. The trials in tills ease came to a certain Augusta skipper who is the owner of a launch and who spends much time navigating the craft after banking hours. He is quite expert in the handling of the launch and is de sirous also that his wife should become proficient in the art of gasoline navi gation. and to that end the other day was instructing her how to make a landing. She did not get the knack on the tirst trial and lie took the wheel in order to show her how to do it. There was another lady in the boat with them and it was up to him to do the thing just right. Hb came along side the dock in good shape and pro ceeded to shut off his engine hut in doing so lie did not tlu'ow the lever far enough over and the craft commenced to back. In tlie meantime he had stepped from the launch to the wharf and as lie saw the boat backing away he grabbed tlie flagstaff on the bow and tried to hold the craft that wiy, but the horsepower of the engine was fully equal to his and tlie boat kept backing. He is a tall man and has a good reach, but as he leaned out over the edge of the wharf there speedily came a moment when he lost his equilibrium and the Inevitable happen ed. Help was at hand in the person of one of tlie other cottagers, so that the launch and its occupants were soon re turned to the wharf and the only disagreeable consequence of the inci dent was the wetting which was monopolized hy the owner of the launch, but It Is not learned that the) lessons to his better half have been resumed.

C., July 29.—Trees arc fixed. almost Inflexible, In their habit* For centuries, Indeed a* Ion* us v.e liav.s record, each aper ies has kept in Its tauten ways; insisting on the san e average tein perature and refusing to grow where this could not he found- seeking and occupy ing certain kinds of soil and demanding certain amounts of moisture and av.tid ing situations where these were wanting. The latest authorities go so far as to declare that trees can not Is* acclima tized: that Is, that even the Ingenuity and perseverance of man are unahle to leaner trees to change their habits fur enough to adopt a country not closely like their native habitat. For a time the forester may use various devices to sur round a tree with artificial conditions by which, so to speak, the tree is deluded into feeling at home. But as soon as the forester’s care is withdrawn In sueli eases, the tree is seized with Jioiiiesiek riess and dies of It. Tills fastidiousness In the habits of trees has its good and Its' bad sides. It absolutely limits the forester’s choice of trees to grow in a given region. To seek to force tree growth in uncongenial con ditions is entirely fruitless. But, on the other hand, there Is practical certainty of results. If beech 01 spruce thrives where the average warmth and moisture of the growing season from, year to year ranges between certain degrees, then Wherever else. In the northern hemis phere at least, the same average Is found, the forester may plant Is-et h or spruce, whether or not they lie not already there, with confidence that they will flourish. The same law works both ways. If the forester finds beerh or spruce or an/ other tree growing In a region of wl ieh the climatic conditions are not recorded, he knows within very narrow limits what the climnie is, simply because l.c knows that at home this tree grows in such a climate. In other words, trees, espe cially of nurse those wl lcli are particu larly fastidlc us, are very satisfactory sub stitutes for thermometers a wl barometers so far as the average temperature and moisture conditions during the vegeta tive season are concerned. There Is a close relation between a tree’s demands upon temperance and Its demands upon soil. Given the proper temperature. It will grow where the soil Is unfilendl> and given the most con genial toll, it will glow where the tem perature is not Ideal. The colder and wetter the soil, the better will It grow witli a relatively hlgli temperature; the driei and warmer the soil, tlie better wili it grow with a relatively low tem perature. Thus, on a northern slope the forester will often find it safe to plant trees- which would not thtive on the southern slcpe of the same mountain, be cause northern slopes are cooler and moister than southern ones, and this dif ference mav suffice to ofi'set a slight dis advantage in the genera! temperature of tl-c region. There Is a wide variation among trees as to the range of temperature which they endure. Some, such as the Douglas fir, yellow pine, eastern spruce, or aspen, grow over wide areas from north to south' others. «ueh as Mexican white pine, eucal> pi us, or redwood, are more narrow Iv confined. But it should not ho inferred that only geographic lines cau he drawii £pr the distribution of any species.
