A gasoline launch carrying a party of five men and a 4-year-old boy was overturned by a tug’s tow line and swept beneath the barge the tug was hauling in Hampton Roads Sunday night. The child was drowned. The others were rescued, one, however, having broken his log at attempting to leap on the barge. Attorney General W. A. Anderson stated Monday at Richmond. Va., that Saturday's capitulation of the railways is not. as generally supposed, an end of the rate fiuestinn between the rail roads and the state, for the stipulations of the “truee” have yet to be executed. “The purpose and effect of the arrange ment which has been made between the railroads and the state,” said Mr. 'An derson, "arc to facilitate nnd expe dite a decision of the important ques tions presented by these cases by tile supreme court of the United States." Attorneys for the Standard Oil Co., and the International Harvester Co., Monday filed objections with the state supreme court at Topeka, Kan., to in terrogative recently propounded by the attorney general of Kansas in the state suits charging these concerns with vio lating tlte Kansas anti-trust law.

New York, Aug. 6.—One of the most brutal of the crimes which have swept over New York and vicinity recently was added to the long list of ussaults on women and children Monday, when Lucca Fontzz was locked up in the po lice station at New Brighton, Staten Island, charged with assaulting An toinette Talucl, two years old, with whose parents Fontzz boarded. Fontzz was left to care for the little girl while Mrs. Talucl went out to make some purchases. The mother had not gone far when she heard the child scream. She quickly returned and found Fontzz, she says, in the act of attacking the child. When he saw Mrs. Talucl, Fontzz rushed from the house, Mrs. Talucl fol lowing him. Her cries brought out the neighbors and soon a mob was follow ing the flying Italian. He was over taken and severely beaten by men and women until a policeman appeared and with club and revolver fought the crowd and conveyed the prisoner to the police station. The child, on the or ders of Judge Marsh, was examined by a physician, and Fontzz was held in J50U0 bail on a charge of criminal as sault. The child is seriously injured. Angeline Condarti. a 6-year-old c hild, was found terribly bruised in a thick et near the village of Linoleumville, Staten Island, this afternoon. She had been attacked by an unknown man. John Ambatra, an Italian laborer, was arrested in Brooklyn Monday af ternoon on a charge of attempted as sault on (trace Winters, eight years old. and Amanda Barbier, nine years old. Daniel La lor was arraigned in the Kssox Market court, charged by Lena Weinstoek, 12 years old, with assault ing her, and Frank P. Body, a barber, was in the same court charged with attempting to assault 9-year-old Eni ma Diamond. William Hoffman. IS years old, was arrested Monday at his home in Port llichmond, Staten Island, on suspicion that he knows something about the death of Sophie Heckler, the servant girl who was found murdered in the Inline of litr employers in G2d street Saturday, after the house had been robbed. The police say that Hoffman was paying attentions to the girl and believe that he was the last one to see her alive. Deputy Police Commissionuer O'Keefe, who is in charge of the police department during the absence of Com missioner Bingham, Monday asked the mayor and the board of estimate and aportionment for funds to employ an additional 500 policemen. The request will be acted on Wednesday. The police are making every effort possible to stop the crimes which are being daily reported, but seem help less. Most of the crimes are commit ted in little frequented places, in cel lars and dark hallways, and it seems almost impossible to prevent them. Mothers throughout the city are ter ror stricken, and incidents which un der ordinary circumstances would be passed over without a second thought are magnified hysterically, and scores of reports are made daily to the police which have practically no foundation in fact. But with all this the situation is serious and this fact is realized by the police as much as by anyone else. Thomas Anderson, a laborer, aged 2o years, was arrested in Brooklyn to night, charged with attempt to assault 5-year-old Julia Sleischer. He was held. May Mace, a girl of 16, accused Guis eppi Triestre, an Italian. Her screams attracted attention and soon a crowd of 500 men and women were chasing the Italian. Ho was overtaken and beaten unmercifullv until half a dozen police nun rescued him. Israel Israelson accosted Freda Ber kowitz, aged 7, in 151st street. Monday night. A crowd soon gathered about the man, who was rescued by the police. CONDENSED DISPATCHES. T.ron Maillery, the naval reservist who fired two revolver shots at Pres. Fallieres in the streets of Paris, .Tilly 14, was Monday declared to be In sane and was sent to an asylum. Ralph A. Jenkins and Rodney S. Jenkins of Pittsfield, X. H., Monday made a successful descent of Hunting ton ravine, Mt. Washington, a feat rarely, if ever before accomplished. The ravine is 1000 feet deep, with a preci pittous hoadwall. The Messrs. Jenkins found a snow arch still standing in Tuckerman's ravine. Joseph H. Choate and James Brown Scott of the American delegation to the peace conference at The Hague, spent the entire day Monday conferring with the leading delegates about the Ameri can proposal for the establishment of a permanent court of arbitration at The Hague, which is to come up for dis cussion Tuesday before a special com mission. The institution of a permanent court is now considered definitely as sured. Alvin S. Lyon, prominent in the wool en trade through his service as agent of the Wood mill at Lawrence of the American Woolen Co., died at the Ho tel Preston, at Swampscott, Mass., shortly after 1 A. M. Tuesday. Mr. Lyon arrived a few days ago, after a lingering illness from diabetes which came to an acute stage Sunday and re sulted in his death. Mr. Lyons was 69 years old and one son, George A. Lyons, treasurer of the Lowell Machine Works, survives. Refusing the granting of his petition that he be appointed by Judge Landis, of the Cnlted States district court as co-receiver with John C. Hately, now in charge of the Zion City property, and unheeded in his protests against the sale of the Zion lace industry, Over seer Wilbur Glenn Vollva, who usurped the place of John Alexander Dowie as head of the Christian Catholic church, Monday asserted his defiance of the forces organized against him and de clared that he would abandon Zion City to establish a colony of his own else where. Before the eyes of a small crowd of onlookers in Cambridge, Mass., Mon day, an unknown mar. calmly laid his head on the rails in front of an ap proaching train, and before the engi neer c-iuld stop his locomotive, two oars f 1 he train had passed over the man's neck, beheading him.

Can ham ana wife of Lisbon were taken very ill Sunday and required the con tinued service of two physicians for some time before they were considered ifi a safe condition to be left. A hand of gypsies deserted a woman and five children Saturday at Freeport by leaving them nt the car barn of tlie* I'ortland llrunswiek Electric ltoad, after an attertipt to force Superinten dent Reynolds to pay damages for a pair of horses killed last week. The horses had wandered away from camp in the night time and were struck by a passing car and killed. Supt. Rey nolds refused to pay for them and the gypsies left the wagon containing one woman and five children for him to look after. He notified Deputy Sheriff Pinkham and the selectmen. They quickly overtook the gypsies and forc ed them to take the woman and chil dren and move out of town. Ralph Peters, president of the Long Island Railroad, .who, with General j.Ianager MeCrea, was held responsible by tlie coroner’s jury for the deaths of Dr. Gallagher and Miss Madigan. whose automobile was struck by a Long Is land train, at St. Albans crossing two weeks ago, was served with a warrant of arrest Monday at Jamaica, and held by Coroner Ambler in $10,000 bail to await the action of the grand jury.

She be came possessed of madness which lias twice caused her to be confined in an insane asylum, and strangled li<r two little girls. When the police were summoned she fondled the little bodies and gave them up only when forced to do so. She thinks that she has sim ply put them to sleep and her one fear now seems to be that they will be awakened. The first action on any of the 46 or more suits filed against various rail roads by the Federal government for failure to feed and water livestock in transit, came Monday at Cincinnati. Ohio, when TTnited States Judge Thompson sustained the demurrer of the Baltimore Ohio Southwestern Railway in the case of a shipment by U. W. While, from Exenia, Ohio, to Louisburg. Ohio. The petition failed to show a violation of the statute by that railroad.

THE CITY FATHERS Vote to Build Chapel at Pine Grove Ceme* tary and Extend Pine Grove Sewer== Lack of Order on Streets Considered. ■Yb" v->ugust nutting of the Wator ville city government was held last evening. The principal matters decided were the building of a sewer and the consideration of the alleged lack of or der on the street. Mayor Bunker said that frequent complaints bad b°en made to him that men were on the streets in an intoxicated condition jevenings and that the police were mak ing little or no effort to keep the side walks clear or to protect citizens from insult.

Frank Redington, of the cemetery committee, addressed the aldermen and read a written request by the commit tee for the right to erect the chapel, which should cost, completed and fur nished, not over $7iOOO. Mr. Redington said that the reason why the right to sign the note was asked for, was because it was not deemed good business policy to sell se curities of the committee covering the amount, which are now drawing inter est at fi per cent. Mr. Redington read that portion of Chapter 2D of the City Ordinances re lating to the powers of the cemetery committee. He was of the opinion that the cemeterj committee iiad the right to construct the mortiyiry chapel with the advice and consent of the mayor and aldermen. He hail boon so advised l>y Hon. Charles K.

Fred Dow was given an honorable dis charge from the fire department, owing to his removal from the city, and Louis Hardy was appointed to succeed him. Stanley Landry was granted a license to conduct on employment agency. German L. Barry addressed the alder men in the interests of firemen's field day the first week in September. He asked for a donation of *100 and this was grant ed by an order drawn by Alderman Colby. A common council order signed by A. F.

An order was drawn by Alderman Cnlhi that a platform be built at the gravel pit for the storing of sleds ued by the street department in the winter. The order was passed. The mayor brought up the matter of al leged disorders on the streets of the city. He said that complaints had been made to him that the police, instead of pre venting, sometimes encouraged disorder. Alderman Poulin asked the mayor if lie did not think that unsigned communica tions should he disregarded. The mayor replied that he had received some unsign ed letters relatives to disorders on the street, hut that other complaints, fre quently repeated, had been made in per son. The city marshal asked whether this was not the usual complaint at tills time of tile year. Alderman Baxter moved to adiourn to Aug. 13 and the meeting closed at S 40 P. M. Starch Factory== Can’t We Have It? Joseph Roderick if this city is some thing of a potato grower on iiis own account. For several years lie lias been experimenting on growing pota toes and was unusually successful witii his crop last year, reaping good har vests and selling them at good prices. Tliis year Mr. Roderick lias planted some six acres on Drummond avenue near the city and when the Journal representative walked through th rows of dark green potato tops lie was reminded of the extensive Aroos took lit his. They look exactly as thrif ty as the potatoes raised in Aroostook and Mr. Roderick claims they will yield equally, as well. “What we need somewhere near Waterviile.” said Mr. Roderick, “is a starch factory. If we had such a fac tor;. we could sell tilt' small potatoes or those that are rusted and turning had. and clear up a good margin of profit. As it is now, we have to give these small potatoes away or feed them to the hogs.” Similar suggestions hove been made by other potato growers in this im mediate section of the State, and it would seem as if a factory of this kind might lie made to pay. Such a factory would be of great benefit to the farm ers in helping them to clear a larger profit from their yield. Here is another suggestion for the Board of Trade.

Such a great exhibition could not bo gotten together without its patrons going away with a wider knowledge of things agricultural, me ohanit al and artistic. The word which was said at the annual meeting was ir. the nature, not of adverse criticism, hut of helpful advice for the further ance of the plans already partly car ried into effect. The information derived from the three great fairs of the past has been of a rradical nature almost wholly. It remains for the coming exhibition of l'.tOT to see the installation of a depart ment where certain of the theories of agriculture shall he taught. Prof. W. D. Hurd of the University of Maine was in the city yesterday, and made arrangements with President Mayo for the loeation of a tent lOxfiO feet, in which will be displayed the ex hibit o! the University of Maine.

The professors and at tendants will be at hand day and evening on every day of the fair and will lie ready to give information and answer the questions of all who may ask. At stated times during the day. lec tures will he given, to which all are invited. Among the important sub jects on which lectures will he given will be spraying and that little under stood subject, the proper judging of ••attic. Animals will be brought direct ly into the tent and the audience will he told the reason why a certain on*5 will score higher or lower than an other. The professor of horticulture of the university will also lecture on the dis eases which afflict the flora of Maine, and flic most common and simple cures therefor.

Aug. 6.—The New England Amateur Rowing Association, at a special meeting at the Union Boat Club last night, sustained the action of the executive committee, which at a recent meeting indorsed the candi dacy of John P. Coogan of the Spring field B. C. for the executive committee of the N. A. A. O. This decision was reached after much debating in which laxity in the interpretation of the bylaws was al leged, and the decisive vote of 15 to to sustain the chairman, D. George B. Magrath, was certainly a personal compliment, as well as a tribute of loyalty to Mr. Coogan. Both Mr. Coogan and H. P. Ward well of the B. A.

Dover, Eng., Aug. C.—With the prize almost within his grasp, Jaboz Wolfe,.the amateur swimmer who hail already made four unsuccessful at tempts to swim the English channel, was again deprived of victory by an adverse tide this morning. Wolffe had accomplished a record swim from the South foreland, getting within three quarters of a mile of Cape Blano, France, in the speedy time of 15% hours, when the turn of the tide and an adverse wind carriql him away from the land and necessitated the relinquishment of his attempt, which was the second he had made this year. Ft. D. Heaton of Liverpool yesterday also attempted to swim the channel hut gave up when 4% miles from the French coast. HOW IT WORKED. l Bob Fitzsimmons Teaches Sons to Have Business Acumen. “Hob” Fitzsimmons lately bit on a plan to teach bis sons the rudiments of business training. He had worked over the idea until at last it seemed to him he had perfected a truly won derful scheme. Here is how it worked out: Fitz was going fo New York for a week.# Just before leaving his Dunel Ten farm he called the two boys to him and, to their delight, handed each of them a brand new $5 gold-piece. “Xo!" he explained, cutting short their protestations of thanks. “It is n’t for you to spend, but to make more money with. I want you lads to get some business sense. So while I’m gone each of you must think of some way of laying out your money so as to get mor?. You ran buy some thing and sell it at a higher price or make any investment you choose. I’ll bring something nice from New York tQ the boy who has made most when I get bark.” A week later Fitz returned. Sum moning the two boys he inquired as to the outcome of their investments. Beginning with the elder, he asked: “Well. son. how much did you make out of your $5? A week Isn't a very long time, but—” “I made $!i more!” propmtly boasted Bobby. Jr. “I have $10 now.” “Fine!” shouted the delighted Fitz. aglow with pride at his offspring’s fi nancial genius. “And bow about you, sonny?” he added, turning to the younger boy, who stood aloof in rue ful silence. “Didn’t make anything," confessed the latter, “lost the whdle five." “Lost it?" gasped .,Flt*. “How in the world—?” “Matchfn’ Bobby?” grumbled the luckless loser.

Xew York, August 6.—The an nouncement of the West Point football schedule for the ensuing season shows that the army authorities have at last decided to abandon a policy which for years past has been equally praised and condemned by football experts in this country—the policy of playing so many hard games on succeeding Sat in days. This change was caused by the decisive defeat the Navy admin istered to the Army last fall on Frank lin field. This year an easy game pre cedes the navy struggle. Sandy Ferguson has been engaged by Lew Bailey bf Philadelphia to box two men the same night in the Quaker City in about two weeks. Stories Conflict Regarding Transfer of Biddeford Team.

Tne following lx from the Biddeford Tlecord of Aug. fi: Biddeford was read out of the State League at a meeting in Portland yes terday of those representing the two Portland and Bangor teams. Ernest M. Doyle, who had Saturday arranged to take the Biddeford team from the old management, expecting to continue it in the league, attended the meeting in Portland Sunday and was informed that he was too late, as ar rangements had already been made to transfer the Biddeford team to Lew iston. The name Biddeford is no longer to he connected with the Maine League. The standing the team had nttained is stricken and the old standing of the defunct Lewistons will be taken by the transferred team. Those interested in the other teams read in the Sunday papers that the Biddefords had disbanded. This was not the fact, but the league managers made no effort to find out whether it was or not. Some prominent Lewiston business men were interested aril this deal for the transfer of the team was put through. It was practically settled before Doyle had been given a hear ing. It was settled without the knowl t ilge or without consultation with any of the Biddeford players. Capt. Jott of the Bangors came out from Phstland after the meeting, found some of the players and told them that arrangements for the trans fer of the entire team to Lewiston had been made. Salaries had been guaran teed by responsible men, so they were told. Saturday night the management set tled with the players giving them practically all that was due them and paying up other bills. Some of the money received for season tickets was refunded and it is understood that the test will be. Saturday night Ernest Doyle nnd Manager Kerns reached an agreement by which the former was to pay a certain sum, said to be $100, for the uniforms and the privilege of running the team for the balance of the season and there seemed to be every prospect that the team would be continued. Doyle did not feel like saying any thing to the players until he had at tended the league meeting. After he had found that Biddeford had been thrown out there was no occasion for him to see them. There was all kinds of stories about what Dovle had told the players, and how much he was to cut them down and what ones he was to let go and new men that he was going to have. As a matter of fact he had no talk witli any of them after he had ar ranged to take tlie team except Hen derson. He had Jearned from Man ager Kerns that the pay roll was above $-.>a a week. He did tell Henderson that every man on the team would have to take a cut, except one, who, he considered was getting little enough. This talk of a cut did not set well on the players. They said they were ready to keep on under Doyle at the same pay but no cut would they stand. And because bf the prospect of a cut they all practically decided to accept the I.ewlston proposition. It was not until late in the evening that this Lewiston deal was understood. What Doyle will do cannot yet be told. He does not know himself. The unexpected action of the league has entirely upset his plans. It is not un likely that some legal action may be takei, as the league men admitted that they had dropped Biddeford without any other authority than obtained from a newspaper dispatch which was not true. Doyle had not yet paid over the money ngreed upon to the old management. He may throw up the trade now. He may get together a team nnd try independent ball. That is his idea. A short time ago the Biddefords were read a lesson on the sacredness of baseball contracts. Cote could not play in Biddeford because Augusta had a prior claim on him. The right of the managements must be pre served at any cost. Yet in this instance nine men under contract with Bidde ford are moved like so many chessmen to Lew istort without a word of notifi cation either to players or manage ment. The bitterest feeling exists locally over the way Biddeford has been used. The hope has been expressed that Manager Doyle would go ahead and got a winning team and that people interested in the game would agree to back him through the season and force the Portland manager to let Bidde ford back into the league. THE OTHER SIDE. Explanations Concerning Transfer of Biddeford Team to Lewiston. The following Is re-publlslied from the Portland Press: The Biddeford Record complains of what tt calls the unfair treatment of Bid deford by the "mythical” Maine State League. Now we will put it in nil fairness to the Record, for after nil it generally is fair when it takes a second thought, what should the Portland and Bangor man agers have done? All the week there had been talk that Biddeford was to quit but it could be traced to no responsible source. Tile own ers of the team then refused to discuss the matter. Finally a meeting was called for Friday evening and Biddeford was notified and not only notified but urged to attend. Fridny evening no Biddeford showed up. An effort was made to reach the owners of the team by telephone hut it failed. It looked as If It was all over but the Bangor and Por’land people de rided to make one more eiTort to keep tho league going. Pop Williams and Mr. Fow ler of Bangor were delegated to go to Lewiston and see if business men there who were known to be interested in base ball wouldn’t take hold of the matter. They received what they regarded as a practical assurance that Lewiston could be depended on. Sunday afternoon the Portland, Pine Tree and Bangor club owners got together at the West End ho tel. Then considerably to their surprise they were met by Mr. Doyle, who said ho had bought the Biddeford outfit and wish ed to continue in the league. Acting on the refusal of the Biddeford people to attend the meeting Friday and to give any information ns to their intentions, and in the published if not "official” statement that the Biddeford players had been paid off and the team disbanded, the Portland and Rangor people had opened negotiations with Lewiston. Now didn’t the circumstances warrant their doing so? And when Mr. Doyle ap peared should they have forthwith told the Lewiston people it was all off with them or should they have proceeded on the understanding previously reached, when no one In Biddeford woidd even talk hasehall? Allowing that Mr. Doyle’s proposition was ns good or even better than the Lewiston prospects, could tho Portland and Bangor people have done anything different than they did? What the Record says about the early history of the Maine League is all true enough, but the people now connected with the clubs in Portland, South Port land and Bangor nre men of as high standing as there nre in any city. They are in the game for the love of It and nothing more. They want the sport to continue In their respective cities and they do not think they were given the best of treatment by the former Bidde ford management. NAi’OLEDN LAJOIE. Manager of the Cleveland 1'1,-yers, Whose Word is haw. LAJOIE IS BOSS. President Kilfoyle Has Gentle Talk With Suspended Players. Cleveland, Auk. 6.—Oeorge Stovall, first bast-man, and FYank Delehanty, outfielder, worn given a sever*- repri mand at baseball headquarters Mon day by J. Kilfoyle, president of the Cleveland ball club. Stovall explained he threw a chair at Manager Lajoie in the heat of an argument, and Delehanty said he was not drunk in New York. Each player was told to go home and there remain until Lajoie sent for them. “Lajoie’s word is law,” said Kil foyle, ‘‘and the quicker you two and the other players find it out the bet ter. "What he says goes, and both of you stand fined and suspended until Larry sees fit to act.” Delehanty likely will be disposed of, as also will Stovall, uqless Lajoie re lents upon his return home.

S., Aug. £.—The Massachu setts cricketers today sustained their third successive defeat In this city, when the All Halifax team heat them by Rrt runs. The Americans hatted first and put together 124 runs, of which Page contrib uted 55 and Thorpe 37. These scored the only double figures made by tile visitfl-s. Tbe All Halifax team was a strong ag gregation. being composed of the best bats and howlers of the Wanderers and Garrison teams, and they scored 204 runs. Fnskin with 55. Brown with 42 and Ritchie with 37 were the topnotohers. The howl ing of Murray and Page for the Ameri cans was most effective. BASEBALL NOTES. The Fall River team is being pretty well distributed over the cireuit and none of the old players will be there unless the changes are stopped soon. Manager Winn of the Lowell team, has gone on the scout for players and the Lawrence Kagle says the chances are that the players hope that he will stay away for a while, as he will not be in the coaching lines. Tommy Corcoran, who played second base for the Oiants until he was dropped a few weeks ago, and who be came famous as a National League shortstop, has signed a contract to cap tain the Unionville team of the Penn sylvania League for the rest of the sea son. Says the Washington Star: “Never al low a fan to say a winning team has the luck. There was never a championship club that did not have 90 per cent, the !>est of it when it came to the breaks, and that Is why they go along and make such a great record. Many will argue as to why the leading teams have all the luck. It Is not luck, it is the chances they take. A winning team—that is. a team that has a chance to win the pennant—will taka liberties and get away with them. They are not afraid of losing out; generally the team Is ahead, or say, tile score is a tie. The champion teams will argue thus: 1 may as well chance It. If I am to get beat I may as well go down in an at tempt to win out on the chance,' and you will find that nine times out Of 10 the team that takes the chance is the one that wins out. Luck? Nothing of the sore—good generalship.” the m_ram Four Days Meet Opens at the Woonsocket Park, e O’Neil, 6oldie Diliari Plassman Winners. er Fined $25 fer Up a Heat. Wno^eltPt, Jli I., A ur.

Morocco appears to be In a fair way to secure a free concert from the powers. A Georgia minister declures that there are three Heavens. Most peo ple, however, will be content with one. There are said to be no less than 4/100 idle actors in Chicago this sum mer, and Ohio and Kansas are simply suffering for harvest hands. It Is pleasing to know that the "Japanese spy” who was so numerous a short time ago has passed into inocu ous dlsuetude. Now that- France and Spain have got into the game, the Moors are in a fair way to discover that killing Chris tians is a dangerous kind of pastime. The Kansas City Journal reports that a Nebraska man has found a way to produce gas from corn stalks. Tile probabilities are, however, that it was only hot air. Mr. Bryan's vanishing views of pub lic questions are very much in keeping with tlie present condition of his presi dential boom, which appears to be slowly fading awuy upon the political horizon. Bolivia is offering cheap land to im '.v migrants and would doubtless be able to get thejn in good numbers if it could make it evident to them that their titles would be good from one revolution to another. K. F. Richardson declines to be fur ther associated with Clarence Darrow, a Chicago lawyer, on the ground that he cannot longer endure the latter’s methods. There are certainly some features of them that do not appeal to thoughtful citizens. Secretary Taft's presidential boom appears to be in harmony with his pro portions. Still, a good many of his contemporaries will cling to the hope that President Roosevelt, in response to tlie very evident wishes of his coun trymen, will consent to run again. The city of Washington owes much of the beauty of her streets and parks to the genius of the late Augustus St. Gaudens. In no part of this country will he be more sorely missed or sincerely mourned than at our national capital. State Senator Pat McCarren of New York Is reported to have said recently that he would not trust a reformer with a dog’s breakfast, which reminds some or our contemporaries that when MtCarren, who is now reputed to be 1 very wealthy, entered politics, he was a poor man.

Thr Georgia Senate has recently passed a bill disfranchising the negro, with only five dissenting votes. Inas much as Mils is practically a nullifi cation of the 15th amendment to the federal constitution, it would seem as if an appeal might lie made from the terms of such a state law to the Su preme Court of the United States. Candidate Whitney of Massachu setts would sacrifice our protective tariff in order to secure “an enlarged market for American products." He evidently overlooks the fact that to day, under the Dinghy tariff law, the United States is the leading export na tion of the'World, being ahead in this respect of both England and Germany which formerly led it by a large mar gin. t t 1 a f t j J I

Undoubtedly this is a conservative statement of the facts. 1 but it serves.to emphasize anew the i extent to which the country is de pendent for its prosperity upon its agricultural interests. Senator-elect Joseph F.

Exactly inn years ago today. August 3 7, 1807, the first steamboat made its first voyage. The craft was the Cler mont, built by an American genius, Itobert Fulton, and its trial trip was f upon the Hudson river. It is an in teresting coincidence that the cen tennial of steam navigation falls dur ing the same week that Bath is cele brating the 300th anniversary of the 1 birth of American shipbuilding. The centenary of the Clermont’s first voy age is being only modestly observed, but the real celebration of the Tevent will take place two years hence, when the 300th anniversary of Henry Hud son's memorable voyage up the river which bears his name, and the 100th anniversary of the grant of the Hud son river steamboat monopoly to Ful ton, will be marked by ceremonies be fitting such important landmarks in history. Itobert Fulton was a native of Pennsylvania and was about 43 years of age when the Clermont was buil*, in 1807. He had constructed a small boat four years before in France where he went in 1794, and the ex perimental trips on the same were en tirely successful. But the French people treated him coldly, and he re turned to the United States in 1806. The Clermont’s first trip was, natur ally, a great event for New York. It was generally Known that a boat to navigate the Hudson from New York to Albany was being built, but the skeptics outnumbered the believers a hundred to one. There was a feeling f antagonism to the idea among those most interested. Shippers, sailors and skippers united in the belief that no good could come of the invention—if it should be successful. This feeling crystalized into animosity as the ves sel neareil completion, and the day of tile trial trip was regarded with some apprehension by Fulton and his as sociates. But every feeling of concern vanished when, the word having been given to start the engines, the paddle wheels began to revolve slowly, and the Clermont moved away from her wharf, gradually reaching a speed of nearly five miles an hour, depsite an opposing tide. The cheers that burst from the throngs upon the shore were proof conclusive that the people had recognized the dawning of a new epoch in American commercial history. Until navigation closed in the fall of 1807 the Clermont ran on a regular schedule up and down the river, carry ing from 40 to 100 passengers, and a considerable amount of freight on each trip. During the following winter changes were made in the vessel, and when she resumed her trip in the spring she had been rechristened the North River. Fulton designed and built a second vessel for use on tho Hudson in ISU. This was known as the Paragon, and ran for nine years between New York and Albany. Ful- j ton arid Chancellor Livingston were granted the monopoly of the Hudson

river trade in 1909, and a rival boat named the Hope, launched in 1811, was forced to abandon her trips by law. Fulton also built a curious steam war vessel called the Demolgos in 1811. There was one paddle wheel in the cen- ter, the boat being constructed in longitudinal halves, with the boiler on one side and the engine on the other. The difference between the Clermont and the great steam craft of today may easily be imagined. The Cler mont was of wood, 133 feet long. Is feet beam and with a hold of feet. The paddle-wheels, which were on the sides and unprotected, were IS feet In diameter. Rut she was the beginning of steam navigation and from her has been developed the great 20,000 ton bat tle-ships and such ocean liners as the new Adriatic, 730 feet long, carrying 3.000 persons as against the Cler mont's 100, easily going IP miles an hour as against the Clermont’s five and with engines 100 times as power ful as those of Fulton’s boat. Fulton was educated as an artist and as a youth studied in England for several years under the great Benjamin West. He so _ Maine Gossip An Old Home.

Portland needs more hotels. One landlord tells an Express reporter that the hotels will be confronted with a difficult problem in supplying ac commodations for the members of the American and International Ear As sociations who will be in the city the latter part of the month. He said that those of the associations who have not already engaged rooms will find it al most impossible to secure them now. Imagine the blushes of the young people most directly interested in the following item which appears in the Greenwood correspondence of one of our weekly exchanges: “Ernest Brooks is at work at his old job in Yarmouth again this sunAner, and the other day lie visited his parents, taking along a lady, supposed to be his best girl, with him. Well. Ernest is a man of good habits, now getting along towards 30, and old enough to know what the mar riage contract means."

Speaking of it from a literary standpoint the unprejudiced editor of the Oxford Democrat says, “No one would he j guiltv of calling the book a novel, and rhetorically, grammatically and typo graphically it is an incoherent night mare.” Janitor Robert Bowkor of the Ta ciinii'’t clubhouse in Winslow started the year with an attempt to raise 3.000 roses on the big bush which has been his -are for several years. The last rose was plucked Sunday. A careful count has been kept of the roses which have been taken from the bush with the knowledge and consent of the janitor and they figure up to 1,821 and it is be- lieved that enough roses have been taken by people passing in the night to have made the grand total at least 2,000.

Maine Summer Resorts. (York Transcript.) The sweltering weather of the past two weeks which lias been especially severe in the large cities of the At lantic sea hoard, -lias had its natural result in vastly increasing the tide of humanity which Hows in varying vol ume to the cool breezes of the sea shore. Maine is indeed fortunate in having such manifold attractions in the vaca tion line to offer the heat-weary trav eler, ana it is no wonder that the Pine Tree State js becoming known as the playground of the nation. No other state can offer an equal diversity of scenic and natural favors. The splen did beaches of Yf rk, Popham and Old Orchard; the jagged, majestic cliffs of High Pastures. Pemaquid and Orand Marian; tiie marvelous wooded islands of Casco and Penobscot Bays; the superb Penobscot and Kennebec rivers and the beautiful Moosehead and Kangeb y lakes, and innumerable oth er resorts of equally irresistible attrac tion; all these are in a class far be yond anything of the kind which can be boasted by any other state. 'Clio people of Maine are but begin ning to realize the value of this enor mous resort industry, which is as yet but in its infancy. The residents of the State have a cordial welcome for the summer people and do all in their power to make their stay a pleasant one. Indeed to do otherwise would be but killing the goos«- that lays the golden eggs, as it were, for trade is stimulated in many ways by the pres ence of the summer visitor, and year ly the State feels more and more the financial results of the influx, which benefits the entire army of labor. The Week After. (Bath Independent.) In another week Bath can settle down again and think of something besides celebrations. Then it will be well to give some attention to plans for the new hospital, the new ath letic field, the proposed boulevard and to see if the school for manual training, as provided in the will of the late Lucinda Bailey is to become a reality. VOICES OF THE PRESS. Reforms in Georgia. (Indianapolis News.) Georgia is having all kinds of a time. The prohibition law has been passed. A law for a property and educational suffrage test has also passed the Sen ate. and will pass the House. This will practically disfranchise the ne groes. At the same time there is re ported to be a general feeling in the State that the prohibition measure will go far toward solving the race problem. Grateful England. (Brooklyn Standard Union.) The British Parliament is never un grateful to the heroic Englishmen who serve England well. Look at the sala ries and pensions India and Egypt arc kindly permitted to pay them. It Wasn’t Milk. (Philadelphia Press.) Tie're is a milk famine in Milwaukee, but it does not cause any excitement. Milk is not the thing that made Mil waukee famous. Where is “Old Sumptuary.” (Washington Post.) Not many decades ago there was a period of long duration in which “Old Sumptuary” held his place, as if by divine right, in every properly con structed Democratic platform. In those good old days our Democratic friends did heartily detest and vigorously denounce “sumptuary legis lation" in all their authentic declara tions of doctrine. A Democratic plat form that diil not contain an anti sumptuary plank would have been promptly referred back to the com mittee on resolutions. Other planks might he skipped by the brethren as they looked over the press reports, but not one of them failed to give a shaip look for “Old Sumptuary.” Finding him on guix/d, they felt that all was well. PERSONAL NOTES Mrs. Isaac L. Rich, the leader of the crusade to suppress unnecessary noises in cities, has gone abroad to visit the various cities and sec what methods are used there for the obtaining of municipal silence. Walter F. Frear, the new governor of Hawaii, though born in California, began his education in Honolulu and spent most of his life there. Beside being an eminent lawyer he is a writer of verse and prose. Secretary Taft hopes to spend sev eral days in Yellowstone National Park on his coming Western trip, if the ar rangements he has made are carried out. Ho will go into the Park at what is known as the Montana entrance af ter leaving Denver where he expects to make a speech on August SO, and will leave the Park in time to meet his engagement to speak at Portland, Ore., September 6.

Austria has passed a law by which its citizens are not only given a vnte but are compelled under penalty to use it. Some 40.000 are to fre jjalled up and lined for neglecting their duty. This is a revival of the exquisite simplicity of the Athenian legislators, who literally roped in the citizens with a reddened rope. The man who had a-< red mark on him was fined. Some such simple device might be Of use in our own beloved country, where so many of us do not take the trouble to exercise our belovgTprivileges. If the man who refrains «fmni voting wersj fined we should at ICast be spared till spectacle of voters being bribed to to the poll by the promise, of a fr ride in a private motor car;—Bonds Chronicle.

Partridge’s drug store now Willis R. Partridge, and had been cured of a lame and aching back. The pains had been so bad at times that I was actually compelled to lean against something for support. It was not the first time I had boon attacked in this way but it was the first time I ever used Doan’s Kidney Pills. I can say that I never before used a remedy that gave me such quick and 'astlng relief.

THE BABY’S FOOD Proper Selection Means Good Health and Vigorous Growth. Artificial feeding of infants requires great care. The selection of the prop er food means good health and vigor ous growth, while the use of con densed milk or undiluted cow’s milk, or of any other improper food leads to indigestion, loss of llesh, and inabiliay to resist disease. No artificial food should be usiol that contains drugs or chemicals, and this is one of the resinous why Just food has reared so ffiany babies suc cessfully in the past and is today prescribed by the majority of physi cians, for it is the only cereal food that is absolutely free front chemicals and drugs.

WOMEN PAY MORE. Why Insurance Companies Discrimi nate Against the Gentle Sex. Medical examiners of insurance companies say that the reason a woman pays more for the privilege of insurance than a man, is from the fact that women more readily fall victims to indigestion and stomach troubles and the fatal ailments that spring from these causes. All persons, they say, who have a weakened digestive system and suffer from sick headache, dizzy spells, dis tress after eating, specks before the eyes, bloating, nervousness, sleepless ness, and the many other symptoms of indigestion, soon lower the tone of the whole system and are most sus ceptible to a fatal illness. For curative power in all stomach troubles, nothing else is as sal*, ygt effective, nothing else can be« tlwi ouglily relied upon to relieve all trou bles from indigestion as Ml-o^ha. It is unlike any remedy heretofore known and is really one of the valuable dis coveries in modern medical science. It is not the acute attacks that in fluence the insurance examiners alone, but the consint feelings of weakness, headaches, indigestion and stomach troubles—these things, physicians say, kill more people than many more seri ous diseases. To escape this condition of ill health, to enjoy one’s food and yet never suffer with indigestion, a person should use Mi-o-na stomach tablets. They are not a mere digestive tablet, but strengthen and restore to natural action the stomach and bowels and effect a complete cure in even the worst forth of stomach troubles.

The day was not all that could be de sired. for although there was a good wind blowing from the south the skies were cloudy and threatening, and this doubtless kept many people away who would otherwise have gone to the lake to witness the race. A shower coming up about 2 o’clock delayed the start somewhat, but at 2 o'clock five boats were ready for the signal. The first boat to cross the line was the Dirigo, owned by Melville .Smith and sailed by llalph W. Smith, and this position was held through the rare. Toward the end of the race the wind died down somewhat and cut olf several minutes in the time. Neverthe less the Dirigo proved herself a very seaworthy boat and finished the race a winn.r.

Fight witnesses were examined, among them being the conductor and engineer of the extra freight train by whose crew th^'remains were discov ered, and also the engineer of train No. S. the Pullman going west from Au gusta at 3 A. M.. but nothing wa brought out in the testimon win h could throw any light upon the con ditions surrounding the death of t'e unfortunate man or show hy what train lie was struck. Tli«* hearing i tiniied about two and one-half hour.-, at tlie end of which time the jury ren dered the following verdict: “That said Frank P. McGuire of Ma chias, in the county of Washington and State aforesaid, eommorant at the time of his decease in said Augusta, came to his death by accident, being struck and killed by one of the trains run and operated by the Maine Cen tral Railroad Co., coming from Wa terville to Augusta between the hours of 12 o’clock, midnight, and 6 o’clock and twegty minutes on the morning of August 4th, 1007; your said jurors are not clear*as to which of the down river trains from Watorvillc to Au gusta struck said McGuire, but feel that said McGuire was struck by one of said trains and so find as above.
