THE GO FLOOD Continues to Pour Onto Shores of United States. Europe Hates to See It Go amt Raises (lie Discount Hates. Total Importations to This Country $40,425,000. -''e" \‘>rk. Nov. 7.—The contest of the European money markets to retain, their gold resources was indicated by the simultaneous action of today of three ..f the large central banks of Europe and a call for a meeting to morrow of the governing board of ui fourth. The Rank of England ad vanced its rate of discount from (I to 7 P4 per cent. The National Hank of Belgium advanced its rate of discount from 3 Vi per cent, to C pep emit., and Dr. Koch, the governor of tin Imperial Bank of Oennanv called a meeting of the governing board for tomorrow which is expected to advance the discount rate of the bank from t to 7 per cent. These movements in Europe are regarded as an indication of the ability of New York to command gold and the efforts of the European banks to protect themselves against this demand. Even these high discount rates, how ever. are regarded as insufficient to pre vent the further importation of gold into this country, in view of the large credits which are being created by the shipment of wheat and cotton. The hisu rate fixed by the English bank is not expected to entirely arrest exports from London to New York, but is counted upon in London to equalize the distribution of the yellow metal among European .money centers so as to offset losses to America, by imports of gold from other places. The fact that the Rank of France had advanced its rate although to only 4 per cent., is considered a recognition of the severi ty of the pressure upon the bank's great gold resources. This action is of special significance because it is the consistent policy of the Bank of France to afford commerce the benefit of a low and uniform rate of discount and to. even buy gold at a loss unless condi tions in the international market make if necessary to protect reserve. The stock market reflected the pres sure for money by considerable de clit cs today, but these declines were generally expected by bankers who looked upon the rapid advance in quo tations of yesterday as hardly justi fied by the situation. There is a strong determination among the conservative brol ers that there i^iall not be a large speculation for the rise at the present, time. The engagements of gold today brought up tiie total importation on ttie present movement to $40,423,000. an. amount which would permit a loan ex pansion of mere than $130,000,000 If the legal reserves had not been already im paired. Tiie situation in regard to the trust companies is gradually becoming nor mal. The committee of trust company presidents is satisfied that their assets are ample to meet all of their obliga tions anti will give them all the aid re quited in case demands on them should continue. Rians for regaining their old volume of business are under discus sion but will require sonic time for def inite conclusions.

His clothes are mostly of English pattern, though in the quiet of his family he dons the Japanese robe and sandals. He wears white linen shirts and starched collars, and cats at a table such as ours, having most of his food cooked European style, using a silver fork and a Mhetlleut knife. Though a monarch of an Oriental race, descended in a direct line from l.r.ftO years of Japanese rulers. Matsuhito has tin' general appearance of an American gentleman, both in manners and dress. The walled and moated park surrounding the White House of Japan is thrown open to the public. The palace itself is reconstructed on modern lines, is full of large rooms, and is furnished with modern furni ture. Yet, despite all the evidences of modernity, Matsuhito is a man of mystery. He is the incarnation of the Oivine Reing, “heaven descended. Divine and sacred. His hallowed throne was established at the time when the heavens and earth separated. He is pre-eminent above all his sub jeets. The law has no power to hold him accountable to it"—Town and Country. GOVERNOR WITH A HEART. What Is Said in Tennessee When Par dons Are Granted. ‘‘•Ham’ Patterson’s heart!” This has been a familiar exclamation in Tennes see since the present governor assumed direction of the State's affairs. It origi nated in derision with his enemies, and was spoken with a sneer hv them whenever ;t fresii pardon received the executive signature. Hut. like certain historical terms, such as “Rebel” and “Roundhead.” applied in contempt by enemies, it has been accepted by tbe friends of Gov. Patterson, and they tie- I clare their readiness to blazon it on his banner in the approaching campaign' and go beefore the people on the issue of ‘Ham’ Patterson's heart." Gov. Patterson has used the pardon ing power freely since the pen was placed in his hand. He has pardoned some noted murderers and "crooks,” and in some oases undoubtedly deserves' some measure of the censure he has received from a hostile press and from his political enemies. He has al- j ways accompanied the pardon with a reason for his action.

Before the boys were liberated from the prison they were brought before the governor. who spoke to them feel ingly and sympathetically of their past offences, and gave them wholesome ad vice as to their futures lives. The boys were visible mov* d by the governor's words and each promised that lie should never icgrct his chimney.— Nashville (Tenn.> Dispatch to New York Tribune. Sculptor’s African Fad. Herbert Ward, the Knglish sculptor, who has his studio in Paris, devotes himself chiefly to modeling negro men and women, lie lias made statues from African natives of every race, from "Da homey to tile Sudan and from the (’un go to Jtululand. lies ides, he has formed a eolleetion of art works produced by negroes. Some he has acquired himself in his travels in Africa; many have been given to him by explorers, notably by Stanley, whom he once accompanied part of the way on one of his African expeditions. A feature of the collection is the iron work, chiefly weapons. There are lance heads, arrows, hattleaxes and stars with sharp points in all directions to he hurled it enemies. The forms ol all the weapons are artistic. They are beautifully modeled on sharp-pointed leaves and grasses, the beaks of birds and the claws of animals. So closely are the outlines followed that the sculptor says a person ac quainted with the flora and fauna of the country can name the pattern on which each blade was outlined. The daggers are usually shaped like the lotus leaf. Another curious object is the African drum found with many tribes. It is hollowed out of a log. the two ends being preserved, and its peculiarity is that it gives out different tones, ac cording to the place where it is struck. There are also iron castanets, which nr» capable of producing a deafening rattle. Then there are the articles of adorn ment—male and female—nose and ear rintrs of Conner, iron and even precious metals; bracelets, necklaces and ank lets of human teeth strung like beads. War trumpets are made from ele phants’ tusks more or less fancifully carved —New York Sun. finding on book covers is done by means of engraved brass or electro- typed patterns, heated and pressed over the gold leaf, which is fixed by an albuminous size—white of eggs. am New Lead Pencil.

All the teams are anxious for dry j fields tomorrow. Sukeforth, one of the best players on the Bridgton Academy eleven, broke his arm in a recent practice game. Bowdoin and Bates have never yet played a tie game. Tomorrow’s game j will be their loth. Of the 14 games i already played Bowdoin lias won nine and Bates five. Hebron and Portland High ought to have a game. Each has shown its superiority in its own class and a game between them would be worth seeln,;, though all the odds would be on Hebron. When Coburn Classical institute gave up football a year ago there was, talk that it would substitute the j Canadian game and a beginning was; made toward this end. Nothing has, been heard, however, of the project this fall. For the past two years Colby has failed to score on U. of M. and that is one reason why the Waterville boys will have blood in their eyes when they hoard the train for Orono tomorrow. Last year U. of M. won by the score of 8 to fi and in 190."> by the score of 10 to 0. They miss the annual Lewiston Auburn game in those two cities. It was for years a contest arousing fully us much interest as the college games and a lot more fighting blood. But the Lewiston school authorities put an end to it and neither last year nor this year has Lewiston High been allowed to put an eleven in the field. Auburn had a strong team last year, winning six 1 straight games, but has badly fallen off this year. The Bates boys not only have the inspiring and enthusiastic support of the Bates girls in their athletic con- tests, but it appears that they have; other feminine sympathy which is not to be sneezed at. Clara Turner, who j is playing in repertoire at the Empire i Theatre. Lewiston, this week is a great j lover of sports and of course is rooting j hard for the lfr>me team. In a talk to I Iter audience between the acts of a matinee, this week, she said. "I hope Bates will win from Bowdoin next Saturday and that a big delegation of students with the college band will come here in the evening to celebrate the event. And if it was possible for me to do so, I would surely attend the great contest and cheer Bates on to victory.” The announcement was re ceived with loud and prolonged ap plause. It will be remembered that Schumacher, Bates’ captain and star tackle, created a sensation during the Saturday night engagement of Miss Turner in Lewiston last year, by step- ping from his box to the stage and kissing the little actress. It is true she dared him to in the course of a song she was singing, but the college I faculty refused to consider that when i they gave him a scolding for the in-1 oident. Burton, Bowdoin's substitute quarter- i back, is a notable instance of the all round college man. Ho is now a junior I and this is his first year in football, j but no undergraduate at Brunswick j has earned more college honors. He; stands at the herfd of a large class in l scholarship and last spring was awarded the $300 prize for excellence J in mathematics for the first two years of his course. In his freshman year no won the French prize. He is editor-in- J chief of the Bugle, the college annual, and is on the staff of the Orient, the college weekly. He is one of the officers of the Y. M. C. A. and is a leading member of the Dramatic club. He is also prominent in the fraternity life of the college. He has been a member of the track team for two years and last June was tied with a college mate for lirst place in the pole vault at the Maine meet at Waterville. Although he never touched a football until this season he has made good in this, as he does in everything he under takes, for he has in abundant measure those sterling qualities which deserve and command success. Burton's home i is in West Newton, Mass., and he is the son of Alfred K. Burton, Bowdoin.1 ’7S, for many years the dean of the j Massachusetts Institute of Technology, j The ignominious football record thisj fall of Cony High school of Augusta is hardly in keeping with the early tradi tins of the school in this branch or athletics. Cony High was the first preparatory school in Maine to have a football eleven. That was in 1889 and the movement was chiefly the result of the enthm ia 11 B. Webster, who graduated school in 1893 and later from Harvard and is now a successful business man on Hie Pacific coast. No games were played that fall, in fact, football then had no standing anywhere in Maine except at Bowdoin College. In the following fall. 1S90, a game was played with the Bowdoin Freshman eleven, and although Cony High was buried underneath a score of SO to 0 the Augusta boys did not get discouraged. That was ’he first game j ever played in Augusta or in this county. In those early days the linesmen stood up straight and the crisscross was a trick play warranted to fool the defense 99 times out of 100. In 1891 a few other schools took up the I game and an interscholastic league was formed. The Cony High eleven, led by Capt. Webster, vanquished all rivals and in the closing game of the series defeated Brunswick High 30 to 13 and won the proud title of in terscholastic champions of Maine, in that same fall the team went to Water ville and defeated the Colby eleven 14 I to 0. That was the first year Colby had taken up the sport and this was its first game. The Colby eleven was led by Robinson, tin Englishman who I had played the English game but knew j very little of the American game. A picture of this champion Cony High I eleven of 1891 has since hung in the school building though the pupils of today probably recognize none of the faces and know little of the glory gained by the team. Members of this eleven afterward played on the elevens i at Harvard, Cornell. Bowdoin and II»\ s H^s* Kjm! THE4?0PEDARENA. Amateur Events at Boston Develop New Talent.

T.—Baulins' Hurley of Passaic, X. .1 hail a shade on Rouse O'Brien of Host mi at Ihe -nil of six rounds in the main limit at the Sharkey •V Wednesday night. O'Brien, tired from his hard bout Tuesday night, was willing all the way, hut lie didn't have strength enough to overcome the lead gained by Hurley in the second, third and fourth rounds. The fighters went so fast that they were signed for next week's stag at. the Sharkey Club. George llocy outpoint'd Young Sul livan in the six-round .semi-windup. Frank O'Brien knocked out Voting West in two rounds: Griff Jones heat Joe Blank in four rounds: Dick Grant outclassed Jtrome Healey in three rounds, and George Kitson and Young Lee fought a four-round draw.

Jack Morgan, who knocked out Russ Van Horn in a round one evening last week, at Ft. Wayne. Ind.. Thanksgiving day, and on Dec. 12 or 14. Papke will meet Hugo Kelley at Milwaukee for the middle weight championship of America. Papke is now in good shape and he expects to win easily Saturday night. The hard hitting middleweight has had several offers to meet colored men, but he positively refuses to take any of them and he emphatically draws the line on them. LOUGHLEY FORCES FIGHT. Has Better cf Eddie Carter All the Way at Philadelphia. Philadelphia. Xov. 7.—The main bout at the weekly show of the Wayne Ath letic Club last night brought together Kddie Carter and Young Loughley and for six rounds Loughley was the ag gressor from the start, hut Carter managed to lteep hint off in the early part of the light. Loughley continued his rushing tactics anil when Carter tired and slowed up in his defence, Loughle.v forced the pace and had enough the better of the bout lit the linish to be deserving of a decision, had one been rendered. BOXING NOTES. Pacltie McFarland was 19 last week. Hilly McCarney plans taking I’nk Russell and Willie Fitzgerald to the coast. Billy McCarney is planning to take Wil lie Fitzgerald and Unit Russell to the pacific coast. Walter Stanton and Johnny Carroll have been matched to box in Ne.w York Tuesday night.

George Alemsie has saved enough in the past year to purchase a cottage In I.os Angeles, and is now permanently located in the Angel City. South Bend, Ind., is to be thrown open to boxing. The town is handy to Chicago, and is in line for big bouts, unless Gov. Hanley prevents them. Frank Man tell, the Pawtucket boxer who defeated llonc-y Mellodv, will in a few weeks go to California, where he ex pects to get a bout with Alike (Twin) Sul livan. The challenge of Bobby Tickle to •Timmy Walsh is businesslike. The weight named is llA pounds, ringside, which, however, may be too light for Walsh. Freddie Weeks, who was whipped by Altell last week, had a second run of hard link at Goldlield, Nov., where thief entered his loom and carried off a lot of valuables. Billv Papke will be busv during the next month. He has five matches on hand, as follows: Pat O'Keefe at the National I Saturday night: Tony Capnni at Peoria, 111., Nov. ]4; WiMie Lewis at New York Nov. 20: Jack Aiorgnn at Fort Wayne, Ind., Nov. 2*. and Hugo Kelly at Alil vaukee Pec. 12 or 14. “Cyclone."

East fail when baseball was a thing of the rasf Fielder Jones happened to lie on it visit o the hustling little town or Binghamton, and while there be met Evers, who was also visiting some triends in that neighborhood. Acting on a suggestion made by Jones, little Evers accompanied that great player in a stroll, and while they v, ere walking down the street it was noticed that a lot of the passersby turned to look after the two spiked shoe lads. Just about this time there had hepn a lot of revival services in Binghamton, and in consequence exhortcrs had been coming and going for the past couple of weeks, and when Fielder saw- so many people looking at himself and Evers he turned to that gallant little seeond-sacker and said: "I wonder, Johnny, what makes those fellows all rubber at us so?" "T think it’s because they imagine that we are some of those church speakers who have been holding forth here,” replied Evers. “Great Scott, they gave me a scare," cried Jones with a well-feigned expres sion of fright on his countenance; “I thought they might have sized us up to l;e a pair of baseball players.” I SHOULD BE CHANGED. Method of Scoring Errors Dfebldedly Unfair to Players. Should the error column in baseball be abolished? Many intelligent and observant Players and fans believe that it should I be. Abolishing the error column would have an excellent effect on that large j class of players who sidestep the des perate fielding chances for fear of get ting into the error column," says the Cleveland Press. "It isn’t difficult at all to call in mind the names of a score of players whose work would be immeasurably improved if there were no error col umn to fear.

INTERVIEW WITH BARON HAYASHL Trouble Between United States And Japan Easily Settled. Immigration Most Serious Point -Talk nf War Simply Bosh. Toltio.' Xnv 7.—The official il n* f tong consistently maintained by Japan mi tin; subject of the relations of tie niter; States and Japan in connection with the persistent reports of friction, w IS broken today by an Associated press interview with Minister of Foreign Affairs Hayashi. He prefaced his statement b.v ex pressing the hope that a sincere pro nouncement by the foreign minister of Japan and its publication through The Associated Press would pre-vent fur- j thcr misrepresentation and finally re- i suit in discrediting those who are con- I stnhtly circulating false and harmful reports, fie spoke not only as a foreign j minister, but as representing the semi- meltt of the entire cabinet and the pub- lie; 3fblister Hayashi then said th-t tie relations hgtVeen Japan and Ameri- i were as smooth, and cordial as evi r j and the canSseof civilization as u il as commtihity of interest detnan led (their las-ting" peace and friendship.

Th“ foreign minister believes that Japan will be able to solve the qnes- I tion in ihU manner, it requiring only r.alienee of the people of both countries. One tldng certain is that the Japanese government i- not so.i.dtons for the immigration ..f its p.-oplt into an; country During tin inb-t Minis', r Hay to hi said: “The onlv* thing causing .1 ml.r in the j mind of the public hero is 111*■ immigra tion question, hut far from being unduly exercised the people of Japan are satis fied to rest the case, in full confidence j that it will l.c adjusted in a manner worthy of both nations by the fair minded people of America, who have earned the name l»y a pre-eminently just and liberal policy in the extreme East during the last half century. According to reports from various sources dealing with what is called the Japanese situa tion. it appears certain that in a portion of the press of the United States, bent on representing an ultimate conflict with Japan as inevitable and in order appar ently to subserve this special purpose, events of trifling importance are magni- i fled into grave matters. Facts that can be explained easily are called Into ques tion on some far-fetched, impossible hy pothesis nwl the uninitiated public grad ualiv is ltd into the vague belief that the! relations of Japan and the United States are anything but smooth and cordial.

The extent to which the money market was affected was a disappointment to those who had looked for prompt relaxation with tho last arrivals of sold.

No. 116 Practically Demolished by No. 450 at High Head, Bangor. Hangor, Me., Xov. 7.—A serious col lision between two Maine Central lo comotives took place at High Head Thursday morning, when numbers 41.0 and 116 came together on the same tiack. Locomotive IIS was practically demolished. The accident occurred early Thurs day morning as locomotive 470 was backing down from the roundhouse to the l nion station, preparatory to haul ing train S4, which is scheduled to leave this citv at 7 A. M. to Portland. It had not gone far when it collided with locomotive IIS which was going to the roundhouse on the same track. Neither engineer could bring his ma chine to a stop in time to prevent a catastrophe and number US was so badly wrecked by the force of the col lision that it will probably go out of commission for good and all. No. 4.',o was not badly damaged, and it is for tunate for it is one of the monster .lo comotives pur diased last spring by the Maine Central and is. one of the most valuable machines owned by the road. Owing to the accident, another en gine had to be sent out in piace of Xo. 47.0 and tiie morning train was de layed for 4o minutes while things were being straightened out.

Iiivli is already making for our shores, reaches its toll volume. A very spicy controversy between Ala-or Joyner of Atlanta. Georgia, and the lii\. I.'r I.. G Hroughton. is creat ing some excitement in Southern cir les. Mr, Hroughton charges the mayor with betting on the races. "As tt matter of fact,” he declares, "As ian! i has got no mayor.

Massachusetts Against Tariff Revision and Canadian Reciprocity. Henry M. Whitney, the democratic candidate, polled considerably less than half of Moran's vote of last year, his estimated vote being about 86,000. There was a great falling off in Mr. Whitney's vote in Boston, where his lead .over Thomas L. Hisgcn. indepen i donee league candidate, was less than 8000 Mr. Whitney suffered a severe slash ing in all of the great industrial centers of the state, where he anil his managers expected to poll a heavy vote because of his advocacy of immediate tariff revision and reciprocity with Canada.—-Boston Globe. This statement of fact shows that the intelligent wage workers very clearly recognize the fact that their interests would suffer very seriously if instead of using the products of their labor, tills country should make the mistake of using instead the products of the labor of Canada. The same clear appreciation of this fact that ap pealed so powerfully to the farmers and wage workers of Massachusetts would appeal with equal force to the farmers and wage workers of other Xew England States, if they were ever given ari opportunity to pass upon the same question at tiie polls. Most em phatically the farmers and wage workers of New England do not desire cither tariff revision or the free im portation of the products of Canadian farms and factories. They very much prefer to keep the great home market —tile finest in the world—for the products of American farms and American factories. The emphatic verdict against tariff revision and Canadian reciprocity pronounced at the polls by the in teliigent voters of Massachusetts will serve as a decided eye-opener on the subject of public opinion to certain gentlemen in other New England states who have labored under the sad delusion that there was a popular sentiment in favor of these policies. Both our farmers and our wage workers are well satisfied with the prosperous conditions that have pre vailed under the Dingley law and neither are desirous of making foreign farmers and manufacturers a gift of the great American market. A New System of Purifying Water. Thr i iiy of Philadelphia is install i:-i; a new system of purifying its taint ed v.ntir supply, tiie results of which v'ill In- watt hod with much inti rest by student i of sanitary science. I$y this syst-in electric iliscliarges are passed through air antin' d in tubes, chang ing the oxygen to ozone. The air is ticn ill iveti into a column of water at it-, has/-. As it rises through the standpipe containing the water the ozone seizes upon bacteria and nthet oi'vnic matter. uniting to form t-.ir h>n.'- aeid gas. which bubbles to the top and escapes The process is ex actly similar to burning coal, except t1 •;«t tin- combustion is p-rfect and tln-rc is n-i ash. I-'ooI water goes in tit liic top of the standpipe and a steady stream of pure water, clear as crystal, flows from the base of the I'il’i. The Chicago Tribune expresses the opinion that this system of purification is much better than boiling. It gives its reasons as follows: "Moiling expels the air and leaves the u. tii- Hat. as well as tainted by the boil. bacilli, which, though dead, re uiii'ti to spoil the taste. It is better ti.au filtering, lx—ause the best tiller cannot remove till impurities, and iii t rs rcouiie constant cleaning. An advantage appreciated by those who have to pay for the water is that the cost of the process is only $.;.5il for 1,000.00*1 gallons. Xot all the plant ne c issurv has b-en erected, but when it is 11mipleted Philadelphia will have one of tin fust water supplies in the world. The dirty water of the Schuylkill (.obtains 2.500,000 bacilli to twenty drops. After passing through tin- ozone process the number of bacilli i reduced to twenty-live or less. Only fme in 100.000 escapes. The process is so rapid that there will be no tumble in supplying 75,000,000 gallons a day." The Tribune further states that the same system can also lie applied, with equally good results, to the puririca tion of polluted atmospheres. *'ne of the ablest and most vigorous ti“u> paper supporters of reciprocity with Canada in the state of Massachu setts is the Springfield Republican. In the following editorial expression, how ever. it frankly admits that to Mr Whitney's advocacy of this policy was directly due his overwhelming down fall at the polls. It says: Ti e surprise of the day is the small ness of the Whitney or regular I>emu cr.itic vote and the magnitude of that given to Mr. Hisgen, candidate of the independence league. If Mr. Whitney h;t3. Every j person w ho smokes a i igar or cigarette I or who takes a “chew" of tobacco or a pinch of snuff, contributes to this rev CtUIC. Germany is the only country that im posts a lighter lax on manufactured tobacco than tin* I'idled States, its tax ijoij1only S rents a pound. England levies a tax on raw tobacco of 77 to S.5 cent.-; a j'outi'l according to the amount of moisture it contains. In France the government has a niuuoply of tobacco ami tlie tax is Mi cents a ponnii. Tito goveriimtnts of Italy. Spain. Austria anti Tiirko also have a tohaeco monop i oly a.,d impose heavy taxes. It is a great revenue producer tile world over ami, in tiiis country, a great wealth producer for tiio-n engaged in the Busi ness. The revenue of the British gov ernment from this source last year was ?w,:.iti4,c:m. and that of France from its monoplv v.as Sith,131,700. The Italian government derives three times as nmeh from its monopoly on tohaeco as it does from that on salt. In this coun try th>‘ inanufacturtrs of tobacco make much more out of it than tile Govern ment does by its tax. Tito enemies of the weed may say wliat they please, imt most people will feel like thanking it for coming to the rescue in a time of financial stress In this legat’d it stands with win at, corn, cotton, meats and other food stuffs.

Greely is contemplating organizing a squSTel iiuW to rid the. city of the squirrels which make their home in ^.incoln Par! which n ’arkfpn' __id which destroy the eggs of the s5ptjjblrd:\ Ten years ago Greely was the home of many linnets, wild canaries, mocking birds and rob ins. but only a few are seen nAv. and there are none left fh the trees in ti»e park because of depredate*1*® nf tlie squirrels.

At first it^fflf3 that the English sparrow had «rM away the other birds, but investiga tion proves that not even a sparrow s nest can l>e found. The placing of the tin collars from eight to ten inches wide around evorj tree not in tlie park was suggested for the protection of the birds, but tn 3 will prove no remedy, because of t e ability of the squirrels to spring from one tree top to another.

BOWDOIN COLLEGE NOTES. The New Science Courses.—The Long fellow Scholarship of $500. Brunswick, Me., Nov. 7.—(Special) The New courses in mechanical draw ing, descriptive geometry and surveying at Bowdoin have proved very popuiar, even more so than was at first expect ed. Twenty men are taking the course in mechanical drawing and descriptive geometry, and eight are taking survey ing which this year is only open to seniors. The courses were established so that mm who are going to follow up the sciences, may have the ad vantage?- of four years of liberal arts as a foundation for higher technical training. These courses also enable men to comrdete their studies in any i the leading technical schools of the country in two years. The instructor. Henry B. Hastings, is a graduate of Phillips Exeter academy and of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and received the degree of civil en gineer last June While at feclvnoIog\ Mr. Hastings held a numb* r of honor ary positions. He was president of the student civil engineering society, a member of the Banjo club, a member and manager of the golf team, vice president of the cooperative society and class day orator. He has taken all the mechanical drawing, descriptive geometry and surveying courses which, the Massachusetts Institute of Technol ogy offers. He was to return to Tech nology this fall as assistant in th» civil engineering department hut decid ed to accept the offer to corne to Bow doin instead. Mr. Hastings aims cover the same amount of t*r« und in his courses at Bowdoin as is covered in similar courses at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology at Cornell and at other leading technical institutions. Arrangements have been made whereby the authorities of tie* Massai husetts Institute of Technology have agreed to accept these courses at Bowdoin as the equivalent of similar courses at that institution so that a student having taken them at Bowdoin is able to com plete tli" entire* course of Technology in two years instead of lour. The work in surveying will on leveling, stadia work, and olam trianguiation. A t jon of land of about fifteen acres will be surveyed and a contour map show ing the topography will he mad** by eacn student. In descriptive geometry the work taken un will be nrthographi* projections of lines, planes and solids bounded by plane surfaces. Tim col lege board In ord* r to take care of the much larger proportion of students who will now take scientific courses, has ap pointed Mr Ralph B s* i i Bow iu *02 as insrr.i ir in Matiumiati«*s an 1 Physics. Whip* at Bowdoin Mr. St on won high prns.* in these lines and situ graduation his hern following nr. tins work at Harvard. These courros should increase very materiallv the number of students at Bowdoin for there have been many men before this time who would have gladlv come to Bowdoin if they could have got such a technical course but in lack it have gone else whei- The facnltv of powdoin college haw announced that tie* post-graduate scholarship given last June l>v the daughters of Tlenn Wadsworth Long fellow. ’27. enables them to offer a schol arship of during the present year and the next year following. Tie sehdWrShip wrM be open to a member of 190s this year and to a member of 1fM>9 'next war. The conditions of In vestment make it uncertain what thr amount of the scholarship \%ill be in succeeding years The conditions un der which tli m liolar**hip was grant* are as follows: *‘A graduate scholar ship that would enable a stink nr after graduation to pursue graduate work it some other college or abroad if eons:.! ered advisable. The work to be I »n» in English or general literature and th« liold to be as large* as possible. B* lh Lett res in wide sense. The studen* should s* e «.ne not merely pro ficient in some specialty or with rank but with ability in the subject and capable of profiting by the advanced work and developing in the best way.” The Bowdoin Hollege Athletic council which manages all the branches of ath letii s at the college has organized for the ensuing year as follows: Hhairmen.

Soup at $35 a Plate. Public interest lias recently been ex cited l.y a remarkable dinner patty given in London at wnich J4 people sat down and wliioli cost $15.00". Some high-class chefs who know the deepest mysteries of their business are inclined to say that this was really nothing, after all. The most expensive soup that can ho served is Chinese birds' nest soup which can hardly l»e done at less than $S» for a mod* rate plate of if for each uue«r. When the fish course is reached on the menu the most expensive n w*> si hie is the newest caviare, made from sterlet roe and not trom common dun geon. There are only one or two Lon don restaurants at which this rare deli cac v inav he obtained, and the charge lor if is i>er head.

Cooper's theory concerning the human stomach, which he claims to prove, with his new medicine, is being given more respect anil comment every day. Cooper claims that 90 per cent, of all ill health is due to stomach trouble. When interviewed about his theory re cently, lie said: “Stomach trouble is the great curse of the “nth century so far as tin* civilized races are con cerned. Practically all of the chronic ill health of this generation is caused by abnormal stomachic conditions. In earlier days, when tin* human race was closer to nature, and men and women worked all day out of doors, digging their frugal existence from the soil, the tired, droopy, half-sick people that are now so common, did not exist. “To be sure, there was sickness in those days, but it was of a virulent character, and only temporary. There was none of this half-sick condition ail the time with which so many arc afflicted nowadays. I know positively that every hit of this chronic ill health is caused by stomach trouble. The human stomach in civilized people today is degenerate. It lacks tone and strength. This weakness lias gradually come through a sedentary existence. I further know that few people can be sick with the digestive apparatus in perfect shape. The sole reason for my success is be cause nty New Discovery medicine tones tile stomach up to required strength in about six week's time. Tliat is why I have had more people eome and thank me wherever I have pine to ititroduce my niedieine, than I have had time to talk with.” Antons the immense numbers of peo ple who are now strong believers in Cooper's theory and medicine is Mrs. M. 10. Delano, a prominent resident of tin suburb of Brookline, Boston, Mass. She says: For several years 1 was broken in health, caused primarily by stomach and nerve troubles. 1 gradu ally became worse, until recently I was compelled to so without solid food for days at a time. 1 had sour stomach, palpitation of the nerves of stomach and heart, dyspepsia, and extreme ner vousness. I suffered terribly with in somnia, and my liver, bowels and whole system gradually became de ranged. 1 felt instant relief the first day 1 began this Cooper medicine. 1 now feel like a new being. Today 1 walked all over town, shopping— something 1 have not done for years. "1 make this statement wholly from a sense of duty. I feel I owe it to anyone who might find relief and renewed happiness as 1 have done.” The record made by the Cooper med icines is astonishing. We will taje pleasure in discussing it with anyone who wishes to know about them.— Bnwditch, Webster a Co. Under Cany House, Augusta W. D. Spaulding. Ha Howell, Beane's Corner Drug Siore (lardiner. Me. AN INTERESTING COLLECTION. Frank T. Noble Has Rare Exhibit of Tropical Butterflies—Some Remarka ble Beetles. Frank T. Noble of 16 Bewail street, otn* >'t Augusta's local naturalists, has placed on exhibition in the show window of Guy Vickery, tho jeweller, an exceedingly interesting and beautiful collection of tropical butterflies, gathered in Jamaica, Trini dad and the Barbadoes. and oil the north coast of South America during his trip last wint*r. The collection in cludes a large number of specimens, embracing a number of different families, and the brilliant colorings, as well as other characteristics peculiar only to butterflies found in the tropics, makes tin* collection as a whole an un usually handsome one. Among the specimens are Swallowtails. Dagger wings, Leopard spots Heliconians and several other varieties. All of these were taken by Air. Noble, himself, and mounted after his return home. The manner in which they are mounted is a great improve ment on the old method, which was to impale the insect on a pin and arrange in the drawers of a cabinet. By that method only one side of the specimen could he seen and as it is freijtienj sy the case that the under side of the wings are of a decidedly different coloring and pattern from the upper side, and oftentimes much more beautiful, half the beauty of the i butterfly was lost to view, j Finbr the new method of mounting each specimen is separately enclosed in a transparent mound, the wings resting on two short shelves of glass and over them is fitted another piece of glass, the full size of the ease, the bottom of which is fitted with another piece of glass, also of full size. This allows a free inspection of both sides of the specimen and materially augments the value of the collection, as none of the beamy on either side of the wings is lost. The specimens in the collection are of about every pattern and hue tit.it one could conceive. S uite of them are brilliantly colon d on the upper side of the wings, in three or more colors ruuniiix -M might across tin- wings, with one color gradually merging into another, while the tinder side is de cidedly different, both as to pattern anil coloring- As a rule the coloring on the upper side of the wings is less brilliant, but none tbe less beautiful the iMidi-s een t effect ef several of the specimens as they were placi d in tile sunlight by Air Noble for the benefit of the Journal scribe wait simply gorgeous in the ex treme. One very large butterfly, while not brilliant in coloring seemed to the scribe to be one of the star exhibits. The colorings tire in various shades of soft rich browns and form a combina tion which for richness and elegance it would seem difficult to equal. It must be seen, however to bo ap preciated, which remark will apply the whole collection. A matter of interesting curiosity j from on entomological standpoint, which is also shown in tile window is n collection of six of the celebrated saw booties from the island of Dominica, one of the smaller West Indies, the Leeward group. These ruge beetles belong to the elephantine class. They are big beetles, with an elongated proboscis three or four incites long on tin* male specimens, of which Air. Noble has two very large ones. The females have a head more like the ordinary June bug. except as to size, and do not have tin* proboscis which is a distinguishing characteristic of the male. Singular as it may appear these are found only in Dominica. The collec tion will be on view during the re mainder of the week and as it is wholly uni.[tic in tile way of a natural history exhibit for ibis section should be seen by all nature students and others who admire the beauties of nature.

With the final closure of the Colora do river, the great Salton sink, which was inundated as the result of a poor ly constructed headgate of an irriga tion canal and rapidly converted into an inland sea. will gradually dry up. Inasmuch as there, are practically no outlets for this vast body of water, the sink must naturally evaporate to dry ness.

For the sake of your personal wel fare, just think a moment about the proces-s of digesting food. There are certain secretions e.illPd gnstrir juices that net upon the food af!--r it is swallowed and change all tile nutrition in it into life-giving blood. Anything that interferes with the sorretion of these juices causes indi gestion and makes a chronic state of stomach weakness inevitable. From now on build up the strength and health of the stomach with j Mi-o-na tablets. You will soon find yourself strong and never know the meaning of indigestion. Half of the prescriptions the Au gusta doctors write are for troubles that result directly from a weakened stomach. Strengthen the stomach muscles, increase the secretion of gastric juices, and you will find that common afflictions—Indigestion, with its headaches, dizziness, depression of spirits, spots before the eyes, nervous ness, sleeplessness and general debility —-have been overcome. If Mi-o-na did not have an unusally curative effect in stomach disorders, it could not be sold on the guarantee given by Bowditch, Webster Co., to refund the mone.y unless It does all that ts claimed for it. They give an absolute, unqualified guarantee with every 50-eent box of Mi-o-na that the money will be refunded unless tho medicine cures. They take the whole risk, and you certainly can afford to get Mi-o-na from them on this plan. Sold and guaranteed In. Watervillo by Geo. W, Dorr, __. i _

A woman rook in France is known as a “cordon bleu." the title having come down from the days of Du Ba'iv and the profligate King- Louis. The king and his favorite one day had a discussion as to the relative ion its o? men and women cooks. The king contended that only a man could cook a disli tit for a king to eat. nnd Du Barry upheld the skill of her sex. The result was a dinner given }y Pd l- rrv. everv dish of wnirh had hern prepared by a woman. At the con clusion ot the meal tlie king acknowl edged be was wrong: he sent for tho cook and placed around her neck his own ribbon of the Order of the St. Esprit, known as the cordon bleu.

Newspaper Association Com! mine Give Him the Facts. Will Recommend Tariff Removal and an Investigation. Washington, Nov. 7.—President Roos evelt today indicated to members of the committee on paper. of the Amer ican Newspaper Publishers’ Associa tion, that lie will recommend to Congress the abolition of the tariff 'in press paper, wood pulp and the wood that goes into the manufacture of paper; also that lie will make a rec ommendation to the department of justice that it take immediate steps to ascertain whether the anti-trust laws are being disobeyed by the manu facturers (\f paper. The promise of the recommendations hy the President was obtained after lie laid listened to the representations of members of the committee and a petition from the national organisations of printers, stereotypers, pressmen and etchers, all of which set fortli the evi dence of a combination on the part of the manufacturers of paper for the pur pose of controlling the output, regulat ing and greatly increasing the price and otherwise making hindersome reg ulations governing? the source of sup ply and delivery of paper. The call upon the President was made in pursuance of resolutions adopted by the American Newspaper Publishers’ Association at a special meeting held in New York Sept- 19 last. These resolutions after declaring that infi rination indicated that “unlawful combinations of paper makers had boon organised recently” set fortli “that it is the sense of this meeting that the duty on printing paper, wood pulp and ab material entering the manu facture of printing paper should be immediately repealed.7 The committee v^hich called >n the President by appointment today includ ed John .Morris nf the New York Times; •Medill McCormick of the Chicago Trib une; Oforge Thompson of the Pt. Paul Dispatch; Delevan Smith of the indian unoiis News: John Eastman of the Chi cago Journal: Walter Page ol' World's Work; I)r. Albert Sliaw of the Review of "Reviews; K. J. Ridgway and the presidents of the National Organiza tion of the Allied Printing Trades. The facts which make up the pro test were presented by Mr. McCormick, after which the President indicated the action he would take. An investigation of the so-called Paper Trust has been in progress for some time by the department of justice tind it is understood the President will immediately call for the facts which have been ascertained up to the pres ent time. The appreciation of the association was expressed to the President at the action taken by the federal govern ment last year in ordering the disso lution of the General Paper Co. His attention was then called to what was termed a “Conspiracy” by which it was a'leged the makers of news print paper have arranged for an advance of $12 per ton upon the supply of that ar ticle for the current year, and for an additional advance next year averag ing $10 per ton. This, it was explained, means a burden imposed on the print h.g industry of the country of $12,000,144 for the present arid $19,000,000 for the coming year. The excuse for the advances on the Port of the paper makers is that the cost of wood and labor have increased. ri his excuse was met in the argument to tne President by the statement that tlie published report of the largest manufacturers of news print paper gives the increased eost of material and manufacture, including expense of administration and sales, as about 04 cents per ton. The President was told that the pres plan ef increasing the price of paper had its conception 12 years ago in a proposition to unite the paper mills in to one pool or corporation. The first step in tit” program, it was stated was «fl» a Don’t neglect indigestion. It is Nature’s dan ger signal. It warns you that you are not assimilating your food. It is tne fore runner of disease. Scott'* Emulsion is a partially digest ed food tne joint product of Nature and science. It builds up your digestion, a makes rich, red Y blood, and 9 makes you glow 9 with health. A Try it. JL ALL DRUCCISTSi V so*. AND S1.00. accomplished when the promoters in duced Congress to fix a tariff duty of $6 a ton on news print paper. It Is tills tariff, It Is understood, the Presi dent has promised to urge Congress to repeal. The next step which has en countered many delays, has, the Pres ident was told, ust been consummated by the erection of a combination tp ex haust the surplus stock of paper, to cause a paper famine and to raise pile’s. The President was further informed that alter the disbandment, by order of tin? court, of the General Paper Co., various meetings of Eastern and West ern nmnufaeturers have been held to stimulate prices and to limit the con trait period. A conference of Eastern manufacturers was' held in New York during the first week of September Iasi, when the last advance In prices was decided upon. Since that time manufacturers who had previously solicited the business of various newspapers, have withdrawn all quotations. Publishers who apply for quotations realize that in some In tangible way their supply has been predetermined, and the price they are to pay also arranged for them. In each case, the statement continued, the publisher finds that all bids but one are at a prohibitory price. He also finds i hat he has no remedy against the supply of inferior paper. Publishers who make inquiry of one mill find that the others have been advised of In quiry. Newsselling agencies, represent ing an aggregation of previously Inde pendent mills have merged the output of these mills. Tim source of supply of numerous news papers has been arbitrarily diverted from one mill to another without the consent of the publisher. Jobbers who apply to selling agents or to mills for quotations are forced to disclose the name of the customer and the purpose for which the paper Is to be used. When this disclos ure is made, jobbers find that satisfacto ry quotations can be obtained from but one mill in the country. Millmen and pa per salesmen have admitted that an agreed scale had been adopted. It was represented that Canadian mills can ami do pay the $6 per ton duty and still find it profitable to sell in the Unit ed States. At the same time the Amer ican mills are selling abroad in compe tition with Canada, Great Britain, Ger many and Norway. It was stated to the President that pa permalcers have made large profits during the past 10 years at prices averaging less than $40 per ton, and that a selling price of between $S5 and $60 per ton now pro posed would mean a daily tribute of $4">. C00 p:iid by the paper consumers to the alleged combination. Evidence is obtain able in government records, it was claim ed. that paper mills in the United States and Canada are making paper as a cost less than $2S per ton. It had been attempted, it was asserted, to showr that the cost of labor had great ly increased, but this was refuted by the statement that the entire cost of labor for the manufacture of a ton of paper amounted to less than $2.40. Not one twelfth of the advance in news print pa per, It was stated, would go to labor. The lack of progressive methods of manufacture by the International Paper Co., which furnishes the bulk of the pa per and fixes the price in the Eastern market, was pointed cut. Because of the export of er.oiyi tons of print paper during the past season and the claim of the man ufacturers that the domestic stock is practically exhausted, coupled with th" shutting down of the mills on various pre texts, leads the publishers to the belief that an attempt is being made to create a paper famine. Many newspaper pro prietors, it is claimed, are unable to ob tain any quotations for paper for next year, and do not know where to obtain supply. The President was told that in all his tory of crime charges against combines and trusts, such a situation is unprece dented. Both the policy of the paper manufac turers to acquire large tracts of timber land for which speculation, it is charged, the consumer of paper is obliged to pay, and the over-capitalization of the compa nies, were subjects of criticism. The committee on leaving the White House seemed highly gratified by the as surances from the President. Evidence, it was said, for the action of the depart ment of justice is being supplied and it Is believed that the methods of the so called paper combine may soon he tested in tiie courts. Dooley on Presidential Candidates. Doo,f‘y’s” views of the Presi i .tial candidates are in the July American Magazine. Taft. Foraker, Roosevelt. Beveridge, Root. Fairbanks and others come in for roasts. In gen eral “Mr. Dooley- sizes up the thing as follows: “I* 1>ooks me as though Teddy was thryin in a bunch iv green motormen to see whether they cud run th’ car th’ way he wants it run. He skipped Fair banks who niver dhrove annything be futv but a mule team. He cudden't stand f'r Foraker because he only Wanted to stop to let passengers on tit tli’ alleys. He thried Root but Root hauled up at ivry crossing. An’ now he’s trying out Taft. Look at tliim cornin’ up th’ street. Taft knows th’ brakes well but he ain’t very familyar with th’ power. ’Go ahead,’ says Ro senfelt. ‘Don't stop here. Pass that there banker by. He's on’y wan fare. There’s a crowd of people at th’ next corner. Stop f’r thim an* give thiin lime to get aboord. Now start th* car with a jump so they'll know something is goin’ on.

Well, niver mind: we may get her cornin’ back.’ An' so It goes an’ T can't tell an’ Teddy can’t tell yet whether Taft will make a good motorman or not. Sometimes it looks ns if they didn’t have the same idee. In his heart Taft still sticks to th’ old fashioned Yale theory that a throllev car is propelled be a brake, while Teddy's idee lv a brake Is that th’ best, thing about it Is the handle that ve can remove to subjoo rlochous passengers.

Prof. Allen Johnson of the chair of history at Bowdoin College, was in the city yesterday on matters of business, and returned to Brunswick on train 102 in the afternoon. L is expected that a game of football will be played today between the Soph omores and Freshmen of the High school. Many of the regular High school team are expected to participate in the game. The schooner Lizzie J. Call, which had been loading lumber at the mill of the Augusta Lumber Co., was towed dow a river by the tug Charlie Law rence yesterday afternoon, on her way to New York. The many friends of Leonard F.

Walter Savage, driver for Hoyt's ex press, is enjoying a vacation of two weeks and will put in the time among the big game in the Moosehead lake region. Word was received front him yesterday stating that he had got one deer and expected to get another be fore starting for home. That some of the huntsmen from other state are meeting- with fair suc cess in the Maine woods is evidenced by the shipments of venison going through Augusta on some of the trains hound for ihe west. Several deer passed through here yesterday after noon and late last night. Many of the cellars about town were badly flooded by the heavy rainfall of Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning and in one or two eases to such an extent that furanee fires were extinguished. The rain also forced a suspension of work on several of the new buildings in process of construc tion about the city. That Augusta people realize that cold weather is at hand is shown by the in crease >n the business of the local coal dealers during the past few days. A short time ago all that was necessary was to put in your order for coal and it would be delivered the sapie day. Now if it is delivered at any time within the next 24 hours the purchaser is lucky. Considerable coal is being brought to Augusta from Hallowell. The meeting of the Christian and Missionary Alliance will be held this afternoon and evening in the Gospel Mission rooms. The speakers will be Rev. Wm. Franklin just returned from India and Rev. Ira E. David of Brock ton, Mass., Miss Grace Allen, a blind girl, will sing. The afternoon service will he at 2.30 and the evening service at 7.30. All cordially invited. The f illing of the summer foliage from the trees about town has had one very pronounced effect. While the leaves were on the trees they shut off the view of a good many of the houses on the east side of the river, even the clock in the lofty tower of the Cony High school being concealed. Now most oi the residences on the other side of the river are plainly visible, as well as the City hospital and the High school clock. That section now ap pears to be much more populous than a summer visitor would suppose, unless In- had crossed the river and seen the houses at close range. The Williams Grammar school has a f witball team this season that will douotless be heard from before the sno-.v Hies.

M of this city, are awaiting the arrival of their .22 calibre ritles in order tliat they may begin their indoor rille practice at the armory. The requisition for the arms has been in for a week or more and it is expected that they will soon be forthcoming, after which time the practice will begin. The new rides are not many in number, the company receiving but two. and perhaps only one. and the only part of the ritle issued ti the company will be a barrel, which will be interchangeable with the barrels of the regulation cali ber. so that really the ride is the same as that with which the troops of the Guard are armed. The barrel will be fitted to one of the ritles and issued to the company. It is expected that Ma jor John J.

These pictures will continue today and tomorrow, there will be a change again Monday. Prescelle Coming Nov. 14, 15 and 16. The local theater goers will have one of the strongest attractions of the season at the Opera house Nov. 14. la and 16. and will no doubt be pleased over the return of the great Prescelle in Advanced Hypnotism and Mrs. Edna May Magoon. the only New Eng land born woman hypnotist before the public, and excellent vaudeville. Prescelle who is well known to Au gusta audiences, is a guarantee of something good. The reputation he made daring his engagement two weeks ago will be remembered. Capac ity audiences greeted this man of remarkable powers, and the verdict was unanimous that Prescelle was master of the arts and sciences, hyp notism and mental telepathy. Hyp notism. defined by Prescelle as the law of suggestion, will afford us unlimited fun of the uproarious kind, yet refined and moral. Prescelle makes a feature of scientific demon strations and illustrations for the benefit of those interested in the rap’Jtic value of suggestion, thus af fording the select or mixed audiences food for thought and amusements. Mental telepathy or transmission of thought, a subject which is interest ing research societies, is another of Pieseelle’s accomplishments. Each evening he will give a demonstration of the latest developments in the science. The finding of hidden arti cles and similar experiments are employed by way of illustration. The appearance of Mrs. Edna May Magoon will no doubt interest many, as it is very rare that a woman is seen in this capacity. Mrs. Magoon will appear at each performance and introduce numerous scenes of the comedy nature during the engage ment. The big musical act. the Knox Brothers and Helene are a very clever trio, offering all tlte latest comedy and classical stunts with vari ous musical instruments. Mr. George \V. Moulton will sing the latest successes in beautiful illustrated songs. The hit of the season are Prt scelle's moving pictures and up-to-date illus Tiiey are tin wonderful marvels of the age. They combine comedy, pathos and sensation in one grand trium phant exhibition. They tire beautiful pictures and illustrated songs. A new and mammoth exhibition of moving pictures presented with all the realism that scientific research and improved mechanism can produce. The twentieth century triumph in oving pictures and up-to-date illus trated songs. Wordless drama and funny comedy views with startling mechanical effects which st em mar velously realistic. Everything new. Don’t miss a good musical treat, a cyclone of fun and an unparalleled pro gram of jest, joy and jollity. Whistler’s Way of Working. Speaking a few days ago at Meeting held to complete the dot ails of a move ment for tho unction of a memorial to Whistler, loot'd ltedesdale gave a retnark ahle account of the artist’s methods of work. “One dav when lie was to begin a poitrait of a lady.” said Lord Kt.ies dale, **tlie painter took up his position at one end of the loom, with Ids sitter and canvas at the other. For a long time he stood looking at her. holding in his hand a huge brush full of color, such a brush as a man would use to whitewash, a house. Suddenly he ran forward and smashed the brush full of color onto the canvas. Then he ran hack, and forty or fifty times In* repeated this. At the end of that time there stood out on the can vas a space whit h exactly indicated the figure and the expression of his sitter.” This port!ait was to have belonged to Lord" ltedesdale, but through circum stances nothing less than tragic it never came into his possession. There were bailiffs in the house when it was finished. This was no novelty to Whistler. He on ly laughed, and laughing, made a circuit of Ins studio with a palette knit’c, delib erately destroying all th pictures ex rosed there. The portrait of tho lady was among them.—London Cor. Chicago Record-Herald. A monument l as been erected to Anna Hoz-. l, in the Soblossgarren. at .M int boiui, Germany.

The cargo consisted of 56n tons of coal consigned to the Peppertll Manufacturing Co. of Biddeford. Ic was valued at $2000 and the loss is covered by insurance. A large vessel supposed to be a five masted schooner was blown danger ously near the breakers on Capt Cod at P. M. She was warned by the life savers and did not touch bottom. Half an hour later she was reported close to the bar near the Highland station, but again escaped.

Neglect or improper treatment of woman's ills almost Inevitably leads to a train of unfortunate results and fre quently to a lifetime or misery. In time almost every organ of the body be comes affected, the nervous system is broken down, the digestion is weaken ed and symptoms of kidney trouble de velop. This was the experience of Mrs. J. Gleason, a well-known resident of Pen field, Monroe County, N. Y. "I had suffered for years with weakness which many women have,” she says, “and this in time led to nervous pros tration. I was often hysterical and would someetimes faint away two or three times a day. “My stomach became so weak that there was hardly a thing I could eat and keep down.There were heavy, lead en pains through my abdomen, I was troubled with gas and tnv stomach was so tender that it seemed raw. For two weeks 1 could not walk on account of weak kidneys and a lame back. “My heart jumped and occasionally skipped a beat. During the dreadful fainting spells I would have to be tak en out of doors. When I came to I would be weak and helpless for a long time. The least bit of noise upset my nerves and I was all the time imagin ing all sorts of impossible things. I bad severe headaches and was inched for two months. “I employed a doctor off and on for several weeks, but when 1 failed to get any better, 1 gave up taking his medi cine.

Wednesday's game shipments into Bangor amounted to 56 deer and sev en moose, not a bad record for the middle of the week. There was also a bear in the list of game brought down, udding another to the large number of bear for the season. An “Injun devil” scare was run to earth very quickly up in the town of Greenfield a short time ago. A couple of men working in one of Page's lum bering camps in that town were out hunting and saw a big ugly-looking an imal run along a log. Both hunters tired at the animal, which rolled over, got up and again disappeared behind a dead tree. The men looked about to see I what tiad become of the animal but could find no trace of it. The men returned to camp with a wildly exc iting story of a panther. They said the animal they shot had a tail about four ic-et long and its body was as big as a deer’s. The owner of the camp went out with another man and his dog ar.d went over the ground where the men said they had shot the supposed panther. The dog was not a great while in finding the body of the animal beneath a fallen tree. The animal was not an "Injun devil” but the next thing to it, on immense lynx. The lynx is a first cousin to the panther but a very differ ent animal. The Jvnx’s tail Is hardly a tail ai all, only a tuft of I'ur where a tail should grow, while the panther has a long supple tail like a house oat.

This village of Brixworth, from which I am dating a holiday letter, in terests sportsmen because the famous Pytchley hounds are kenneled in' it. and they ere well worth seeing when out with their keepers for an airing on the hills, and still more in the autumn when in full cry for cub hunting, for Northampton is one of the best of the hunting shires, with winter sport well organized and heartily supported by the great land owners. The village concerns antiquarians and students of architecture even more closely, for the strange church on the hill rivals in antiquity the one in Dover attached to the Roman phros; and while it lias undergone successive alterations, it is without doubt one of the oldest struc tures in the kingdom. At Brigstock there is another com posite church with a round projection added to the tower at Brixworth, and with suggestions of Roman methods in the interior arch and its crude decora tion and in the long and short work and horizontal and vertical strips of the walls. Sometimes the story of the ancient church is told with dramatic realism by the verger. At Rothwell he begins languidly, uncovering the brasses and pointing out the features of the jumole of styles, but when the entrance to the crypt under the south aisle is ap proched he is transformed into a weird and grotesque grave digger of Shake spearian quality. Bighting a candle for each follower, he leads the way into a subterranean chamber where thou sands of skulls and skeleton arms and legs are stacked up shoulder high with the precision and regularity of cord wood in a timber yard or linens on a draper's counters. No doubt “custom hath made it of him a property of easiness.” for he gossips as cheerfuly of the occupants of this bone crypt as the grave diggers in “Hamlet” over Adam's profession or Yorick's antics. He picks up a skull as carelessly as a cricket ball, and having proved that there Is no bullet hole and that there is evidence of a smashing blow with a club, tosses it lightly away as the relic of an ancient Briton age before Danish raiding or Naseby fight. Brandish ing an abnormally huge thigh bone, be argues soler..niy that there must have been giants in those days, and after playing idly with a string of vertebrae and clinking shoulder blades and skulls with his candlestick, he warns his auditors against cudgeling their brains needlessly and supplies them with a plausible theory that the monks In en larging the ancient shirne ran against a prehistoric burial ground and decent ly reinterred the bones of between 30. 000 and 40,000 warriors in a consecrated crypt. It is “crowner’s quest law,” delivered in sepulchral tones without a snatch of melody or stoop of liquor, but as a hit of cold realism it is as start ling as the grave diggers* saturnine humor beside Ophelia's grave, and the vistors with their tallow dips follow him out ot the charnel house—one of three in the kingdom—with a feeling that they will never have a stranger experience in Kngland.—Brixworth, (Eng.)

For there eater of Seven Feet of Nails. A scientist has estimated that in a lifetime of 70 years a man grows nails which, if it were possible to preserve them uncut, would reach the phe nomenal length of 7 feet 9 inches. Ex actly on what arguments this state ment is based it is hard to say. for a little observation will show that during the greater portion of a man's life he cuts his nails on an average once a week, and at each paring removes a sixteenth of an inch, or the equivalent of a quarter of an inch per month, working out at three inches in a year. This would give him a growth of seven feet six inches during the JO years he lives between 20 and 60. In the other 40 years, when the growth Ik leas rapid, he would certainly produce four of nails, so that eleven feet is a beti average for the nail-producingc of man. It should be. noted, howeyeg, thatth growth of the nails i is. in most people, those on the left, mpd the scientist in questidavj argument on the slower 'J left-hand nails. Another ouHoual is that the rate of growth of the depends directly on the length of th finger; thus, the nails on the two mid dle fingers of man grow more rapidly than those on the first and third fin ger respectively, and these in turn are more speedy in their growth than those on the little fingers. Again, nails ■'ripen'' quicker in summer than in winter, when the cold seems to render them harder.—Tit Bits. History of the Umbrella.
