PRICE TWO CENTH IN THE FOG. ..-i a Eastern Yacht Club Rests at Camden, Elena andShimnaOnly Win ners in Saturday’s Races. v T a 25-Mile Race tor Today in The Western Penobscot. Many Years Since Club Has Had So Many Drilling Malcbas. —r-.-1 Camden, Me.. July C. The first fog which an eastern Yacht *'11111 fleet^has encountered for f.iiir years, drifted in from Mori began shortly after "Col ors," today, but as there was no sport ing event on the program, it failed to discourage the yachtsmen. In fact, tin- mists gave the rating portion of the licet a chance for a well-earned rest after three days of light winds and calms and long, te dious hours off shore. Until the regatta committee report ed, today, it was generally believed that yesterday's run from Boothhn.v bad been a complete failure, because of the absence of a respectable breeze, but it appeared the schooner Klena and the sloop Sbinitna had managed to struggle across the finish line at dark and gained legs in the Commo dore and Whitehouse cups. Tlic committee then called off the race and lent the em rgies of its toy to getting the boats to a harbor, lot ting the rest of tiie racers take their own time at the hell buoy off White head, there being no time limit on the run. The schooner Vagrant, which did not race, yesterday, and the Dorello II, which gave up the contest, were towed here, lust evening, and, this morning, the tug appeared from down the bay with the Elena. Taormina uni Khimnia, The Pea Fox spent Fie night in Seal Harbor and some of the smaller boats were reported at Port Clyde anil at Tenants Harbor. The captains of the fleet assembled here, held a meeting on the flagship, this forenoon, and decided not to visit North Haven until after the race, to morrow, for the Plant and Maxwell cups, off this port. It is many years since the Eastern fleet has experienced such adverse conditions on the annual cruise. On the first day of the long run from Marblehead to Portland the wind was never over seven knots. On Friday, on the short run to iioothbay, it piped up to eight knots for a few minutes, but the stern bout finished in a drift. Yesterday, the heaviest breeze was not over three knots and for hour the racing portion of the fleet drifted about in the long swell off Monhegan island with no breeze at all. "We hope to speed up those atmospheric blowers, tomorrow,” remarked Com modore Paine, today, "and give the boats some genuine sport.” The race, tomorrow.

Listen to Sermon by New Pastor, Rev J.F. Schneider, On Relation Between Leader and Tire Led--No Personalities.
Tiis President, Today, Will Golf And Continue Motor Trips. Cornish, N. II., July 6. In a quaint little church, a century old at Wind sor, Vt., where worshipped fitiO coun try f .lk, President Wilson and his family listened to a sermon, today, on the relation between the leader and the led. _ No reference was made to the President by Rev. J. F. Schneider, a young pastor, installed hut a few days ago, yet the theme he took was the interdependence of people in the ordi nary walks of life with those in high authority He pointed out that only when those who plod along in Un common every day task did theli' work well, could their constituted baders become efficient. For this rea son lie spoke of the need for humility and forbearance "Among those in high places". Down the village street of Wind sor, Vt., from the summer White House at Cornish three mfics away, came the President's two automobiles, covered with the mud brought by an over-night rain. As Mrs. Wilson had ordered on her arrival here that one of The tyvo White House cars be placed at the disposal of the servants, especially on Sundays, so that the lat (Continued on Page Ten.) Excitement in the Big Leagues Growing Intense-New York, Nat., Takes Lead-Phillies Handicaped. New York, July C.—The one out standing feature of the baseball w--.-k just ended was ijie rise of the New York club to the leadership in Uie National League race. The seven-day period of play, with its heavy sched ule that included the fourth, double 'leaders was a history making one in many respects. Coincident with the upward leap of the Giants came the fall of the Philadelphia*, who dropped from first position for the first time since early season, and of Ihe Brook I ns. whose pennant aspirations met with a serious setback by a series or drubbings at the hands of Poston and New York. Chicago on the other hand came up with a rush, gaining ground fast by its own good work while wide breaches were being mode in tlie defences of two of the othel three first division contenders. The Giant charge, however, sticks nut only as the most significant hap pening of the week, but perhaps of the baseball year so far. Perched at last at the top. Metltaw's men will prove a difficult band for any rival lo dislodge if they continue playing in anything like their present form Their week's record was seven games won and none lost, rounding out a still unbroken string of II straight. As a matter of fact, they have won ?C out of their last ik! games, a clip like that is practically unbeatable and there are no signs of a letdown. Several factors have entered into the Giant's run of successes. They have been clouting the ball, hard for one thing, while the pitchers were holding the other fellows down. Their average of hits to a game last week, was over li. Individuals contributing to this showing were ('apt. Larrt Doyle, who habitually sets the pace for the team, Herzog,'Shafer, Fletch er and Snodgrass. Meanwhile the boxmen, Mathewson, Tesreau, Mar tjuard and Dernaree, with efficient help from Crandall anti Fromrrte and even George w iltz are responding to ev ery call made upon them, lie has lost but four games and leads the Na tional twlrlers. The suspension of Manager MeGraw for the Philadelphia encounter with Pitcher Brennan has had no adverse effect upon the team’s play. Philadelphia's pitching staff is showing the effect of. the strain of keeping the club at the top with Alexander and Beaton, the only reallv dependable members. Brooklyn, be sides developing a spasm of box weakness and inflective batting, is shot to pieces with injuries. Wheat. Stengel, Irwin, Fisher and Catcher Fisher being on the hospital list. The prospects seem poor for an immedi ate brace by either of those clubs, although Philadelphia after thd New York attack "as over, took a couple of contests from Host on, Kieoy com ing along with a well-pitched game in the second encounter. Most likely to give the Giants it smart brush in the near future is Chicago, which has been playing ex cellent ball for several weeks past. Both Cheney and Davonder are go Continued on Page Ten.)

Kansas City, Mo., July 6.—Five or six days will elapse before the Aero Club of America announces In New York the ofHeial winner of the Na tion..! balloon rare that started from here.

Then, too, the exact dis tances covered by each balloon must be computed on' the aeronautical maps of tlie Aero Club. The fact that the nearest official measurements, made on an unofficial aeronautical map, last night, shows but miles separating the Goodyear bal loon of Akron, Ohio, which is accoid ed first place; and the Kansas City II, which is credited with having tin limed third, makes interest keen in the offi cial measurements. As the measurements stand, tonight, the Goodyear is credited with having Mown tllTC. miles; the Kansas Post tiff and the Kansas City II 638. The Aero Club of America also will have to decide upon the protests of 1 Robert II. Nopiker, president of the !"Pt. fxiuis Aero club, and It. K.

The value of coffee imported into the United States in 1912 was $118,000,000, against $'2,000,000 in 1900.

German pencil factories produce an nually about three million gross of lead, colored, copying the slate pencils and penholders.

Scientist who plan to explore tlio arctic regions in the near future will carry wireless apparatus to enable them to communicate with the wire less station at Spiitzbergen, which is only one thousand miles from ttie pole. Punch observes with its wonted hu mor ever so slightly touched with pun gency that "the prince of Wales made a lightning tour of Frankfort the other day, exploring the cathedral in fivo minutes, and there is some talk of making him an honorary American." The net earnings of corporations in the calendar year 1912 were $3,000,000,000, an increase of $250,000,000 over the earn ings of 1911.

Montressori, the gifted Italian woman whose theories of teaching have become conspicuous in both Kurope and America, especially In America, which lias a fertile soil for pedagogical the ories, is reported to be intending to marry, with the probable consequence that she will give up her schools. The report, however, is denied—at least, as far as the present is concerned. But the seed has been sown and the work will probably go on whether or n it she gives her personal attention to it. Most trades have ailments peculiarly their own. and one of the very latest of corkmen's complaints to be discov ered is the "conductor's thumb." This affliction is generated by the continual use of the steel "punch” or clipper, which is employed to mark the passen ger's ticket. The pain, very slight at first, gradually increases and spreads to the palm of the hand, bringing in its train a species of cramp of the hand, and compels those affected to handle their "punches” very gingerly. A British medical o(fleer says some harsh words about the "passion for a parlor" among poor people. In many houses of the' poorer classes, he says there are overtaxed bedrooms and yet the largest room of the tenement must be preserved for a parlor. Bike most medical men, he is right, but only front the medical point of view. The "pas sion for a parlor” is a natural desire for facilities for social amenities and is an indication of the civilized condition as distinguished from the savage.— Springfield Kepublican.

The pret ty chorus will prove very effective feeders to the capable comedians and the whole show is one of laugh and applause. It is out of the ordinary— it Is a live show. The master show manship of the comedian, alone, makes this company worth every cent that's poured into their money bags.

Very little drunkenness was seen In Gardiner on the Fourth and the fact that no arrests were made hv the officers on the night Ilf the "rd. on the Fourth or on the nigtil of the Fourth, is no doubt due to the en forcement nf the prohibitory law.

An Ice Cold Story From Portland, Me. Portland, Me., July 6.—According to information supplied the Press, one of the ico deulers in Portland has a contract with the great American Ice Co. whereby lie purchases ice at the rate of 7.7 cents a ton. This same i(,-e is now being sold in Portland for $7 a ton when the freight -rate from the Kennebec valley where it Is secured and where it is now stored is almost insignificant. It looks very much as if the “ice trust” of Portland—if there is such a thing—were trying to cause a good deal of suffering during these hot days. Three are two companies selling the frozen element, and one of them
is willing to dispose of a piece of ice for five cents, while the smallest the other will sell is a 10-cent piece. A day or so ago a. Portland woman, who had been missed by the man who de livered her a five-cent piece, tried to get some from the other company. Here is the conversation that en-1 sued between her and the man on the cart. "Can you let me have a flve-cent piece of Ice." "We don't sell that size." "Will you let me have a 10-cent piece’” "I can't tell until I have served my regular customers." "I need the ice. Cannot von let tne have a small piece now? 1 will pay what you ask." "We have received orders not to supply any of the people who have been taking ice of the other com pany." "The head of your concern need iinl know. Couldn't you let me huvi* a small piece?' "No. I couldn't. We have received orders net to let any id' those who patronize the "Iher concern have ice." No ice was secured by the woman who wanted it. It would have been a fine situation had there been a sick person in that house who absolutely needed the ice to lessen a fever ACCIDENTAL DROWNING Probable Cause of Death of Rev. A. T.

It has no connection with the life saving service operated un der the treasury department. The met that those identified with the ‘Volunteer Life Savers’ l'atrol’ wear .1 uniform sim ilar to that of the United States Lite Saving Service has. perhaps, had some thing to do with the reported contusion of the two.” SPARKS FROM MAINE WIRES. Henry Rnlenline, aged the Auburn carpenter who fell from a root of a ban on which In* was at work in Litchfield, Thursday, died, late Friday night, at the Central Maine Genera! hospital in Lewiston from the effect of his injuries.

I_ Prairie Dogs and Grazing Industry. As a detail of its campaign against prairie dogs on the sheep and cattle ranges of the West, the Biological Sur vey «>f the Department of Agriculture is using carbon bisulphide in connec tion with eight tuns of poisoned grain for the extermination of the little pests on the ranges uf the Coconino National Forest, Arizona. generally the Biological Survey works to prevent the extinction of birds and mammals. In the present in stance it justifies its war against tin prairie dogs on the principle of the campaign against the bubonic-plague rat and squirrel, or against the rabbit which girdles fruit trees. The damage done l»$' tin* jiaaii.e dog, it is pointed out, affects the stock raising industry in two ways First, many acres are laid hare in tin* neigh borhood of prairie dog villages, an the smou'it of food available animals, fre quently horses, have to he killed after they have broken a leg in a prairie dog hole. According to the Department's ex pert the stock industry has unwitting ly favored tin* increase of prairie dogs by killing off co\otos that prey upon stock hut are also natural enemies of the prairie dogs. Dust year on the Cochetopa National Forest of Colorado fifteen tons of pois oned oats freed some 26,000 a<-res of grazing land from prairie dogs. m the Pike National Forest, in the same State, seven tons of pats were used to c lear 60,000 acres. This year fixe or six tone of the poisoned grain only was user! cn the fochetopa and three tons sufficed for the pike. It is estimated that on all the Nation al Forests about 27S.UOU acres, which had been rendered worthless for graz ing purposes by prairie dogs, have been restored to their former usefulness. Since it i:ik'*s on the average 40 acres to support till*- cow, or eight sheep, tins neans a gain in the carrying capacity of the range sufficient to mn 6,950 cat tle or GUO sheep. *In 190N the government began to car ry out this campaign, and in 1911 woi ic on a large scale; it was s successful that in 1912 the quantity of poison put out was doubled. This year’s cam paign is one of cleaning up the areas wher** there was almost complete ex t< i mmatiun in 1912. Electric Freight Yards. One of the most difficult problems in connection with railway electriflca tion is the electric operation of switching yards for freight service. Where the third rail system-of opera tion is employed, it will be conceded, probably, that operation of a freight yard by ihctric power is out of the question. The work of yard men is dangerous enough at the present time; and if we were to add to present dan gers the necessity of keeping clear of a labyrinth of highly charged third tails, extending all over the labyrinth of tracks, it may well he expected that the result in casualties would shortly result in a public outcry and conse quent legislation compelling the aban donment of the system. With the high-tension overhead system of elec tric distribution, however, such as is now in use on the New York, New Haven Hartford railroad from New York to New Haven, it becomes pos sible to equip a freight yard for elec tric operation by suspending a net work of electric conductors overhead. This has now been done for the New Haven railway at its Harlem river terminal in the northern part of New York city. This terminal covers an area of two hundred or three hundred acres, and its tacks have a total ex tent of eighty-six miles. Engineering News.

Augusta. Maine. S»'i .—11 _3 Monday, July 7, 1913. Mr. Gould's Letter. The smug satisfaction with which Democratic candidates and press gloat and brag over the prospects in the Third district special election for Con gressman, is somewhat amusing to lookers-on. Patt is not only counting chickens before they are hatched but he has the eggs all named. And then up bobs former Congressman Gould to declare that Patt's eggs are all rotten. That is pleasant, for a man who has hundreds of legal friends in Maine ready to pay him questionable tribute for the sake of getting him a job be yond the borders of the State, but what about Mr. Gould's eggs? No, it is not a case of pot characterizing kettle, for Sam Gould says he appeals to a better element of the Democratic party than those who worship at the shrine of "brilliant" dissipation and roueism, and Patt is too astute to say very much about fine distinctions. But Patt's organ of printer's ink has opened up his campaign wider than a barn door and has put the adroit poli tical boss 'in bad' with erstwhile ar dent admirers. Even some of the booze crowd are "sore”—and that makes the Somerset candidate confi dent. While the Waterville Sentinel was trying to pucker up a grin con cerning Roy Haines, and help Dlnglcy out with his "Kennebec Ring” idiocy, the genial skowhegan gentleman was writing the following very expressive letter. He seems to have placed his Democratic opponent before the pri maries right where it would be a dis grace and a tragedy to elect him to Congress. Read it: Skowhegan, Maine. July 3, li»13. My dear Sir: Theft comes a time in the course of almost every human life when we must call upon our friends as well as those whose contidenee and respect we hold. If we have so moulded and squar ed our lives as to have made the friends and inspired the confidence and merited the respect of the oth ers. then our lives have not been lived altogether in vain. As a mem ber of the 63nd Congress, I received appeals from nearly every church in my district asking my support upon measures tor the moral good4 and elevation ol mankind. Among the most urgent, i*?rhaps, was to vote anti work in favor ot the Webb Bill, so called, regulating the traffic in intoxicating liquor between "wet" and "dry" states. 1 worked and voted for this meas ure not wholly because you asked me to do so, hut because my own judgment urged to greater activity by you, convinced me that it was the right tiling to do. Now, as a candidate for the nomination at the primaries for Congress on July 3S, the friends of Mr. Pattangall are urging my stand on the Webb Bill against me. As the matter stands with the Republican i*iitv divided, whoever receives the Democratic nomination will lie elected. W. R. Pattangall and myself are the only candidates of that party, and one of us in all human proba bility will he nominated and elect ed. There is an element of my party, of whicli I am not proud, that is against me. I must look to the better and more intelligent lass of citizenship for my support, lienee I appeal to you with the great in fluence which you have with your people, to support me at the prima ries. in order that I may he able to serve you again, and that your .con gressman wifi not lx- under the in fluence or control of that element that condemns my- vote on tiie Webb Bill. It is true that 1 am a c/eiiioviai. You may have been a Republican, but of this 1 never inquired when you asked me to support good measures in Congress. As the signs point you are to have a Dem ocratic congressman. There are two condidates,—you know us both. You know, or can know, our r> ine not in the deep, deep sea. "In fancy I’ve listened oft to the well known words. «»f thi free, wilt! winds and the song of the birds, I have thought of home, of cot and bower. And of scenes that I loved in child hood's hour. And fondly hoped to be laid when I died, In the churchyard there on the green hillside By th** home of my fathers my grave should be, bury me not in the deep, deep sea. Bet my death slumbers be where a mother’s prayer And a sister's tears will be mingled there: Twill be sweet ere the death throb is o’er, To know when its fountain shall gush no more, That those it so fondly hath yearned for will come To plant the first bright flower of Spring on toy tomb; Bet me die where loved ones can weep o’er me, O. bury me not In the deep, deep sea. "And there is another whose tears would be shed For him who lies far in the cold ocean bed; lu hours that It pains me to think of now. She hath twined these locks and pressed this brow: In the hair she hath twined shall the sea serpent hiss. And tire brow she hath pressed shall the cold wave kiss. For the sake of that loved one who waits for me o. bury me not in the deep, deep sea. ••She hath been in my dreams." his voice failed there. Thev gave no heed to his (lying pra\er.

It is welcome news that the Govern ment is preparing to wage strenuous warfare upon the gypsy and brown tail moth pests in Maine. A Journal subscriber at Rockland writes, "I am very much interested in Maine Orange activities and have had the Kennebec Journal, every edition, for over a year on that account. I ap preciate the fact that the news gath ering Tones of a real newspaper are mysterious—even uncanny—but I can t figure any organization which would gain you such a supply of Orange new.-». I would also remark admiringly upon your huge grist of well-handled coun try correspondence, which, I suppose, is made possible by the same organiza tion.” C. H. Thomas of Hallowell brings to the Kennebec Journal office a very interesting newspaper of the long ag". It is an issue of the "Columbian Centinel Massachusetts Federalist." published by Benjamin Russell, cor ner of Congress and State streets, Boston—"at $1 per annum, one-half paid in advance.” This issue was marked "No. 52 of Yol. XCI, August 25, 1804. It carries an address mark naming W. W. Page, Hallowell, and contains the announcement of an as sessment of one and three-eights cents per acre on 28,800 acres of land in Washington county, district of Maine. The Portlanders are just beginning to wake up to the fact that one of Iheir best chances has slipped smooth ly overhead with nought to slay its course. Says an exchange from that fit v "It was generous of us not to ask for any of that State automobile money. Portland's citizens contributed something more than one-tenth of this tax but none of it has come back to this city. It will be used by other cities and towns to nx lip their roads and streets and undoubt edly the money will be well spent. Any wav we didn’t get any of this money and it is probably too late for us to ask for unv part of it now. The Governor and council gave notice that they intended to distribute this fund so that it tnis||t he used U. sonic advantage in rf.ad bunding or repairing this season and other it.If" and towns immediately sent ill their uP plications for a part of it.

Peters of Ellsworth was the last candidate for the nomination to Congress from the Third district to enter the field hut tie was the first to present a nominating petition at the secretary ot State’s office and there is excellent rea son for believing that he will lead all the other candidates when the returns are re ceived the evening of election day.—Port land Press. Interesting Belies. The archives of the United States treasury are rich with relics. In tin treasury department may lie seen the tiles of the office of the auditor lor the disbursing agent," through whom it canceled check showing the payment to Lafayette in 1824 of $-'00,000 by the United States "in consideration of his services and sacrifices in the war of the revolution.” William H. Craw ford, then secretary of the treasury, signed tire warrant, and in the char acteristic French handwriting on the reverse is the indorsement of La fayette. A canceled check or warrant for $15,000,000 represents the payment for the Louisiana purchase under the treaty of 1802. The purchase under the treaty, characterised at the time as "Seward’s Folly,1"'of Alaska, is evi denced by a warrant for $7,200,000 signed by F. E. Spinner, who at the time was secretary of the treasury. The wording of tile warrant begins and runs: "Fay to the unedsigned en voy extraordinary anil minister pleni potentiary of his majesty the emperor of all the Russias." This warrant called for payment in coin and was so paid through the Riggs Rank, then a private banking institution of Wash ington, after being indorsed by Ed ward tie Stoeekl, the Russian minis ter at that time. The purchase of the Philippine islands from Spain is represented in the important financial transactions of the government by four warrants of $5,000,000 each. As a treaty can not be entered into by one country direct ly with one with which it is at war, the warrants were indorsed by Jules Canibon, the French minister, who had delegated authority to represent tlie Spanish government. The Panama canal purchase repre sented the largest financial transac tion of the government. The payment was made by a common draft, payable to "J. Plerpont Morgan Co., special disbursing agent," through whom it was paid to the French company, the former owner. The late J. Pierpont Morgan himself indorsed the draft. A short time previous there had been issued a warrant for $10,00(1.000, cover ing the cost of the canal zone, an area of ten miles on each side of the canal. As jthese canceled checks are held as receipts, it could happen, in case of i their loss, that the government might
not he able to show that the moneys Were actually paid. Not less interesting as relics are: “Accounts: G. Washington with the United States. Commencing Jane. ami ending June, 17X3, compre hending a space of eight years.” Un der this caption are three or four dilapidated calf-hound account hooks in the handwriting of the great American patriot. These accounts were mostly kept while he was on the march, but they were brought up with great accuracy from day to day. At ihe end of each hook there is a com prehensive recapitulation. Individual money and funds of the government expended by him arc specifically tiuli catcil. In a footnote lie calls atten tion to a particular item which he ap peared to have paid, hut for which ho had no voucher. He deducted the amount of the item from his credit until the matter could be definitely settled. All of his accounts are ex pressed in lvnglish money. A con temporaneous account book kept by Caleb Gibbs shows the personal ex penses of Washington and his mili tary family,” meaning, no doubt, his immediate statT. The entries are usually headed, Headquarters, on the march.”' For the most part they cover purchases of food supplies, but now and then arc such entries as: "To cash for a broom that Peter bought some time ago 6d." "Cash paid for mending the chariot Is." "Agreed with Peggy fur 4c per month for the General's washing and 4s per doz. for the gentlemen of the family.” Among other things of interest in the auditor's office are books showing allowances to members of congress to and from Washington. In the Thir teenth congress $363 for mileage is re ceipted in a faint, uncertain hand "I>. Webster." A payment of $,'.60 for 111 days’ attendance is shown to have been made to Henry Clay.—Harper s Weekly. The Age of the Earth. To impatient and hurried people it may lie soothing to devote a little lime to thoughts about the age of the earth. One's own life span' must seem insig nificant as against that vastness, yet there is something comforting in sink ing into the sense of eternity that it suggests. "Geologists speak of millions of years, hardly e\cr less than seven ty-live millions, as the age of the globe” says Charles Schucliert, m the Vale Keview, 'and yet since radium lias been discovered the physicists tell us that we must multiply these figures at least by ten, while before this dis covery they could not allow us more than twenty-live milliorts of years since the earth began to have water laid rocks. Even so, as mortals we ap [war to be dealing with eternity and yet in our imagination we think of ttie endless similar cycles preceding the one through which the sun and the earth have passed.” "Climates of the Past” is the title of the article which is a piece of weather talk on a stupendous scale. We know something about weather changes in’ a small way. The earth's climate has been somewhat fickle, too, but certain seasons of it have been comparatively stable. "We may say that the earth's climate through millions of years' ;s warm and equable," says the article ill its conclusion, "apparently completely devoid of winter. At these times crustal alterations are but slight. At irregular intervals, however, great ranges of mountains are thrown up, air currents are deliected, cooled and dried, conti nents are united by narrow land bridges, and tiie flow of warm water toward the polar regions is either al tered or completely barred, with the consequence that great changes in cli mate take place. These are the criti cal periods of the organic life of the world. Old and established stocks that nave become specialized, bizarre or huge in body, or dominant over their mailer associates, vanish at such times of change and stress. "Small and obscure races rise to as cendancy, become the rulers of their environment for a long time; hut in the end history repeats itself and the fav ored ones give way to those of still greater adaptability. Individuals and families run their course, and vanish into the air and earth from which they come. Our mundane sphere will event ually cease to receive the vitalizing in tUicnce of the sun's rays and the earth will he dead. Finally, even the sun it self seems destined to cease as such, for in some future eternity itnnotalso. AUGUSTA LODGE DIRECTORY BETHLEHEM LODGE, NO. 35, F. Stiit'-d communication. Monday.

Austin's Successor. While Prime Minister Asquith should have the selection of the poet laureate successor to Alfred Austin, It is generally believed that for a time at least, if not permanently, the post of the court rhymer will be vacant. Among the dozen or more poets who have been suggested for the place is Austin Dobson, but it is a question whether British aristocracy would stand the name of Dobson. King Ed ward VII. in scanning a list of guests to be invited to a banquet, blue-pen ciled the name, says the London Times, “on account of its untamillar and plebeian sound." Among those besides Mr. Dobson, who have been mentioned for court poet, are Theo dore Watts-Dunton, William Watson. Stephen Phillips and Robert Bridges. "The trouble is,” says James Douglas. In London Opinion, "that nearly ill the eligibles are Ineligible for one reason or other. The laureate must lie a safe poet, warranted to ride his Pegasus at a conventional amble. There are some who fancy Mr. >i#its. Doubtless bis selection would be a pretty compliment to Ireland at a fateful moment in lier history. But his appointment would involve a slight on Knglish poets. It would he a graceful way out of a hopeless deadlock if Mr. Asquith were to honor poetic genius in a woman by recom mending the king to make Alice Mey nell his poet laureate.”—Indianapolis News. ,-N How to Be an Inventor. A retired professor of mechanical en gineering was called upon to deliver a few lectures on' invention to the senior engineering classes. His first injunc tion was that when one attempts to de vise a machine lo do a certain tiling, one must consider directly the funda mental operations to lie performed and must wipe from the mind all existing methods and all preconceived notions. He stated tiiat one so-called inventor atteni'ited, in the days of the keytlie. to invent a mowing machine. Being familiar only with the scythe, lie de signed a horsedrawn machine which would swing a scythe. He simply re placed tlie man by a mechanism. It is needless to say that his invention did not survive. The problem of efficiently cutting hay and grain was not success fully solved until it was attacked by a man with an open mind, and he devia nt the knife of the modern mowing machine or reaper.

Regular Meeting of Governor and Council, Tuesday, July 29, 1913, 10 A. M. Special Session, Saturday, July 19. The third annual report of the Slate Water Storage Commission, which is now in the hands of the printer, will contain an interesting chapter on tlie geology of the State of .Maine. It is a bibliography of ev erything that has been written on the gealogy of the Stale and published in the various government and scientific publications. The bibliography will have over TOO references of separate articles. Tlie geological index that follows is compiled largely from the bibliog raphy, and in the main is simply a geographical and mitierulogical index. It includes, however, a special ntinera logieal index resulting from it detailed examination of tin* bulletins of tlie United States Geological Survey de voted to the geology of the State.

Quiet is Just the word to express conditions at the lake this Fourth of ,lul\. Young America is well repre sented lie re too, lint they are of the type that insures a "safe and sane Fourth." There are no toy pistols, no tire crackers, n„ tin horns, no noise whatever. Flags are floating over many of the cottages and the lake is dancing sparkling and dimpling un der the’sweep of a dashing breeze. Nearly all of the cottages are inhabited and more are coming. Many new faces ale tf, lie seen here this season, and quite different sections of the country ate represented At Camp K. are the F«*rrills. whoso home is in Georgia. This is their first visit to Maine, ami every day to them here is a veritable red letter day. They enjoy the lake, the pines, the quiet, and they enjoy their temporary home and the neigh borly kindness with which they are met. Pennsylvania is represented by the Stuarts who hive been her" sev eral seasons. In camp we find Mr. and Mrs. Nelson from Waterville with the pride of the grove, the Nelson chil dren. So quiet pleasant and manner ly are they that they are winning many friends among the older tesi dents here.

ROWDITCH, WEBSTER CO. ___ Byron Badly Bitten by Bad “Batstick” Gnats, Byron whs bitten! Bust week Byron Boyd made a visit to bis Dead Kiver logging camps to pay off bis men. Ills trousers pock ets were stuffed with bills and on bis arrival in the land of health-giving forests and trout-producing brooks and streams, Byron's winning smile grew more winning and it was plain to alt that he was glad to be there. The Augusta statesman and lumber man had a man with a boat ready to row him to a point across the river whence he could whlk as he liar] many a score of times before to his camps. This point, called "Batstick" by the former Colby baseball star, makes out into the river a long stretch of forest and marshy land with the hat end in the stream connected by a long nar row isthmus with the main shore. Byron and his Iwiatmen exchanged "good byes" The bout was pushed off for the return and Mr. Boyd pushed ed forward through the grass and un derbush into tlie grove and both were lost to view. As Byron trudged along he was spo ruciously attacked by mosquitoes "as large as eagles.” so he says, and they smote him face, neck, hip and thigh, with cruel bills. They brought blood that mingled with his perspiration as lie tramped and fought his way to the opposite neck of land. Arriving across the peninsular By ron found to his dismay that recent rainfalls and freshets had covered the l urn of land w ith what seemed to be something like ten feet of water. At any rate the water was over his head and he couldn't swim with several hundreds of dollars in bills and sil ver In the pockets of his clothes. It was then that Byron's sweet smile disappeared and an awe-inspir ing frown replaced the smile. Meanwhile the eagle-sized misqut toes continued to feast on Mr. Boyd's warm blood. Byron’s wonderful serenity and pa tience here gave way and lie uttered words that sounded like fragments of the Choctaw tongue. “If I hesitate, I’m lost,” be mutter ed. "To stay here Is to liecome a part of lO.nort.WIO vile mosquitoes. It is not ‘Onward Christian Soldiers' for me I’d have the bugle sound the re treat’” Retreat it was at the dnutde quick at tended by mosquito clouds and red hot weather. There was only enough left of him on his return m the lauding place to Utter a feeble “liulhin" and this his boatman tailed to hear. The mosquitoes kept up tlndr sav age assault and in desperation, liavlnv* recovered his breath, Byron uttered a series of savage yells that re-»« hoeci from shore to shore. Meanwhile tin* mart in the boat was having troubles of his own. H«- had become mixed up in a drive of logs* and had his attention oeeupied in get ting out his boat. Byron imagined himself at a red hot meeting of the State committee with all hands talking at once and himself seeking to b master Boyd's poekets saturated wit rain. With the sun's return Bvimi pass, the rest of the day slowly sepnratin bank bills from the rolls and puttiu them weighted with pebbles on th ground to dry. On returning to eiiivi/.ation M Boyd found that he had just douhp his weight. Ten f'agle-mosquito*, had with their bites imi eased bv pi per cent his normal size! THE COLONIAL.

Philadelphia, Dec. 6, 1912. 44 In Decem ber 1908, my face became sore. I tried everything that was recommended, and my face got worse instead of better. I spent over $100 and got no benefit. The face and nose were very red and the eruption had the appearance of small boils, which itched me terribly. I cannot tell you how terrible my face looked all I can say is, it was dreadful, and I suffered beyond description. 441 have not gone on the street any time 6ince 1908 without a veil, until now. Just four months ago a friend persuaded me to give Resinol a trial. 1 have used three cakes of Resinol Soap and less than a jar of Resinol Ointment, and my face is perfectly free from any eruption, and my skin is as clear and clean as any child’s." (Signed) Mrs. M. J. Bateman, 4256 Viola St. Every druggist sells Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap, but if you have any skin trouble it will cost you nothing to try them.

The ills of women seem to conspire against domestic harmony. No husband can understand why a woman should be continually ailing, fretful, nervous and despondent, and he gets out of all pa tience with her. In nine cases out of ten some organic derangement is the cause of this condition and is easily overcome by I.ydia E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound, a woman's remedy for woman's ills which has cured more severe eases of this kind than any other remedy we know. SCRUMPTIOUS!

FOR CONSPIRACY,1 I Prisoners Brought Here by Deputy Marshal Hasty For a Healing Betore United Stales GommissionerFarrington. _ I i Owing to His Absence, the Men Are Taken to Portland.
i United States Deputy Marshal W. S. Hasty of Portland arrived in the city, Friday night, bringing with Dim three Syrians, Kalil Ziter, Michael Ziter (brothers) and Joseph Wahby, who had been arrested, Thursday, at Fort Kent, on the charge of con spiracy. The men were confined for tile balance of the night tit Kennebec jail, and it was tlie intention of .Mar shal Hasty to have had them ar raigned before Fnited States Commis sioner Frank <_!. Farrington, Satur day morning, but as the commissioner was at his stimer home at Squirrel Island, it was necessary for the mar shal to continue mi to Portland with the prisoners, which in- did, leaving Augusta on Train 64, at 9.3X A. M. After the arrival of the party at •Portland, the prisoners were ar raigned, Saturday afternoon, Ill'll 'll United States Commissioner W. M Bradley, the. case proving to he mie of the very few of the kind that have occurred in llie State of .Maine. The charge preferred against the prisoners was that of conspiring with one Asad N. Corey of Whitclield, N. H., to de fraud the creditors of that individual, who had petitioned himself into bank ruptcy. The case was continued for 10 days and will he given a hearing, on Tuesday, July 15. The prisoners will be represented at the hearing by Judge Benedict F. Maher of Augusta, In speaking of the case the Port land Sunday Press of July C says: “The case is of more than usual in terest for there is a hint that some widespread plan to defraud creditors may have been entered into by a number of Syrians. The present case involv'-s not only the three men who have been arrested, but others in New Hampshire, Vermont and Massachu setts. “Corey conducted a general cloth ing and furnishing business in White field. Early in the year, he filed a voluntary petition in bankruptcy. Tin case was presented to a referee and E. M. Rower of Whitefield was ap pointed as trustee for the store. He began an investigation and soon found that much of the goods, the tangible assets, had been shipped from Whitefield. “This information was communi cated to the government and for two months a special agent has been at work on the case. It is said that tile goods have been located not only in Hampshire, in Vermont and in Massa Maine. but in other parts of New ehusetts. The arrest of the three Syrians at Fort Kent came because it was charged they had some of the goods in tfceir possession. “As soon as the discovery of the trustee was made known, Corey was arrested and brought before a com missioner, last February. He was hound over for the April term of court and furnished bonds. When the court convened. Corey did not put in an ap pearance. He jumped his bail and it was said he had left the country. “After the agent had concluded his investigation, Deputy IT. S. Marshals W. S. Hasty and A. F. Ruswell went to Fort Kent amt arrested the three men. This was, on Thursday, and Friday, the two officers and their pris oners arrived in Rangor, but found that Commissioner Reed was out of tiie city. They at once left for Au gusta the same evening and the next, Saturday, morning, they learned that Commissioner Farrington was at Squirrel Island, so the whole party came to Portland and the three men were arraigned before Commissioner Hradley, early in the afternoon. Hr continued the case for a hearing, un til July la. and ordered each man to furnish $JOU" bonds. Enable to do this, they were committed to the jail. “If probable cause is f4un<l against the men, they will he bound over to the district court in Massachusetts, because it was at North Adams, the warrants charge, that tl»e conspiracy was entered into. "While no information lias as yet reached here, it is thought seven or eight other arrests were made at tin same time as the three Fort Kent Syrians were taken Into custody, Ii was planned to make the arrests sim ultaneously in order that the men scattered all over New England might not learn wlmt was afoot."

P (Continueu from Cage One.) waited patiently for the announcer with his big megaphone to tell them their trains were made up. Usually about 12 coaches constituted a train, and the railroad people faced the big gest problem of the week in getting loaded trains away. It was the sultriest and most un comfortable day of the week, one dd soldier in gray from North Carolina dropped dead in the crowd at tie town station of one of the railroads. He was H. H. Hodges of Union Hill, N. C. Tonight, the camp was practicallt deserted. The electric lights in the Ii2 streets in the camp were burning brightly, but the streets themselves were deserted save for the hurrying back and forth of soldiers and work men who have already begun the task of dismantling the camp. Two month.-* will elapse before the ground on which the camp was pitched will have hceii restored to its original condition, fences rebuilt and roads made over. Tonight, the army officer;;, after a week of the hardest sort of work made merry at a dinner in the bij mess tent which they have used jointly with the newspaper corre spondents. General I.iggett presided and all the officers present were felicitated over the wonderful success of what lias been described as an army camp that will stand as a model for all the countries of the world for years to come. When the week's program for the celebration was tentatively laid out some time ago it was arranged that the final feature of the reunion should be the laying of a corner-stone of a great peace memorial on the battle field, but the plan for the monument fell through. Today, Colonel Andrew Cowan of Louisville, Ky., who was a captain of the First New York Bat tery in the battle of Gettysburg, re vived the plan, and as a result of a meeting, over which he presided, a committee went to Washington with a view to securing the introduction in Congress of a bill providing for the erection of a peace monument and the appropriation of $1,000,000. In addressing the gathering Colonel Cowan said: l “It is hard to control my emotions when I recall this battlefield 50 years ago. Pickett's brave men were in full retreat and we were holding the ground in the angle. Beyond the Em mittsburg road was thickly strewn with their dead and wounded and our own. “Over there on Cemetery Ridge stands, today, an equestrian statue of General George G. Meade, the great commander of the Army of the Poto mac, facing Seminary Ridge. Does lie look for Hill's 10,000 brave men and Pickett's 500 gallant Virginians to re turn, or does he look for the peerless leader of the Southern army? "General Robert E. Bee's lifelike statue mounted on his famous war horse 'Traveller' will soon be placed on the pedestal already reared by Vir ginia on Seminary Ridge to receive it. The forms of the two great command ers on the battlefield of Gettysburg marks a high tide of peace between tbe North and South, which shall never recede while Americans love liberty and the union. The corner stone of a monument will be laid on Put-ln-Bay Island in commemora tion of the centennial of Perry's vic tory over the British fleet on Bake Erie. •'Such monuments possess an educa tional value which cannot be measured by what they cost. Teach the young Americans to believe that atad we ran have no fears for the future of our country. .'MioiJid not a peace monument Pc raised on tills battlefield of Gettysburg, a monument In commemoration of this union between the soldiers who fought for different principles and fought brave ly from mi to 1S65, bv and through which ha-s been forever established that tills nation under God shall not perish? “We should highly resolve to do all that in us lies to influence the Congress and tho states to erece a peace monu ment which shall he higher and grander than any other how here or hereafter erected on the battlefield of Gettysburg.” A number of Union and Confederate veterans met, today, and recommended the formation of an organization of sol diers of both sides to meet annually. The resolution to this effect Is signed by prominent men who fought at Gettysburg and is as follows: "On the eve of our departure from Get tysburg we who have been privileged to participate In the fVOtli anniversary of the v-.rtle bear testimony to the complete •uccess of the reunion, and to the rich biev-oiegs that have come to us as indi viduals and will surely flow In refreshing streams to every portion of our reunited country: and that our fellow citizens ot all sections of our country may.. Vnjw that friendship and good will have been completely restored between the surviv ing veterans of the great war, we recom mend the formation of an organization of the Blue and the Gray to meet in na tional convention at least once each year.

It is believed that the tariff debate, even should it start the first of next week as the Democratic leaders now expect, will not be concluded in the Senate before the last weeks ot jAugust. i.uiMJi inyrMigauunn w niui f,ir« uui ui the tariff revision bill, but have gone far beyond its realm, promise to engross tne attention of Congress again, this week.

Mulhall, one of their former employes, with being engag ed in an unlawful attempt to influence legislation. Should the House succeed, ednesday, in adopting the resolution de bated in that body, yesterday, the Mul hall investigation will be a double-bar relled affair with committees working upon it at each end of the Capitol.

AT CHURCH. (Continued from Page One.)
ter might attend church services, th m obey any order that is given to them. I A great crowd of strikers wearing red badges surrounded tile Carlton hotel while the terms of settlement were being arranged, last night. After the meeting the mob surrounded a department store owned by Chudleigh Brothers, one ot whom is accused of having fired a revol ver at the strikers from a window. The rioters threw three sticks of dynamite in to the store and were preparing to lout the place when the dragoons charged and dispersed them. sqnce the outbreak of the war this city has not experienced such a day of ter- rorism. The mobs in the business sec-, tion of the town caused less fear than the desperadoes who were threatening te i dynamite buildings in the outskirts. Places of business were closed and the troops were depended upon to guard them while bands of citizens armed with rifles patrolled the residential quarters. Kvery male citizen capable of bearing arms was on duty. Rioters have burned many small shops at Benoni and have also blown up the Star newspaper office. The rioting, Saturday, began when a bodv of strikers forced their way into the Rand Club, which particu larly excited their enmity because its members are the mine owners. They completely demolished everything on tin* ground floor. Three times a de tachment of dragoons rode through the mob to the accompaniment ot Jeers, broken bricks and stones. Three times the mob was scattered, but it quickly reformed. The troops fired a volley over the heads of the rioters and' then two volleys directly into their ranks. The rioters fled t the Giants’ in potency. Pittsburg continues to lose with regularity. 8t. Louis has done much better and is close on the Pirates' heels. Boston looked to be slumping for a wtiile, hut braced in Brooklyn’s climate. Cincinnati is. getting to look more like the old Cub team with every week. Jimmy Sheckard has now joined the forces of his old team mate. Tinker is finding another ex-Cub, Miner Brown, Ills most successful barman, just now, especially when the ■Veteran is put in against his former Chicago associates. A shutout on the Fourth was Brown’s latest performance at the Cubs' expense. In the American League. The story in the American League is almost the same frotn one week to another. One week the Athletics play excellent ball and the next the quality is super-excellent. Last week was one of the superfine sort for this sterling team which is so far ahead in the race that it seems almost useless to speculate upon the possibility of its being caught. It has developed the fault of winning almost invariably whatever the conditions. Eddie Plank, the Gettysburg vet j eran, added two more to his long string of victories during the week. Plank looks as if he might keep up I the pace the rest of the season, while I Bender, if less effective Just at pres ent than he was a little earlier, is not likely to drop many games. Brown, I Houck and the other youngsters are nobly filling in the gaps for the Mack men. Washington and Boston played one of the most interesting series of the week, Washington carrying off the big end, winning four straight, the last be ing a heart-breaking 15-inning game. Gjiinth's men have not given up hope •«>c winning out, by "any means. They dropped lily one game in five, last weep, toe lowly Highlander^taking the second engagement of Independence day. Boehling lias not failed Gritlith yet. and Groom is pitching better ball again. Chicago and Cleveland held each oth er's pace, the record for both being five won and two lost, with one game tied. The effect of Hal Chase's presence in the White Sox's lineup is still appar ent in the box scores. Chase is batting better than in his best days with the New Yorks. It lias been unofficially llgurod that his average since joining Callahan's forces is close to .400. The sh g ®j Philadelphia .h 4 1 g oncTnna'tV 3 5 42 40 •Tie game july 4th, A.
