Brunswick, Me., June 4.— (Special).—The Ivy Day exer- rises of the class of 1016 of Bowdoin College passed into his- tory Friday as one of the most successful for many years, i The only feature to at all lessen the pleasures of the day was the defeat administered to the ’Varsity nine on Whittier field Friday morning by the Bates team with a score of seven to three. The formal exercises of the class were held in Memorial hall at 2.30 P. M. followed by the planting of the ivy at the j east of the building, and ending as a fitting finale for the aft ernoon with the impressive ceremony of “Seniors’ Last Chapel.” With the Ivy Hop in the new gymnasium Friday evening the social festivities of the week came to a close at an early hour Saturday morning voted by all as pleasant a three days as could be passed anywhere. The busiest and most important day of Ivy Week culminates a series of house parties, dances and other events. For the last two days Kappa Chapter of Psi Upsilon and Lambda Chapter of Zeta Psi have been hold ing their annual dancing parties. WILLIAM D. IRELAND Of Stetson, Junior Class Marshal, Bow doin College. The Game i’jv Join wont down to defeat at the i,o' of Bates Friday morning by tl score of seven to three. In the first inning Phillips of Bowdoin re ceived a free pass to first, Donnell sacrificed, and the speedy Bowdoin left fielder stole third and a little later crossed the plate on a pretty Steal. In the second inning Lord of Bates reached second on a nice hi' which scored Talbot. Thurston we. walked and "Monty” Moore stepped up to the (Bate and drove a steaming Hner over the right field fence for a home run. Ill the same inning Shum way's single, Goodsky’s double and an error by Puller of Bates brought in Bowdoln’e hast two runs of the game. In the fourth Butler and Davis singled, ana with a wild pitch by and tt scratch hit by Duncan, ra|b fru able to add two more to hcr^Wl#.' With the exception of the g t h^WMKghe Garnet earned an other triple to right and DiincanJaiacriflce, the game ended without! further scoring. The game !>s a whole was of a rather uninter esting type and was not at all up to the usual standard of Ivy Day games.

JuneLalw Hallowell Boy at Front Tells Mother of a Few Anxious Moments When He and Companion Ran Safely Through Hail of Bullets Hallowell, Me., June 4.—(Special).—The following extracts are taken from a letter written May 17 by Frank Goodrich, the Hallowell boy who was wounded at the battle of Ypres and who is now recovering from his wounds in the General Army Hos pital at Versailles, France: Wound Healing “The wound is healing slowly but but there is no need for worry I shall be just as good as ever when it does heal, and perhaps I am just as well out of the game for a while for the fighting is still going on as fiercely as ever up around Ypres. I do not know where it is all going to end. The slaughter is terrible. It is more like a war of extermination than any thing else. It is going to be terrible now that the warm weather is here. Dead Utter Ground "The last time that I went into the trenches the ‘No Mans Land’ between us and the Germans was littered with the dead of friend and foe alike and neither side dared to go out at night to bury them. Rescuers Wounded. “A party of our men went out the night before I was wounded and were only out a few minutes when the Ger mans sent up a ‘star shell’ (they light up the surrounding country as a lamp lights up a dark room and discovered them at work and at once opened up rapid fire and wounded two before they could get back to our trench. I was busy guiding a party of ‘stretcher braves’ (conveying our men who had been wounded the day before the shell fire> back to the main road where the ambulances could pick them up. A Perilous Expedition. “I was in charge of the party and had a private with me to assist the stretcher bearers if necessary. We made three trips that night and re turned from our third to the trenches about 3 A. M. There was another case to go out and the captain gave me instructions to go out again and try to get back before daylight, but if I could not make it to stay back in the village until night again. You see we had to cross a field in full view of the German trenches and it wras sui cide in daylight but safe enough at night. ‘But get back if possible for we are going to need every man.’ These were the last words of the captain, so it was up to me. Well we struck out again and I hustled the party right along and got them to the road safely, then the private and I started back. I could see it was going to be rip and tuck and when we reached the edge of tne field that separated us from our trench it was broad daylight I glanced at my companion and he was not looking very enthusiastic to say the least, so I asked him what he though of it. ‘Pretty risky,’ he. thought. So I asked him if he wanted to race across and take a chance on their seeing us. He shoved it on to me with, ‘You’re the bos’, so I said ‘Come on,’ and away we went as fast as our legs would carry us straight for the trench. I don't think the Germans saw us until we were about half way to our own trench. Then they cut loose and the bullets sung around us like mosquitoes. "Our men saw us coming and opened fire on the Germans to cover us and soon we tumbled into our trench breathless but safe, both of us laugh ing like a couple of kids that had es caped from a fat policeman. The cap tain said I was foolish to do it, but I noticed he was pleased that we had got back and within ten minutes the Ger mans had attacked on our right and left with gas and within half an hour the poor fellow who came back with me was shot through the head right beside me. If we hadn’t come in to the trench, but gone back to the vil lage instead he would have been alive today and I would not have been w'ounded in all probability. It’s an awful game. Well I only talk about myself and my experiences in my letters. I guess it is a weakness, but depend upon it I am longing more than I’d care to admit for the time to come w’hen I shall see you all again. Your affectionate son, FRANK.” THE WEATHER FAIR Washington, June 4.—Following is the forecast for northern New Eng land: Fair Saturday and Sunday with warmer Sunday.

DISEASE Veterinaries Unable to Identify Symptoms Shown by Animal in Caribou Herd FEAR HOOF AND MOUTH AILMENT Caribou, Me.,. June 4.—(Spe cial).— The Caribou animal, a yearling Jersey bull, which has developed symptoms of hoof and mouth disease is owned here by Baird Brothers. The animal is .veil isolated and even if the case proves to be hcof and mouth disease, as it is now hoped it will not, there is no danger of the spread of the epidemic. Dr. B. L. Pratt, the veterinary sur geon and State inspector who has been on the case from the first, says that within two or three days it will be definitely known whether the animal has hoof and mouth disease or some other animal ailment. Dr. Pratt says all the symp toms of hoof and mouth disease are evident and the case is puz zling, but no other case has yet been found and there is every reason to hope that the animal is deceiving its examiners and its symptoms belie its real ail ment. Furthermore, the out look is more hopeful, Dr. Pratt; declares, because a week has now passed since the developing j of symptoms by this animal and no signs of other cases have, come to light after the passage! of seven days. Commissioner Reticent The Department of Agriculture' is very reticent about the suspected case of hoof and mouth disease in Caribou and no information was given out i from there Friday. Commissioner Guptill, when asked by the Journal representative if he had learned any thing about the case further than was published Friday morning in a dis patch from Caribou, replied: “If we have, we are not saying anything about it.” GERMAN REINFORCEMENTS AGAIN FLUNG TO WESTERN FRONT AND RECOVERY OF THE GROUND RECENTLY LOST IS ATTEMPTED GERMAN SPY IS SENTENCED TO BE SHOT London, June 4.—4.45 P. M.—Official announcement was made' here tonight that a German spy named Muller had been sentenced to death. The an nouncement follows: “The trial of two alleged spies.

Wakefield of Bar Har bor has received a letter from United States Senator ^Johnson assuring him that a number of United States bat tleships will visit Bar Harbor, prob ably on July 4. Small Essays into Allies’ Territory Believed to Presage Events on a Much Larger Scale Fol lowing Capture of Przemysl— German For ces Sent to Strengthen Arras-Ypres Line London, June 4.—10.40 P. M.—With the fall of Przemysl, although this does not appear to be the limit of their efforts against the Russians in Gali cia, the Germans have again turned their attention to the western front and simultaneously with the news of the arrival of German reinforcements in Flanders and the province of Ar tois. France, come reports of their at tacks on positions recently captured by the British and French. Trenches Recovered They have succeeded in recovering some trenches taken oy the British northeast of Givenchy and have stormed the Chateau In the village of Hooge. part of which the British still hold, although for a time, the British were compelled to evacuate the build ing, which they had captured Mon day night. The Germans also claim to ‘be In

possession of the sugar refinery at Souchez, the loss of which they have not previously acknowledged. While these in themselves are considered small matters in military circles here, they are believed to be the forerun ners of fighting on a large scale. New Troops on Ypras Line For some time it has been reported that the French were slowly driving out the Germans from strong positions north of Arras and were, in the words of an officer Just returned from the front, "punching a hole in the German line.” To stop this movement and also to re lieve their troops who, according to the British accounts, were suffering very se verely from British attacks and through their own counter-attacks, the Germans have despatched new troops to the Arras-Tpres line and apparently are making an effort to take the initiative. It is believed here that none of these new detachments has been brought from the eastern front as all accounts In dicate that the Austrians and Germans are still vigorously attacking the Rus sians, who are falling back to positions between Przemysl and Lemberg. The Russians are endeavoring to hold the line (Continued on Pago 5—Column 7) m FIRE AT WATEBVILLE Gulflight Explanation CABINET APPROVES WILSON NOTE $50,000 BLAZE IN R. R. YARD Heavy Damage Done in Maine Central Coal Sheds at Waterville Shortly Before Mid night _ SPECTACULAR FIRE STARTED BY SPARK Engine Probable Cause Difficult Work for Firemen Forced to Lay Hose Under Cars Waterville, Maine, June 4.— (Special).—A fire which start ed at 10.50 Friday night, ap parently from a passing engine, swept through the large coal shed of the Maine Central rail road in the yards here causing a loss estimated to be at least $50,000. When the fire was discovered by one of the yard crews the flames were breaking through the roof and although an alarm was sent in promptly the department was handicap ped on its arrival by the fact that the yard was full of cars and it was necessary to take the hose under them to reach the fire. Cars Burned The flames spread rapidly and In a short time over 100 feet of the struc (Continued on Page 5—Column 7) GERMANY STORY OF MISTAKE Disposes of Gulflight Case as “Unfortunate Accident” and Offers to Pay for Damage BLAMES BRITISH Declares Commander Believed Proximity of Patrol Boats Betok ened British Steamer Washington, June 4.—Germany, in a note cabled to the state department to day, by Ambassador Gerard at Berlin, expressed regrets that through “an un fortunate* accident” a German subma rine had torpedoed the American ship Gulflight, and declared itself “ready to furnish full recompense for the damage thereby sustained by Ameri can citizens.” Cushing Incident In the same communication the Ger man foreign oftiffice said it had not yet been possible to clear up fully the case of the American steamer Cushing, re ported attacked by a German aero plane. and asked that the United States communicate the information in its possession concerning this incident. Blame for the attack on the Gulflight was placed by the foreign office upon the proximity of two British patrol boats and the absence from the steam er’s freeboard of the distinctive mark ings usually carried by neutral ships in the war zone. “That the attacked steamer carried the American flag" the note added, “was first observed at the moment of firing the shot.” (Continued on Page 5—Column 3) NOTETO BE SENT MONDAY Wilson’s Second State* ment to Germany Ac* cepted by Cabinet as A Whole on Friday PROMPT AND PINAL REPLY REQUIRED Alternative Not Stated but Understood to Be Severance of Diplo matic Relations with Germany Gulflight and Falaba Cases Not Mentioned

Presi dent Wilson read to his cabinet today the draft of a note to be sent to Germany demanding, in effect, an adherence by that na tion to the humane principles of international law in the conduct of maritime warfare as affect ing neutrals. Comparatively brief, but described as insistent and emphatic, the communica tion will be cabled not later than Monday for presentation by Ambassador Gerard to the Ger man foreign minister, Dr. Von Jagow. The cabinet approved the note as a whole.

THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL FOR GARDINER HIGH, CLASS OF 1915 Seniors Take Charge of Opening Exercises and Establish Plan So Pleasing That It will Prob ably Be Continued. Friday was thp last day of school for the Class of ’15, G. H. S. The opening exercises of the morning were given over to them and this practise was found to be so interesting that it will in all probability become a cus tom in the school. The entire school gathered in room Ko. 1, the Senior class occupying chains facing the school. The exercises opened by reading of the Scriptures, by the class president, Norman Fleming, followed by a song "Farewell Summer,” by the entire school. The address to undergradu ates by Miss Edith Chase was bright, witty and apt. The song, “In Old i Madrid” by the school was followed j I by remarks by Supt. Chase and Brin. Chaffee. Mr. Chase remarked upon the good school spirit that prevailed, i especially in athletics, and character- ized the past year as the cleanest and best known, giving much credit to Coach Peterson for this condition. Next came the class song, sung by the Seniors. The exercises closed with cheers for the Senior class by the oth er classes and for the individual classes by the Senior class. The room was trimmed in the class colors, red and black, and a 1915 ban ner was raised over the teacher’s desk to remain there until removed by sim ilar exercises next year. Miss Rich ards presented each member of the class with a red carnation. Mrs. Wellington Potter of Haverhill. Mass., Is a guest at the home of Mrs. F. Goldsmith, West Gardiner. Reuben L. Snowe returned Friday from Bangor, where he has been serving as a juror in the federal court. The great June sale is on at the Peo ple's store.—Adv. Geo. B.

Co's, mill at Chisholm, left Tuesday for j i Millinocket where he will take up a similar position for the Great Northern i Paper Co. llis family will remain here until the close of school, when they will join hint in his new home.—Livermore Falls Advertiser. Another Forged Check Another of the checks purloined from the check book of Ralph L. Booker has made its appearance at the Gardiner National Bank. coming from Rockland. The cheek was made payable to John A. Clark and was for j $25.00. The name of Ralph L. Booker was forged at the bottom. The check was cashed in Rockland by C. W. Sheldon, a druggist. Harmony of Chinese Laundry Dis turbed The quiet and harmony that is al ways apparent at the Chinese laundry on Water street was rudely disturbed Friday afternoon when an out of town j woman, who had lost her laundry j check, put in an appearance and de manded that her wearing apparel be delivered to her forthwith. Explanation of the rule of the shop ^vailed naught and the police were finally summoned to restore peace between China and America. The washing was delivered with the understanding that the wo-' man was to bring no more work to the j establishment. Berry-Berry Miss Gladys Marshall Berry of this, city, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wil liam B. Berry, was united in marriage Friday morning at Christ churcn to Harrison M. Berry 6f Pittsburg, Pa., Rev. Canon Plant performing the cer emony. The wedding was a simple one, the bride and groom being unattended, on ly the family and immediate friends being present, the hour of the nup tials having been kept a secret. The charming personality of the bride has! won her the friendship of all whom j she met and she is followed by the| hearty best wishes of all. She is a graduate of the Gardiner High school, class of 1906, and after her graduation entered the employ of the Sandy Riv er Railroad at their office in this city. Later she went to the office of the reg ister of deeds at Augusta and still lat er entered the employ of the Maine Trust Banking Co. For the past five years she has been the organist at Christ church. Mr. Berry is the son of Mr. and Mrs.! Charles A. Berry and was born in Gardiner, graduating from the High school in 1897. Kntcring Bowdoin Col lege he graduated in 1911 and Is a member of the D. U. fraternity. He is employed as division auditor of the American Bell Telephone Co. with of fices at Pittsburg, Pa. A Curiosity John Header of this city has a curi osity in the shape of a brick which he says came from the old Bowman block now being demolished. The brick is a pressed one and has upon its side a diagram of two fishes and several trees. Seventy-nine years ago Arch Morrell, grandfather of E. W. Morrell of this city, is said to have carved! such a design on a board and it is! probable that the brick shown came from a mould in which this board play ed a part. Classmates’ Surprise Miss Grace Goldsmith was given a sur prise party Friday evening at her home in West Gardiner, about 30 of her class mates at the Gardiner high school being present. Miss Goldsmith was presented with two finely bound volumes, the pre sentation being made by Miss Helen Peacock in behalf of those present, and responded to by Miss Goldsmith very gracefully.

DR. DESJARDINS' NAME KEPT ON ROLL OF THE CO. MEDICAL SOCIETY The Kennebec County Medical So ciety held a regular meeting Wednes day evening at Hotel Elmwood for the transaction of routine business. Among other business matters acted upon It was voted to keep on the roles of the society'the name of Dr. Dejar dlns of Waterville, who is in the French army. The doctors considered favorably making a charge for advice given over the telephone. It was voted to hold a meeting in the fall at which the wives of the doctors anufca be entertained. CHANGE IN SCHOOL GRADING SYSTEM At the late meeting of the board of education it was decided upon the rec ommendation of the superintendent to change the grading of the elementary schools of the city. Beginning with September, 1915, all pupils will be classi fied by the eight-grade instead of the nine-grade system. This is in accord ance with the custom of an increasing majority of the towns and cities of New England, and with the almost univer sal custom of the other states of our country. The first three grades in our city have been graded upon the new system for the past year, but all will now be placed upon it. To effect this all pupils who have done satisfactory work in the fifth, sixth, sev enth and eighth grades of the city will be promoted to the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth grades, respectively, of the new syBtem. This change will be in name only, as all pupils will do the coming year the same work in their studies as they would have done without the change and in June, 1916_ classes will be graduat ed from the eighth grade to the high school. The pupils of the present fourth grade will be promoted, if their work has been satisfactory, to grade four A. From the first to the fourth grade in clusive, promotions will be made semi annually, and the work of each grade is divided into two lytrts, known as B work for the first half and A work-for the sec ond half. Again in the first two grades promo tions are made not at any stated period, but only when the required amount of work has been completed. The result of this arrangement is that the length of time required to complete the first two grades will vary with the ability of the child from one to three years. For the next year an important change will b& made in the ungraded room. This will be placed at the Pleasant street building instead of at the Redington street building for two special reasons. First, that the large boys and girls who make up a major part of the member ship of this school may be associated with children of their own age and size. Second, that it may accommodate pupils from any part of the city, owing to its central location. There will be assigned to this build ing pupils from the grades below the eighth, who are a number of years be hind their grades. In this school the pupils will receive the individual help needed in the essential branches to ena ble them to enter a suitable grade or to obtain that instruction which will be of the greatest service to them in their life work. Deputy Sheriff Roderick Has Day Full of Seizures Deputy Sheriff Roderick had a field i day Friday and when the totals for I the day were counted up it was found f that he had a good lead. The score as posted on the board at City hall was 24 bottles of ale from the office of the American Express Co., at the Maine Central station, one gallon of whiskey from the office of the At lantic Express Co., five dozen bottles of ale and five dozen bottles of beer consigned to one person from the freight office and one gallon of alco hol from the down town office of the American Express Co.

Everything was carried out in a lirat class manner and much credit for the success of the function is due the various class committees in charge. “The Revolt,” a laughable play In one act, was well presented by the Law rence High School Dramatic Associa tion. Each and every part was well taken and it would be difficult to deter mine which was the best taken. Marga ret Totman as Gradman Greggs of the Flushing Academy of Household Science for Young Ladies was very dignified and carried her part well. Marjorie Smith took the part of Pauline, working for her tuition, in a most pleasing manner. Genevieve Gillis in the part of Susan Jane Jones, an emissary of the Amerl- i can Ladies' Association for the Promo tion of Female Supremacy, furnished tne comedy. The students were Christine Brophy as Kate, Julia Moyt at Grace, j Doris Orcutt as Edith, Irene Ryan as i Ida, Edna Lascelle as May. The Ideal j Husband was most aptly taken by Him-! self, and proved to be quite the surprise i of the evening. The play was presented in the Assembly hall and the stage was fitted out to represent an interior scene, j Principal John A. Partridge coached the principals of the cast. The general committee in charge of the fair was composed of Margaret Totman, Cornell Lawry, Ralph Blakney and Gene vieve Gillis. The Seniors sold ice cream and were very well patronized. The com mittee which did the decorating and also presided at the booth was Christine Bro phy, William Burgess. Marian Bates. A lilac booth, from which were dis pensed punch and candy was where the Juniors held full sway.' The commit tee there was Marguerite Craig, Jeanette Lovejoy, Ashton Richardson, Ralph Blakney. The girls to serve the wares were Jeanette Lovejoy, Marguarite Craig and Caroline Wyman. The Sophomores, from a corner of white, sold fancy articles and cooked food. The committee In charge was Norman Danforfh, Mahlon Crummett, Genevieve Gillis, Mary Lowe, Gladys Shorey, Clarence Lascelle, Phlll|p Mer chant. Misses Shorey and Lowe had charge of the table. The grab bag of orange and black was under the charge of the “Freshies” and proved to be one of the centers of inter- est. The committee was Cornell Lawry, Frank Knowlton, Margaret Donahue and Irene Ryan. Following the presentation of the play a social was enjoyed.

The decision rendered Thursday denying dissolution of the United States Steel corporation would receive greater attention but for in ternational affairs. All in all, busi ness for future delivery is growing steadily, though perhaps slowly and at most places it is ahead of last year, when trends in general were down ward. Collections in the major part of the country are about fair, money is easy, road sales, especially in the interior are increasing and mall or-^ der trade is much better than a year ago.

GERMAN STORY (Continued From Page One) Torpedoed In Channel The Gulfllght was torpedoed in the English channel five weeks ago, w’hile bound from Port Arthur, Texas, for Rouen, France, with oil. She was tow ed to Crow’s sound and beached for repairs. Two seamen were drowned when the crew took to the boats imme diately after the attack, and the cap tain died of heart trouble the next, day. The expression of regrets and offer of reparation in today’s note follows the principle outlined in the circular re cently sent to neutral nations by Ger many disclaiming any intention of at tacking neutral vessels carrying non contraband cargoes. Text of Note The text of the note, which was signed by the minister of foreign affairs fol lows ’’Referring to the note of May 2Sth the undersigned has the honor to inform his excellency, the ambassador of the United States of America, Mr. James W. Gerard, that the examination undertaken on the part of the German government concerning the American steamers Gulf light and Cushing has led to the follow ing conclusions: Reasons For Attack "In regard to the attack on the steam er Gulflight,'the commander of a Ger-i man submarine saw on the afternoon of May 1st in the vicinity of the Scilly Isl ands a large merchant steamer coming in his direction, which was accompanied by two smalicr vessels. These latter took such position In relation to the steamer that they formed a regulation safeguard agair.st submarines; moreover, one of them bad a wireless apparatus, i which is not usual with small vessels. From this it evidently was a case of! English convoy vessels. Since such ves- sels are regularly armed, the submarine could not approach the steamer on the surface of the water without running the danger of destruction. It was, on the other hand, to be assumed that the j steamer was of considerable value to the British government, since it was so guarded. The commander could see no neutral markings on it of any kind—that is, distinctive marks painted on the free board recognizable at a distance, such as i are now usual on neutral ships in the English zone of naval warfare. In con- j sequence he arrived at the conclusion from all the circumstances that he ha;l to deal with an English steamer, sub merged and attacked. The torpedo came in the immediate neighborhood of one of the convoy ships which at once rapidly approached the point of firing so that the submarine was forced to go to a great depth to avoid being rammed; the con clusion of the commander that an Eng lish convoy ship was concerned was in this way confirmed. That the attacked steamer carried the American flag was first observed at the moment of firing the shot. The fact that the steamship was pursuing a course which led neither to nor from America was a further rea son why it did not occur to the com mander of the submarine that he was dealing with an America ship. “Unfortunate Accident” “Upon scrutiny of the time and occur rence described, the German government has become convinced that the attacked ship was actually the American steam j ship Gultlight. There can he no doubt, according to the attendant circumstances, that the attack is to be attributed to an j unfortunate accident and not to the 1 fault of the commander. The German government expresses its regrets to the 1 government of the United States con corning this incident and declares itself ready to furnish full recompense for the damage thereby sustained by American citizens. It is left to the discretion of i the American government to present a statement of this damage or, if doubts may arise over individual points, to d?s ignate an expert who would have to de 1 terminc, together with a German expert, i the amount of the damage. “It lias not been possible by means of an inquiry to clear up fully the case of j tire American ship Cushing. Official re ports available report only one merchant steamship attacked by a German flying i machine in the vicinity of Xordhind lightship. The German aviator was forced to consider the vessel as hostile because it carried no flag, and further, because of no recognizable neutral mark ings. The attack of four bombs was of course not aimed at any American ship, j However, that the ship attacked was the American steamer Cushing is possible, j considering the time and place of the I occurrence; nevertheless the German gov ernment accordingly requests of the American government that it communi cate to the German government the ma terial which was submitted for judgment in order that wUhjyhis as a basis a fur ther position can-be taken in the matter. "The undersigned leave it to the am bassador to bring the foregoing to the immediate attention of his government j and takes this opportunity to renew to him the assurance of his most dlstin guished consideration.”

NOTE TO BE SENT MONDAY (Continued from Page One.) I followed. The alternative course is not stated, but it is now generally known that the United States, in the event of an unfavorable reply will discontinue diplomatic relations with Germany. As to German Reply The note sets aside as irrelevant all j the contentions of the German reply of last Saturday, except one—whether the Lusitania was armed—and re-states I the position taken by the United States previously that the Lusitania after of ficial investigation by competent in spectors sailed from an American port i with no guns aboard, either mounted j or unmounted. It further calls Ger many’s attention to the fact that the I Lusitania did not attempt any resist ance, being torpedoed without a mo ment’s warning. Gulflight Communication The arrival of a communication from the German government today express ing regret for the atack on the Amer ican steamer Gulflight. offering to pay indemnity as soon as a claim is pre i sented and details arranged and mak ing a further promise to take into con sideration any facts which the United Statrs may have on the dropping of bombs by German airmen upon the American steamer Cushing, made un I necessary any discussion of these cases in the new note to Germany. The United States had not, for that mat ter, been disposed to discuss in the new note any of these cases. When the principles of the main issues, the sub marine warfare on merchant ships— I are settled, the Lusitania and Falaba ceses, in which more than 100 Amer icans lost their lives, will be taken up. Cabinet Meeting Secretary Bryan had a private confer ence with President Wilson before the cabinet meeting began. Counsellor Lan sing, who had prepared some of the memoranda on which the new note is based, was invited by tile President to sit at the table and advise on points of International law which might arise. The meeting lasted two hours and at its conclusion all the members, it was said, had agreed to the principle set forth in the note. It was stated that the sending to Emperor William by Count Von Bemstorff, the German ambassador, of Meyer Gerhard, an attache of the German colonial office, as special envoy to carry messages from the embassy and to outline the American point of view to the government at Berlin, would not delay the dispatch of the American note. In German quarters here, however, it is expected that the reply win be with held until Gerard has arrived and ex plained the situation. This It is estimat ed. will take at least a fortnight, as the boat on which the envoi- sailed would not bring him to Denmark much sooner. A VON BERNSTORFF'S SPECIAL EMISSARY SAILS FOR GERMANY New York, June 4.—Meyer Gerhard, who is understood to be the agent Ambassador von BernstorfT is send ing to Berlin, sailed yesterday abaord the steamer United States for Co penhagen, it became known here to day. Mr. Gerhard's accommodations aboard the vessel were engaged by wire from Washington less than two hours before sailing time and Mr. Gerhard reached the pier about five minutes before the vessel cast off. Official documents bearing the embas sy or consular seals of Great Britain, Russia and France, giving him guar antee aginst molestation by officials of the allies’ warships while on the way, were in his possession. Other wise it was said he would not have been permitted to take passage, as the line has been at great pains to ex clude from its passenger list anyone whose name or connections might cause delays or detention of the ship by war vessels en route to her des tination. Mr. Gerhard registered under his oowti name giving his home as New York City. Whether he is an Ameri can citizen was not known. He car ried, in addition to the official docu ments signed by representatives of the allies' governments, official documents signed by American, German and Austrian authorities, the nature of which was not ascertainable today. It was assumed, however, that the Ger man and Austrian documents were his credentials to the German govern ment. At the hotel where Count von Bernstorff stays when in New York, it was said today that Mr. Gerhard had been registered there but had left yesterday saying he was going to Washington. His quarters at the hotel were still being held for him to Aay. VON JAGOW’S BELIEF CONCERNING AM’N NOTE AND GERMAN REPLY Berlin, June 4.—(Via London, 12.30 P. M.).—The Krcuz Zeitung in its issue of today publishes the substance of the in terview given to The Associated Press Way 30 by Gottlieb von Jagow, imperial foreign secretary, on Germany’s answer to the Washington note concerning the Lusitania case, in which the secretary said he believed it essential to establish a common basis of fact before entering upon a discussion of the issues involved. This is done, the paper explains, on the strength of the report reaching Ber lin, through the Reuter Telegram Co. of London, that the "forthcoming American note to Germany foreshadows a sever ance of diplomatic relations with Ger many." Continuing the Kreuz Zeitung says: "We want to remind America once more that Great Britain bears the re sponsibility for the submarine war. Ger many would have stopped it had Great Britain been willing to give up her war of starvation. At one time America could have exerted pressure on Great Britain to this end, but it did not do so. "Xow that the war of starvation has failed, America comes forward with the unusual proposal that we shall stop the submarine war. Naturally there can be no talk of this. Foreign Secretary von Jagow has pointed out what can be done for the safety of American passengers and American ships. Americans again have been shown the way to reconcilia tion and the protection of their real in terests. “But It appears as if one may trust the reports about the new note, that they do not wish to find this way, but rather do they desire to lend their moral sup port to Great Britain, in whose interests they long ago gave up real neutrality. Let them do it! The value of diplo matic relations with the United States has to us become rather imaginary.” Sporting News of the Day FEDERAL LEAGUE BROOKLYN DIVIDES A DOUBLE WITH BUFFALO Buffalo, June 4.—Buffalo and Brook lyn divided honors in a double-header here today, the visitors winning the first game, 9 to 3, and the locals the second, 6 to 3.

Address all communications relating tq subscriptions and advert i«,«nient* to Kennebec Journal Company, Publishers, Augusta, Maine. Saturday, June 5, 1915. The Retaking of Prsemysl. The editorial war writer of an ex change reviews the recent history of Przemysl and the tremendous cost of attempting to hold and to take that strategic point. For 271 days the fighting has raged with the place as the prime objective. It is not im probable that the Slavic forces will again attempt to drive the Teutons from the fortress. The capture by Germanic forces does not mean that a decisive battle has been fought or that Russia will not rush reinforce ments to that field for the purpose of halting or forcing back, the mighty wedge withdrawn by the Kaiser from the French border to effect the cap ture of Przemysl. The Russians held Przemysl seventy days, the last three weeks under siege. The capitulation of Przemysl must be ascribed to the effectiveness of the artillery onslaughts. When j the Russians starved out the Austrian garrison at Przemysl, an operation which brought them into the fortress on March 22, they did It slowly and systematically conserving the lives of their men, as much as possible. The method which the Austro-Germans have been employing recently to ac complish the same end has been en tirely different. Their expenditure in men and ammunition has, perhaps, outdone anything in this war, not even excepting the German rushes for Calais and the terrible struggle along the Yser River, when Przemysl fell into the hands of the Russians on March 22. it had undergone a siege j lasting 201 days. The Austrian garrison originally consisted of 170,000 men, of whom 40, 000 were killed. About 120,000 Aus trians surrendered when the fortress capitulated. These included 2602 of flcers*and officials, and 117,000 men. Immediately after the surrender of the Austrian garrison the Russians began a westward rush through Ga licia, jmd it was predicted that they would soon overrun both Silesia and the plains of Hungary. A terrific Austro-German offensive was inaug urated, however, the result of which was to drive the Russians back to the San and to enable the Teutonic allies to encircle Przemysl and attack it from the north and the «southeast. The strength of the Russian garrison within the fortress has not been known in London. For the first time in this war, the Germans in their latest advance on ‘‘'I Przemysl have adopted a new tactical formation for attack. The new for mation is likened by Russian military experts to the Macedonian phalanx, with this .difference, that it is com posed, not of individuals but of divi sions and army crops. This phalanx, in the advance from Cracow, moved along the line of the Iaslo-Rzeszow railway and, according to Petrograd, included ten full army crops, -of w hich five, forming the main striking head, were picked troops withdrawn spe cially for the purpose from the French front. The phalanx was superabun dantly provided with artillery, includ ing a large number of heavy bat teries. For example, twenty-four battalions of the Prussian Guard. Corps had with them forty batteries, half of which were of heavy calibre. This ancient battle formation had naturally a tremendous drvlhg force, but it was deprived of any. great possibilities of tactical movement by the fact that it was chained to a line of railway whereby alone it ‘could maintain its supplies and munitions. The rate of movement of the pha lanx cannot have exceeded four miles a day, in the opinion of Russian ex perts. But its momentum was irre sistible, and it was this phalanx for mation which forced the crossing of the San River at Lezachow, assisted by an Immense flotilla bf aeroplanes. The Germans, in withdrawing many of their best troops from the French front, filled the gaps necessarily left there with overpowering technical su periority. Thus, where the Germans find themselves opposed by a thou sand men and two machine guns, they post a hundred men and twenty manchine guns, confident that by con tinuing on the defensive with an ex tended use of the technical adjuncts Of warfare they can safely withdraw their best troops for temporary ser vice elsewhere. Colonel Colomonoff, the bfst known new’spaper military expert In Petro grad, discusses the French position in his latest article. Pressure from two Sides, he says, is an elementary prin ciple of coalition warfare. In the fighting of the present month, the Russians have drawn upon themselves enormous masses ,of first-grade Ger man troops withdrawn from the west front. Naturally the French have tried to reply by putting 'renewed pressure upon the weakened enemy facing them. But extra ‘rapidfirers, extra artillery and the use of gases, K A i are taking the place of men In the German line on the west, and for this reason the French attempts at exert ing pressure have shown no signs of relieving the Russians. It is apparent from such a con sideration of conditions that Germany and Austria must maintain great forces where Russia is determined to sweep on into Austria, at the same •time they are holding against the French and English on the west and Italy on the south and In the Adriatic. After ten months is Germany better prepared to advance than at any previous time? Will Germany count the cost of arousing the economic ac tivities of America against her, with the instant increase of arms and sup plies for the Anglo-French allies? Germany and Austria have won a “victory” (at awful cost) which may not be minimized, yet the world will not deem this fierce and exhaust ing attempt as In any degree de cisive. It is more apt to arouse Rus sia to greater exertions to redeem herself in the eyes of her allies and the world. IA other words, could Germany afford to throw away thou sands of her most superior fighting men to recapture the fortress of Przemysl? i Facts for Farmers. Consul General Frederick M. Ryder, Winnipeg, Canada, reports that much of the heavy-stock cattle fram all parts of Manitoba received at the Union stock-yards in Winnipeg is be ing purchased by American buyers. The first shipment consisted of 943 head of what Is known as "heavy stockers,’’ mostly yearlings, and was consigned to Billings, Montana, the latter part of April; another ship ment of about 400 head, 'destined f4 cfents a pound, and this despite the severe handicap of decreased ocean tonnage and the consequent In crease in freight rates from South American countries. For the nine months ending March, 1914, six months under Democratic law, the importations of fresh meats were 90, 000,000 pounds, average entry value 8% cents a pound. These imports rose to 193,600,000 pounds by June of that year. During the 18 months operation of the Underwood law up to March, 1915, 377,600,000 pounds of fresh meat came Into the United States without paying one cent of duty. Fresh meat imports tinder Republican law were so negligible that they were not separatey listed, but it is estimated that less than 10, 000,000 pounds were imported for 1913. The effect of these large imports un der a Democratic tariff law was not to lower the price of fresh meat to the consumer, but to cripple the mar ket for the farmer and stockraiser. Praemysl was but an Incident of this mighty conflict. Its fall does not in dicate the death of “the bear that walks like a man,’’ or that Germany and Austria can now withdraw aajj^ i -M.He part of their forces there. But the diffused and minified tfood of Slav and Teuton now flood the soil for miles around—and Przemysl may "fall” again before many days. Some man left an artificial leg In the rear of a Washington bar-room the other day. It has always been admitted that if a man drinks enough he will go to pieces.—Ellsworth American. We’ve heard men say, "I’m drier ’n a cork leg.” Probably that is why the man kept on drinking and the leg didn’t. We wish some of these experts like Ed Pointer or Squire Wormwood who can spell the word with their eyes shut or pronounce it, standing or ly ing, would give us the abbreviation of Przemysl. Perhaps the reason for Balkan hesi tancy to Jump into the fray is because they have had a glimpse of hell in re cent years. When this cold snap is ended, then When you declare your baggage don’t forget the value of the trunk. Now Denver’s “personal liberty” crowd defies the state-wide law. Maine Gossip Coming end Going. (Elizabeth Powers Merrill.) Souls are coining and going! Some souls sail into life’s bay Just as others are leaving For a shore, ah, far away. Souls are coining and going From a land that no one knows To a land no mortal .sees. On a tide that ceaseless flows. Souls are coming, O hear them. Hear passionate human cry Of the souls plunged into life From Gardens of Sleep on high, Plunged into loving, striving Plunged into sorrow and pain. O God what must they suffer Until they plunge out again. Souls are going, speak to them— Bid them a final farewell! They go from bournes of earth-life To a bourne no man can tell— Out of loving and hoping. Out of all sorrow and woe. Out of the pangs of living. They fade into death’s purple glow. Souls are coming and going. They come on a laden tide— They go—God’s depths call to them, They go where the dead abide. Souls are coming and going— Cry Hail and give long Farewell,— Is Birth, or Death, the fafrer? Only God Himself can tell!

Sherbrook Howard of Bath is com pleting at his home a racing canoe similar to the racing canoes used on Long Island Sound. It is built with a cockpit and a sliding board that exte’nds out amidship over the water and has two masts. On the midship board the captain, who is also the cook, crew and steward of the craft takes his seat while sailing the boat. He wears a bathing suit and is pre pared for duckings.

Might be a good idea for the Allies to secure the services of the Cam bridge correspondent of the Pittsfield Advertiser, since he has announced his feelings as follows: We should judge from the weather and its effect the past week that the weatherman is a German. We have an apple trees that bore full last year of nice early apples and has blos somed full this spring, in fact it was the whitest tree we ever saw—looked like a huge cornball. The freeze of Thursday morning made the blossoms oh the north and west part look as if they had been through a fire; those on the southeast part looked all fresh Later in the day he let in that north west “Free Trade1' wind and broke down the part he couldn’t freeze. He meant to have torpedoed us for we were within a rod of the tree when the crash came, nor is this all the dirty tricks he played. We had an acre or more of cedar bushes that we had broken down on frosty mornings the past winter. He blew about half of them over the fence into our mow ing field and piled the rest onto the fence; then to cap the whole he blew the fence down. Then seeming satis fied with our part he passed on and over onto the Dexter road and finding Alvin Hilton alone with his children he blew off and otherwise mutilated the roof of Mr. Hilton’s bank What worse could a German do? Not in the least frightened by the fate of the Portland boy who lassoed a trolley car and escaped death or ser ious injury by the promptness of a passenger who rtast off the rope, an other Portland lad has succeeded in bagging a fractured shoulder while playing much the same game.

Sheriff Wilbur C. Oliver of Sagada hoc county has had many compli ments for the faithful performance of his official duties, but it Is safe to say that he will prise none of them so highly as the following tribute to hl3 honesty and loyalty, printed June 3 in the Bath Times: WUbur C. Oliver of the Bath Gal vanising Works turned down a small fortune this morning in de clining to accept an offer which would have netted him $12,000 profit, to sell his stock of spelter to a concern in Buffalo. Mr. Oliver made a verbal contract this spring wltlT President Hyde of the Bath Iron Works to galvanize the two torpedo boat des troyers now being buijt here. The forty tons of spelter now in his big tank, if sold, would give him a profit of $10,000 and other metal on hand would increase the amount $2000 more. Mr. Oliver turned the offer down by telegraph this morning, and in his message stated "Cannot ac cept ofTer as by so doing I would have to go back on my friend.*’ Mr. Oliver was started in business twen ty years ago by General T. W. Hyde of the Bath iron Works, father of Hon. John S. Hyde, the present presi dent o'f the Works. The largest salmon taken by a sportsman this year in Maine waters was landed this week at the Bangor salmon pools by M. J. Daley of Bur lington. Vt„ who, although he says “I never saw a live salmon before,*’ unaided and after an hour’s fight landed a 24tfc-pound Beauty. He had plenty of advice from the other fish ermen to allow an expert land the fish, but he decided “to do or die” and did it. Twice he went to shore and tried to yank the monster to land, but without success. He had 200 feet of line, but at one time, over 185 feet of the line were out and there was a very good chance of the fish taking pole and all. With remarkable skill and patience, the third time at shore, the salmon was finally landed and Mr. Daley was busy receiving con gratulations. Other salmon captured at the pool this season range from eight to 18 pounds in weight, so this one breaks the record by over six pounds. Following the above incident Ban gor then turned her attention to for est game. About 5.30 A. M.

U.S. Consuls and Agents Are Ordered to Secure and to Submit Mexican Reports Work of Red Cross Is Facilitated— Foreigners Are Leaving Mexico City by All Available gleans Washington, Juno 4.—American con suls arid consular agents through Mex ico were instructed l>y telegraph to day to send to the state department immediately full reports on present conditions in the territory under their observation. These reports, covering ev ery section and all factional jurisdic tions, will facilitate the work of the American Red Cross in relieving Mex ico's starving civil population and at the same time aid the government in developing the next step in its policy toward the contending military ele ments. Steps already taken by Red Cross officials were approved at a meeting of the executive committee of the soci ety today, and it was decided to send S. P. Morris, acting national director, to Mexico City to lake charge of re lief work there and as far as possible to supervise the society's activities in Central Mexico. According to present plans, Mr. Morris will sail from New York for Vera Cruz next Thursday on the steamer Morro Castle.. Work on the border will be directed by Brig. Gen. Devol, general manager of the Red Cross, who expects to leave for Texas In a day or two. The gener al will have the co-operation of all consular officers, as well as of the commanders of border military posts. Secretary Garrison today ordered that tho arnfy warehouses, with their fa cilities for loading and unloading, be placed at the disposal of the Red Cross agents who are assembling food sup plies. Reports from Mexico City today told of the movement of Americans and other foreigners from the capital by horseback and automobile to points where they could take trains for Vera Cruz. So far the Brazilian minister has not arranged for the proposed special train to take 150 or more American to the east coast. Details of the fighting around Silao, whence Villa drove part of Obregon’s forces Wednesday, con tinued to reach the Villa agency dur ing the day. It is believed that a de cisive engagement probably is being fought now between the main bodies of the contending armies about Trin idad. BRITISH AND DANISH STEAMERS kTORPEDOED BY SUDMARINES OF GERMANS--ALL CREWS ARE SAVED J Falmouth, June 4.—The British i steamer Inkum, from New York to London, was torpedoed at 4:30 o'clock this morning 43 miles southwest of I Lizard Head. The crew was landed l here by the Norwegian steamer u Weivda. f Nn submarine had been observed when a terriffic explosion shook the t vessel, which began to settle. The crew took to the boats, but the steam er settled so slowly that some of them returned to the ship hoping that they might save her.

In the town of Windsor and within a half mile of the city limits in a lonely forest, by the side of a huge gray boulder and shadowed by towering pines which bow their stately heads and wave their green branches in mournful rhythm as they chant a per petual requiem above it, is the grave of Dr. Stephen Barton. I Not long ago a representative of the 1 Journal while hunting in the woods I about here came upon this lonely mound, and seeing in this secluded j spot the foundation for a romance of ye olden days, or a chapter of early his i tory he at once brought his camera into requisition and soon succeeded in i securing a most excellent photograph which is here reproduced. Subsequent inquiries served to bring j cut the following narrative of the i founder of the Barton families of i Windsor and a glimpse of pioneer life in Maine. The Barton family, like so many of our early New England families is of j English ancestry. From papev no v in the possession of the descendants of Dr. Stephen Barton this family is traced back to the fourteenth century. I Among these papers is found a record of the death of William of York who died in 14'k) and was buried in St Peters cathedra! at Old York and of Roger Barton, a priest of St. Peters, who died some years later and was buried in St. Peters, also of Henry de Barton, treasurer of Ht. Peters at York Old England, who died in 1360. I Barton Manor in Lancashire, Eng land. was one of the largest estates in that section and its lands were rented to no less than twenty tenants. The Barton family was in the height of its power during the reign of Edward I. The Bartons of Barton have upon their armorial bearings the boar’s head, which was at that time one of the proudest emblems of heraldry, and was assumed by both warrior and huntsman. Their coat of arms was u: use for more than two and one-half centuries before the college of arms was established, and to this day the i descendants of the house of Barton I point with pride to the motto en graven upon their ancient shield, and "Fide et Fortitudine’’ is still their watchword. It is not, however, with the Bartons 'of England that we have to do: our interest lies rather with Samuel, a I younger member of the family who i emigrated to this country in the I seventeenth century and settled In Salem, Mass., where he is heard from as an important witness in a "trial for witchcraft.” Later he removed to Oxford. He was one of the original grantees of the town of Oxford in 1733, and also one of the founders of the first church erected there. Of the eleven children born, to him and his j wife, Hannah Bridges, two or more served in the war of the Revolution. His son Edmond married Anne Flynt j of Salem, and to them with other sons and daughters was born the subject of this sketch. In early life Stephen Iff1 i-warl'ii evinced a fondness for anatomical re search and expressed a desire to de vote his life to the healing of the sick. Accordingly at a proper age he became a student of Dr. Greene of Oxford, and on completing the required course of study he entered upon the practice of his profession at Oxford Centre. Here he married "the beauti ful Dorothy Moore,’’ a daughter of j Capt. Elijah Moore, a prominent citl sen of the town. Local history records j that "Dr. Barton and his charming wife were well educated people.’’ Of this union four sons and six daughters were born. Three of these daughters married men whose names are well known in this State. Pamela married Benjamin Porter of Vienna, Clarissa became the wife of Richard Foster, a j noted punster and rhymester in his day, who figures as the hero of a tale told by Holman Day in his volume of verse "Up in Maine.” Parthenia, married Ruel Pitts of Au i gusta who greatly endeared himself1 to her family by the depth of his de votion to his gentle bride for the few months ere death claimed her for his own. t As early as 1767 we find Dr. Barton coming to Maine, and exploring the country along the Kennebec river. In a diary which he opened at Seguin, he states that he first came to a place called Seguin at the mouth of the Kennebec river. This place lie! j tells us was in latitude 43 by 44. Re- turning to his home in Oxford the I doctor added to his duties as a med- ical practitioner that of Landlord of the old Tavern. Although the names of families prominent in the early his i tory of Massachusetts are found upon his old ledger, it is apparent that the: i doctor's income ^rom his profession was not sufficient to meet the require-! j me.nts of his rapidly, increasing fam ily. Whether he was induced to try his fortunes in Maine with the houe of bettering his financial condition, or from a desire on the part of his wife j to he nearer her sister Martha who1 had married William Ballard and was then living at Augusta is not known, i However, this may have been in 1776 we find tiie family settled in the town of Vassalboro, Maine, where the doctor was practicing his profession and oper ating a store for general merchandise to eke out his meagre income. That the doctor’s practice extended over a wide range is evident from the charges in his old ledger. He visited families in Winthrop and Hallowell, at Fort Halifax and Fort Weston. That I his practice was not remunerative is j equally evident, from the charges made in his day book, which are made i in shillings and pence according to the custom of the time. As a sample of the daily routine of the old-time doetor we copy the fol lowing items: 1776, April 24, Remington Hobby: To visit your negro.'.2s, lOd To pulling tooth, yourself 8d 1776, May 27th, Asa Phillips: To visit and bleeding your wife .Is, lOd June lath, Daniel Fairfield!*“ To visit and attend your son.6s, Sd June 12, to helping make coffin for same 2d The doctor in addition to his medical services was frequently called on to act in a legal capacity, writing the last will and testament for a patient whose case was hopeless. He also j served*as amanuensis, writing letters i to absent members of the bereaved j family which death had entered. In one instance he attends a mother i in child-birth: two days later he fur nishes "coffin” for the same, and within the week he makes a cradle for the infant thus early left motherless. He hangs pigeon nets, and wrrites deeds for his neighbors. For several years he holds the office of Town Clerk, twice he goes to Bos ton to represent his town at the Mas sachusetts General Court. That the disease now known as tu berculosis fastened itself upon the doc tor while living here is inferred from an entry in Granny Ballard’s diary, in- which she records a visit from Brother Rarton and Dear Sister Dor j othy, and adds that she is “anxious j about poor Brother Barton who coughs j badly and seems quite feeble.” The j Diary of this remarkable woman, flg ures largely in the early history of j Kennebec County, and is held as a choice possession by her descendants, among whom are the Lambard fami lies of Augusta. That the doctor was i a fearless practitioner Is apparent from j the frequency with which he resorted to "bleeding and purging in the treat i ment of his patients” as well as the doses of "mercury” that he considered safe to administer. About 1790 he returned to his early home in Massachusetts, where he con tinued to reside until 1803 when worn and weary he again turned his face towards the wilds of Maine, seeking strength and relief from the healing balm of her pine forests, accompanied by his younger sons, Elijah and Gid eon. On arriving at Gardiner they left the vessel which had brought them hither and starting across the rough country they traveled eastward, over stumps and rocks, through tangled thickets and dense forests until night overtook them in a pine woods deep and dark. Worn out with the long tramp they decided to camp here for the night and when they had eaten of the simple food with which they were provided and had quenched their thirst at the spring nearby; wrapped in their blankets they lay down by the side of a great rock, and were soon lost in slumber. On the morrow they arose greatly refreshed by a night's rest, and taking a survey of their surround ings, they found themselves in the midst of a large tract of old growth pine, many of the trees measuring four feet in diameter, at the foot of the forest flowed a brook of clear water, well stocked with fish, while just beyond lay a strip of rich inter vale. The freshness of the morning air, the song of the birds, the warmth of the sun, the scent of the pines; with an appreciation of their value when converted into lumber, with sufficient water power at hand to operate a mill for manufacturing it. Surely Nature had provided lavishly for their needs. What better site could a man wish for the founding of a new home. The scene appealed so strongly to the doc tor that he lost no time in preempting two hundred acres of this choice sec tion. With the help of his two sons he at once commenced to erect a dwelling. This rude cabin was built on an elevation of land over which the road now runs. The father of the writer has often pointed out the very spot to her, saying, “Right here in the middle of the road, I was born in the old log-house that grandfather built.’’ Although pioneers, the Barton family was not the first to settle in this wil derness. Jacob Harriman came in 1796 and Jesse Harnman soon alter. A little later these families were fol lowed by Isaac Marsh, Rufus L. Choate, Simeon Morton, Julian Sproul and Thomas Rhines. By these fam ilies Dr. Barton was held in hign es teem. Being a man of powerful phy sique and great dignity of bearing, whenever a disturbance arose at a “log-rolling/' "a raising/’ or “on warm ing-day,” the appearance of the doctor upon the scene was sufficient to re store quiet even after his strength had departed and his voice had become so feeble that he spoke with the utmost difficulty. In the two years that he lived among his fellow pioneers, Dr. Barton proved himself a true friend and wise councilor, and when in OCu 1805 his weary frame was laid to rest beneath the murmuring pines, the grief of the little settlement seemed greater than thy could bear. At this time his son Gideon made the following entry in his note book. "Dr. Stephen Barton and his two sons, Gideon and Elijah accepted the hospitality of this rock, beside which, at his own request he now lies in Christian repose.” At this time the town of Windsor was known as New Waterford. In 1809 it was incorporated under the name of Malta. In 1820 the name was changed to Gerry. Two years later it was again changed to the name which it now bears. Not long after the death of her hus band, the widow of Dr. Barton re turned to her native town in Massa chusetts and while on a visit to her son Stephen,—the father of Clara Bar ton—she passed away at the age of 92 years. In a letter to her son Elijah announcing the death of his mother, her grandson the late Judge Ira Barton of Worcester, writes of her as follows: “Grandmother was truly a remarkable woman. Springing from the first fam ilies in Oxford, she was called to pass through a great variety of changes of fortune and has finally returned after a long and weary pilgrimage to sleep by the side of those who gave her birth.” The brothers, Elijah and Gideon, continued to reside in the log cabin clearing and cultivating the land anil operating the saw mill which they had built upon the stream. On June 18, 1808, a son was born _o Elijah and his wife Sally Fairfield, ■"Squire Fairfield’s ’colored woman.' Experience, came to nurse the mother and infant bringing consternation to the little settlement, so few of its members had before seen the dusky features and the turbaned head of an African “mammy.” A few months later Sally Pierce, the wife of Gideon, gave birth to a son. and these young cousins with united voices proclaimed the advent of a new generation in the wilderness. Elijah enlisted early in the war of 1812 and continued in the service un til its close, when he was mustered out at Sackett’s Harbor. It is said of him that when he stood full six feet tall in his uniform there was not a nobler looking soldier in the ser vice. On his return from the war, old and weary before his time, from the hardships which he had endured, he settled on land contiguous to his brothers’ estate which on his death descended to his eldest son, William C„ or Squire Barton as he was fa i miliarly called, was a man of strict integrity, a successful farmer and business man, his influence was felt throughout the county and It was during his service as county commis sioner that the jail was built at Au gusta. Of his seven children who lived to maturity four still survive, Mrs. James H. Cox of Vienna, N. J., Mrs. Albert A. Hall of West Medway, Mass., Mrs. James M. Rogers of "Wel lesley, Mass., and Mrs. Charles E. Smith of Thorndike. Maine. His only son, the late John H. Barton, came into possession of the original estate with the additional acres of Lone Maple Farm now owned and occupied by his daughter. Miss Stella Barton. Gideon lived on in the log house until the little cabin overflowed with children and in 1830 the frame house which still stands was built across the road and room was provided for his family of thirteen children. Here he resided until his death, honored and esteemed by all who knew him. A man of deep piety and one of the founders of the Baptist church in Windsor, the name of Deacon Barton will long be held In reverence. His eldest son Samuel took an ac tive part in the affairs of his town and after having reared six daughters and an equal number of stalwart sons he found time to represent the Wind sor class in the legislature at Au gusta. Theodore, a younger son assumed the management of the old home stead and it was here that his father died at an advanced age. With the passing of Theodore on February 1902 a shadow which can never be lifted fell upon the old homestead. There is now none of the Barton name to greet us upon the threshold. The voice that calls a cheery greeting to the passerby is not the Barton voice. The old place has not, however, fallen Into stranget hands, the present owner being Mr. Edward H. Mosher of Augusta, who married Viola, the only daughter of SOAP Everybody can see that Star Soap is the biggest cake on the market. And the quality is there too. (The premiums speak for themselves.)

The truth of David Harum’s saying: i “There’s as mucli human nature in some folks as there is in others, if not more,” was demonstrated a few days ago in the case of two girls of per haps 16 summers who were standing in front of one of the windows of a Wa ter street dry goods store. The window dresser had Just been arranging the forms in the window for a display of costumes and wish’ng to change the position of one form he. put his arm around its waist and moved it to an other place. As he did so one of the girls who had been watching him was over-heard to remark to the other: “Gee, I wish his arm was around me.” MUNICIPAL COURT Dog C*se Claims Attention of That Tribunal Friday Afternoon Judge Lancaster was called upon Friday to pass judgment in a case that was to say the least, something of a novelty, inasmuch as it might be said that the case had for its origin an ac tion which was brought against a dog which in itself is probably without precedent in municipal circles in Au j gusta. The dog about which the details of the case clustered was no ordinary dog as dogs go, for it is generally under stood that fie would be listed in the dog book as a Scotch collie or some thing of that kind. The specific charge against the dog was that of assault, and the complainant was Harold Sav age, who alleged that the dog, which is owned by Odell Bubar, did assault hint Wednesday, June 3, while outside of his owner's premises and try to bite him, although the dog did not succeed. The owner of the dog was in court and was represented by Benedict F. Maher. Several witnesses were introduced to show that the dog was vicious and the general trend of the testimony indicat ed that his reputation in the neighbor hood in which he resided was not of the best. After hearing the evidence the court disposed of the case by or dering that the dog be removed beyond the city limits within £4 hours. The counsel for the owner of the dog wish ed to enter an appeal but the court ruled the case was not appealable. Other business before the court for the day was the case of a Togus vet eran who had absorbed too much stim ulant on his way home from Boston on a furlough and had arrived in Au gusta much the worse for wear. He was arraigned before the court on the charge of intoxication and the case was disposed of by sending him over to the Home. Read!

The Certain Formula for Success What ia the secret of euceess of any organization, whether it be of labor or capital? The amount in the treasury. The treas ury to an organization occupies the same relation as a savings account to the individual. It protects an organization as it pro tects an individual. What would an organization be without a balance in the treasury? It would have as little standing as a man without a bank account. You can become prosperous and inde pendent by saving regularly. The path lies clearly before you and we urge you not to wait until you regret that you gave no thought to saving. Augusta Trust Co. Augusta Winthrop Madison STB0TNE juno2(Mt Thomas Musical Comedy Co.

All who wish to take part in the Children’s Day concert are requested to be present at the rehearsal at 3 o’clock this 'afternoon at the Penney Memorial church. The popularity of the Overland as well as the confidence placed in the company back of it is very clearly shown by the fact that three carloads of the 1916 >-rs were sold by the Ladd Automobile Co. of this city even before the dealers themselves had seen the new cars. Notice ad. in this issue.—Adv. The contract for building the new parsonage to be erected on the Pen ney Memorial Baptist church lot on Grove street has been awarded to C. A.

Crowell of the city car rier force of the Augusta postoffice I brought to the Journal office Friday afternoon a crab apple blossom that was something of a novelty, inasmuch I as it could hardly be distinguished from a wild white rose.

A pe culiar fact in connection with this •’rose” blossom was that while the other blossoms on the tree had reach ed maturity and fallen to the ground this one remained and yesterday af ternoon it was as fresh as if just op ened.

Hussey’s automobile had a close call from damage by fire at about 7.45 Friday morning while standing in front of the Brooks Hard ware Co. store on Water street, but the prompt and able assistance of people in the store and vicinity the blaze was extinguished before it had done any damage. The Are was due to the igniting of some gasoline vapor under the car where a considerable quantity of gasoline had been spilled, by a match which had been thrown into the street by someone after lighting a pipe or cigar.' The vapor ignited with a noise something like the backfiring of an auto and the car was enveloped in flame, but by the use of plenty of water the fire under the car where the gasoline on the pavement was burning was extin guished before It had done any dam age to the car or injured any of those people who were around it at the time of the explosion.

By special engagement the Thomas Musical Comedy Company will appear at the Opera House all next week. In putting on an entertainment to please the theatre going public, so many mistakes are made, as they keep going: on from season to season with the same tbiag,- never stopping to think or say, well what new ideas will I use this season, but not so with the Thomas Musical Comedy Company. As Viey are always inserting new ideas at all times, and pleasing the public by giving them a class of en tertainment that they crave for, and that is why they always look forward to the coming of Mr. Tom Thomas and his company, for they know full well that they will spend a pleasaii’ afternoon or evening in witnessing his production.

It was here last season and made a tine impres- I sion. The Torrington, Ct„ Register I says of it: La Tena’s Circus arrived here this morning and gave this afternoon an unusually good performance at Treat lot. The circus consists of three rings and several sideshows. The exhibi tion of wild animals was of special merit. In fact, the circus features its wild animals. The performance of these animals was inside a large steel cage. Another feature of great inter est was Captain Wesley's troupe of trained seals, which appeared for a year at the London Hippodrome. The most exciting act was that of Mile. Eugenie’s troupe of seven performing lions. Other features were Walter Allen and the famous herd of Downie ele phants. Herman Griggs and Olga Reid, equestrians; the Powel family of five wire artists. Captain Wilson and h«s riding tiger, Nemo. There were 28 acts In all. The circus has three bands and a calliope and eight tents. For a circus of its size it is of high quality* and thoroughly enjoy able for old and young. The verdict of those who attended this afternoon’s performance was that it was superior in a great many respects to Wheeler Brothers’ Circus, which was here last Saturday. This afternoon’s perform ance began at 2 o’clock. The performance this evening will begin at 8 o’clock, and it is expected that the large attendance of this af j ternoon will be equalled if not exceed ed. All who attend will find that the circus is as advertised in every re spect, and being somewhat out of the ordinary on account of the large num ber of wild animals exhibited, it will provide many interesting and original features. Makes Your Stuffed, Catarrhal Head Clear as a Bell When you wake in the morning plagued with the tortures of head colds and ca tarrh, head, nose and throat stopped up, air passages clogged with obnoxious ca tarrhal discharges that have collected during the night and you can hardly breathe—just put a little Hyomei Pocket Inhaler charged with the pleasant heal ing oil of Hyomei between your lips, j Hold it there while dressing and breathe i the medicated, antiseptic, germ killing air deep into your nose, throat and lungs with every breath you draw. By the time you are dressed your head will be clear as a bell, you will breathe with ease and comfort, eat your breakfast with a relish and go about your day’s work with a clear brain and steady eye. This clear smelling, germ destroying air of Hyomei penetrates deep down into every fold and crevice of the membran ous linings of your nose, throat and lungs where no liquid spray could possibly get and absolutely kills and drives out of your system every germ it finds there, heals the inflamed, swollen tissues and after the very tlrst trial you notice a wonderful improvement. A few weeks’ use and every catarrhal germ is killed and driven out of your system. Druggists everywhere think so well of Hyomei that they agree to give you a guarantee with every complete inhaler set you purchase that if it does not satis fy they will gladly return every cent you paid for it. but If using for the first time be sure to ask for the complete Hyomei Pocket Inhaler outfit as the smaller package does not contain the inhaler. Bowditch-Webster Co., or most any other reliable druggist will gladly supply you on request.—Adv. EXECUTOR’S NOTICE.

James, curator of the museum at the State House, has just receive'! a specimen of the finny tribe to add to the exhibits at the museum that seems to be in a class by itself and that will be something of a puzzle to name. The fish was sent to Mr. James by Forest Commissioner Ma9e, who in turn had received it from Guy C. Nelson of Canaan. Mr. Nelson has an eeling license and it is sup posed that the fish was taken in one of his eel traps. The fish, which has by Mr. James been preserved in for maldahyde, is 16 inches in length and is evidently a hybrid or cross between a fresh water cusk and a brook trout. The general shape of the fish sug gests a cusk, but in coloring it is more like a brook trout, having on each side eight or ten red spots and also the reddish belly of the trout. A remarkable peculiarity about the fish is that while a portion of its body is covered with the thick and slimy skin of the cusk, other portions show the thin delicate skin of the trout. The specimen is destined to attract a great deal of attention among the visitors at the museum. April Donations for Children's Home.

The Exercises The Ivy day exercises of the class of 1916, the serious part of Ivy day, open ed shortly after 2.30 o’clock Friday afternoon when the members of the Junior class, clad in cap and gown, and led by Class Marshal William D. Ireland of Stetson, filed slowly down the aisle of Memorial h^ll and took their places on the platform. Class Chaplain Robert Campbell, Jr., of Ev erett, Mass., then opened the program with a short prayer. Following music by Lovell's Orchestra, Guy W. Lead better, Junior class president, deliver ed a brief welcoming address on behalf of the class. Augusta Boy Orator Music again followed, after which Hayward T. Parsons of Augusta, class orator, delivered an excellent oration on "Modem Industrial Justice.” Mr. Parsons said in part: “Modern Industrial Justice.’ Hayward T. Parsons of Augusta. In the first half of the 19th century we find England undergoing a series of industrial revolts, we find labor revolting against capital and de manding a readjustment of industrial conditions, a readjustment by which justice and not greed should deter mine the standard treatment of the employee by the employer. As a re sult of this industrial strife we find a man coming forward and evolving a doctrine of justice which is working itself out today in our own industrial life, a doctrine which, by this fulfill ment in the present, gives evidence that this man—Thomas Carlyle—had established his theory on the funda mental basis of truth. For the cynic, for him who. with narrow-visioned eye, looks in on hu man society, and viewing only the avarice existent between man and man, declares that true and complete justice is an impossible thing—for this depressing individual Carlyle manifested little patience. Today such a person will tell you that the square deal of the employer is un known by the average employee; such a person will tell you that In many instances the justice of the employer has been returned by the injustice of the employee. But let us place this individual, as did Car lyle. among those who do not know "true justice from momentary ex pediency, do not see how Justice melts all manner of vested interest* and who do not realize that in the long run justice doth rule and reign and allows nothing else to rule and reign.” From people of this class, who do not recognize these funda mentals we receive in the present and can expect In the future only x cynical and pessimistic view of life. But from those of us. whom our friend the cynic will call rank ideal ists, from those of us who believe as did Carlyle that “justice although t may be many times delayed some day or two. some century or two yet in the last analysis is sure as life, is sure as death”—from such of us may be expected an optimistic view of the progress which justioe is now making in our own industrial life. We in America have also had our industrial troubles, revolutions of labor against the tyranny of capital, against the length of the working day, against the conditions under which labor must pass that day and finally against that most fundamental of all labor complaints—the wage re ceived at the end of that day. And in this last we have the basis of the whole disease, a disease which ex perience has proved incurable by any one single remedy, a disease of busi ness in which the tissues must be cut a way before the heart of industrialism is clearly exposed. And yet we have constantly been progressing, we have been cutting away the tissues, and gradually there has been evolving in the minds of the governing class a conception of justice which is ever seeking to free labor from the chains of serfdom under which it has suf fered and has ever been furthering our attainment of the ideal. In the course of this progress labor has been given a clean workshop and a satis factory working day and with the re moval of these tissues we have been nearing the heart of the whole mat ter. for after all the demand of all labor In all time, as Carlyle says, is a “fair day’s wage for a fair day's work.” And we in the present are remark ably fortunate to be living in an age when the foundation rather than the outlying structure of the fortress is being assailed, when this diseased heart of business is being treated. We should be proud of an age in which this final justice is being com prehended, a Justice which is awak ening a new responsibility in the em ployer, a justice which is making labor the partner rather than the slave of capital. Today we can point not only to our splendid governmental machinery, which is ever seeking to better busi ness conditions, but also to definite examples of this development of jus tice in the capitalistic body iteslf. We can point to men, heroes of big busi ness. in whose hearts true justice has asserted itself, men who because of this Justice have won the affections of their employees, men like N. O. Nelson, whose employees by virtue of his co-operation own one-fourth of the Nelson Manufacturing Company, men like J. S. Baker of the Baker Manufacturing Company in Evans vine, Wisconsin, in whose company profits are divided between labor and capital in proportion to the earnings of all active employees being partners of the concern, men like Henry Ford, who shares his profits annually with his employees. We can also point to concerns which have recognized a still deeper obliga tion, concerns which have made it possible for the laborer to be inde pendent when his day of usefulness haa passed, concerns which recognise the deeper Justice of a fair life's :wage for a fair life’s «work, concerns like the Harvester Company, the Bell Telephone Company, the United States Steel Corporation and many [others whjch maintain a pension, fund for uso by employees whose age forces them to retire from active work. And yet even with this evidence before us our friend the cynic will again come forward, will point to the exceptions and to the instances where employers have been moved by i other motives than the desire for justice, but may none of us be in fluenced by his doubts. Let us look at this matter from the optimistic focus, let us recognize that industrial Justice has been born, nurtured and is now nearing maturity; disturbed only a little by the growing pains ta which the cynic points. With these things in view does it not seem that the road along which we have been traveling has ever been leading to the ideal, has ever been broadening into that highway of industrial jus tice and honesty along which employ er and employee walk together to equal success and prosperity. In all of us there should be the de sire to further this progress, but it j becomes the sacred duty of the col lege man in particular to assume the initiative in the task of carrying on the torch of industrial justice. For there is an ever present debt between the man in the shop and the man in the school, and the man in the school is ever the debtor. In order that civilization may advance the rougher physical labor of society as well as the spiritual and mental toll must be performed. Great is the sacrifice made by those who assume the burden of performing this neces sary physical labor, a sacrifice of those advantages which every col lege man enjoys, a sacrifice which is ever becoming more significant as those advantages yearly become of Infinitely greater value, and above all a sacrifice which every college man should at any time be prepared to re pay. There is, then, this obligation which every man who has enjoyed scholastic training must meet, an obligation founded on the working man’s sacrifice of those priceless ad vantages which we who are in col lege now enjoy, an obligation repre sentative of a common bond of brotherhood which should be a con stant inspiration to every college man, an obligation which remains unfulfilled until the ideal has been attained, and complete industrial justice has been established. “Two men I honor and no third. First the toil-worn Craftsman that with earth-made Implement labori ously conquers the Earth and makes her man’s. Hardly entreat ed Brother! For us was thy back bent, for us were thy straight limbs and fingers so deformed; thou wert our Conscript on whom the lot fell and fighting c.ur battles wert so marred. “A second man I honor and still more highly: Kim who is seen toiling j for the spiritually Indispensable: not daily bread but the bread of life. If the poor and humble toil that we have Food, must not the high and glorious toil for him in return, that he have Light, have Guidance, Free dom, Immortality.’’ I The Class Poem After another orchestral selection. tVinthrop Bancroft of Framingham. Mass., class poet, delivered the 1915 class poem. Presentations Music followed, and then came the presentations: IV. P. Woodman of Pea body, Mass., received a vanity l ox in scribed to "Cutey”; John L. Baxter of Prunswick was given a gimlet for the “bore.” To Don J. Edwards of Portland, the "Smooth Proposition” of 1916, a package of sandpaper was presented, while Richard S. Fuller of Rockland, the “Matinee Idol” was awarded a contract. These four presentations were given entirely in a spirit fo good-na tured fun and are not at all to be con sidered as a personal matter. The last presentation of the day, the wooden spoon, was given to James A. Dunn of Malden, Mass., as the most popular man in the class. The wooden spoon, the insignia of “popular man,” is one of the most de sired favors a class has to bestow. In selecting James A. Dunn for "popular man” the class of 1916 has made, a very happy choice, for not only is he pop ular in his class, but his genial smile and quiet manner have marked him as one of the best liked men in Bowdoin. Mr. Dunn received his secondary edu cation at Berkley Preparatory school, and is a member of Zeta Psi Frater nity, the Friar’s, the Student Council and the Board of Managers. He was president of his class Sophomore year, and is manager of this year’s 'Varsity nine. He is also president of the M. I. B. B. A. and a member of the Gibbon’s Club. Mr. Dunn acknowledged his gift in a few well-chosen words. Ivy Planted After the conclusion of the exercises in Memorial hall the class marched to the east of the building, following the time-honored tradition of the college, a small sprig of Ivy was planted by the class president. After the planting of the ivy was finished, the class unit ed in the singing of the class ode which was set to the tune of "The Or ange and the Black” and was com posed by Ora I* Evans ’16 of Dover. The Class Ode The ode was as follows: We come, O Alma Mater, And to thee homage pay. As at a sacred altar We this our tribute lay. May the ivy, always clinging Around this hall of thine. To us bring yearly daily, A sense of love divine. If in the years before us. When we have wandered wide. There sometime comes upon us A longing for a guide. Our hearts and eyes upon thee. As on this Ivy day, May we in this find burning A lamp to light our way. (Sung to the tune of “Orange and the Black.”) Following the planting of the ivy the members of the Senior class filed into King’s chapel for their last attendance at a religious service as undergraduates of Bowdoin College. Here the regular chapel exercises were held as usual with the exception of the fact that the lower classes were not in their accustomed forms. Following prayer by President Hyde, A. Keith Eaton of Calais, Senior class marshal, gave the awaited signal and the last-year men rose to their feet in a body and filed down the aisle in lock step to the tune of “Auld Bang Syne.” Outside the building the class of 1916 was formed in a lane on either side of the walk to cheer the Seniors as they left the chapeL A realisation of the tact that their undergraduate days are nearly over seemed evident among the last year men, and their seriousness of aspect and thoughtfulness of manner made the ceremony one of the most impressive of the day. Ivy Hop The Ivy hop, always one of the most delightful events of the year, took place in the new gymnasium at 8 o'clock Fri day evening. The hall was very at tractively decorated with streamers of ribbon and potted plants. Each of the fraternities of the college and the Bow doin Club had Individual booths about the sides of the hall where the guests of the respective organizations might be easily found, while a long line of Morris chairs insured a comfortable position for the patronesses. Refreshments were served at intermission. Music was by Lovell's orchestra of Brunswick. The committee in charge of the hop consist ed of Edward P. Garland of Bangor, chairman; Kenneth T.
