X II.Jan. 9, 1862, he writes: “ I am not really

sick but have been poorly of late. I have been otl duty for some five days and have spent the time mostly away from camp. This rebellion is a most stupendous affair, none can know about it that are not conversant with such things, or are not on the spot of operations. We are spending millions every week. IIow long government will be enabled to go on this way is a problem I cannot solve. All I can say is this, the gov­ernment must be sustained or all are en­gulfed in one common ruin. If government is not sustained, property loses its value, the sun goes down for generations ami those who come after us will have a sorry prospect in view for home, a country and a government to sustain and protect them, as we have here­tofore been protected under the old llag. We have not yet made the first point in the whole contest. Tremendous operations are about being made by sea and land, on the Atlantic border and in the West. The result no one knows. I do not think we are much stronger than the South. They fight at home, we from home. They take from7the country over which they pass whatever they can find that they need. We buy and pay for it. We have to pay large sums of money, while they seem to get along without much of any.I confess 1 am at loss how to judge of the contest as the above are not all the things that tell agiinst us. There is no doubt but officers in the U. S. Army Regulars are now in pay of the Confederate Government They are among us and we know' them not We can do nothing that Jeff Davis does not know, even more than our most prominent generals. We are betrayed daily. Now about England. I think we have got to fight her or take all her insults. She is hound to ruin this government if possible, and now’ her most favorable time. I think she will improve it, if so all are ruined together. If it is su to be, then none can help it. This Mason and Slidell affair has terminated just

tr as I expected it would, for I thought theON YOUR F E E T . capture wrong. This government went to

war in 1812 for the very thing we have in this instance been guilty of. Nevertheless Eng-

I land’s doctrine has been such as to sustain 1 us in the Trent affair. Our own policy for 50 years has been in direct contradiction to it. But a few days will elapse before something

| else will turn up from which we as a nation cannot with honor recede, then the fight must come. These are my opinions; they are not worth much; I feel that I am nobody and am not disposed to say much anyway. Carver (L. D.) has arrived and has been telling me about his visit home. lie had a good time and I am glad of it. He is a good fellow.”

During the latter part of February, Berry*! whole regiment was frequently detailed for picket duty, and reconnaissances were also made by detachments of that regiment. Lieutenant Thomas B. Glover of Company B. anil Hospital Steward Charles S. McCobh, who were taken prisoners at Bull Run, now rejoined the regiment, as also did M. F. Sidelinger and A. T. Salsbury.

About this time a temperance moven^nt was started in Camp Knox, and some 500 of Berry’s Fourth Maine arrayed themselves against King Alcohol. The number included many commissioned officers. The regiment could also boast of a club of glee singers styled the “Berry Quartet Choir of the 4th Maine Regiment.” The music composed by S. K. Whiting was very popular and the regiment was justly proud of his productions. Among them were: “ Memories of Home,” with words by II. G. Tibbetts of Rockland, “Ole Massa on his Trabbles gone," and “ Home Visions.” ♦

LIFE IN CAM I.

I January 19, 1862, Colonel Berry writes:! “The weather here is awful, it rains most of ' the lime and 'tis dreadfully muddy. Can do

I* nothing but sit in our tents, which is lonely 1 enough. No drill, no marches, but a steady confinement to quarters. 'Phis weather will

1 probably last some weeks, during which can- ' not see how we can do anything; still there is ' talk of an advance as a simultaneous move­ment down the Mississippi by Halleck,

' through T ennessee to the Cumberland Gap by Buell, and an attack on the Wilmington & Weldon Railroad by Burnside, and on Nor­folk by Wool, Winchester in Virginia by Rosecrans, and lastly by McClellan to hold Beauregard in check at Manassas, to prevent him from sending troops to reinforce the other points which 1 have named. 1 have no doubt but decisive events will soon take place, but I think most of the lighting will be done West. You can look at my maps aud get the whole plan of the campaign. Bueil takes possession of the railroad through Cumber­land Gap, cutting off supplies from Manassas from that direction. The Atlantic expeditions, that line running south through Wilmington and Weldon, tie here to dispatch the passage into Maryland. Rosecrans in the mountains of Virginia, General Dix on the Eastern shore in Accomac ami Northumberland counties; when their armies ate once so placed, the sup­plies necessary for a large army cannot be obtained in so small a district as he (Beaure­gard) will have left, aud he cannot bold out but a very short tune. Such is the plan. God grant it may prove successful.”

Again he writes under date of Jan. 22,1862: “ 1 am still hard at work building earthworks, ride pits and breastworks. For nine nights 1 have slept scarcely an hour a night. Picket an<l artillery bring going, on all the time with­in a few hundred yards.”

Feb.3, 1862:—“ I was in Washington yester­day. The weather is still very stormy. It has been suowing since daylight, and is today more like home than any day thus far this winter. T he mud has been awful We sup­pose in Rockland that the mud is deeper than anywhere else, hut such is not the fact. The mud in Virginia exceeds in depth and sticki­ness any 1 ever saw; i& will fairly draw one’s

bools before giving way. Last night was Coin and the ground is now frozen. This will not last as the sun takes off the snow ‘by midday.

Feb. 9, 1862:—“Today has been a good nice day, the air very like April with us. We had our usual religious services, morning in­spection and dress parade in the afternoon, something new for us. as for many days it has rained or has been so muddy we have post­poned drills and military parades in order to keep the health of the Regiment good. I have no doubt but that the next few weeks will tell on the Rebellion wonderfully. My greatest anxiety is now that Burnside may do something handsome on the coast. If so we shall have the Rebels in Virginia in a tight place, flanked on both sides and their com­munications either cut oflor threatened, so no way will be left but to evacuate their stronghold. \ ou must remember that when once we get things moving favorably we shall make short work, as none can tell the disaster of a retreat especially to soldiers fighting with a halier around their necks as they are; all will be equally anxious to get home and out of the scrape. 1 do not think we shall have much lighting to do on this line, as the movements are mainly in the West. The government does not want in any way to jeopardize Wash­ington as it would be followed, if taken, by an immediate recognition by European powers.”

Feb. 12, 1862:—“ We have the news to­night of the capture of Roanoke Island by Burnside and o f the taking of some 10,000 prisoners, etc., etc. It seems that the spring campaign is to he on our side. A few such victories and the power o f the Rebellion is over, and the end will soon come. We are all quite well. Have not been doing much of late as the weather has been very bad until the last three days. We improve every good day in military drills, and shall one of these days be pretty good soldiers. The troops are joyous tonight over our recent victories in Kentucky and North Carolina. The cam­paign is working as I wrote you some days ago it would, t here is no doubt but all will go pretty well. We have occasional reverses, but the general plan will be carried through.”

Sunday, Feb. 17, 1862:—“This is an age of events and notwithstanding many things con­nected therewith may be unpleasant to all of us immediately connected with the great strug gle now going on, I hope and firmly believe that we will yet thank God that we have lived to participate in the events now transpiring among us. You will remember that I wrote a month since giving the plan of the campaign as I understood It. I did not derive the in­formation from any one, but will say it was simply my own plan or what I would have done had I had the command. I have en­deavored to study the art in which I am now engaged, and so far have hit pretty near. The next thing that will be done will be the taking by force or otherwise of Columbus (Ken­tucky,; next Knoxville and Nashville (Ten­nessee.) That done we have possession of the upper line of railroad to Manassas. Burn­side will take possession of the shore dr lower railroad leading into Virginia. After that Halleck and Commodore Foot will proceed down the Mississippi to New ( Orleans; Hunter through Arkansas to western Texas; Buell and Burnside will stretch an army across North Carolina to Tennessee. Manassas will be cut off from supplies and the force bagged, providing they do not retreat south into the cotton states before the cordon f soldiers are stretched across the country. We have no doubt about the result of the war. We shall wind up this Rebellion in ninety days. Then with the exception o f say one- fourth of our present force to maintain order, all will go home again. 1 have no doubt about the result of any battle that may be fought hereafter.”a

March 20, 1862, President Lincoln com­missioned Colonel Berry Brigadier General of Volunteers, to rank from March 17, 1862. Commenting on this well deserved promotion, the Rockland Ga z e iie of March 20, 1862, says: “ We learn with much satisfaction that the appointment of Colonel Hiram G. Berry of the Fourth Maine Regiment as Brigadier General was confirmed in the executive ses­sion of the Senate on Monday. We are pleased at the promotion, not only because it is gratifying to Colonel Berry’s friends and fellow citizens, but because we believe it an honor justly due to the merits of an able and efficient officer.”

II. G. Tibbetts of the Fourth Maine voices the feelings of that command in a letter to the Gazette. He says: “ We learned with mingled pleasure and regret of the promotion of Colonel Berry to the rank of a Brigadier General. Our pleasure was because we love to see those deserving of merit rewarded, and those whom we admire and respect promoted to that position where their talents can have full scope; and our regret was because when

Colonel shall leave us we shall sulier an parable loss. Those who have been our

companions through adverse circumstances and privations seem dear to us ever afterwards, and therefore ’tis natural that he, who has been at our head and looked out for our best interests in the most careful manner ever since the regiment was first organized, should occupy a large place in our hearts. While other regiments about us have languished and become disgraced by having unqualified and unworthy commanders, we have flourished and lived through the trying ordeal occasioned by Bull Run, and have come to that perfec­tion in arms when army officers who are pres­ent at inspections or parade are loud in their commendations; and even General Heintzelinan, who never says anything unless be means it, speaks of the Fourth Maine Regiment in the highest terms to General McDowell and the War Department. The natural military ability of Col. Berry, together with the amount of knowledge of warfare which he has acquired by studious application and practice since his entree into the service, eminently tits him for his new position,and there is no doubt that he will always prove himself an honor to his Slate it may be some weeks before he leaves us, aud many of us, 1 fear, arc selfish enough to hope that he may re­main with the regiment to the close of the war.”

Governor Washburn of Maine, in the fol­lowing note, extends his felicitations :

GETTING READY.

Fred M. Smith at Crescent Beach is going to have plenty of nice fresh vegetables for his patrons this season. He has planted among other things 40 bushels of potatoes.

DOWN THEY COME.

The prices of meats are lowering somewhat The extreme prices shut off the demand and consequently increased the supply. The very best cuts still command high prices, but the wholesale priceshave dropped from one to two cents.

VALUABLE MINUTES.

The local stockholders in the Witte Water Placer Co. arc feeling pretty well, thank you Late advices from Surinam state that the plant was recently operated for ioo hours at one-third its capacity, and yielded gold at the rate of Si a minute for the time.

RESENTED IT.

“ Ross Weeks has a patent contrivance at his store for keeping lamp chimneys in place,” said she to the man of the house; and she continued enthusiastically: “ And you can carry a lamp upside down without the chim­ney's dropping off.”

“ Who wants to carry a lamp upside down?” was the cruel response.

LARGEST CIRCULATION.

Next Tuesday occurs the May term of Probate and Insolvency Courts for this county. Those doing business requiring the publica­tion of notices can have them inserted in T he C.-G. at the same price as in the other papers of the county. All friends of T he C.-G. will do us a favor by requesting the officers of the court to order their notices inserted in this paper.

WISE UNCLE SAM.

Patent Handle That's Hall the Go-Crowded Into Bigger Quarters Is the Prospect.

The Hall Manufacturing Co. of this city has an order from Uncle Sam for some of its tools and patent handles for the Charleston Navy yard. The company is also in receipt of an order from a Baltimore wholesale housq and are negotiating with parties in San Francisco who want a car load.

Business is steadily increasing, and ship­ments are being made all the time. Larger quarters will be needed before the Fall trade starts in.

WEALTHY ROCKLAND.

Because It Is Health,—Least Sickness of An, Clt, In Count, it Not in State.

“Only one case of diptheria in town, and that of a mild character,” said- a prominent Rockland physician, Wednesday. “The case is that of a young lady at the South-end. There are no children in the family and not the slightest danger of its spreading. Diph­theria does not seem so difficult to cope with nowadays, either because the disease has expended itself or because of more efficacious methods of treatment, and perhaps both.”

Rockland is a very healthy place,” he continued, “due to the assembling of many health conditions—sea air, mountain air, combustion of wood, and the like. Our only trouble is a little prevalence of rheumatism, lue perhaps to easterly winds.”

THE CITy’ hOSPITAL

The visiting delegates who attended the meeting of Knox District Lodge at Warren, Wednesday, were welcomed to Warren and to Mt. Willow Lodge in a pleasing address by Miss Prances Spear of Warren, which was responded to by A. C. Hamilton of Rockland, after which the visitors all made themselves right at home and proceeded at once to hold one of the busiest and best sessions of the District Lodge ever held in this county.

Ten of the 13 lodges were represented as follows: Chickawaukie, 10 present; Twom- bly, 5; Ocean Wave, 5; Sunbeam, 1; Mirror Lake, 8; Hamilton, 4; Georges Valley, 4 Mt. Willow, 16; Knox I; .Appleton, 1.

The Grand Superintendent o f Juvenile Templars, Mrs. E. E. Cain of Waterville, was present and added much to the interest of the meeting. z\n effort is to be made to organize the county in the interest of Juvenile Tem­plars. Mrs. N. M. Teel of Port Clyde was installed as District Superintendent of Juve­nile Templars by Dist. Dep. J. N. Farnham.

The District Degree was conferred upon 21 candidates. Arrangements were made to have some lodges reorganized by local dep­uties.

During the past quarter Appleton Lodge of Appleton has initiated 25 candidates and now has 76 members. Hamilton Lodge of Rock­land also has 76, and Mt. Willow Lodge has 90 These are the three largest lodges it the county. Two new lodges have been or ganized since the last session, one at Tenant’s Harbor and one at Rockport.

Four entertainments have been held for the benefit of the District Lodge, one at each of the following places: Rockland, W. Rock­port, Warren and Port Clyde. The net re­ceipts were #22.74.

The report of the inspecting officers con­cerning the rank of the lodges in the banner contest was an important part of the program. They reported that the rank of the three leading lodges in the contest was as follows : Twombly of Camden 76, Gcean Wave of Port Clyde 86 2-3, Mt. Willow of Warren 87 33-40. Mt. Willow Lodge therefore received the prize banner and it will add to the attractions in their new hall for the next six months anti at that time another inspec­tion will decide which lodge is to receive it.

More than 100 Good Templars were pres­ent at the evening session. Mt. Willow Lodge gave an exhibition of their tloor work which is a new departive for Good Templar lodges in this section. The plan is original with them and was performed in handsome style. It is evidently the result of great study and interest.

Several resolutions were proposed and called forth interesting discussions of matters of importance to Good Templars.

A resolution was passed thanking the local lodge for favors shown to the visiting dele­gates.

It was decided to hold the next session at Tenant’s Harbor with Sunbeam Lodge, on Wednesday, Aug. 28, when the inspecting officers will be chosen who are to visit and rank the lodges in November.

The session closed with an entertainment furnished by the members of Mt. Willow- Lodge. Following is the program :

Overture, Miss Flossie Jones; recitation, Ida Hodgkins; song, Misses Vinal and Wal ker; song, Gertrude Burkett;music, orchestra.

A. A. Beaton, esq., Qrand Warden of New England Order of Protection, went to Hallo­well, Thursday to institute a lodge of the order in that city.

Present Status of Affairs— Preliminary Organiza­tion for a Certain Purpose.

Some little discussion has been created over the propose 1 city hospital matter, by the fact that the call for a meeting for the purpose of

rganization was signed by none but allopaths, from this it was inferred that homeopaths were excluded.

The facts of the case are that the hospital movement has not reached a stage yet for a discussion of that question. Whatever may be the intention of the allopaths who signed the call, the character of the hospital, the selection of a start, etc., will be left ertirely to the trustees. The meeting called a week or

ago was for the purpose of effecting an organization so as to be in condition to make a bid lor the care of sailors at this port, which would prove quite an aid to such an estab­lishment. No medical men are connectedwith the management of the organization.

T he C.-G., however, hopes with many others in this city, that when the movement takes definite shape and form the homeopaths of the county may be included in tbe organ­ization. To make the movement a success and to command and enlLt the united interest of the community, and make the movement Uccessful this will be necessary.

W amiiinuton, D .C '., May 4, 1895.11. M. Lord, esq., Rockland, M e.:—1 send

you herewith, as a slight contribution to the Rockland Public Library, a very interesting map of the State of Maine published in 1820, the same year in which Maine was admitted to tbe Union as the 10th State under the Constitution. If the library committee thinks that the map can be better preserved and utilized by having it framed, and hung upon the walls of the library, 1 will be glad to defray any expense attending such action.

Yours truly,Sam'l C. Lovejoy.

FISH STORIES.

The Chas. E. Weeks Co. is doing a big fish business on Atlantic wharf. Last year the company shipped 1200 hogsheads of fish, equivalent to more than 1,200,000 pounds. To salt this vast amount of fish it required 2900 hogsheads of salt, or 1,614,000 pounds. There will.be a large increase of business this year over last.

The Gloucester Advertiser prints the fol­lowing : “One of the largest codfish on record was landed Saturday by the schooner Estelle S. Nunan at Reed & Gamage’s wharf, which when dressed weighed 91 pounds. The crew and men on the wharf say it must have weighed at least 125 pounds wheu taken out of the water, l he fish was caught on a trawl in Ipswich Bay.

Fish Commissioner Wbidden has a brand new scheme for the preservation of Maine’s lobsters. He suggests that the state buy back from the fishermen all “seed lobsters” and impound them, so as to save all the fry. This is the practical idea of a practical man. Tbe sale of the lobsters, after they had grown, would pay the State a probt if the enterprise were prosecuted in a businesslike manner.

The trotting season will open at Knox Trotting Park Tuesday, June 18. F. H. Berry will offer #300 in purses for three-min­ute, two-forty and two-thirty classes. The entries close Tuesday,June n th , a t 12 o’clock.

(). F. Blackington has put up a set of niceyal’er awnings----- Charles F. Guptill has beenmaking quite extensive improvements to hishouse----- The Pendleton tenement house,corner Main and Warren streets, is receiving repairs.

Mr. Barrows of Rockville went to North Haven last week with six work horses to work building roads. North Haven has always been noted for its good roads, and with the aid of the road machine will still be in the front rank.

Reuben M. McIntosh, who has been doing telephone work in Waterville, is now in Bath doing the same kind of work. Guy E. Thomas has taken his position in this city as lineman and inspector, and William, son Myron Hahn, becomes night operator.

'The entertainment next Thursday evening, May 16, at the First Baptist chureh, will be one of the best of the season. It is the only appeal the House of the Good Shephard has made to the public for nearly a year and de­serves a liberal patronage. Let our citizens show their sympathy for this work.

Steamer Bangor came into port from Bos­ton Tuesday morning, on her first trip of the season, arriving at about 3.30 o’clock and awaking tbe far echoes of the hills with her lung-whistled shrieks of delight. She brought down a good passenger and freight list and will be more than ever this year a favorite with the public.

Monday, of last week, Fred R. Spear as­sumed tbe cashiership of the North National Bank in place of N. T. Farwell who resigned some weeks ago. Mr. Farwell who has seen the business grow from a small beginning to its present rank as one of the leading banks uf the state, will, as one of the directors, con­tinue to be identified with its prosperity.

John Colson has completed the annual school census. He registered 2337 scholars, between the ages of 4 and 21 years. This is a gain of 62 over last year when they footed up 2275. This shows that our popu­lation is increasing somewhat. Following is this year’s census by wards: Ward one, 329; two, 223; three, 459; four, 285; five, 445; six, 402; seven, 194.

The humorous lecture to be delivered at I’ratt Memorial church next Wednesday even­ing, by W. O. Fuller, Jr., will doubtless draw a large audience, judging from tbe manner in which tickets are already selling.

Tickets are placed at the popular price of 25 cents, and are on sale at 1 )unn & Carr’s, also by members of the Methodist church.

W. O. Fuller, Jr., delivered his lecture, on Kansas Banking, in Rockport, Wednesday evening, in the Baptist Church, and a most appreciative and enthusiastic audience greeted him.

DANGEROUS*QUARRIES-

Inspector Chalk ot Augusta in the City Seeing What Can Be Done in the Premises.

R. F. Chalk, inspector of factories and workshops, has been in this city engaged upon his official duties. He recently went through the State 01 Maine Pant Co’s large building on Park street aud told T he C.-G. reporter that he found everything as “slick as a whistle.”

As a special object this trip Inspector Chalk looked over our limerock quarries with a view, if it cau he done, of rendering their con­dition safer to workmen. His attention was called to the matter particularly by tbe several accidents which have occurred in late years, due to reck falling from the cliffs.

CONTAGIOUS DISEASES

That was a narrow escape Friday evening, at Salvation Army Hall. Several hundred people were crowded into the hall, and a kerosene lamp was knocked down and broken on the stairs, the only avenue of egress. The stairs were quickly on tire and burned so furiously that the wall leading into the Tib­betts store was nearly charred through. The fire was put out without a panic and without the aid of the lire department, but as we started out to say, it was a narrow, a very narrow escape.

Apropos of that Friday night fire, T he C.-G. heard several of the firemen criticising the officer for ringing in the alarm, because the fire was out when the department arrived. Any officer would have been criminally ne­gligent had he not rung in the alarm in a case of that sort. The summoning of the fire de­partment should not be limited to cases of its absolute and certain need, but it should be called when there is a probability or even a possibility of its being wanted, and if the police of the city haven’t instructions to that effect they should receive them at once. It’s better to prevent a fire than to extinguish one and a dozen alarms without services being rendered are preferable to a conflagration which might have been prevented by a prompt ringing in of the alarm.

Rockland people are greatly pleased with the May issue of the Maine Central, which is devoted to the route of the Frank Jones, and includes an interesting article on Rockland from the ready pen of Frank A. Winslow. The article is brightened with cuts of Bay Point, the Custom House, quarry and kiln scenes and portraits o f John T. Berry, S. M. Bird, W. S. White, W. II. Harrington D. M. Murphy and John L. Donohue. The wide circulation of such matter must necessarily benefit this city, and T he C.-G. in behalf of the Rocklanders hereby extends a vote of thanks to Messrs Bosworth & Manley, Col. W. A. Kimball and Mr. Winslow for valuable services rendered.

CUPID'S DARTS.

Young People al Home and Abroad United in Hoi, Bonds of Matrimony-

The Daily Press of Danville, 111., of the is­sue of Wednesday, May 1, has the following notice of the marriage of Miss Eleanor Side- linger, a former estimable young lady of Rock­port. "A happy and auspicious event last evening was the marriage of Miss Eleanor, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. B. Sidehnger, and David Beyer, son of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Beyer, at the bride's home, Water Works Villa. At 8.30 o’clock Mrs. F. E. Wade played Mendelssohn’s march and the bride and groom unattended descended the stair­case, moved to the south side of the south parlor, where an impressive ring service was performed by Rev. W. R. Andcreck, of First Baptist church. The usual season of rejoic­ing and of extending felicitations then fol­lowed. An index of the esteem and admira­tion in which the couple was held was the number of choice gifts received, many coining from Boston and Louisville.

The idea of a pink and white wedding was borne out in the decorations of the house, which were the handiwork of the bride, and elicited much praise. In the south parlor a canopy had been wrought of apple blossoms, and from its centre a marriage bell designed of the same material was swinging. Beneath this floral piece the couple stood when the nng was slipped. The remaining embellish­ments of the house were exotics and potted flowers placed in tasteful effect. The dining room was quite fetching. Festoons of the wedding colors fell from the four corners and were caught up at the chandelier. A bridal table was in the center of the room and at it sal many invited guests. Carnations and smilax garnished that board and pink ribbons bisected the linen cover. Geraniums and a profusion of other plants were banked on the mantel as a background. The serving of re­freshments was done partially by the four members of the bride’s class in the First Bap­tist Sunday school.

The bride wore a becoming costume of white brocaded silk, high neck, puff sleeves and carried lilies of the valley. Among the guests were the members of the bride’s Sun­day school class and these persons from afar: Mrs. J. D. Rust, Rockport, Me.; Mrs. Ann Porter, Fairmount and Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Stahl and children, Terre Haute, Ind.

A treat is in store for the members and lady friends of the Central Club this evening in the way of a telephone concert.

C. E. Rising, the manufacturer of the fa­mous “domestic bread,” sports two of the handsomest, dantiest, handiest bake carts in the state. Both are his own make and the many new features about the carts are crea­tions of his own brain. They are perfectly proporti'ned; light running gear; hang just right; are arranged so the driver can easily reach any part without leaving his seat; there are patent arrangements for keeping rolls and bread hot if necessary; the com­partments are double panelled; a patent slide keeps rain from the driver, and the ap­proach of the cart is announced by the music of chime bells. The carts are artistically painted, scrolled and lettered. On one is lettered in gold “ Best in the World” with a picture of the “ Brownies,” “C. E. Rising’s Domestic Bread” and other lettering; on the other in silver lettering is, “Largest Circu­lation” and “C. E. Rising’s New Domestic Bread.” These are surely models of bakery carts and they have caused much favorable comment. Mr. Rising’s bread has a wide reputation and orders are received from far and near. Business has increased to such an extent that a new oven has had to be built.

Luciers’ Minstrels, one of the best and most popular of road companies, is to appear at the Opera House Friday evening May 17. The troupe includes the Delmanning brothers in marvelous specialties, and others in an entertairing and novel program, not forget­ting the famous Hank White, who has been specially engaged and will appear in his budget of comicalities. The company is too well known here, where they have appeared many times, to need any extended puffing. The show is better than ever this year, with many new features. Tickets now ready at the Opera House.

The Nine Black Beauties gave their min­strel entertainment in Watts Hall, Thomaston, Friday night. The singing and dancing was especially good and thelyoung ladies were as­sisted in special;ies by R. IL Crockett rnd Eddie LeBarre. The audience was small but showed its appreciation in applauding the rendition of each selection. Russian tea was seived at the conclusion of the first part. The entertainment was followed by a grand ball. The Beauties will entertain Vinalhaven people Thursday evening. An excursion will prob­ably be run in conacction with the event, touching at Hurricane, so that people from Rockland and Hurricane can attend the en- terta:nment and ball, and return home the same night.

The Castle-square Opera Company’s sum nier season, Boston, has “caught on” in great style. Full houses have been the rule at all performances this week and the outlook for “Boccacio” is bright. Ehe cast for “Boccacio; or, the Prince of Palermo” has Miss Elssing for the title role; Mr. Wolff in the part of Lnmbertuccio, the mirth provoking grocer, with the interpolation of a topical song to the refrain “ He Only Wanted One” ; Mr. Beaumont Smith as Pietro, the co-merry maker of Larabertuccio; Miss Bell as the heroine, Fiametta, and Miss Rosalind Rissi as Beatrice. “Dorothy” will be produced during the week following “ Boccacio.” The venti­lating apparatus, which has given the Castle- square Theatre a great deal of its fame, has had a good test in the hot wave of this week and has proved itself more than equal to any demands upon it. The house is ready cool and without draughts.

The House of the Good Shepherd is one of Rockland’s most worthy benevolent institu­tions, and one that appeals peculiarly to the sympathies of Rockland people, who should be glad of any opportunity of helping this beneficient institution. Such an opportunity will present itself next Thursday evening, when a concert, lirst-class in every respect, will be given by the following talent: Mrs. Clara Gregory Simonton, the talented recita- tionist, who always delights her audiences; Miss Arline Yorke of Boston, a cultured and pleasing soprano soloist; Rev. C. Everett Bean of Thomaston, baritone, whom Rock­land people are so anxious to hear; Mark Crockett of this city, who plays the cornet so musically; and Mrs. James Wight, also of Rockland, pianist, than whom there are none better. With literary and musical combina­tion for an attraction and the benefit of the House of the Good Shepherd as an incentive the First Baptist church, where the enter­tainment is to be held, should be crowded. Next Thursday evening is the date. Tickets can be procured at Donohue’s drug-store and the Hill’s transfer station.

the effect of the whole window was beautiful and attractive.

The business men arc very enthusiastic over that steam railroad project and they intend to push it through if'such a thing is possible. They realize that a steam railroad into Cam den means the building up of the town; an increase of business, population and influence. The Augusta end of the promoters are very enthusiastic and will do all they can to bring about a favorable result. A Boston gentle­man, who is very much in love with Camden and who wants to see the town grow says that he will put S500 into the scheme, simply because he wants tu see the town progress. The business men think that should the road be built then that steamboat line from Camden to the islands would materialize.

There was a large number from this town present at Col. Ingersoll’s lecture in Rock­land last Tuesday evening. The general opinion was that it was a masterpiece but the Doctor said it was one of the poorest addresses he ever heard.

That sidewalk, Elm street, from the Con­gregational vestry to Wood street, is at last completed and is a big improvement. For years the question of this sidewalk has been Ijefore the voters in town meeting but the article has always been defeated^ until this spring, for the reason that some of the abut tors thought the sidewalk would injure their property. The reverse of this has been the result for the beauty of the abutting property has been greatly enhanced. Another new sidewalk has been laid from Adams stable to Main street, new crossings have been laid across Main street from Clark’s store to Wiley Bros.’ store, also one on Sea street at the 1 corner of Atlantic avenue. ,

T h e C .-G .’s South Union correspondent writes as follows under date of May 6: Mrs. Carrie Alden and Mrs. Alice Morford came home from their western home last week to visit their father, G. H. Jones, who died Sun­day, having been confined to the house only a few weeks, though he has been in feeble health for the past year. Mr. 'Jones was one of the town’s oldest citizens and had been in business here over fifty years. He came from China in the early forties. He will be greatly missed in this community where he has so long resided. He built the house where he lived at his death. His family were all with him when he died, and three of his brothers.”

These photos will be used for advertising the show as well as souvenirs. “Nan” will draw Dig crowds at the above named places. Mr. Page who takes a leading part is a native of Bucksport, and Miss Kittredge of Vinalhaven.

Will Baird is indeed unfortunate. All win­ter long he was laid up with a broken leg and but a few days ago was he able to return to his work. Friday morning, while walking across a room at his home, he slipped and fell to the floor breaking the same leg in the same place. The break is in the worst of places, across the kneecap, and the knee will have to be wired. This will lay him up all summer. The unfortunate fellow has the sym­pathy of his fellow-townsmen and Friday afternoon a well filled purse was given him.

To restore gray hair to its natural color as in youth, cause it to grow abundant and strong, there is no better preparation than Hall’s Hair Renewer.The guessing regarding the authorship of

“ Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc” in H arper’s Magazine still continues. The sec­ond instalment of the serial, in the May number, offers no clue that the first did not furnish, and the favorites among guessers are unchanged. The field is limited to American writers, and includes most of the best known, from Frank K. Stockton to William Dean Howells.

The rapid growth of the summer coufer- ence idea as a factor in American progress is illustrated by a somewhat elaborate article in the May Review of Reviews, in which forecasts are given of not less than seventy- five important scientific, religious, patriotic, reformatory and educational gatherings to bo held in the United States during the next six mouths. The article is of value to teachers ami other intellectual folks as an aid in determining the mooted question, “ Where to spend the sum m er.”

Mr. B. O., Flower, the Editor of the Arena, contributes a very forcible paper to the May issue of that review outlining the sources of the social evil in modern social and indus­trial conditions. He gives examples erf the conditions under which hundreds and thousands of girls working for the sweaters in large American cities are compelled to live, and shows bow they are reduced to the desperation of starvation and forced to make a choice (between suicide and dishonor. If cheap clothes mean cheap souls, which are we going to choose?

The efficacy of Dr. Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy was substantially proven—in the case o f Mrs. C. S. Abell, of this city.

Mrs. Abell lives at 114 Roberts avenue, where she was seen by a reporter. She talked recly of her case, and said : “ For a number of years 1 have been troubled with liver com­plaint and rheumatism, that made me almost helpless. 1 became so ill 1 could scarcely walk across the floor. One of our home phy­sicians informed me that 1 had heart trouble and began treating me for that. His treat­ment did no good. ( >ne day I read of Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy which I pur­chased, and began taking, and improved greatly. I have now taken six bottles, and was never so well in my life. 1 can say noth­ing but kind words for Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, to which I owe so much,1 know of another case in which Favorite Remedy restored to health a friend, who was 1 thought incurable.”

Mrs. Abell also said she would be glad to describe her case to any sufferer. The family are quite as profuse in their praise of Favorite Remedy as M rs. Abell herself.

Dr. David Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy is a never failing specific in diseases of the skin and blood. It restores the disordered liver to a healthy condition and corrects constipation. It is a certain cuie for the diseases peculiar to women. It cures scrofula, salt rheum, erysipe­las, nervousness, loss of sleep, or that worn out feeling. In cases of Rheumatism, dyspep­sia, Bright’s disease, gravel, diabetes and blad­der troubles, it has cured where all else failed. Dr. David Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy is sold by all dealers in medicine at $1 bottle, or six bottles for £5.

Here sarcasm, and the denunciation of all thing- j was a chance for the display of his wonder- cruel. The lecturei was frequently applauded L*l oratory which was allowed to pass unimand even those who differ widely from Col, Ingersol could not hut help admire the strength of his belief in the conquering power of love. I.ovc is his religion, love for all things human, love of the home, love for Nature, love for all things beautiful. Col. Ingersoll is guarded in his utterances but from things he lets drop unthinkingly many believe that way down in the secret heart of this great iconoclast there is a hope, if not a belief, in immortality. He has never denied the existence of a God but he disputes the characteristics of the God of common con-

proved. < )ur orator is not often obscure. His i lectures und speeches have been wonderful . for their terseness and clearness. ( )n Fues- j day. evening he had something to say about children, but what he meant few could under- staub. It does not seem likeiy that he would have them reared wholly without restraint yet he allowed himself a convey that impression.

His word painting of the life of Napoleon, whose life was devoted to seeking the heights of ambition, casting aside the only woman he ever loved that he might furthur hit ambition, compared with the life of a French peasant whose home was ruled by love, love of husband and wife, love of father and mother, love of children to pa­rents, was a masterpiece. He paid a glowing tribute to woman and glories in the future which awaits her. Col. Ingersoll is accom­panied on this tour by his daughter and Tuesday afternoon was pleasantly devoted in looking over our city and sailing on the placid w aters of our harbor.

A moderate sized audience heard Col. In­gersoll’s lecture Tuesday evening, anti all wete held under the spell of his matchless eloqu­ence. The speaker’s tribute -to women is re­ferred to by all as being magnificent. Most of thc'matter of the lecture has appeared in the Colonel’s published works and is familiar to everybody. Along those lines of attack upon the Christian religion, whose boldness of utter­ance has made him famous, the speaker one this occasion was exceedingly mild.— Rock­land Tribune.

There were many church members anti at least one clergyman present. None of them appeared much shocked at the Colonel’s somewhat startling figures of speech—per­haps because they realized that these are all there is in his lectures startling to modern religious thought. We can imagine that some of them were considerably amused at his earnestness in advocating liberty of thought and speech. No doubt he tells the truth when he says that he to-day feels the thumb­screws, etcM with which in the dark ages men’s consciences were constrained, and

part of the audience, was not altogether a happy invention. As pictured by the speaker, he never had any actual existence. The size of the brain does not make a man a savage, or what is the same thing, a wife-beater. The brains of some tribes of .American Indians do not fall below in weight and size those of some civil.zed nations.

The reference to Lincoln as the greatest of America’s dead was in the orator’s old time vein and was a noble tribute finely rendered. The glowing invocation to Liberty which closed the leciure w as extremely fine, and did much to show to those who heard the speaker for the first time that he is a master in the

I field of oratory. I \

Kockluml, May 10, 1Mr. Editor.—It is said that "a cat may '

look at a king” the hidden meaning of which rather commonplace sounding phrase being , that no man reaches so high a station as to be above the scrutiny and criticism of his , fellows, even though they have never emerged i from the obscurity which is the lot of the, great majority. It may not therefore be con­sidered altogether presumptuous for even an obscure individual to give his impressions of the achievement of one of world-wide fame.

It is not intended to refer to Col. Inger­soll’s lecture in any degree from a theological standpoint; that is left wholly to those who are familiar with theology. That the effurt on Tuesday evening did not meet the expec­tations of his friends, of whom the writer of j this article is one, must he conceded. To state why it did not is the object of this paper. The cheap John affair which obstructed the stairway, hawking the books of the orator of the evening, smacked so strongly of the side­shows of a circus as to make an unpleasant impression on the minds of those entering the hall which did not wear away during the evening. Its continuance after the close of | £ the lecture was still worse. We have not been wont to regard Col. Ingersoll as mer­cenary, and it does not seem consistent with the dignity of so great a man to permit such a thing. We could not readily imagine a Web­ster or a Clav employing a boy to sell pamph­lets to swell the abundant proceeds of an evening’s lecture.

The lecture of Col. Ingersoll did not do

Some 18 or more of Warren’s young men started out for a good time which resulted in some of them being brought before Judge Starrett to answer for malicious mischief to the tune of $5 each and more will answer to the same charge this week. When young men want a good time, the best place to have it is at home with their families, and then they will save their reputation and their money. So said the judge.> Arbor Day was observed at the Grammar School with appropriate exercises and the planting of ten beautiful rock maple trees presented to the school by Erastus Lermond, as well as a surplus of fine trees, which were planted at the High School grounds, and one other school-house, without the usual exercises Mr. Lermond’s gift was timely and appro­priate. The program was as follows:P rayer, Rev. Clayton BoothbySinging, “ Red, W hite ami Blue,H ym n, “ T o N atu re ,"“ T ree*,"“ W oodman Spare T hat T ree ,”Selection from W hittier,“ Choosing Tree*," Jenn ie Smith

of P rim ary School The school, consisting of three classes,

then formed in line and marched around the three trees, each member depositing a shovel­ful o f earth on the favorite tree. After these

- ceremonies the classes resumed their places, and classes and audience joined in singing. Then with three hearty cheers for the flag floating above them, they were all dismissed for the day. Music was furnished by Donald Stimpson, banjo; Miss Mary Lermond, organ; and James Lermond, violin, members of the school. Great credit is due to teachers and scholars for their faithful work and hearty co-operation. This is the first time that Arbor Day has ever been properly observed here, and we trust that as this day comes round each year, (and Mr. Lermond’s trees hold out) that all our school grounds will receive the same attention as has the Gram­mar School this year. At the Bailey School 12 or 15 handsome trees were set out, the gift of J. E. Moore, who made an eloquent addres- to which Dr. II. C. Levensaler of the

Arbor Day was observed by the schools onhad a brick walk constructed in front, of his j the fcast side with tree planting. I’he several

schools f-.-rmed in procession in the school­rooms and marched out on the ground, encir­cling the places which were designated for the trees. The trees were tastily decorated and named as follows: High school, for Lin- thel Ripley; Grammar, for Carrie Libby; Intermediate, for Annie Thomas. The Pri­mary schools were united and named the tree for Agnes Wiley. Appropriate remarks were made by Supervisor Foster and School Com­mitteeman Fred Andrews. The pupils sang “America,” and then formed and inarched with Millers Fife & Drum Corps around Cen­tral street, Union street and back to Church street. Several of the teachers and scholars then took two buckboards and went on a ride to Lake City, where they spent the remainder of the day, not forgetting to take a picnic dinner with them.

This closes the season’s meetings.

Architect Coombs of Lewiston looked over the Grammar school building Saturday and gave the committee some practical ideas with regard to the remodeling of that building. A special town meeting will soon be called, the plans will be laid before the town and they will be asked to raise money for this purpose. It should receive the hearty approval of all who have the interests of our school at heart, as when this is done, it will save quite a sum in our school expenses.

The colored people of South Warren had two cases before Judge Starrett last week, one being a case cf assault and battery and the other of disturbing the peace on the Sabbath. The first case was where a constable under­took to enforce the law as a private individual the other for entertaing friends and treating ’.hem on hard cider until the cider got the best of them. Both cases were settled to the satisfaction of the judge at least.

r The exhibition and dance given by Miss ^Jessie Burkett’s juvenile class, in Watts Hall,

Wednesday evening, was a verry pretty affair, and were enjoyed by a large audience—the largest attendance in fact, with the exception of the firemen’s balls, since the dedicationof the hall. The little ones acquitted them selves finely, showing great proficiency and reflecting great credit on their teacher, who is certainly very talented in this profession. All who attended were delighted. There were about 50 juveniles, and they danced the Skatus, Detroit, Berlin, waltzes, etc., with the skill and proficiency of veterans. The young misses were attractively attired, most of them wearing pink and white. The floor was filled for the general dance that followed the exhibition. Music was furnished by Meser­vey’s Brass Quintet.

There is nothing new in the ’electric rail­road matter, and there seems to be surpris­ingly little talk on the subject. It is under­stood thak the selectmen are unanimous in their dfrtRuination to accept neither proposi- hpw^hadSby the road. The threat of dis­continuing the electric lights, happily, is being frowned down Gy level-headed citizens, who sense the fact that the town has electric lights for its own benefit and not for the benefit of a few people. As to the road, it is generally believed that no electric railroad will be built up into Thomaston this year. But that Creek I till was terribly long and trying in the hot days of last week.

I consulted several physicians and specialists who all pronounced it a cancer. I underwent an operation for its removal, but it came back again all the same.

About two years ago, seeing the statement of Dea. Hiram Pattee of Brooks, Me., who was cured of a cancer by Rudolf’s Medical Discovery, I wa9 induced to give the remedy a trial. At this time I had a very poor ap­petite and my food did not seem to do me ny good. .My weight was less than 150

pounds and I also had a very bad eczema from which I suffered greatly.

attended the reunion uf the 3d Army Corps in the interest of the biography of Major Gen­eral Hiram G. Berry. Tie reports the exer­cises at Hadley, the birthplace of Major Gen­eral Joseph Hooker, to kave been interesting and impressive, notwithstanding the intense heat and the dust blown about by the wind. The exercises were held in a large tent oppo­site the house in which General Hooker was born, and the orations of Major General Dan­iel E. Sickles and Brig. Gen. 11. E. Tremain were scholarly efforts, brimming with histori­cal incidents concerning General Hooker. The 3d Army Corps Union presented to the town of Hadley a painted portrait of General Hooker, the cost of which was 11500. Among the interesting relics on exhibition was the gold-mounted sword presented General Hooker by the State of California, aud said to have cost $5000, and the sword of General Burgoyne of Revolutionary fame, who was entertained in Hadley on bit way from Sara­toga to Boston, and in gratitude to his host presented this sword.

Northampton and Hadley were openbanded in their hospitality to the veterans of the 3d Army Corps, aud the arrangements were per­fect in every respect. Many interesting remi­niscences concerning General Berry were gathered from the army officers at the re­union, and Mrs. A. D. Snow and sou who, as the representatives of General Berry were the guests of the Corps, were received with honors, lfiram B. Snow being elected to membership in the 3d Army Corps Union.

F R E IG H T S AND C H A R T E R S '

Reported from Brow n & C om pan y’s W ee k ly F re ig h t Circular.

The situation remains substantially as has been indicated in the recent past. The sup ply of ships in this port continues in excess of the small requirements ot charters, while handy size vessels are less numerous and more readily provided for than large carriers, and at relatively better rates. The market for all descriptions of tonnage, however, is unsatisfactory, prevailing freight rates a best yielding but slender margins uf profit over expenses reduced to the most economical basis consistent with safety. At the close a somewhat more cheerful feeling obtained, as the market is apparently working inm stronger position. * ♦ • California |Oregon grain freights are firm at the iniprovem-ut in rates. It is understood! mure than one hundred ship* have charted to load at San Francisco and on Columbia river since the recent improvement in these freights, nearly all for new crop ■ wneat, with cancelling dates m some instances

remote as December and January. The highest rates thus far paid for San Francisco loading are 305 and 31«. 3 I. to Cork for ordets United Kingdom or Continent. These would have been cun-ider d very low rates in ni re prosper -us time-, but such is t ie depr -'sed condition of the carrying trade at present that they serve to attract suitable ship* from nearly ail parts f the globe. * * * Handy size vessel-suitable for the West India and c.astwise yellow pine, tie and phosphate trad s are in small supply an I strongly held, with business to some extent restricted by the scarcity of vessels in the right position. The continued paucity of freights for SV^^hern coastwise ports also militates against an 9 movement of lumber, ties phosphate rod? etc. Colliers are holding their own, but coal freights are not brisk.

Charters—Ship Wm. IL Macy hence to Japan and back, lump sum—Sch. Wm. H. Allison, Baltimore to Jacksonville, brick, and back lumber, p. t.—Sch. Morancy, Vinal haven to New York, paying blocks, Si 2, 1. and d.

i bins is in spkndid condition, has excellent j control of the ball, has good curves and is

There should be a ball game of some ; kind Memorial Day. The cranks are getting , anxious and a sight of the length of the bat,, the kind of a ball and the size of mitt to | be used this season will appease their appetite ■ somewhat. Give the boys a chance to yell [ and find fault with the umpire, they are will- I ing to pay for it. Let us have a game if it

is nothing more than a game between the business men and professional men.

Toothacher, the stalwarth young Bruns- wickian is to be given a trial by the Bangors. Toothacher will be remembered by our peo­ple as the fellow who wore the shirt with the black and yellow bars across it.

We were sitting at our desk the other even­ing manufacturing sporting news for our readers when the following conversation interested us:

“Say Jimmie aint dese Rocklin fellers slow ’bout getin’ players? Der Camdins are all redy ter play now.”

“ Whot are yer given us Dannie, Jonnie Mc­Graw is alright. Ile knows what he’s about He’s jest a waitin’ for der big clubs ter let sum ob der best players go den he’ll gobble em up. See. Youse don’t know nothin’. Der Camdins are chumps an won’t be in it, see. When dey cum down here we'll wipe up der earth wid ’uni.”

“Come off er ther perch Jimmie Dooley. Why der Warrins will beat der Rocklins and don’t yer forgit it. Yer can jest put dis in yer hat an think whot I say when yer lose yer Napoleons. And I’ll bet yer on it.”

“What’ll yer bet?’’“ I’ll bet yer a box of cigarets dat Camdin

an’ Warrin will run away from der Rocklins in der furst game.”

“Take yer an 1 11 bet 'notherbox of cigarets dat you’ll lose.”

“Take yer,” and the kids walked away.Arthur Elliot’s yachts, Constance and Ida,

have been brought up from Pleasant Point and are being got in readiness for the yacht­ing season.

The South Portlands defeated Colby, Wed­nesday, 26 to 9 with Patterson in the box. I Those South Portland boys are great ball i players and they are anxious to have another go at Rockland. The members of the team are well known in this city and in times past have set the pace for us. They will have another go with us this season.

The Bangor Commercial says: “The Mur­phy Balsams of Portland claim to be the best team in Maine outside of the league clubs. Webster, Kelley, Flavin, Webb, Edgar, Wood­bury and all the Portland old-timers are with the Balsams. Tne Biddeford Record show­ers the Balsams with compliments. It says among other thing that they may have won their share of games in times past, but there is no question that they have stolen more than any other team in Maine.” Rockland never had much trouble in defeating the Bal­sams in times past and will repeat the dose before this season closes.

Phil Jason has recovered from his sprained ankle and is again playing for the Salems. As we predicted weeks ago, Phil is putting up a great game, his batting especially being terrific.

Tennis will be one of the interesting sports here this summer. .There are quite a num­ber of excellent players in this city.

PERSONAL POINTS

S l a u g h t e r S a l eShe was of a fervent poetic nature, and as she rode along she was completely carried away with the scenery. A beautiful grove attracted her attention : Turning to her escort, she said:

• Look at that noble group of trees. How majestically they reach heavenward;”

“What do you mean ? Those large wooden trees?” drawled the young man.

Then there was a frost.

Capt. R. R. Ulmer. 1st Lieut. C. C. Tib­betts and 2nd Lieut. J. W. Gray of Tillson Light Infantry were in Lewiston last week in attendance on the School of Companies for the Second Regiment, State M. V. M.

T he C.-G. is indebted to the Lewiston Journal for the fine likeness of Gen. Tillton, which appeared last week. And in this con nection it may be well to state that the Journal on Tuesday, the day of < len. Tillson's death, had an extended and well-written obituary. It "as the first daily to publish the news of the General’s death.

Knox county loses a valuable citizen in the removal of Nelson Hall from 'Tenant’s Har­bor to Boston. Mr. Hall, who was a Rock­land boy by birth, went to Tenant’s Harbor thirty years ago, upon being appointed dep­uty collector of customs at that port, a posi­tion be has filled ever since, wfth the excep tion of the first term of President Cleveland; and now for the second time he has been succeeded by an appointment of a deputy of the Democratic faith. During his resi­dence at Tenant’s Harbor Mr. Hall has filled the position of chairman of the board of se­lectmen. and numerous other town offices, holding commission as trial justice, etc., and altogether has led a very busy life, being foremost in all public affairs. Besides he has been an ardent, active Republican, serving

n town and county committees, and always to be found at county and state conventions, and in political circles hereabouts he will be especially missed.

Mr. Hall bears a gallant record as a sol­dier, serving with much distinction in Ber­dan’s famous corps of sharpshooters. At Chancellorsville a shell took off his right arm. Later he went into the invalid corps with a lieutenant’s commission.

His new home is at 46 Pinckney street, Boston, in which city he is to engage in the real estate business. His hosts of friends in this corner of Maine wiil wish for him the utmost success, and hope he will often find occasion to run down this way to see them.

THE BUSY BUILOERS

“ Yes ! we are very busy,*' said a Rockland contractor, to a reporter of T he C.-G-G., one day last week. Men are in good demand, the nine hour day has proved satisfactory to all concerned, both employer and employed, the utmost harmony prevails and we are en­tering upon a busy season.”

Sherman, Glover & Co. have just finished a cottage house for John Colburn at Seal Har­bor. They are remodelling Charles W. Gale’s stable and making general repairs to his house. Capt. Joshua Bartlett’s house, Ocean street, is nearly all finished outside. It is a handsome two-storied structure with bay windows, extensions, piazza, etc. Sherman, Glover & Go’s crew is now framing S. M. Veazie’s new residence, Beech street, Coburn field. This will be a $3,000 house with a number of bay windows, extensions, etc. Another job that this firm has on hand is the construction of a house for Capt. Benj. Haskell, Ingraham’s Hill. The outside finish is going on. This house, which will cost S i200, is not situated on the site of the one destroyed by fire, but is on the main road to South Thomaston.

•Joiners in this city are getting from $2^to $2.25 a day.

Two line stores are being finished off in the St. Nicholas Hotel building. 'They will reach as far back as the dining-room. Sher­man, Glover \ Co. do the work. Max Antin contemplates moving from Sea street to occu­py one of them.

The house of Dr. Damon. Shaw avenue, is having a cellar put thereunder.

Manager Patten has signed Nate Pulsifer, of Bates College, who will catch Hies in right field, and alternate in the pitcher’s bbx. Young Pulsifcr is a brother of T. C. Pulsifer, who will also play with Camden, is a heavy batter and a fair pitcher. He was a member of the Poland Springs team last summer and will prove a valuable man for Camden. z\ll Camden now lacks to have the teams com­plete is a catcher. W hat is the matter with Burrill pitcher, Robbins first base, Douglass second base, Carney third base, Gorman short, N. Pulsifer right, T. C. Pulsifer left and Lib Wardwell center. This is a strong aggrega­tion of ball players, combining fielding, bat­ting and base running and it will take a mighty good team to beat them. Moreover they are all clean, gentlemanly fellows who will play honest, conscientious ball and whose habits will cause no apprehension on the part of the management. Manager Patten can retire to his rest knowing that his players will take proper care of themselves. This is as it should be.

We state with pleasure that Manager Pat­ten informs us that Gorman informs him that he will he with Camden when the season opens. He has signed no permanent contract with Haverhill hut intends to keep the prom­ise made Manager Patten. We always thought Dan was a gentleman and a man of his word and if he had slipped up on Camden we would have felt badly. He is playing good ball for Haverhill.

zKt the annual meeting of the Penobscot Yacht Club officers were elected as follows: Commodore, M.A. Rice, Rockland; vice com­modore, C. E. McIntire, Rockport; secy., C. E. Tuttle, Rockland; treas., E. B. McAllister. Rockland; measurer, W. E. Barrett, Rock­port; regatta committee, W. A. Merriam, Rockport, E. E. Davies, Rockland, O. E. Copeland,'Thomaston, Willis Knowlton, Cam­den; house committee, W. II. Bird, Rock­land, W. II. Gardiner, Camden, E. A. Morrill, Rockport, Dr. J. E. Walker, /Thomaston; executive council, Commodore Rice, Rock­land, W. A. Merriam, Rockport, z\. J. Bird, Rockland, W. II. Gardiner, Camden, z\rthur Elliott, Thomaston, W. z\. Luce, Rockport. 'Two new classes have been added to the four of last year. The fifth class to comprise cat boats and the sixth to comprise steam yachts. There are three steam yachts now in the fleet—owned by C. G. Weld of Boston, a Mr. Little, marine architect of Boston and the Volante owned by G. IL and F. S. Water­man, undertakers of Boston. z\ committee was appointed to make arrangements for fit­ting up a first-class club house on the new addition to Tillson’s wharf. Commodore Rice will present one of his fine cups, won by the Monhegan, to be raced for by fishing boats. The treasurer made his report; the receipts were $643.95, expenditures $598.67, balance S45.28, due from members $182.50. It was voted to form the club into a corporation, re­taining the same name. The membership is now more than 200 with indications of a big increase. There will be many additions to the fleet. Jackson Richardson of Elmira, N. Y., will be in it with his new boat which will he launched from Loring’s yard next Wednes­day; C. E. Tuttle has a new boat built by C. F. Brown of Pulpit Harbor. It is 30 ft. long, draws 5 ft., 8 ft. beam, 25 ft. boom, gaff 17 ft., carries 500 square feet of canvas, and line’keel; Charles Creighton of Thomaston will have a new cat boat to be built by Barrett of Rockport; Commodore Rice has three eat boats he will enter; O. E. Copeland of Thomaston has the fratne,up tor a]new cat boat; John Ingraham has added 4 inches to the keel of his boat and made other improve­ments; Preston Rich has lengthened the bow­sprit of his boat with other improvements to increase speed; K. C. Rankin has a new eat boat which he will probably enter in the races.

Geoigc S. Wardwell has designed a new cal boat for » apt. J. DeWinter of this city, it will be 28 ft. over all, 11 ft. beam, will draw 3 1.. ft. water, anti 6 fi. head room in cabin. It will be a beauty.

Gerrish of Bates College has accepted the terms offered by Manager McGrath and has signed to catch for Rockland this summer. He is a splendid backstop, a sure throw and a good hitter and with him we can depend on having one good catcher. He is putting up rattling good ball for Bates and will prove a valuable man for Rockland.

Manager Burnham of the Kennebecs is going to give Dill worth of Belfast a trial in the box. “Dilly” in the days of old was able to keep in the front rank of the procession but what he will do now is an enigma. He pitched his first games yesterday against the Pawtuckets. The Kennebecs won.

The Rockland Wheel Club has elected officers as follows: President, 11. C. Chatto; vice president, S. A. Macomber; secretary, James Smith; treasurer, S. A. Macoiuber; captain, A. W. Gregory; 1st lieutenant, C. M. Robinson; 2d lieutenant, E. R. Davis; bugler, A. O. Pillsbury; color bearer, Charles Lee. The club is rapidly increasing in membership and interest is growing. There is nothing decisive yet regarding the Fourth of July races. Some of the members think the races will inteferft with the ball game. This can easily be avoided. The ball game will not be called earlier than 3 o'clock and if the races are started promptly at one o’clock there is no reason why they should not be finished in time to take in the ball game. If necessary the races could be started earlier than one o’clock. Let us enjoy the races and ball game too.

The Rockland Wheel Club took a run to Union, Sunday.

Dr. A. F. Piper of Rockport lias launched his speedy yacht Nokomis.

Capt. E. O. Patterson of Charleston, S. C., is running races with his new yacht Palos, recently built by Amos Barrett A Son of Rockport. The Palos Hies the Penobscot yacht club colors, has won two races defeat­ing every bout in Charleston, and is much admired by all gaod judges and is highly prized by her owner.

A ball game was played Friday afternoon on Camden grounds by the High Schools and Camden Locals. The Locals wa# composed of such players as Robbins, Wilbur, Ward- well, Arey, Clifford, Buchanan and others aud they had a hard time defeating the High School boys, the score being 6 to 5. Upton and Newton was the battery for the High Schools and they put up a splendid game, Upton striking out 11 meu aud hut three hits were made off bis delivery. Rob­bins pitched half of the game for the Locals aud 10 of the kids went down‘'before his

A Great Boston Exhibit. f o r m e r P r ic e $ 2 5 C a n d $ 3 . 0 0The American Pharmacy Fair, first of its

kind ever attempted in A inerica, is now being held in Mechanics’ Building, Boston, and will be open from May I to May 25. The opening was most happy and auspicious. Great crowds are in daily attendance and the success assured beyond doubt. The Fair is replete with object lessons for the public, de­signed to call attention not only to chemical, physical and pharmaceutical operations and products, but also to the physical appearance of many things which are well known by name but not by sight. The mystery which surrounds pharmacy will be, in a measure, unveiled, and the commonest and most fa­miliar operations exhibited in a way to show the onlooker that skill and judgment are as much required in pharmacy as in its allied professions of surgery and medicine. zVt a recent exhibition of pharmaceutical drugs and preparations it was noted that a keen inter­est was displayed in the common drugs ex­hibited in their crude form, such as aconite, j belladonna, squill, ipecac, opium, nux vomica, etc., by some citizens who chanced to come in. It is intended that the Pharmacy Fair shall present to the public the resources of pharmacy in its widest phase. It will expose to view, in the most attractive way, ail the minutie of an immense drug store, able to supply to the public at a moment’s notice anything desired for the needs of the sick, the continued health or comfort of the well, or the mental relief of those in anxious doubt concerning the effects of plants or objects about them upon the health. Everything will be shown from crude drugs fo finished preparations, from hair oil to corn plasters, from complicated analysis and examinations to the latest device for washing bottles, or from a glass of refreshing soda water with pure fruit juices to the most palatable prepa­ration of cod liver oil. Curiosities will not be neglected. Old appliances and old instru­ments will be shown; old methods of prepa­ration of drugs and tinctures illustrated, and their products compared with the modern style; old and curious containers will also make a bric-a brae collection which must be the envy of connoisseurs, and modern curios­ities of chemistry and physics, rare salts or chemicals, color reactions, freezing operations, growth of crystals, e tc , will also find their place within.

As the strength of a building depends upon the solidity of its foundation, so health <! - pends upon the condition of the blood. To expel impurities and cause the vital fluid to become vigorous and life-giving, .Ayer’s Sar­saparilla is the most powerful and effective medicine in use.
