Hon. RrFL WLIAMs.-We take the
following biographical facts in regard to
Mr.. Williams from notice communicated
to the Portland IdrcrtiSer
Mr.. Williams was born at Augusta ia
son of Seth WiIiamsl, on the ID of June,
I7s3, aud where he always resided. The
maker of his own fortune, at the age of
II he commenced the study of the law in
the Office of the Hon. james Bridge, at
that time the most prominent lawyer OF
the kennebec valley, His great indus
try, aptness for business, and his admiral
self control, soon won the confidence Of
Judge Bridge, who took him into his office
as an actual partner, before he was u
years OF age. At the completion Of the
seven years of study, then required by the
rules of the Bar, he was admitted at the
age Of - into full practice, and as a
partner OF Judge Bridge, in lso5. In
1907 he married daughter of Hon.
Daniel Cony, who still survives him.
Five years ago their golden wedding was
celebrated. Their children inherit the
characteristics of the parents and do
honor to their early culture.
Mr., Williams rose rapidly in his pro.
ression, soon acquired a competence, and
became, at a comparatively early age, one
of the most wealthy men of the State
His investments in lands were extremely
fortunate, and realized large profits.
Mr.. Williams held various public
trusts, both under the Government OF
Massachusetts, and Of Maine, after the
separation. He became an earnest advo-
cate of the separation of Maine from
Massachusetts, after the indications in its
favor were clearly established, and was
one of the Commissioners on the part OF
Maine in 1920 for the Division OF the
Public Llnds. He superintended the
building of the State House at Augusta
was at different times member OF the
Legislature of Maine, and twice elected
Senator in Congress.
Last year, at the earnest request OF
Governor Washburn, in the 18th year OF
his age, he accepted the place Of Com
missioner to Washington in reference to
the public dofcnccs of the State, and was
llrgely instrumental in securing the public
pledges of the Administration for the
State of Maine.

Cuttings.

"Currant, gooscberry, grape, and
ounce cuttings should be made" says the
Ohio Farmer, "after the wood is ripe,
and before the hard frosts, and should be
eight inches long. The cut should begin
opposite the base of bud and end oppo-
site the top. This leaving a bud at tho
bottom is to insure the rapid formation Of
roots. Currants grow so readily as not
to require the cut to be at the bottom Of
a bud. They should be tied in bundles,
with willow bands, and buried out Of
doors, or in moss or in sand or in cool
cellar. In the spring they will be beauti-
fully calIoused, and should be planted as
soon as the frost is out, in rich, sandy soil,
(good garden soil,) ten inches apart, in
rows three and half feet apart. The
object of this width is to mellow the soil
with cultivator and double shovel plow.
To plant. walk on the line, pushing hoe
laid fiat before you to mark; then remove
the line and insert in the mark spade
with is back toward you, about eight
inches dc p and move the handle back
ward and forward then move the spade
along, its own width, and open again;
this will leave an opening about one inch
wide and about six inches deep. Insert
the cuttings, and slant the long ones SO as
never to have the lower end over six
inches deep this will secure warmth to
the end. Then tread along the mark with
foot on each side to fasten the bottoms
firmly then haul in the soil with hoe
even with the top bud. A slight top
dressing of manure is beneficial. For
currants the ground cannot be too rich,
but avoid fresh manures, save for top
dressing. The object in making cuttings
early in the winter is to avoid the severe
frosts and to insure the callousing during
the winter, thus giving an early start and
good growth before the hot
weather. Ounce cuttings should never
be less than eight inches to give room TO
bud them the first year after transplant
ing. Sometimes they are budded the cur.
rent season in rows but the growth Of
the buds IS so doubtful, and as they will
be too thick in rows. and cannot be trans
planted without injury, it is better to
at one year, trim the roots, and
then bud. The Angus ounce should be
used for dwarfng pears"

The Casting of an Eleven
Inch Dahlgren.

The Portland Company have con-
tract for the manufacture of fifty 1l-inch
Dahlgrcn naval shcll.guns. For the exc
cution of this job, the company have re-
Gently erected new furnace of pattern
unlike the usual cylindrical furnace, but
rather OF the common oyen-form, and oi
much greater capacity than any furnaces
which they had in commission previousl y.
Yesterday the second gun was duly cast.
The usual formality of making the mould
and depositing it in the ground, with the
breech downward and the muzzle protrud-
ing some two or three feet above the
ground, had been attended to during the
week past At about nine o'clock in the
forenoon, fire was started under the furn-
ace, into which had been thrust seventeen
Mons of iron, its quality running through
six different numbers for the purpose OF
securing such a combination as would give
the toughest metal. About four tons OF
Pictou coal were consumed before the
seventeen tons of iron were liquided and
put in proper temper for the final busi-
ness. Along towards noon, Superintcnd-
cnt Sparrow began to test his soup
This he did by taking small portion of
the moulten metal, casting it into the form
of wedge, and when cool, breaking it
into a number of pieces When the pieces
from the point Of the wedge towards the
butt, disclose, by the whitoness of the
fractures, that the metal is in condition
to erystalizc properly, then it is ready for
the mould. The test was applied seven
times yesterday, and it was nearly three
o'clock, or two hours beyond the time set,
before Supcrindcnt Sparrow had his soup
ready to serve up. Meantime the soup
in its whitchot furnace. was frequently
stirred by the cooks for the purpose Of
thoroughly mixing the different kind, of
IRON. At last the furnace was tapped.
In five minutes, the seventeen tons Of
liqaid iron, running along the conduit in
scintiila.ing stream Of white, tingcl
With rcd, was quietly aud safely deposited
IN the mould. Descending by two small
pipes outside, the iron entered the mould
1t the bottom, thus giving the brcech Of
the gun the best metal, as the best il sup
nos..l to be the lot rom the furnace, the
iirst gradually rising to the mouth OF the
mould In the course OF ten days the
Gun will have cooled oil, when it will 90

How Horses Should be Shod.

A recent issue of the 1meracaU Stock
J0urnn contains q most valuable article
on this subject Young horses, the writer
says, if shod at all before four or five
years DID, should have their shoes taken
of and reset as often as once in three or
four weeks. The hoof should be kept
pared at the heel so that the frog may
come to tho ground. This keeps the frog
moist and healthy, and has a tendency to
spread the heel and keep the foot in its
natural shape. The soft and healthy frog
acts as a cushion, and saves the foot from
damage while the animal travels upon
hard roads. 1t also keeps the foot in a
healthy state, and is therefore Of great
Importance to the horse. If the heel is
suffered to grow down, the frog becomes
dry and bony, when it comes in contact
with a stone or other hard substance, the
horse cripples, and subsequently becomes
lame. When the hoof grows down long
at the heel, it becomes dry and contracted,
and the horse stands upon his toes in an
unnatural and straining position. The
frog, however ragged, should not be touch
cd by the shocr's knife To avoid rails
ing the heel so that the foot must come
to the ground in an unnatural position,
the shoe should be of the same thickness
at the toe as at the heel
When the foot is properly pared, the
shoe should be made to fit it SO perfectly
that the outside crust of the hoof will
not have to be cut down to fit the shoe.
The shoe should not be opened at the heel
wider than the hoof as this has tcndcn
cy to crowd in and contract the foot at
this point but if the outside of the shoe
is brought in even with the outside of the
hoof, it has the opposite effect. The hoof
should never be raspcd or filed above the
clinches, nor the natural enamel, which is
given to it for some wise purpose, disturb
ed. Fancy shoers-from all of whom
good Lord deliver us-are too much in
the practice of rasping, filing and sand
papering the hoof to make it look nice,
without ever thinking that they are doing
it an injury that is beyond their power to
repair.

Fanny Fern on Male Exqu1S-
ties.

Dandyism, like the measles, should be
gone through in early life. On a fine
handsome 10y, sixteen or eighteen, it sits
/ gracefully and offends no one. After that
we look to see him in earnest about some
thing besides bright neckties and cream
colored kids-wcl enough for Broadway
gambler, lounging on sunny corner, but
according to our female ideas, eschewed
by men Of brains. 1t may be weakness,
but pair Of light gloves on man, ex-
cept on some festive occasion, Immediately

Messieurs, if you please, and-as you
love us-no glitter of watch chain or
shirt fixins. Then-though you may be
no Solomon-we know you sometimes
think. In this connection would it be too
much to ask, what madness has seized the
male population Of New York, to array
themselves like so many footmen, in those
long petticoat.y coats, which now caress
their heels, and make day hideous. Talk
of " female servi!ity to fashion," when
short dumpy men allow their tailors to
swallow them up in these swaddling gar
ments, Ly which the tallest man escapes
utter usIncss, $50 as by fire. We re-
called our eyes whole block, the other
day, with the sight of a gentleman who
had the moral courage to 60 out and face
fashion in a bran new short-bobtail coat.
Goodness, how refreshing! No man in
these footman-like coats is allowed a
waist-two defining back waist buttons
being placed where sitting position
might render them uncomfortable. In
short no monstrosity of female fashion
was ever uglier Now, in our view, con-
sistcncy demands that the other sex should
be dumb-from this time-henceforth and
forevcrmore--upon the compulsory va
carries of female fashion" As to ''iemalc
extravaganza" contemplate forty-iiyc dol
lars for mans coat twelve dollars for

A Confirmed Grumblcr.

Some time ago there lived in Eiinhure
wcll-known grumbIer named Sandy
Black, whose often recurring fits OF spleen
or Indigestion, produced some amusing
scenes Of senseless irratibillty, which were
highly relished by all except the brute :
patient little wife. One morning Sandy
arose, bent on a quarrel the haddics and

been ordered by himself the previous
evening; the breakfast passed without the

"What will you have for dinner, San

a chicken, madam, said the husband.
Roast or boiled p asked the wife.

good and eonsiderate wife, you'd have

Sandy, and slamming the door behind
him, left the house,
1t was in spring, and friend who was
present heard the little wife say
"Sandy's bent on disturbance to-day.

Boiled chicken. | hate it madam
A chicken boiled is chicken spoiled
Immediately the cover was raised for
another chicken, roasted to turn.

At that instant broiled chicken with
mushrooms, was placed on the table.

"How dare you spend my money IN

They were present" said the wife,
