MISS MARY c. Low, the brilliant young
"woman who dared' to enter Colby Univer-
sity in the last class and who took the first
prize for scholarship last fall, read one of
Beecher's sermons in the pulpit of the Uni
tartan church at Waterville a few weeks ago
at the special request of the pastor, DR.. Shell
don, who was obliged to be absent; whereup-
on somebody, who probably knows all about
'woman's sphere writes letters to the pa
pers saying that he doesn't think she ought
to have done it. However, as everybody else
agrees that she did it wei, -as she does ey
erything which she tries,-we think she can
survive the reproach of her anonymous critic
VINO is evidently one of those infallible people

PROGRESS OF THE onANaEs--REPAIRINd THE
PUMPS.
1t has already been stated in these columns
that important changes were in progress at the
Water Works. the completion of which would
greatly increase their efficiency in the supply
and distribution OF water. The nature and ex-
tent of those changes were also stated.
The digging Of the canal in order that the
Cornish Engine may be kept in CONSTANT en-
ployment, is progressing towards completion.
The required depth has already been attained at
the rear or mill end of it, but it is yet to be
opened out into the bed of the Brandywine.
This part of the work however, will advance
more rapidly as 30 great care will not be neces-
sary in blasting.
The new wharf is also nearly completed, and
the stream is being deepened in the vicinity of
the wharf 30 that vessels may lie close along
side.
Capt Gallagher is oyerhauling the pumps
and putting them in thorough repair. The work
upon one has been completed, and the other ia
now in pieces undergoing the needed repairs
The latter pump is very old, having been in con-
slant use since the Water Works were first erec-
ted, and is very much worn and out of order
The cylinder was almost entirely worn out, and
a new one is being supplied.
The new Worthington pump will be ready to
set up, next month, the manufacturer says The
boilers are completed and ready for removal at
any time. They were built by the Harlan y Hol-
lingsworth Co.
