JUDGE BOURNE.

The telegraph informed our readers of the
death of Judge Edward Emerson Bourne of
Kennebunk, at his residence, on the gath, of
disease of the heart He was born, says the
Portland Press, at Kennebunk, then part of
Wells, March 10, 1897; was educated at the
Academy there and at Bowdoin College,
graduating in the class of 1916.
After graduating Mr.. Bourne studied law
at home, in the Office of the late George w.
Wallingford, Esq, and was admitted to prac.
tice at the bar of his native county in 1919.
He tried his fortunes a few months at Albion,
Maine, and few weeks at York, and then re-
turned to Kennebunk where he ever after
resided. This part of Wells had just been
set of from Wells into town by itself, the
frst act of the kind passed by the Legislature
Of the young State. Judge Bourne represen-
ted the new town in the Legislature for six
years-from 1926 to 1851, inclusive -and held
various minor municipal offices; but his po-
litical associations precluded him from occu-
plying any more important position till Gov.
Kent was elected in 1888, who nominated Mr..
Bourne for County Attorney, and re- appoint
ed him, after his own re. election as Governor,
in 1910. Upon the organization of the Re-
publican party, Mr.. Bourne early became a

Mrs. MANCHESTER, the distinguished Clair
voyaEt physician, is now at the Mansion
House, Augusta, by request of her numerous
friends. Her success during her last ten
years practice has been unprecedented. Many
persons who have suffered years from numer-
Gus chronic diseases, have been cured by her
after having been given up by other physi-
clans, thereby demonstrating how much
greater the success of a physician who de-
votes their exclusive attention to chronic d.
seases. Hundreds of testimonials received
from prominent and we'll known citizens of
nearly every town in the Union can be seen
at Mrs. Manchester's rooms.

Under the leaves, under the sky;
The light and the hope and the joy of eacl,

Has gone to her home ON high:
While memory folds her gossamcr wings,
In prayer, over her closing eye;
Like an angel, she gathers the heavenly

Like a star, she shines, on high.
II her golden youth has faded too fast
And gone from this world Of strife.
May sorrow perhaps, not have cruelty cast,
Some shadow across her life
