.Ju,Ipe Williams.

The public will be startled to learn of the
death gof Judge John Fl. Williams, which &C.
CURED early yesterday morning. He was in
his usual health Saturday evening, and was
walking out with his wife as late as ten o'clock.
just before eleven o'clock he was sitting in
front of the United States Hotel when he had
sudden attack of apoplexy. He was carried
to his room and medical attendance summoned.
1t was at first thought by the physician called
that he would recover as only the right side
was affected by the attack. About midnight
he became worse and sank rapidly until the
time of his death, 3 o'clock yesterday morning
Judge Williams was born in Boston, in De-
cember, 1918, and consequential was nearly 80
years of age at the time of his death. He
came to this city when quite young. He was
appointed to West Point. but resigned soon
after and began to study law. He has practic-
ed law in this city since he was admitted to the
bar with but little interruption. He has al
ways had large practice, and was very sue
cessful advocate. When the Wing party was
in existence Judge Williams was very prom
inent politician with that party, but since that
party disbanded he has not been very much
connected with politics. In March, 1854, he
was appointed Judge of the Police Court by
Governor Wells, and continued in this position
until June of the following year. Previous to
this he was Clerk of the Common Council for
number of years.
Judge Williams was one of the old charter
members of Maine Lodge of Odd Fellows, also
member of Eastern Star Eucampment, aud
OF the Cumberland Bar. He was very active
member of the Odd Fellows for many years.
The funeral will take place tomorrow morn
ing at 1Oa o'clock from the First Parish church.

Commencement at the State College,


The coming commencement at the State
College promises to be of even more than usual
interest. The exercises of the week will be as
follows:
Saturday evening" July 3l-Sophomore Prize
Defamation.
Sunday evening, Aug, 1-Baccalaureate by
President Allen.
Monday evening-JuniorP Prize Compositions.
Tuesday evening-Presdent' levee and re-
cePtion.
Wednesday is commencement day proper, on
which the following is the order of exercises:
At l03 a. NJ, commencement exercises by the
graduating class; commencement dinner fol.
lowing these exercises. At 3. D. M, address by
Hon. 1. Washburn, and in the evening the
commencement concert by Mrs Fl. M. Smith,
Mr.. w. II. Fessenden, Mr.. j. f. Rudolphsen,
and the Philharmonic Club of Boston,
Thursday morning-Meeting of the Alumni,
and also examination of candidates for the
next Freshman class. P. M-Exercises of
class day under the oak tree on the college
campus.
The present graduating class is the first that
has completed the entire course under the
charge of President Allen, and the eighteen
graduating students certainly do credit to their
Alma Mater and its able corps of instructors.
Several of the class have already been engaged
to fill responsible positions. The graduates of
the previous years are also winning an enviable
reputation as engineers, farmers, teachers and
business men. A large number of applications
for admittance to the next Freshman class have
been received, and the prospect is that 70 will
be one of the largest classes ever entering the
institution. Among those who will be present
during commencement week are the Governor
and Council, nearly all the congressional dele
cation of Maine, and many other prominent
men.
The Alumni will very generally be present to
attend the formation of the Alumni ASsocia.

BASE BALL.-Last Saturday the Resolutes of
this city went to Saco and played the Excel
| siors of that city friendly game of ball. win
| ming by score of 20 to g. The play of both
nine was very loose, and the Resolutes astonish-
| ed some of their friends by an unexpected dis
play of muffinsm, but the Saco boys were hap.
Ply to know they did so we'll. They have good
nine and with practice they will soon be able
to compete with the best clubs in the state.
They gave the Resolutes and their officers fine
supper at the Saco House, kept by John P. Da-
Wis, ESQ.,, formerly Of this city.
Next Tuesday will occur the event of the sea-
son so far, in base ball circles, for then the IA
nous Lowells of Lowell, Mass, will play the
Resolutes game on Presumpscot Park, and
from what we know of the Lowels we expect
to see the best exhibition of ball playing seen
recently in this vicinity. The Lowells rank
among the very best amateur clubs in the coun-
try; in fact they are the rivals of the Live Oaks
of Lynn, for the first place. These two famous
clubs have played two games together this year,
and each have won one from the other, while
in championship games the Lowells are ahead.
Base-ballists say the Resolates will be badly
beaten in this game, but the friends Of the
Resolutes don't believe it, and won't believe it
until it's proved.
There is much curiosity to see this game, and
large crowd will undoubtedly be present.
POLICE NoTEs.-When John FL. Morrill,
went home Saturday night he found three men
lying drunk in his entry. He pitchedsthem in
to the street, when they began an attack upon
the house. Officer Crowell appeared on the
scene, and, with the assistance of Mr.. Morrill,,
two of the men were taken to the station after
hard struggle. An officer of the ship Bessie
Crosby interferred with the officers and gave
one of the men slung shot, He was also ar
rested, but as he has charge Of the ship in the
absence of the captain, he was released yester-
day.
Officers Merrill and jackson arrested Mary
o. Lars yesterday, and recovered silk dress
| she stole from Annie Maxwell on Cotton
| street.
Three Indians, full of bad whiskey, made
disturbance in front of the houses on the
Western Promenade, yesterday morning. Word
was sent to the police station, but two of them
had departed before the officers arrived. Dep
uty Bridges and officer Sterling arrested one of

Maine and the Centennial.

hUst
Portland, July, 1875.
The American Centennial is now an assured
success, and within a year the nations of the
earth will exhibit their choicest works of art,
their manufactures, and the products Of the
soil and mine, alongside our own, in the vast
buildings and enclosures of Fairmount Park,
in Philadelphia. 1t is now universally conced-
ed that no previous Worlds FAIR ever had
greater facilities or brighter prosp .cts, and we
most earnestly urge the people of our own state
be. justly entitled to some share of credit for
the great success of this International Exhib-
tOn.
We appeal to the people of the state for a
just exposition of our industrial and material
wealth. We want the products OF our cotton
mills along the Saco and the AndrOscoggin;
the fine woolers that have made Berwick, Vas
salboro, Dexter, Hartland and other manufac-
lures famous; every ingenious device and every
valuable contribution to mechanical skill; the
finest samples OF garden and field crops; speci-
mems of our woods, wood manufacture and
grasses; and the finest products of our stock
farms, our dairies and our fisheries.
And, above all, we desire to have exhibited
to the nation and the world the vastness and
variety of our material wealth. We want COL
lime of Knox and Aroostook; the feldspar of
Sagadahoc; the rich iron ore beds of Katahdn
and the far north; the wonderful slate quarries
that span townships and countless and which
comprise and combine every quality the earth
has ever produced; the marvellous granite,
from the pure white of Hallowell to the mot
tied of our outlying islands, the red of Jones'
port, and the marble of Deer Isle.
Full information as to space and classifca-
ton will be furnished by the undersigned. Con-
trbutions should be ready by Jan. 1, 1876.
Reduced rates of transportation are promis-
ed and specific terms will be seasonably an.
nounced by circulars.
Correspondence is solicited from all sources,
and every question and sugges lion will receive
ready attention,
Let all our people heed the invitation an6 the
promise; for IN benefit to individuals and in
honor and advantage to the state, nothing so i'm
portant can ever again offer; and if we are true
to this opportunity, we shall surely make a
showing in '76 that will do credit to our people,
and be an honor to our state.

The following gentlemen signed the state
Ar0OstOOk Notes.
Business : Crops-Industries - 'sPitcher'
Money, etc.

Houlton seems to feel hard times as little as
any locality in the state. There is considera-
BILE building and many evidences of improve
ment and business enterprise. The wooden
factory is doing fair business and is great
advantage to farmers in the vicinity. The new
cheese factory is receiving two tons of milk
daily with prospect of increase in quantity to
its full capacity e IA tons). The location is
excellent and it is probable its capacity will
have to be increased or another factory built
next season. The pasturage is excellent and if
associated dairying can be made success any
where in the state it can in ARGOS took county.
Houlton and towns in the vicinity are culti-
waiting potatoes more extensively than ever
before, the railroad and, starch factories Gre
ating a demand for them at prices more remu-
nerative than grain or hay crops. Shippers
have paid from 35 to 55c and the starch manu-
facturers agree to pay zoe this year. A factory
has been in operation two years at New LINER
lex, and there is one in process of construction
at Houton, two miles from the village.
Hon. Charles Shaw of Dexter is erecting an
extensive tannery at New Limerick. seven
miles from Houlton. He has purchased large
tract of hemlock lands in that vicinity. The
Shaw Bros, the owners of the tanneries at
Kingman, Vahceboro, and Forest City, are
making arrangements to build one at Houlton
near the railroad station. These enterprises
will help business and make home market for
farm products and afford employment for
teams and men.
Merchants generally complain of dull times,
but most say their trade is fully up to last year,
and some report an increase.
We learn from perfectly reliable sources that
but $4,000 of the "Jewett & Pitcher money"
was issued, and that but about $4,000 was in
circulation in Aroostook. 1t is also confidently
stated that the extension proposed will be
granted by the creditors and that arrangements
will be made to redeem the paper at face value
at an early day. Parties are offering 80 per
cent. but little has changed hands, as those
who are able prefer to keep ~ rather than dis
pose of it at a discount.
Crops, potatoes and grain are somewhat
backward, but are doing nicely now and COM
ing forward rapidly with good prospect of a
heavy crop. The hay crop will he about an av-
erage, no more, possibly less Large quantities
of old hay were "summered" last year, but very
little remains in the barns this season, the sur
plus having been sold at about $13 at Houlton
for shipping. S,
