A Down East Railroad.

There is one Maine railroad that pays; that il,
which is getting to be thoroughly sound and sut,.
institution This, an offset to the poor pros
poets OF some Of our well known ventures. is So
pleasant thing to believe that the muual report
Just out deserves more than formal statement
Here Is the statement
The Maine Central Railroad earned in 1876 81
300, and Its working EXPENSES were - .Oi2.IOU
net earnings. S6S4 800: leaving a balance Of 81
600 above interests and rents. In ISl1 the balance
was S20,319 While the gross receipt, OF 1876 te
short of those of lS15 by 80 2SI, he working rN
pcnses were cut down SlO1 900. ltir iug the net
earnings of the road larger by Si9,,Sl than they
i'll 1879.
And that this result has been brought about by
lcgltmite means the report shows in all its depart
ments. Nothing has been left undonr in the Way
of repairs construction that necessary to hH
done to keep the property in good condition. as Il
glance at the tables shows and the whole excel
lence OF the showing Is due To the good sense aud
the heroic economy practiccd by the Supcriuteud
ent Mr.. Tucker. the wnrklu4mru ON the Board OF
Directors and the Treasurer, Mr.. Cushing who ha7
managed his department with great success. The
road was never better served. but the decrease in
the pay roll alone is 0n0 Heretofore. rs, in man,
other like corporations the Directors hint than the
Improvement account has been made or allowed
to cover many and varied expenses, and this thc
report trusts Will never be allowed to shelter stray
accounts in the future Thus in 1873 over 90 0Dh
was charged under the head of improvements and
equipments; while, though nothing has been 50
charged III 1876 it Is believed that the sam" v;ut
OF "bettemcnts' can be shown III fact. Uu lhl,
point the report says:
In these remarks we do not intend to assert
that an Improvement account for II completed ntl
road Is at all times and under all circumstances
vicious and inadmissable hut do affirm than
such accounts are in all ordinary eases objection
able and hazardous for stockholders. and WhcG cN
isting in road in full operation may we'll suggest
careful scrutiny into the cause Of their existence
They may be made plausible and convenient
covering for iniudiciOu> and ndctrnsiblc rNpendi
lures. 1t is safe to blot them out"
The conclusion of the managers is that the
Maine Central has got done going to the Legisa
ture7 and is going about its affairs on II, own
great merits as railroad that hHs right to live
and grow strong; and if one may Judge from the
showing of this year and the hoprtulness Of gen
tlemen who know the bottom fact this stock il
before long going to be something that the people
Of the State will be justified i'll claiming MS sub
stantial evidence of her worth and thrift as Il
,nunity; for it has been by developing itself with
in the State more than by its outside connecting
schemes, that the Maine Central has won It's plr>

A Phase Of Western Life.

From the Monroe County (Mo.l Mercury.
About five Years ago Hiram Clark came
to this county from Illinois. and settled
near Madison, purchasing Il farm OF James
Alexander. Mr.. Alexander died, and his
sons administered on the estate. The
purchase-lnoncy on the farm bought by
Clark falling due, he could not pay it.
The administrators then rented the farm
to Clark, for one year, with the under
standing that if he could pay for it, he
should have it ut the original price. Time
passed on, and still Clark could not pay
for ii. Last Friday justice Belmear is
sued Il writ to dSpossess Clark of the
property, and placed it in Constable
Wade's hands for execution. On Friday
evening he (W adri. in company with two
assistants, Went to Clark S residence and
told him he must give up the land. Clark
refused to Vacate and drew Il pistol The
constable then took hold of him ;Inl tried
to diStrn him, but failed. Clark then
went to one corner OF the room. put Il
table between himself and Made, and
laying two revolNerS on ii sWUre he
would Kill the first man who attempted
his arrest. Wade stood his ground, and
ti''' iNo iiitll' ltttt " ldt"- WIN ItNbl-
Ncrs in hand, watched each other I'LL
night one determined to die rather than
give up The farm, the other equally deter
mined To dc his duty ;ls an officer The
long hours oi the night wore away and
morning daWncd. Still these men stood
face to face, nothing but the table be-
tween them. Finally Wade said he was
tired Of 1oolng about it, and intended to
dispossess him Of the farm, when Clark
raised his pistol and snapped Il cap at
Wade. AS quick as thought Wade fired
There was a heavy fall upon the floor,
and Clark lay dead before him.

Lost Child Found.

In the winter of lS60-6l Il lad of G wears was
found almost dead from cold and hunger by some
of the employees of Long Island Railroad in the
depot at Jamaica They soon found that the lad
was deaf and dumb, and therefore more than ever
entitled to their commiseration. They cared for
him and he took kindly to them, so that he was
taken up and down the line by one or the other
until, years crept on, 1t was deemed advisable to
give him some occupation. He became news
bow and has retained the post ever since, making
himself liked by every who travelled over the
road During all these years the only story of his
origin that the dumb boy could furnish hv signs
was that he had brothers and sister who lived with
their parents the side of pond near Il MILL in
which II great many girls worked No place on
Long Island answered this description, and it rc
manned Tor accident to verify the story told by the
boy of his wAnderngS. He said he went ont to
walk and walked till tired then IL wagon picked
him up, and after days and days he reached the
sea (Long Island Sound), and then he went on IL
ship, and after they sailed for two three days he
got out and walked till the men found him at the
depot. Last Wednesday, among the applicants as
fireman on the railroad was man from Fltchburg,
Mass, and while he was conversing with the men
around the depot, the story of the d'lmb boy was
referred to. Naturally curious, the fitchburger
drew the story out, and then said that he knew
family who lost deaf and dumb child about SIX
teen years ago, whose residence was situated as the
boy described but he did not know their names.
Conductor Talburst wrote the Postmaster ut Fitch
burg and in reply yesterday received the intorma-
ton that such child had been lost, and if he was
the one, on his right foot and right leg would be
found sears of two wounds made by an axe, and on
his left arm cross in India ink. The boy was
amined and he bears the marks described A de-
spatch was sent to Fitchburg announcing the fact
that on Monday he will start TO meet the mother

1t will be Il surprise to nearly every one
to learn that there is Il glen in the Maine
Woods, riyalling in all points Of interest
and surprising in many, the renowned
Watkins Glen in New York. Yet this is

southeast from the extremity of Lily
Bay, situated in one Of the unincorporat-
ed townships of Bowdoin College Grant,
there is Il glen between three and four
miles long, through which there flows q
river of considerable size, which has a
fall Of about eight hundred feet in pass
ing through the gorge. The rocky sides
of the chasm are composed of silicous
slate The walls of the glen vary in
height from seventy-tive to three hundred
feet. In some instances the bluffs over
hang the river. The mountains are COW

in trout. The scenery is grand beyond

size, and put some blocks on each corner

viii sit inside the other box, leaving Il
space Of ut least six inches on the sides
and bottom. Place a layer Of powdered
charcoal, fine sawdust, or some other good
non-conductor upon the bottom and set
the smaller box in. Then pack the char
coal or sawdust all about in the space be

lifting cover for each box. The ice should
be placed in the box in some tin vessel,
50 arranged that the water will run off
through Il small lead pipe passing through
the bottom of both boxes. If such re-
1ligerator is tightly and well made and
placed in a cool place, 100 pounds Of ice
will last week in it.
Every farmer should raise quantity of
beets for winter feeding, for there is no
root more cheaply produced of equal
value. Sow the seed early before dry
weather commences, and the plants will
get good hold Of the soil and penetrate
deep enough to reach moisture before the
