= " q IN. Island.

Swans Island has one of the finest har-
bors on the coast of Maine. capable of &C
commodating 1000 sail of vessels at time
with good anchorage. There are two light
houses built on Haecamockka head. on the
north side of the western, or Ship Channel
entrance IN the harbOr.
The geology of the Island is fast spring
ing into importance. 1t shares well with
other places in the county in gold deposits.
One mine has been opened on Mr. Joseph
Torry's land. for which he has been paid
$500 by the company, and shaft house
and powder house have been erected under
the supervision of Mr.. Israel Johnson of
Bluehill. The ore has assayed S27.90 to
the ton and growing better as they go down.
Several others have found still richer quartz
on their lands. among them Capt. John 5.
Staples. There appears TO be any quantity
Of the ore. The strata run nearly west
southwest. and so crops out on Harbor Is
land at the old Harbor, owned by VIM.
and Capt. Michael Stinson. This metal on
Harbor Island was discovered eighty or
ninety years ago, specimens of which were
taken to Boston and declared not to be gold.
But the metal was so good that Mrs. Prince,
a native. had thimble and scissors chain
made of it. The newly discovered ore may
not be the same. 1t is bonded for $1,000,
and hopes run high that the new discoveries
are going to be source of wealth. There
is plenty of good building granite at Long
Cove in the old harbor, Seal Cove. and
Northwest side of Mackerel Cove, and ex-
cellent facilities for building wharves for
shipping it. There are strong indications of
iron in some places. Professor Jackson in
1898 visited Marshall's Island, one of the
Swans Island group, and on the western
shore found rich vein of magnetic iron ore.
The Professor plunged steel pointed bar
into the ore, and innumerable particles
chung in rich festoons to the point of the
bar; he also suspended the bar by string
and it oscillated to the north. The writer
took piece of the ore from the vein, about
the size of a hens egg and placed il 10 the
Mariners compass and the card followed
the ore round as fast as it could be car
ried

entertaining lecture in Hancock Hall. Fri
day evening last The lecture was album
dainty illustrated with views of European
Scenery selected by the Doctor during her
travels in England, France. Germany. Italy
and Switzerland. By the assistance of
double lens Stereopticon the views were
thrown ca a large screen in such a manner
as to produce the most pleasing effect and
the vivid descriptions of the different places
were not only very interesting but highly
instructive. The Doctor deserves great
credit for preparing and presenting so pleas
ant an entertainment to the public, as well
as for her generosity in donating the pro-
ceeds to a benevolent object.

THE plan Of cremation for the disposal of
dead bodies seems to be slowly gaining
ground. 1t has not rapidly spread over the
country, bnt every year the number who
prefer burning to burial increases. The st.
Louis Globe Democrat says: although we
we're able to report the organization of 8 ere
nation society in st. Louis several months
kgl. We regret ttst ttM ar. re member of
the society has illustrated his faith by his
works, and St. Louis is yet to be credited
with its first cremation. The furnace of DR..
L"moyne reported new subject on Thanks
giving day, but the rarity of such case, sug-
gests that the new idea is not making rapid
Roadway. One of the circumstances calcula-
tel to discourage cremation is the experience
of that widower whose second wife reveDged
herself for the constant praises of the frat
wi e's virtues by using the ashes OF No. for
tooth powder"

THE question of farm labor and how to
obtain an adequate supply for the benefit Of
the agricultural interests is claiming the at
tention of the farmers of the south. In
Louisiana the planters have an organization
to look after the matter. This organization
has sent an agent to Europe several times to
employ laborers, and under his efforts Portu-
gese, Gallicisns and Piedmontese are being
procured, who prove 10 be good field hands.
Texas sadly needs more labor. Tho cotton
crop would have been fully ono-fourth larger
than It is if labor could have been found to
gather it. No one can deny that the in
PRODUCTION of suchlsbo is much needed, and
it certainly is time that some step was being
taken in this direction by our agricultural
classes.
