Forest City Medical Spring

The Forest City Mineral Spring on Munjoy
Hill has attracted good deal of attention. It
is said by the State assayer, Mr.. f. L. Bart
lett, to be bright and sparkling, perfectly clear
and deposits no sediment on standing. 1t be-
longs to that class of mineral waters known as
saline carbonated. That this water contains
medicinal properties is highly probable, in
deed, it has been very effective in cases where
it has been used on trial. 1t can be drunk in
large quantities, without fear, if necessary
since it contains when fresh from the spring a
large quantity of carbonic acid gas, in solution
A pretty building bas been located over the

The Death of Mr.. Thaxter.


Mr.. James jackson Jarves, in his last latter
to the New York Times, under date of July
18th, writes: ''The young school of American
sculpture has met severe loss in the recent
death of Mr.. Edward R. Thaxter of Portland,
Me-, at Naples on his way to America. During
the early spring Mr.. Thaxter had suffered
greatly from an attack of typhoid fever and
been at deaths door for several weeks. On
his conyalescence his physicians recommends
him to make voyage to his native climate
complete his cure and avoid the hot summer
in Florence. He was reluctant to leave his
studio, having begun just before his illness to
set up several heads, and had ordered his
marble for his exquisite group of Loves
First Dream description of which 1 gave
last winter to the readers of the Times. But.
! believing it would entirely restore his health
by the change of climate and necessary repose,
besides being useful to his professional career,
he acted on the advice and embarked at Leg
horn on the Anchor Line steamer Castalia for
New York. in company with the Hon. John
Bigelow and his family. The steamer was to
touch at several Mediterranean ports on its
way. Three weeks ago, after having stopped
several days at Palermo, it went to Naples to
complete its cargo. Here Mr.. Thaxter,
having gone ashore and exposed himself in
sightseeing, was seized with brain fever, and
In two days died. The news was great shock
70 his friends and fellow sculptors in Florence,
both from his estimable qualities as man, the
great promise he gave in his profession of
taking foremost position, and doing b onor to
his country. As it is, we have now only a few
little works in marble like his 'Reproof,
Thought Meg Merriles' and Sunrise of no
special Importance. beyone indicating con.
siderable felicity of invention, to judge of his
genius, besides the Loves First Dream,
which has just been completed in plaster. On
this last piece alone Mr. Thaxter's reputation
must rest This is a composition of SO much
original treatment and graceful, poetical fancy
Is to deserve to be perpetuated in marble, even
If for the credit of American sculpture alone.
As the work of young man barely % years
of age, fresh from Maine, it is certainly re-
markable. The citizens of Portland should
sse that it is completed and placed in a con-
spicuous place in their city, in memory of him
and in encouragement of native genius"
