We learn that a suit was brought yester-
day in the Supreme Court in Kennebec
county. in favor of the Quidnick Company,
of Rhode Island, and against the A. & W.
Sprague Manufacturing Company, and Zeci
ariah Chaffee- Trustee, and the Sprague prop.
erty in this city was attached to the amount
of $500, 900.
The grounds upon which the suit is based
are, as we learn from Hon. Z. f. Webb of
Waterville. counsel for the plaintiff, as fol-
lows: That the Quidnick Company of the State
of Rhode Island was not in the Sprague
Trust Deed, but Chafee. who was Treasurer of
the Quidnick Company, elected by the stock
holders, has run all the rest of the Sprague
supplies furnished by the Quidnick Company,
and that he has made a loss, in so doing, of
between million and half AMI two mil
lions-it is claimed to exceed the latter sum
In the suit in the L. S. Court, Chafee swore
that the Quidnick Company was not in the
Trust Deed. The stockholders of the Qud-
nick Company have brought suit against
Chafee. and the trust estate, for this balance
due them, which has been ascertained BY the
expert, from the books of the Quidnick Com
pany, and the A. & w. Sprague Manufactur-
ing Company, and for part of that amount
they have brought suit and attached the prop
erty in Maine, and for another, they have
brought suit and attached the property in
Rhode Island.

BURNETT'S COCAINE.
A Lady's Hair Saved by its Use.

Burnett's Cocaine will keep the hair in
strong and healthy condition by stimulating
the roots of the hair and restoring the natur
al action upon which its growth depends.
Twenty years ago a single bottle saved a
ladys hair in a desperate case where every
other treatment and failed; and since that
early success thousands of cases of Badness,
Dandruff, Loss of Hair and Irritation of the
Scalp have yielded to this remedy.
The superiority of Burnett's Flavoring
Extracts consists in their perfect purity and
great strength. tuth&s&wlm.

The practice of clipping or robbing coin,
that now is at its height in all parts of the
country, has resulted in inflicting upon the
current money Of Augusta, large number
of these disfigured pieces. 1t has become so
common to see silver coins with holes in them.
that very many give the matter no attention,
if what is taken may be passed to the next
man as easily. But so much mutilated coin
is in circulation, that the banks and many
tradesmen, even, refuse every piece that has
been tempered with. Government will not
take them in regular business, nor accept
them, unless at a deprecated value, accord
ing to weight. Until all follow the practice
of the few, the coin robbers will continue to
thrive. In the innocent age of the world, it
was supposed that punched coin had been,
at some time, attached to a pretty ribbon, to
serve as a charm, or that some curious-mind-
ed person had dsfgured piece in order to
recognize the same, if it came into his hands
again. But now it is well known that these
small splinters are Systematically Clipped of
for profit. The United States law fixes fine
of s., 900 and two years imprisonment, for
whoever defaces, mutilates, impairs, dmin-
shes, falsifies or lightens any coin. The
practice is half a century old, and the only
way to stop it is to stop the outlet for the
times. They are not legal currency.

Twenty-Five thousand logs lie in the water
above the Kennebec dam waiting to be turned
over. At Hallowell the great boom is full,
and at Browns Island, above Augusta, the
river is damned with logs for mile More
lumber will be foated down the Kennebec
this year than ever before it is said, as in
addition to the cut of last winter many of the
logs cut in 1880 were not hoated down last
year and so swell the drives. 1t is estimated
that from 40, 900, 900 to lGO, 100000 feet
of lumber will be driven down the river this
summer. Logs began to run when the ice
went out, and have been coming ever since,
but only one-third of the vast number have
vet passed over the dam. The rear drive is now
at Norridgewocl, and will not be along fer
month.
