Mr.. Scott, of the perfecting print
ing press bearing his name, says that
a few years ago, when connected with
the hitter Ocean, it printed a paper of
204 pages. Ten days we're required
for the presswork. Each sheet of four
pages was folded inside Of the other,
making the weight of the completed
paper 81 lbs. No carriers could pre-
tend to deliver the route, consequently
60 wagons were employed for deliver
ing the edition 10 the mail aud the
city patrons. The Chicago city tax
list was the immediate cause Of this
monstrous paper. the advertising of
which amounted to $40, 900.

artist from Cleveland made the &C.

ed an ardent attachment for her which
was fully reciprocated. When the
lover proposed to the father to address
his daughter he was kicked down a
fight Of stairs. Attempting to carry
his point with the mother, he was
treated to dipperful of scalding wa.
ter. The daughter was held prison
err in her chamber, but managed to get
note to her lover informing him
that all communications appearing
in the personal column of Cincinna-
ii paper addressed to Jeanette and
signed jean would receive attention.
Correspondence was carried on in this
way for some time. when the girl was
permitted to make a prolonged visit
in Cleveland. Meeting her lover
there, they we're married, and resided
at the groom's fathers for four months
without the marriage being discover
ed. Returning home, the wife, after
a time, found herself about to become
a mother, but had not the courage to
divulge the secret. She gained her
parents consent to go to school at Gin.
cinnati. Arrived in that city, she in
in few days informed her husband,
through the old channel of the news
paper, that he was father, and the
happy parent hurried to her side.

Reading for Liehtkeepers.

Few people have any idea of the immense
amount of good they can do with old books,
papers, albums or engravings. Messrs. W. S.
Jordan & Co., Commercial street, who have
the contract for supplying the lighthouses in
this district, are about making up their sup
plies to be sent to those lights that are inacces
sibe in winter as general rule. The vessel
will leave October LIST. The reading matter
for the families of these lightkeepers will go
by the vessel. All books, pamphlets, papers,
picture books and other literary matter that
our readers may have to bestow will be gladly
received by Messrs w. S. Jordan & Co., if
forwarded to them.
Mr.. Jordan informs us that these ligbtkeep-
ers pass around the books from one light to
the other. The picture books are god-sends tn
the children. The families of the lightkeep-
ers rarely get to the mainland. One light
keeper some time ago, situated in a lonely
lighthouse, out in the ocean, had nine daugh-
ters and only once in several years did these
girls ever get to the, mainland. All their
school books and reading were sent to them
and they were educated at the light. 1t is as
tonishing often to see what an intelligent set
of men these isolated hermits ara to whose
skill and unwearied attention is due the safety
OF SO many lives and 80 much property.

RAILWAY NOTES.
The Fastest Train.

The fastest railway train in this country
runs over the Canada-Atlantic. The Canada
Atlantic Railway is in operation from Coteau,
on the st. Lawrence river, to Ottawa, dis
lance of 70 40 miles. The Grand Trunk
Railway connects at Coteau with the Canada
Atlantic Railway, distance Of 81 miles from
Montreal. The Canada-Atlantc is operated
by its stockholders, and the general manager
is Hon. d. @. Linsley of Burlington, Vt. The
distance from Montreal to Ottawa via the
Grand Trunk and Canada-Atlantc RAILWAYS
is l16 miles. The Grand Trunk furnishes the
engines and cars which is run through between
Montreal and Ottawa on pro rata basis in Q
hours and 20 minutes; the rate of speed on the
Grand Trunk being Al miles per hour, and on
the Canada-Atlantic SO miles per hour.
Bangor and the West.
The Bangor correspondent of the Boston Jour
nal says: Bangor is now the centre of four rail-
roads, while two more are in process of con-
struction, and the whole water front is laid
with tracks. The Shore Line will bring here
many products of eastern field, forest and
farm, good share of which will be trans
shipped by vessel or steamer to points in the
New England and Middle States The Lake
Megantic road, on which work is now being
vigorously pushed, both in Maine and Canada,
will connect with the Maine Central Railroad
somewhere between here and Mattawamkeag
and thus direct aud short route will be
opened from Bangor to Chicago and the
West. The benefits to be derived from this
new trunk line must be large, as this port will
be a most convenient outlet for foreign-bound
freights over the road. and Ialso convenient
point from which to make shipments to the
west. The completion of this road (Which
may use the Bangor and Plscataquis Railroad
to approach BangorJ is awaited with great
interest by business men, who believe that it
will put an end to the freight discrimination
which now operates to Bangor's disadvantage.
Dealers IN grain, for instance, complain that
Portland houses are SO favored in the rates that
they can undersell Bangor in the territory
which should naturally be hers, and even 20
north and east of the Queen City with goods
"A trunk line to the west is the cry among the
grain and provision jobbers of Bangor, and
when the line is built the city's wholesale and
jobbing trade will probably increase to the
generous proportions which its extensive trib-
tuary territory is we'll able to support.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
HEARTS OF OAK.

hH<Ahlo Ot OAhs
Herne's "Hearts of Oak" will be proaIuceu
at Portland Theatre this evening Last season
we spoke in terms of praise of the manner in
which it was staged and its many good situa-
tions. The Providence Journal said Of the
drama: .'If the reception is any criterion it is
ora which will be popular. Certainly it is
wholesome; it is pathetic, full of action,
Astounding in scenes which tend to draw ones
tears, and it is full of drol and laughable posi-
tions also. There is no one part, which, taken
by "star," overshadows all the others. The
&C tors are all well trained and competent
One OF the best, or, at any rate, one of the
most appiauded actors is the baby, veritable
infant only few months old. Another is
little Maud Thompson, child of about five
summers, that takes the part of Little Chrystal
in the fifth aud sixth acts. Mr.. James A.
Herne as Terry Dennison, proves himself to be
an actor OF high order, and although the charac
tor does not give him an opportunity to develop
any very great talent, it yet affords him a
chance to show himself capable of performing
well in the emotional DRAMA
POP.
Rice's Surprise Party played Pop at the
Bjou Theatre, Boston, for six weeks this
season to large and delighted audiences. The
people in the cast are all good and are all we'll
generally. The burlesque is full of bright
music, good situations, and funny business if
our exchanges are to be believed. The tickets
can be secured at the theatre.
CAD, THE ToM-BoY.
Carrie Swain will be at Portland The atre
the first of next week in "Cad, the Tom-Boy."
The Worcester Spy says: "There was
large audience at the theatre Saturday night,
who found much that vas amusing in "Cad
the Tom-Boy," with Miss Carrie Swain as
Cad. Although pleasantly remembered in
the Tourists there were few who looked up
on her as capable of the work she is now do
ing successfully She is full of life and vivaci-
ty, laughs, sings and dances excellently, and
seems fully deserving of wide and profitable
popularity. The supporting company was
good, the piece was we'll set and the audience
well pleased"
The Maine Central, Grand Trunk and Port
land q Rochester roads will run half fare
trains to the Stockbridge matinee Oct 9th
when the Ideals produce the "Weathercock."
Music and Drama seems to be in reorgan-
lzing condition judging from the last number.
The editors remarks in reference to several
old contributors are hardly in the usual good
bye strain.
"Mr. Wilson. as the founder and director of
the matrimonial insurance bureau in the new
play OF Warranted" produced at the Boston
Museum was in the best vein, and presented
the alternate ecstacy and woe of that func-
tionary with rare and amusing skill. The
role is one that is not in the line with which
he is most closely identified in the midst of
thestre-gosrs, being less strongly original or
eccentric in character than those he is wont to
assume so successfully, but he has seldom been
seen to better advantage" so says the Boston
journal.

LIFE SAVING SERVICE.
The New Kennebec Station Nearly Com
pleted.

The life-saving station now in process of con-
struction. at the mouth of the Kennebec river
is progressing very rapidly and will be COM
pleted and equipped ready for use in about
three weeks. The house, which is one of the
largest on the coast, is being constructed under
the personal supervision of District Superin-
tendent John M. Richardson, of Portland the
contractors being Jordan & Bond, of Auburn.
The house is strongly constructed, all the joints
being fastened with galvanized iron, and it is
the opinion of gentlemen skilled in the BUSH
ness that it will stand any gale that may aIise.
This station, which is the only one between
Biddeford Pool and Bar Harbor, has long been
needed, as many disasters have occurred near
that locality. During eight months of the
year eight men will be stationed here, and they
will patrol the coast north to Fort Ponhes5Yns a
distance OF eof mile, and south
ives, west 70 Morse, River, distance of three miles,
Inc outlook from the observatory commands

tion at this point has been awarded.

LAUNDERING on the Penobscot,

season, up to about 100000, 900 feet. OF this.
about 50,o00,000 feet or 5000 900 will have
been shipped before the opening of another
season, leaving reserve stock of about the
same proportions as that of this year. The de-
mand for manufactured lumber has been gener-
ally steady this season, aud prices have ruled
shade higher than those of 1882. The OPERA

successful IA few of the latter were somewhat
crippled by heavy fres), and will probably con-
duct business on a generous scale next winter.

SHERMAN MILLS, Sept, z.
The long continued dry weather makes the
harvesting of grain and potatoes pleasant
task. The starch factory is being driven on
extra time and running two dry houses. From
1000 to 1000 bushels are received at the factory
daily. The rust injured the crop very much
and only the earliest planted yield much above
100 bushels to the acre; grain crops are general
ly good. Apples are scarce but not high yet.
Stock and lambs are commanding a very fair
price which will compensate for the light crop
of potatoes. @.
