The Hospital Fair.

1t is very desirable that friends of the Maine
General Hospital, throughout the State, should
appreciate how confidently the committee in
charge of the fair look to them for aid in the
work. In almost every town of Maine are to
be found some persons who have cause for
grateful interest in the hospital for bepefit
received by themselves or their acquaintance.
and it is very suitable that the contributions
to the Hospital be as free from sectional limits
as are its own good offices. 1t has already
been signified to the committee that the ladies
OF Deering are ready to give generous help;
and it Is hoped that other towns will speedily
offer their aid. Contributions of money or
articles for sale will be acknowledged With
thanks in the daily papers, and no one should
feel that a .mall donation is not we'll worth
the sending, or will fail of its welcome; con-
tributions sent before the 10th of April may
by addressed to the care of Miss Helen Spring,
3OS Danforth street; after that date the COM
mittee will be in readiness to receive them at
City Hall.

1t was reported yesterday that the shoemak-
ers employed by Messrs. A. f. Cox & Son, had
struck for higher wages, and reporter for the
PRESS called upon the firm, and also had a
talk with the men.
Mr.. Cox said that the firms in Massachusetts
were making shoe that was lasted with a
string instead of with tacks, aud paying the
prices that are paid here for tackled shoes, and
that in order to compete with these firms his
firm wonld have to make the same hind of
shoes at the same prices as were now paid.
Mr. Cox said that by the new method the men
could make more shoes in day, as soon
as they got accustomed to it, and that his
firm guaranteed them as good pay as they
earned by the old method. He said there was
no strike, and that there was perfect good
feeling existing between the employer and
employed.
The reporter then interviewed the men, The
spokesman said there was no strike. The point,
he said, was that after giving the system fair
trial he found it was worth to the men to re.
ceive half-cent per pair more for No. shoes
made by the new method. For making No.
rs he had no fault to find with the pay Al
present he was working on No. rs, and was
satisfied. He should not be satisfied with the
proposed prices for No. 2's

such pure water is distributed in this city,
have just had completed for them some new
jars to hold the water, which they are conf

warmest summer days. II is glass demijohn,
around which is packed an inch of powdered
cork. This is covered with galvanized iron,
vanished and neatly painted. This is hung
in an iron frame. The water is brought from
the spring to their store in glass carboys, and
after being put in the jars is placed in re-
frigerator. 1t is delivered to customers ice

forty-eight hours. In offices and houses this

AN umpoRrANr PROJECT.

Company.

Several items have been recently published
concerning the New England and Acadia
steamship Company. The corporation was re-
Gently organized in Bangor but the projectors
nave peen reticent about imparting informa-
non' desiring to more fully mature their plans
peiore bringing the project to public notice. A
meeting OF the company was held in this city
on Saturday and since that session the officers
converse with greater freedom about the enter.
prise.
The company is organized with capital of
10000, and has ample funds to make ths nro-
ject a success. The Hon. Edward Gushing of
camden, veteran steamboat manager, is
President. Frank H. Clergue, Esq, OF this
city is Secretary and Treasurer The Direct-
ors are Hon. Edward Cushing of Camden,
Frank ID. Clergue of Bangor, and Thomas s.
whitman OF Annapolis with two vacancies
existing. Messrs. Gushing and Whitman were
both IN this city Saturday aud met with Mr..
Clefgue Ia tne same office of that gentle-
man.
The company proposes running steamship
from the terminus Of the Shore Line railroad
at Hancock to Annapolis, Nova Scotia, making
landings at Bar Harbor, Eastport, Campobello
and Dlgby: The distance is about 100 miles
between Hancock and Annapolis. Eventual

Stonlngton Line has been chartered and will
be placed on this route. She is of 1900 tons

during the next winter to build a steamship

lions. The Francis will leave Hancock on
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and de-
part from Annapolis on return Tuesdays
Thursdays and Saturdays. The hour of de.
parture from Hancock will be D. m. The
beat will leave Bar Harbor at 9, arrive 81
Eastport at q. m, Digby at 10 and Annapolis
at IL, starting to return at about the middle Of
the afternoon.
Close connections will be made with trains
at Hancock and the people of Nova Scotia will
thus be brought into quick, easy and CHEAP
communications with the States. The enter
prise is very important one aud there is ev-
cry promise OF a large and remuneratlve bust
ness being developed. Bangor will doubtless
reap many benefits from the establishment OF
this new line.
