Piscataquis Falls for the new pulp mill at
Enfield, which will require that all that see

their protection from the spear and net. In
deed all tae Penobscot river now requires
protection from the Water Works dam above
Bangor TO the mouth of the Wlsssttiquoik on
on the east branch, and the twin dam on the
west branch. If the salmon fishery of the
PenObscot river of the Atlantic coast of the
United states is to be preseryed, there must
be no fishing above tide water with hook
and line. This is opeH to all without favor
No salmon ascend above the Water Works
lam but to breed Every fish killed above
that point is just so much deducted from the
states fish production. For to grant a right
for two days per week netting above tide

virtually to open the door to unlicensed des
truction to every fish.

Ida, Grant Co. Wis. May the 10Th, 1888.
Aged 68 years, emo. IDA. The husband
and children, with brothers and sisters

friend.

reaved hearts. II. DEAL.
Words composed on the death OF Mrs E G Borah
One more loved one. gone before Us
To the heavenly home above,
Where ne sorrow ever enters.
Where its all peace and love.
Faithful one thy work is ended;
All thy labOrs are complete.
God has opened wide the gateway,
For his chssen's weary feet.
Only step to the better land,
With His gentle hand 70 guide
He lovingly leads his band.
To e chosen place at his side.
May we also each be ready,
When this earthly race is ran
When the b0stman rows us oysr
May the welcome be well done"
Dearest Mother we will miss thee,
From this earthly home below.
But we know thou art the gamer,
Reaping joys that th0u didst SOW.
Fair-thee-well our dearly loved one,
TIL we meet on that bright shore;
Where the flowers bloom etrn2l.
Where win part never more.

Rev and Mrs s w. Eaton arrive,

Rev. and Mrs. S. w. Eaton arrived
here last Friday evening They came
by invitation of the Lancaster Literary
Club. They were entertained at the
homes of Lieut.. Gov Ryland, NJ. NJ.
Ziegler and w. G.. Chandler. They at
tended the club banquet. On Sunday
morning DR.. Eaton occupied the pulpit
of the Congregational church. The
church was filed, and the discourse well
repaid the attention of the large con-
gregation. That day, May Goth, was the
41st anniversary of Mr. and Mrs Eaton's
marriage On the following evening
reception was given them at the resi-
dence Of Gen. j. B. Calls, who com
manded the regiment Of which MIR Eaton
was chaplain. The spacious parlors
were filled with those who came to offer
their congratulations. Refreshments
were served in the dining room through
out the evening Mrs Eaton was
presented with chair and Mr.. Eaton
a study table. After the presentation
by w. G. Chandler, Mr.. Eaton respond
ed in a few words Of thanks, taking
occasion to refer feelingly to the pleas
ant relations that had always existed
between him and the people here, and
expressing the hope that he might
retire to spend the evening of his life
in Lancaster Mrs. Eaton added her
thanks and expressed her love for the
people of our city. Gen. Calls present
ed them each with handsome bouquet.
Their visit here was one of mutual
pleasure and benefit both to them and
the people Of our city in whose hearts
they hold very warm place.

been the life long friend of many, I
might almost say nearly all here, and
/ know there is not one here who is not
proud to call him Friend. The senti-
ment is Aud Lang Sine and the speaker
the Rev. S. w. Eaton" 1t is needless
to say that Mr.. Eaton's response was
listened to with pleasure and was APP
propriate and felicitous. The toast
master then said The moral intel
lectual and material progress of our
nation is dependent upon many things
but upon no one thing more than upon
our schools Responded to by r.
Meyer, Jr. The truthfulness of George
Washington MAS held up as standard
for the children of to-day and the cherry
tree story was recommended as one to
be taught with the catechism.
The last toast was then called.
That our club is a benefit to us, its
continued exerticn proves. That TO
continue to be benefit it must improve
is trueism As we grow to better
understand our work we can do better
work is self evident 70 the sentiment,
Our Club work. Dr. s. Z. Hassell will
respond The Doctor reviewed the
work of the club during the year past.
We should be glad to give our readers
the benefit of all the bright thoughts
that were so well expressed in many
responses, There are. however, some
very good reasons for not establishing
the precedent of reporting the toasts at
these banquets In the newspapers. All
who were fortunate enough to be pres
ent agree in saying that the quality of
the wit and the excellence of the re-
sponses from a literary standpoint, was
quite remarkable. These banquets, as
well as the club itself, serve not only a
social, but an educational purpose in
our community. The banquet was
unanimously voted great success.
