LI'rrEE 70 rue CnNrrArQr ANS. Rev Geo
-. Lindsay, Of Bangor, president of the Maine
board Of thautauquans, lcctured at the Baptist
Church, in this city, last Thursday evening. The
public We're invited and lair audience was pres
cnt. Mr.. Lindsay gave Il brief account Of the
thautauqua work but said he came chiefly to an
swer questions. He said that in every community
there are four classes OF readers. First the read
crs of vile literature second, romantic or vision
AIRY readers; third, thoughtless readers those who
read much but digest little. and fourth the ,,csu
tory reader, who read, a little of everything The
aim of the Chautauqua course is to Danish the first
and correct the other evils. The course is for all,
both old and young 1t gives its students an idea
of the classics and enables the mother to keep
along With her son who is in college. The lecture
was interesting and enjoyed by all who heard it.
The speaker urged the Chautaueuans and all others
to attend the Maine Union at Fryeburg from July
30th to Aug. nth. Firstclass speakers will be in
attendance and an excursion is to be made to the
White Mountains.
TIE CITY 5 VALUATION. The assessors have so
far completed their labors as to approximate the
valuation, although the final footing may change
ii dollar or two. As was the case last year we
have increased the aggregate valuation notwith-
standing there has been a loss in personal proper
~ Several vessels have been sold abroad, others
lost, beside a general shrinkage in the value of
the vessels remaining. This is Il natural result
with this class of property. The real estate, how
ever, has increased sufficiently to more than over
balance the loss in personal property. The total
valuation, as found hy the board is S255i,9so Iii
vided as follows Real estate 81, 49,, $780, personal
property s19l,6o7. Last year the valuation was
$2,37,509 as follows: Real estate 81, 49, 0s5, per
sonal property, SSo2.224. The percentage of tax
alton will he Si9 ON $1,000. Last year it was $3.50
on $1,000 and highway tax S22O on $1,000. This year
| the highway is all cash and is reckoned in with
the SO on $1,000. The amount assessed this year
is S5l ,4'i!E' The tax this year will be the same
rs last with the exception of the polls, which arc
500. The completion of proposed improvements
must largely increase the valuation another year.
