The Statue of Washington.

The project of raising funds to send a
statue OF Washington to France, which was
started last winter under very favorable aus
pices, was laid aside during the vacation
season OF the summer months. 1t is now
brought again before the public with most
hatterlng assurance of success. Mrs. Nathan
Appleton, he president of the association. is
now In New York, attending to the central
organizations, and it will be seen from ths
accompanying list of vice presidents that
the matter is in able hands throughout the
country In several of the States an extern
sive organization has been perfected. in 9TH
ers the subscriptions may be raised more di-
rectly. We hope that the interest awakened
last spring in Portland will spread through
the State and that Maine will be ready as
usual to prove her patriotism and her gener-
osity.

PORTLAND AND VICINITY.
AFTER MANY MONTHS
OF Waiting and Longing, Mrs. New
land, Of Bath, Maine, In Very
Mysterious Manner Loses an Old
Stand 8y.


There are many ways of suffering in this world
as well as causes for Ii and this proves true in
the most remarkable case of Mrs. Newland, Of
Bath, Me. A few yesrs ago she suddenly lost
both father and mother from an acute form of ILL.,
ness; then an only brother passed away; leaving
her quite alone In the world. Naturally enough
these great troubles weighed heavily upon her
mind. She soon lost all appetite, and her strength
failed her. She was fearfully nervous; the least
jar or sudden shutting Of door would so startle
her that II would take an hour or more for her 10
get over the effect. Her stomach failed to digest
the food taken into it, and in that respect she suf
fered hard neuralgia pains; also from the great
amount of gas formed, and could not be expelled
and then she could sleep but for few minutes at
time. After time, Mrs. Newland commenced
to imagine things. Her friends she was stopping
with thought for sure she had lost her mind and
that she would become hopelessly insane. She
INSISTED thai there was an standing by her
right side, and he would not leave there. She
begged her friends to drive him away. and al
times she would be almost wild with nervous ter
ror Her friends, in this dilemma, did not know
what 10 do with her. All OF the physicians called
shook their heads and went away. A friend had
been reading of some of the wonderful cures be-
ing performed by Drs. Smith and McMullen, the
@@AoehosiN PAySASiohoy at ihC OuitCu OLdtto nOltb
Portland, and strongly urged them as last resort
to try them. They took Mrs. Newland to Drs
Smith and McMullen three weeks ago. They pro-
nouneed her case one Of complete nervous pros
trason, and treated her accordingly. 1t did not
take long, under the strong magnetic touch Of
those gifted physicians, to make Mrs. Newland
lose her old stand by, the man at her right side
Her appetite soon came back. All distress of the
stomach went as If by magic, and she is today a
well woman, and goes for an extended visit to rel
atiyes by advice Of her physicians. This is only
one among the many remarkable cures being con-
stanty made by these truly celebrated physicians.
They treat successfully all forms of chronic dis
eases, and none suffering should fail to call on
them.
Drs. Smith and McMullen are permanently
located at the United States Hotel, and can be
consulted free from 8 a. m. to D. m.

filuHY don't you show these goods in your
windows" said a gentleman who was
looking over our line of neckwear yesterday
Il didn't suppose you kept this kind of stuff.
When I'm passing a down town furnisher's
place and see the window filed with neck
ties, always stop to look in and nine times
In ten | see something there / want:-I
bought tie last Saturday precisely like this
one and paid dollar twenty-five for it !;
what's your price?"
The scarf he held in his hand was marked
w cents In plain figures.
Now the reasons why we don't make elab-
crate window displays of neckWear are sew
eral. 1st:-The windows are too large, The
entire stock of most furnishing goods stores
would be required to fill one. End 1T is a
lot OF work and takes long time to get up a
stunning window show,-one you couldn't
get by without looking in, audit isn't worth
while to spend the time painting merchan-
dlsescape that can only be seen two or three
days at the longest,-and that's about the
limit OF our window shows because there are
tWenty-six departments in the store all clam
0ring for recognition, and each must have its
turn at the window. 3rd We don't depend
on our window for toller anyway. Price is
what we bear down on in this department.
II you can't get necktie from us for ninety
eight cents that you'd have to pay a dollar
twenty-five for elsewhere, you're not likely
to forget it; maybe you'll tell somebody else.
that's the best kind of advertising. All deal
ers make leader Of 30 cent scarfs,-so do
we, only our price is 4S,-two cents isn't
much Of difference, but tbs something, and
1t is Indicative of the rnle all over the store,
-eceTythtng at a little less than the regular
price.
1t is about time for Haberdashery to have
its turn ia the window, and it will blossom
there In few days lin the meantime the
stock is ready for you to see, inside.

erty purchased by the proceeds of the

bonds; for the appointment of re-

NOT so BAD AFTER ALL.
Receiver Truesdale, and former presi-
dent of the road, takes a cheerful view
of the situation. He yesterday said:
The circular issued May 26 by the
company explains the cause of the
assignment. The interstate law and the
action of the RAILROAD commissioners of
Minnesota and Iowa are largely re-
sponsible for the trouble. Then every
dollar that has gone into the road has
gone into bonds and we have been
paying per cent interest on nearly all
of them and none bear interest less
than 6 per cent. In the face of the
other troubles, the interest amounting
to over half million dollars yearly has
been too great burden. The appoint
ment of receiver will have no effect
upon the road as far as Minneapolis is
concerned. 1t will RIM as heretofore.
In the meantime the company will be
reOrganiZed on stronger basis. The
bondholders will meet, and if an AMIGA
BILE agreement is reached, thee will cut
down the interest to or per cent,
where it should be, and issue new
bonds, taking the percentage of them to
which they are entitled. This will be
fixed up in year, unless there is a fight
and the case gets into the cOu, tS'

WINNIPEG, June 2s.-Matters have
apparently reached a climax in regard
to the construction of the Portage
link. Although it has been repeatedly
announced that no arrangement had
been made for the construction of this
road, it is learned on undoubted author
ity that provisional agreement has
actually been signed between the Mani
tOba. Central Pacific and Northern
Pacific railway authorities and the local
government, whereby the work is to be
completed by the former company.
The road is to be operated by the North
ern Pacific in connection with the Red
River Valley railroad. Vice President
Cakes will be here shortly to sign the
agreement. A check for s., ZOO to guar
antee that the road will be completed
this season has actually been deposited
with the government by the companies
interested. G. ii. Streval, well-known
contractor, has the contract for the en-
tire sixty miles, and is loading up his
outfit to-day. He will proceed to the
scene of action tomorrow. The first
sod is to be turned over in Fort Rouge,
near the point where the first sod of the
Red River Valley road was turned.
This is to be the junction of the roads.
The engineering staff started out to-day.
They proceeded to work at once. The
first sod will be turned aturday morn

PLYMOUTH
CLOTHING HOUSE.

Somewhere about 200 years ago, the
h printer put into a London paper notice
i that somebody wanted something: "Mr.
John Smith, haberdasher, next door to
the Three Black Crows, in Pudding Lane,
would like to meet person who has
| been out to the Plymouth Colony. in
America, and can give him information
concerning the Summer Underwear Of
the natives,'' or something like that.
This was the first adver-
tisement and it was a good
one. 1t didn't take the
|, shopkeepers long to find
out that a paragraph in the
paper was an excellent
means of communication
with people, who could be
drawn to buy their wares.
And they shortly found
that ink would stick to the
types to print whatever
they pleased to pay for.
So they got to stretching
the truth a little to make
their merchandise seem a
little more attractive than
it really was.
But people very soon
saw through the shopkeep-
er's tactics, and subtracted
a little from their repre-
sensations.
Then the advertisers
put on a little more mar
gin, and people took it off
by dividing instead of sub
tracing.
And this has gone on
ever since, till papers have
come to be published al
most entirely for advertis-
ing; advertisers vie with
one another in extrava-
gance and ingenuity of
statement; and nobody
reads a word of it all.
Great is advertising.
What advertising is for
then, appears to be to sup

Commission.
WASHINGTON, June 2S.-The inter-
state commerce commission has ZEN
dered an opinion in the case of the Bust
ness Association of the State of Mime
sofa, petitioner, against the Chicago g.
Northwestern Railway company. 1t
says: ''All that we can decide in this
proceeding now is that the rule insisted
upon by the petitioner, that the rate per
ton per mile, taken as basis between
Chicago and st. Peter, must be adopted
as the standard at stations between st.
Peter and Pierre, and that the latter
rates must decrease relatively for the
greater distance in the same proportion,
as between Chicago to st. Peter, is one
that in the existing conditions of trans
pOrtatiOn along the line of this railroad,
upon the evidence in this proceeding,
cannot be sustained. AS the complaint
is based upon this ground alone, and
was so tried by the parties and heard by
the commission, it results that this petit
ton must be dismissed"
The commission has also rendered an
opinion in the case of the same petit
toner against the Chicago, st. Paul,
Minneapolis & Omaha Railway COM
pany, in which the complaint is in the
same general line as i'm the preceding
case. After an exhaustive review Of
the law and evidence the commission
orders that the petition be dismissed.
