it is not unlikely that one of our New

name of the Hon. james G. Blaine its

Mr.. Blaine will assume any active edltori-
al work, but he will hold the position of
nominal editor 1t is proposed by those
who are working to secure his services
that Mr.. Blaine's name be publicly used in
connection with the magazine, and that

1t is an open secret among Mr. Blaine :
friends that he has had for some time
past decided inclination to make some
permanent literary connection. 1t is said
that he expressed his wish to a friend
shortly after his return from Europe, and
based on this fact the present offer has
been shaped and submitted to him. Mr..

toward attracting attention to any mag

has directly encouraged the submission
of definite proposal to him, nothing is
yet known of his probable decision.

The war department will soon adyer
tise for the pneumatic dynamite guns fol
which Congress appropriated 500, 900 al
its last session. 1t is thought that eight
large l5-inch guns can be bought for the
money, and also a smaller one for expert
mental purposes. Capt +, L. Zalinski
the artillery officer who has aided in dev
clipping this weapon, was here last week
and conferred with the secretary of wal
in regard to the matter. 1t is understood
that the eight guns will be disposed il
groups or two, and that one group will bt
placed in Boston harbor at some point t.
be selected by the engineer officer il
charge of fortitications. Two of TIL,
groups will be at New York, and the 9th
or one at San Francisco. The main chan
mel at Boston will be verey ehectually
guarded by these powerful weapons
which will be placed in sunken earth
works, so that only the muZzle of the
guns will be ieXposed to the fire of the
enemy.

CARlAGUNk, Nov. 2Sth, IS.
Mr. EDITOR On Thursday Nov. 10TH,
the Masons of Carratunk and their ladies
met those of Bingham and Scion at
Mon Hall, Bingham and pronounced it
one of the most enjoyable occasions of
their lives. All agree in declaring that
the Brotherhood of Binham amply paid
all the social debts they owed To their
brethren of Carratunk. The ladies of
Bingham are famous cooks but they out
did themselves on this occasion, the
tasteful arrangement of the tables being
especially noticeable.
The literary and social entertainment
was of the first order and it would be un-
just not to make special mention of the
finely rendered selections read by Mrs.
\. y. Burke and Miss Lue Colby. All
invited guests were entertained for the
night at the Stage House at the expense
of the Bingham Masons, and returned to
their homes feeling that they had inCurr-
ed debt OF gratitude which they could
only repay by faithfully practising the
sublime teachings of their glorious fra
ternity.
