A curious freak of nature has occurred
on one of Erastus J. Marks apple-trees.
1t is of the SOps-ofWine variety. On one
side of the tree appears the full grown fruit
and on the other side, where there is no
fruit, the tree blossomed last week.-Mr.
Greenlef, the contractor to build the Waldo
boro shoe factory, desires to employ Waldo
boro mechanics and will probably have work
for about twelve joiners and few other
men. The material will come by rail and
good many teams will be needed to haul the
lumber to the factory.
Warren.
The local branch of he Chautauqua Literary
and Scientific circle in this town is
named for the late Cyrus Eaton, the histo-
rian of Thomaston and Warren. 1t is a
most appropriate manner in which to keep
alive the memory and good works of a
worthy man and polished scholar and his
torian.

Richmond:
One hundred and fifty dollars, of the nee
essary 220, needed to pay the outstanding
shoe factory debt, and enable the company
to build another factory has been subscribed
during the past week. OF this sum, Mr. j.
S. Naxcey of Gardiner, for the Water Com
pany subscribed $50. The interest of the
Water Company in the success of the new
enterprise is commendable, and will surely
be followed by an increase of business on
its part brought about by its own liberal
policy. With only $50 more to raise, the
erection of another shoe factory in this enter
prising village this fall, may be regarded as
sure. Let the boom, boom,
