interested observer there is lack, to
some extent at least, to that true hospi-
tality so satisfying to public expectation
on an occasion like the present visit OF
the Odd Fellows, aud other visitors the
celebration has attracted to your city.
For instance, to the street notice, ITO the

timating that, upon the whole, a different
spirit has prevailed in the present case,

friends believe that if your leading spirits
would be just little more liberal, hos
pitable, social and unselfshly enterpris-
ing your already fine city would forge
ahead at higher and more permanent

markably good work. A few days ago a

this city, where he gave the name OF j;
Deviney, and was adjudged guilty and
sentenced to forty days in the County
Jail.
Later on in the day Mr.. Smith noticed
newsboy looking at a handsome gold
Masonic emblem. He asked the boy
where he got it, and he said that picked
it up. By its appearance it has been
wrenched from a watch chain, and it is
held for identification at the San Fer

FOR eicN

The peaceful tone of Emperor Will
Jams speech in opening the Reichstag
yesterday was in striking contrast with
some of his previous utterances. He
stated that Germanys relations with all
foreign powers were peaceful and he eX-
pressed the hope that 81 and my allies
and friends with Gods help, will be able
to preserve the peace of Europe This
is somewhat egotistc but 1t is sn i'm
provement over previous fulminations
from the "war lord and wild talk about
shedding every drop of German blood in
defence of Alsace.
The meetings announced to be held

government agents will mingle with the
people in the cemetery and try and pro-
yoke a conflict The leaders in the dem
onstration will then be arrested on trump

plotting against the state and will after

A disagreeable piece OF news comes
across the water to the effect that the
stern of the English gunboat Scout has
sunk considerably, and that the rear
frames show signs of weakness. This
sign of structural weakness acquires I'M

boats Yorktown, Bennington and others
recently built for our navy are patterned
closely upon the English model, which
now shows signs of failure.

The Statute Of Washington

The prospect OF raising funds to send
Il statue of Washington to France which
was started last winter under very favor
able auspices was laid aside during the
vacation season of the summer months.
1t is now brought again before the public
with most fiattering assurance of sue
cess. Mrs. Nathan Appleton, the presi-
dent of the association, is now in New
York, attending to the central organiza-
tions and it will be seen from the accom-
panying list of vice presidents that the
matter is in able hands throughout the
country. In several of the States an ex-
tensve organization has been perfected,
in others the subscription may be raised
more directly. We hope that the inter-
est awakened last spring in Portland will
spread through the State and that Maine
will be ready as usual to prove her pat
riotism and her generosity.
Mrs. Sweat, the vice president for
Maine, will be assisted by some of our
best known ladies', whose names will soon
be published and to whom subscriptions
may be sent. 1t is intended that all shall
have an opportunity to join in this dem
onstration of national friendship and the
small sums that children, who have been
taught to love and reverence Washington
may desire to send and thus to identify
themselves with this great movement,
will receive cordial and worthy welcome,
while from those of our citizens who are
glad to see the older objects of our rever-
ence kept before grateful people, more
substantial contributions are hoped for,
The following ladies have the matter in
charge:
