at The order from the L. Court for the sale
of the boat to satisfy the claims against her was
revoked. The Bangor Commercial says: "Thc
whole has been most peculiar one and has
attracted much attention. 1t will probably he Il
long time before have another boat running
from Bangor to Rockland under the same manage
ment.". Capt Joseph Wentworth, who com
manded the steamer Mary Morgan last summer,
brought suit in the United States Court in Port
land before Judge Webb to recover his wages.
His libel was not included with the others when
the judgment against the boat was procured.
Judge Webb decided his case Thursday ruling that
the libellant was master of the steamer and rs
such he had no lien on the vessel for wages. The
libel was dismissed with costs for the respondent.

INTRODUCE TO BE EXPELLED.
From the PAIL Mall Gazette
An extraordinary affair has Just occurred in
Scotland On Thursday the Grand Lodge of
Scotland holds its quarterly meeting in the
Freemasons' hall, Edinburgh, to consider
among other business the Expulsion of Brother
William Edwards, and special censure ~
Brother j. o. Fraser and William Roberton
office-bearers of the Lodge Celtic, No. 29I." IL
appears that the offense of the brethren named
was in admitting two ladies to a lodge meeting
in May last, where they saw and heard a con.
siderable portion Of the proceedings while the
lodge was ''tyled in the third degree" The pre-
else height and depth of the 'brefhren's" offense
fore the grand lodge on Thursday. Itseems that
on the occasion of the funeral lodge held in
Freemasons' hall by Celtic, Edinburg and
Leith, No. 291, on May last, in memory of the
late Brother Alexander Hay, two females were
admitted to the inner approach of the organ
loft, where they saw and heard, through the
partially open glazed door, q considerable por-
ton Of the proceedings, which were being con-
Quoted while the lodge was tyled in the third
degree. The ladies were 30 admitted by
Brother William Edwards, acting past master
OF the lodge, who was called out Of the hall at
their request, and, having previously possessed
himself OF the key OF the door, he deliberately
broke the tying Of the lodge and placed the
tyler inside along with the ladies', with instruc-
lions to attend TO them. Edwards went back
to the hall and remained there until the cere-
mony was nearly concluded, when he returned
to the organ loft and had the ladies removed.
The committee have recommended that Brother
Edwards be expelled from the order.

As the Bride Tells 1t.

How interesting it is to hear an account of
wedding from the lips Of the happy, chattering
little bride herself, as she recounts the whole
affair to one Of her intimate friends, who
listens eagerly while the bride says:

mortal terror all the time for fear he'd drop

mine. It's mercy we didn't drop the ring be-
tween us! What il we had? I'd have died!
But we got through the ceremony without a
single mistake. And, oh, the church was love-
ly! Then came the reception and all that and
the congratulations. And il did sound too
funny to hear Will saying MY wife, at first:
he'd give my hand little squeeze every time

DELAYED RETURSs-A SOUTHERN ESTIMATE OF
HARRIsoN's CHARACTER.
The Charleston Is. c. Ne,rs and Courier. a
leading democratic organ, in an editorial
speaks highly of Gen. Harrison's personal and
public character; declares that he will be the
| actual as well nominal head of his admini-
stration, with no power behind the throne; that
Mr.. Blaine will not enjoy his counsels; that Mr..
Dudley and Mr.. Quay have reached the termi-
nation OF their influence; that there will be no
legislation or action hostile to the south. and
that the home-rule influences, under which
large amounts of northern capital have found
profitable investment, will not be disturbed.
but rather encouraged. The positive style of
the, editorial, and the fact that these utterances
come from Editor Dawson who is a member of
the national democratic executive committee,
and who has just returned from northern
visit, have caused much attention to be given
to the publication.
The London DAILY Ne,cs' correspondent at
Rome says: THE change in the presidency of
the United States will in no wise have any in
nuence on the personal relations with the
American government of the Roman clergy
President Cleveland is much attached to Carii-
nal Gibbons. President-elect Harrison is de-
voted friend of Bishop Chatard, of Vincennes,
who, although lacking the political influence
OF Cardinal Gibbons. is very popular with Cath
olics. Mr.. Blaine lays the greatest stress on
being popular with the Catholic clergy, and he
has ties of friendship with American priests

November Clothing.

FROM the New York Graphic.
Proper clothing for November includes soft,
firm, wooden textures next the skin. If some
OF the various varieties Of health wear cannot
be obtained good substitute may be found in
vests and pants made of pure flannel. Loose
ness OF fit is essential for in such pitiable folds
as these garments are forced into by pressure
OF outer garb, body heat is entangled as in q
net and retained, while outside cold is barred

tor, cannot bear wool next my skin. It causes
lntolerable itching and is uncomfortable. +"
Very well, is the answer, ''but try it Just for

restless you may change" Inside the given

THE ANTIQUITY OF BAKING.
Bread-Makfng Prehistoric Art
Egyptians as Bakers and their Skill.

From the Chicago News
The origin Of baking precedes the period Of
history, and is involved in the obscurity Of the
early ages Of the human race. Excavations
made in Switzerland gave evidence that the
art OF making bread was practiced by our pre-
historic ancestors as early as the stone period
From the shape Of loaves it is thought that no
ovens were used at that time, but the dough
was rolled into small round cakes and laid on
hot stones, being covered with glowing ashes
Bread is mentioned in the book Of Genesis
where Abraham, wishing to entertain three
angels, offered to ''fetch a morsel Of bread"
Baking is again referred to where Sarah has
instructions to ''make ready quickly three
measures of fine meal, knead It. and make
cakes upon the hearth" Lot entertained two
angels by giving them unleavened bread. The
mere mention Of unleavened bread shows that
there were two kinds Of bread made even at
that time.
The art Of baking was carried on to high
perfection among the Egyptians, who are said
to have baked cakes in many fantastic shapes,
using several kinds of -four. The Romans took
up the art OF baking, and public bakeries were
numerous on the streets Of Rome. In England
the business Of the baker was considered to be
one so closely affecting the interests Of the
public that in 1895 an act Of parliament was
passed regulating the price to be charged for
oreao. 1hls regulat1on continued In operation
until 1922 in London, and until 1886 in the rest
OF the country. The art Of making bread has
not yet reached some countries in Europe and
Asia. In the rural parts of Sweden no bread
Is made, but rye cakes are baked twice year.

fury ago that bread was used in Scotland. the
Scotch people of every class living on barley
bannocks and oaten cakes.
Owing to the fact that bread is sold very
cheaply In Great Britain, the bakers of that
country are poorly paid class of iaborers.
For years the employers made use of child
labor to such an extent that parliament in
1868 passed law making it criminal offense
to employ a young person under the age Of
eighteen years to work in a bakehouse between
the hours of O'Clock pm. and o'clock am.
As most of the work done by bakers is in the
night, this statutory law in Great Britain vir-
tuaily prohibits child labor in bakehouses. In
all countries of the world wheat flour is the
principal material for making bread, although
rye is used largely among the peasantry in
some parts of Europe. The price of bread has
always followed the market price of wheat
very closely, and recent rise in wheat add
vanced the price of pound loaf in Chicago rs
per cent.

The Happiest Country in Europe.

DR.. Alice Vickery, of England, alleges that
France must be the happiest country in Europe.
She says thatwhile the surplus in women in
Great Britain and Germany amounts to nearly
100000 and 100000 respectively, France, in
1881, had surplus of only 80, 900 women, and
marriages are more prevalent in proportion to
the population in France than elsewhere.
France has the lowest birth rate of all European
countries, 1913 to thousand, against 81 for
Great Britain and SO for Germany. The aver
age number Of children in a French family is
now 90, against 4.6 in England and Wales, 525
in Scotland and ga in Ireland Germany has
nearly five to q family. France has a
greater proportion of grOwn-up persons than
any other nation in Europe, the number of
persons in each 10000 between the ages of
fifteen and sixty being. in France, 5,373; in
Holland, 4.ss4; in Sweden, 1854; in Great
Britain, 4,732; in the United States, 4,S9S
France has the highest average ages of the
living, S.06 years, against Holland, 2776;
Sweden, 27.66; Great Britain, 1855; the United
States, 23.1. In France, out of every hundred
