GARDINER.

A little after five o'clock last night, Ran
dolph people were treated TO new whistle for
the first time, from the new shoe factory.
Gardiner took up the echo and started for a
fire but soon changed its mind. Work
has commenced in the new building but not

could make it. There is fine cellar, which
will be used for storage room, the brick
walls of which are placed on a firm founda-
ton of Hallowell granite, laid eight feet in
the earth The boiler and engine are placed
on bed of masonry twelve feet deep. The
first floor will be occupied by the office, stock
room and packing rooms, the second floor is
the making room and on the third is the cut
ting and stitching rooms. while the fourth
will be used in manufacturing boxes. All
the drainage pipes are carried under ground
to the curreHt of the river. The company
will employ about two hundred hands when
full, and will improve business in the place
to a great extent.

The question naturally arises in the minds
of thoughtful consumers .Of what does this
impurity or resduum consist" In the case
of the first named powder there has been
recently given the result of an ana ysis made
by Prof c. f. Chandler, of Columbia Col
lege, late member of the New York State
Board of Health, which partially supplies the
missing information and as the manufactur-
ers of this particular powder are continuously
calling for the publication of all the ingred-
tents used in baking powders, there can be no
objection to its statement here. Among the
impurities Prof. Chandler found Cleveland ;
powder to contain large amount of Rochelle
Salts, 40 per cent of lime, with alumiua,
starch and water, in quantities not stated.
Alum is a substance declared by the highest
authorities to be hurtful. If the balance of
this residuum in all the powders named is
made up largely of alum, as it is known to be
in some, the public would like to know it.
Another official test that shall go quite to the
bottom of the matter seems to be demanded.

A Pine Horse.

1t was announced few days ago that
Capt. Thomas Mitchell, formerly of this
city and now of Santa Barbara, CAL, had
sold his fine stallion. ''kennebec,- to Mr..
George Fl. Black an Augusta boy who now
makes his home in Oregon.
kennebec is well known as one of the fine
bred stock horses of this country. His breed
ing is first class, he being son of the hand
some gray stallion Independence, record
PIG IL to pole, now owned by Rockefeller
of Standard Oil Company fame
in New York. His fine size, good
color, soundness, carriage, and tractable dis
position, have always caused him to be well
| thought of here, and now that such stock al
Mollie Mitchell, record 23o and with ability
of 2.20, have appeared, the demand
for his services becomes very eager.
Mr.. Bush bought ''kennebec'
intending to send him at once to Oregon, but
remonstrance has been so general, and the
calls for service, so numerous, that he has
| concluded TO leave him one season longer in
Maine.
His reputation is now so good that this, his
last season in the East, he will have a class
of patronage better than ever before and will,
no doubt, leave a class of stock which will be
a credit to the community and source Of
pride to his owner.

WILLIAM +. BARRows.

If any citizen wishes to make a practical
comparison of the United States government
of today with what it was forty or fifty years
ago, let him compare the official registers OF
the present, containing from eighteen hun
dred to two thousand pages, with the little
"blue book" of say, 1877, containing only
four hundred and twenty-five small pages
The fear which formerly existed of having
the blue book read by people in general
has now passed away. Is it because the
government is more honorably conducted al
the present?

1t takes warm sunny day like yesterday
to bring out the men who know just what is
best to be done in any emergency whether
it be in social. political, or religious life
Nothing is too vast to be disposed of by such
fellows in an easy off hand manner that is
characteristic and chronic. About the only
thing such men can't turn on
is work and when all the ques-
tons at hand have been settled, and
it is impossible to longer obtain hearers, they
saunter slowly home to see what wife has
got for supper" for it is sad fact that such
men frequently get excellent wives.
