Takes Rank With the Leaders.
Gardiner Reporter.l

In the Portland Daily PRESS the Republi.
cans of Cumberland County have an able
exponent of their political preferences, as
well as a most valuable dispenser of the
news of the day, always served in an attrac-
tive and readable manner, and that 1t is ap-
preciated is fully demonstrated in its large
and growing circulation. Possessed of all
the facilities necessary to frst-class news
paper establish ent, the PRESS takes rank
with the leading daiies of the State, and
justly enjoys lucrative patronage.

England.

The Portland PRESS is one of the best
newspapers in New England. 1t is inde-
pendent In the expression of its views,
prompt in giving the news of the day and Is
a Republican organ, which though fair in
the expression of political matters, makes no
tell which side it is on. To the citizens of
the coast towns its shipping list alone, which
is very full, is worth great deal more than
the price of subscription.

MR. AORNADAY RESIGNS.
He Was Unwilling to Remain in Sub
ordinate Position.

Prof. William T. Hornaday, who has been
acting as superintendent Of the new geological
park, has handed in his resignation to take
effect on June Is and the resignation has been
accepted by Secretary Langley of the Smith
sonian Institution. This action Of Prof
Hornaday's was great surprise to every one,
as he has been superintendent in charge ever
since the appropriations were made for estab-
fishing the park. He has been in the heartiest
sympathy with the new institution ever since
it was first discussed, and large share Of the
success that has attended it SO far has been
due to his zeal and untiring energy. Previous
! to the establishment Of the park Prof Horna-
day was curator OF the department Of
living animals in the Smithsonian,
department that was established at his
| earnest solicitation. When the pros.
| pect Of . geological park became . reality
Prof. Hornaday at once took charge Of tho
work connected with it, and being q naturalist
as well as q scientist he found it very congenial,
and threw himself body and soul into it. He
has declined number Of business offers more
tempting from a business point of view in order
that he might devote himself to building up
the new park. For more than year
he has not been connected with the Smithso n
ian Institution, but has been under the zoolog-
ical park commission. But the park is now to
be organized under the Smithsonian Institu-
ton and it seems that it has not been Prof.
Langleys intention to make Prof.. Hornaday
superintendent under the new dispensation.
On the contrary Prof. Hornaday was
recently told that he would be
expected to work under another superintepd-
ent who would have charge Of the new park
and its future development. Mr.. Hornaday
would have had fairly responsible place, but
the real authority was to be placed in tn
hands Of Mr.. G. Brown Goode, the assistant
secretary of the Smithsonian, in charge of the
National Museum.
Mr.. Goode was to have ret aimed the charge
OF both institutions. This arrangement did
not please Mr.. Hornaday and his resignation
was the natural result Mr.. Langleys reason
for not continuing him as superintendent is
that Mr.. Hornaday has not had sufficient ex-
ecutive experience to entitle him to the POSI-
ton. Mr.. Hornaday has been con-
nected with the Smithsonian for
nine years as taXidermst and
naturalist He offered to continue in his
position for six months on condition that if he
made o single misstep or error of judgment he
| should step down and out without anything
more being said. His offer was declined
Prof. Hornaday and Secretary Langley part on
the best of terms and Mr. Langley's letter ac-
cepting his resignation was a fattering testi-
monial to Mr.. Hornadays abilities and record
in Office.
Mr.. Hornaday expects to go into the real
estate business in Buffalo, where he will make
his home in the future.

the seeming fury of the elements and at long

considerable damage was done in a small way
there was no loss of life or serious destruction
In numerous places trees were broken or up
rooted. loose boards lifted and tumbled reck-
lessly around, old buildings shaken up and un-
protected vehicles drifted around.
ALONG THE EASTERN BRANCH.
The most damage was done along the
Eastern Branch in South Washington, where
the storm seemed bent on making even for neg
lect yesterday afternoon. when the
Mr.. r. T. Tslbert's two-story brick
grocery, on 18th street southeast be-
tween NJ and n, was completely unrooted,

Choosing a Sweetheart.

Choose your sweetheart carefully, wisely and
tenderiy. my dear girls. Remember he is to ss
even more than this to you some da5-he is to be
your husband. for surely you are not one OF the
girls who have sweetheart here, and ons there.
and give little love to this one and little to
that one until, when the real one appears, tina
perfect bloom Is gone from the peach. and she
cannot give him what he offers her. You girls
know very quickly when man means more than
ordinary friendship for you. You have an in
stinct that tells You that this big good COOKING
fellow Ees come sweethearting. and that that Il
tbStims for you TO stGdy him q little bit. Think
ons Il mis- temper and yours are certain TO agree
well together; think out ii bis tastes and yours
are alike. or II they can grow to be 30. for yea
know, little women, IL you want to be happy in
your yparried life, you must learn che great and
wonderful virtue of adaDtability.
You mus, choose your sweetheart as Jon do
new gown. so that he viii wear well; but you
want him for longer than : winter; he must last
tfr6hgh the long summer days and through the
winter ones, and before you put your hand in
his and tell him that you are willing 70 fight cus
the battle of life together think II al oyer we'll
and remember that you are choosing your
sweetheart not for a das or = year, but for aii
through life and please God, IL yea love each
other enough, for Aftar death.

here. The natives seek to justify the
monstrositieA on the plea that the feet
should be clad loosely and stoutly. The
truth, however, IS that English women
have big -abnormaliy big feet.
Moreover, marvellonsly low iusteDs seem
to be characteristics of the typical En-
glish foot the English women are ex-
ceedIngly sensitive upon the subject OF
their prodiSious pedals, and they make
it point to talk of, the propriety of
wearing large boots and shoes in order to
avert eorns and other similar discom-
forts; yet am told by dealers in foot
wear that corns and bunions are quite as
prevalent here as elsewhere. Yet there
have been English ladies with wonder
fully small feet. One OF the famous
beauties of the court of George ". wore
q shoe only five inches In length, yet she
was above medium height and was other
wise symmetrIcaIly proportional.

Hartford Courant.

Persons having old postage stamps
sometimes think they are rendered worth
less By the issue OF new ones. This is
not So The only obsolete stamps are
those Of the issues Of Is47 and 1851. very
few Of which are now in existence ia the
North, and thsss are generally worth
more than their sacs value for collectors.
The issues Of 1851, 1869 and 1870 are as
good In the payment OF postage as fhe
new issues. The reason the issues OF
'lS47 and 1851 are not accepted is because
large amounts OF them were outstanding
10 the South at the time OF the rebellion,
and the present holders OF them probably
secured Them without rendering au
