A BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARY.
= Graceful Poem Written by Mrs.
j. n. Crockett.

A very pleasant gathering occurred on
Wednesday at the cottage of Edwin.L. God
ing, on Great Diamond Island, the occasion
being the SEVENTEEN birthday of his father,
Mr.. Ephraim Cooling, who was agreeably
surprised by his relatives in their re-
membrance of the event, by their many
tributes of regard, including an informal
dinner, poem written for the occasion by
ais niece Mrs. j. Henry Crockett, and other
pledges of affection. This is the poem:
Three score and ten Of years. have imaged now
Iheir changing scenes, upon your heart, and
brow;
Have meas measured out for you, what veal and woe
Apportioned, by subtle hand divine,
Yet, working still within you, for all time.
Hung, thickly In fond Memorys far stretched
Are vivid pictures, on her sacred walls,
Each one in your lifs-history, forms page;
Those are most precious, which are marked with
Which as Stamped their impress in your earliest
When your glad NE was crowned by spring-tide
And ali was future. to your hopeful soul
No past was written on your plastic roll
These pictures. tinted with gay meaning light
Are A 10 your loving heart so fresh, so bright,
They stir you with tender charm, mystic
power.
Your MONDAY pictures hold deeper tint
A glow of fuller, broader life imprint,
Still not, brought out so fully and complete,
As those which In the fan theSt gallery meet.
Yet, with quickened sense, within you sealed,
LIES pictures all, can clearly be revealed.
Your sunset pictures, near the entrance way,
Soft shaded with the hues of fading day,
0fmorn's, and noontides intermingne glow,
Have each deepened touch, a sweet halo
We pause. as we behold their sterling worth
Ali rich experience proudly gave them birth,
They show the frutage of iife's struggle here;
Those high wrought touches to your soul mos
dear,
| Portray ripened glory. grandly born
| OF what the spirit has so nobly worn.
And as you sail on life's full eyentide
Where choice perfected colorings gently glide,
| In softened waves, around your opening soul,
Then will the ripest pictures grace your scroll;
The finest imagery OF Heaven-born truth,
| Light up the page, of an immortal youth

A New Moving Machine.

A little more than year ago patents were
obtained by Mr.. George A. Hall of Deering
for certain improvements in moving ma
chimes. The invention seemed to promise so
important results that company was at
once formed for the purpose of acquiring
the patents and developing and manufacture
ing the machines. The moving machines
which have been in use for so many years
are all operated by means of crank or Pit
man rod. This gives virtually two stops in
dead centres to be overcome at each revolu-
ton. OF course that occasions very great
loss Of power. The Hall machine does away
with the Pitman rod, and uses instead Sc
ries of cams, thus securing perfect circular
movement. These cams are so arranged that
no two knives are at precisely the same an
gle, and sc there is no time when portion
of the knives are not cutting. The knives
themselves are so arranged that they cut
with shears motion. instead of a straight
back and forth movement lMschinists
claim that this method of applying power
will work saving of at least onethird in
the power necessary to carry machine. In
other words, that machine Of this pattern
would cut six foot swath as easily as a
Pitman rod machine would cut one of four
feet.
Tuesday afternoon the machine was test
ed in the field of Mr.. Henry Deering at
Woodfords. There were present Is or 20
gentlemen, stockholders, machinists and
farmers. That the machine is of very SIM
pie construction may be inferred by the re-
mark Of farmer upon first seeing it, us
that all there is to it?" The test was more
than satisfactory to the parties interested.
1t did its work perfectly, and apparently
with great ease. The driver, Mr.. Emil
Bracket, said that there was not the least
jar, and that 1t rode as easy as gig. That
it is grand machine no one can doubt and
it certainly seems probable that the cam
movement is destined to supersede the jar
ring, power wasting Pitman rod that for
want of something better has done service
for so many years.
Judge Cleaves is the president of the
Hall Moving Machine Company, and c. A.
Woodbury. is its treasurer; and among the
principal stockholders are Hon. c. j. Chap.
man, Hon. E. B. Mallett, Jr., W. Fl. Stevens,
Esq, and Mr.. Hail. the inventor. 1t is un-
derstood that the company intend to estab-
lish mandatory in this vicinity, notwith-
standing inducements have been offered
them to locate at a western point, which
quite likely will result in a second plant to
supply that part Of the country. 1t certain
ly is to be hoped that the enterprise, so far
as the eastern end of it is concerned, will be
carried out as planned, for it is good thing
and Portland should have the benefit of ii.

Rocky Mountain Forest Fires.

Those who are unfamiliar with the pine

have but little conception of the destruction
wrought by fire which passes through these
forests. The ground is covered to depth of
foot or more with the pitchy accumulations
of centuries of forest growth. Pine needles.
cones, dead branches and the resinous trunks
of fallen trees form a forest floor that catch
es fire like finder and burns like furnace.
A spark from campfire, pipe, or cigarette,
may ignite this forest floor, which may
shoulder for hours or days before bursting
into flame. This fame once started, the fire

There is an English literary man who at

JULY isT, 1890.
A Date Well Worthy of commemora-
ton.

There is an incident or event that renders
July /, 1890, worthy of being placed in the
list with July 4, 1776. April 9. 1865. and
other days made memorable by important
and startling occurrences. l refer to the
feet that the Treasurer of the United States.
for the first time in quarter of century. is
able in his monthly report to represent the
net debt of this country with nine figure,
$99S, 175,172 At the close of the war the debt
was over two and half billions of dollars.
The reduction since 1865 has been over
billion and half over sixty million dollars
year; over five million month; over SlIo.-
900 day; or about So per second. IL is GER
tainly something wonderful to contem plate
that in addition to the stupendous ordinary
and extraordinary expenditures of the
government during all these twenty-five
years, week days and Sundays, rain or shine,
In good times and bad, day aud night, with
out cessation, every second of time, at every
beat OF the pendulum, two dollars have
dropped off from the national debt. Surely

washburn G. ArIIneton's Circus.

The Waltham Tribune, speaking of Wash
burn q Arlington's circus, which appeared
in that city, and which will appear on the
grounds at Deering, Saturday, says:
ut was the best show that has ever ex-
hibited in this city for the price of admis-
sion: In the morning parade of the prin-
cipal streets was made, among the noticea-
BILE features of which was the steam calliope.
At the afternoon performance the spacious
tents were filled to repletion and in the eve.
ming the same order was the rule. Of the
show itself much might be said, and Messrs.
WashbDrn q Arlington have every reason to
feel proud Of the array of talent they have
procured. The circus part is beyond an.
proach; the lofty trapeze act of the Vernon
Brothers was something never witnessed be-
fore In this city. The Mendoza sisters are
also deserving of praise, while Lowell sur.
prised and delighted the audience by his
c0ntortions. Now comes the most import
ant feature of the show, the Wild West ex-
hibitlon given by Indians and cowboys. The
daring riding of these people was something
marvellous.
