clung to me, while and Indaba- -ximbi
put as bold front on the matter % we

the brutes with an unconcerned smile on
her monkey face. When the great apes
were quite near. she suddenly called out
aloud. Instantly they stopped their
hideous clamor as though at word of

them.

1t does not clearly appear why the
three towns interested in the Knox and
Lincoln, but holding almost the small

accept the apparently advantageous
offer made by Mr.. Wade's syndi-
cate. The Bath Times explains 1t
on the ground that the citizens Of these
towns we're labOring under the impress
sion that their vote was final, that yes
meant the road must be sold anyway, no
matter what securities were offered,
when OF course the fact is that this vote
only gave permission for sale which
the directors authorized to complete IL
they saw fit. The vote Of the towns
owning the road was necessary to re-
lease the mortgage, and now the corpo-
ration can proceed to transfer the prop
erty. That the three towns represent

stock refused to vote yes" will make
no difference In the general result be
cause their action will not prevent the
sale OF the road which almost every
clear headed business man in
Maine believes to be for the
best interests OF the towns concerned
and the State at large. II the new own

so. But no surprise would be expressed
II, instead Of this great corporation, we
should see Mr.. Russell Sage and his
