A SURPLUS OF DIRECTORS.

Too Many Persons Looking After the Fdu-
cstional Interests of stowe Township
and the Pot Threatens to Boil-The
Cause of the Difficulty.
There is surplus of school directors in
Stowe township, ieight instead of six, and
owing to the temper of some people inter.
ested it is feared there may be friction.
One end of the township elected lawyer,
W. A. Sipe, and consequently have point
in their favor, but still, if they propose
to unload two directors there may be some
fun, as it seems somewhat doubtful whether
the elected ones will be willing to abide by
the result of q shake by the dice-bo& The
interest was very great on the day of elec-
tion, not so much perhaps. among the peo-
pie at large as among the candidates, which
were unusually numerous Mr. B. F.
Crimes who spent some time at the voting
place near Bryan's tavern, stated that while
there was good sized crowd present, he
was, so far as he could learn, the only one
who was not a candidate for something.
The school-director complication was
brought about by the McKee's Rocks peo-
pie, who, though they are soon to be erected
into borough, decided to take a hand in
educational management anyhow. Conse-
quently, while the upper end of the town.
ship elected the full number, the Rocks
people also elected two, and chose them
from the territory outside the line. so that
they cannot exercise jurisdiction within the
limits occupied by those who elected them.
In short time they will be called on to
elect directors for the new borough, and the
surplus in the rest Of the township must be
disposed of in some way, unless some vol

NO SAINT, BUT A GAME MAN.
How Wallace Howard Got the Name of Be-
ing Exceedingly Nervx.

ing Exceedingly Merry.
BANGOR, ME-, Feb. 23-[ Special. wal
lace Howard, of Monson, Piscataquis coun-
ty, is accounted one of the nerviest men in
thosepar since he faced what seemed to
be certain death one day last week in order
to save the life of friend. Howard and
his chum, Henry Grover, were at Green
wood pond fishing for pickerel when big
snow storm came on, and they decided to go
home while they had chance, following
the Canadian Pacific track to Onaway sta
tion, where they could get train to Green
vile and thence to Monson. They were
half way across Greenwood trestle, which is
500 feet long and very high, when they were
surprised by westbound train. They had
remarked that it would be bad job to get
caught on that trestle, and in coming along
had noticed place where, in such an emer-
gency, they could crawl out upon some pro-
iecting timbers and be safe from the train.
They started for the place, but when Gro
yer had gone few steps he fell and had his
leg broken. He implored his companion to
leave him to his fate and save his own life,
but the backwoods Yankee was made of bet
ter stuff, and lifting his companion upon his
shoulders he stumbled along over the slip
perry ties toward the one chance of safety,
with death laundering behind them. He
reached the projecting timbers and stepped
out upon them just as the locomotive, throw
ing binding shower of snow before it,
thundered past. Leaving his companion
ON the trestle, Howard ran all the way to
Onaway and procured help, and the in
jured man was taken to Henderson, where
he was attended by the railroad surgeon. 1t
is said in Monson that Wallace Howard

Not at all There is always much money
in wsr-blood money, to be sure-and costly
methods will always have staunch pro-
moters and defenders Then, most hen
really invite the hammering of new ideas
into their heads with club.
Why, the writer saw in March, 1865,
Pittsburg coal selling for engine use on the
.landing' at Rouseville, Pa, at 81 % per
shrunken bushel, while within gunshot
were shrieking, writhing, deafening gas
wells, hurling tens of millions of feet of
finest fuel into the over-burdened air daily.
Was this not also strange?
Sixteen years, yes, 20 years, later there
were hundreds of millions of feet of gas
wasted. Was this not stranger still?
Then into the gray matter of some brain
the idea penetrated that such fuel might
have a commercial use and commercial
value. All, yes, Our sres and grandsires
used Schwartz's preparation of charcoal and
saltpeter for throwing metal ofinstead fling
ing spears and speeding arrows, why should
not we?
But change is written on the face of
everything and war can claim no ex-
emption' n.

Romantic Re-Marriaxe of q Couple Who
Agreed to Disagree.
BRIDGEPORT, Feb. 29-[Special. Emma
Hornblower and William Gale lived on the
banks of the Thames, England, 30 years ago,
and fell madly in love with each other.
A marriage resulted, and everything
went along smoothly for year,
when each discovered that the
union had been too hasty, and that
the love they once felt had burned out
They quietly separated and agreed that
each should act as they thought best and as
though they had never been married.
Gale came to New York, where he mar
ried and soon established himself as build
er and contractor. His wealth grew, and at
present he is said to be in very comfortable
circumstances. His former wife also emf
grated and also married. Pneumonia re-
Gently claimed Emma's husband, and Gales
wife also succumbed to the same malady.
On Tuesday morning of last week fate
directed that both should take the same
train for Boston. They met and began
comparing their lives since they parted on
the banks of the Thames. The, old love was
revived, and before the train had reached
Stamford they had pledged their troth
again, and determined that they would get
off the train at the next stopping place, pro-
cure license, and seek clergyman.
The next station was this city, and the
two sought Town Clerk Watson, got the
necessary legal permit, and were directed to
the Rev. J. U. Emery, who made them one.
Bride and groom are of the same age, 81
years, and both are very good looking. They
resumed their journey to Boston, and the

ANOTHER CHILEAN SCANDAL
1t Involves Consul McCreery, Against Whom
Charges Are Made.

Charges Are Made.
NEW YORK, Feb. pa special to the
Herald from Valparaiso says:
A new scandal, duplicating United States
Consul McCreery, has cropped out. The
story is the sensation of the hour. Docu-
ments in the case have just been made pub
hc.- They relate to alleged transactions in
exchange by Mr.. McCreery. 1t is asserted
that the bills show there was bought and
sold by him in December. 1890, and in Janrl-
airy and February, 1891, over 81 900, 900. For
the last three months, it is further alleged,
he has been extensively engaged in ex-
change transactions. This was especially
the case during the time of the Baltimore
formation which he gained from official
sources in his dealings.
This data, which has so astonished the
business community, leaked out through q
letter which was sent to Broker Meklemann
by Mr.. McCreery, and in which the Consul
paid certain sum of money which he
claimed was due him. It is rumored that
Lieutenant Harlow, the Worlds Fair Com
missioner. is seriously mixed up in this scan
dal, and that he entered into sort of part
nership with Mr.. McCreery in his late pur-
chases of bills. All the documents in the af-
fair are now en- route to New York. Lieu
tenant Harlow's letters to certain New York
newspapers, in view of the present circum-
stances, seem to Chilean minds to furnish
good reasons for the spread OF startling ru-
mors in the United States, namely, for the
purpose of mutually profiting those engaged
in the affair A rumor is prevalent that
prominent Chileans are considering the ad-
visibility of asking their Government to re-
turn Consul McCreery's exequatur.

MEAN ADVANTAGE TAKEN

OF the Starving Peasantry of Russia by the
Authorities-They Must Surrender on
Points Of Previous Disputes or Get No
Relief Provisions.
ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 23.-Strong COM
plants continue to be made of the action of
the administrative authorities in dealing
with the famine. It is asserted that at sew
eral places the committees charged with the
distribution of food take advantage of the
utterly helpless condition of the peasants to
compel them to give way in matters con-
cerning which they have formerly been in
conflict with the authorities. With this
object the poor people are refused all help
until a promise has been obtained from
them that they will pay in future the
money for the land purchases in regard to
which they denied their ability, and, de-
prived of all resources, the peasants see no
other course open to them than to under
take to make these payments in order to
secure share in the corn and flour dis
tributed by the relief committees.
The Westnik Eropy, one of the leading
reviews, denounces in indignant terms this
abuse of authority, and mentions that,
among other places, it has been practiced in
q village where the prevailing distress is
aggravated by the fact that the inhabitants
have not yet been able to repair the damage
caused by great fire last year, when most
of the cottages, stables and granaries in the
place were destroyed. u
The same review points out that owing to
their ignorance of the existing state of
things, and their inertness, dilatoriness and
bad management in connection with the
supply of food to the famine-stricken prov
inces, the authorities have caused enormous
losses to the public treasury this year, and
had the grain been dispatched before the
closing Of the navigation on the rivers and
canals
