Sarcastic Talk Of a Couple of Editors Across
the Water.
LONDON, June 9.-The Standard, referring
to the Minneapolis convention, says: "We
regret, but are not surprised, to hear that a
large element of the convention is so sus-
pected of venality that it is very generally
believed that the nomination will be de-
cided either by cash payment or by prom
ises of Offices"
The Times, commenting on the proceed
ings of the Minneapolis Convention, says:
"None but connoisseurs at the scene of
operations can fully appreciate the object
of the moves and counter moves made by
the rival managers There is every reason
to believe that the contest is being con-
unworthy of the champions engaged in the
struggle"

A woman had pair of twin sons so
closely alike in looks and voice that
often, when she was not paying particu-
lar attention, she herself was liable to
mistake one for the other.
One day, after the wins had been
playing several hours out of doors to-
gether, one of t':em-whose name might
have been JacDa-came into the house
and said:
Mother, I'm hungry; want piece
of pie" Without noticing which it was
she gave him the pie, which he imme-
diately took around the corner of the
house and ate; then returning, he said in
an aggrieved tone:
Mother, want a piece of pie.'
All went well until poor Esau came in
a few minutes afterward, only to dis
cover how both he and his mother had

And wondered if insanity was common to

He plunged into zootor1y and wandered
through phlebotomy,
And read for weeks on history from Adam

he lectured on theogony and dwelt upon cos
mogony,
And sounded deep the mystery attending
human fate.
He showed supreme anxiety for late and early
piety,
And spoke with great fell city of higher states
than this.
He lectured quite dramatically to show how
systematically
The force of electricity was conferred in a

But while with such intensity he spouted on

His wife with sweet derexity was cutting

And with such ingenuity she monkeyed his

Weak Strong

The marked benefit which people in run
down or weakened state of health derive
from Hoods Sarsaparilla, conclusively proves
the claim that this medicine snakes the weak
strong" 1t does not act like stmulant,
imparting fictitious strength from which there
must follow a reaction of greater weakness
than before, but in the most natural way
Hoods Sarsaparilla overcomes that tired feel
ing, creates an appetite, purifes the blood,
and, in short, gives great bodily, nerve,
mental and digestive strength.

A PHYSICIAN ARRESTED,
Charged With Selling Liquor without a
License.


DR.. W. A. Wright of Readfield was
brought to Portland yesterday by Deputy
United States Marshal Smith, on charge
of selling liquor without payment of the
special tax. He was arraigned before
United States Commissioner Rand yes
terday afternoon, pleaded not guilty, and
was released from custody on his own
recognizance.
DR.. Wright is the leading physician in
Read1eld. He formerly kept a. drug
store, and paid special tax on the sale
of liquor. When he began to practice
medicine, he desired to keep liquor for
use among his patients. He wrote to
Deputy Collector Stoddard, who told
him that the payment of a special tax
would not be necessary. DR.. Wright
claims that he has prescribed liquor to
his patients and then has sold it to them,
there being no agency in the town and
no other place where they could get it.
He says he has never sold it to be used
as beverage, and has not furnished it to
any one who did not, in his opinion, need
it. He is man highly respected in his
town and has the confidence of his fell
low citizens.
