The first record book of the trustees of
Colby University, containing the actions
of that body from the beginning of
Waterville College to 1850 or there
abouts, has been missing for nearly 20
years. 1t hardly seems possible that it
is beyond recovery. The probability is
that it was borrowed by some one for
some special purpose and was not re-
turned to the secretary. 1t is exceeding

ONE NUISANCE LESS.
The Byron Street Soap Factory
Stink to be Abated.

The residents in the vicinity OF Lin
coins soap factory OH Byron street drew
a deep sigh OF relief this aftc rnoon when
Auctioaeer William H. Hall knocked this
obnoxious piece Of property down to the
highest bidder.
Forty years has this factory emitted the
most unfragrant oiors to the disgust and
uisconfort OF the people OF that section.
NOW there Is "A general thanksgiving.
The NEWS published several weeks ago
some facts relating TO this nuisance and
secured by so doing the appreciation OF
the whole community. IL said that the
soap factory must go and now IL has gone.
Where this unsightly, ill smelling struc-
ture now stands will soon be seen hand
some tenements built by Joseph A. La
tham, a well-known citizen who to-day
purchased the whole property for 5000.
The land has a frontage of 100 feet on
Byron street and extends nearly 90 feet
back. The area is II. 900 square feet.
Mr.. Lincoln. who has conducted the
soap factory. said to-day to NEWS
representative that he will shortly re-
move his plant IA little below" where it
is now located.

A MAN PROM THE WOODS.

No second glance was needed TO see that
be was from the country The very air
about him was rnstic and frei ixhtad with
rural fragments. Evidently. however ih
was not his first visit TO town toe he car
ried travelling valise OF the LATEST style
and his dress was OF an approved pa5reru
No better proof OF this could be Youch-
safed than the citation OF its aye aud aD-
pearance. His pants were cut short and
mis- coat funereal A large derby was
perched above his ears and Bis travelling
bag, well strapped about his shoulders,
was covered with assorted dust.
His shoes showed the effects of steady
toll, and his whole appearance JUSTIFIED
the opening sentence or these paragrIphs
The pangs OF hunger, gnawing aud can
tankerous, struck his rural tastes as he
emerged from the shadows of narrow
street. near one OF our half-dime restaur-
a~ts, and stepping timidly within the
yawning portals he ventured to order a
meal. The youag maid who procured his
order was not unprepossessing The un-
conscious grace that characterized her
sinuous movements was not lost upon
this simple child of the soil, and he gazed
At her In open-mouthed wonderment

could not be more airy or beautiful,
and he conJured his mind for some excuse
or expedient for showing his deep seated
yearhing. When his meal was finished
ne ala not rise mechanically-no country
man ever does-but he stood in all the
strength Of his hayseed manhood and.
marching 10 the counter, threw down his
check and 10 cents, purchased n "twofer''
cigar and stepped out into the crowded
street. The vision OF the restaurant
beauty followed him and recalled his
wandering fancies.
Rushing back into the restaurant he
inquired naively for the Young woman
who had waited on him and put into her
ftching palm five big copper cents-the
well blown fruits Of his generosity and
love.
Sinking then into the crowd once
again he quickly vanished and was lost
10 view. Ihe crowning proof OF his hab-
1tation had been unconsciously given.
No denizen of the city was ever known TO
tip the waiter girls
