BRIDGToN, February 10. - The dis
charge of one of the weavers in the Pom
dicherry mill, Tuesday afternoon, was
followed by the general going out of the
others to the number of % OF more.
Wednesday morning a placard on the
mill announced that such as would be
ready to work in the afternoon should
have their looms. A few only awaited
themselves of the privilege and the rest
are now shut out. This is a very unfor-

ers are natives, or almost lifelong resi-
dents of the town. The upper mill of
the company, and the Forest mill are
running as usual without trouble.

the same name.

OUR SCENERY.
The Maine Central is Preparing to Tell
the World of 1t.

The Maine Central is preparing its dis
play for the Worlds Fair, and is having
made some of the largest and finest pho
tographs ever seen in this part of the
country. The work is under charge of
General Ticket Agent Boothby, and some
time ago he sent representative of his
department in special train with Steb-
bins, the Boston railroad photographer,
into the White Mountains. The results
were seen at Mr.. Boothby's Office yester-
day. Each photograph is AZ inches long
by % wide, a size perfectly adequate to
express the magnificence of White Noun
tain scenery. Ten of these photographs
were TAKEN one each of the following
scenes: Dixville Notch; the Profile; the
Presidential Range from Fabyan's; Craw-
ford Notch from summit of Mt. Willard;
Silver Cascade on Mt. Webster; View up
the Crawford Notch; Mt. Washington
from Intervale and Hiram Falls. These
will be elegantly framed and will make
splendid display. The title of each pic
ture will be on the mat, which will also
be inscribed "Maine Central Railroad
White Mountain Park Series" on the
right of the title, while on the left a brief
but comprehensive description of each
view will be given.
The Maine Central feel that they have
the greatest line in the country for
scenery, and propose to let the world
know about it.
Besides the pictures, the passenger de-
partment is getting out several publica-
tons advertising the beauties and advan-
tages of their line. y Two books, one de-
voted to Maine and the other to the
White Mountains, are already in prepare
ton.

Retired From Business.

Capt. Benjamin w. Jones, on Novem-
Der -, 1915, leased a store Of the father
of Hon. VIM. W. Thomas, on the corner
of Pearl and Fore streets, where Lappin's
grain store now stands. Here he re-
manned until Commercial street was built
when he leased two barns that had been
built and used by Davis, Twitchell &
Chapman and another firm, and turned
these into store. Here he remained in
business several years when he took a
store on Commercial street little further
east of the one he has occupied since
1877 at the corner of Custom House
street and Commercial. When Capt.
Jones went into business only one man
was among his fellow merchants who to-
day remains in business on Commercial
street, Mr.. Eleazor G.. Shaw, of Shaw,
Son & Lothrop. The other day Capt.
Jones brought in the original lease of the
store on Pearl and Fore streets and show
ed it to Mr.. Thomas.
Capt. Jones will now retire from active
business on the street and devote him
self to the duties of Port Warden, an
office he fills admirably, and the care of
the property of the late Charles P. Ingra-
ham on Commercial wharf and his island
property. He is still alert and active,
knows every inch of Casco Bay, and a
sail down among the islands with Captain
Ben in the Clarence is one of the enjoy
ments of the summer season. Messrs.
West & Wheeler are Capt. Jones's sue
cessors in the fruit business
