The Condensed Milk Industry.

To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL: As very
many of Your readers assisted us iii the new
Maine industry tile condensng of milk. by
taking stock in oIlr company. we would say
that we are conlensIng at Newport 1000
cans of milk per day with very satisfactory
results. 1t is demonstrated that Maine, with
her Well-bre, and healthy cows, sweet feed
and pure water, cam not only match, hut can
out-do sections heretofore supplying this az
ticle to the world. The factory at Newport
is using all of its machinery. and the com
pany is taking measures by the sale OF an
other block of stock to the amount of S20,0 900
to fully equip their works, as il is now de
lnonstrated that amy quantity of milk can be
obtained. The product is finding ready sale
and the management is highly elated over
large orders they are obtaining from the
large renters, Boston and New York. Al
though the latter State is the home and
birthplace of this industry, it is apparent
that Maine will far outstrp that section in
placing before the public IA desirable article
of condensed milk, as it is a well established
fact that the dread disease tuberculosis, or
consumption in cows, has been stamped out
in Maine, and to-day our cattle are in per
feet health. Not SO in those demSrly rorll-
lated dairy sections and States where the
average of cows is thlrtN-fNe per square
mile (Maine having only tive) and fully one
third of these COWS are c"nsnmptive. While
it is a well established fact that the great
heat to which milk is subjected when being
condensed destroys the germs and hacih,
rendering them harmless. vet the fast.dious
public would rather have the sound article.
In other words, the consumer prefers pure,
healthy milk to cooked harill. and they can
get the former 10y huyng the product the
Aroostook Condensed Milk Company sells
under their btands and trade mark as fol-
lows "Pure Maine jersey "The Dirgo,,
''The Newport This company is making
IA speciality for infants and invalids called
"The Baby Brand 1t is made from select
ed milk from nearby lairieS, from milk the
analysis of which shows its adaptation to in
fantie life.
The Winthrop factory is nearly ready for
the machinery. These two industries will
distribute among the farmers of Maine near
ly 1000, 600 per annum. The Newport fac
tory will employ 1:5 people, and the daily
pay roll will be $1,000. At Winthrop we
shall employ 1S5 people and distribute for
labor and milk $1,000 per day. The farmers
at Newport who are supplying milk are
highly elated over the prospect. They say
they can see a glimmer of daylight for Maine
agriculture in this industry. Stock in the
company is being sold to the milk producers
at the old price of - per share, and outside
of them at So. We do not expect to pay
dividends this season, but regard the invest
ment as first class. 1t is evident that dairy
ing is the strong point for Maine farmers.

The Little Red SchooIhouse,

A recent article i'll the Journal concerning
the schoolhouse i'm district No. !, Montville,
i'll which We're assembled at one time five
persons who subsequently went to Congress,
has had wide circulation and elected much
comment. For example, the Boothbay Reg
lister says:
All honor to the little red schoohouse, say
We; and it is with commendable pride that
we can point to one in our own town, in
Dist. No. 12 While we cannot perhaps
claim 50 high political distinction as the one
at Montville, we have the high honor of
sending from ours native born boys of
whom twelve wore the sword and shoulder
straps in the late war, while others have
represented the town in our State legisa-
ture, served as sheriff of the county, select
men, assessors and collectors of the town,
sea captains and navigators by the score,
besides many contractors and builders and
skilled mechanics, and this too from one of
the smallest school districts in town. We
know that in the grand review, on that great
day when the books are opened and all men
pass for final judgment according to the
deeds done here in the body. that few will
be found who have lived more honorable
lives and have done more according to op-
portunity for the good of mankind than the
boys and girls who learned their first les
sons in the little old red schoolhouse in Dist.

CUT OFF FROM LIFE BY VOLCANO.
LONDON, July II. The ste mer CATER
thun. which has arrived at sydney. \. 5.
W., reports that when she touched at the
Island OF Timor there was rumor current
that the Island of Sangir, in the Malay
Archipelago, had been destroyed by Il
volcanic eruption, and that the whole pop
ulation. comprising L.. 900 souls. had per
ished.
Sangir, AN island of the Malay Archi-
pelago, was midway between Celebes and
Windanao, in lat. 3O2 2S' n, Ion. 125 A.
f. Its length was 30 miles and an average
breadth of 10 miles. The surface was
mountainous and the volcano by which it
was destroyed was in the centre. There
are some 80 islands in the group. All are
high, volcanic, and produce maize, rice,
sago, cocoa, sugar, tobacco and timber
They are inhabited by about 30. 600 Chris
tian Malays, who live in different king
doms subject to the Netherlands.
A native from the Talantse islands. who
landed at Selengen four weeks ago,
brought the story to the effect that sever
al other natives had Just returned from a
voyage near Sangir. They had intended
to land on the island but were prevented
by the sight of mountains belching forth
smoke and fire. They reported that the
''whole island was on fire" The water
along the coast was full, they said. OF
half burned wreckage, pieces of houses
and chared bodies. The whole population,
estimated at about twelve thousand,
seemed to have been swept into the sea
OF burned, as not a living soul was to be
seen. Streams of lava were still flowing
toward the shore, showing that the activ-
ity of the volcano had not abated.
The captain of the steamship atterthul
said she passed through miles of debris,
dissimilar from anything he had before
seen at sea. Poles and sides of huts
most of them charred and broken were
mingled with such utensils as the natives
of the Philippines use in cooking. Many
| unreco%nizable objects resembling ,llarreG
human trunks We're also seen. articles
of headdress in the wreckage We're identi-
fed by a sailor who had lived in the
Philippines as peculiar to the natives OF
Sengir and the nearby islands of the
Philippine group. The ship was passing
through the wreckage from 10 A. NJ, to
1.30 p. NJ. These reports are partially
credited here, although they are believed
| to have been exaggerated.

Tam O'Shanter Won.

BATH SHIP SHENANDOAH BEATEN BY
ONLY THREE HOURS.
New YORK, July 13.-A despatch to the
the American ships Tam O'Shanter and
Shenandoah, from New York to San Fran
cisco, was ended this morning, when the
Tam O'Shanter won, coming in three
hours ahead of the Shenandoah. Both
were III days in making the run, and
when the result became known there was
great excitement among shipping men.
Last fall the Shenandoah, 5. ID. Carlton
and two British ships raced from San
Francisco to Liverpool for 81 200 a side.
The Shenandoah won, and the S. ID. Carl
ton was second. When the Shenandoah
began to load in New York, and tile Carl
ton in Philadelphia for San Francisco,
Captain Amesbury Of the Carlton chal-
lenged Captain Murphy of the Shenandoah
to another trial of speed for the same
stakes. The Tam O Shanter was loading
at Baltimore, and Captain Peabody put up
s., 900 against the 81 900 each, put up by
the others that he would beat them into
San Francisco. In actual time Captain
Peabody wins SO tar as the Shenandoah is
concerned. by about three hours but old

Both ships carried all their canvas.
After rounding tho Horn, the Tam O Shan
ter and Shenandoah We're a week in com
pany, and during light winds the latter
would forge ahead but when it began to
blow the Tam O'Shanter would make up
lost ground The crews of both vessels
knew it was race, and took as much in
terest in the result as the captains In
talking about the race, Captain Peabody
said: In a light wind the Shenandoah
can run away from us. but with good
stiff breeze my ship can sail around her
The 5. d. Carlton did not sail until two
days after the Shenandoah and Tam
o Shanter, and may yet win the race.
4 RACE AROUND CAPE HORN.
New YORK, July Is. The American
ship Benjamin F. Packard, which left San
Francisco % days ago with the American
clipper A. 6. Ropes, which arrived yes
terday, came into port to-day just II
hours behind her rival. The captain of
the Benjamin F. Packard claims the credit
of the race, as he had not left San Fran
cisco until the evening Of the day of which
the Ropes left in the morning. He says
his ship came with full carge while the
other came in ballast.
