The Death of Rev. Samuel ,Longfel1ow
Leaves Living One Brother and Two
Sisters of the Poet-The Old Tomb in
the Western Cemetery.

The death of Rev. Samuel Longfellow
leaves but three of the brothers and sis
ters of the famous poet. They are Mr..
Alexander Longfellow of this city, for
many years connected with the United
States coast survey; Mrs. Mary Green
leaf of Cambridge. Mass, and Mrs. Ann
Longfellow Pierce, whose home is the
old Longfellow mansion, the quiet brick
house, which stands back from Congress
street, crowded in between the Preble
House on one side and the business
blocks on the other. Mr. Stephen Long
fellow, another brother of the poet, died
many years ago and is buried in the fam
lily tomb in the Western Cemetery. A
sister, Miss Ellen Longfellow, also died
many years ago in her youth.
Although the old colonial mansion on
the corner of Fore and Hancock streets
is pointed out to visitors as the birth
place of the poet, the brick house on
Congress street was the family home.
The house at the corner of Hancock and
Fore streets was owned by Captain
Stephenson, father of the late Stephen
Stephenson of Gorham. Captain Steph-
enson was going away for long voyage
and desired Stephen Longfellow, then
recently married to the daughter of Gen
eral Peleg Wadswortf, to occupy his
house during his absence. 1t was while
they were living there that the poet was
born. But the home OF Mr.. Stephen
Longfellow was the brick house, which
his wife's father had built in 1856. It is
said to have been the first brick house in
Portland, and at that time was consid-
cred quite far up town. 1t was I'M
doubtedly one of the finest of the old
mansions of Maine. Commodore Preble
had not then built his mansion, the pres
ent Preble House.
Mr.. Stephen Longfellow, the father of
the poet, died in this city in 1S49, and it
was about the time of this event that the
family tomb was built in the Western
Cemetery. 1t is one of the 10 tombs
along the western side, all of which
were built within the 20 years following
1910. There are tombs of the Hosach-
Kinsman, ,'5e; the Edward Ingraham,
So; the Nathan Dyer, 50; L. and G. E.
Sawyer, '53; Means Cummings, Lonfel-
low and Ten Brock families-all in one
line or block and similar in architecture.
This tomb is the resting place Of the
members of the family who have lived
and died in Portland, and Rev. Samuel
LongfeIlow win be buried here. The
poet is buried in Cambridge.

oxFoRD's SMILING FARMS.
They Have Sent Their Best to Grace the
County Show.

The forty-second annual exhibition of

Society opened for a three days meeting
at their grounds in Fryeburg yesterday
morning, under somewhat unfavorable
circumstances as to weather, but all the
other conditions for successful fair

A MATTER OF BUSINESS.

THE GLOBE has often howled for
guards at the dangerous railway cross
ings in this city. 1t has shown why
such guards were necessary, but it did
not know that one of its own family
would emphasize what it said.
The most dangerous crossing in this
city is that ON Main street where the
Lynchburg road crosses the public thor
oughfare. 1t is absolutely dangerous and
very much of bore. Trains stand on
the track longer than ten minutes at a
time-and a dozen teams will be stopped
while the sportive trsinmen are monkey
ing around with their affairs. There is
high bank on either side, one in a
buggy or wagon cannot see whether a
train is coming, and the fireman rings no
bell.
Yesterday young BLoUNT and MRS
FAIRBRoTHER drove into an engine or
almost into it, and the engineer says the
escape was most wonderful. The loco
motive slid up on the crossing without
sound there was no ringing Of bells,
there was nothing. The Yam Farm
horse, and good old fellow, turned the
buggy and pulled it upon the stone
pavement, which is about two feet high
This upset the buggy and threw the oc-
cupants out.
The escape was really miraculous.
THE GLOBE does not want to make
it personal, but it happens to come home
to it, and it candidly asks the city coun-
Gil to look at that crossing and demand
that proper guards be placed there.
Human life is in jeopardy; when such
condition exists it is time for munici
pality to protect its own.

aROUT SOME THINGS.

| The Old Man fell IN retrospective
mood last night-he looked back across
the years which passed him between
boyhosd and manhood; he saw the old
faces which he can never see again; he
lived once more his boYhood days-in
fancy, though, and not in that happiness
which was his when no care and no
thought of the future or of the present
disturbed him. He looked in a mirror
and saw the silver coming in his hair
he looked in the future and he wondered
what the end would be.
And then he thought of all the jeal-
ousy; of all the hypocracy; of all the
shams and all the deceits which people
the world and which rob happiness of
its joy and bring sorrow to so many
brOws
Why should all such business be? Why
should we not dwell together? Why
should not the charity which CHRIST
taught as the greatest virtue be fact in
stead of theory: Why should the
wobbly old world be so filed with pain
and with sorrow and with woe?
These things suggested themselves
they came in An army and the Old Man
to-day wonders more about it,
If it be true that beyond the grave we
live again-if it be true that beyond the
grave there is no hope and no life-no
matter.
The world in which we live is where
we should SOW our seeds of kindness it
is where we should discover unto our
selves the weaknesses which crowd about
us and which hold US in their grasp the
one besetting Sin, that of jelousy should
be strangled as one would choke viper
but yet it is not so.
When the world was new and before
the first star sang in heaven; before de-
ceit was born and when honesty was all
there was-the creator did not think that
man would so debase himself and so far
forget the golden rule which so long has
been laid down.
In an interview with an old man the
other day he said that he had lived too
long That he believed that he was a
christian as CHRIST taught christianity,
but he shook his silvered head and said,
have seen so much and have heard so
much-I fear that in Natures economy
she blundered in making heaven.
"There will be so many spare rooms
there" he said, 81 fear that / will get
lonesome. l dc not boast-but | know
that l have done right. | have never
taken a dollar which did not belong to
me-not as the Shylock sees it-but I
never loaned money and never received
interest. l never swOre an oath. I
never drank dram of intoxicating
liquor. I honored my father and my
mother. | never talked about by neigh
bors. l never abused my wife's nor a
friends confidence. have always been
poor and hope that may not be rich
have provided for my family-and be-
lieve in GOD"
And the old man who said the above,
took his cane in one hand and iourneyed
on. On to the beautiful and the real
on to that land where all is joy, and when
the coffin's lid is closed for him, the re.
cording Angel of Heaven will have his
room assigned. =.

The Trinity Land company who, it will
be remembered, bought the T. B. Lyon
land near Trinity college only a few
weeks ago, have already had the property
laid off and plated into nice streets and
lots, and are now ready to sell the lots to
any person desiring to build. 1t is the
intention of the company to build up a
nice community out there. Lots will be
sold reasonable, as it is not the purpose
of this company to try to make fortune
out of it. For prices, ETC., apply to J. B

Suffering Children

Our girl was beautiful baby, fair and plump
and healthy. But when she was two years
old, sores broke out behind her ears and
spread rapidly over her head and forehead
down to her eyes, and into her neck. We
consulted one Of the bestphysicians in Brook
lyn, but nothing did her any good. The doc
tors said it was caused by a scrofula humor
I'm the blood. Her head became

with this terrible humor. Being urged to try
Hoods Sarsaparilla We did so. We soon
noticed that she had more life and appetite
The medicine seemed to drive out more of
the humor for short time. but it soon began to
subside, the itching and burning ceased,
and in few months her head became entirely
clear of the sore. She is now perfectly well,
has no evidence Of the humor, and her skin Is
clear and healthy. She seems like an en-
tirey different child, in health and general
appearance, from what she was before taking
