A Fine Show of Chrysanthemums- Other
Notes of Interest.

The people of Deering have been en-
loving one of the finest flower shows
ever seen in Maine. AT Goddard's green
house there are in bloom about eight
thousand chrysanthemums, of every
variety of color. Especially noticeable
are some pure white ones. Mr.. Goddard
makes novel varieties of these flowers
speciality. Last yeas he had fifteen
thousand geraniums.
Mrs. Casilda Fl. Milliken of Stevens
Plains died very suddenly at the Maine
General Hospital Saturday morning.
She had gone there for surgical opera
ton and seemed to be doing well. She
was most estimable lady, and her
death causes great sadness.
One of the smartest men of his age in
Deering is Mr.. jeremiah Howe, who is
seen on the streets of Portland almost
every day. Mr.. Howe is 7Syears old,
but he looks not day over sixty. In
the summer his garden is the admiration
of all his neighbors. This year among
its products were IA pounds iof rhubarb,
17e quarts of raspberries, 81 quarts of
currants and "a hill of cucumbers.
Much sorrow is felt in Deering at the
approaching removal of Rev. Frederick
Houghton and wife, who are to move to
Putnam, Conn, the first of December.
For the last three years Mr.. Houghton
preached at Gardiner and Richmond,
and last winter at Skowhegan. He was
liked very much in those places. He
goes to Putnam to accept call from
large Universalist church. He has been
preaching there since November LIST.

Beware of This Counterfeit.

s'Would you think that to be made OF
lead?" said an electric car conductor
Saturday, exhibiting at the same time a
good-looking ten-cent piece. Although
a close examination reveles that the en-
craving was not SO distinct as that of
good coins, there was yet so little differ
ence that nine out of ten people would
be deceived. The coin was of the date
1874. Readers of the PRESS will do well
to be on their guard against any similar
coin that may be going the rounds.

Gospel Mission.

The first of the series of Gospel Tenn
perance meetings to be held at the Gospel
Mission, Sunday afternoons, took place
yesterday at 8 o'clock p. m. A very
large and interested audience was
present. The devotional services were
conducted by the Rev. S. f. Pearson,
after which Judge Hiram Knowlton, was
presented as the first speaker, who gave
a clear and concise address touching
upon different phases of the evils of
intemperance, and pointed out the
remedies that must be used by individ-
uals and communities, in order that they
may be delivered and saved from the
blighting effects. At the close of Mr..
Knowlton's address, Mrs. Nettie Blake
rendered vocal solo to the delight of
the audience. J. R. Libby, Esq, was
the next speaker. He said he was pleased
to be present upon this occasion, at the
opening meeting of the series, and urged
upon his hearers the necessity of all be-
ING interested in such work for the good
of the community at large. MI. Libby
related in a very touching manner many
personal incidents arising from the evils
of the Intoxicating cup that had come
within his personal knowledge, and these
he said made him opposed to the traffic
in strong drink under any circumstances.
1t is great evil said the speaker, and
never should be licensed, but ever pro
hibited. Mr.. Libbys speech was power
full appeal to those who were bound by
the power of appetite to look to higher
power for help and deliverance.

"A Young Maine Sampson.

Lemont M. Leavitt was born in June,
1886, in the old town of Turner. About
the first thing Lemont began to do after
he opened his eyes and uttered his
first cry was to grow. His strength in
creased daily, and when years old his
skill with the axe attracted much at
tention. He would chop more wood
then half Of the hired men could. and
his services were much sought by young
men in the neighborhood, who were
too lazy to do their own chores on the
farm.
Last summer the youthful giant ten
dered genuine surprise to his parents
and neighbors. A party Of men were
building wire fence near by. A pole
was run through the center of very
large coil of wire, and everything was in
readiness to unwind it, when it was
found that man expected to assist
could not get there. Master Leavitt
happened along, and, taking in the
situation, picked up one end of the pole
on his shoulder and marched off, keep
ing step with the man who held the
other end in his arms only by the great
est exertion, while the man behind hung
on to the wire while it was being un-
coiled. Thus for nearly half mile did
this 6-year-old Samson bear the burden
that would have made many full
developed man shrink.
Just think 1T, not 7 years old, yet
Master Leavitt tips the scales at los!
pounds in a light suit. He is active,
both physically and mentally, and the
Gazette is willing to back him as being
the handsomest and strongest boy OF
his age in Christendom.-Auburn Ga
