PreScrving Dea,i Bodies,

Herodotus givesa remarkable descrip-
tion Of the manner in which the Eth
opians were accustomed to preserve
their dead. According to his account,
having dried the body, they plastercd
it over with gypsum and painted it SC
as to make it resemble life as nearly as
possible. Then they PIT in hollow
column made Of crystal, which ma
terial they dug up in abundance. Thu
inclosed, the corpse was kept in thl
house Of its nearest surviving relations
for wear. after which 1t was buried.

A k,untlerln~ Ilottle.

A bottle filed with whisky by New
York liquor dealer, and carried to sea
by New Yorker bound for Europe,
lately reached the liquor dealer again,
after many months and through a
strange channel. A friend Of the trav.
cler atiirms that the bottle, cmpticd OF
it's contents, was thrown overheard
while the ship was still far from shore,
but the liquor dealer is equally positive
that the bottle came back to him in q
case of rum imported from the West
Indies.

1t would be hopeless and u thankless
task to even attempt to raise the present
cyclists to pure amateur basis. l fear
they are imbued with the taint Of profes-
sionalism beyond redemption; they do not
want pure amateur basis; by their own
confession they would prefer money prizes,
and they are racing today solely for what
they can make out of it,
1t must be extremely mortifying to
American sportsmen-it is to me-not to
be able to point with pride to the fast rid
ing Of our racing cyclists as the work Oh
amateurs. How can one be proud of a
countryman, be his work ever so clever,
who is riding under false colors, which is
tantamount to saying he is leading dis
honest life? A man who is dishonest in
his sport would not trust in any walk oil
life. There are no degrees Of honesty
claim that some of the manufacturers
and some of our clubs are responsible for
the souls of many unsophisticated young
men whom they have led astray. have
no language strong enough to express my
contempt and the contempt of all fair
minded men for the officials of clubs who
will deliberately plan the pollution of in
nocent and ignorant lads for the sake Of
securing few more points than the rival

This question of legislation in amateur
sport is too lightly considered and intrust
ed too often to men not in touch with it,

in the more serious walks Of life. II {

"NTuchIYU Repudiated Tariffs.

The Republican tariff history is curl
osity. All its reasons of 1861 were re-
pudiated in 1883. All its reasons of 1883
were repudiated in 1890. 1t may be pos
sible that in 1900 it will admit that the
tariff is only the instrument of manu-
facturers who have money to pay for
legislation. We may have tariff cam
paign on that issue-that it is a fine
thing to have public spirited manufac-
turers who will pay literally for tariff
legislation. Certainly it would not be
at all more absurd than McKinley's
present position, though it would be a
little plainer.-Kansas City Times.

Look After the "F,rst Voters" i"

The great majority of the first voters
this year ought to be enrolled in the
Democratic party. 1t is the party most
in sympathy with them, their endesvors
and ambitions, and it is the medium
through which their best purposes in
politics can be carried out. They will
be 80 enrolled if systematic effort is
made to secure their support. This is
the especial task of Democratic clubs,
and the organization of such associations
ought to be vigorously prosecuted in all
parts of the state.-Albany Argus.

ACCIDENT ON THE RosToN.& MAINE.
The Sunday Morning Passenger and a
Freight Train in Collision.

The 9.15 a. m. passenger train from
Boston for Portland yesterday morning
was coming along att lively gait, and
when little the other side of Salem
struck the rear of a freight train. The
engine of the passenger train was demol-
ished, and several of the freight cars de-
rallied. No one was hurt, but the passen-
ger train was delayed an hour and half.
The third car derailed was filled with
carboys of sulphuric acid. These were
broken and the fumes of the acid might
have been good for the disinfection of
cholera patients but was not much en-
joyed by the passengers on the passenger
train. The freight, when struck, was on
the main track, and it looked as if the
cars had been derailed before the passen-
ger engine struck the train. A flag man,
it was said, had been sent back to flag
the track, but if so, he couldn't have got
far. Several prominent people of this
city were on the train. 1t was narrow
escape from a serious accident.

RAILROAD MEMS RELIEF.
A Largely Attended Meeting Held at
Columbia Hall Yesterday.

The second meeting held in the in
terest of the proposed railroad mems re-
lelief, at Columbia hall yesterday was
largely attended, and was very interest
ing.
Edgar E. Rounds presided, and spoke
of the Importance of the proposed
society. He asked Captain R. A. Will
liams, of the committee appointed to
draft a constitution and bylaws, to make
report.
Captain Williams said it could hardly
be called a report of the committee, but
must be viewed in the light of sugges-
tons. Only a part of those appointed to
represent the employees of the roads were
present at the committee meeting last
Sunday, but those who did attend looked
over the constitutions of the different
reliefs connected with the roads having
their own relief associations, and tried
to take the best features of them all.
He read the proposed constitution. 1t
is proposed to call the new society "The
Mutual Relief Association of Railroad
Employees" and it will take in all the
railroad men of the state, who are of
good moral character, able to pass re-
quired medical examination, and who are
under 90. The headquarters of the
society will be at Portland. 1t was sug-
gested that death benefits of $500 should
be the point to be aimed at. The adop-
ton of the graded system was suggested.
Joseph A. MCGOWAN, ESQ.,, of the
Grand Trunk, was asked to give his
views, and responded at length. He may
be said to have struck the key note of the
meeting. He suggested that an attempt
should be made to ascertain how general
ly the railroad men of the state were
ready to go into the new relief. A can
vass of the roads was the first thing to
be seen to.
A gentleman asked how this canvass
was to be made, and who would pay for
it.
Mr.. Rounds-It will have to be done
by volunteers for the good of all. The
roads Heading out of Portland can be
canvassed first and without much diff
Guilty.
Mr.. Lacelle endorsed the position
taken by Mr.. MCGOWAN. A canvass
should be made, but men must know
what they are being asked to join.
After futher discussion, the sugges-
ton for constitution was taken up |
section by section, and about half de-
bated and Informally adopted, when the
meeting adjourned for one week. A
gentleman present said that Major Shaw,
accepted as an authority on mutual
relief societies, believes that it will take
six months to get the proposed state re-
lief into operation.

CITY OF DEERlNG.
The City Lights.

A hitch has occurred in regard to the
contract for the electric lights in Deering,
and there is some prospect that this light
ing system may be discontinued. The
contract with the Warrens at Cumberland
Mills has beenlfor the furnishing of 2S
lights at 500 per year for each light. A
portion of the Deering city government
feel that unless more lights can be OBJ
tanned at less proportionate cost, it
would be better to discontinue the sys-
tenn There is considerable complaint
from those who dsive in the evening. es-
pecially those who drive over Forest
avenue, that the lights are not frequent
enough to be of any advantage, and that
in fact, they are positive disadvantage.
On the other hand there are large body
of citizens who are anxious that the cleo
trio lights shall be retained.
The Famous Green Pea Case of Ward vs.
Parker.
The famous case of Thomas J. Ward
VS.. James Parker was tried in the >muni-
cipal court in Deering Saturday afternoon.
Both parties to this suit reside in Deer
ing. Just before the Fourth of July
Ward sold to Parker, who keeps a gro
Gerry store at Woodfords, eight bushels of
peas, for whichshe claims 50 bushel.
Parker's agent bargained for the peas two
days before the fourth, as Parker sup
posed, at $1.25 per bushel, which was the
market price the day of the bargain. But
Ward claims that he sold them at the
rate of the market price on the Fourth,
which was 50 bushel. Parker has paid
$40 and the suit was to recover So more.
L. B. bennett, Esq, appeared for Ward
and W. H. Motley, ESQ.,. of Woodfords
for Parker. There was a tremendous
array of witnesses. For the prosecution
testimony was given by Mrs, Ward, D. B.
Soule and two hired men who worked for
Ward in pea time. For the defence were
Ansel Huston, Chas. O. Moses and others.
The testimony was animated and inter-
esting, and the law points involved were
many and complicated. Judge Elder
took some of these points under advise
ment before rendering his decision.
Personal.
Mr.. Alfred Cross of Lynn, Mass, with
Mrs. Cross, is visiting Mr.. and Mrs. Fred
Hooper at Woodfords.
