Governor Hardin Was Touched

The late ex-Gov. Hardin of Missouri
did many things for his State during
his long and busy life, and he was es-
pecially proud of the college for women
which he founded and which bears his
name. But he felt that his work was
not appreciated and he showed his
sensitiveness on this point in touch
ing way when ,one commencement day,
lady stepped up to him and said:
"Gov. Hardin, l wish to thank you for
this splendid institution and to say
that my daughters owe to you a debt
they can never repay" The white
haired old Governor held the matron's
hand in silence for moment, while
tears came to his eyes as he answered.:
MADAM, you are the first person to
express such a sentiment to me-"

A woman's BreadmakIng Machine.

There has been organized in west
ern city a company of women, with
seven women directors, for the purpose
of controlling in all parts of the United
States a breadmaking machine which
can be operated almost entirely by
women. Loaves of bread perfectly
kneeded and shaped can be turned out
by this machine, into which the ingre-
dents for the bread are placed, almost
as rapidly as newspapers from one of
the improved presses and with less
complication of mechanism. Automat-
ic opening and closing slides lift the
loaves into the oven, and revolving
brushes clean the molds and pans
when not in use.

Two Hearts with a Single Pin

The brooch composed of two united
hearts outlined either in diamonds,
pearls or any precious stone, continues
to have a vogue, and suggests that,
after all, as a nation we are bit senti-
mental, and that we think of the two
hearts with but a single thought, writes
Mrs. Mallon in the Ladies' Home Jour
nal. Though the most that can be
said about this brooch is that they are
but two hearts with single pin, and
that this is given to breaking in a very
unpleasant way.

Mrs. Maud Howe Elliott has gene

From those apart,
Have loved fair women and have known great

Despite the rosy ties which bound you then,
You will look back to these tame quiet days
With dim, strange pain;
And happy in your dreaming think Of me
Half mournfClly,

A SAD ACCIDENT.
circumstances of the Death of the Late
George nj. Adams of Dcering.

The death of Mr.. George M. Adams, of
Ocean street, Deering, which was briefly
reported in the PRESS yesterday morn
ing, was very sad occurrence. Mr.. Ad-
ans was at work haying, and had only
two more loads to haul in on Monday af-
ternoon. The load next to the last was
unusually large, and Mr.. Adams attempt
ed to bind it with rope, which he at
tached to the front of the rack and
hauled back over the top of the load.
Mr.. Adams stood on the back edge of
the load, hauling on the rope, while his
men stood on the ground and pulled al
so. Suddenly the rope broke, and Mr..
Adams was precipitated headlong to the
ground. He struck on his head and
shoulders, receiving fatal injuries. APP
parently the spinal cord was broken or
injured, for, while his intellect was clear
to the last, his limbs and body were par
alyzed. He fingered along until yester-
day morning. He was able to talk with
his family, very nearly to the last. Mr..
Adams was 81 years old, and a promi-
nent citizen of Deering. He went out in
the First Maine Regiment in 1861, and
was member of Bosworth Post. He
leaves a widow and large family-six
boys and two girls. Messrs. Fred, Hen
ry and Silas Adams are his sons.

Hoit,s Portrait of Neal.

The portrait of Stephen Neal which
hangs in the public library reading room
was painted about go years ago by A. G..
Holt. New Hampshire artist of high
standing, who also painted a full-length
portrait of Daniel Webster that used to
be in one of the parlors in the Revere
House, Boston. Paran Stevens paid Holt
$1,000 for this portrait, which was con-
sidered the best ever taken of the great
statesman. Holt says that Webster was
exactly five feet and ten inches in height,
but he made the portrait six feet as it
was to be hung several feet above the
floor. The portrait of the old Quaker,
Stephen Neal, is considered to be much
superior as work of art to that of his
handsome brother, James Neal, in the
same room, which was painted by Parker,
a Boston artist Of considerable note in
his day. These brothers were uncles of
the late John Neal, the poet and novelist.

There will probably be between twenty five and thirty thousand Grand Army men in the line of march, but not one of them will keep step to fife and drum or military band with the elasticity of youth; and instead of flowing hair and rfuddy cheeks these soldiers of the re- public will be bald and gray. There will be sunken cheeks and hollow eyes, crutches and canes and many halting footsteps. presume that scores, and maybe hundreds, will drop out of line and fall by the wayside before they reach the reviewing stand. These men were never loiterers nor malingerers. They did not drop out of line when duty demanded their presence, but when they fall by the wayside, as they surely will in this last great review, there should be and there will be helping hands on every side to bear them to places of rest and comfort.
