The Mile Track.

There were great many visitors at the
mile track Sunday. The camp of the
Italians is situated on the north of the
track. They have a bunk house, store,
dollhouse and refrigerator building, and
present picturesque appearance about
camp. The track is fast nearing compile
ton. Two crews are putting on the fin
ishing course at either turn, and will
practically finish this week. The mate
rial, owing to recent rains, is quite wet,
and it will take some time to dry out
suitable for rolling. Mr.. Griffin, who is
building this track merely from the fact
that he has no doubt it will prove the
fastest in the world (the money consid-
Grafton he is to receive barely paying his
expenses), is in correspondence with
western gentlemen in regard to its pur-
chase. The railroad company is endeav-
oring to secure an additional strip of
land, in order to put in two spur tracks,
one of 1000 and the other 1000 feet in
length. The track will be opened next
June, and undoubtedly the largest field
of horses ever assembled in New Eng
land will train here next season. 1t is
too bad that Portland cannot awake to
the fact that its control, worth thousands
of dollars each year to our citizens,
should remain here in Maine.

A Collision in the Harbor Sunday

The Mary W. Libby on the 6.15 trip
Sunday, had a collision with the
schooner Cumberland, which was lying
in the stream. When the Libby was
approaching the schooner, the tugboat
Joseph Samson, now used as ferry
boat struck the former stern and caused
the Libby to swing around and smash
her starboard bow into the stern of the
schooner. The steamers timbers were
slightly sprung by the collision, and
about three feet of the schooner's plank
ing was stove in four feet above the
water.
The engineer of the Libby, Mr.. Pratt
narrowly escaped broken leg by the
accident. He was sitting on the bench
in the engine room when the collision
occurred and was knocked into the ash
pan by the shock. The tracks of the two
ferry boats cross each other, but the
steamers have never collided before as
the Libby gets across first. The settle
ment of the damages has not as yet beer

to form hose company.

MES. The company, he said, was to con-
sist of u or more men.

ing of the cooperation of the city gov
eminent in furnishing the best appara-
tus obtainable and the fitting up and

Disappearance and Foul Play Suspected.

&GoRHAM, n. H., September 19.-The
body of little George Shupe, who strayed
away from his home here last Monday,
an account of which was given in the
PRESS, and for whom search has been
made, all the past week without
any substantial trace being discovered,
was found floating in the Androscoggin
river about two miles below here last
Saturday afternoon, proving the theory
of his having fallen into the river and
being drowned, to be the correct one.
The remains were brought here and
were taken Monday morning to Wells,
Maine, for burial beside his mother. 1t
is very sad case. and now following it
comes another, which may prove still
worse, as foul play is suspected. MI.
Eugene L. Osgood, ayoung man residing
here, had occasion to go to Berlin Falls,
Saturday, and left there with his team
about O'Clock p. m. to return home, be-
ing alone. Not arriving that night,
and fearing for his safety, searching par
ties went out Sunday morning. but up to
this time no trace of him or of his team
has been found. He is young man OF
excellent character and habits, has a
young wife and baby to whom he was
fondly attached, and no cause whatever
can be assigned for his leaving them. 1t
is feared that he has beeu made way
with in the darkness of the night, and
his team, which was good one, taken.
The search is being continued.

Maine Central Dividend.

At the last regular meeting of the
Maine Central board of directors, held al
Portland on the 18th of September, il
was voted to pay on the 1st of October a
quarterly dividend of $3.50 per share to
stockholders of record of the 18th OF
September. It was also voted that here
after all dividends on stock be paid quar-
terly on the first days of October, Janua-

Boston and Maine.

People well informed on Boston &
Maine say the decline Saturday was
caused by sales of stock held as collateral
by a certain Boston bank for State
street banking house, and not to any I'M
favorable developments i'll connection
with the property. The liquidation
which has been brought about by the
cholera scare has forced sales by weak
holders in stocks selling above par more
than in the low priced shares, and Boston
6 Maine has gone down for the same
reason as Lake Shore, New York Cen
trail and Lackawanna.
Boston & Maine people declare the re-
cent notice to delinquent stockholders
was not sent with the intention of giving
anybody preference or of extending the
| time for subscription. Under the law a
corporation is obliged to see that all its
stockholders receive notice of subscrip-
ton privileges. and as Boston & Names
treasurer had no proofs that all notices
had been received, he sent a registered
letter: to each delinquent. The unsub-
scribed stock amounts to only 1000
shares and cuts no figure in the total
| issue. 4fsgs, 53t
The Boston & Maine has large
amount of equipment under construc-
ton, and, including that ordered at the
last board meeting, will soon receive
about Is new passenger coaches, besides
equipment and freight cars. The COM
pany is making many improvements on
roadbed and has decided to double
track the Gloucester Branch. Although
these improvements will call for a large
outlay, the company has no present
necessity nor intention of issuing new
stock or bonds. 1t has about 81, $50, 900
cash in bank, and the earnings for the
current quarter will be the largest in the
history of the company. - q.

Mr.. Jas. BaIcam of Halifax, N. S.

mates have placed implicit confidence in
him. He has also won the respect of all
he has dealt with. and systematized the
working of the plant, that where seven
and nine sealers were employed, six
have performed the same amount OF
work, and everything has moved with
clock like regularity. Mr.. Jas. McCusker
has had the care of the Barker cutters
and it would be impossible to have the
corn cut cleaner and more satisfactorily
There have been179 000cans of sweet corn
ZOO of succotash and 10000 af beans
put up, and the most remarkable of all,
is that only thirty swell heads have been
found in the piles. Mr.. William Doherty
was the superintendent of the bath room
and to him largely belongs the credit for
the scarcity of spoiled cans. Mr.. Henry
Hunt raised from one acre and quarter
$106.S5 worth of corn. Mr.. Harry Mer-
rill had several acres that turned
him $40 per acre. The company con-
template increasing the capacity of the
plant to 100000 cans another season, as
they have assurances of what corn they

Superstition will cause human beings to
do many very absurd things. Perhaps one
of the most peculiar superstitions ever re
corded exists among the pearl fishers of
Borneo and the adjacent islands. When
engaged in opening shells in search of
pearls they take every ninth find, whether
it be large or small, and put it into bot
tie, which is kept tightly corked with a
dead mans finger The pearls thus kept
are known as seed pearls" or breeding
pearls" the natives of the island firmly
believing that they will reproduce their
kind. For every pearl put in the vial two
grains of rice are put in for the pearls to
feed" upon. Some whites in Borneo be-
lieve as firmly in the superstition as the
natives do. and almost every hut aloug the
coast has its dead finger" bottle with
from nine TO fifty seed pearls" and twice
their number of rice grains carefully and
evenly slowed away among them. Nearly
all the burial places along the coast have
been desecrated by pearl breeders" in
search of corks for their bottles
