sands few years ago. 1t is reported +,
moreover, that King Oscar himself is
contemplating visiting the fair. and
that, in the event of his coming, he may
be invited to preside over a literary or
scientific congress, which would be a
graceful recognition Of his high charac-
ter and attachments. 1t is to be hoped
that the monarch will come and that the
Swedish and Norwegian Exhibits will be
worthy Of their respective countries.
There are many Scandinavians in the
United States, of whom the prosperous
New Sweden colony in AroostOok are
good examples, and they make excellent
citizens. They are intelligent, industIi-
Gus and law abiding. and the better they
are known the better they are liked.
They form an especially desirable class
Of immigrants for the reason that they

them for whom we have no room, and
consequently we should not have cause

US in largely increased numbers.

Regarding the public sentiment in
Bangor on the question OF a lease Of the
Bangor and piscatapuis Railroad to the
Bangor and Aroostook Railroad Com
psny, which is the topic II uppermost
conversation among all classes of citi-
zens. the Wing of Thursday morning
says: The general sentiment OF the
people is that the city will receive great
or benefits by making its road part OF
direct line Ia Aroostook, than would
be likely to result from any other dis
position of the road, even though II
should receive the foil bonded indebted
ness. The unanimity OF sentiment
among the business men in support of
this proposition, is something remark
able. Wednesday the Wing reporter
saw the representatives of fifteen houses,
aud every one expressed themselves in
favor of the project, One merchant
heretofore reported AS undecided, said
his position had not been correctly
stated as he favored the lease and should
vote for It. The result thus far obtained

chants seen u; in favor of the lease,

also told that the sentiment among the
workingmen is equally pronounced, as

columns have called attention to some
OF the leading contributions to this ex-
hibit. but they at best have given but an
Inadequate idea of the extent and real
| value OF the collection. II may be
studied for half day by the lover Of
history, art and antiquities with fresh
interest as each well filled case is looked
at The old family heirlooms are mar
wells OF interest-the silver china, bronzes
and lacquer work being priceless.
There are old portraits, maps,
autographs and documents that
the State Historical Society would
regard as prizes The deem or
more typographical antiquities, the old
bibles, law reports, Elzevirs and Aldus'
Of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries
would make the reputation Of any public
library in the State. There are letters
Of Tennyson, Ruskin, Sir John Lubbock,
and autographs of many noted names.
The collections from Kennebec valley
towns representing the aboriginus of the
stone age are wonderful in their
antiquity and significant history
and of these there are several well filled
cases. Coins fill two or three cases.
There are japanese, Turkish and
Chinese embroideries wonderful for
their minGteness of detail and
artistic designs. Shells, insects and
minerals possess great inter
est for many; and the mar.elous beauty
of the specimens OF marine alg;r only
excite curiosity and wonder. The col
lection is creditable to the enthusiastic
workers in the society who have been
Instrumental in arranging it;
those who have contributed to its
| completeness and interest deserve
hearty thanks, while it is to be hoped
the exhibition may result in a new
interest in the objects OF the socIs y and
large increase in its membership So
far 1t has been patronized by our best
people and those who have not done so
should not fail TO visit it today or tomor-
row.

CANE PLACE INN, L. l. Aug. An uu-
expected diversion in the ordinary routine
Of life at this hotel was created by the
arrival of Miss Clara Tuthill Thursday
evening. She is a young and pretty bru-
nette OF about 20 years. She came from
Bridgeport, Conn, just across the sound 4,
for the express purpose of taking a walk
with John L. Sullivan, to enjoy the novelty
of being able to say that she is the only
woman who had ever covered ten miles with
the champion at a training gait. Dur
ing the evening she lhad an interview with
Trainer Casey, who promised to secure
sweater for her, and she retired to rest de-
lighted with the morrow's prospect. On
Friday morning she was up with the sun.
She robed herself in one of John l.. sweat
ers, the Sunday shoes Of Katy, the cook. an
old skirt loaned her by the housekeeper, aud
Billy Morgan loaned her an old felt hat.
Thus arrayed she stepped out into the dusty
road, taking up the rear OF single file OF
men composed OF Sullivan and Casey. Her
appearance was greeted by round Of
cheers from a crowd of guests assembled on
the porch.
Miss Tuthill kept up GOO gait until she
had covered a mile; then the pace began to
tell upon her She dropped back few hun
dred feet. but animated by an indomitable
resolution she ran up through the grass I'M
til she came up with 'the big fellow" and
grasping his brawny arm, gasped out: go.
Mr.. Sullivan, was going to give it up. but
| would not let the guests at the hotel know
that weakened" She frightened up after
that and managed by great exertion to keep
pace with the champion. She kept pluckily
at work until their journey was ended.
There she had brief rest in her hammock.
The perspiration was running from the end
of her pretty nose and the sweater was
doing excellent absorption.
She started back again full OF pluck, but
soon after leaving the light house the black
clouds began to roll up from the west a few
courier drops began to fall, then came the
| regiments Of rain marched at quickstep
over the meadows. Miss Tathill STUCK
pluckily to her task, and in few minutes
was wet to the skip. The rain beat in her
| face, but she lifted her skirts from the grass
and hurried through the rain and arrived
at the inn in a disheveled condition. But
half an hour later she appeared on the ve-
randa clipper as a lark and delighted with
her experience.
