While driving along the road he met two

HERE'S A HCW-D'YE-DO.
An Injunction Issued Against the City's
Use of the New Police Signal System.

1t will be remembered that when the
city voted some $4,000, more or less, Tor
the new police signal system, the ques-
ton then arose whether eventually the
city might be restrained from using it,
1t was also announced that the city took
precaution when it voted the money to
require bonds in order that it might be
held harmless in case of trouble. The
signal system is about completed and
part gone into use.
Yesterday in the U. S. Circuit Court,
in this city, Judge Webb, at the request
of the Municipal Signal Company of
Boston, issued an order restraining the
City of Portland from using the new
police system, just put in by the Game
well Company. The order is returnable
before Judge Colt in Boston, November
Sd, when final hearing will be had.
The old system has been taken out and
the new one cannot be used. Here's a
pretty how'd ye-do!

quently day and night, and if its stom-
ach is empty for any prolonged period
it cries long and loud. Digestion re-
quires no interval Of rest, and If the
amount of food during the twenty-four
hours is in quantity and quality not be-
yond the physiological limit, it makes no
hurtful difference to the stomach how
few or how short are the intervals be-
tween eating; but it does make vast
difference in the weak and emaciated
ones welfare to have modicum OF food
in the stomach during the time OF sleep,
that instead of being consumed by bod
lily action it may during the interval i'm
prove the lowered system.
Should the weakly, the emaciated and
the sleepless nightly take light lunch

fore going to bed, nine in ten of them
would be thereby lifted into a better
standard of health. New York Ledger.

AT THE BOARD OF TRADE.
Exhibition of the Goods Manufactured
From Flax Waste.

The exhibition of goods, manufactured
from what has usually been considered
the worthless flax waste, at the Board OF
Trade rooms, is very interesting. Be
ginning with the waste that has always
been considered useless the different
changes in those materials are shown up
to the manufactured blankets, towels,
cloth for clothing, etc. 1t is very IN
teresting exhibit and is to be shown at
the request of Gov. Mckinley at the
Worlds Fair. The product that resem-
bles absorbent cotton, made by this pro-
cess, it is claimed, will be great sub
stitute for this cotton now used by sur
geons, of which million pounds are
consumed daily in this country and the
price of this new product will be only
about half as great The company has
an order for million pounds of this
cotton from one firm.
The first towel ever made in this coun-
try is shown and it is of excellent style
and quality. Towels are not manufac-
tured in this country and $50, 0OO,O 900 an
ually goes abroad from this country to
pay for the towels we import. Admir-
able Undertaking is shown that rivals
the best foreign make. Cloth for ulsters,
warm and waterproof, can be seen. This
fax waste material will be used also for
carpets, and make all carpets about half
the present cost.
1t is the intention of the owners of
this patent, it is understood, to establish
their plant in Maine, because here the
water is pure, and pure water is the first
requisite in the manufacture of goods
from the new process. The water at the
West is too much impregnated with
lime to make it possible to establish the
factories there. The cultivation of the
flax for the factories, it is claimed, will
bring into use every abandoned farm in
New England and make the new facto-
ries the greatest industry Maine has ever
seen or enjoyed
A company has been formed under
Maine laws and limited amount Of the
stock is in the hands of Mr.. A. 81. Coe

Horse Killed in a Collision.

Yesterday afternoon about 6 o'clock
the horses attached to one of FL. S.
Melcher & Co.'s jiggers started from the
counting room ON Commercial street
and ran up Pearl street. Just as they
were crossing Cumberland street horse
and wagon-a coal team-belonging to
Herbert R. Sargent, attempted to cross
the street, and the Melcher team ran in
to the team. The pole of the Melcher
iigger pierced the breast of the Sar-
gent horse. The shock of the collision
threw the horses attached to the jigger
to the ground. Mr.. Sargent had to have
his horse killed.
