What the Journal said last week of the
foreign vote in the Presidential cleo
ton has found ample confirmation. En-
Senator Edmunds, in an interview, says
that if only citizens who call themselves
Americans had voted, Harrison would
have been elected. The New York World
publishes the following: Congressman
Boutelle, OF Maine says President Harri-
son defeat was due to the American voters
of foreign birth. He says that in the great
est cities the population is largely made
up of foreigners, who ''voted against the
government just as they would at home,
regardless of the different conditions pre-
vaiing in this country"

Mr.. r. B. Mathews, who has had charge of
the Second Congregational Church at South
Brewer, for some time, will sever his connec-
ton there about the first of January, and
will preach his last sermon there on the first
Sunday of that month. He, with his mother
Mrs. Nathan Mathews, will move to Bangor
again about the first of December. Mr.
Mathews has met with much success in his
labors at South Brewer, and the people will
be sorry to lose him. He graduates from

The New York Herald thinks President
Harrison will miss great opportunity if
he does not come out in his next message
for free trade. The Herald is right 1t
would be great opportunity for self
qualification, abandonment of principle,

safe to say, however, that President Har-
rison will miss it.

The excitement about burglars had nearly
died out, when one day a worthy Belfast
lady came home to find that during an ab-
sence of a few hours her home had been en-
tered and considerable disorder created in
the dining room and kitchen. a thorough
search showed that the intruders had enter
ed through a stable door and coming up in
to the house had left their tracks in the
kitchen, pantry and dining room. Consid-
cradle food had been eaten. but nothing of
value taken. The lady Of the house was
naturally much alarmed. and at once Motif
ed the neighbors At one house the small
boy of the family, after hearing the story,
exclaimed: "Oh, Aunt Sarah. it wasn't any
horrid old burglars, at all. We done il.
The story was then brought out that Il small
boy, six years Of age, had secured the KEY
and taking three companions. younger than

Short Stories.

A very simple omission by one OF cur Bel
fast ladies caused considerable commotion
in the household one day (or rather one
night last week. All the family We're going
out for the evening and the lady of the
house carefully locking the only door lead
ing from the main house to the ell left the
key in the door, and passed out the front
door, which fastens with aspring-lock. After
the living whist rehearsal the young ladies
and their escort returned but We're unable to
get in, neither having key. All the Win
dows below We're found to be fastened. At
last they aroused the girl and got into the
kitchen, where a council of war was held
One of the young ladies went into the hired
girls room and out upon veranda, only to
find all the other windows leading thereto
securely fastened. Then it was decided to
wait for mamma. When this lady arrived
it was found that she had left the key inside
the house, and the only way to get in was
for the young man to get ladder from the
barn and climb in at second story window.
After much lifting and hard work the ladder
was got out and placed against the front of
the house, but it was so long it rested against
the finish, and was several feet away from
the window. The young man, though not a
practical sailor, at last managed to get upon
the window sill, but his efforts to raise the
window We're not at first successful. AS
perseverance is one Of his traits he got there
after awhile, and finally admitted the fam
lily to their home. Will says if his business
was little different he'd get a burglar
kit and be prepared for such emergencies in

Business Profits.

care Business Profits too Large is
the caption OF All interesting paper in the
November Popular Science Monthly. The
writer answers the question in the neg

Stewart, whose profits are shown to have
not averaged over five per cent. 1t is said,
in conclusion sThere are some lines of
business in which the profit is at times
more than five per cent, but in the long
run the average cannot amount to that.
Competition increases from year to year,
and profits tend downward all the time
consequently, it takes more talent and
energy to make fortunes now than it did

One of Belfasts' leading physicians had
his faith in the effect of the mind on the
body strengthened in very unexpected
way last week. As he was getting into bed
one night, the light being out he noticed Il
draft from a window which was down at
the top. Taking hold Of the sash he careful
ly pushed it up and Went to bed, sleeping
soundly and comfortably all night. When
daylight came the doctor found that instead
of closing the upper sash, which was down
about eight inches. he had raised the lower
sash over two feet and the window had been
wide open all night. 1t was too late to take
cold then, and without even taking dose
of Daltons Sarsaparilla the doctor went
about his business. We'll as if he hadn't
