Notes..
Old Houses,

Mr.. Joseph Littlejohn has begun de-
molishing the old house on his lot corner
of Central and Island avenues, Peak S
Island, and on the site will erect fine
two-story house, containing eight rooms,
for his own residence. The original
house was very old when it was brought
to the island from Freeport, 50 years ago,
by Mr.. Littlejohn's wife's father, and
there is no doubt that it is the oldest
house on Peaks Island remaining as
originally built, without reconstruction.
The Peaks Island House is another
venerable structure, but it has had adj
ditions made. When it was last recon-
structed figures were found on beam,
giving the date of its original construc-
ton as 1896. Mr.. Littlejohn's was the
only house but one ever brought on to
the island, instead of being built there.
The other is the house near Greenwood
Garden, owned by Mr.. Charles Adams,
which was brought from the Cape. We
can hear of but one instance of house
being removed from the island, and it
was taken to the city across the ice
many years ago.

The Main Road to Deering.

In the past twenty years it has cost the
town of Deering over 100000 to keep in
repair the main road from Woodfords to
Deering's bridge. 1t might be better
said that money had been sunk in the
mud of the road along with the layer af-
ter layer of sand, crushedssrock, clam
shells, etc., and now the road is no bet
ter than it ever was. In fact, an old
resident says he thinks the road was bet
ter twenty years ago than it is now. He
also says that the town not only has
nothing to show for the $4,000, but he
believes it would have been 100000
richer today in real estate if during the
past twenty years this highway to the
city had been as good as it might have
been had the $4,000 been scientifically
expended. A great many people, to his
certain knowledge, have been detained
from leaving the city and erecting valua-
BILE houses in Deering, for no other rea-
son than the disgust inspired by the con-
Meeting river of mud, or the chaos of
holes and hummocks, to say nothing of
the dust, which of late years has been
prevented by sprinklers. That road has
no foundation worthy the name. 1t
would be of no use to pave it with gram
ite blocks as it is. They would be
thrown uneven by the frosts in the
spring. 1t may be said that future re-
pairs on the road will probably be con-
Quoted with more regard for the essen
tials of good road building. 1t would
have been vast saving of money, if
when the sewer was put in last year, a
foundation to the whole road had been
put in at the same time.

The Maine Central.

Maine Central advanced to 115 Mon
day. 1t has been nearly four months
since the annual meeting of the Maine
Central, when committee was appoint
ed to investigate the Upper Coos and the
Hereford leases. Despite the motion of
Mr.. Sinclair to have the Investigation
hurried, no report has been made to date.
1t is not known generally that the Port
land and Ogdensburg lease to the Maine
Central calls for one per cent more on
the Portland & Ogdensburg stock this
year. 1t was leased at one per cent on
the 81, 237, ,036 stock for three years, and
two per cent per annum afterwards.
The three years ended last August, hence
there is an additional charge this year of
$42,S70. The Portland &Ogdensburg stock
was but $244,964 less than that of the
Maine Central before the increase of the
latter, which is somewhat more now that
she increase has been made. This year
there is $9O0,0 more Maine Central
stock to receive dividends. While part
Of the added rental of the Portland &
Ogdensburg was charged last year, the
whole of it must be included in charges
for 1898. This increased rental and six
per cent on the increased Maine Central
stock together make $93,370. In 1891
S17,691 surplus was earned over the six
per cent dividends on the old stock. 1t
will be seen that the road has got to
make material gain in earnings this year.

They Found the Medicine.

Yesterday as Western Union linemen
were at work near the company's store
house on Commercial street, their atten-
ton was called to neighboring black
smith shop by the breaking of window
glass. They found that the only man at
work in the place had been taken sud-
denly i'll and, in falling, had broken the
glass. The man appeared to be dying
but was somewhat revived by rubbing
his limbs and body. He managed to say
that whiskey would help him and this
one of the linemen, why by the way, was
not acquainted in the neighborhood,
managed to find. The sick man was suf-
fering from an attack of heart disease to
which he said he was subject.

WatervilIe.

That the Waterville fire system is de-
fective has been shown by some of the
last fires. When an alarm Is sounded the
department does not know where to go,
and much valuable time is thus wasted.
The authorities say that this can be rem
edied by putting in the Gamewell alarm,
and they are striving by every possible
means to get an appropriation for this
purpose from the city government. In
fact such system is absolutely necessa-
", for due notice has been given that un-
less this has been put in within six
months the insurance rates all over the
city will be raised.

I'm eYon Yonson,' the Swedish lum-
herman from Yimtown, Nord Dakota,
Gus Heege, who by the way is one of the
authors of the piece, has evolved a
character that has never been seen be-
fore and that is in fact sui generis. Apart
from the literary merit of the play, in
addition to an intensely interesting
story and situations of wonderful force,
there is enough breezy bubbling humor
in it to set up dozen farce comedies in
business. Neither care nor money have

''The singing of Nine. Kathinka Paul

worthy of mnch praise. She sang duet
from the Flying Dutchman' with Mr..
Ludwig, and also two Norwegian songs,
'Aftenstemning' by Kjerulf and Sol
veig's Song by Grieg. She has flexible
voice and sings with taste.'
Speaking of Miss Stevens, Liszt, the

Hon. C. #. Libby's Address at the Board
of Trade Banquet

Hon. C. #. Libby's Address at the Board
of Trade Banquet.
Among the speakers at the banquet of
the State Board of Trade at Biddeford,
was the Hon. G. F. Libby. Concerning
his address the Biddeford Journal says: /:
President of the Senate, Charles f.
Libby of Portland was next called upon.
He paid tribute to York county as the
county of his birth. He thought that
Biddeford and Saco were good tillustra-
tions of what the developing of Maine's
resources might do. With such water
power as Maine possessed it needed no
prophet to see that Maine is destined to
become the leading manufacturing state
of the Union. He spoke of the wood
fibre business Of the state, which,
though yet in its infancy, had already
revolutionized the paper trade of the
world. The paper mill had now become
the adjunct of the pulp mill and shrewd
business me N had their eyes on Maine
and were eager to invest their capital in
the state. In years to come no state
would be able to compete with Maine in
the production of paper, whilei no man
could foresee to what extent wood pulp
might take the place of other material
for other purposes. The great trouble
had been that Maine men Of capital had
been too much inclined in the past to
give the cold shoulder to home enter
prises. They had been allured by vest
ern and southern schemes, but had
learned to their sorrow that high inter-
est involved high risks and that distant
enterprises were not SO safe as those at
home. He believed that the lesson that
had bee n learned by Maine capitalists in
the last few years would be wholesome
one. Citizens of Maine ought to be
proud of their state, he said, and ought
to realize that it was their duty to devel-
op the resources which God Almighty
had placed in their midst. No better
means to such ends could be obtained
than were furnished by boards of trade.
He referred to the western country and
eontrasted the boasted resources of the
West and South with the resources of
Maine as they might be if developed.
He closed with eloquet praise of Maine
as the best state in the Union to be born
in. to be educated in, to live in and final
ly to die and be buried in.
