be of service origin. but to be pensionable at
all disability must incapacitate the person
from manual labor 80 as to render him un-
able to earn support. The board of revision
was constituted of the ablest and most ex-

these cases and Gull out such as have no
legal basis to rest upon. This board, includ-

Trouble With a sword.

A Lewiston young man VINO was In
Portland Saturday night found some
antique Turkish swords in a window
ON Congress street, and having a love
for art bought n for ornamental
purposes and asked that the clerk do it
up in paper. Before he had gone half a
block the paper came off. The young
mar was waiting for the Boston boat to
start. He carried the sword about the
streets till people began to comment
upon it. Then he hid it under his ulster
and was standing on the corner talking
when it slipped down, striking on his toe
with the sharp point. He picked it up
again and hid it under his coat.
When he got into the theater, he was
about TO be seated when he thought OF
the sword under his coat. He could not
sit down until that sword came out, SC
unbuttoning the coat he held the sword
in his lap all the evening. At midnight
when he went on board the boat one OF

Bacteria In Tobacco.

There seems to be no end to the dis
coveries that await Us concerning bac-
terra, and the relations of those micro
scopic organisms to the well being OF
man. Who would ever have thought
that the peculiar flavors which charac-
terize different kinds or brands of tobac-
co are due to the presence of bacteria?
Yet that is the conclusion to which in
vestigaticns by a German botanist lead.
In curing tobacco, or preparing the
raw, green leaf for use. a Preventative
process called sweating is gone through
with.
1t has been supposed that the chemical
changes induced by this process We're the
source of the peculiar qualities possessed
by the cured tobacco. But, according to
SGchsland's experiments, it appears that
heterogeneous may be the real cause
of the changes.
He has examined tobacco from all
parts of the world which had been cured
and has found in it an abundance of mi
cro-organisms, and upon ~cultivating the
bacteria from a particular kind of tobac-
co and then inoculating another kind
with this culture he has produced in il
the taste and aroma of the original.
This discovery has led to the sugges-
ton that the quality Of tobacco grown
in any country may be improved by sim.
ply i~noculating it with bacteria from
some finer favored leaf growing else.
