citizen, anxious to rival Mr.. 7. Suffern
Taller and to dazzle the eyes of his friends,
recently invested in a f~our-in-hand, in
which he drove gayly and with the repose
of manner which only unlimited wealth
can give. Alas. for poor humanity! He
had never read that the owner Of a coach
must always sit on the box seat, and in
stead placed himself inside the coach and
drove along blissfully unconscious of the
worst faux pas he had ever made. The
turnout was perfect in every detail except
ing his W frightful fault. which has rem
dered him an object of ridicule instead of
pride and envy.-Vogue.

More Ancient Books.

To the Editor of the Press:
I notice in the columns of today's Press,
under the caption of "Old Books" COM
munication from George S. Farnsworth,
ESQ.,, of North Bridgton, in which he
states that he has an old Bible published
in 1866, also Greek Testament published
in London in 1880.
I have in my possession a Bible PUG
lished in London in 1851 by Charles Bill
and ye Executrix of Tho. Newcomb de-
ceased.
This Bible is in an excellent state of
preservation, notwithstanding it is
nearly two centuries old. 1t has solid
silver clasps, and the corners of the
material. Engraved on the clasps are
the names of Hannah Waite and Sarah
Waite. 1t is believed to have been in
possession of some member of the Waite
family since it first came to this country.
My mother, Harriet Waite, was daugh-
ter of Capt. John Waite, who may posi-
bly, be remem bered by some of our Oldest
citizens as one of Portland's old-time
shipmasters, in the early part OF the
present century, when Portland sent her
ships to the East as well as to the West
Indies. On blank page partially de-
voted to Family Record, find the
name of Stephen Waite, born Oct. 10, 1888,
who was, I think, the father of the Steph
en- Waite who was for many years proml-
nent merchant, also engaged in naviga-
ton, and who lived in a house that was
burned in the great fire Of 1866, on the
corner of Franklin and Middle streets.
He was for many years a vestryman in
the old ST. Pau1s church which stood
on Pearl ST., between Middle and Fed
eral streets, and is now known as ST.
Stephens church on Congress ST., of
which Rev. DR.. Asa Dalton is pastor.
Another of these old time shipmasters
was Capt Jonathan Waite, a brother to
Capt. John, who after his retirement from
a seafaring life moved to Poland, and
died there many years ago He has nu-
merous descendants now living in that
vicinity, who rank among Names best
citizens.

English and Russian Rivalry.

Russia possesses both in Europe and
Asia the largest and most excellent re-
gions of wheat lands yet untouched on
the face of the earth, requiring nothing
but capital, cultivation and railroad
facilities to produce a surplus sufficient
to feed Europe without calling on Ameri-
ca for a single bushel of wheat. The
Russian oil fields rival those of Pennsyl-
vania, and the great plains can feed mil
lions of horses and cattle England has
been looking at Russia through green
spectacles for over century and Russia
has been trying to overreach her at every
opportunity. Each nation has done, and
is doing all it can to thwart and injure
the other at all times and in all places
How much this is done is not generally
known. As it is now the British CAPT.
talist would rather invest anywhere than
in Russia, and the Russian diplomatist
never finds one of his Eastern schemes
countermined without blaming his Eng
lish brother. Only intense mutual jeal-
ousy could have prevented the two ma
tions SO long from seeing that each was
the natural complement of the other
that each had what the other lacked
and that, working in harmony, each
could expand to an unlimited extent
without interfering with the other. AS
it is, England stands in the way of
Russian progress She seems unable to
realize that It is as futile to try to pre-
vent great people from reaching the sea
as it would be to stop an Alaska glacier
on it's way to the Pacific ocean.-William
Selbie in North American Review.

change. Mr.. Toomey manufactures
macaroni, and he wanted the duty of
two cents O pound ON that article re-
tanned In his factory he said sixteen
men received $3.50 in a week, an average
of $40 week each, and 30 girls received
S9S, an average of about 81 SO per week.
In Italian factories sixteen men receive
$40 IN week, an average of 50. SO a week
each, and 20 girls,,receiye SIS. 40 in a week
an average of so cents per week each.
We pay S25S a week for labor, where
they pay $685." said Mr.. Toomey. Mr..
Toomey went out of the committees
room impressed with the idea that he had
given good treason for the retention
of the duty of two cents a pound. AS
matter of fact, however, he had offered
the best reason in the world why the
Democratic majority of the Ways and
Means committee should recommend and
the Democratic majority of the House OF
Representatives should vote for its repeal.
He had shown that this duty of two cents
was a protective duty, and that it en-
abled the American manufacturer to pay
higher wages to his help than would be
possible were it taken off. Consequently
he had shown conolusively that it was
just the kind of duty that the plat
