vilion plan for insane hospitals as COM
pared with the cottage system. The
chief objection which he notes to the
cottage plan is the difficulty of thorough
supervision of detached buildings. 1t
will be remembered that in a letter, ex-
tracts from which were published in
the PRESS few days ago, member OF
the staff of one of the large Massachu-
sets hositals expressed an equally
strong preference for the cottage plan.
This shows that the experts disagree,
and makes it more important for the
legislative committee to make thor
ough investigation before finally decid-
ing what plan shall be recommended.
We wi b to say here that the friends of
the cottage plan are not opposed to the
location Of the new hospital at Bangor,
and the raising of the question of the
kind of building to be constructed is the
result of no hostility to that city. They
have been led to believe by such investi-
cation as they have been able to make
that the cottage plan is superior to the
plan on which the Augusta hospital was
built, and are favoring it simply on &C
count of that conviction.

MAGAZINE NOTICES.

Scribner's Magazine for February has
number of illustrated articles on unu-
sually interesting bits of foreign lands.
DIR. Henry van Dyke writes an unconven-
tional travel sketch, with the title From
Venice to the Gross Venediger-two
places which he frankly says have no
connection in logic or in fact-the one,
the Queen of the Adriatic, and the other
big, snow-clad mountain in the Tyrol.
From far different outlook, Mr.. and
Mrs. Blashfield describe Florence and
the Florentine artist with pen and pencil
the pictures of Mr.. Blashfield giving
the artistic atmosphere of that most sug-
gestive city. From the point of view Of
the decorator, Frederic Crowninshield
concludes his impressions of modern
Rome, with illustrations of its unique
beauties. Alfred Jerome Weston gives
the color and spirit of Tangier in his
sketch entitled From Spanish Light to
Moorish Shadow, a place which is be-
coming more popular every day as win
ter resort for English and American
tourists. Another paper by the late
Marquis de Chambrun (whose pen-pic-
ture of Lincoln W rs conspicuous in the
JduudTy uuHUcIJ, SlfCo hio N1viu oI-
sonal Recollections of Charles Sumner,
with whom he was well acquainted from
1865 to Mr., Summers death in 1874. In
fiction this issue is particularly rich,
containing three complete short stories
and the second instalment of Mrs. Bur-
nett's charming serial, which is fascinat-
ing so many readers by it's picture Of the
mind of child, and because it is frankly
photographed.
Harper's Magazine for February opens
with Edwin A. Abbey's superb illustra-
tons of Twelfth Night, accompanied by
Andrew Lang's interesting and scholarly
comment upon the play. The frontis-
piece is a fine engraving, printed in tints
from drawing by Mr.. Abbey, repre-
senting Malvolio in the Dungeon. Mrs.

Annie Fields contributes delightful
chapter of personal "reminiscences OF
Whittier-notes of his life and OF his
friends hips-which is accompanied by
several illustrations and ortraits. Rev.
John w. Chadwick writes similar
chapter of Recollections of George
William Curtis, which is illustrated with
portraits of Mr.. Curtis at different periods
of his life. Julian Ralph's second paper
on the South relates to New Orleans, our
Southern Capital. More than twenty
illustrations by w. 7. Smedley supple
The story of another remarkable city is
admirably told in John B. Shipley' 8
timely article on Bristol in the time of
Cabot. This number of the Magazine is
also rich in fiction. The second install
ment of A. Conan Dople's great histori-
cal romance, The Refugees, is full of alb
sorbing interest, and is appropriately
illustrate with several striking picture s
drawn by 7. de Thulstrup. Constanc
Fenimore Wooson's new American
novel, Horace Chase, is also continued.
Maurice Kingsley contributes a thrilling
story of ranch life on the Texan border,
entitled Tic Juan, which is accompanied
by three characteristic illustrations Eby
Frederic Remington. ss,.-a
The frontispiece of the February mum
Der of the Magazine of Art is an original
etching by David Law, of his own paint
ing, After the fiesta. The opening arti-
Gle is on Current Art by Claude Philips
and is bountifully illustrated with en-,
cravings from some of the most notable
paintings of the day in England. All art
workers will be interested in Walter
Cranes paper on Design, which he has
illustrated with careful drawings. When
the World was Young, is a poem by
Ellen Thornycroft Fowler, inspired by E.
j. Pointers painting of that name which
is reproduced in this number. Henry G..
Hine, the water-color painter, is the
subject OF biographical and critical
sketch by Frederic Wedmore, with illus
trations showing the artists work. The
Kelvingrove Art Galleries and Museum,
at Glasgow, are infinitely described by
Owen Fleming and, by their size and
stateliness. put to the blush any of our
own galleries or museums of art. Mr..
Swinburne salutes January in poem Of
eight lines, illustrated by w. E. +.

The death of Judge Lama creates vacancy
in the supreme court. 1t is to be hoped that
President Harrison will recognize the proprIe-
ties OF the occasion sufficiently to leave to his
successor the appointment of a justice to sue
coed him whom death has so suddenly removed.
Such action on the part of the outgoing eXecu-
tive would be generally commended by the bet
ter sentiment of both parties. and would be as
creditable to Mr.. Harrison as any other course
VIZ uld lay him open to deserved censure--Ban-
gor Commercial.
We fail to see any force in this sugges-
ton. Mr. Harrison was elected Presi-
dent of the United States for a term end
ing March 4, 1898, to perform the con-
stitutional functions of the chief execu-
tive until that time. One of those
functions is the appointment of Supreme
Judges in case of a vacancy. Such va
cancy has occurred by reason of the
death of Justice Lamar. The vacancy
having happened in his administration
and sufficient time remaining before its
close for proper elaboration to decide
upon successor it i, clearly President
Harrison's right and duty to fill it.
The notion which the Democrats have
been cultivating since the election in No
yember that it is the duty of the
President to abdicate as soon as his sue
cessor is elected is based on nothing ex-
cept Democratic greed to monopolize all
the offices, and is entitled to no consider
alton,

In supporting Hon. Henry G. Peabody
for the vacancy on the bench of the Su-
preme Judicial Court, the Cumberland
Bar is showing a just appreciation of one
of it's ablest and most accomplished
members. 1t has, Of late, been the GUS
tom with the governors of Maine, we be-
lieve, to recognize in making their ap-
pointments the great volume of business.
especially equity business, which centres
in Portland. Judge Virgin was appoint
ed from Portland, and the appointment
of his seccessor from here would contin-
ne custom of great advantage to liti-
giants. That the voice of the Cumber-
land Bar is SO unanimous in it's prefer
ence, shows that precedent and convent
ence may be consulted with the happiest
result. The Probate Court is natural
stepping stone to a place on the supreme
bench Judge Barrows, one of the
brightest orn smenrs of that bench, was
for term of years judge of the probate
court of this county. The weight of
precedent unites with the general desire
of Governor Cleayes's townsmen that
Judge Peabody be promoted.

A reminder of the days when Portland
was frontier village, is the SO called
Arnold lease, given in 1882 by Joshua
Bracket of Greenland, N. Fl. to Thomas
Themes of Falmouth, to confirm to the
latter the use for period of years a
large farm now included in the limits of
Portland
Joshua Bracket the grantor, was the
son of Thomas B. and Mary Milton, who
inherited the farm referred to from his
mother Mary. His son Joshua came
here about 1881 and occupied the farm
referred to in this lease. The northern
and easterly boundary was line rum
ming northwesterly from the point of
rocks (now foot of Park street, which
was near the site of the Michael Milton
house, which site was the house referred
to in the lease and extended back to Back
cove, or brook leading into it. The
southern line was Fore River, some
higher than the gas house. The
grantor was never resident here,
and died in Greenland, N. Fl. He was
the father of Anthony and Joshua Jr.
who became residents here. Joshua Jr.
was the father-in-law of the Trotts who
inherited large part of Peaks Island,
from him. This farm in 1745 as also the
Hill from High street. westerly, was
covered SO thick with sapling pines, that
in the expressive language of an old
settler, dog could hardly get through
them; but that year the inhabitants
were SO much alarmed lest the Indians
and French should find shelter among
them, that they entirely cleared the land.
Joshua Jr. previous to this had cu0 off
near the head of Gray street considera-
BILE space, for wood to ship to Boston.
John and Edward Tying claimed a part
of the tract which was covered by this
lease. Capt. Edward Tying lived on
York street little west of State street.
In the year 1910 the cellar could be seen
but is now obliterated. Tying street took
its name from him. Andrew Mock now
rendered Knox, an ancestor of General
Knox, lived on this tract. These con-
flieting claims led to a lawsuit relative to
the title in 1872.
Thomas Themes the lessee was here
in 1716 and built house near Clay cove.
Benjamin Larraby one of the witnesses
Casco, and was there when it was or
dered to be demolished by the Massachu-
sets government He was born in 1866.
His father Isaac, was one of the early
settlers in North Yarmouth, and was
driven off by the Indians in the year
1889 and settled at Lynn. Capt. Larraby
married Deborah, born 1888, daughter of
John Ingersole, one of our ancient set
tiers, who had large claim here, which
circumstance probably induced Larraby
to establish himself here. He built a
house on the northern corner of Middle
and Pearl streets.
John Sawyer, another witness, lived at
Ferry Village, Cape Elizabeth, and was a
large owner of land on which the build
ings of that village is built--a merchant
who built wharf, and did more bust
ness than any other man has since done
at that place. From the amount of hay
raised, and other produce raised on the
above described farm, / am satisfied the
resettlement of the town began some
years earlier than historians name as the
date, IT'S. s. P. MAYBERRY.

The sending of one thousand addition
al troops to Egypt will increase the Brit
ish force there to 5000 men which will
be enough to overawe the khedive unless
he receives assurances of active support
from France or Russia, which is not
likely. Though the khedive has shown
tendency to be somewhat obstreperous
recollection of the fate that befel
Arab Pasha is likely to restrain him
from any active measure to weaken the
grip of the English upon the country,
unless he can count on more effective
support than the dervishes can give him.
Should France, h 'wever, manifest dis
position to encourage him his inclina-
ton to revolt the situation might as
sumo serious aspect. Yet even then
the British could hardly be dislodged, for
they hold all the strategic points, and
the native army is largely under their
control.
