WORLDS FAIR LADY MANAGE Rs.


CHICAGO, Aug 1.-The national board
of lady managers has been in session since
July 1th, and during that time has disposed
of many important questions relating to
Jurors of awards and womsn's work ut the
Fair. 1t is probable that the board will re-
main in session several weeks longer. Lady
managers from every state in the Union
are in attendance. Mrs. Edwin c. Bur-
leigh and Miss Helen NJ. Staples. lady man
ayers for Maine, have been in daily attend
anee. Mrs. Burleigh, who is one Of the
vice presidents, has presided over the board
on several occasions during the present ses-
sion in the absence Of Mrs. Palmer. While
many of the states have failed to obtain
recognition upon the jurors of awards, the
Maine lady managers have secured the
nomination and confirmation of Mrs. Han
nah j. Bailey of Winthrop, as one of the
Jurors on Corrections and Charities
Her Majesty the Empress of Austria has
transmitted through Colonel Fred Grant,
United States minister at Vienna. a grace
full token of personal interest IN the
Woman's building. This is in the form of
a magnificent album of tortoise shell, con-
tanning Photographic vie~s of the imperial
villa at Corfu. The front of the exquisite
album bears, in a medallion cameo, the re-
cumbent figure of knight The medallion
is surrounded by the imperial arms, exc
cuted in silver and jewels, repeated at the
four corners. The back of the album is a
single translucent piece of tortoise shell.
Both this and the front are bound with sill
yer. The hinges also are of silver. and the
whole artistic and costly folio rests in a
rich leather and silver-mounted case lined
with pale blue plush.
The villa at Corfu is so picturesque in
its surroundings, SO beautiful in itself and
so filed to overlooking with all that is rare
and artistic that it attracts visitors from all
over the world. This palace is the private
residence of the Empress and, in order TO
preserve any semblance of privacy, it has
become necessary to exclude the great mass
of eager sight seers who seek to visit il.
From the fact that so many are vainly long
ing to behold the treasures within its
grounds and classic walls, the album sent
by her majesty to the Womans building
carries graceful compliment. 1t has also
a marked significance as personal atten-
ton from the Empress, entirely distinct
from the Austrian exhibit in the Woman's
building.
The views were taken especially for the
purpose. They include exterior and in
terror views, photographs of the grounds,
furniture. statuary. pictures-everything
in detail which contributes to render the
imperial villa at Corfu one of the lovliest
spots in the world.
The reception given by Mrs. Trautmann
lady manager from New York. to Col. and
Mrs Fred ID. Grant, Mrs. Potter Palmer
ani Mrs Cyrus II. Mccormick at the New
York state building is regarded as the most
brilliant social event Of the season at the
Exposition grounds.

SETBACK TO WINTHROP.
Condensed Milk Factory Closed on Account
oi Trouble with Farmers.

WINTHROP, Aug. 1.-The directors of
the Aroostook Condensed Milk Company
held a meeting at their factory in Winthrop
Monday night, and unanimously voted to
close up the works till colder weather.
This action the directors say, is the result
of the peculiar and unprecedented action of
some Of the principal farmers of that town,
This condensed milk factory Was started
BY these same farmers, and lster the AroOs-
took Condeqsvd Milk Company, who had
erected factory at Newport, was invited
to take their subscription of $50 900 and
make the factory at Winthrop a part of
that company, which was sgreed to. The
company lived up to their agreements and
have erected and equipped one of the finest
structures of the kind in the world.
At largely attended farmers milk meet
ing held at Newport in May. schedule of
prices was agreed to by the company and
their patrons, which was l-2 cents per
quart in summer and } cents in winter.
This seemed to satisfy everyone The
Winthrop farmers held meetings and at
tempted 10 block the company by asking 3
cents per quart in summer. When il was
announced that the milk would be received,
only about 2000 quarts came and so the
contention has remained till it has culmi-
mated in the above action. Later in the
season, when the company can ship milk
by rail in cold weather, the company will
run the factory independently of the Win
throp farmers.
director of the company said that they
could handle double the amount of milk
furnished by the farmers, at no greater ex-
Pc nse and at profit, but as 1t has been,
the company was running at a loss.
\ prominent Winthrop farmer recently
told the JorRNAL that the farmers were
being paid for their milk at the factory a
price which Was the same To them as selling
their butter at q cents pound. 1t will be
noticed that selling to the factory relieves
them of the labor of manufacturing the but
ter and the risk of not getting "a cents for
the butter which was very probable.
The famous Baby" brand, put up in
glass jars, is meeting with great success,
and it is expected that all that can be man
ufactured will find ready market. Work
on this brand will be pushed at the New
port factory. which is now condensing daily
about 20, 600 quarts Of milk.
