MAINE GOSSIP.

The villagers of Gorham want TO BIZ con
nec-ed with the city of Portland by electric
street railway, and ii is believed such con-
nec,ion is not very far in the distance.
A lady who called at a Lewiston store
Monday morning complained of being very
cold. The proprietor pointed her to the
n gister. Soon after he noticed the lady
was standing on wire mat with her hands
spread out. She said she was nice and
warm.
The only man General Grant ever pro-
NOTED on the battlefield is General Joshua
l.. Chamberlain of this State The honor
came as the result strangely enough of
this soldiers disobedience of orders. Com
handing brigade before Petersburg, he
was ordered to charge the main line of the
defence. Foreseeing the slaughter, he
wrote back a protest against such move,
but said he would willingly make the at
tack with the whole army as his support.
Finally the attack was made in fore, and
Grant raised him TO brigaiiership.

One day last week Mr. Eben Leeman of
Starks went to Skowhegan and drew his
pension check, which amounted to about
$3.50 He went to the bank and got it
cashed, put it in his pocket and went home.
1t was late in the evening when he reached
there, and then he discovered that he had
lost the pocketbook, money and all.
Early the next morning search was made,
and $50 reward was offered to the finder.
Mr.. Leeman remembered of having the
wallet this side of Mercer village and just
beyond the place where he had forded the
Sandy river. On the third day of the
search it was decided that the peck book
must have dropped out of his pocket into
the river, so a large crew Of men and boys
began To search there, and about 100 rods
below the ford Mr.. Lecman found his wal
let in the middle of the river lodged ON a
rock. The bills were wet, but were all
right.
That evening Mr.. H. called his neighbors
and friends together that they might re-
joice with him, for he had found that
which was lost, and gave them IA good
arlington (Me.) Chronicle.

There have been delivered to certain per-
sons through the postoilice during the past

one of them, addressed to a former citizen,
who is now, it is hoped, in better land than
this: you are hereby notified that pursu-
