A good story is told about Rufus Hatch.
the Wall street king who died last week.
At the age of twelve he was forced to earn
his own living, and secured employment in
general store in kennebunkport. Abou,
this time Rufus first fell in love with a
pretty girl of that town. One f4teful even
ing the boys cbarmer came Into the store.
She wanted a gallon of molasses. Tremb-
lingiy Rufus took the jug from her and
went to the hogshead. II was a bitter cold
night and the moiasses ran out slowly
Rufus kept his eyes and thoughts on the
girl. and when the jug had been filled he
gave it to her. Then he closed up the
store and went home. The next morning
he opened the store. 1t was still dark, So
he eouk not see. The Aoor seemed very
sticky and slippery, making locomotion un-
certain. He struck light and then found
that the floor was covered with three inches
of molasses. Rufus, with his brain in a
wbiri over the young woman. had forgotten
to turn of the molasses.

There seems to be prospect now Of an
early completion of that important ARGOS
took enterprise, the direct line" road to
Ashland which has been so long in contem-
plation. This project has been agitated for
over twenty years and during that time the
proposed route has been viewed by several
different boards of county commissioners.
fine road has been laid out three times. and
some fifteen years ago $1,000 was
exp nded upon it, but the fur
ther prosecution of the enterprise was sus-
pen led owing to some irregularity in the
proceedings. At the recent January meet
ing of the commissioners, the road was
again laiil out, and $1,000 assessed upon it.
The pushing of new roads across the wilder
meas between the settled eastern and west
ern borders of this county will within few
years, work great change in the map of
Aroostook. Few people realize what great
opportunities for development may be
opened in this immense territory.
