The anti-scalpers' bill, which has
been missing for some time, and which
its enemies hoped was dead, bobbed ur
serenely in the house in the form of a
request from its author, Mr. Vansant,
of Winona, that copy of the original
bill be passed under suspension of the
rules. This developed considerable dis
cussion and objection, principally from
those who oppos d the measure on its
first passage. Before the motion to
suspend the rules was put a call of the
house was ordered. The rules were
suspended and the measure passed by
an increased majority:
In urging the passage of the coal
combine bill, Mr.. Dounelly said the
more the committee delved into the in
vestigation the more they became i'm
pressed with the injustice to the peo-
pie, and especially the poor people, in
making an unnatural high price on coal.
He also said the combine was Gripping
the manufacturers of the state that de-
pend on cheap coal, and if not checked
would eventually result in rendering
our manufacturers unable to compete
with the east. He called attention to
the small appropriation asked for by
the measure.

Senator Donnelly introduced S. F.
551, a bill to provide for reports of the
legislature and portion of the debates
therein. The bill is novel one. After
short preamble, it goes on to provide
that three months before the legisla-
ture meets the secretary shall adver-
tise for eight weeks for bids from news
papers for publishing an official report
Of the Legislature, including steno-
graphic reports of important discus
sions, and for furnishing copies of the
paper ready for mailing. The bill war
read second time and placed at the
head of general orders.

It was reported that the friends OF
the capitol bill had determined to urge
a change in the location of the site.
The site now talked of is at the head of
Wabasha street, on the high ground
where the interurban street car line
bends from Wabasha off toward Rice
street. BY selecting this site the old
capitol could be used during the con.
strnction of the new one.

The bill to create the Office of land
and immigration agent was reported
back to the house by the committee on
public lands with a substitute which
changes the bill only in the specifica-
ton of details. Friends of the measure
say that the new Office will not entail
any additional expense, as it provides
for division of the work now per.
formed by the auditor, so that the du.
ties of land commissioner, which he
now performs, shall be performed by
the commissioner provided for in the
bill.

A TALK ON CATARRH.

Catarrh has become so com.
mon that it has attracted the at
tention of all specialists and all
medical men.
1t is generally considered that
all persons over twenty one years
old are suffering from Catarrh.
1t is also known that few, If any,
of the general practitioners Of
medicine are prepared to treat
this disease with any degree Of
success This arises from the
fact that in the medical colleges
there is little or no instructions
on this disease. and few of
the medical students care to hear
what is taught Therefore, the
person suffering from Catarrh,
must either 60 to the large cites
and put himself under treatment
of some specialist for many
months, or accept some OF the
many nostrums that arc put on
the market as "Catarrh Cures.
In the first place, very few are
able to take the treatment OF
specialists at the enormous prices
they charge, and not one of the
nostrums sold at drug stores as
cures, will do more than palate
the disease Realizing this con
dition for some years, we have
given Catarrh special study, and
now beg to announce that we have
perfected a system OF cure that
if used as directed, will not fail
to make permanent and sound
cure.

CATARR Ri.

BY the word Catarrh medical
men mean an inflammation Of the
mucous membrane. Now mucous
membrane is the lining that lines
the mouth, nose, throat, windpipe,
stomach, bowels, bladder, etc, so
using the word Catarrh in the
broad sense, we might mean Ca
tarrh Of the nose, throat, stomach
etc. But in speaking of Catarrh
people generally understand us
to mean a disease Of the mucous
membrane lining the cavities Of,
the nose and throat, and the Gus
tachian tube leading to the ears.
How do you know that you
have Catarrh2 You find you can
not breathe we'll, or your your ears
ring, or your head become stuff d
up; when you lay down you find
that one Of your nostrlls becomes
stopped up and you feel all out
Of sorts, generally. In fact you
don't know what ails you. You
call in your family physician.
He presoribes-all to no avail.
Then you get to reading some
patent medicine advertisement
and you find out what ails you.
You try patent medicine and
generally get your first relief but
it is not permanent The reason
that you have not been cured is
because each case requires special
treatment
DO not put off for another day
treatment Of this terrible disease
Put yourself under the treatment
of some good specialist at once.

cal and Surgical Institute, Of

Portland people who have noticed the
abominable condition Of the streets in the
last year, especially in mud times and
during the high winds of fall and spring,
are pleased at the excellent work which
is being done by Commissioner Prince.
Tuesday the paving on Congress street
was carefully scraped from Washington
to the Union Station. Yesterday Spring
street from High to Vaughan, and Middle
street from Congress to the vicinity of
Franklin, were similarly treated. These
streets were not scraped at all last year.
The street department are hampered
considerably by the shape in which the
department was left by the Democrats.
Apparently realizing that they were in
only for year, they used the material
and equipment for all it was worth,
without any thought for the future.
Thus the teams are in very poor shape
and there are no supplies of crushed
stone. sand or gravel on hand for the
kpring work. In former years several
thousand dollars worth of such supplies
have been laid in during the winter,
ready for the spring.

Episcopa1 Diocesan missions.

The quarterly meeting Of the Board of
Missions for the Episcopal Church of the
Maine dioceseowas held at st. Luke's
Cathedral yesterday. Bishop Nicely, pre-
siding. u-se
The work of this mission is chiefly in
caring for home missions. In addition
to the Bishop there were in attendance
twelve of the clergy of the diocese.
Under the care of this board about
$500 are raised annually to assist the
Episcopal church where it needs aid.
There are some eightor more missions in
the diocese that require assistance in
amounts varying from $3.50 to $500 per
annum. This amount is provided for
chiefly by offerings from the more pros
porous societies.
The Woman's Auxiliary is supple
mental to the Board, and they do good
work in the way of contributions of
clothing and aid to the fund in gen
eral.
During the morning session resolutions
in memory Of the late treasurer, Charles
B. Greenleaf were adopted and ordered
to be spread upon the records.
Rev. Charles T. Ogden of Woodfords
secretary of the board, was elected treas
urer pro tenn until the vacancy may be
filed at the next quarterly meeting
which will probably be held in Gardiner
in June. ,-' ~
In the evening there was apublic mis-.

In the Ring.

The secretary of the fremont Athle tic
Club of Boston has written Lewiston
sporting man to learn of the record OF
Reardon, the amateur, who polished off
a Boston man of his class before the club
last week in such an effective manner
that the mill was stopped by the police.
The Boston sports concluded that he
was professional and not entitled to
the watch, for which the contest took
place, in other words that he was
ringer. But such is not the case. Rear
don never spared for compensation and
is strictly an amateur, but is good two
handed fighter, and can get any amount
of backing if he wishes to enter the pro-
fessional ring The Lewiston mans re-
ply to the fremont club will probably
Settle all doubts.

Visit the Atkinson sale of Clothing
Sons of the Revolution.

To the Editor of the Press:
I have noticed of late that the Boston
papers are reporting names and residence
of "a son of a Revolutionary soldier, :"
quite number of them residents of
Maine. In my search for eligible persons
to become members of our Society of
the Sons of the American Revolution"
I have found four brothers living who
are sons of Revolutionary soldier. At
the time of said war, Jacob Sawyer was
native of Cape Elizabeth, and served
six months in Captain Daniel Strout's
company, in 1775. and nine months in
Captain William Crocker's company, in
1776, and also in Captain Joshua Jordan S
company, Colonel Jonathan Mitchelrs
regiment. in the disastrous Penobscot
expedition, from July 7th to September
25th, 1779.
After the war the old soldier removed
| to Durham, in this county, and there
married his third wife, and their chill
dren, all born there, are as follows: Mer-
rick Sawyer, now of South Thomaston,
granite manufacturer and dealer, and in
business today, at the age of 81; James
I'll. Sawyer, of Hermon, retired teacher:
| David B. Sawyer, of Lewiston, physi
clan; and Joseph Sawyer, late of West.
brook, but now in New York state; all
worthy sons of a worthy sire. 1 know
them all personally, so there is no mis-
| take in this statement The old soldier
drew pension until his death, in De;
cember, 1881, and later his widow had
| the pension.
1 think this statement breaks the rec
| ord thus far.

THE MURDER Ar PROCTOR.

Insane Jealousy tho CnuSc-John Floyd
Shot Down While Holding his Sweet
heart In His Arms.
PRocToR, ONO, Nov. There was a
narrow escape from a double murder,
growing out OF insane jealousy, IN this
quiet little village last night. John
Floyd was shot dead while sitting with
his arm about Miss Lucy Whites
waist. and the young woman received
enough shot to disfgure her for life.
Floyd and a young fellow named Harry
Smith we're at one time rivals for the
hand OF Miss White. She looked with
favor upon Floyd, and was engaged to
marry him. FLOYD called last night,
and at 1850 was about to say good bye
and held his sweetheart in his arms
when Smith fired the contents Of shot
gun into his head, tearing away the
whole back OF his head, killing him in
stantly. Several OF the shot struck
Miss White in the face. Smith stood
Just outside window when he fired,
not fifteen feet away. He made his es-
cape, but OF course they are after him.

Notwithstanding the denials printed
in East Liverpool and Toronto papers,
the details OF the proposed combination
into one corporation of all the sewer
pipe manufacturing concerns in the
Ohio Valley, as published exclusively in
the IxrELLIGEScER, are perfectly correct
in every particular. The gentleman
who gave the information is on the in
side in one OF the companies that will
enter the combine, and it can be said
now on his authority that the move
ment looking toward the combination
is being quietly pushed. and unlesa
something unforeseen happens the pa
pers OF incorporation will be taken out
very soon. a.
1t is also learned that unless the com.
bination is effected within very short
time not less than three OF the firms in
the valley will be forced to make as.
sgnments. Naturally, therefore, the
effort to reach a satisfactory understand
ing is very strong, as the failure OF these
firms at the present time would have a
terribly demoraIizing effect on the in
dustry in this section.
Statements in the daily press to the
effect that there is not n movement on

entirely without foundation. l have
