Poison Ivy.

Known as Poison Ivy when it grows
as climber, and as Poison Oak, espee-
tally in the. South and West, when it is
an upright or creeping shrub. Rhus
radicans is one of the commonest and
most justly hated of weeds. In spring
the young copper colored, shining leaves
are tempting to the eye, the punches of
white berries i'll the autumn are no less
pretty; it is undeniably handsome
plant. Yet for all that we would thank
fully see it disappear for ever from
grove and field and wayside-its beauty
is but The allurement of the poisoner.
It is because of it's venomous properties
that we object to the plant, and it's still
more virulent sister, the Swamp Dog
Wood. The cause of its poisonous action
on the skin with which is comes in con-
tact was long a mystery. AS a rule it is
only the most isolated poisons that affect
by mere contact. The Poison Ivy holds
no fatal alkaloid like those that make
belladonna, aconite and nux vomica
fatal. The riddle was read when a GER
tain bacteri UNI was found always to ac-
company the plant. Doubtless it is this
tiny organism that enters the pores of
the skin and causes the characteristic
wart-like swel1ings by its poisonous ex-
cretions. Poison Ivy is illustrated in
No.11 of Wild Flowers of America, just
issued.

NEW BRIDGES.
The Maine Central is Putting New Ones on
the Great Rivers.

The MainesC Railroad Company
is doing some extensive bridge building
along its line this year. Some of the
first iron bridges erected in this state
were constructed across theAndroscoggin
and Kennebec rivers twenty years ago or
more These bridges were of the best
type of bridge constr uction of that day,
and have done their work Ewell for all
these years, but they were .of different
design and lighter material than is now
used under the requirements of the best
modern practlce and the Maine Central
railroad deemed it wise to take advan-
tage of the unprecedentedly low price for
bridge material atfpresent existing and
put all it's bridges in condition to
abundantly meet any possible increase
| in weight of locomotives or trains which
the coming years may develop. The four
long bridges replaced by new structures
the present year1are as follows:
Topsham.bridge, over the Androscog-
gin, between Brunswick and Topsham,
on the main line, four spans. length
$50 5-12thS feet.
Kennebec bridge over the Kennebec
river, at Waterville, four spans, length
612 feet.
Tfconic bridge, over the Kennebec riv-
er, at Waterville, four spans. length 62S
feet, and the two west spans of Lewiston
bridge, over the Androscoggin, between
Lewiston and Auburn length 81 2-12ths
feet.
The new spans of Kennebec bridge, the
upper one at .Waterville and the two new
spans at Lewiston, have already been
completed, and the new spans at Ticonic
bridge and Topsham bridge are almost
completely ?
The work of replacing the old spans by
new ones is carried along without any
delay to the numerous trains, a strong
and substantial wooden trestIe being
erected to carry the trains and provide
forSthe OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
These new bridges are constructed of
theabes quality of steel, all OF which is
subjected to the most severe tests and
rigid inspection during it's manufacture
and while.in process of construction at
the bridge works
The bridge material is supplied by the
Boston Bridge Works, but all the work
of erection is done by the employees of
the bridge department of the Maine Cen
trail railroad.
The new spans are. some of the heaviest
and strongest of any railroad bridges ev-
er erected, and are fine examples of mod
ern bridge construction.

road has just been extended from Lunt's
Corner to their village, distance OF
some three-quarters of a mile, making the
whole distance form the junction with

miles, and the villagers determined to

flags and streamers and brilliant lights,
| and provided a hbral amount of ice
cream and cake. While the ladies did
this. the residents of the place.made East
Deering glow with colored lights, for
about every house in the village was tes-
tooned with Chinese lanterns, and many
displayed candles in the window panes,
reminding one of good old-fashioned
campaign celebration. The firescompany
was also determined to have hand, and
as the first car appeared loaded with
guests from Portland and other parts of
Deering. they were greeted by the ex-
plosion OF cannon crackers, cheers and
music. There was another car followed
later, and the occupants were also warm
ly received. In all about rs went out
from the city. There were no speeches,
but the visitors thronged the hall, ate
ice cream and shared in the rejoicing of
their hosts.
The Portland Railro ad Company is to
be congratulated on the facilities they
have afforded the East Deering people,
and the East Deering people ION Having
obtained them. The cars are expected
to be running regularly Wednesday.

A VERY SAD CASE.
Together-Sad Story of Guest At the
West End Hotel

Nearly three weeks ago lady arrived
at the West End Hotel. She.was Grip
pie, having some serious trouble with
her foot, and had to be carried to her
room. She had been here before at the
Maine General Hospital, and came this
time for treatment. She was visited by
the physicians at the hotel. Last Thurs
day, after she had been at the hotel for
about two weeks. attention was attract
ed to her by her strange proceedings She
began to send large number of tele-
grams to various people and places, and
there was no sense to the words that she
wrote. She apparently thought that she
was newspaper correspondent, and sent
messages to the Bar Harbor Record.
Her home is in Bar Harbor. Most of
the kilograms were not sent, but her
husband, Andrew Stafford of Bar Har-
Dor, was informed of his wife's affection
and sent a woman, who arrived here
Friday, just after Mrs. Stafford had
been induced to take he.train for home.
Her mental trouble was very sudden
and totally unexpected by her family.
When his wife, bereft Other reason, ar
rived home Friday, Andrew Stafford
fairly broke down and cried. He had
just passed through the misfortune of
business failure, and his livery stable
was in the hands of receivers. He has
since carried his wife, to the asylum at
Augusta, and has expressed shimself as
very grateful for the kind care and
consideration that she received at the
West End hotel.
Mrs. Stafford is woman in the prime
of life, and evidently very bright and
smart. There is no apparent reason for
her sudden misfortune. -, -:>-
There is one child. son about 10
years of age.

REMARKABLE BOWLING.
Police Officer Brown Beats the Peaks
Island Record.

At Peaks Island yesterday, in Pines
bowling alley, Police Officer Brown
made remarkable score. Previous to
this year he has not bowled for four
years and only three or four.times this
year.
Yesterday he made a score as low as 10.
and other scores around 200 sand 212, but
this particular score was wonder. He
began with "spare," then he rolled
nine STRIKES" in succession, smaking a
score of 290, the best possible score be-
ing of course 300. Mr.. Pine stated that
it was the best score that was ever made
on Peaks Island. Possibly it is thebest
score ever made in the state. If any
PRESS reader knows of better we
should he glad to hear of it.

The Pavilion.

Those wishing good, hearty laugh
should.attend.a performance of the..grand
English comedy "Our. Boys,n at the Pa
vilion at Peaks Island, this week. The
piece was given its initial performance
yesterday afternoon, TO good house,
and another larger house greeted it in
the evening. 1t is certainly deserving of
large houses all the week, as it is one of
the brightest comedies yet produced at
this popular place, and one which gives
every member of the company an oppor-
tunity to do clever work. Every part
was.performed admirably, and the mem
tion of any one in particular would be
doing the rest of the performers an in
justice.
