The Lake Fishing.

Many fishermen from out of the State are
now going through to the Lakes. The
futile party, from Boston, go through to-
day in a special car on their way to the
Rangeleys.
By change of time on the Phillips and
Rangeley road yesterday the connection
with the morning train from PortIandsis off
in favor of connection with the LIS D. m.
train from this city. Thus by leaving
Portland at noon the sportsmen can be in
the Rangeley, Dead River and Eustis region
at night.
Portland fishermen who are returning
from Sebago Lake report that the luck is
varied. Last Wednesday. Thursday and
Friday, although the weather was favorable,
no one got bite. Since then Line Daniels
and others have had little better luck.
Sporting Notes.
On Thursday several members of the.Port-
land Gun club will go to Bath to shoot with
the Bath club.

THE FIELD OF SPORTS
Lewiston Wins Again On Our Own
Heather.
They Ontbatted, Outfielded aud Ontpitched
Us-It Was Square Beat and Was a
Square Fair Beat aud That's all There
is to Saw

There was good average attendance at
the game yesterday. 1t resulted 10 to in
lewiston S favor, because they outplayed
US in every way, for though they had more
real errors, yet we had more erroneous
plays, errors in Judgment, especially in base
running, that retired men who had they
waited where they belonged, would have
scored. But despite that the main fact of
defeat was that the Lewistons could bat
Dolan better than we could bat Ferson. In
the latter part of the game they piled up hit
after hit, till they reached the grand total
of eighteen. Person grew stronger as the
game progressed, and Dolan grew weaker.
We couldn't score in the last five innings
because we couldn't hit. Also our few errors
were very unfortunate. Cook allowed
grounder to go by him and let in a run.
Smith pan after a fly that belonged to
Garry, got hold of it and dropped it, and let
in two more runs, whereas if he had held it,
the inning would have closed with no runs,
and Dolan's wild pitch was disastrous.
1t was discouraging game to the on
lockers. During yesterday afternoon. at
least, the Lewiston team proved themselves
superior to the Portlands in every feature
of the game.
Following is the detailed score:

MISCELLAN EUOS.
STARVING AMID PLENTY.
The Sharp Angles Disappear.


If you are starving, its all the same
whether you starve because you cannot get
food to eat or because you cannot digest
what you do eat. The effects are the same.
The results are the same. There is a GER
tain difference, in this way; The pool man,
if he gets enough food, will soon get fat. The
invalid. whatever food he may eat, cannot
get fat, unless he feeds on artificially d.
gested food.
Since Paskola, the pre-digested food, has
been prepared, people have rapidly been
growing fatter. Before Paskola, there was
nothing that could be done TO cure dyspep-
sia 1t was the bane of the doctors. Drugs
could do nothing. Cod liver oil made it
worse. Dyspepts1s, anaemics, consumptlves
and all people who were thin and pale, who
in fact were sterving amid plenty, were
thought incurable.
To-dar it is different. We have Paskola.
We know that Paskola, being pre-digested'
will cure starving invalids- 1t vii make
thin people fat. 1t will make pale people
rosy It will make weak people strong.
Paskola dous this because it is food Be-
cause it is food that will fed you whether
you can digest other food or not. ~,
The starches are the fattening foods. We
know this because doctors forbid starchy
food to people who are growing too fat,
The chief merit in Paskola is that it is a
pre-digested food Another, that it is a
starchy food Another, that it helps you to
digest what other food you may eat.
The chief good that Paskola. can do is to
make all thin people grow fat, Another,
to relieve the pangs of indigestion. A
mother, to put fresh life in your veins, and
make you feel younger and stronger.
If Paskola were a medicine, 1t would
do you no permanent good at all. 1t is not
a medicine; it is food. We need food every
day of our lives. We do not need medicine.

The Ancient Order of United Work
men, more commonly known as the A.
o. o. W, is fraternal BENEVOLENT as
| ISOLATION. whose mission is 20 minis
to the sick, relieve the destitute and
care for the widows and orphans of its

The society was organized on the
9th day October. 1868, at Meadvine,

iting over five and one-half million
dollars per annum to the widows and
orphans Of its diseased members. TO say
nothing of the large amount expended
for other benevolent purposes.
1t is the oldest. the largest, and the
strongest ASSOCIATION of its kind in the
| world, having membership of nearly
three hundred and thirty thousand
distributed throughout the United
States and Canada.
The objects and aims of the order
may be more fully stated as follows:
l. To unite all white male persons
who are over twenty one and under
forty five years of age. regardless of
nationality, political preference, or re-
ligious belief.
2. To give equal protection to each
OF its members; to improve their men
tai, moral and social condition, and to
inspire them with a full appreciation
of the responsibilities of life.
8. To adopt such secret work and
means of recognition as will enable
them to labor together in unison and
harmony.
4. To hold lectures, read essays. es-
tablish libraries, and encourage re
search in art, science and literature.
5. To create funds for the purpose
of aiding its members, during sickness
or other disability, and generally tx
care for the living and bury the dead
6. To pledge its membership to the
payment of a stipulated srm of money

while living, may designate TO receive
it.
It will TINS be seen that the object:

Female Suffrage.


The ladies of the woman suffrage
society have asked us for space in the
Reporter TO use as they see fit in fur
therance of their cause. and we have
granted it. It is hardly necessary To
remark that we are not in any way
responsible for anything THAI appear.
In that column. We may agree OF
disagee with it in whole or in part,
That is our privilege. and we cannot
be expected to pick up a quarrel Oh
every occasion. In this respect we
shall treat them just as we have treat
ed the w. G. T. U. If any one feels
called upon to make answer to the
statements made We shall be very glad
to publish any article kept within the
bounds of courtesy and newspaper
space.
Concerning the new movement start
ed in Leroy we wish to submit few
remarks. Personally we care very
little wheather women will vote at all
our elections or not. We know that
a great many want to vote and we
believe still greater number do not
| the movement. We do not believe
that all the men or even the majority
| of them are thieves, gamblers or
whiskey bloats. Nor do we believe
that all the women, or even a majority
of them, are angles without wings.
Should they all vote, the number of
ballots would be at least double what
they are now. But does anybody be-
lieve that they would all vote one way ?
The salvation of the republic rests
upon an intelligent ballot and not so
much upon a nmerous ballot. An
motional ballot is the most dangerous
of all.
TwOyears ago by an emotional ballot
a man was elected mayor of this city
who was prim trily Instrumental in, and
criminaly gnilty of robbing the people
of over Sl3 900. He was a stranger
here. hut he was Sunday scool
teacher and class leader and he
carried a giIte dge bible under his arm
and his wife was loose mounted
female agitator who stranger to q
mothers care and love devoted heI
whole time and attention to talking
about her neighbofs. When be left
the office he was short in his account
with the city $1l04 which has never
been paid back yet. He left the city
between two days telling the people
that he was going 10 remain longer AND
soon after went to TcnneSsee, driver
there by his guilty conscience and the
fear of imprisonment. There was the
result of an emotional ballot. Tie
ladies had some vague idea thai
something was not just exactly right
They listened to the Voice of Islander
and voted for man of whom they
knew nothing. 1t may therefore be
truthfully said that the first result OF
female suffrage in Leroy WAS a fail.

SOME of the railroads notably the
Santa Fe are appealing to the county
commissioners to make a reduction on
their taxes. Attorney General Little
has given an opinion setting forth that
after the state board of assessors have
appraised and assessed railroad proper
ty it is beyord the power of any board
of commissioners TO alter it. This is
one of the ways corporations have of
making money. Every dollars reduc-
ton made on their taxes has to be paid
by the people. When railroads encoun
ter trouble with their employees where
by their property is endangered they
loose no time in calling upon county
authorities TO protect no matter what
the expense may be. hence they should
not object to paying their quota of
the taxes necessary to meet the run
ming expenses of the Wyan-
dotte Herald.
