Feathers In Germany.

As soon as she is able to run about
each daughter of German farmers
family is presented with linen bag
marked with her own name, into which
she puts all the feathers she can pick
up. Not the slightest downy bit escapes
her. and the sooner the bag is filled the
greater the praise she gets from the
parents. The bag being full, it is emp
tied into larger one. which hangs in
the garrett or elsewhere, and when there
are feathers enough they are made into
pillows or holsters or beds or cushions
for easy chairs. We waste great deal
in this country Although we do not
keep so many geese as Germans keep

aged 20 years. His father, mother. sister
and one brother survive him. The funeral
services will be held Wednesday, at 2 P.
M, under the auspices Of Highland Lodge,

shock to the entire community. where he
was highly esteemed. 1t resulted from an
accident last Thursday. Mr.. Whitney was
engaged in sinking q large boulder which
weighed several tons. He was not aware
of its peculiar shape and while digging it
slid in upon him, crushing his hips and
bowels fesrfully. BY almost superhuman
exertion he extricated himself and dragged
himself with nothing but shovel to aid
him home nearly half mile distant.

tMY AUNT SALLY.

Those who attended the four-act comedy
AUNT Sally" at the Opera house, Saturday,
evening, generally agree that it was much
better entertainment than was expected
The audience was small one, yet the out
bursts of laughter at many times would
lead you to think more people were present
than there really were.
The aim of each act and scene seemed to
be to produce the ludicrous, and if such
was the case the idea was we'll carried out,
though some parts were overdrawn. Love,
robbery and murder were mixed into the
performance, and when the villain was dis
covered he was tumbled in a
sausage machine and ground up.
William Gray as Milwaukee Behr
was funny and has the Dutch lingo to per-
lection. BERTHE Conway, girl, as little
Tommy Tucker, was the mischievous rascal
that produced considerable fun. Ben Howe
as Aunt Sally was an amusing character
and Harry Sargent as Sergt. O'Donovan
Bradley (of Togus, he said,) had one ex,
cep.ionally funny song, as take off on the
Japanese, Chinese and Grover Cleveland.

said to a JOURNAL man, Saturday: "a
prominent feature of the old Canadian city
of Quebec is the large and elegant stone

BRIEF HISTORY
Of The Congregational Church which viii
Hold CenisanIai Celebration Tomorrow.

Hole Cenfehh1aI CeIebration Tomorrow.
The Congregational church of this city
will hold its centennial celebration tomor
row, an event in the history Of this society
which will be Of great importance. Several
of the early pastors will be present and the
gathering will be an interesting one.
Probably at this time brief history OF
the Granite church would prove readable.
The church has had the following pas.
tors: Rev. Daniel Stone, October 1905 to
Jnre 1909; Rev. Benjamin Tappan, D. D.,
October 1911 to September 1850; Rev. E.
B. Webb, d. D., September 1850 to Sep
TENDER 1860; Rev. Alexander Mckenzie
D. D., August 1861 to January 1867; Rev.
]. F. Bingham, December 1867 to Septem-
Der 1870; Rev. James h. Ecob, D. D.,
October 1872 to January 1881 Rev. Henry
e. Mott, September 1881 to November
1882; Rev. A. r. Skeele, April 1884 to
March 1889; Rev. James s. Williamson,
May, 1890 to -. SIG
In connection with this it may be inter-
esting to, recall the fact that the first re-
ligious service ever held within the limits of
Augusta, was in the Roman Catholic form,
conducted by Rev. Gabriel Druillettes, be-
fore the inhabitants of a wigwam village,
on the bank Of the river, three miles above
the Kennebec dam in what is now q cult
vated field. This was in the fall of 1896
The first Westinghouse was similar to a
country schoolhouse Of the present time
and it was located nearly in front of the spot
where the r. {. Allen Publishing House now
stands. This church was built in 1882, the
size being 5Ox36, 81 feet posts. The build
ing was first occupied for worship in 1888,
but was not completed until ID years later.
In it were conducted the ceremonies of the
town in commemoration of the death Of
Washington. In 1886 Rev. Isaac Foster of
Hartford Conn. ). came to preach and he was
the first settled pastor.
The first organization of the Congrega-
tional parish Of this city, dates from
1894, when it started with Is members.
Rev. Charles Turner .officiated as its
minister for few months. Rev. Daniel
Stone, a graduate of Harvard, was the
second settled pastor. The frame of a
new building was raised, July 1907, size
s4x62 feet, spire and tower l25 feet. 1t
was completed at cost of $l2, 68l and was
dedicated December 20, 1909. In 1922 bell
was given to the parish, costing $545, one
half having been paid by T. L. Winthrop
of Boston, and the other half by James
Bridge and Reuel Williams of this city.
In 1886 an organ costing $500 was pre-
scented by Reuel Williams and Alfred Red
ington and high standard of music was
established, which has ever since been
steadily maintained. In 1864 this meeting
house was struck by lightning and was
burned with all its contents. -.
In May 1865 new design was accepted
and the present Granite church was ere ct
ed. The size 10 l14x6i, tower and
spire l7s feet. The cost was $47 900, bell,
organ and furniture $40, 900. 1t was ded
icated July 5, 1866.
The addresses to be delivered at the ser
vices tomorrow will convey an idea of the
various pastors work.

One of the most ubstanti ally constructed
buildings in Augusta will be the new
Masonic temple. The arrangement through
out will be exceptionally convenient and
pleasant. Talk of elegant rooms, but the
club quarters will surpass anything in the
city. Every member of the Masonic Social
Club will have key to the rooms, and no
one except members and specially invited
friends will be allowed to enter. Passing
through the double doors, you will enter an
octagonal room with handsome arch, and
from this room you may pass into any
apartment. In this room will be three
large looking-glasses. The par will be
a model of elegance and most beautifully
decorated and furnished. One OF
the most pleasant arrangements will
be the balcony extending across the rear,
upon which it will be delightful to sit in the
summer evenings and view the beautiful
Kennebec and East side scenery. Work
began Saturday on the roof and one trus.
was put up, having $50 iron bolts in it.
There will be four of these. and in all a ton
and half of steel bolts will be used. A
splendid feature of the hall will be the
height of the ceiling, while in the center
will be the dome. 1t is the idea to have
different colored electric lights in this hall
which will be one of the points of beauty.

A DESPERATE FIGHT.
Between u. y. Deputy Marshals and
Polish Miners-One Killed and
Several Wounded.

La Sale, Ills, Aug. Sin resisting ar
rest Polish miner named Jos. Sherman
was fatally shot and two deputy sheriffs
wounded with saber thrusts. Deputy
Sheriffs Thos. Hanley, A.. A. Coley, Michael
Brennan and Thomas Brennan surround
ed Sherman's house to prevent his escape,
Sherman having twice got away from the
officers. He is desperate character and
wanted for the prominent part he played
in the riots in the Union shaft six weeks
ago. An entrance was forced into the
house where the deputy sherffs were con-
fronted by both the younger and older
Shermans and their wives, all armed with
cavalry sabers. Determined effort was
made to disarm them and it was not until
one of them had been dangerously
wounded that the deputies resorted to
fire arms. Three shots we're fired and the
younger Sherman fell mortally wounded.
The miners in the neighborhood rushed
to the rescue and made an effort to mob
the deputy sheriffs. The prompt arrival
of the militia saved the lives of the
deputy sheriffs, who were surrounded by
the mob. The militia men used their
bayonets to disperse the mob. The
foreigners are vowing vengeance.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
A Reciprocity Animal.

There was a sensation at the Exchange
hotel last evening when queer looking
quadruped walked in at the front door
and permitted itself to be caught under a
soft hat. 1t proved to be a mountain
rat, rather an interesting animal, that
looks like cross between a guinea pig
and kangaroo, its front legs serving
more as hands than feet. To-day the lit
tie fellow eats crackers and nuts and ap-
pears perfectly at home.
Campers in the mountains recognizein
these animals several good traits, among
which are an amiable disposition and an
honesty that is remarkable in dumb
animals, for it is stated as fact that
they never take anything from camp
that they do not try to make amends by
returning something in its stead. Alex.
Allen says they are remarkable for their
strict adherence to the principles of reci,
prOcity.

STILL ANOTHER.
Implicated in the Tarsney Affair
DR.. J. T.. Reed, OF Colorado
Springs, Arrested.

Colorado Springs, Aug. s.-Dr. j. T.
Reed, prominent mine owner and poll
tician, has been arrested as one of the
principals in the Tarsney outrage. On
his person was found, it is said, copy
of the extraordinary oath, which, accord
ing to Wilson's confession, was sub
scribed to by the men who tarred and
feathered Tarsney. They swore to in
flict just and needed punishment on an
archists and such criminals and strikers
in Cripple Creek and sympathizers,
either in high or low position. Even the
chief executive of the state was not to be
excepted, "and all such that shall be
deemed guilty of crimes against law
abiding citizens" They also pledged
themselves to punish anyone who gave
away the secrets of the order.
The grand jury in the presentment of
its report regarding Cripple Creek, says:
'The executive officers of the county
have been seriously interfered with by
the executive department of the state in
the execution of writs and the situation
has become practically beyond their con-
troll" Three hundred and twenty-one in
dictments have beer turned in.

Donald McRae has returned to the city,
having while away on his trip to the
mountains bonded an interest in his gold
property to British syndicate, they in
tarn binding themselves to erect a large
milling plant capable of treating at least
100 tons of ore per day. The purchase
price is not known but it is understood
to be large amount. Operations will
be begun on the property as soon as the
representatives who visited the property
with Mr.. McRae can get home and COM
plete arrangements. They have already
started on their return by way of Victoria,
B. c., where they go to examine another
gold mine. From thence they take the
Canadian Pacific railroad east 1t is
hoped that the arrangements thus begun
will be carried through without a hitch,
as some of the largest mining operators
in Great Britain will be interested, and
more money will be sure to follow where
srch men lead. as they are genrys'ly
shrewd and careful investors.
