lGOOD TEMPLARs.
Session of Cumberland District Lodge at
North Windham.

Cum berland District Lodge held it's
midsummer session with Pine Tree
Lodge, North Windham Tuesday. An
enthusiastic. if not large crowd arrived
at the hall at about eleven O'Clock. The
visitors received cordial welcome from
the entertaining lodge and plans were
made for the advancement of the order
during the next three months.
The officers were nearly all present
and made good reports. The subordinate
lodges were reported by the delegates and
show that the lodges are doing very we'll
during the. heated term which is always
considered a hard time for the order.
Most of them are well situated finau-
cially.
Workers will be put in the field this
fall, and the propsect is fiattering for
large increase in the near future
The next session will be held in
November probably with White Rock
Lodge.
The following resolutions were passed:
Whereas, We believe that the nature of
the light beers so generally sold in the
stores is not universally understood,
and that their use is only the entering
wedge of King Alcohol, and if persisted
in will surely lead to intemperance.
Therefore,
Resolved, That we consider their use to
be, both in spirit ard in letter, a viola-
tion of our sacred obligation and that we
will use our influence to have their use
discontinued.
Whereas, 1t is feared that in some in
stances our lodge discipline is somewhat
lax, and that our Order suffers, and is
shorn Of much Of its influence and
power thereby. Therefore,
Resolved, That we counsel our lodges,
by that means which in all Christian
CHARITY and justice seems to be most ex-
pedient, that they snallenforce the disci-
pline and observe the laws of our Order.
Whereas, We observe with sorrow the
apparent disregard of their sworn duty
by some of our county officers, whereby
the saloon and it's influence is allowed
to increase and prosper in some locali
ties. Therefore,
Resolved, THAT we protest against such
action as subversive of law, and as un-
dermining respect for law, and we call
upon citizens to vote only for candidates
who are pledged to enforce our laws. in
the interests of order and good govern
ment.
Whereas, It is SO evident that the
strongest weapon in the hands of the
people today with which to fight for the
right against the wrong, is, the ballot.
Therefore
Resolved That we recommend our
lodges to bring into their lodge work
such an element of education along that
line, that shall prepare our young people
to vote .intelligently and coDscientiously
for the prohi biton of the liquor traffic
The usual vote of thanks forcordial well
come and su bst autial entertainment was
given by the visitors.

THE BARK j. H. HAMLEN.
The Facts OF Her Disaster and the
Rescue Of the Crew.

She Struck Some Wreck age and Stove a
Hole in the Hull-For Four Days The
Crew Waited On the Wave Swept
Deck-Were Taken Off BY Another
Bark-The Steward Dead From Expo
sure.
1t will be rememb ered that the bark j.
H. Hamlin. owned by J. H. Hamlin &
Son, of this city, was abandoned at sea
last June in water-logged condition,
that she was towed to Bermuda, and
that later the news came that the crew
had arrived at st. Thomas, in the Danish
West Indies, on board German steamer.
In the first dispatches in regard to the
disaster there was intimation that Capt.
Godfrey abandoned the bark before there
was any sufficient need for it. 1t was
also stated that he set the vessel on fire.
Capt. Godfrey is now in this city.
The true story of the catastrophe is as
follows:
On the night of the 14th of June dur
ing heavy storm the bark, it is sup
posed, ran into some wreckage and stove
a -lole in her side. She was bound from
New York to Demarara with lumber, it
will be remem bered.
She began to fill rapidly, and in five
hours was waterlogged. She soon lost
her deck load of lumber, but did not
founder, owing no doubt to the nature
of her cargo. In this disabled and dam
gerous condition the bark struggled in
the heavy seas for four days, the crew
being obliged finally to cling for life to
the wave-washed decks the bark being
unmanageable in the trough of the sea.
One the 18th the bark Dom Pedro I'd of
Baltimore was sighted. She rescued the
almost discouraged crew, and as the
that time, the captain of the Dom Pedro
deemed the vessel a wreck, dangerous to
navigators, and sent boat of sailors to
endeavor to set her afre. But they were
able to burn but small portion of the
house.
The Dom Pedro was bound to far
distant port. and soon transferred the
crew of the abandoned bark to another
vessel bound for Europe She in turn
transferred them to German steamer
that carried them to St. Thomas. AS
was stated at the time, the j. H. Hamlin
was picked up and towed to the Bermu-
das, where she is now undergoing re-
pairs.
On the way to St. Thomas the steward
of the bark died from the effects of the
terrible exposure, during the four days
on the water-logged vessel.

THE BRAZILIAN RECIPROCITY.
It's Abrogation Will Not Work Material
Harm to American Interests

WASHINGTON. September 27.-The de-
partment of state has received formal
notification from NJ. Mendenca h Bra
lillian minister of the abrOgatlon. OF
the reciprocity arrangement existing
between the United States and his own
country. to take effect January 1st.
The recent tariff law abrogateS all the
reciprocity treaties without any notices.,
but the government of Brazil has seen
fit to give the full three months notice,
and therefore, although Brazilian
sugar coffee, molasses and hides have
not been admitted free to the country
since the recent tariff bill became a
law, all the advantages on manufac-
tured iron goods. railroad supplies and
the agricultural products entering Bra
iii from the United States will continue
in force until the end of the present
yeaT.
1t is claimed that while the Brazilian
reciprocity has been advantageous to
Brazilian sugar producers its abrOga-
ton will not work any material harm
to American interests in Brazil, as the
free wool of the new tariff will create
considerable trade between the two
countries and the slight increase OF
duty against those articles which were
affected by the expiring arrangement
will not materially diminish their eX-
port from the United States.
