A RAILROAD DEAL
Being Discussed to Connec! the Wiscasset &
Quebec With Other Roads.

WATERviLLE, Oct. 7.-(Special. 1T is
currently reported that movement is on
foot which if consummated will make lively
work on the Wiscasset & Quebec Railroad.
A stockholders meeting of this road has
been called at Wiscasset, Oct. H. at which
meeting proposition will be msde by a
strong banking house of Boston, which, if
accepted, will secure the road as trunk
lire through Central Maine to the c. Z. X,
and Lake Onway.
By the deal it is agreed by the manage
ment of the Wiscasset & Quebec Railroad
that the link from Burnham to Pittstield
shall be at once graded 20 the guage of the
Sebasticook & Moosehead Railroad mar
rowed up and trains to be running this win
ter from Hartiand to Wiscssset.
In this deal the branch from Hartlsnd to
Athens and Msytield is assured, and the
liberal subscriptions for stock in the Water
vile & Wiscasset railroad makes that line a
sure thing.
The Wiscasset & Quebec railroad is now
laying IA miles of track each day, and
trains now run from Wiscasset to Alma and
in the near future will reach Weeks Mills.
Rumor has it that the Somerset Railroad
will be changed from Oakland to this city
to connect with the Waterville & Wiscasset
railroad, then the two companies to join
issues and complete the 1S-mile link now
unfinished from Bingham to the Bangor &
Aroostook road.

Gov. Curtin Died Sunday Morning.

BELLEroNrE, Pa. Oct. Hon. Andrew
Gregg Curtin, the old war Governor of
Pennsylvania, died this morning at 3. His
death was painless and calm, the last vital
spark going out after sleep of II hours.
During part of yesterday the Governor
would at times become deliiious, imagining
there was something be had promised to do
and had not yet done and he begged to be
allowed to get up and do it. TO quiet his
nervous system it was necessary to give an
opiate and under its Influence he sank into
a quiet sleep about in the afternoon from
which he never awoke.
His wonderful vitality prolonged the final
dissolution until 3 this morning. When he
breathed his last he was surrounded by the
immediate members of his family, consist
ing of his aged wife, his three daughters
and his son. There is genuine sorrow in
Bellefonte over the Governors death. TBe
funeral is set for Wednesday afternoon a,
2 o'clock, the interment to be msde in
L Union cemetery, this place. Telegrams of
coincidence were received from Governor
Pattison and Col. Mcclure, editor of the
Philadelphia Times, and both have siguitied
their intention of attending the funeral.

ball. On the first kick Colby made 90
yard gain, which they followed up With con-
tinual tiveyard or more gains, forcing the
hall, mostly by end plays, down past Ken.s
Hills goal, in 3 l-2 minutes. Dyer's
tumble gave the visitors the ball
with an advantage of 35 yards
and they finished the distance to the Colby's
goal by constant breaks through the center
making coed gains every time until Haley
scored touchdown, from which Adams
failed in his attempt to kick goal. Then
Colby by Jordan's run and Patterson's
sprint together with several end plays
forced the ball down to within one yard of
ken.s Hills goal. Here an end play was
attempted v hen Dyer again fumbled and
lost the ball is. before time was called.
Here a mistake was undoubtedly made as
center push must have forced the ball over
the line with no favorable chance for
tumble. Score, Colby, 6 Kents Hill, 3.
1t looked again as though Colby was
sure of scoring 10 the beginning of the sec
ond half after keuts Hill had lost the ball
on downs when Jordan made a fine sprint
of 20 yards, but then dropped the ball
which was secured by Stafford who made u
handsome run down the field, outstripping
every interferer, for touchdown which
he followed up by splendid kick for goal.
Colby then forced the ball down the field
for another touchdown just as time was
called, but Jordan failed in his attempt to
kick goal.
The following is the line up and score:
