SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying.
[BY Col. JAS. P. NEwCoMB.

A we'll signed protest against the
proposed issue of $4,000 county
bonds for bridges. sets forth the
distressed condition of our COM
munity, but while the protest is
being passed about, the county
authorities are going right ahead
to issue the bonds.
No doubt the bridges are needed
to improve our country roads and
make them more passable for the
country people, and, no doubt, the
expenditure of this sum of money
will partially benefit the people by
giving labor to a few who need it,
but it is no solution of the dull
times.
Could a portion of this amount
be used to put down experimental
artesian wells, as incidental to the
work upon our county roads, the
money would be well and profit
ably expended. But there is sus-
picion that the 100000 Is intended
for campaign fund, and that ar
tesian we'll work would not multi
ply voters.
Any proposition to issue bonds
at this time will be opposed, on
the ground that the county author
tiles are providing campaign sup
plies, whether such is the case or
not. Any proposition that in
creases the burden Of the taxpayers
at this time,will meet with serious
opposition.
But after all the solution Of our
troubles does not lie in this direc-
ton; the increase of our bonded
debt would not affect our business
or be detrimental to our prosperity
|
1t is a strange thing that our
capitalists, / mean our bankers,
merchants and landlords, do so
little thinking. Our bankers with
well filled money vaults look out
upon the moving throng and shake
their heads ominously; they won't
turn their money loose because the
outlook looks blue. Our mer.
chants crack their heels together
as they sit on their counters and
swear at the dull business and
wonder what has become Of all
their old cash customers. The
landlords OF the 500 vacant
houses are at a loss to account fol
the absence of renters. But there
is solution and reasonable one
for the woes of our hitherto chill
dren OF fortune. 1t can be found
in the analysis Of what keeps Sar
Antonio up, and what is needed Il
run successfully our $4,000 popula
ton.

The ChinpanZee.

am quite satisfied that tho chimpan-
zee is menG.lly the nearest thing to man
in the whole animal kingdom. His speech,
vocal powers, traits, habits and modes of
life all conspirc to confirm this belief In
consequence of these facts | devoted more
attention to the study of the chimpanzee
than to the GORILLA l saw more wild go
rillas in the 5ush than | did chimpanzees,
but of the latter | saw much greater
number in captivity.
The gorilla is shy, savage and unsocia-
bic. He loves life of scclusion, and even
in captivity refuses to become either
friendly or submissive. The chimpanzee,
ON the other hand has many social traits,
readily becomes attached to man and lives
about the town without being i'll any Way
confined and is on friendly terms with all
its inhabitants.
In fact, in many instances he acts more
like II citizen of the town than he docs
like pct Animal He sits about on the
seats, has access to the houses and par
takes of the food of the people of the vii
lagc This is especially true at the trad
ing stations, where white men have them
in captivity All of these things indicate
IA degree of intelligence which is not ap
preached by the gorilla, and while the
opinion of native is not to be regarded
as final the consensus of opinion through
out a wide range of country occupied by
these apes may be trusted as fair state
ment of the facts.-R. l.. Garner.

about two weeks ago Senator Hale re
Winkumpau He said that Branch pond
Was practically controlled by the Nicolin
club, and the members did not want the
eggs or trout carried away. ! said that
had no authority N the matter, but
would refer it to the department at
Washington, and III the meantime would
take no trout or eggs.
"a few days later MIR. Hale sent for me
to come and see him. He said he had

ENEMIES OF THE OYSTER.
Starnsh 'I:'' ::'','n',e Of HivaIves Ev-
cry Year by Eating the Spawn.

cry Year by Eating the spawn.
The starllsA is one of the greatest pests
with which the oystcrmen have to deal.
One of these beautiful creatures will de-
stroy many thousands Of oysters during
the spawning season. 1t is the worst enc
my these popular hivalves have to contend
with. From the number which are taken
from an oyster bed by some of the modern
appliances for destroying them it would
seem that they are as numerous as the
seemingly five pointed worlds which shine
on the top of the water on clear summer
night.
They hover about the oyster beds In
June, July and August in schools, droves,
myriads or any collective noun which ex-
presses the largest number. They eat the
young oysters, or spawn, after 1t is depos-
tied on the old shells, which are planted
every summer. and sometimes almost de-
stroy the whole bed when left to them
selves.
For years the oystermen have been try
Ing to find some method of destroying the
starfish without in uring the oysters. They
formerly went through the beds with an
oyster rake and caught good many in
that way. But that method was extreme
ly injurious to the oysters 1t disturbed
the spawn on the shells and killed many
of the young oysters.
OF late years another method has been
used. An instrument much resembling
huge mop is constructed for this work.
The mops are sometimes Is or 90 feet
wide. They are made of cotton strings,
loosely coiled. This is drawn over the oys-
ter bed so that the strings drag over the
oysters. 1t does not disturb the young BIZ
valves, but it makes q trap from which
the starfish find it difficult to escape. The
starfish are covered with sharp hooks, or
barbS, which are so small that they can
scarcely be seen. They can be felt, how
ever, if one is taken in q persons hand.
These barbs catch III the strings of the
mop and the fish cannot disentangle them
selves.
The mop is drawn up every few minutes
and dumped into Il caldron of boiling
water. The startsh are killed and cooked
all at the same time, but as they are unfit
for eating purposes the cooking is unnec-
cssary Whom the caldron is SO full that
no more can be put in it, the fish arc
dumped back in the ocean again. Millions
of starfish are destroyed in this way every
year, and yet they seem just as numerous
as evcr-Ncw York Tribune.

INTERNAL LIE!"
SAYS SUPT. ROBINSON OF TIE
CHARGES MADE AGAINST HIM.
GAME WARDEN ATWOOD, HE SAYS,
DID NOT EAT SALMON AT HIS TABLE
OFT OF SEASON.

to the charges made against him recently,
and which, it was reported, were to be in
vestigated
The substance OF these charges was pub
lished in THE AMERICAN two weeks ago,
and last week, over his signature, Supt.
Robinson made brief but emphatic de-
NAL, and issued challenge to any one to
come forward and prove his statement
false.
As an introduction to the interview
published below, brief review OF the
charges and the causes which led up to
them Is necessary.
Some time ago it was reported to the
State fish and game commissioners that
Supt. Robinson was supplying his table
with salmon out of season. The com
mssioners decided to investigate the
charges, and decide whether the State OF
Maine had right to protect its fish in
close time to the extent of prohibiting
officers of the United States fish commits
sion from catching them out OF season.
ATWOOD INVESTIGATES.
The State commissioners sent Game
Warden Ben Atwood, of Winterport, to
investigate the charges at the. Green Lake
hatchery. The story as published went
on to say that it did no: take Mr.. Atwood
long to find out all he wanted to know.
He had salmon for dinner al Supt. Robin
sons house Saturday, and Sunday, thanks
to Supt. Eobinson's generosity, he had
salmon for dinner At his home in Winter
port.

All day one continuous round of pleas urable sports are pursued, foot-racing, horse-racing and innocent games are participated in by both old and young, and at night grand ball concludes the whole.
 The Mormon citizens on the south side celebrated yesterday according to the time honored custom. The beau tlful town was bedected in gold colors, business was suspended and the people assembled at the bowery with band of music, the church choir and num- Der of speakers. The principal address was delivered by that excellent citizen the Hon. c. R. flakes.
