Monday night the Maine Central re-
ceived, at the repair shops in this city, the
first two of a very large order of locomo-
tives from the Schenectady Locomotive
Works, Schenectady, N. Y. 1t is under
stood that the whole order calls for %
locomotives. The two which arrived Mon
day night were, like all others which the
road are now using from the same COM
pany's works, first-class machines in every
particular. They are of the "MoguP' pat
tern, with cylinders l9x2G inches in size,
and are probably to be placed in the
freight service of the road. There are two
of the engines now in Portland, and the
others of the order will be received in the
next few weeks. The two at the shops
now are numbered 1913 and l54.

a new conner to the list, and is also Nelson's
first 2.20 performer for the season. She
was purchased of p. II. Reed, Esq, of Fort
Fairfield, last winter, and was from daugh-
ter of Old Abe by the Drew horse if we
have been correctly informed. This daugh-
ter of Old Abe is said to be a sister of

regarded as the flower of the Bayard Wilkes

on the miniature track as yesrling and
was literally entered in stakes, but last
spring she concluded to go the lateral gait,
and as this cut her off from her engage
ments, she was turned out and last Thursday
she was found in the pasture so badly injured
that she had to be destroyed.
The fatality among horses in Calai, AMI
vicinity has become noticeable. No special
epidemic appears to exist, but from various
ailments, fine animals are dropping of with
startling frequency. Martin Cone lost
fine driver, from some acute disorder,
short time ago, and Saturday lost another.
The day following L, q. Wilson lost a val

the second one he had lost this simmer, the
other being four-year-old Olympus OF

Monday afternoon, boy went to Hills
stable, on Temple street, and wanted
team, as he said, to drive for half an hour
or so. Mr.. Hill had horse harnessed at
the time, and supposing the boy to be all
right, let him have the team. Night came
on, and the boy did not chow up, SO search
was commenced. Deputy Sheriff j. P. Hill
found that the boy came from Richmond and
Tuesday morning, he took the train for that
place. He found that the boys name was
Willie Kinwell and that he had been work
ing for the summer on farm. about four
miles from the village. Here he found that
the boy, on Sunday, while the folks were
away at campmeetlpg, attired himself in his
best clothes, broke open trunk and took
50 in money, went to Iceborc and bought
ticket for Waterville. AS Kinwell was
but IA years old, Mr.. Hill was confident
that that no one would purchase the team
from him, and that in time both would
show up, so he returned to this city, Tues
day night, after having left word with the
officers at Richmond to keep look out for
the boy. Mr.. Hill was gong to the post
office about . o'clock last evening with lot
of cards which he was sending to the Off
GERS and stable keepers in the county, when
telegram from the deputy sheriff at
Richmond was placed in his hands, saying
that he had the boy under arrest.

Case that Attracted Wide

MRS. ADELiNE MuNsoN,
Who Resides in Meddybemps.
Maine,' Declares

For many years past have been afflicted
with general debility, sleeplessness, and
numbness in my hands and feet, caused BY
poor circulation and impure blood. Was at
times affected with headache, dizziness. and
severe vomiting, as my food would not d.
gest properly. In later years my Ferrous
system seemed to give out entirely, and
a general paralytic-like numbness came
over me. have tried numerous kinds of
sarsaparillas without obtaining any benefit
from them. They not only proved value
less, but believe actually harmed me; my
stomach could not retain them, and grew
steadily worse.
About year ago, heard of the Red
Seal Sarsaparilla, that was said TO be pre-
pared by an entirely new and thoroughly
scientific method, whereby certain poison
Gus principle, very harmful to the diges-
tive organs, and which is brought out in
some process, was entirely eliminated.
found great relief in the first few doses
of the Red Seal Sarssparilia, and after tax
ing three bottles found myself entirely
cured, and, although "a years of age, feel
stronger and younger today than have for
many years past.
l believe the Red Seal Sarsaparilla TO
he the best medicine of its kind and strongly
recommend it to all who wish for speedy
cure. will cheerfully give full details of
my case to all who wish for further par
liculars.

BOTTLE TRICKS WORTH KNOWING
What to Do In the Lack OF . COrkscrew
When OFF Picnicking.


During this season of picnics and open
air lunches, not to mention many ordi-
nary occasions, the corkscrew is often con-
spicuous by it's absence just when most
needed. The New York Sun describes a
way around the difficulty thus created in
a trick worth knowing for taking off the
heads of bottles: You are pretty sure to
have at hand table knife or good sized
pocketknife. The case knife is to be pre-
ferred. Grasp the beer bottle in the left
hand and the knife in the right hand.
Lay the bottle on your knee and draw the
knife vigorously across the neck of the
bottle, just back of the rim that incloses
the cork, just as if you were going to saw
the head off the bottle. You will not, of
course, be able to cut the head off the bot
tie, but if you bear on pretty hard and
turn the bottle around gradually until
every part of the neck has been under the
knifes edge you will scratch the enamel
of the glass all around. This is the pur-
pose of the saving.
When this is accomplished, lay the knife
blade flatwise on the bottle, and with the
back of the blade strike the bottle rim
two or three sharp blows lengthwise of the
bottle, as if you would knock the head Off.
Presently you will hear it break under the
blows, and it will break just on the line of
tho scratches on the enamel
The cork in an ale bottle extends be
low the break and holds the head on. Put
a napkin over the head and draw the cork
Head and all will come off as clean as a
whistle. You need fear no chips of broken
glass if the saving has been well done
The old bottle man will not thank you for
the trick, but you will not need to worry
about corkscrew when you have acquir-
ptl it

Notwithstanding the great excitement in
our city, Monday evening, enough members
of the city government were present at the
meeting to transact the regular monthly
business. The usual sewerage talk occu-
pied considerable valuable time, q conven-
ton of both boards being held for this pur-
pose. Another $1,000 was necessary to COM
plete the Spring street sewer so that it should
include Highland avenue and Autumn
street, but the committee adjourned without
any definite result. In the common coun-
Gil the Joint standing committee on street
lights reported favorably on the petition
for a light at the junction of Spring and
Plaisted streets, which was accepted and
sent up for concurrence. A petition was
received asking for new street in South
Gardiner from the overhead bridge running
west to the land of j. L. Fogg. The matter
was referred to the proper committee and
sent up for concurrence. c. s. jackson

HOW TO COOK WATER.
Don't Set the Kettle Boiling With Rem
nant of Yesterdays Supply In It.

nant of Yesterdays Supply In 1t.
Few people know how to cook water.
The secret is in putting good, fresh water
into a neat kettle, already quite warm,
and setting the water to boiling quickly,
and then taking it right off to use in tea,
coffee or other drinks, before it is spoiled.
To let it steam, simmer and evaporate I'M
til the good water is all in the atmosphere,
and the lime and iron and dregs left in
the kettle-bah, that is what makes good
many people sick and is worse than no
water at all!
A critical taste will detect at the first
mouthful, if the nose has not already de-
INJURED and given warning, the faintest
trace of dead water in tea, coffee, porrldge
and many other items designed for the
stomach.
More frequently than otherwise the
breakfast kettle is set boiling with rem
nant of yesterdays supply in it. The cof-
fee urn has been neither washed, dried,
summed nor aired. Possibly in the inter
est of rigid and mistaken economy some
of yesterdays coffee is also boiled over, !"
and the partakers wonder at their lassi-
tude and dyspeptic conditions. Whatever
is neglected, the teakettle and its associate
pots should be thoroughly cleansed, dried
and aired every day, and in no case
should water that has stood over an hour
in pitcher, pail or kettle be used for cook
ing.
If people will drink tea and coffee, let
them at least have it as nearly free from
poisonous conditions as possible. That
much benefit may be derived by many PEG
pie from drinking hot water is not disput-
ed, but the water should be freshly drawn,
quickly boiled in clean and perfect ves-
sci and Immediately used. The times of
using, the adding Of milk, mint, lemon
or other fruit juices, is matter of pref
erence or special prescription, says q lady
physician who gives this advice about
cooking water.

evening. The full board was present with
the exception of Mr.. Shaw, who is i'll, and
Mr. Philbrook, who was out of town. Ger
tain text books we're adopted for use in the

1t is the fault of her condition which
makes happiness impossible.
No woman can be happy and light
hearted when painful female complaints
crush out her life.
If she is melancholy, excitable, nervous,
