Tappan Adncy, in st. Nicholas, tells
the story of bear cub, captured by a
bacllwoodsman named Ben Lawson,
and saved as pet for his children.
Ben's little girl, about eight years
old, took fancy to the young orphan,
and called him Billy" Billy looked
like big Newfoundland pup, black
and shaggy, but with a tail conspicu-
Gus by being ''hardly tail at all as
Ben said. He was as playful as young
dog or kitten, and used to romp on the
floor with the children, hugging them
and pretending to bite them.
But the good woman of the house
viewed the little fellow with suspicion,
and was not easily persuaded that ali
bears were not equally dangerous 1t
was plain from the first that even a
baby cub was hardly welcome. So

pected that liquors intended for sale
might be concealed, for the seizure and
confiscaton of the goods. and for severe
penalties of fine and Imprisonment to
those keeping them. |The law as passed
by the legislature was precisely as it
came from his pen, and the most per-
slstent efforts since made to impeach its
validity have proved unsuccessful.
When the war broke out Mr.. Dow was
chosen colonel of The Thirteenth regi-
meut of Maine volunteers, and assigned
to Gen. Buffers command at New Or
leans. In April, 1862, he was commits
stoned brigadier general. and placed
In command of the forts at the mouth of
the Mississippi, afterwards being trans
ferred to the command of the district of
Florida He was twice wounded in the
attack on Port Hudson, and taken pris-
oner while lying in house near by.
He suffered the hardships of confine-
ineEt III Libby prison. but was subSe-
quently transferred to Mobile. where he
was exchanged. Iii health, caused by
the hardShips he had undergone, COM
PEELED him to resign in the latter part
of 1864.
Gen. Dow made three Journeys to
England Oh behalf of the temperance
cause, speaking throughout the country
under the auspices of the United King
dom Temperance alliance. He was
meantime untirng in his efforts to pro-
mote by all Legitimate means the cause
of prohibition. In 1880 he became the
first candidate of the Prohibition party
for president of the United States. His
entire vote was but 1913 The vote
polled by his party i'm 1892 was 262, 904.
His last public act in behalf of the
cause to which he had devoted SO much
OF his llfe'S effort was the procuring of
the adoption of an amendment to the
constitution of Maine which forever pro-
hiblts the manufacture or sale of intox-
lcatng liquors In the state. This was
adopted in 1854. and is now part of the
organic law of the state.
We cannot withhold from such a man
the tribute that is due to honesty aud
consistency, wherever found. Gen.
Dow may have been the advocate of a
mistaken policy all his life. The great
mass of the people believe that he has
been fanatical, yet they respect him for
his fanaticism because they believe he
is actuated by sincere desire to bene.
tit his fellow men. And so men of all
classes. the advocates of personal liberty
as well as the disciples of restriction,
will join in congratUlating the father of
prohibition i'll the United States upon
having attained the goodiy age of four
score yea rs and ten.

FOUR-sCORE YEARS AND TEN.

All mankind honorS brave, con-
sistent and an honest man, whether the
cause IN which he may be enlisted meet
many regard prohibition as cause
fraught with danger to the community,
and its adoption as fatal to the continu-
ance of personal liberty, they all enter
tain high personal regard for the dis
tlnguiShed father of the movement,
Gen. Neal Dow, who tomorrow will
celebrate his nlnetieth birthday. We
may pay honor to Gen. Dow for his
bravery and sincerity without approx
ing of the cause in which he is enlisted; ;
we can praise the individual without
indOrsing all of his acts.
And surely Gen. Dow has had a dis
tinguished and honorable career. He
was descended from good old Quaker
stock, and received his early training
and education at the Friends schools.
But he shook off the restraints of the
sect. and in early life became a member
of the fire department. 1t Is said that
when he run wild der machine" he W as
lone of the boys" in the fullest accep-
tation of this phraSe-was a leader in
their madcap adventures and partici-
pant in all their sports. He became the
chief Of the fire department in Port
land, and here learned to appreciate the
evils of indulgence in intoxicating
liquors. This habit was the greatest
obstacle to the efficiency of the men
under his charge. He was elected
mayor, and then began his crusade for
prohibition. lie sent petitions in favor
of prohibltory law to the legislature,
and himself went to the capital to urge
It's adoption. 1t was in 1851 that he
finally succeeded, and the Maine LIQUOR
law was enacted. He had submitted
the measure to prominent friends of
temperance, but they had predicted its
defeat on account of its drastic charac-
ter. He had made up his mind that he
was right. however, and undertook
and accomplished his purpose SINGLE

THE WRITING oFLETTERs

There are letters and letters. of

or woman of letters in these DAYS of
cheap postage, fast mails and type
writers; and, unless one dies penniless.
no matter how letterless life may have
been or how letterful. letters tesla
mentary or of administration follow his
departure-a sort. of post-mortem liter
airy effort, and, probably, survival in
nomenclature OF the days when courts
were the creatures of the sovereigus, and
Initiated their massive dignity in til cir
communications.
Everybody writes letters. Some, like
dunnlng letters. are torn up unopened.
II card on the envelope shows it's
source; and others the writer's come to
wish they had torn up before sending,
like those OF indiscreet politicians bit

malice reads them to the jury to whose
sympathetic hearts the ex-inamorata

there is nothing more i'll them than Mr..
