He Wants a Concrete INSPECTOR.

1t has been reported that refused cement
has been used in the concrete of some of
the pavements. The city engineer will ask
for the employment of a concrete Inspector
whose duty it will be to see that the con-
crete used is properly mixed and the proper
materials used. A report that coal tar has
been freely used in the asphalt pavements
laid in this city is denied by the asphalt
companies. The engineer says that inspec-
ton would show whether, good material had
been used or not. He said that he proposed
to see that good material was used in all
paYements TO be laid this season.

These appointments will not go through

White says IL will probably be a week or
ten days before the new appointments are
made. The board may not appoint ten
more Democrats, as this would increase
the force to more than 120 men, which is
the number they had decided on. If ten
Democrats are not appointed the board will
probably let the matter of political adjust

Twelve Years in a State of Coma.

The Paris correspondent of the Lon don Chronicle telegraphs that woman named Marguerite Bouyenval, who fell into state of catalepsy on May ?, 1832, is still alive and asleep. Her parents refuse to allow her to be trans ferred to the Salpetriere. The story would be scarcely credible if not at tested by medical authority. Marguerite Bouyenval was delivered of male child, which died two days after it's birth. Suspicion was aroused, and a magistrate, accompanied by two gen. darmes, visited the cottage of the Bouyenvals at Thenelles, a village near 1t. Quentin. The girls fright was so bad that she had terrible fit of hysteria, followed by cataleptic coma, in which condition, notwithstanding the efforts of doctors and electricians, she has remained for more than twelve years. On such occasions she has noaned audibly. She is fed on milk and paptone, and removed once day from one bed to another In 1893 an American snowman offered a large sum to be allowed to take Margurite Bouyenval to the Chicago exposition. The parents at first agreed; but they were eventually dissuaded by the parish priest and local doctor.

STORED HIS GAME.
& Maine Hunter Who Had FIrst- Class
 CoId-Sto-age Vault.

A gentleman who was at work at the Howard slate quarry in Willimantic, or No. g. as it was then called, twenty-five years ago, says deer were as plenty then in the woods north of Sebec lake as anyone could ask for The slate company had large number of men employed and boarded them in camps, the same as lumbermen board their crews in the woods. To keep the camp supplied with fish and meat they kept a hunter employed every day. The supply never ran short, but some of his methods were peculiar He evidently kept fish on call in the winter season. On several occasions, the gentleman says, com pany came in from Bangor unexpected ly late in the evening. But they only had to say trout to Stone, the hunter, and he would start off in the woods to return in fifteen minutes with hand some string of fish, apparently just taken from the water. He would bring in deer in winter in much the same way.
 His manner of doing this, says the Chicago Times, the gentleman ex- plains, for he went with him once and learned the secret. He took the deer sled out to bring in the game, and the workman went along to help haul it. They did not go very far into the forest when they came to lot of ever green boughs heaped upon the snow. Here Stone stopped. Lifting the boughs he tipped the pile over, and the locker on, who wondered what he was up to, was scared nearly out of his senses when big buck bounded up out of the hole and fell flat on his side. His feet were tethered so he could not stand. Stone had caught him, tethered him and buried him alive under the brush and snow against future emer- gencies. This was his system of cold storage.

Fruit Growing Is Profitable.

We observe disposition on the part of some agricultural journals to dis courage fruit growing, especially planting apple orchards by farmers. From one point of view this may be right. It will not pay to plant fruit of any kind unless you give it continuous and intelligent care. Very often an orchard is planted, then left to shift for itself, in the expectation that it will come to profitable maturity. There could be no more mis taken idea. Orchards of any sort, carefully looked after, protected against insect enemies, are pretty sure to be a good investment. One point is perfectly ob- vious to all, that is, orchards add to the value of farms which contain them. Farmers Review
