could find no fault with it. This is the highest
praise the newIaw could receive. and while it has
not been tried in state and general election we
think that it will give satisfaction to everyone;
at any rate it so much better than the box
with which we we're formerly az
hicted that the change is sure to be agreeable.

THE Florida Fruit Exchange, it seems,
has o idea of going out of business, and the
Exchange is right. While the business it will
transact during the next few years will be in
fnitesima1, it can hold together and save the
work OF reorganizing when the orange crop OF
Florida again reaches high point. 1t required
many years of hard work to bring the Exchange
up to the point it had reached in the winter OF
1s94-95. and it is much better to stick together
and retain the organization that to abolish it
and have to start over when the Organization is
needed.

A Mr.. CORNELL, of Kissimmee, who
cultivated broom corn for a number of years in
illinois. has been experimenting with the crop
In Florida, and results show that the corn, on
good land, will do as we'll here as anywhere. He
estimates that his crop this year will yield him
on an average OF about seventy dollars per acre.
Kissimmee for some time has had broom
which made brooms, and good ones too,
from the wire grass. 1t is likely than when good
corn can be produced at the door of the factory
that it will be utilized in the making of the
brooms instead of wire grass.

THE new game law passed by the last
legislature makes it a misdemeanor for person
to expose for sale or have in his possession any
venison il. any county in the State outside of the
county in which it is killed or caught. The
county commissioners of each county re-
quired to designate eight months in the year in
which deer shall not be killed or caught. The
quail season ia declared to be from the first of
November to the Is of March. 1t is made mis-
demeanor to ship deer, wild turkeys quail out
of county in which it is killed, and the law
further provides that it shall be unlawful for any
one person to kill more than four wild turkeys
or twenty five quail in any one day, and that
no party of hunters shall kill more than two
hundred and fifty quail in a single day.

THE grape harvest of Florida is about

grapes have already commenced to go forward.
The crop is reported to be an abundant one. and
as Florida grapes reach the markets of the

sections we see reason why fancy prices can.

system of some kind in marketing grapes as

necessary to organize some sort of an association

Disappearance of Houlton
Business Man,

absence of Mr. Waldo G. Brown of this
place is common cling to excite much in
terest among the citizens. Mr.. Brown
has been for some ears one of the most
active business men of the place and was
proprietor of the Houlton Foundry and
Machine works. This is the most ex-
tensive plant of the sort in Aroostook
county. occupying extensive buildings,
and having a large number of employees.
A few weeks ago Mr. Brown went into
northern Aroostook on business tri p,
not making preparation for an extended
absence. From Van buren he wrote tc
his family that he had decided to leave
the country and babe them an affection

The last person to recognize Mr.. Brown
was railroad man who saw him leave
the train at Quebec. No news has since
been received from him, at least nothing
that has been made public by his friends

Mr.. Brown, and caused him to take this
hasty and unfortunate step. Work has

Of all cases of consumption can, if taken in
the earlier stages of the disease, be cured.
This may seem like bold assertion to
those familiar only with the means gener-
liver oil and its filthy enuls1ons, extract
of malt, whiskey, different preparations of
hypophosphites and such like balIiatlges.
Although by many believed to be incura-
Bile, there is the evidence of hundreds of
living witnesses to the fact that, in all its
earlier stages, consumption is a durable
disease. Not every case, but a large per-
centage of cases, and we believe, Jnlly 90
per cent. are cured by DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed SO far as to induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with copious expectoration (includ-
ing tubercular natter, great loss of flesh
and extreme emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery" were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess that

liver oil and its filthy " emulsions" and
mixtures had been tried in nearly all these

statement before the House of Commons
last evening: "These recriminations are
unfounded. We do not admit Frances
silence as TO England's claims to the Up.
per Nile region meant consent.
France is no party to England's treaty
with Germany and Italy, in which these
claims were admitted. We must object
to Sir Edward Grey's confounding of
the British aud Egyptian rights. The
Khedive in the eyes of France, is the
sole and legitimate chief under the Sui

we have any expedition to the Upper
Nile region, but we do know that France
under all circumstances will recognize
the Porte's and Egypt's rights to the

OBITUARY.
William e. Morton.

William E. Morton, the well known
Congress street forrest, died yesterday of
complication of trou bles resulting in
heart failure. Mr.. Morton had been out
of health for some time, hut yesterday
morning he seemed to be better. A few
hours later he began to sink, and it was
then seen that there was no hope.
He was a son of Mr.. William Morton of
Deering, and was i'll business in this city
for many years. He made many friends
and was very much liked by all with
whom he was associated. Some ten
years ago he opened a branch store at
Bar Harbor, and from that time made
that the center of his business during
the summer months. Last fall, finding
that his health was failing, he went to
Florida to rest, but his active habits
would not allow him to keep still, and
he started store there, and for some
time was very successful. The sudden
cold weather of February in the south
probably caused his death. He took
cold and feeling that recovery was
doubtful he started for home, reaching
here the first of the present month Mr..
Morton was a member of the Seventh
Day Advent church His father, moth
er, wife and sister survive him.

PRoF. BISHOP cf London wa.

PROF. BISHOP Ct London was
the most violent of the present
century opponents of women
suffrage; one of his arguments
being that the average weight
of a mans brain was 1850
grains, while that of a woman
of the average was only 1900.
The professor died in 1892, and
when hisown brain was weigh
edit only tipped 1885 grains,
five grlins less than what he
had declared to be the female
average: The opponents of
woman suffrage should here
after weigh their own brains,
before deseanting upon wo-
mans scant allowance of the
same.

Louisville, Ky, April o.
Genaral T. A. Harris died at II
