He who sees a setback in business at
this time, says Dua's RerieW of last
Saturday, must be gazing through a
telescope pointed by mistake at some
other country. From all parts OF the
United States, the best advices obtain
able tell of a rising tide of trade and
industry. which threatens here and
there to mount too far and too fast.
The volume of all business is by no
means equal to that of 1892 As yet,
though in some important branches
larger than in that of any other year.
Daily payments through clearing
houses in June are 26.9 per cent. larg-
er than last year, though Sc per cent.
smaller than in 1892, the last year of
full business at this season.
A rise of more than a quarter in a
single year is the more significant be-
cause, in spite of recent advances, the
prices of commodities as a whole
average a fraction of one per cent.
lower than year ago. Two influ-
ences of tremendous power contribute
to the rise, encouraging crop news
and confident replenishing of stocks
which have been for two years de-
pleted to the utmost.
When business payments have so
long been 900 millions yearly less
than before, it is not strange that the
increase should be at the rate of
II 900 millions year when faith in the
future inspires general replenishment
of stocks.

FLOWERY JUNE.
The Woods, Fields and Swamps Re
veal New Beauties.
Written for THE AMERICAN

We speak OF the "lesfy month of June
as the time when the trees are wearing
their freshest foliage; but we might, with
equal propriety, designate it as fiowerS
June, for there is such a profusion OF
flowers that it seems as il no other time
OF year colld furnish the variety that il
now offered.
There is now opportunity for collecting
and comparing the different flowers OF
the same family, and noting the common
characteristics. This is particularly in
teresting where several varieties are in
blossom at the same time.
June /, l found the bright yellow bios
som of the trailing vine which borders
our roadsides, and is commonly known
as the five finger or cinquefoil; this name
is from the form OF the leaves, five long,
green, leaflets radisting from a common
point; but the Latin name of the family
is potentiUa, because it was formerly
thought to possess powerful medicinal
properties.
There are foar other species OF this
plant which have found in this vicinity.
and there may be many more; one OF
these is the siirery cinquefoil, a low,
spreading plant. which grows upon
lodges, the leaves OF which are covered
with fine, white hairs that give il sill
very appearance. Another interesting
member OF this family is TO be found
on our river banks, in places even com
pletely submerged. The underside of
the leaves is covered with a thick coat
of silky down which give the name OF
siirer freed to this plant.
A bout this time we find the first OF
those curious plants known TO us by the
name OF Jaek-inthe- pulpit. The shape
OF the root, and the fact that it was used
as an article OF food by the Indians, gave
il anot her name, Indian turnip.
The wild Gala, which can now be found
the Jacks" and one of our most SNOWY
wild flowers; the blossom is like the
cultivated Gala with which we are
familiar, but smaller and lacking its de-
licious fragrance.
All swamps are very attractive now, for
be found in them. The curious little
drosera, or sundew, though not in bios
som, has its leaves spread to catch any
unwary insect that may alight upon il,
the leaves are covered with long, hairy
glands, which secrete a sticky liquid that
holds any small fiy that may alight, and
the outer glands at once turn inward and
help secure TIE prey.
In the swamp. too, we find the common
blue flag, or IRIS, which is none the less
beautiful for being abundant. The
lade, slipper, one OF our loyeiiest or
chid-, grows not far off, and some rarie-
ties are only found in deep swamps. The
little speedwell, too, hourishes III damp

nl.e- Isall- Manners

base 1Sall Manners.
The season OF 1890 has thus far
shown Hancock county TO be possess
ed of several base ball teams of ex-
ceptional strength. Probably not for
many Years has Ellsworth had so
good Z. team Is al present. Franklin.
Bucksport and Bar Harbor have good
teams West sullivan enters the arena
for the first time this week, and Sor-
rento will probably follow very soon.
Cherrs field, though not in this coun-
ty, may properly be included III the
Hancock county group.
Universal interest is being taken
this year in the national game in this
vicinity. Local pride has furnished in
several towns far better grounds than
are commonly found in the country.
In one teWn where there is
Nc - la2al nine, the agricultural
society of that place has laid out an
unusually good ground, which is used
by visiting teams.
With all the interest that is being
shown in this most exhilarating game,
there is beng developed feature
that viii seriously neutralze if it does
not totally destroy the enjoyment of
the game, and perhaps the game it
self We refer to the 'guying' or
roasting of visiting club by the
spectators.
Naturally the sympathy of a crowd
is with the home team, and naturally
it will express approval or disapproyal
of plays or decisions in a more or less
emphatic manner But the demon
stration By the crowd does not stop
here: it Is, after sufficient allowance
is MADE for the excitement that at
tends close rlaying. carried far be-
yond, until i reaches the point of
positive abuse of the men who are
playing for the crowds amusement
and whose guests they are.
At Ellsworth, at Bucksport, at Bar
Harbor and at Franklin exhibitions of
this sort have been given this year,
greatly to the detriment of the game.
and greatly 10 the disgust OF many
lovers of the game who paid their
money to see an exhibition OF ball
playing and not to listen to TRADES of
abuse. TO insults. and in many cases to
indecent language.
No such outrageous proceedings are

firemen's contests or other sports, and
they should not accompany base ball.
For the most part the players them
SELVES are behaved; the evil
which We are deerying is confined al
most wholly 10 the spectators.
Now and then a player by a word or
act lays himself open to good -natured
guying, and he must expect it, but to
subject each member of visiting
team to the indignities he now too Of
ten is compelled TO submit to- is un-
manly, and utterly without excuse.
We sincerely hope that for the rest
OF the season exhibitions of such I'M
seemly character as have been wit
messed in several towns in this county
this year, will not be repeated. Let Us
have decent bail, or no bali at al.
