Rev. Drew +. Wyman.

Mr.. Wyman, who is to conduct a series
OF special meetings in Ellsworth, is said
to be well-equipped for work. He is a
graduate OF Coburn classical institute,
Colby university and Newton theological
institution. For two years he was set
tied as pastor in Spencer, Mass, for nine
years at West Somerville, Mass, while
for two years and half he was in Lew
iston.
Since the fall OF 1893 he has assisted
very acceptably pastors and churches.
He is regarded as a good preacher, fine
singer and wise leader. At he time of
his resignation to enter upon the line Of
work in which he is now engaged the
Waterman, of Boston, said
"His past crates in Spencer and somer-
vile, Mass, as we'll as that in Lewiston,
have proved his eminent fitness for this
special form of work. He will be both
a safe and strong leader among the
churches which may secure his services"
An article in the Christian Secretary
OF Connecticut, written by Rev. G. NJ.
mans work in that place, includes the
following:
"In listening to Bro. Wyman, one is
first impressed with his evident sincerity
and clear views of Christian truth. He
presents truth in a way to produce con
viction, as the results of nearly every SER
vice here proved. His work is character
lied rather by the absence of methods,
than by any prevalence of them. With
out set arrangements he appears to follow
the dictates of sanctitied common sense
in the manner Of leading souls to express
their interest in Christ. 1t has seemed to
the writer, in observing Bro. Wyman g
work, that in the best sense he is led by
the Spirit of God"
In report by Rev. Geo. NJ. Howe,
pastor OF the Pine Street Congregational
church Of Lewiston, OF meetings held
some years ago by Mr.. jackson, it was
said: "Mr. Wyman possesses voice
which he uses with admirable taste.
There are few clergymen in the State
who possess a voice of such rare
purity and power" And with special
reference to one hymn Mr.. Howe
said; Gust before beginning his even
ing sermon, Mr.. Jackson requested Rev.
Mr.. Wyman to sing The Ninety and
Nine, which he did with fine effect One
rarely hears this old favorite sung more
satisfactorily than it has been by Mr..
Wyman during these meetings"
These are only few of the many strong
words of communication that have been
written in regard to Mr.. Wyman's work.

Horse Notes of Local Interest.


A. w. Ellis, of Ellsworth, was in
Bangor Thursday. Mr.. Ellis has bred
his fast mare, Lily Mac, by Electioneer, to
the fast son of Nelson, Selim. His horse
Bonny is being got into condition for
the early races.
Fred Osgood, the superintendent of the
Black farm at Ellsworth, owns a nice To-
hand bay horse with star, spot on nose,
and two white ankles behind. He calls
him Philip, and he made a record of 236
last season. He was foaled in 1890, by
Nelson's Wilkes; dam by Hambletonian
Knox, 2.2S, and it is thought no trick to
beat 2.30 with him this year-Bdngor
Commercial.
George Wescott, of Bar Harbor, lost a
valuable brood mare recently in an I'M
usual manner. She was about due to
foal, and box stall literally Uttered with
straw was prepared for her in the base
ment OF the stable. In a short time
smoke was seen issuing from her stall, and
the straw was found to be all ablaze. An
alarm was given and no further damage
was done except to destroy the mare,
whose legs were found to be literally
burned to a crisp. It is supposed that
there must have been a match in the
straw which she ignited by stepping
on it.
Hancock county has not, in years past,
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1895-04-11

been recognized as breeding centre to
the same extent that Kennebec and some
other of her sister counties have been.
When L. II. Greedy, of Ellsworth, bought
and stood Ham bletonian Knox, 2.28, by
Gilbreth Knox, 2.26 "a, dam by Gideon,
second dam the Clifford mare by Old Drew,
he found bat few good mares, a prime
necessity in making a reputation for any
horse. Yet to-day the impress of the
horse is seen and felt on all hands by the
horsemen of Hancock county. Almost
without exception, the get of Hamble-
tonian Knox are nice gentIemen's horses
and good sellers, and long list of those
of his get which have brought prices
from $500 to 81, 900 might be named. He
promises, however, to shine brightest in
the records as brood mare sire, where as
at present indicated, he will take high
rank in the years to come.-Turf, Farm

That Tired Feeling

al have been taking Hoods Sara
parilla for SIX months. Before l began
taking it had that tired feeling whn
l got up in the morning, also terrible
headache and my blood was very I'M
pure. Since have been taking Hoods
Sarsaparilla all that tired feeling =
gone, also the headache, and my blood
is pure again" WILLIAM GARDxER,

"I had a tired and drowsy feeling
and my nerves were in a bad con&-
ton and appetite was poor, so con-
cluded would take Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. After l had taken the second
bottle began to feel much better and

The Educational Associntion.

The regular meeting OF the Educa-
tional Association was held In Room
No. Of the school building. The at
tendance was good, all the teachers OF
the two boroughs, excepting two, being
present In addition to these a number
of other persons interested in educa-
tional work were present and gave
their names as members.
The program as rendered was in
structlve and entertaining the members
responding promptly. The object Of
the Association as given by the presi-
dent. Prof. G. X. Hawthorne, is to bene-
fit the patrons of the school, BY meet
ing and discussing professional subjects
the mind is broadened, new ideas are
gained and the instructor is more
thoroughly prepared for his work.
The Pollard system Of teaching Read
ing was approved and 1t is hoped 1t may
be introduced in our schools by the
time our next term begins.
The question OF Careless Teaching"
was ably handled, and no doubt resolu-
tions to be more watchful were made
by each member.
The meeting was favored by recita-
tion by Miss Tacy Dempsey.
The program was interspersed with
music, delightful feature of the even
ing. Miss Alice Doane presided at the
organ and was ably assisted In the sing
ing by the other members.
Because Of the freedom with which
the members responded, the question
box was great success. A number OF
interesting questions we're proposed and
discussed, but because OF lack OF time
for thorough discussion, several of these
will again be taken up. In order to
have more time the hour for meeting
will be changed from 7.30 to 100 o'clock.
The next regular meeting OF the
Association will be held Dec. 0, when
the following program will be carried
out: Music; ethical Instruction"

Popular Vote Does il.

The Republican committeeman of
Jefferson county met at Brookville on
Monday of this week in response to a
call from the county chairman, and
changed the method of nominating
candidate for the 37th Senatorial Dis
trict, which is composed of Jefferson
and Indiana counties. Heretofore 1t
was left in the hands of conferees when
each county elected man. Indiana
passed resolution some few weeks ago
to declare the man who received the
popular vote OF the two counties to be
the candidate for Senator in the district.
At the meeting in Brookville Monday
the resolution OF the Indiana committee
men was endorsed. This will do away
with conferences after the election.
A few changes were made in the
rules. Members of the election board
are to get $500 for the primary election
and each candidate is to contribute to
the fund to pay the election board.
The primaries will be held early in
May next year instead of in June on ac-
count of 1t being Presidential year and
delegates will have to be elected to the
National Convention.

"Passes Free" You Know.

One of the beauties and charms of an
editors life is his dead-heading II on all
occasions. No one who has never tasted
of the sweets Of that bliss can begin to
take in its glory and its happiness. He
does 5000 worth Of advertising for a rail-
road, gets ''pass" for year: rides s25
worth: and then he is looked upon as
dead-head or half-blown dead-beat. He
''puffs" concert troup $40 worth and
gets 81 in "complimentaries," and is
thus passed free" He blows and puffs
church festival free, to any desired
extent and rarely gets "thank YOU
for 1t. 1t goes as part of his duty as
an editor. He does more work gratui-
tously for the town and community
than all the rest Of the population put
together, and gets cursed for it all,
while in many instances a man who
donates few dollars to Fourth of
July, base ball club, or a church, is
gratefully remembered. Oh, 1t is a
sweet thing to be an editor; he passes

man who had the respect of all who
knew him. He was an active member
