Portland High school boys are Disguised
with Bangor's claim to the earth, and
especially with the result of the meeting
at Augusta on Saturday. Then the
place Of the annual meet was decided on
and Bangor by clever wire pulling secured
the field day, although it meant a long
trip and heavy expenses to members from
the western part of the state. Augusta,
Lewiston or Waterville were suggested,
but Bangor had the majority on the exec
utiye board and it was voted to hold the
field day in Bangor. Not only Portland
High school but Thornton acadamy were
disgruntled over the arbitrary position
assumed and have voted not to send a
team to contest. Two delegates were sent
to Saco yesterday to confer with the mem
bers of Thornton regarding forming a
dual league, and they are favorably dis
posed to the idea. - Portland Press.

THE FRESHET
Has Not Yet Reached Its
Limit on the Saco.
But in New Hampshire and Vermont
the Water is Falling.
Trains Are Still Delayed and Many Mills
Are Shut Down.

Biddeford, April 16 The Saco river is
still steadily rising, and has passed the
highest point reached since 1870 From
noon till midnight there has been a rise
averaging an inch an hour. The main
boom two miles above here, has been SC
reinforced by chains and ropes that river.
men believe it will hold its own logs and
those that have broken loose from up
river booms. Most of this mornings West
Buxton and Bar Mills wreckage has
reached here. Tonight, another section
of the bridge between Hollis and West
Buxton was carried away.
The cataract bridge at Saco being in
danger from accumulated logs and debris,
the Boston & Maine, tonight, ordered
two work crews here. one from Portland
and the other from Lowell with steam
derrick. The latter crew arrived at mid
night Both crews were employed all
night removing logs from the trestle.
Hopper saw mill and the Deering mill,
which are badly undermined by the water,
still remain on their foundations but it is
believed that they cannot much longer
stand up against the current. Their GO
ing out means the probable detruction of
either the Cataract or Gooch street bridge
The condition of the flooded streets here
is worse than ever. Tonight, crews were
hauling stone with which to weight
down the bridges The York mills will be
obliged to shut down, ON account of the
freshet.

ENGLAND REFUSES
10 Accept Nicaragua's Reply
and Plot Thickens.
Interests of United States Again Be-
come Important Factor.
Nicaragua May Pay Under Protest But Only
When Forced to II.

Washington April 10 If Great Britain.
as reported, considers Nicaragua reply
an unsatisfactory answer to her ultima
tum and should proceed to take immedi-
ate steps for the collection Of the demanded
smart money" for the expulsion Of
Hatch. the Nicaraguan incident will Inn
mediately take ON new aspect.
1t is understood that tho terms of tho
Nicaraguan diplomatic note was sub.
mitted to and approved by this govern
ment before delivery to Great Britain.
With the rejection of Nicaragua's PRO
posal. the controversy returns TO the same
conditions which existed before the reply
was made except that the payment Of the
fl5, 600 demanded and now due, seven
weeks from February 20. expired today
The United States has already been as
sured that no Nicaraguan port where
American interests are important will be
bombardcd, but tho question OF Great
Britain's attaching Nicaragua's customs
receipts is still an open one In which tho
United States, it is said at the state de-
partment, has not yet made representa-
tionS.
Under the treaty negotiated by Secretary
Frclinghuysen in 1884, providing for a
ohitoN),tatcs proteCtOIdtcu Ncr nicaragua,
no such seizure could be made but Presi-
dent Cleveland withdrew that treaty from
the Senate Immediately after his Inaugural
ton for the reason that he did not favor
a policy of the acquisition of new and dis
tant territory or tho incorporation of re-
mote interests with our own
A member of the diplomatic corps said,
today, that the United States would not
be warranted in interfering with Great
Britain in the collection of legitimate
debts. provided no injury was inflicted on
the interests of tho United States, which
are recognized by all nations as para
mount on the American istbmus, especi-
ally in any country which included terri
tory available for interoceanic transporta-
ton by canal or otherwise.
There is good authority for the state
ment that Nicaragua, rather than resort
to war with Great Britain, will probably
pay the money demanded. She will pay
it under protest and insist that it has been
wrung from her arbitrarily and by force,
and that in thus yielding to the newt
able she cannot DO understood as agree
ing that the claim is just, until It has
first been passed upon by a board of arbi-
tration.

In the body of an adult person there are
about IS pounds OF blood.
The blood has as its most important ele-
ments, small round corpuscles, red and
white, in proportion of about 800 red to
white one.
II the number Of red corpuscles becomes
diminished and the white ones increased
the blood is impure, thin, lacking in the
nutrition necessary to sustain the health

Then That Tired Feeling, Nervousness,
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, or Others of the long
