| The thirteenth annual report of the
Bridgton & Saco River Railroad Com
pany, just issued, presents the financial
operations Of the road for the year ending
June 80. 1895. 1t makes very gratifying
exhibit.
| The gross earnings are $50, 1877 A,
S15 s31. 40 being for freight, $40, 2S777 for
passengers, and the remainder for ex-
press and mail service and incidentals.
The operating expenses are s21.ool. o.
| SIS, 1856. 30 being for maintenance of ways
and structures and equipments, and
81, 662. 4S for conducting transportation
and general expenses. The net earnings
| OF total earnings less operating expenses
| is SO, 1866 A. From this deduct 81, 800 paid
for one years interest on first mortgage
bonds; 81, 500 for interest on second mort
gage bonds; 1853. SO for taxes and in
cidentals, and they still show surplus
for the year of 50, 417.05.
The road declares two per cent stock

WHO is TO BLAME?
Is It Not A Case Of Guilty Neglect {?
TERRIBLE RESPO VISIBILITY
RESTS WITH SOMEBODY.
A Serious Question to a Great Many and a
Sad One.

SAD One.
Who is to blame
Surely someone Is to blame for the
enormous amount of sickness and suffer
ing in the world. Too often people are
prone to throw the responsibility fol
their condition upon some higher power.
In nine cases out of ten this is wrong,
for in most cases the blame lies entirely
with the sufferer.
1t has been shown by constantly DEM
onstrated fact, proven by the experience
of thousands upon thousands of people,
that most of the difficulties and diseases
from which people suffer are easily and
readily cured by the use Of DR.. Greene S
Nervura blood and nerve remedy, which
is without doubt, the greatest medical dis
coyery of modern times. 1t is sure to
cure disease.
Mrs. W. M. Strong, who lives in Waits
field, Vt, says:
stAbout ten years ago I had very
severe attack of ty pohid fever, which left
one side OF my body in very bad condi-
ton. One limb swelled badly, and every
time I bore my weight on that limb, 1t
seemed as though my hip would unjoint.
The pain was dreadful, and have never
neen free from that pain during all these
years.

about year ago the trouble took a
different form, going into my arm also:
My arm panied me terribly, and when l
attempted to lift anything with that
hand, my fingers would let go and 1T
would not grip anything I had no
strength in that arm.
"This condition of my arm and limb,
both on the same side continued up to
about six months ago. My head troubled
me very bad. If anything came upon me
suddenly; fearful sensation came over
me, starting from the top of my head,
and for a short time I was entirely lost
as though l was entirely gone.
1.-The same awful feeling would COM
mence if / got very tired, or if many We're
talking at once. I do not know exactly
how TO describe my sensation in my head
in words, but it was deathly and sui
cred very much. Seemed to me as though
something gave away in my head, and
l was gone.
II certainly felt good deal alarmed
about my condition and could not have
lasted a great while longer if l had not
found help.
II consulted and employed many doc
tors, who said there was no help for me,
as it was the result of the typhoid fever.
and did not so much as relieve the pain.
Ny sister informed me OF DR. Greene
Nervura blood and nerve remedy, and
advised me to try 1T, saying that 1T had
helped her greatly.
"The results are, that after three bottles
the pain is all gone from my limbs, and
the pain and deathly feeling in my head
is relieved I am able to comfortably dc
the work in my family for five and six
| all the time.

Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy
to anyone suffering as | was. +"

this case-and such cases are constantly

EVADlNG THE LAW.
Is What the Marshal Says Some Rug
Vendors Are Doing.

Two meu were arrested by one OF the
policemen yesterday and bought to
Marshal Trickeys Office on the charge OF
selling rugs from house to house without
State or town license as required by
law. The men claimed they had not sold
a rug. They had an order book IN which
they took the name and address OF the
party who wished to purchase, and on
18th and Goth of next month another
party would deliver them. The rugs were
Japanese rugs at 81 so pair, and got out
by the National Rug Company.
Marshal Trickey was satisfied that the
method pursued was simply an evasion
to he law and that the men must take
out license. The law exempts travelling
statesmen who go to stores, but not agents
who go from house to house soliciting
orders.

of Peter Kennedy & Co. of Rockland

1t will be remembered that some time
ago the schooner Julia S. Bailey came to
this port with load of paving stone.
She had been injured by running aground
in the Machias river and it was necessary
to stow her cargo over again.
She hired Deake's wharf, in this port,
and after the paving stone had been piled
on the wharf it broke down and the stone
went to the bottom of the dock. 1t was
not all recovered. it is stated, and the
owners of the schooner have brought a
libel against the owners of the wharf for
the damage to the cargo. valued at $500.
The managing owner is Augustus Bailey
of Gardiner. Benjamin Thompson, Esq,
is counsel for the plaintiff and filed the
libel in the United States Court yesterday
afternoon.
Yesterday the grand jury in the United
States Court rose and reported its indict-
ments, none of which are made public
except the case Of the Washington county

Mr.. Shea has opportunities in this play
to show the scope of his power and he
makes good use of them. He strongly
contrasted the two characters, the one,
mild-mannered and lovable, the other
brutal and repelling. In the strong
scenes of the play he was warmly ap-
plauded, and the curtain was called. Mr..
