Deliverable and payable on or before
June 1st, 1895.
Price 105 and interest yielding net
return of about 41 per cent? subject to
advance without notice.
These bonds age dated May 1st. 1898,
payable without option twenty years af-
ter date, with interest at At per cent
per annum, payable semi-annually on
the first days of May and November;
principal and Interest payable in United
States gold coin of the present standard
of weight and fineness.
Of the total authorized mortgage,
$3.50. 600 bonds are already outstanding,
and $220,000 will now be issued for
equipping the whole system with cleo
tricity; of this S220,00O, we shall receive
for delivery $150,000 on or before June
1st, which are advertised herewith; we
shall offer no move of the bonds until
August, 1895.
The charter of the Railroad was
granted in 1890, and is perpetual. This
mortgage is first lien on all the fran
chises, rights and property (including
real estate and equipment) situated in
the Cities OF Portland, Deering and
Westbrook.
The length of track is 20.14 miles,
making the bonded indebtedness less
than $4,000 per mile.
The earnings for 1894 were as fol-
lows
Gross, $207, ,552.20
Expenses and taxes, 169,979. Is
Net, $37, ,572. AZ
Interest, 8,6223 "a
Surplus, $2s, ,950.00
It will be noticed first, that the operat-
4 motors, / snow plough, mile new
track, etc., were over so per cent of the
gross earnings, and secoud, that the net
earnings were sufficient to pay the in
terest on bonds then outstanding, plus
this new block of 1920, 200, tUice over.
1t is conservatively estimated that the
increase in earnings and decrease in ex
penses (due to electricity will be at
least sufficient to pay interest on the
lchole Indebtedness, additional to the
present large earnings.
The capital stocki is $500, 600. which sells
in the home market at 115 to 120 and
pays per cent dividends. The surplus
is over $75, 600.
An experts estimate of the savings to
to the road, by making the change to
electricity in 1895. over what the same
would have cost In 1892, is at least $3.50, 900,
due to present low prices of rails, motors
cars, etc.
These bonds are legal investment for
Maine Savings Banks, S175.ooO of those
outstanding being now owned by the
Portland Savings Bank.
We feel fully justified in recommend
ing them as a particularly choice invest
ment, returning better income than
any other home security of similar
standing.

1t seems to have finally been decided
that it will be impossible to court
martial Admiral Meade because of the
impossi bility of getting testimony
against him, and for the same reason a
reprimand is out of the question. The
upshot of the matter is that Meade goes
on to the retired list and escapes without
any punishment whatever. Probably the
case will be the means of changing the
law SO that civilians can be compelled
to testify before naval couIts-martial
as they can now before army courts

All of the bills are not yet in, and an effort
will be made TO get some OF them discounted.
although Mr.. Stuart, the chairman, said
that the merchants :;ad been unusually kind
in their donations.
At present the expenses appear to foot
up to about $4,000. and the net profits
are between $4,000 and $4,000. All
the leftover articles have not been dis
posed of, and this is being accomplished
by means OF private sales. The two lots

All told the assets are 81 5000. The audit

Mr.. Stuart said TIE association had done
better than the Brooklyn society with its

The jar is about foot in diameter and

He opened q dra wer in a desk and o lot
of croton bugs began running about, and
some dropped out upon. Ihe floor. Mr..

floor and dropped them into the jar with
the frogs. Such a scurry as there was
and a flashing out of long Tongues! The
bugs We're all gone in a second or two.
More were put in and were gobbled up.
Finally some were put in which did not
move as they lay on the water.
THE frogs won't touch them if they
are dead said Mr.. Lederle. and he poked
the bugs with his pencil No sooner did
he put the pencil down than the bugs began
swapping at it. and even at his fingers
Bugs ran short before A1r. Lederle got
through the SHOW.
IN have to put some more candy in
that drawer" said he, for the bugs have
already eaten up most Of the papers that
were there"
In another jar containing water and
moss Mr.. Lederle has some pollywogs grow
ing. They have just reached the stage
when their hind legs are appearing beside
their tails and they are about to turn
from water breathers to air breathers.
Soon their legs will grow large. and their
tails be absorbed, and they will become
full-fledged frogs They have not been
taught to do any tricks.
