THE Boston Globe, commenting OH
the opening of another school year,
says: 1t is time that halt was called
to the hurry-up policy in school work,
for the sake of pupil and teacher alike.
Whenever and wherever the compile
ton of certain course in a specified
time means overwork and nervous
worry to the average scholar-and the
average scholar is precisely the one
who should be considered-there should
be wise and reasonable relaxation of
requirements. The high-pressure plan
which has been so much in vogue
stands in great need of reform.

THE project of raising $1,000, 900, 900
for the pope as fund with which to
negotiate with Italy for the restora-
ton of temporal power is regarded by
leading Catholic authorities at WASH
ington as visionary. 1t was stated that
possibility. Even if the vast amount
named were available as means of
assisting Italy in her financial en-
barrassment, it was said that the re.
storation of temporal power involves
sentimental considerations which
neither Italy nor the pope would re-
duce to a question of barter.

NEW YORK. Sept. ga special from

called upon to place up to $50, 600, 900

LOWER PREsUMPsCoT.
Its Beauties Becoming known This Year
Better Than Ever Before.

The beauties of the lower Presumpscot
river, from Cumberland Mills to the falls
at Smelt Hill, were never so thoroughly
appreciated by Portland people as this
summer. The length of the river. from
Cumberland Mills to the Falls is seven
miles. In that distance are four bridges
all of considerable picturesqueness. The
shores are in places covered the water S
edge with majestic trees, in other places
the green fields slope gently down to the
water; and in the lower portion of the
course abrupt, ,ledgy banks give an air
of ruggedness not expected in this stream.
Since the steamer has been running
these beauties have become better known.
This river affords facilities for form
of excursion quite popular. From Port
land to Cumberland Mills the electrics
are taken then the steamer seven miles
to Smelt Hill; and then with teams from
Smelt Hill to Portland by the Foreside
or any other good route. A party of this
sort took such an excursion last Satur-
day, sending their teams from Portland
to Smelt Hill to await the boat. How
ever, few see enough of the river on the
trip down, and most are anxious to return
the same way.

will have to be transferred at this point
Sunday new cars were being unloaded
from railroad cars at Pleasantdale sta
ton, and transferred to the electric track
under direction of Mr.. James I'll. Boyd.

WESTBROOK.

A heavy rain and wind storm struck
this city Saturday evening. Slight dam
age was done to the trees.
A special meeting of the city council
has been called for this evening.
Mr. Adam Bailey, young man en-
D loyed by Mr.. Edward Brown, stable
keeper at East End, was seriously in
jured Saturday evening while loading
baggage for the Rockwell Pavilion Thea
tire company, that has been playing in
this city the past week. A heavy trunk
fell from the top of loaded wagon strik-
ing Mr.. Bailey over the head and telling
him to the ground. He was taken to
DR.. Horr's office, where it was learned
that his nose was fractured and that he
had been severely bruised about the
head.
The deciding game in the series be-
tween the Westbrooks and S. d. Warren
& Co. IS mines was contested in the park
Saturday afternoon, resulting in a vic
tory for the former team by a score of 6
to s. Considerable local interest has been
conferred on these games, and large
this final struggle for the pennant.
Both mines played ball in earnest, and
it was neither teams game until the
end of the ninth inning. Webb and
Leighton was the battery for the Vest
brooks and Burnell and Harmon for the
S. d. Warren & Co.'s.
A game of ball was played on Scotch
Hill Saturday afternoon between the
Westbrooks and South Windhams. The
Westbrooks were having it all their own
way when luckily for the opposing team
a shower came up and let them out of
it.
The next thing on the order in this
city is Inspection Day for the fire depart
ment.
All will be glad to learn that Mrs. Eva
Webb Hczelton of Mellis, Mass, is
thought to be on the road to recovery
from her late severe illness.
The officers report. that the offence OF
bathing in the river in the nude state
on the part of a number OF young boys
still continues, and severe means will
be taken to suppress this nuisance. The
banks of the Presumpscot furnish very
beautiful promenade for our many sun
day visitors and the off GERS propose to
protect the rights of the pedestrians.
