In 1891 the six companies owning
all the eight plate glass factories in
the country formed a trust, and
poured the water into it's stock. 1t
advanced the cost of plate glass
SO per cent, and declared a dividend
in 1892 of 81 per cent. Then came
the panic, and the new tariff, making
a sharp reduction in the rates
which had afforded a protection aV-
eraging over 100 per cent. The trust
dissolved 1t reduced wages. 1t
shut down it's mills. 1t declared
that the new tariff would ruin, and
then had ruined the industry. Now

In marked contrast to Senator
Sheehan's reform measures is the
proposition of Representative War
ner to enact a retroactive statute,
under which Mr.. Warmers friend,
Sheriff Chapel, would receive a bonus
of 81, 600 for executing two malefac-
tors last October. This proposition,
of course, is not quite so barren OF
excuse as was the passage of the
act two years ago which added
SIS, 600 a year to the receipts of Sher-
if Chapel and the burdens of the
taxpayers, but it is bad enough, in
all conscience. Mr.. Chapel is said to
be a very deserving person, and 1T
must be so, or he would not have
been cared for during the past
twenty years wholly at the public
expense, but now that he has such
a very comfortable berth there is
suggestion of piggishness in the
proposition to still further coddle
him. If Mr.. Warner and the legiS-
lature really think that Sheriff Chap
Ell is such priceless boon, they can
have him at first cost, with $50 per
cent off, owing to the hard times.

SUPREME COURT.
civil Cases Tried Only One Criminal
Case to be Tried.

The business of the April term of the
supreme judicial court for Hancock
county will probably be concluded by
Friday Of this week.
This has been a rather "horsey'' term
Three of the four cases tried have been
"horse cases.; the fourth was an equity
case.
The grand jury completed its work in
two days, returning only four indict-
ments-two against Edward Ellis, of Bar
Harbor, for larceny, one against William
Donovan OF Bucksport for jail-breaking
and one against Richard McPike, of Bar
Har Dor for assault
In answer to the indictments Ellis
pleaded guilty and was sentenced to six
months in the Bangor work jail. The
case against Donovan was settled by pay
ment OF a fine. This leaves only one case
on the criminal docket to be tried-that
OF the people against Richard McPike.
In the case of Edward +. Chase vs.. the
inha bitants OF Surry, the opening OF
which was reported last week, the jury
returned verdict for plaintiff in the sum
OF s31.2l. 1t is understood that the case
will be carried to the law court.
The case OF Norris l.. Grindall VS.. Alex.
c. Hagerthy occupied the entire day Fri
day The action was brought for alleged
fraud, involving ownership OF the horse,
Plaintiff claimed that the horse was sold
to him free from all encumbrances. De-
fendant denied that he owned the horse,
but only held him on a mortgage, and
hat what he sold to plaintiff was his in
tereIt in the horse in the shape OF this
mot gage. Chase and King for plaintiff;
Deasy iot defendant.
The case was given to the jury at s
o'clock in the afternoon, and the jury re-
manned out until o'clock the following
morning, when failure to agree was an
nounced. The case will go over to the
next term.
The equity case, Everard II. Greedy vs..
Mrs Jeanette Bunker, of Bar Harbor,
was tried Saturday.
This WAS an action brought to compel
defendant to convey the Bunker block at
Bar Harbor and right OF way in t he rear
of the block, according TO term of bond
given by her as alleged by plaintiff. De-
PENDANT admitted giving bond, but
ella timed that it did not include the rig hit
of way, but simply the block, and that
her signature to the bond produced in
court was obtained by misrepresentation.
The jury returned verdict for de-
PENDANT. Peters for plaintiff; Deasy for
defendant.
The case OF Bulger Bros, of Bar Harbor
vs.. James +. Foster, the third horse case
OF he term, occupied Monday afternoon
and the greater part of Tuesday, the case
being given to the jury at O'Clock in
the afternoon.
Plaintiffs alleged that defendant sold

that she was sound and kind in every

PEELED to cut her hair, - she could not
bear the weight OF it. At first the change
for the better was very gradual; the pains
seemed to be less frequent and the swell
ing in some Of the joints subsidized after
using about one bottle. Then improve
ment was more rapid and one night she
surprised US greatly by telling US that we
need not prop her up in bed as we had
one for several months, and next night
she surprised US still more by rolling
over across the bed. From that time on
improvement was Very Rapid
and she soon began to creep about the
house and then to walk on crutches. Now
she generally uses but one crutch, the dis
ease having left one leg crooked, and fear
it will remain so. We feel that to Hoods
Sarsaparilla we owe our child's life.

The Special Meetings.

A good congregation greeted Rev. Drew
T. Wyman Sunday morning, as he opened
the series of meetings which is being held
in the Baptist church. Earnest attention
was given to the sermon, the theme OF
which was "The Divine Touch" Before
the sermon Mr.. Wyman sang solo. He
has strong, rich voice which he handles
in such way as to make his singing very
impressive. The Sunday school had his
help in remarks and singing.
The remaining afternoons of the week
there will be bible reading at 2.30; also
meetings every evening, except Saturday,
at 7.30, with a preparatory prayer-service
in the church parlor at 7.15.
During this and next week some or all
of the following topics will be used in
the evening meetings: Goods greatest
and best gift ''The Sons greatest
gift" "The time when secured "No
room for Jesus" 'sRest in Jesus, The
man who wasn't near-sighted, The
centre of gravity in the moral universe"
The subject of the Sunday morning
sermon will be Love grown cold that
of the evening "A foothold on the sea. >
Special attention is called to the service
of next Monday evening, the 22d, which
Will be Sunday school night for children
and parents Topic for Monday evening:

MACHIAS' OLDEST.
Never Saw Train or Trolley Car, or
Used Tobacco or Needed a Doctor.

USeu lODaccO or NeeuCu DOctOT.
No feature of the splendid old town Of
Mach is more noticed by visitors, and
none is more notable, than the familiar
figure OF ''the oldest inhabitant,' Mr..
Cephas Longfellow, who may be seen al
most any day there, in the streets he has
known these ninety-four years past.
Here is man who has never seen a
train of cars, never used tobacco, never
employed Il doctor, and never rode in an
elevator or trolley car; yet he can split
wood with the youngsters, and has cast
every presidential vote s.nce and includ-
ing one for John Quincy Adams.
Cephas Longfellow was born in Ma
chias, Jaly %, 1891, and is therefore
nearly ninetyfour years of age. He
comes of good stock. His maternal
grandmother, Margaret Bigelow Long
fellow, came to Machias in the winter of
1859, and is spoken of as a woman firm
in purpose, energetic in action and of
consistent Christian character.
MIR. I4ongfelloW can remember when
there We're not more than two or three
houses in Nachias, and the surrounding
country was a wilderness. For one so
old, his eye,ight and hearing are remark
ably good. He reads without spectacles;
it would make some of the younger men
hustle to keep even "ith him at the saw
horse.
Everybody knows the Longfellow
family down Macaa, way. The high
sheriff OF Washington county is a Long
fellow, and good fellow, and good
many ot hers of the name hold honorable
offices there. The aged Cephas is per-
haps as unique Il figure as our State con-
tains, with his ancient culture so
strangely mixed with his up-to-date age.
