The snow storm of Thursday afternoon
and night made splendid shedding in the
woods, but the roads are bare and rough,
making travelling anything but enjoyable.
The Cove fleet, comprising schs. W. E.
Jewell, Capt. G. E. Drinkwater; Kitty
Lawry, Capt. Evansville Chapman, and
julia Edna, Capt Brooks, finished their
seasons work last Thursday and Friday and
have hauled into the Cove for the winter
The retired sea captain we alluded TO re-
Gently who had record of q miles travelled
to his credit but no game, made very sat
isfactory break in his record last Saturday
at Little Harbor where he had the good for
tune to shoot loon, fine one, too, which
tipped the beam at - pounds easily. The way
he nodded his head to everyone he met on
the road gave one the impression that he
was a bit loony; and he was, for hanging
down his back was the ey idence, and no sane
man could deny it. 1t was a handsome look
ing bird and the captain felt just as proud as
though ii had been moose. In all prob
ability he will have it mounted upon the
ridge-poe of his stable as warning to the
mariners who look up to the roof that they
may be reasonably sure that the wind will
be eastery.
Everybody was pleased to learn of the
marriage Of Capt G. e. Drinkwater, we'll
known and highly respected young man Of
this place, which occurred at Brewer on
Thanksgiving day to Mrs. Leonora Closson
of that town They will make their home
during the winter with the Captains parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Edward Drinkwater. The many
friends Of the Captain hope his voyage upon
the sea OF matrinony may be an exceedingly
happy and prosperous one. Monday evening
Mr.. and Mrs. Drinkwater held a reception at
Elwells hall, expressly for the benefit Of
their friends WHO completely filled the hail,
to present their congratulations and to Trip
the light fantastic toe. The groom and his
bride looked charming, and the unanimous
sentiment expressed was that She was
lust ~ pretty as she coulG be- OF course
the Captain was aware OF that, but then
such uniformity of opinion from his friends
was very pleasing to him, and caused an
extra blush to spread over lis large open
countenance, which caused the ladies to re-
mark: 'Wel, declare, didn't think the
Captain was such good looking fellow be-
fore grand social time was enjoyed BY
all, and at late hour. or perhaps one ought

Reception to Miss 1ingsbury and Mr.

A reception was rendered by the Univer-
salist parish Tuesday to Rev. Myra Kings
bury retiring pastor, and Rev. Charles H.
Wells her successor, at the pleasant home
Of Mr.. and Mrs. Sidney Kalish No. "a High
street. Even before they entered the house
the guests We're made to feel something Of
the warmth of hospitality that awaited them
within 10y the cheerful illumination which
contrasted sharply with the hracing winter
air. The rooms throughout presented very
pretty appearance. The arrangement was
tasteful and the decorations simple and arts-
tic. Miss kingsbury and Mr.. Wells received
under festoon of evergreen with flowers in
the centre. A few evergreens and bright
silk ribbons We're fsstooned about, and an
occasional palm or fern contributed to the
general effect. AT tile door the guests We're
met by polite and attentive ushers, Who es-
corted them to the cloak rooms and thence
to the front parlors, here Mcssrs. Irving
Dinsmore and Arthur Mitchell intro
dnced them to Miss kingsbury and Mr..
Wells. From here the visitors passed
to the next room, Where Mr.. and Mrs. IIalsh
and daughter, Miss Kalish, met all With a
true homelike welcome. Repairing to the
dining room the visitors were served with
ice cream and cake and after short season
of social intercourse, departed. Guests be-
gan to arrive at abont 30 o'clock, and con-
tinued to come until 10. The large numbers
present, not only from the Universalist
parish, bnt from all the other societies,

= Washington special to the Portland
Press. which is no doubt the best Of au-
tholity on the subject at issue, says that
the newspaper statements of Speaker
Reed plans are simply guesses In fact,
the Speaker is making haste slowly and
does not propose to make the mistake Of
putting round man in square hole. Or
vice versa. The Press despatch concludes:
1t is safe to say that if the Speaker has
decided where he shall place men like
Dngley, Cannon or Henderson, they do
not yet know it, and if they do not know
it, the public do not. Probably Mr.. Bou-
telle does not know whether he will be
chairman Of naval affairs, although it is
natural and probably safe to guess that
he will be. Perhaps there was never a
Congress when the logic of circumstances
imposed on the Speaker such a complete
reserve as to his intentions.

GOOD ADVICE GIVEN THE DAIRYMEN OF MAINE
ATTHE NORWAY CONFERENCE.
The closing days sessions Of the Maine
dairyman'S conference at Norway Dec 9th
were we'll attended. In the morning Prof
Jordan Of the State College at Orono gave an
address on "The Relation of the Food of
Mich Cows to the Quality of the Product -
Prof. Jordan cited abundant testimony to
show that solids in milk were not materially
changed i'll their relation to each other nor
in amount in a given quantity OF milk.
Eighty-seven per cent. of average milk is
water. The remaining Is per cent. is ash,
casein, milk sugar and fat. Milk is rich or
poor, according to the amount of solids it
contains. Feeding may vary the amount Of
milk given, and hence the solids, in a cor
responding degree, but the relations of the
various elements remain the same.

in the foregoing fact. Their Digestive Cor

REUNION AT DALBY SPRINGS.

Tomorrow 9th, and the next day
the 10th, the old soldiers (ex-Con-
federates) of Bowie county will as
semble, and pass two days in camp.
Many will be the tales told of hard
ships endured during the four years
struggle in our family war. These
reunions are nice to have, for it re-
news friendship between man, and
infuses new ideas into old heads.
They act as a schooling for men
and we think they should be more
general over the country than they
are. Bowie county contains some
brave soldiers, men who started out
in the early 81, and never laid down
their gun or saber until the confed-
eracy collapsed, and it is this class
of men who are now, and have made
our best citizenship. We hope the
weather will be propritious for their
entertainment and that nothing
will happen to mar the pleasure of
the gathering.
