A BITTER FEELING
Shown Between England and fr,nce-The
Alvah- Brinkburn Collision.

Paris, April 3-As an indication of the
alleged strained state of public feeling be
tween England and France, it is worthy
of note that the Matin and other French
newspapers persist in insinuating that the
collision on March 80 Of Messinna, island
Of Sicily, between two British steamers,
the Alvah and the Brinkburn, the later
chartered by the French government as
transport to take troops and munitions of
war to the island of Madagascar, was due
to England's malice, and that nation
capable of such an action should be made
to repent it.
The Alvah. as cabled at the time, was
sunk, and the Brinkburn, which was on
her way from Toulon to the island OF
Madagascar with French troops and
munitions Of war, was seriously damaged,
but succeeded in making the harbor of

active means of supplying the nerves and
tissues with better nutrition, and the
veins with better blood. When Pane's

often amazed at the rapidity with which
it restores the strength, builds up the
worn nervous tissues, and replaces tho
languor of depleted nervous system by
the elasticity of youthful health.

HALE'S RASCALITY
Astounds People of Foxcroft
By Its Great Extent.
Stealings Have Reached S15O,OOO
and Returns Not All In.
State Of Affairs That Causes Great Excitement
In the Town.

Foxcroft, April The Hale dcfalca-
ton notes are still coming, and have
reached $4,000. The town is in preat
excitement. The town government will
contest. The selrctmcn have been in ses-
sion all day. Mr.. Judson will act for the
town.
In March, 1894, an order was entered
by votes that the treasurer was not to
have the entire control of floating the
bonds but it was to be in the hands of the
selectmen and treasurer jointly during
that year. Twenty two thousand dollars
worth of notes were floated without the
knowledge of the selectmcn. The people
invested this, trusting him implicitly to
cvade taxation, although knowing that
it was illegal. They will lose all they put
in.
The bondsmen for that year were j. G.
Mayo and Wainwright Gushing, for the
sum of SIC, 900 They will not be held
except for notes with the signature of the
board of selcctmen and treasurer The
government of the town was run by q
ring for years and every opportunity was
given for dishonesty. The old town Off
cials were criminally negligent, in not
having Hale give bonds and not examin-
ing the books. Prominent business men
outside the ring tried to interfere but
We're browbeaten by the head ones In
1898 the ring was broken and the rascality
commenced to disappear.
Hale used the money of the town to
secure his election and thereby was to be
secure. He was requested to show the
loan book by the present officials, but re-
fused and threatened to resign if forced
The selectmen. fearing the popular feeling
! of respect for him, did not urge and put
1t to the fact that it was an old mans
whim. Hale's chief reason was that the
people who invested did not care to have
| their names known.
The town voted to liquidate the entire
debt in the present year The debt was
but $1725, and the defalcation would
come out anyway, and this fact caused
the suicide.
All his property except the post office
block, one farm in Foxcroft and a little
land at Brooklinc, Me-, is in his wife's
name, and was originally hers.
All evidence as to papers and will was
destroyed. There is no prospect of the
town having to pay the deficiency.

Nervous exhaustion in children Is
worrying great many fathers and
mothers these days.
While the hurry and hustle of modern
life Is bringing a constantly increasing
strain upon grown men and women, there
certainly comes to light the startling fact
of growing tendency toward nervous
ness among their children.
AS these boys and girls, when older.
will enter life of nervous strain fully ms
exacting as that of today, it is no wonde,
that parents view with tiismay these early
signs of nervous weakness, and anxiously
seek some means of making the young
people strong and well again. The remedy
is at hand in every city and town in
America
1t is the remedy first prescribed by that
greatest OF all modern educators, Prof. Ed
ward Il. Phelps, NJ d., Lii d., of Dart
mouth college. 1t is Painc's celery com
pound, which Principal Camp of New
Haven and Pres. Cook of the National
Teachers association have so recently
recommended.
Countless parents today give their
children Paine's celery compound and sec
them grow robust and vigorous day by
day before their eyes till they are again
restored to the perfect health that belongs
co youth. Physicians everywhere advise
the use of this greatest of blood purifiers
and nerve foods
One of the danger signals of nervous
exhaustion among young people is the
lack of desire for food and the capricious-
ness of appetite. When their over pressed
nervous systems have been driven to the
point of exhaustion, their faces grow pale
and pinched, their spirits decline, their
bodies lose perceptibly in weight and
