The Pride of Portland.

Mr. Isaac Bassett Choate, former
librarian of tho Portland Public Library,
furnished this poem In the Homo journal
entitled "The Pride of Portland:''
Tides running swift in storms and calms.
Fast rocky beadiands, Lodges lone,
Are nowhere stayed with softer charms
Than where the foods caressing arms
Round Falmouth Neck are thrown,
Munjoy stands gazing down the bay.
OFF on the oceans open breast,
For coming light keeps lookout ave.
And Bramhall secs it fade away
Behind Chooorua's crest.
so was it when 1t was young and fair
Inc century now worn and old,
When Destiny led gently there
10 LIES bright bounds favored pair
With gifts of price untold.
How eagerly with listening ear
The world was waiting for song!
Some poets full-to toned voice to hear
Ring out it's gladness loud and clear
80 had it waited long.
These sang, as MINISTRIES sang of old.
The perfect world by Adam trod -
One bard the Golden Legend told,
One took his theme from age of gold
With song they Jared abroad.
One walled the grief of Israel's king,
Dark woes of parricidal strife
The other, gently comforting
Poor human hearts, did softly sing
b The worlds sweet Psalm of Life,
Munjoy still greets the morning gray,
Still Brafuhall watches late and long:
The fair town seated by the bay
Holds in her hearts of hearts today
Her gifted sons of song.

THE PHOTOGRAPHS ON THE WALL
Effect of Vivid flash of lightning Some
Years Ago.

From The Rochester Democrat
The universal popular inter est in the
recent Photographic discoveries recalls a
peculiar incident that occurred in Hair-
port several years ago, exciting much
local comment at the time, but so gener-
ally regarded as simply an unexplainable
freak of lightning" that so far as is
known it was not referred to any scion
fist for investigation. During a violent
electric storm in early summer frame
house on the west side of Vest street. in
Fairport, was struck by lightning. its
chimney demolished, and some damage
done to the inside of the house 1t is also
believed that tree in the yard near the
house was struck, but this cannot be &C.
curately stated. In an upper front room
of the house, which was then nearly n
new one, was blank white wall, oppo
site the two windows which faced the
street looking eastward. On this blank
wall was at once found an exact picture
of the outside front Of the house. inst
as it appeared from the street The MO.
ture WAS perfect and distinct as photo
graph on negative. The wonder was
visited by scores of persons, including
the elder pupils of the Fairpors school,
and for few days afforded topic of
conversation, but it soon faded, and
scarcely outlivad the nroverbial ssnins
days. of a popular wonder It disan-
peared from the wall without even, SO far
as is known, being copied or its record
kept.
NOW comes up this suggestion: Was not
that picture projected on the wall by She
action of electric light, OF X-rays, or, in
other words, was it not workable radio
graph, produced by the force of the x
rays without the aid of any Crooke's
tnbes or other sooientitic appliances for its
development? Another mystery about it
is that the outside of the front of the
mouse should have been delineated. Per-
maps, however, even at this early stage of
this wonderful discovery, some Of our
scientists may be able to explain the
curious points, and they are many, about
this incident. still we'll remembered by
many people in Fairport, some of whom
could doubtless give the story with fuller
details than have been here written.

The institute was opened by Rev.

in the public schools came in for a
good deal Of discussion.
Before adjournment at noon for
lunch, a query box was suggested,
the questions to be answered inn
mediately after the reassembling of
the teachers in the afternoon.
Some of the questions asked were
very timely, and the discussion was
quite spirited at times.
Several very important subjects
on the program were not discussed
on account Of adjournment.
A great deal Of interest was man
ifested in this meeting, which in
dicates success, if the teachers will
only hold out faithful.
The following teachers attended
the institute: j. B. Anderson, A.
