Dissatisfaction With Weyler.

Madrid. Dec. lathe dissatisfaction
with Gen. Weyler's conduct of affairs
in Cuba grows apace here. The minis
terial papers complain about his re-
turning to Havana to receive an I'M
deserved ovation instead of vigorously
pursuing the insurgents in the province
of Pinar del Rio.
Credible rumors are current that the
government is not at all satisfied with
Gen. Weylers administration of the
civil and military affairs and that if
the situation in Cuba does not shortly
improve. the government intends to
substitute in his place Gen. Marin. at
present Governor of Porto Rico.

Night Telephone Services.

There is a sentiment abroad in the
land that this city should have an all
night telephone service. Wateryille is
central now for this city Fairfield.
Oakland and NasSalboro with free ser
vice to subscribers to Skowhegan.
There are over 80 subscribers in this
city with the prospects of 10 more be
fore spring. There are more than $50
subscribers in the towns mentioned
above. with new instruments going in
every week in each town.
1t is suggested that this city should
have the all night service with the
outside world for several reasons. 1t
would be convenient to those who might
want to use it for their private pur
poses and it would be good thing in
case Of fire here in Waterville or in
some town that might want help from
this city.
This system of all night service as
far as the WaterVille office is concerned
would be of but very little expense TO
the company. At present boy is en-
ployed to stay in the Central office dur
ing, meal hours and evenings. The ad-
ditional cost might not exceed $4 per
month to induce the boy to sleep in the
Office nights to be awakened by a gong
similar to that used in other offices for
a like purpose. IT is believed that the
tolls taken at night viii be sufficient to
make it profitable thing for the COM
pany to do
It has also been suggested that ar
rangements might be made to have the
centrals at Fairfield and Skowhegan
connect the Waterville office with the
hotels in those towns and the towns up
for the purpose of merchantile service
and for calling for assistance from fire
departments from the larger towns.
After 9 O'Clock at night all towns
above Fairfield are now shut out from
receiving assistance that might save
them thousands of dollars in property
from fire. Waterville business men are
contemplating sending a petition to the
management of the telephone company
with the above purpose in view.

WHO WAS FOOLED.
Boston Sharpers Try to Bunco Gardiner Mer
chant. But Make Mistake.

A couple of weeks ago, a well known
Gardiner merchant was called to Bos-
ton on business. The trader always
carries in his vest pocket a large
amount of money sometimes having in
his possession at one time as much as
$1,000 in bills. The business man waited
around the Hub" for few hours after
he had transacted his business, when
he was accosted by well dressed fell
low with great gift of CAB. who
asked the man from Maine if he did
not desire some liquid refreshment.
The shrewd Gardinerite 'tumbled.
He knew very we'll. indeed. that his re-
cent acquaintance was one of those
sharp fellows, who exc out an exist
ence by their wits in every large city.
The men entered one of the nearby
fluid emporiums and seating them
selves at a table. the stranger called for
the drinks. They were soon joined by
a friend of the Gardiner mans COM
panion, who introduced himself as Mr..
Jones of Jonesboro. or some name like
that.
A game of cards was suggested and
all three had hand. The Bostonians
doubtless thought they had a cinch
with the down East farmer" but it
did not take them 50 very long to find
out their mistake. Luckily turned the
cards for the man from this town. ana
in a very short time he pulled in some
thing like 800, The point of the con-
spirators was to lei the 'Rube. as they
thought him to he. win several games,
thinking that with so much wealth he
would become affected with a Uranium
enlargement, and throw up all his com.
One of the men. it appears, knew that
the merchant carried a large amount
of money on his person.
Well. the tables turned. and after
dropping a few games the Gardinerite
arose and left the place, winner by
several dollars. remarking: Good day.
gentlemen. will see you later Who
was fooled the Boston Sharpers or the
