The following very pertinent and
timely communication comes from one of
Augusta's enterprising citizens apropos
of decoration for the coming celebra-
ton.
Editors of the .kennebec Journal:
Many people who went from Augusta
to the Masonic centennial celebration
at Halloween, Wednesday. were very
much struck with theselaborate decora-
tions onsthe stores and numerous pri-
vate residences in town. 1t was'a very
great surprise to the men who marched
in the ranks to notice the great number
of places that We're decorated, and how
we'll it was done. It was commonly
said that Augusta ought to do even bet
ter on July 4th. 1t is to be hoped for
The credit of our city every effort will
be made to make as general and as
good a display as our sister city did,
yesterday. !.
The houses on the route of the pro-.
cession ought to be very generally dec
Grated, but each Individual must rely
on his own efforts. Every householder
should remember that this celebration
is to advertise the city of Augusta, and
by general decoration the visitors will
see that we have both local pride and
spirit.
Very handsome decorations can be
made at little cost out of parti-colored
print cloth, sold at dry goods stores.
and printed flags can be obtained for a
trifiing sum. With this material added
to pictures and other decorations in the
houses which can be easily improvised
into outside decorations there is no
reason Why this should not be one of
the greatest features of the whole eel
ebration. The time is very short so
every one should be devising and ar
ranging his decorations for the day
Augusta certainly does not intend to
be behind Hallowell in the matter of
public decoration.
Hon. P. Q. Vickery says that people
have made big move towards decor
ating the city, and it is now the talk
of the town.
1t will be expected of the city to dec
crate the soldiers monument with
bunting and flags. this being the only
expense asked of the city for the en-
tire celebration, the entire decoration of
the other buildings being borne by the
subscriptions, in the case of the City
hall, and by the individuals

REPAIRS FOR PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
Augusta Post. Office and U. S. Court House 10
Receive Improvements.

Mr.. Lynch, the custodian of the L. S.
court house and postoffice building, is
to have some extensive repairs made
on the interior of the building and also
some on the outside.
The outside walls on the north. south
and east sides of the building are to
be covered with asphaltum, 10 feet be-
low the surface of the ground. This it
is thought will prevent any leaking in
case of any more such overfiows as
came last March, which set thing afloat
generally. The bulk-head will also
be repaired, in anticipation of the same.
In the newspaper department new
hard wood floor will be laid and a
wainscotting will be built about the
entire room. A new sliding door will
be substituted for the present one in
the newspaper room, at the main en-
trance, in place of the now hinged
door, in order that a more convenient
approach to the elevator may be OBJ
tanned.
All the wood work on the inside of
the building is to be oiled, and, on the
outside, will be painted. The lobby on
the first floor is to be retouched. the
stairway from the first floor to the up
per part of the building will also be
ratoucha6 and Othar evtapSiva roma ire
made on the roof.

moned to the unseen land beyond
by the hand of amessenger who
accepts no refusal. Edna Ethel

her. deaths shades gathered
quickly across her earthly path
whore her childish feet had trod.
Darkened were the windows of
her soul and scarcely with a tre-

fight to that mysterious shore
where mortal footsteps ne'er
have trod; now she sleeps sweet
lywhere rest al last the tired
