Miss Charlotte T. Sibley at Fryeburg

Yesterday afternoon and evening, (Aug.
4th) Miss Sibley entertained the Chautau-
quans, who, in spite of the rain, ventured
into the auditoriu N. The afternoon lecture
was adelightful one, and fasci mated the audi
ence. The evening lecture, Egypt by Star
light and Sunlight was one of the most
graphic series of word pictures ever given at
Martha's Grove. Scntillating with wit and
humor, glowing with the fancies of the East,
was the whole lecture. Through orange
gardens and rose gardens, beside the banks
of ancient Nile, under the shadow of the
Pyramids, for energetic Americans are
bound to be on top every time, looking at
the inscrutable Sphinx, in every part of this
land of the Arabian Nights. the audience
was led by Miss Sibley's genius until river
and pines mountains and rain, faded away,
and donkeys and Arabs, mosques and des-
ert sands, became as real as our next door
neighbors.
Certainly Miss Sibey has brilliant fu-
ture before her, for with her fine education,
her wonderful command of language and
her easy, charming manner, she holds, even
enchains, her audience as few of our lectur-
ers do. Portland Evening Express.

Bathing the baby is one of the ioys of
young motherhood The mere sight and
touch of the soft, sweet cooling, growing
little creature is a soiace for many sorrows.
This happiness is missed if either mother
or child be sickly, weak nervous, cross.
If either is so, it is the mothers fault. She
has failed to keep herself we'll and strong
during the period of CESSATION, and the
neglect shows in her baby.
All the peculiar ills of womankind are
cured by DR.. Pierce's Favorte Prescription
1t relieves pain, allays Inflammation, stops
debllltatlng drains, strengthens and vitalizes
the organs involved. 1t SO perfectly pre-
pares a woman for the time of parturition
that pain and danger are practically elm
mated. By its use perfect health is assured
for both mother and baby. 1t is the most
marvelously efficient medicine ever devised
for this purpose and the only one that may
be absolutely depended upon.

Deserved More Circulation.

The press of the State failed to report
as fully as it should Congressman Mill
ken's able address at Fryeburg. With
commanding language he showed how
the industries of the country had been
Frustrated under the Wilson German bill,
how our mills had been shut down and
employees denied labor; and that the old
party, which in its youth came to the
rescue when the bayonets of secession
were pointed at the heart of the nation, is
the party which must come to the rescue
now, give us a tariff that shall restore
prosperity and pay the workman in hon
est dollars. Bath Times.

Millikens speech, the fullest we were
able to obtain. But all his speeches are
effective and he will be frequently heard

The Situation in Waldo County
As Seen by a Belfast Populist.

George W. Pendleton of this city, poet
and Populist, publishes letter in Bate
mans paper, the Maine Popuist, from
which we quote as follows:
The Bangor papers said that we held
convention and fused. Do not be deceiv-
ed. We held our convention Aug list and
the silver men held theirs the same day in
another hall and in no way connected with
us. A committee from their convention
conferred with our committee and offered
to carry several of our men on their ticket
if we would do the same by them; as we
have not over one thousand votes in this
county and the whole county casts five
thousand we knew it was impossible to
elect anyone so we accepted their offer on
certain conditions. The office of Register
of Probate will certainly be retained by
the Republicans. That is foregone con-
clusion; but we hoped by exchanging
favors to get one of our men, Mr.. Wal
lace, in as Sheriff. and he with his eight
deputies would gain us something. We
also believe we can elect County Com
missioner, Mr.. Allenwood. The only Of
fees they can fill are County Attorney and
that we had not man in our party quail
fed to fill. We believed it wise to drive
out the gold bug attorney and put silver
man in his place. So they will, if posi-
BILE, have County Attorney and Senator
We will, l hope, have Sheriff and County
Commissioner. All the other county Of
fees mentioned in the list are but nominal
and are conceded to the Republicans.
From all over this county and as far as
have heard from Hancock county every
body seems pleased with the work done at
the st. Louis convention. They all say
that by giving us Watson we now have
ticket; but had you endorsed Sewall we
should have then been forced to throw
straight Democratic ticket and our party
would have died with disgust. Had you
endorsed Sewall you would no doubt have
been Governor. We all believe you have
sacrificed you own gain for your party's
good. This is our verdict. We pay very
little attention to the papers outside our
party. Many Republicans are coming to
us. We have our town committees now
in fine working order and for once our
party in this county is properly organized.
| was in Mayor Hanson S Office Monday,
and when asked by some gentlemen what
l thought of the situation in our State, 1
told them that probably Lew Powers would
be Governor; but in regard to any other
man being Governor that you held the key
to the situation, that you controlled TWEEN
ty thousand votes in this State and that
anyone who ignored you ignored your
whole party and you controlled the situa-
| ton.
They will have a convention at Water
vile. Of course you know the inside of
everything by this time. Sewall will not
| get the votes of the railroad men in this
State and l believe his chances are small.
Our Waldo vote will be Bryan and Watson,
and this week we will hang out our flag
from our club as headquarters. Hoping
you will be blest in every undertaking l
am with you to the end.

Heroic Treatment Presc

heroic Treatment Prescribed.
To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Anent the effort of the United Wheelmen
to obtain for bicyclists the equal rights of
the road to which they are entitled in COM
mon with the owners of other vehicles l
desire to offer suggestion.
Wheelmsn know to their sorrow that the
drivers of vehicles. as a rule accord them
meme Of these rights. 1t is seldom that a
driver will swerve yard in his course for
the wheelman, though were he meeting an
other wagon he would surrender half Of
the road. The main reason for this exhibit
ton of hoggishness Is, Of course, because
he knows that in case Of collision it will
be the wheelman and his property that will
suffer damage. The road hog knows that
wagon to wagon, his is as liable to be dam
aged as much as the other fellows. SO
drivers treat each other with a sort Of
sUrly respect.
Now, there are among wheelmen many
athletes. There are many who ride for
their health. If, among the former class.
when the road hog tries to ride them down
or refuses to surrender a portion of the
way, the wheelman will dismount, yank the
hog from his seat to the pavement and
punch his selfish face into jelly. the next
time that particular driver meets a wheel
man who wants to share the road with
him he will give it up.
1 venture the prophecy, in all seriousness,
that If the athletic wheelmen Of this city
will In this manner resent the overbearing &
conduct of the driver-hog. there will be
fewer accidents and little grounds for gen.
tral complaint.
ride for my health and cannot, I regret
to say, administer the medicine suggested.

cyclist who will follow this course.
