HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Examinations will come on Thurs
day and Friday of this week.
The "Dagos" are praetieing hard, and
seem determined to give Cherry lie high
school a hard game on Memorial Day.
At meeting of the senior class Monday
afternoon, it was decided to accept the
kind invitation Of Rev. David l.. Yale,
who will deliver baccalaureate sermon
on the Sunday before gradua on at the
Congregational church.
Graduation day is fast approaching.
The essays of the graduating class have
been carefully prepared. The ce1earsal
of them has alreadS commenced. All
seems to be moving smoothly on toward
one of the most successful graduations
from the Ellsworth high school. Mona
ghan's orchestra OF ten pieces will
furnish music for the afternoon and for
the ball in the evening. The Apollo
quartette of Boston, assisted by
talented reader, will make the evening
concert rare treat.
At the lyceum exercises last Friday
afternoon music was furnished by Misses
Helen Hale, Lillian Joy and Ethel KnowI-
.oh' Among lhose decl4lNl y, =. Ii.
Lowell, Theodore Higgins and Misses
Grindell and Morrison deserve special
mention. The debate, "Resolred, That
eloquence is gift of nature and not ac-
quired," was discussed by Misses Hale
and Hamor in the affirmative and bv
Misses Mullan and JelIisoa in the mega
tive. The arguments were al good and
showed study of the subject. Beth by
the committee and by vote of he school
the question was decided in favor of the
negative. The paper read by Miss Hattie
Mason and Charles Grows was fright and
pleasing.

SENATOR HALE IN WASHINGTON
Noted as Saying He Will Probably
Rebuild s.The Pines.'

Noted as Saying lie VIII Probably
Rebuild "The Pines.''
A correspondent from Washington
writes:
Mr.. Hale is back from the ruins of his
beautiful home at Ellsworth and at once
took up the pile of work which has
accumulated during his absence.
81 feel very grateful" he said, 'to my
neighbors in Ellsworth for the work
they did in helping to save my property.
| have received hundreds of letters of
sympathy from people everywhere and
was met at home with a great deal Of
kind regard which l highly appreciate.
The loss of ones home is a good deal
like death in family, especially as it
represented the destruction of much that
we had been collecting for the past thirty
years. 1t was rather disconsoate scene
which | visited. The insurance on the
building and upon the furniture has been
nearly ad justed but that does not more
than half cover the. monetary value Of the
property destroyed, while much that has
gone can never be replaced.
II have made arrangements said the
senator, ito occupy the fine home of
Judge Emery, my nearest neighbor. dur
ing the coming season, as he is to be abb
sent for a While. l shall probably decide
to rebuild upon the same site and as far
as possible duplicate the house which was
destroyed, as that suited me in every par
ticular. | shalt return to Ellsworth just
as soon as poss bic after he adjournment
of Congress which think will be about
June or s."
