been for several seasons following the big
maekerel fleet which bovers about the
Maine coast every ulnmer and it's officers
and the scientists who belong on this
vessel have made q thorough study OF the
mackerel and it's habits. Capt. Briee
finally resolved to experiment with tie
artificial Matching of the mackerel and
this summer sent the United States Fish
Commission steamer Fish Hawk" to
Caseo Bay ito begin the work. This
steamer under the command of Lieut.
Franklin Swift Of tue United States
Navy is now anchored off the landing OF
the Harpswell Bay Steamboat company
at Orr's island and there the work of
Matching mackerel and lobster eggs is
going merrily on with very successful re-
suits.
This steamer, which was built and
designed especially for fish Matching and
other scientific experiments, was built
in 1880 by Pussy & Jones of Wilmington,
Delaware, and cost $40. 600. She has an
iron hull with wooden skin holted on
over it, Her length is 156 feet, with
beam of ~ feet 6 inches and draught
of about feet. Her displacement is Al
tons gross or 205 tons net. Her crew con-
slsts Of ~ officers and MEN. Besides her
commander, who is a regularly commits
stoned Officer of the navy, her officers are
boatswain f. a Dram and Mate James
A. Smith besides a doctor, chief. en-
gineer, clerk and draughtsmau.
The officers and men arc furnished and
paid by the Navy department. ard are
under the same regulations as the rest of
the navy although the discipline on
board the "Fish Hawk" is not as severe
as it is on 8 man~o'-Nar. The men en-
list for ono year for special service" and
their duties are comparatively light.
Nearly ell of them have been engaged in
the work Tor a number Of years, are in
telligent and thoroughly competent sea-
men besides being perfectly familiar with
the fish Matching business.
The "Fish Hawk'a'' work has been
varied and valuable. She has done q
great deal of of shore dredging for which
she is very well equipped and last winter
she made a complete survey Of Appa-
lachicola Bay in Florida to determine
the value and extent of the oyster beds
This spring she Matched out over two
hundred million eggs of the shad in the
Delaware River and the shad fry were
shipped to all points along the coast by
rail, in the especially equipped Fish Com
mission cars, built for the purpose, to be
released in many of tie rivers of New
England and the Middle Atlantic states.

At night when the drag net fishermen
go out to set their nets member of the

There are perhaps. dozen or more of

Judge Savage a Candidate.

H. W. Cakes, ESQ.,, said to Lewiston
journal reporter yesterday, when asked if
his law partner, Hon. \. R. Savage of
Auburn, would be a candidate for np-
poinment to the Supreme Bench to suo-
ueed Judge Walton at the expiration of
his present term: Il can say very
briefly all there is to be said.
Judge Savage will be IL candidate in
case Judge Walton should announce his
decision not to accept re-appointment,
but it does not seem fitting that any
action be taken by his friends in advance
of public statement from Judge Walton.
However, you can say positively that at
the proper time. in case of vacancy
judge Savage's name will be p resented
and bis appointment vigorously urged"

Last Saturday night some hoodlums
broke into the ball grounds and among
other acts of vandalism dipped the flag
which was purchased by the association
this sum mer into pail of yelIoT paint.
Of course it is no use to try to find
language to express the feelings which q
decent man must entertain toward an
act of this sort, but couple of weeks Of
unbroken victories and the pennant at
the end of the season wouldn't be half so
satisfactory as to see the guilty ones ap-
pretended.
Not victory does Manager Leonard
and his men bring home in their scalp
belts. We had right to expect little
better things than that.

CAPTAIN KTLLILEA'S CASE.

1t is probable that Police Captain Thomas Killilea,
who was on Friday acquitted OF the criminal
charge of receiving 800 from the managers OF inc
Yale Princeton football game OF 1892 for which no
was under Indictment will be restored TO duty by
the Police Board. He is now under suspension.
Commissioner Andrews was seen yesterday relative
to the report that the Captain might nave 70
answer charges before the Police Board. Mr. An.
drews was prepared TO say what action wouio
be taken In Killilea's case. -,
The general impression is that the Captain will
not be brought up on charges before the Board It
has been the custom for years for the managers OK

Captain Klea was for this purpose, 1t IS con-;

great commercial depression the instances cited

An important statement to be made about pur-
chases Of Petit Manan lots at the present time
is that they will be free from taxation until the
year 1903 This arrangement has been made
with the proper authorities and, Of course is
very valuable. 1t affords an opportunity OF buy
Ing one or more lots now and then letting them
remain for the rise in value which Is sure 10
come. The company will sell lot ooxloo' con-

the lots will be beautifully located. few thou-

Petit Manan Land and Industrial Company.
The gentlemen who have undertaken to de-
velop the peninsula Of Petit Manan realize that
the large profits which the enterprise permits
Of must be widely dist 'buted. Otherwise their
operations will halt and drag and perhaps in a
measure fail. Accordingly they have placed the
whole tract Of land. amounting to 1855 acres
in the possession Of company, and by hav-
ing a large number Of stockholders they ex-
pect to diffuse the profits Of the venture all over
the country
There Is no question about the advantages
of Petit Manan 1t ic an ideal spot for land
enterprise. The company owns all the land on
the peninsula. Hence in improving their own
property they do not do this for some else's
benefit. In majority of cases WHARF party
improves a piece Of land his, efforts are COM
pletely nullifed by some neighbor who does
not do anything but who yet by underselling
prevents the enterprising man from making any
profit. At Petit Manan this cannot be the case.
Every dollars worth Of improvements put on
the place inures to the benefit Of property on
the peninsula
We regard the chance for the formation Of
on exclusive social set at Petit Manan as quite
remarkable It has opportunities In this respect
far ahead Of Newport. 1t IS a well-known fact
that society at Newport is constantly being en-
croached upon. and it s very difficult for society
at Newport to keep to itself. At Petit Manan
this can be entirely regulated. Being penin-
sula there is only way Of reaching the resi-
dence portion and this Is across a narrow neck
of land Residences cannot be built upon this.
and hence Petit Manan IS .afe from the In
trusion Of all other persons other than those
who buy property of the present company. 1t
will only require little determination in the
selling OF property in order that a very select
set shall become residents of Petit Manan. and
when once it becomes exclusive 1t will always
remain So We think this feature in time Will
make property at Petit Manan very valuable,
