| General William F. Higgins late of New
| port, but formerly prominent citizen of
| Thorndike, died Aug. IS, at the home Of his
son in Maiden, Mass, where he went to
visit He was stricken with paralysis, from
which he suffered two and half years.
Gen. Higgins was born April ", 1906, in
Thorndike, where he lived the greater part
of his life He was the eldest son of Rev.
Joseph Higgins, who was one OF the early
settlers of Thorndike. Gen. Higgins ac-
quired a good common school education
with the added advantages of several terms
at the China Academy. He taught school
about twenty-five years. He was thrice
married. His first wife was Miss Phebe
Coffin, the second, Miss Temperance Sturges
the third, Mrs Mary Webb. There were
five children by the first marriage and one
by the second marriage. Four children sur
vive him. He experienced religion in 1916
and became member of the Free Baptist
church, and was a deacon OF that church
about twenty-five years dating from 1913,
after which until his death he remained
honorary deacon. He held several impor-

town. He was prominent participant in
militia affairs in the thirties and early
forties, and in 1886 was elected captain of
militia. In 1889 he was promoted to Lieut..
Colonel. When the State Militia was called
out for the Aroostook war Colonel Higgins
was detailed and was waiting orders to
move to the front with bis command mean
time the boundary affairs were being tenn
porarily adjusted, making further move
ments unnecessary. In 1871 Colonel Hig-
gins was commissioned Brigadier General
and took command of the Second Brigade of
Maine Militia. Gen. Higgins was an extern
sive reader, had broad range of ideas, was
we'll informed on all the leading affairs and
had wide knowledge of men and events of
earlier times. He had strong attachment
for his native place and as he was passing
his last days his thoughts often reverted to
the scenes it would have been very gratify-
ing to him to have visited once more before
the end. His remains were brought to
Thorndike for interment in the Centre Gene
terry, Rev. David Bracket officiating at the
funeral.

A Thermometer on Ranges,

new but practical idea which reduces
cooking to science but at the same time is
so simple that our housekeepers are quite
enthusiastic over it. The thermometer is ar
ranged on the oven door in such way that
the exact heat of the oven can be letermin-
ed without opening the door. If the oven is
too not or too cold it's simply matter of
regulating the drafts. 1t insures perfect
baking, which to our young housekeepers is
great boom, and to the up-to-tlate cook is
an actual necessity. It's the Glenwood
Range which has this device, and, by the
way, the Glenwood is so completely lp-to-
date it looks as though it would displace
every other range in our locality. There is
a Heater these same people make that IS
said to be as perfect, III its way as their
