" HIS is circle of jewels about as
w large az dollar set In an invisible
rim OF gold. The jewels are twelve
i'll number, and all of a different
color. Two little gold prongs
spring out from the rim, and hold exactly
i'll the center of the circle a huge pink Pearl.
At n short distance the gold prnngs are not

open circle by some magic means. In
side the pearl are all the works, and
on close observation two hair-like gold
hands can be seen revolving along the in-

Two DeputteA for Xhatc

Either the volume of business at
the sheriff's office has experienced a
marked increase, or else the present
incumbent is requiring more assist
ants TO discharge the ordinary duties
OF the office than any of his prede-
cessors did. The latter explanation
is probably the true one for having
two active deputy sheriffs on duty.
whereas under former administra-
tions of the Office one was sufficient
1t is very likely, too. that one would
answer the purpose in the case of
Sheriff Hemenway if he were dis
posed Il to so require. as one or the
other is generally on hand at the
Office in addition to the. sheriff.
1t is necessary during court ses-
sions to have greater or less num-
Der of bailiffs for service. The
present is the first time in the his
tory of the office OF sheriff that prac-
ticaly two active deputy sheriffs
have been required the year around.

horse blankets which were strewn

COIN CURIOSITIES.
Charles Fiebig Sends a ColIec-
ton to kiel University.
MANY VALUABLE PIECES INDEED.

Comprises One Of the Largest and Most
Varied Assortments OF the Exchange
Metal Ever Accommodations Note
worthy Pieces.
One Of the largest and most val
liable collections of coin gathered by
one man were forwarded to the Uni
versity of Kiel in Germany by Charles
Fiebig last evening. The coins were
the property of Mr.. Fiebig's brother,
Emil Fiebig, who died in Chicago
some time ago, and were sent to the
German institution in accordance
with request made by the deceased.
The collection comprises about five
thousand pieces and includes the
money of every nation on the globe.
beside historic medals and other
highly priced relics gathered during
the lifetime of the deceased. 1t
would be difficult to estimate the
valuation of such a large collection,
but an idea of how highly priced
some coins are can be taken from the
fact of one of the pieces being valued
at $500. This is a Jewish shekel,
which is supposed to have been made
about two hundred years before the
birth of Christ. and there are but
three of these coins now in existence,
according to the statement Of Mr..
Fiebig's brother, who was considered
as reliable authority. as he devoted
his entire life to the study of coins.
The collection includes money used
200 B. c. up to that now in circula-
ton in the different countries.
There are also many old Roman
pieces, some bearing the protiles of
julius Caesar and Caesar Angus
tus, a succeeding emperor. To
describe the collection would
require considerable time, but
suffice it to say that it contains coins
of nearly every shape, composition
and denomination. and smany such
as afford treat to handle.
Coin Gathering His Hobby.
"My brother devoted his whole
time to studying and gathering the
different kinds of money" said Mr..
Fiebig. land there was rot coin in
the lot that he could not name, nc
matter how badly defaced. Coin
gathering was his hobby and guess
he succeeded in getting almost every
kind ever in use. He was an extern
sive traveller and spent most of his
time at road. If he located a rare
coin he would have it no matter what
the cost, If it came within the extent
of his finances, and in this way spent
nearly everything he had. Before he
died he requested that these coins be
sent to some college where they would
be kept togethe,. So l have con
cluded to send them to the Uniyer.

A Youth OF Today. and One Of Yesterday.

Journal reporter was enjoying Il
short sleigh ride, Saturday, with one OF
the older residents Of Augusta, when the
small boy, Of the period sang out, Say,
give us shot, as he made the customary
overtures for preparing to hurl snowy
missile
The resident shook his head, and the
boy, stopped, made bona fide balk' in
base ball parlance, and no snow ball
came The boy was disappointed enough.
The other, too seemed to regret that
the young fellow didn't have his shot.
Things have changed since my time, -
he said well do recall how fifty ard
more of us boys used to assemble and
lombard psssers by, farmers in particular,
and no permissions were asked or thought
OF. Some times, the peltcd ones would
get after u.s. and, occasionally, one would
catch it, but never two. Any one Of the
gang would stand the chance of licking
anytime, for the good Of the cause.
Yes, I'm really sorry didn't give that
boy shot ut us -
He was polite little man.

The StockbFidge Catalogue.

The journal has received Il catalogue
for 1896 of the Bowker Fertilizer and
Stockbridge manurts. 1t is handsomely
and sets forth the claims of
the articles advertised in as attractive q
manner as could be desired. For 81 years
these fertilizers have been before the pub
lie and are well able to stand upon their
merits, although in the active competition
nowadays such an attractive way Of adj
vcrsng will not go amiss. Several of
the fine illustrations contained IN the
catalogue are from Maine fields One is
Of field Of fine cabbages raised on the
farm of H. C. Waterhouse, Cape Eliza
beth The only fertilizer used was the
Stock bridge cabbage manure. The piece
had been in grass for the previous six
years without any fertilizer, but Mr..
Waterhouse took off nearly 80 tons of cab
bages from the half acre of ground, and
the cabbages were ali fine specimens.
Another illustration is of the potato field
of John W. Dudley, Castle Hill, ARGOS
took county; 700 pounds Of fertilizer were
applied to the acre and the yield was 1926
bushels per acre Another illustration
shows a Vermont field from which 735
bushels of potatoes were taken from an
acre 1t may be recalled that in potato
raising contest under the auspices of the
American Agriculturist Chas. B. Coy Of
Pressure Isle, won the prize of $500 He
used the Stockbridge potato manure ex-
clusively and the yield was Al, sos pounds
equal to 73S bushels at go pounds each.

The farm continues to furnish attrac-

affording opportunity for them to learn
habits of industry and making them
familiar with an honorable and remuncra
tive calling that is seldom over supplied
with competent workers. The mechanical
school made an exhibition Of it's work at
the New England fair in Portland. and at
the State fair in Lewiston The fine
specimens of mechanical skill and ability
that were shown received many words of
praise and commentator that were well
deserved.
Much repairing has been done, as
shown in the expenses, $3.50.
No effort is made or allowed to interfere
with or bias the minds of the inmates on
religious matters.
The question of the religion or sect is
never asked those committed to the school
nor are they asked the religion of their
parents.
By the kindness of clcrgymen and lay
men in Portland and vicinity religious
services have been held each Sunday in

The report concludes with some very
interesting letters from boys who have
been discharged, and who are trying to
lead respectable and worthy lives. There
are also submitted reports from the teach.
