On the door OF an old barn in Hancock
may be seen these words: The big
moose killed in Narraguagus lake April
ID, 1s44-four feet of snow on level. =
In hat brief record, made by Slept hen
Joy, one of the early settlers OF Hancock
who has long since passed to the ther
shore, is told the story of the last and
most exciting moose hunt III this section
of the State. 1t is a record too Of some
remarkable Weather. That winter and
that moose hunt are still remembered by
some Of the Older residents of Hancock
and the younger generatio has heard OF
it handed down from father to SON
The track OF large moose was seen by
some Hancock men passing through
Cherry field woods, and on the morning
OF April 10. 1914, men and dogs started
after the moose. The snow WAS four feet
deep, and the crust was strong enough to
bear the weight Of a man. Thus it was
an easy matter to run down the moose
and he WAS killed near Narraguagus lake,
or Spring River pond, as it is now called
The moose weighed ten hundred pounds.
The animal was cut up where he fell,
and the meat that could not be carried
was left to rot in the woods. The meat
which WAS taken home WAS distributed
and every family in Hancock had taste
of that moose.

for the purpose of reorganization.
Mrs. Sarah P. Alger was reelected
president, Hannah c. w. Bentley
vice president. Julia A. Mac Donald
secretary and treasurer. The
organization purposes buying land
and planting a mulberry orchard,
building a cocoonery ard going ito
work producing silk IN manner fer
profit and pleasure, and we trust
that they will receive ample encour-
agement that the industry may be
made success. This climate lis
admirably adapted to the growthof
the mulberry and silk worms, there
having been as fine ceooons pro-
duced in this vicinity as any where
on the globe, and we are sure that
if the business is property managed
it will not he long before our COM
munity can compete with the i'm
portations from France land Italy, in
quality, at least, if not in price.
The work of feeding and taking
care of the worms is light and can
be performed by women and child
rem, netting them profit that
cannot be earned lin other ways. 1t
is hoped that Congress win make an
appropriation to aid in erecting a
filature SO that there will be no need
of exporting the 'cocoons, but that
everything can be done here, even
to the manufacturing of the cloth.

ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON'S ST. IVES.

Being the Adventures Of French Prisoner
in England,
Stevenson's hero is typical young
French soldier whom the fortune of war
has placed in the hands of the English.
When we first make his acquaintance
he is a prisoner in Edinburg Castle.
Being of noble birth and attractive ap-
pearance, he speedily makes a. favor
able impression on one of the young
ladies' who visit the luckless captives,
and he resolves to make her his wife
at the first opportunity. He and few
comrades escape from prison on dark
night and then his adventures begin.
Fl through his lawyer he learns that a
very wealthy relative in England in
tends to make him his heir and so he
decides to visit his relative. Of his
journey through Scotland into England
glowing account is given and many
scenes are desrcibed with that truth,
simplicity and vigOr which are among
Robert Louis Stevenson's chief char
acteristics.
Not without opposition does the es-
capped captive succeed to his wealthy
relatives estate. A certain fiery and
profiigate cousin of his has long looked
upon himself as the heir, and his fury
at finding himself disinherited can we'll
be imagined. For months, too, after
leaving the castle of Edinburgh, the
rash young hero finds himself in con-
slant danger of being arrested as a
fugitive, and the main charm of the
book lies in the skill with Ihich the
author portrays the many stirring in
cidents that rapidly followed each other
during this period. Of these incidents
probably the most interesting is the
heros tramp with the two taciturn yet
kind-hearted drovers. All the Incl
dents and characters in the book. how
ever, are admirably portrayed. and no
doubt the many admirers of the gifted
story teller will give this final produc-
tion of his a cordial welcome Charles

THE X-RAY'S VALUE
Demonstrated in Its Use by Wheeling Ply
sicians Last Week

Several publications have been made
concerning the case of six-year-old
daughter Of c. w. Hill, of Point Mills,
member of the firm of Hill Bros, coal
and lumber dealers, all of which have
been more or less incorrect.
The little girl, Yvette, swallowed an
open safety pin Monday afternoon, and
in the evening was brought to this
city. The pin was located by the use
of the Roentgen rays, and an unsuc-
cessful effort was made to remove it
through the mouth. On Thursday the
child was photographed by the X-rays,
and the pin was located about an
inch below where it was first found.
Thursday evening an operation was
performed by which the pin was
pushed into the stomach. There were
present Drs. Reed, Dickey, Hildreth,
Wilson, Hupp and Wingerter. The
child is now improving, and it is the
intention, within a few days, to per-
form an operation upon the stomach.

MR.. fIoTTMANN's ENTERPRISE

One of the things for which Delmon-

ly famous is the excellence of their
coffee. 1t is made from the celebrated
Ambrosia coffee, from Fishers mills
With characteristic enterprise Mr.. A
HOFFMAN, proprietor of the popular
restaurant at No. 1925 Market street
opposite the postoffice, has secured this
coffee and will hereafter serve it to his
patrons. Samples of the excellent
brand are on exhibition in his show
windows. Mr.. Hottmann's table ser
vice is the best in the city, price con-
sidered, and this fact accounts for his
remarkably large and rapidly increas-
ing patronage.
