Postmaster Recommended.

Congressman Burleigh, after giving
the matter his most careful consideration
and patient investigation, has endorsed
the application of Oramel Murray of
Pittsfield, for postmaster of that town.
The case was full of embarrassment for
Mr. Burleigh aud in deciding it he was
animated solely by what appeared to
him, under all the circumstances, to be
the right thing to do. The contest has
been long one aud an earnest Que.
Mr.. Benjamin F. Mathews. the other
candidate, is an active. earnest Republi-
can, an energetic business man, and has
put up great fight for the place. Pitts
held is fighting ground. Such cases are
fought TO the finish, there, warmly and
earnestly and then, the case in hand
is dropped, Mr. Murray, the successful
applicant. is prominent citizen of Pitts
field, for many years one of the most
active workers for Republican success in
that town, especially years ago when it
was close town. He is now a member
of the town committee and has been for
several years. He has served repeatedly
on the board of selectmen of the town,
and as chairman of the board. He is a
courteous gentleman of ability and bust
ness experience, whom long acquaint-
anee with the people and interests of
the town, must make particularly
acceptable as a public official. We do
not understand that any question was
raised as to the fitness of either candi-
date. We believe the people of Pittsfeld
will be served intelligently, faithfully
and promptly by Mr.. Murray as post
master.

Two Kinds of Gardens.

Most of us have met the two kinds Of
gardens which Alfred Austin, the Eng
lish poet, dlflerentiates as owners gar
dens and gardeners gardens According
to the poet laureate, nearly all the
grand and costly gardens are gardeners
gardens. And then he alludes to the
small cottage gardens, little village
or secluded plats, cultivated and made
beautiful by the pathetic expedients OF
the poor, "&hicT sccm to hdea's charm
that the others cannot rival. 1t is in
deed the glory of our beloved art that
it is open to the rich and poor alike.
The former seek to make much of it, the
latter find some Of their sweetest joys
and delights therein. 1t is one of the
commonest of events for the poor to
grow flowers SO handsome and SO
abundant that a monarch might well
envy their success. Flowers are the ap.
propriate gift of love. IL 1t strange,
therefore, that success in their culture
seems to be largely in proportion as we
love them?-Nlck S Magazine

The newly discovered rich gold fields
in Yukon are creating excitement on the
Pacific coast exceeding anything of the
past history in mining for the precious
metal. The stories of fabulous wealth
acquired by few months mining upon
the Yukon river and tributaries, has
caused thousands to embark for that
modern ''El Dorado Thousands of
them are destined TO disappointment,
and many to disaster and suffering. The
country is 1000 miles from California
and Oregon, and those who start now
will reach the fields of operation but
little before the severe winter of that
inhospitable cline comes on. A large
proportion of those who throw up good
wages or lucrative business, are liable TO
become impoverished and broken in
health by exposure if they survive. The
risks are very great but nothing can de-
ter the seekers for gold, No hazard is
too great for them.

establish law school in Bangor, to be

an appropriation to build cinder track
on the athletic field.

Thus far it seems to be an unbound

absurd, giving as one reason that Spain
has more to fear than gain from Japan
and that the latter. country desires pos

The quicksilver seizes the gold and
makes it prisoner. They say. how
ever, that three-auarters of q million
dollars' worth of gold gets away from
them every year and washes down the
creek. Some consider this q rather
high estimate, but the fact that men
make good wages by working in the
water down the creek shows that q
large quantity of gold goes to waste
every year.
When the quicksilver has its hands
full of gold the tables are scrapcd and
the amalgam wrapped in large cloths,
like towels, and wrung and squeezed
by hand. The quicksilver bursts
through the meshes of the cloth in
shiny globules until the ball of ANAL
gam is reduced to the size of goose
egg. when the gold is melted out OF it.

his hat beneath it. Lizzie began to

Jack tried to lose interest in the couple.
