BOARD OF DENIAL EXAMINERS.
Meeting Will Be Held in Augusta, July Fl
to Examine Candidates.


The Maine State board Of dental exami-
ners will meet at the office of DR.. L. j..
Roberts. the president of the board, on
Wednesday, July q, to examine candi-
dates fer practice. Eleven applicants
have sent In their names and. 1t is ex-
pected there will be many more when the
time comes.
At the last meeting held In July, 1896
there were ~ candidates who submitted
themselves. The law has been in effect
since 1891 and DIR. Roberts says. 1t has
unquestiorably done, good work in rails
ing the standard Of practitioners. OF
course it cannot do otherwise when rig
idly enforced This fact Is well recog-
nized generally so that nearly every II
not every state has some such law. 1t
provides that no one shall practice in
Maine who has not received a license
that is none who previous to 1891, were
not established here. There was no way
to get after them, successfully. So, 1t
matters not how long dentist has prac
ticed in other states, he can't do any here
until he has received his proper certifl-
cate. This law is similar to those which
regulate physicians and druggists.

MORE THAN HOT.
The Weather Has Been Giving Us
An Awful Roast.
I've Pfsstrasisns Reported, Wedassday, with
Others vssy Near Il.

The motorman. he who gets the
weather full in the face, said It was hot,
Wednesday,. With his aquiline nose as
red as a rose, he vowed he had never
before seen anything Nike 1t. That was
in the afternoon with the thermom-
eter registering no higher than IS de-
grees at that.
1t was the humidity someone said
Others said 1t was steam. At any rate,
it was hot and there was no denying 1t.
Still. after all. the mortorman had lit
tie cause to complain for there are
others far worse off than he. Take for
instance those who work on roofs where
the sun actually seems to accumulate;
or in the kitchen where the combina-
ton OF hot air from without and hot
air from within makes mixture that
is bad. Mixtures are always bad.
The most serious case reported in the
line of prostration by heat was that Of
Arthur, Trask, the engineer of the Cres-
cent laundry on Bangor street. He was
completely overcome and. for some time
was unconscious. On. the arrival of a
physician he was so far gone, that his
pulse could with difficulty be felt.
He finally recovered and will doubtless
be all right. today.
Noft Nov, al
contractor, had a serious attack, in the
afternoon. The attack of sunstroke
which he had some years ago may have
helped to bring on the case. At any
rate, while on Water street, opposite
Bowditch & Webster's store, where he
was working, he grew dizzy but did not
lose consciousness. He was taken into
the store and recovered.
Two of the workmen on the Nash
schoolhouse were overcome, Tuesday
afternoon, but their cases did not prove
serious.
A sudden drop in temperature came
as relief to all, Wednesday evening.
about 645. The thermometer was at
that time nearly IS degrees when a sud-
den breeze sprung up from the east
bringing with it mist that was like
a balm. 1t overspread the sky and
fastened on a night that was well

more. The through sleeper for Quebec
via the Maine Central is being
well patronized in both directions and
it would seem that no more ideal way
could be had than by leaving Portland
at 1.35 P. NJ. over the White Mountain
Division, passing through the Crawford
Notch, then remaining at the Fabyans

of the orchestra, and leaving there on
the arrival of the train from Boston
and reaching Quebec the following

about $4,000.
The second hearing was before Judge

in equity on a supplemental bill filed by
Eben w. Freeman, ESQ.,, of Portland, at
torney for Annie w. Davis of Boston,
stakeholder in the Land and Industrial
Co. The bill prayed that the decree ap.
pointing a receiver might be vacated and
that the defendant company might be adj

Among those presents at the hearings
were ex-Mayor Hanson and DR.. Kilgore

The location of the property owned by
the company is well known as being
grand in opportunities for development
into an ideal resort. Among the features
is cove into which water may be adj
mfted from the ocean, then damned
across the narrow mouth, giving It \
chance to warm. The bottom is very
sandy. Fishing is fine down there. and
with the increasing prosperity. the pro-
moters hope to stand the company on its
feet and make a great resort of the
property.

Maine Pharmaceutical Excursion.

From the nature of their profession,
druggists are about as distinctly social
a class of people as one finds on the
earth, and when they go off on excur-
sions they manage to have a CORES
pondingly good time. If compelled to
find a reason for this pleasing peculiar
ity, it would not be easy, but it GER
tainly is fact that they are, as a class,
what pass for being first rate nice
men.
Augusta will be well represented at
the excursion. Among those who have
gone or who expect to so, today, are
the following: H. z. Bowditch, J. f.
Young. c. K. Partridge, F. r. Part
ridge, John Coughlin, DIR. F. w. Kins-
man and w. E. Percival, clerk for c.

mouth House. The programme in
cludes many ways of entertainment
with trip to Riverton park and excur-
Sions about the harbOr, not to mention
banquet. Perhaps the fact that the
Kennebec County Druggists Associa-
ton is to have it's meeting at some
time during the two days of the other
will serve to increase the attendance
from this section. At any rate, more
interest than usual seems to be taken
this summer

An interesting decision was made,
Wednesday. on a hearing before Judge
G. T. Stevens In the probate court, rela-

ties named.
The question arose under the collateral
inheritance law, whether the 500 ex-
empted from taxation by law should be
taken only from the $4,000. or as many
as there were legatces. Judge Stevens
decided that the $500 be deducted but
once, as it was impossible to determine
how many legatees there might be.
