Ths sams Old Complaint.

As the years have come and gone there
mas been more or less complaint from the
patrons of the theatre that the noise
made by some OF the spectators borders
on disgrace. 1t seems Impossible for
some people to remain quiet when there
are lines that the other people who are
watching the play want to hear. These
noisy ones take just that moment to
move around. 1t is astonishing how
many people go to the theatre Just for
the sake of laughing at the comedian and
never pay any attention to the tragedy
part. Then the cat-calls and shrieking
whistles are nuisances that should bt.
stopped some way. Mr.. Chase will do
well to establish police ut the entrance to
the hall for the purpose OF preventing the
gathering OF crowd of boys who make
1t business for the evening to beg for
money to get into the hall with. smoke
cigarettes. filling the vestibule full of
smoke. and then when the piece gets to
be interesting to those inside. the kids
get up wrestling match and we have
two shows at the same time, one seen
and the other unseen.

She Qsaksd a Little. Thaak You,

Did the earth about Waterville quake.
Saturday? Do you think we would let a
thing like an earthquake pass us by? Nit.
We got ii on time and all there was of
it. just as we do other fashionable things
1t was a few minutes past o'clock when
we were startled by the rafting of dishes
in our pantry and on the sideboard. and
the shaking of the doors. We at first
thought that it was the children at play
up stairs. but when we reflected that the
children were just going to school, we
came to the conclusion that there was
something wrong with the hemisphere.
Yes. it was a genuine earthquake. There
were several shocks of about five seconds
duration.
The quake knocked n few vases Off the
shelves at the residence of DIR. Butler on
College avenue. 1t broke glass in a house
on Ticonic street. it woke the midday
sleeper on Brook street. it drove the peo-
pie out of doors on Summer street, it
wabbled the house of the merchant on
Silver street. and 1t is said, although we
do not believe it. that it set the door bells
ringing on Main street. The grocery
store is said to have suffered and the
pedestrian to have lost his equilibrium.
Anyway. it was an earthquake and it
struck Waterville. 1t is possible that the
powers that be thought this city needed
a shaking up. and it is safe to say we got
it, Reports from the surrounding towns
indicate that other sections got it just
where we did.

Is Your Mail Disiniected?

Postmaster Thayer called the atten.
ton of the Journal yesterday to the
method resorted to by the postoffice
department to prevent the spread OF
disease. All mail that comes from the
South or the fever infected sections of
the country must be disinfected. Mr..
Thayer did not know just how the
thing was done but said that since the
yellow fever had got hold in the
South. the mail coming from the sec
ton was punched full of SMALL holes.
The wrapper looks as though it had
been stepped on by river driver with
a new pair of calked shoes. Mr.. Thayer
says that this is the method taken 10
fumigate the mail, and he would like
for the patrons of his office, who re-
ceive their mail punched full of holes
to understand that no one has been
taInpering with it except to prevent the
spread of disease and to that he hopes
no one will object-if they do they can
not help themselves. The punching of
the mail does not in any way destroy
the contents or make the writing
illegible.

arrived. and had the Colby football team
hard mt work. Tuesday afternoon. MI
Wharton is n regular giant in build. and

tic Waterville correspondent of the Ken
ncbec Journal. Well. what's the matter
with getting up a purse and hiring him {?
Or isn't he in the market like Scannell
and Gibbons? g. n
1t has been some time since the sport
ing editor of the Commercial relieved
himself of his spleen in one of his char
acteristic and pleasant remarks like the
foregoing. Last fali and spring , he
harped away on the same string until
everybody got tlisg,sted. He made the
statement that Gibbons and Scannell were
"merccnary' players-whatever that may
mean-so many times that some of the
simple folks up at u the University of
Maine really believed what he said. A
Colby professor. in conversation with a
University of Maine student during the
summer vacation. was good deal sur
prised and not a little amused to learn
that the prevailing belief at Orono was
that Gibbons and Scannell were hired to
play on the Colby athletic teams by the
trustees of the institution. The Univer-
Sity of Maine student, accustomed to the
paternal friendliness of the State in help
ing to pay for Il cinder track at Orono
and contributing in other ways toward
the support of athletics, could not realize
at first how foolish the assumption was
that the Colby trustees would hire play
ers for the athletic teams of the college.
but the professor finally disabused his
mind of the notion.
This year Mr.. Gibbons is at Yale. while
Mr. Scannell has returned to Colby. where
he will play on the football and baseball
teams, a privilege which belongs to him
as fairly AS 1t does to any member of a
college athletic team in the State. But
the Commercial must have it's little fling
and it will probably continue to talk
about ColbyS mercenaries until the end
of the chapter. The writer of it's sporting
column matter ought to reflect upon the
fact that it is almost as bad to be mean"
as it is to be 'mercenary.-

The niphthefia Scare.

| Just now the board of health is occupied
| in watching the children in that section
| of the city in and around TicOnic street.
Sunday, Sept. 10. the 6-years-old child of
| Louis Latlip of Ticonic street, was taken
| i'll. The parents. probably in order to
| save the expense of a physician, treated
the child themselves. assisted by a num-
| Der of neighbors. Thursday evening, DIR.
w. M. Bessey was called to see the child
| and he at once saw that the case was a
very pronounced one of diphtheria. DR..
Bessey administered anti-toxine as the
| only thing to be done, but he had no hope
| of saving the child, as the disease was
| too far advanced. The child died, the
next day.
Saturday. another child of the same
| family was taken i'll and the doctor was
called. He found that it was another case
of diphtheria, but he gave the child heroic
treatment and, last night it was doing
very well. This last child had been al
lowed to attend school during the illness
of the other until Thursday. when DR..
Bessey called the attention of the board
of health to the case and suggested a
rigid quarantine of the house, even to the
| extent Of placing an officer on guard at
the house to maintain the strictest quar-
antine. Whether or not the disease is
checked remains to be seen.
DR.. Bessey the elder. yesterday told
the Journal that be had been called to
see another child in the same section of
the city, but the doctor would not state
that the case was that of diphtheria but
If 1t Is. DR.. Bessey knows what to do.
Now the question arises. how many chill
dren that have been exposed to the dis
ease by association with the Latlip chill
dren and with their own. parents, who
rushed by the score to the aid Of the Lat
lip family.
Dr. Bessey says that when he went to
the house he found 1t full of neighbors,
and it is stated on good authority that
even after Dr. Bessey had ordered quar-
antine, the neighbors still fiocked into the
house. Several of them said they were
not afraid of catching the disease, and
they. posed as martys to charity The
people are ignorant and did not stop to
think of the danger to others. their own
chi.Aren surely, by visiting the infected
house. Here at least were score of peo-

II Was Better Than His Own.

Friday a commercial man entered
the establishment of w. p. Stewart 4
co. displaying some samples Of coffee
that he was handling. Just at the
door sat barrel of coffee just received
by the firm and the drummer stood
near it. A customer came in and en-
gagged the attention of the member OF
the firm that was on duty in that part
of the store. They went to the rear OF
the store for something. Returning
suddenly, Mr.. Stewart saw the drum
mer refilling his sample cases from the
barrel. The drummer left the store
and Mr.. Stewart says that he is sure II
one thing and that is If the customers
of the drummer get as good as pthe
samples show up they will get as good
as there is going, but he fails to see
how the drummer is going to make his
samples and sales meet
