THE SITUATION At FORT KENT.
Df. Young Received an Encouraging Letter
IRON Dr.. Johnson Yesterday.

DR.. A. G. Young. secretary of the State
Board of Health. yesterday morning, re-
ceived letter from DR.. Johnson, now at
Fort Kent, representing the State Board,
which DR.. Young thinks is encouraging.
The letter was written under date of Oct.
Is, It requiring nearly three days to get
letter to this city from the afflicted
town. DR.. Johnson says that the physi-
clans are having good success in getting
control of the disease and in curing those
that are SICK. Anti-toxine is used freely
with good results. There is a new case
once in while, but not as many new
cases per day as when DR.. Johnson first
went there. The local board of health has
had considerable difficulty in managing
the people, trying to keep them away
from the homes where the disease is
known to be.
One man who had been persistent in go
Ing and coming whenever and wherever
he took notion to, has been arrested,
and the people now ~ beginning to

above may have the desired effect upon
the people. The health officer of Fort
Kent, Dr. Sirois, writes DIR. Young, under
date of the 18th of this month, that the
local boards of health in the towns
around there feel very grateful to the
State Board for sending DR.. Johnson to
their assistance. Dr. Sirois says that DR..
johnson is "a man of tact and great per-
sistency' and that he is doing all in his
power for the good of the community.

when the city had been for some
hours folded in the mantle of night and
everybody else but college students
uare in bed, sleeping the sleep of the

.othered in the banquet hall of the

The Supervisor Of Registration -ands
us the following for publications:
Please call attention to the fact that
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday,
December 9th, 7th and 9Th, are the last
days this year on which to register
The requirements for registration will
be harder to comply with after this
year. The understanding clause does
not apply after 1897. After January,
1898, the applicant for registration will
be required to read and write section
Of the constitution or to own $500 worth
OF property in order to become an elcc-
tor. Furthermore, those who register
in 1896 and 1897 are registered for life,
while the registration certificates
issued after 1897 will be valid for ten
years only, that is, there will be gen
eral re-registration every ten years,
reckoning from 1893. Urge upon all
who are qualified to become electors
and have not done so to register during
the registration days in December
become registered for life.
