President Approves Senate Bill.

Washington, May 1O.-President McKin-
ley has gone over the tariff bill with Sen
ators Allison, Aldrich and Hanna. After
a careful examination the President ex-
pressed approval in a general way of the
Senate committees bill, in so far as it
makes reductions in the House schedules
and promises a larger revenue. He did
not extend his approval to the entire
amended bill, but agreed with the reduc-
tons and some other particular features.
He expressed himself as favoring re-
duction of 10 cents on whiskey, which
would bring it to a better revenue point
the increase on beer, ON political grounds,
but Mr.. Hanna thought the difficulties
politically to come from this increase had
been exaggerated, and they finally all
agreed that the increase was all right.

Thompson also had about $50 seed Holsters
for the fish commission schooner Gram

group of spectators watched the officers at
noon and admired the skill with which
they detected the seed Holsters and re-
moved the eggs from them. They were
then taken out to the Grampus and placed
IN a glass jar containing water. The eggs
Will be taken to the hatchery at
gloucester, Mass, as the nearest one
available. There is growing interest
| among the lobster dealers in this city in
the lobster Matching business and it is
quite probable that it may result in Port
land having lobster pound at no distant
date, If the cooperation of all the dealers
can be had. The officers on the Grampus
say it would be direct benefit to all en-.
gagged in the traffic in this vicinity and
state that there is no reason why large
quantities should not be Matched from the
eggs. At the Matching at Woods Holl last
season over eighty million were Matched
from eggs taken from these seed Holsters

Revenue on Distilled Spirits.

Washington, May 10.-In reply to a Sen
ate resolution as to the effect Of the pres
ent rate of internal revenue tax on dis
titled spirits, the collection of revenue,
ETC., Secretary Gage today replied that
according to the tables of previous years
the highest revenue rate would be 70
cents per gallon. He recommends a rate
of SO CENTS and if the reduction be made
a return to the bonded period of three
years. Among other changes he recon-
mended is, that a special tax of not less
than $500 or more than $1,000 per annum
be imposed on the industry of distilling,
to be determined by the capacity of the
distillery; that only stills having ca
pacity of 20 gallons or more shall be en-
Titled to registry and permitted to ope-
rate. The secretary says the present trade
Of tax has had the effect of greatly in
creasing illicit distilling.

When an incident like the following
occurs right here at home it is bound
to carry weight with our readers. So
many strange occurrences go the rounds
of the press, are published as facts, when
the intelligent reader knows they cannot
be true, there is no wonder that people
become skeptical. On one subject skepti-
cism is rapidly disappearing. This is due
to the actual personal experiences of our
citizens, and their public utterances re-
garding them. The doubter must doubt
no more in the face of such evidence as
this. The public statement of Il reputa-

SUPERIOR COURT.
BEFORE JUDGE BoNNEY.

Monday-Geo S. Mclaughlin brought
suit against the Grand Trunk Railway to
recover for personal injuries sustained by
him on the 9th of June, 1896. His story is
that he came from New York where he
works as a printer, down to Maine on a
vacation. He wanted to go to Lewiston
to see the place, went down to the Grand
Trunk depot to take the train but missed
it, Therefore he started on the highway
and when two or three miles out took the
railroad intending to walk to Falmouth,
and there purchase ticket and take the
train. Before reaching the station he saw
freight train approaching and stepped
off and up the bank, and while standing
at distance of thirty feet from the train
as 1t was passing, board from a car
loaded with lumber, was caught by the
wind, blown off striking him in the leg.
knocking him down and fracturing one
of the bones below the knee. He claims
that he was incapacited from work for
two months or more and lays his damages
at three thousand dollars.
After the evidence for the plaintiff was
all before the jury, Mr.. Strout counsel
for the Grand Trunk moved for a non
suit, which the court ordered, on the
ground that the plaintiff had shown no
negligence on the part of the company,
but had shown that he himself was negli-
gent; that when a person voluntarily
travels upon the tracks or location of a
railroad company, he takes the risk of
danger and accident incident to the
proper business of the road in running its
cars and transporting merchandise; that
such person is not even licensee but a
mere trespasser, and the company owes
him no duty arising from any contractual
relations between them
d. A. Meaher appeared for the plaintiff
and A. A. Strout and G. A. Hight for
the defendant.
The traverse jury was excused until
Thursday morning. The grand jury will
report some time Tuesday

Women on tho School Board.
To the Editor of the Press:

10 GHo 1OttOT " tU6 IT6SSs
l wish this amendment called for seven
women on the school board instead of
three. The children are entitled to the
united judgment of men and women in
the planning and directing of their edu-
cation. The only fair way to treat child
rem is to have an equal number of both
sexes on the board. If we cannot have
seven let us have three. To be sure the
teachers are mostly women, but they
have nothing to do with school curricu-
lum, arrangement of studies, or cleanli-
ness and sanitary condition of the school
houses. Experience teaches me that
women take more interest in the health
of their children than fathers do.
Women are the natural educators. 1t is
wrong to deprive the child of woman S
influence, insight, and moral instinct in
the direction of school room affairs. 1t
would be equally wrong to deprive the
child of mans Judgment. The only right
way is to combine the two. Ishall con-
slider it decided advantage to my two
