Literary Notes.

Mark Twain cables from Vienna
to deny the rumor that he is out OF
debt and the Hartford Courant says
he still owes 1850, 900 on account
of the failure Of the publishing house
of G.. L. Webster & Co. tits expected
that the royalty from his new book,
Following the Equator" will event
ually pay off this obligation. The
book is expected daily and advance
pages have already appeared from it
in McClure's for November. The
story in McClure's is illustrated by
A. B. Frost and Peter Newell and is
a rare feast OF humor.
Harper's Round Table has ceased
to be published as a weekly and will
appear hereafter in monthly form.
Stories, of course, will be the princi-
pal feature Of the paper in its new
dress, just as they were it's leading
feature in the past; but the Round
Table will now have the advantage
of offering longer stories and more of
them in each issue than it's restricted
size made possible in former days.
The plans for the coming year include
the publication of three serials: "The
Adventures" by H. B. Marriott
Watson; -Four for a Fortune" by
Albert Lee; and "The Copper Prin-
cess" by Kirk Munroe.
Harper & Brothers have begun the
publication in England and America
of a new weekly to be known as Lit
erature. 1t will be published at 81
year or 10 cents copy and H. D.
Thrall will be the editor. The first
number contains new poem by
Rudyard Kipling. 1t is about seven
inches by ten inches, perhaps the
most convenient of sizes for easy
handling. There will be only two
columns on each page, printed in large
type upon paper of excellent quality.
The number of pages will vary from
twenty.four to thirty-four. according
to the activity OF the publishing sea-
son and the importance of the books
to be reviewed. There is to be a
specially designed GOVERN two colors.
Literature will be published weekly
at 10 cents a copy, or $500 year.
The November magazine number of
The Outlook, in addition to several
profusely and finely illustrated arti-
cles, has as notable feature the ad-
dress lately delivered by President
Eliot of Harvard University before
the Brooklyn Institute on the Func-
ton of Education. Inadequate re-
ports of this address were printed at
the time. President Eliot has kindly
revised the entire address for The
Outlook, and it is now printed in
full. Those who heard it agree that
this is one of the most important ad'
dresses dealing with it's general sub
ject which have ever been delivered
in this country. 1t deserves and will
have the widest possible reading. ($a

The Vermont Trip to Tennessee.

When travelling with party where the
programme for the trip has been marked
out in advance and time is limited one IS
pretty constantly occupied in sightseeing.
He goes to bed late at night and is
reused from sound sleep early in the
morning to be told that breakfast is
ready and that the train orcarriages will
start for some place at 7 O'Clock sharp.
Being kept on the continual move in
specting public buildings, beautiful mon
uments, famous historical places, etc.,
etc.. is hard work, tiresome, and steady
day at it leaves one with aching feet and
a majority of the bones in the body in
similar condition. Still at the end Of the
day there is strong yearning to inspect
two more things-a good meal and a
good bed. Under these conditions the
newspaper representatives present en-
deavor to keep he readers of their papers
informed of what the party are doing.
The letters sent back are hurredly writ
ten, usually on the train and when the
writer is half asleep, and many things
worthy of a paragraph are forgotten in
the hurry. The above is an excuse for
what is to follow.
The Vermont party left the historic
town of Gettysburg at 2 O'Clock Thurs
day afternoon, Oct. Ia, and two hours
later were being transferred through the
busy city OF Baltimore to the pier Of the
York River Line. A little after FIVE our
boat started on its journey down the
Chesapeake bay to West Point. The
evening part of the voyage was most
pleasant, but in the morning we found
ourselves enveloped in fog so dense
that it was possible to see only a few
feet ahead of the boat. Speed had to be
slackened andwe were thus put an hour OF
two behind. We passed two or three
boats that were only visible when within
about 20 feet of US. The boats appeared
to be making straight for each other but
the pilots steered them safely by.
Our stop at West Point was brief, just
long enough to transfer passengers and
baggage from boat to train. 1t is q
town of 5000 or more inhabitants with
its busiest locality evidently at tn.

Our special train took us from tn

OF negroes transferring baggage at abou

Harbor Happenings.

The water front was practically desert
ed Saturday afternoon. Every one had
seized the opportunity offered by the fine
weather and the half holiday to go off
bicycling, yachting or pleasure seeking
of some kind and the result was that very
few people were to be found about the
business part of the street. A very few
vessels arrived and among them were
quite a number of small yachts which
put in here for harbor over Sunday.
The steamer Aucocisco went out during
the afternoon for her trial trip. She had
only the officials of the Harpsweil Steam
boat companion board and the run was
made about the lower bay in order to test
the steamers boilers and engine.
The bark S. R. Lyman has gone on tc
the marine railway and after being re-
paired she will go to the river with 8
cargo Of lumber.
The steamer John Englis arrived Sat-
urday afternoon from New York with a
big cargo of freight and large number
of passengers.
The fire boat has been thoroughly over
hauled and Saturday she came off the
railway and was towed across the harbo1
to her berth alongside Portland Pier.
The steamer Island Belle arrived al
Rockland Friday night after delay Of
two or three days owing to bad weather
She is expected to reach Portland the
| first of the week.

Treasurer Collins on Trial.

Tallahassee, Fla, May 3l.-In
the senate this morning, sitting
as a "high court of impeach-
ment," State Treasurer G. B.
Collins was presented at the bar
by proclamation of the sergeant
alarms, and the house impeach-
ment committee was notified of
the same.
Mr.. Collins appeared in the
crowded senate chamber alone,
and without council, which he de-
clared ne had not yet had time to
engage.
In response to inquiry from
Chief Justice Taylor, Mr.. Collins
asked that he be allowed time in
which to prepare his pleadings,
and named thirty days.
The point was raised by Sena-
tor Palmer, of Columbia county,
whether Gne respondent desired
to present his answer then, or
simply fix the date of trial, and
on motion of the same gentleman
it was finally decided that a plea
of not guilty could be put in issue
to all pleadings, special or other
wise, and the rules were so
amended.
Eleven o'clock Thursday morn
ing was then fixed as the time
when the respondent should file
his answer to the charges. This
was done to enable the house to
file its replication without re-as-
sembling after adjournment.

JUDGE HILL DEAD.
One Of Our Useful and Upright Men
Dies Very Suddenly at Lake Weir
Where He Had Gone for Rest.

Where He Had Gone for Rest.
The sad news reached this city
about l O'Clock today that Judge
Jas. II. Hill had died very sud-
denly at the home of his fatE-
ther-in-law, John L. Carney, on
Lake Weir, where he went last
Saturday with his family for a
few days rest and recuperation.
He had not been feeling well
for some days and was confined
to his bed several days last week
but felt much improved on Satur-
day. No one imagined that his
condition was in any way serious
and the news Of his death came
like a shock.
No man in this community
stood higher in social circles
than Judge Hill At the general
election last fall he was reelected
county judge by the largest ma
jority given any man on the tick
ct and his sudden and untimely
death will be deeply mourned
throughout the county. He was
80 years of age, in the very
prime of life and vigor of man.
hood and his sterling worth as a
friend of the people gave promise
of a bright and useful career.
Honest, upright and fearless in
the discharge of his official du-
ties, his death will be a great loss
to the community.
The direct cause of his death is
thought to be acute kidney trou
BILE and bilious fever. He was a
member of the Masonic and K.
of P. lodges of this city, under
whose direction the funeral will
be held tomorrow.
The grief stricken wife and be-
reaved friends have the sympathy
Of the community in their hour
of great sorrow.

Health and strength carry us
through dangers and make us
safe i'm the presence of peril. A
perfectly strong man with rich,
pure blood, has nothing to fear
from germs. He may breathe in
the bacilli of consumption with
impunity. If there is a weak
spot where the germs may find
an entrance to the tissues, then
the trouble begins. Disease
germs propagate with lightning
like rapidity. Once in the blood,
the only way to get rid of them
is to kill them. That is what DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry is for. 1t purifies the blood.
That means that it kills the germs
but that is only part of what it
does. 1t assists digestion by
stimulating the secretion of di-
gestive fluids, so promoting as
similation and nutrition; purifies
and enriches the blood and so
supplies the tissues with the food
they need. 1t builds up strong,
healthy flesh and puts the whole
body into a disease-rcsisting
state.
