SALMON FOR BREEDING.
State Commissioner Written Has Con-
ference With HIr. Atkins.

State Commissioner of Sea Shore Fish
cries o. B. Written of this city had a
conference with Mr.. Charles G. Atkins,
the assistant United States commissioner
of fish and fisheries, the superintendent
of the government hatchery at Craig
brook, Orland, Tuesday, concerning the
work to be done this year in the taking of
salmon for breeding purposes. This
branch of fish culture, so far as the states
part of the work is concerned, is now in
Commissioner Whitten's hands and the
state and general government carry On
the work jointly under the direction OF
the two commissioners.
In 1896 the work of taking salmon on
the Penobscot was not commenced until
August as the traps at the dams We're not
completed in season for the work to begin
before that time. This year, as more is to
be done than last year, the commissioners
intend to commence taking the fish early
in July. At the Craig brook hatchery
more is being done this year than ever be-
fore. This season the government has
Matched 1850, 900 fry, nearly all of which
are salmon, and all but $50, 900 have al
ready been distributed to the various
lakes, ponds and streams entitled to
them

Bowdoin College.

The annual report of the president of
Hyde, announces favorable and probably
final decisions in the Garcelon case, $780,,
900, and the Fayerweather case, 100000
and requests during the year amounting
to ST, 800, as follows: Crosby S. Noyes,
$1,000; W. w. Thomas. $500; Walker es-
tate $1,000; Henry T. Cheever, $500;
George F. Godfrey, $500; Mrs. Eliza II.
JACQUES, $500; and residuary interest
in tn estate of Charles E. Allen, Esq.
The report calls for such reorganiza-
ton of the Medical School as will make
all funds receivable by the college treas
urer payable under salaries and ap-
preparations voted by the trustees and
oyerseers; and bring all appointments
and changes of policy more directly under
their supervision.
The experiment in individal instruc
ton, by which instructors meet students
singly or in groups of three or four, thus
removing individual difficulties and
stimulating individual appreciation. and
ambition, is pronounced a decided success
and its extension to other departments
of study is strongly urged.
A system of honor courses for the best
students, in which they shall do extra
work under the more Immediate personal
supervision of the instructor, and receive
recognition therefor in honors at gradua-
ton, is recommended.

The settlement of the sugar schedule of
the tariff bill in the Senate on Tuesday is
regarded as favorable to early action on
the whole bill. 1t is thought that this,
with the Pettigrew antitrust amend
ment, were the two things over which
there would be the most trouble. There
remain the tobacco schedule, the linens
and the wool duties, which may cause
delay. There is no real fight over the de-
tails of the wool schedule, but on the
general principle of free wool VS.. wool
with a tariff there may be considerable
formal oratory. The question of the duty
on hides is expected to be settled in the
caucus of the Republican Senators. The
discussion on the antitrust amendment
brought to the aid of Mr.. Allison and the
Republican leaders unexpected allies in
the forms of Senators Pettus and Nor
gan, Of Alabama. That Senator Morgan
should have opposed it is astonishing and
indicates that it must have been either ex j.
ceedingly sensible or unutterably foolish.
There is other evidence of a circumstan-
bial character to show that the amend
ment was not sensible.
Senator German, of Maryland, who is
conceded to be an excellent judge of the
course of business in the Senate, has been
maintaining all along that the tariff bill
would be passed in that body by the Goth
of June. But this does not seem at all

Fort Sumner Park.

The commissioners of public grounds
complain that Fort Sumner park is con-
stantly exposed to acts of vandalism from
boys who live in that vicinity. 1t costs
more to keep this park looking well than
all other parks in that section of the city.
A few days ago they removed large lot
of stones and debris from the roof of the
band stand and painted it. They warned
boys who were about at the time to stop
throwing articles on the band stand, but
no heed was paid to the request. At
present the roof is decorated with stones,
old brooms, old tin cans, &c An effort
is to be made to make the boys stop such
practices, which are discredit to the
persons guilty of the offence and to the
city as we'll.

Corner, South Portland, drilled but did
not blow open the safe, and got about five
dollars in money.
During Tuesday night five tramps
broke into the grand stand at R igby

discovered early Wednesday morning by

Eighth Anniversary of Cumberland Lodge
X. of p.

Eight years ago, June 10th, 1881, Cum
berland lodge, K. of P, was instituted in
the village of Knightville. Wednesday
evening was the eighth anniversary of the
event, which the lodge celebrated in a
manner befitting the occasion and the
prominent standing which the lodge has
attained in the order. Hon. E. C. Rey-
nolds, grand chancellor of Maine, opened
the entertainment with felicitious ad-
dress in which he gave statistical and
historical sketch of Cumberland lodge,
interspersing his remarks with numerous
personal experiences Mr.. Marshall
Williams who acted as master of cere-
monies, then called up the musical and
other talent, provided for the occasion,
and for an hour or more the crowded hall
resounded with peals of laughter or
rounds of applause, as the strikingly
novel numbers were executed Messrs.
Hatch and Skillin, in their banjo, guitar,
xylophone, organ pipes and sleigh bell
solos and duets, were alike skilled and
pleasing in their renderings. Prof. Nc
CAMEL whose bone solos convulsed the
audience, was even more entertaining in
his lightning sketches in which he carica-
tured well known public men, and pro-
duced specimens of all various nations.
Mrs. l.. K. Greenlaw in her pleasing
readings and Mr.. G. A. Clark who sang
several sentimental songs, were encored
after each piece
Cumberland lodge which started eight
years ago with dozen charter members
is now seventy eight strong, and is fast
increasing its membership. The celebra-
ton of its eighth anniversary will make
bright progress in its records, one it may
recur to with pride.
Several farmers down the Cape have
informed the writer that they apprehend
no material loss of crops as result of the
late rains. Early planted potatoes have
survived the floods remarkably well. No

compensate for whatever injury other
crops have sustained

Miss Hattie came out with kettle of
boiling water and turned it into large
pan. She had just moved away when
little Hannah made misstep and fell
backward into the water, scalding the
hips and legs to the knees in frightful
manner. Alt hough the shock sustained
was severe she will probably recover.
