paper, the New York Tribune. Clearly
the worst fate that could befall Greater
New York was the triumph of Tammany,
an organization everywhere recognized as
corrupt and Inscriptions, an enemy alike
of good government and good morals
There seemed but one way to defeat Tam
many, and that was for all good citizens
to rally to the support of Low. No one
believed it possible to elect straight Re-
publican ticket, and when Gen. Tracy
was nominated it was generally recognize
ed that the success of Tammany was as

The death of Col. John NJ. Adams, editor
of the Portland Argus, takes from Maine
journalism a sturdy and prominent figure.
No man in all the State was better known
to his workers, and none was held in
higher regard and esteem. H. was man
ly man, a kindly man, and an able man,
and his friends and admirers were not con-
fined to the party he served so conscien-
tiously and SO disinterestedly. A charter
member of the Maine Press Association
he rarely failed to be present at its ses-
sions and its excursions, ever manifested
an active interest in its affairs, and open
ed the doors of his hospitable home in
Deering to its members on many never to
be forgotten occasions. Mrs. Adams and
the other members of the household shar-
ed the esteem in which the husband and
father was held, and the hearts of many go
out to them in tenderest sympathy in their
deep affiiction.

The municipal contest in New York has
been most exciting. The stakes were
large. The success of Tammany meant
the distribution of enormous patronage
and the ABSORPTION by the leaders of mil

and Republicans have alike been divided.

After meals you should have simply a
feeling of comfort anG satisfaction. You
should not feel any special indications that
digest ion is going on. If you do, you have
Indigestion, which means not digestion.
This may be the beginning of so many dan
gerous diseases that it is best to take it in
hand at once and treat it with Shaker Diges-
tive Cordial. For you know that indiges-
ton makes poison, which causes pain and
sickness. And that Shaker Digestive Cor
dial helps digestion and cures indigestion.
Shaker Digestive Cordial does this by pro-
viding the digestive materials in which the
sick stomach is wanting. 1t also tones up
and strengthens the digestive organs and
makes them perfectly healthy. This is the
rationale of its method of cure, as the doc
tors would say. Sold by druggists, price 10
cents to 81 90 per bottle.

Wellington Shorey of Waldo passed away
Wednesday morning, Oct. 9th, after an ill
ness of nine days. His health had been poor
for two or three years and he had been grad
ually failing In his last illness he was not
considered to be in any danger until Sunday
morning. From that time until the last few
hours he was a great sufferer. He was de-
lrious the last two days, not recognizing any
of his family but once in that time. All that
love and kindness could do for him was
done. Husband and father is now at rest.

In 1913 he bought the farm that he lived on
when he passed away, and had lived there
all the time except one year when he
rented his farm, moved to the Head of the
Tide, and run the saw-mill. At the end of
the year he returned to his farm. In
1919 he married Louisa Durham, daughter
of John and Drusilla Durham of Waldo.
Eight children were born to them-six sons
and two daughters-and all attained man-
hood and womanhood but one son, who
passed away III INFANCY thirty years ago.
Four of the sons lived in Montana several

funeral. They are Mrs. J. 81. McGray of
Knox, G. W. Shorey. who lives on the old
homestead, and Miss Carrie E., living with
her mother in the old home. His home was
ever open to all. A great worker, he was al
ways ready to assist those who were i'll or
needy. He was a charter member of Fred
erick Ritchie Grange and was buried under
its order. Mr.. Shorey was man highly es-
teemed by all who knew him and was very
decided in what he believed to be just and
right. In belief he was Spiritualist and an

ISLANDS QUICKLY MADE.
A Loud Report, an Eruption of Black Mud
and There They Are.

(From the San Francisco Chronicle.)
San Luis Obispo, May 19-About 7.3O
0 clock this evening residents of the coun-
try adjacent to Moro Bay were startled by
a report which began ike the low rum
BILE of thunder and ended with a some
what louder blast. About q week ago a
similar report was heard, and a mud gey
ser appeared in the small arm of Moro
Bay just opposite the town site of Ell
Moro. This geyser has formed a small
island, which for a week past has been
the wonder of the people OF the country,
and has been visited by great many.
Following the report this evening a
second geyser sprung into existence about
2oO yards distant from the first and a lit
tie further inland. This last geyser is
an exact counterpart of the one formed
last Friday night. 1t is only short dis
lance from the shore and people who
gathered this evening could plainly see
the small island of dark mud and sand
Which had been formed Like the erup-
ton of last Friday night the surface of
the second island bears evidence of hav-
ing a small-sized crater, from which large
ing.
The body of water in which these erup-
tions occurred is a small, narrow arm OF
Moro Bay, extending inland about mile.
1t branches OIL from the main portion OF
the bay at the head of Moro rock. The
arm is not over. a quarter of mile in
width at any point, and is almost uni
form in width from its mouth to the ex-
treme end. The eruptions occurred with
in q Short distance of tho ay+,. ar,d nf
the arm. The long stretch of land which
forms the bar dividing the arm from the
bay is only few hundred yards in width
and is supposed to be a long rib" ex
tending out from the granite formation of
Moro rock. The quality of the rock sug-
gests eruptions, and the best posted men
in this city are of the opinion that the
formation OF the two mud geysers in the
arm of the bay has its origin from the
sudden bursting of some submarine pas
sage, and that the throwing up of mud
and sand, which has formed the two is
lands, is due to the force and effect of
the escape of gases long confined.
= The islandsformed by the geyser tonight
does not extend as far above the surface
of the water as the one formed last Friday
night by several feet, but is much broader
and the report was considerably louder.
WI. McGinnis, who resides on the shore
OF the arm of the bay, is one of the Oldest
residents of the county. He states that
he and his family were at the supper table
this evening when they were startled by
a low rumbling noise, which seemed to be
directly underneath the house, but with
a deep-set volume which located it far
below the surface of the ground. Then
in less than a second after they heard the
report and rushed out of the house. and,
remembering the experience of last Fri
day, gazed out on the arm of the bay,
and in the twilight saw a second island
short distance from the first. Mr.. Nc
Ginnis fears to remain IN his house any
longer, and fishermen of the bay who
anchor their craft at night in the arm o
the bay are preparing to move to a small
cove further up the coast.

have conferred directly with an Ameri-
can representative, and am sure that
Americans have no desire to be under
obligations to England. Moreover. both
our countries are republican, fact which
alone calls for an interchange of diplo-
matte representation. As yet, of course.
the South African republic would not
care to undertake the responsibilities of a
ministry at Washington, but the world
has as yet only seen the beginnings of
Boer power in the Dark Continent.
The Postmaster General of the Trans
wall is typical Boer of the better class.
In him the rugged stolidity of the South
African burgher has been sharpened by
education and by contact with the keen
intellects of other nations. He is of
sturdy build, iron jawed, and bright
eyed, with affable manners which utterly
contradict the British statement that the
Boer is boorish and uncouth. In addition
to his native patois, and the mother
tongue of Holland, DR.. Van Alphen
speaks English excellently. His broad
shoulders are still straight. and his hair
Is but slightly grizzled, despite the 55
years to which he owns. To his efforts
the Transvaal owes its present postal
service; but it must be admitted that
Dr. Van Alphen is prouder of his military
record against the English and the Zulus
than of his political services to his native
land. His opinions are sternly opposed
to British Entertainments in South Africa,
and he declares, in an ominously quiet
manner, that England can never possess
the Iransvaal until every adult Boer is
dead Or in chains.-New York SIM.
