official returns of the State election, re-
turned to college, Monday morning.
Secretary Young of the State board of
health, said, Monday, that while he does
not expect his latest report will be what
might be- termed a popular report among
the people, as the one of 1891, 1t required
a vast amount of time, and the medical
profession, as we'll as those interested in
the subject of disinfection, will be inter-
ested in it. The report of 1891 has proved
to be the most popular report OF the
board 1t was that treated of hygiene
and such matters, and the demand Tor
the book was very great. In many cases
it is used as a text book in many instf-
buttons The demand for the book, even
though it was a report of seven years
ago. continues to be so great, today, that
it is impossible to mail the number Of
them that are often asked for.
An immense stack of blanks was re-
ceived at the educational department.
Saturday, from the National Maine Mon
ument committee which has developed the
plans and is now raising the funds for
the monument that is to be erected to the
memory of the battleship Maine and the
263 brave fellows who went down in her
The subcommittee on schools which Is
to take the money that will be given by
the school children Of America, consists
of General Nelson A. Miles, Rear Ad-
miral Thomas o. Selfridge, Jr., General
Frederick D. Grant and Chauncey Depew.
This committee has in mind vault UNI
der the monument, in which will be the
names of all the American school chill
dren of the United States. To carry out
their idea it has set apart the LIST day
of November, as the one upon which all
the schools of America who are to assist
in the monument fund, will take their
collections and obtain the signatures of
the children. 1t is not necessary that
the children should each and all give
money to the project, but their names
should be signed. What is wanted is the
name of each. AS these names will be
preserved by states and sections, they
request that the child do his best in
writing No child is allowed to give more
than 10 cents. They advise that on that
day an entertainment of a patriotic char
acter be given, to keep the young people
patriotic.
1t is not likely that very large sum
of money will be raised in Maine, from
the present outlook, and according to the
way the calls for the blanks and instruc-
tionsRre being asked for. A circular was
issued by Superintendent Stetson to help
along the matter and it was given as
wide publicity as possible in the news
papers, but the calls are not coming in
fast. Less than IS towns have thus far
sent for the blanks, though they have
still much time.

The expected encampment Of the Dis

that the troops viii 90 in camp for sew
eral days.
This delay Is occasioned principally by
the desire Of certain National Guard
brigade officers 10 influence the War De-

reers from the District, instead OF its reg
ular quota Of one battalion. The ques-
1ion Of increasing the quota is being con-
