A Message.

To the men who fought with Decatur
To the men who with Lawrence died
To the men who fell in that blazing hell
Of Mobile by Farragut's side,
lake them our message, stern and plain,
Tell them the guns are cast loose, again,
Men of the Maine!
This to the men of the ships of oak
From the men of the ships Of steel,
To the hearts that broke mid the flame and
smoke
From the living hearts that feel
There is no mizzen, nor fore, nor main,
But all of the flags are aloft again,
Men of the Maine!
Not against foes of our own true blood
Nor kin across the sea,
But straight in the face of a stranger race
Who never, like you. We're free.
Ieil them It's thus that our guns we train
And the sights are lined, and the strings
atrain,
Men of the Maine
Take them these tidings, We who sleep
Meath the murky waves by the Cuban
town,
The blow in the night but began the fight
Which ends wL~n the Dago flag comes
down,
And our guns shall thunder their old re-
Tolling your knell from hereto Spain!
Men of the Maine!

Will not Help Spain.

Canadian Government will see that the
United States is not Embarrassed.
Especial dispatch to the Boston Herald
OTTAWA. Ont, April 20, 1898. The
report is secuted here that, in anticipa-
ton of war between the United States and
Spain, persons in Halifax are making pre-
parations here to sell coal and other sup
plies to Spanish warships outside the
three mile limit. A member of the Lau-
rier cabinet said in reference to the re-
port to-day:
The wishes of the British government
in this matter are clearly understood here,
and it is quite certain that the Dominion
of Canada will permit it's people to do
nothing that would embarrass the mother
country, or nullify the policy which she
had mapped out in the event of hostilities
between the United States and Spain.
Should war be declared the States will
have no cause for complaint, as to the
attitude of the people of Canada. Our
government will see to that"

Spain's Naval Strength.

In order that timid souls may not be
unduly perturbed by the stories that are
printed in the daily papers concerning the
very powerful ships of the Spanish navy,
it is we'll perhaps to say that the Spanish
navy is not more than one third as power
full as our own, and is probably not more
than one tenth as effective. The power
of navies cannot be Judged accurately by
comparing lists of ships and ornaments.
The condition of the ships and guns must
be reckoned with; and while the Ameri-
can ships are always in tirst-class order,
Spanish ships rarely are. There is the
Alfonso XII, for instance, counted
among the Spanish fleet of effective ves-
sells. As a matter of fact, her boilers are
in such condition that she cannot move.
The relative effectiveness of navies de-
ponds upon officers and crews-upon the
human equation-and in that respect the
American navy is as good as any in the
world, and the Spanish navy is one of the
weakest. Harper's Weekly.

Three Loving-cups.
BY CHARLOTTE A. e. GREENE

BY CHARLOTTE A. E. GREENE
Three loving cups attention drew,
The gifts of those now far away;
Varied colors, red, white and blue,
Presented on gala day.
Three loving symbols, side by side
In beauty on the mantel wall;
Each the gift of family pride,
They lighted up as handsome all.
Forget me not was on one face,
Spread round in letters all OF gold.
Remember me" often trace.
This on the red, in figures bold
The tumbler blue was gilded Ger;
No motto there was ever seen,
True colors of our flag it bore,
Sometimes it shaded into green.
Amid these scenes little girl
AS nimble as the zephyr wind.
With large blue eyes and locks of curl
In shyness did express her mind.
With childlike gaze she reasoned then,
Why the blue tumbler had no mark;
She scarce could understand emblem
Or realize this work of art
She did not know true blue to men
Was indicative of great worth
She thought it had been sighted then
And thus, she was deprived of mrth.
In early years, not then as now,
She gave toast ito grandpa BEN"
NO shade OF sorrow tinged her brow,
For all was gay and happy then.
But soon the vital spark died down,
This blue cup took her fancy most,
And looking DER its rim with frown
Said grandpa, you have lost your toast
She held it off with saddened gaze;
Twas really empty, nothing there;
The nectar gone, while she, amazed,
Was clinging still to grandpa's chair.
All happy child | know that while
These floating tales before thee keep
| do believe they Oft beguie
And save the tears that else would Creep
Each has retained its place within, ..
Her heart bears kindly on them all
L would we We're as free from sin
AS when they sat beside the wall.

Contracts with Towns.

Chief Justice Peters has rendered an i'm
portant decision in the matter of contracts
with towns. 1t is as to the exemption of
a wooden mill from taxation where the town
one year voted to exempt and the next
undertook to annul the vote. The Judge
says "the vote of 1887, when accepted by the
company became contract between the
company and the town, or the equivalent of
contract which could not afterward be
changed or amended without the consent of
both PARTIES The constitutional question
was waived. The essence of the finding
is that a contract once voted and entered
upon by both parties is of binding force.
Otherwise there would be no end of itiga-
ton. Bridgton News.
