There is no doubt. whatever, that the
loss of the Maine was due to lack of
discipline" ana cites the case Of 4
United States cruiser which was lately
at Venice, describing her crew as being
rather pirates than the sailors Of a
civilized nation"
Continuing FL Curreo remarks ::
"DrunkardS. inSuhordinateS. thieves
and fighters the sailors of the United
States never set foot ashore without
creating riots Nightly several Of them
slept in jail. or were taken on board
under arrest. until the municipality
was forced to formally complain to the
commander and request him not to al
levy his men to land, as otherwise they
would not lac ansWerable for the con-
sequences. HAD these men belonged to
thu Christina regiment the United
States would have replied by demand
ing an indemnity. or an apology Ut
both With the certainty Of obtaining ii.
But the protest not being Spanish no
attention was paid to it, the cruiser
leaving for Italy.

that one of their ships does not blow

WORTH REMEMBERING
Clip This Out: You Do Not Know What Mo.
ment 1t Will Be Found Invaluable

Seven miles out on the Canaan road
between SlloW hogan and pittsfield,
over 80 Years ago, a young couple set
lied on farm a little distance beyond
the present residence of Governor
Powers At that time our Governor
was not in existence. communication
by rail was thought impossible, OVER
half Of Maine was a wilderness, an
if anyone had predicted that the Pine
Tree State would he represented ir
Congress by some Of the greatest in
tellccts which our Republic has pro-
duced. that prediction would have been
looked upon as madness. To talk about
the early history of Maine with Mrs.
T.. Tilton, the survivor of the couple
referred to. is a pleasure and anyone
interested in the "reminiscences of the
pioneers cannot spend a more pleasant
hour. Among the interesting things
discussed by our representative a short
time ago was her experience With and
opinion of medicinal preparation
which has become a household neces-
sty in the cities and towns of our Re-
public 1t has become so here in Au-
guSta. The spreading Of such informa
zion by Mrs. Tilton brought this re-
suit about. Read what she says:
For a number Of years | had some
kind of kidney trouble. causing severe
attacks of headache. not constantly lat
recurring from time to time. When
did have an attack it was severe and
suffered greatly. When | sat or lay
down | could not get up again. | often

never effected a permanent cure. | was
in pretty bad shape for some time
suffering day and night, when I was
induced To try Doan's Kidney Pills
They gave me relief after taking a few
doses. When / finished the treatment
my trouble disappeared. | found them
an effective remedy. and | believe any
