BANGOR, Me. Aug, G.-Reports from all tho
northern and eastern counties Of Maine show
that deer and moose are rather more plentiful
than last year, while caribou seem to have dis

deer close to settlements AT this season. but
from all along the line of the railroad east and
north Of Bangor come reports of deer and cvcn
moose being encountered In the highways, on
the railroad track. and In some cases in the
streets OF villages. In Oldtown. which Is only
twelve miles from Bangor. a young woman
who was out photographing the scenery the
other day got three good pictures OF q big
moose which had swum Sunkhaze stream and

Mining and Religion.

A writer in the Boston Transcript
has discovered that the mining in
dustry has cultivated q disregard
for the Sabbath day in the mining
states. He notes the impiety that
stands out in bas-relief from the
western character like warts on the
back of a New England toad. In
Butte, for instance, says the West
ern Mining World, he found the
mines and smelters in operation on
Sunday when all the truly good
ought to have been in church.
If the Transcript man would use
his New England influence with God
TO have the water shut off from the
mines during Sunday, so that the
pumps could tie up for the day, and
arrange to have the smelter fires
preserved in the hollow of His hand
until Monday morning, Butte might
live up with Boston in practicing
piety. AS it is she cannot compete
with her eastern cousins in the mat
ter of using the Sabbath day for q
picnic. There is no rest for the
wicked, it is said, and in the mining
industry there is no time to loai
around and sing hymns. 1t is
business the year round.
But when the jewels are made up,
and the redeemed in halo of light
circle around the great white throne,
We believe there will be more miners
there With the marks of honesty
on their brows, and the signs of in.
dustry in their hands, than bottle.
