The Lewiston franchise goes to Seth
A. Hargraves of Fall River and j. e.
Phelan. Lewiston is to have brand
new team and the gentlemen who will
handle this team are looked upon as hav.
ing something up their sleeves which
will prove an eye opener when the season
opens. AS for Bath and Rockland good
teams are always to be found in these
places and with the strong aggregations
of last season these hot beds of polo will
be Well represented.
Poor Portland, however. may be.de-
prived of seeing the game this winter
TIE lovers of the sport here will be very
much disappointed if the public build
ings committee does not allow City hall
to be used for the game and perhaps
some satisfactory arrangement may be
made in this matter before the season
opens in Maine.
Many of the best polo players In the
country who played in Maine last season
have signified their intention OF remain
ing in this sJats during the coming sea-
son to play the game. Maine is very
popular with polo players. They get
good money here and ara sure of 1t. They
always play to crowded houses and In
other words "cut more ice in Maine
and have a chance to see faster polo than
they could anywhere else. Maine is even
more popular than the National League
among polo players, and SO some Of the
best of them drift down this way.
All of the managers of the teams COM
posing the Maine league are now signing
players for the season and from this out
will complete their teams as quickly as
possible.

GOOD ADVICE TO AMERIC ANS.
On Their Behavior When In Foreign Parts
From ths Home Journal. J

(From the Home Journal.)
Americans who visit England and the
continent next year will find themselves
drawn more or less into conversation on
the war, which apparently has already
closed with gratifying results to the
United States aud their view of these
results will doubtless be sought With
bered that the issue of this war has dis
tinctly placed the United States in new
position, and that the word Imperial
has of late been frequently heard Wild
| reference to our policy. 1t may be amply
allowable for us to enjoy the sound OF the
sought by us. We are not on the foot
stool of apology; indeed. it would ne
queer IL we were, while our very enemies
of a few weeks back, such as Cervera and
the other returning Spanish prisoners, are
loudest in our praises. But we cage IN
this word of caution with refernce TO next
summer abroad, THAT Americans who
have their country's true interest and
honor at heart be not co2ened or pulled
| into using terms of unnecessary menace,
but that they approach the people OF the
old world-Spaniards as we'll as Others
with spirit Of open, unsuspecting, ana
generous good nature Which snail not
6uES6Sb F6IuOVoly eA0 0iAoeesA1SS ~ S@AS
who has lately done a big thing
We make this suggestion because There
are Americans who, some time OF other,
| will have to be taken In hand foi the
good of the whole country, and who, II
| they cou d, would have Us in perpetual
hot water. They cannot speak OF the TAG
| itself, under which so many brave men
and true have fought and died, without
expressing OF implying contempt for all
other flags and all other peoples Their
| style of illusions to other pationalities is
| that of an habitual sneer; and their tn-i
| ternational view Ia very decidedly sugges-
| tive of the lowest saloon or pr1ze-ring
courage. They cannot comprehend the
higher form Of love and reverence which
| some men bear their countryss fag-a
| thing, indeed to be lived UNDER and. II

and possibly they we're; but we have seen
| a good deal of the same staggering self
complacency of late, VIGOROUSLY among
men who never smelled powder and never
will. While VIC have no apologies to
make to tho world for what we have re-
/ Gently done, we feel asjf solneo analogy

WRECKED AND BURNED
ROOF OF AN ELEVATOR BLOWN OFF
BY AN EXPLOSION OF DUST.
Rema Under of the Structure and Over
by Fire-Loss, 100000.

BOSTON, April 1.-THE roof of the grain
elevator at Hoosac tunnel docks, Charles
town, was blown off by a. dust explosion
at O'Clock this morning, and the fire that
followed not only destroyed the remaining
portion of the immense structure, but con-
sumed nearly the entire contents, over 400,-
COO bushels of grain, mostly wheat. The
steamer Cambroman, which had just fin
ished loading at the dock, was towed out
without injury but some of the small ten
ements adjoining and building used as a
dstillery by Chaplin & Trull were damaged
more or less by the debris from the roof.
The loss is estimated by the fire underwrit-
ers at nearly 5000 900, well covered by insur-
ance.
The explosion not only shook up the entire
section of Charlestown, but was noticeably
felt in the city proper and many OF the
suburbs. Coming at such early hour,
the tremendous jar aroused half the city.
Three-quarters of the fire department, in
Guiding the two horseless engines and fire.
boats, were soon massed in the immediate
vicinity. When the first firemen arrived
they found some of the streets impossible,
for portions of the roof were In every dlrec-
tion. Great timbers had been blown a hun
dred feet in the air by the force of the ex-
neighboring property were crushed and
pierced by the great beams The fire burned
fiercely for nearly four hours, and when it
was extinguished there was only shell of
the structure left, while bursting from
every side were tons and tons of wheat and
oats. Much of the grain fell through the
pier to the dock, while practically the whole
of it was so thoroughly soaked with water
that the loss will be complete The grain
was valued at about 100000 The loss on the
structure is $4,000, and the damage to the
pier and adjoining property is about $4,000.
Chaplin & Trull. the distillers. were dam
aged almost entirely by water and flying
timbers, and their loss will be about $4,000.
OF the 100000 bushels of grain in the ele
vator, the elevator officials stated to-day
that over half of it was wheat awaiting
shipment to Europe, and owned by j. V.
Letter, of Chicago. The remainder consist
ed of oats, corn and other cereals, the prop
erty of various parties in the West.
