II TO O.
Cony High Wins First Game Of
the Season.
Her Opponents Were the Heavy Lewiston High
School Representatives.

Cony High has started the season well.
a team that was much the heavier. The
Lewiston boys understood the game quite
well and fought hard for the victory, but
were outplayed at every point. This has
struck pride into the hearts of the foot
ball enthusiasts of Augusta, and bright
season is before the boys. If they will but
acquit themselves in the same manner of
Saturday.
Cony won the toss and chose the west
goal. Griffith kicked off to Lewiston's
5-yard line. By a series of line plays,
Lewiston made few short gains, when
suddenly one of Lewistons backs made
a tumble. Gross caught the ball, and aid
ed by the fine interference of Pratt, made
a run of % yards around Lewiston's right
end for a touchdown.
Lewiston kicked off. Cony lost the ball
on tumble, but Lewiston was unable to
gain. On the third down Clark of Cony
broke through Lewiston's line secured
the ball and made touchdown after run
ming half the length of the field. Just
before the close of the first half Cony
came within six inches of scoring.
Neither side was able to score during
the second half, although Cony kept the
ball in Lewistons territory nearly all the
time. At one time Lewiston's goal was
in such danger that they were obliged to
punt. The second half closed with the
ball on Lewistons 5-yard line.
The whole Cony team put up fine
game. Cony's center was very strong,
the heavy Lewiston backs being unable
to gain through it. The Lewiston team
was not able to make it's distance at any
time, but Cony's backs broke through for
repeated gains. Russell and Porquette
seldom failed to make their distance.
Griffiths rceuoonslaughts tore great
gaps in the Lewiston line. He bucked
their line for long gains, once making Is
yards. Gross handled the Cony team in
fine shape, showing good judgment in his
direction of the plays.
For Lewiston, Hayes at fullback played
a star game, nearly all the heavy work
falling on him. Lowe played well, saving
the Lewistons from many fumbles. Ray
mond. Winn and Goss played fine game
behind the line.

The n-commissioned officers of the
Maine Signal Corps were looking for
their old chevrons, Saturday, to place
upon their uniforms. They have not
had any chevrons since they turned in
those they wore while here. When
they left Augusta no commissioned
officers had been formally appointed
since they had entered the service of
the United States. At Washington they
had no time to draw the chevrons and
at Tampa they We're hurried into the
Cuban campaign, so they went through
it all without anything to distinguish a
sergeant or corporal from private.
If they had not been a crack corps
they would have had time while at
Washington, but the officers saw of
what they We're made, while they were
there and hustled them right along.
The regulars at Cuba had no climb
ing irons, but General Richards had
provided the Maine Corps with them
Another way that the Maine Corps
was of value was owing to the men
who are experts at telephone construc-
ton. The electrical storms had burned
out about every telephone the regular
signal men had in use, and they did
not know what had to be done to
remedy them. The Maine men soon
had all in good running order.

COLUMBIA SOLD.

". W. Hulings Closess Deal With the Big
Five Syndicate.
Ward, May I2-The sale of the Colum-
bia mine to Hon. w. c. Daniels. N. c.
Merrill and other head officials of the
Adit-Dew Drop company of Ward was
made public today. The purchase price
was $4,000. w. w. Hulings, the owner,
stated that the deal had practically been
closed, and that the full amount of the
purchase price would be paid over in the
next few days. The Columbia is the old
est discovery of the lodes bearing the
same name. l, was located in 1861 and
has remarkable history. Its record OF
gold production is s325,o1o, yet it has
only been worked little. The original
location included piece of ground 1oc
feet in length by 50 feet in width, and ii
is owing to this small area that the prop,
erty has been worked so little. Mr.
Hulings, however. in the past few years
secured full claim on either side OF the
lode mine $50 feet wide by 1850 feet in
length. The shaft on the Columbia Is
400 feet deep and there are over 5000
feet of drifts in its six levels. The future
working of the property will be through
the big tunnel, which the Adit and Nj
Wot companies are running TO tap the

There is room here for other enter.
prises. A canning factory in this place
is desideratum. The outlay would be
small and the employment of labor large.

could in the summer months find en-
ployment in Boulder canning factory

the factory added employment and no

The death of the Americans at Carde-
mas, the first killed in this war, causes
sadness throughout the country. AT such
a terrible cost comes thelesson that even
the Spaniards must not be entirely disre-
garded. 1t can be easily understood
how the miserable craftsmanship hith-
erto displayed by the Spanish and their
utter inability TO handle themselves we'll
in crisis has led the men on some of
the small boats TO become too venture
some. If there is one thing to be re-
membered it is the fact that the Spanish
will resort to treachery any time in pref
erence to coming out into the open, and
if this fact is overlooked for moment it
may result in disaster. The effects of
this event, practically Spanish victory,
will result in more caution in the future.

The appearance of the new university
catalogue calls attention to the sound
and healthy condition of the institution.
Each succeeding year witnesses an ad-
vance, each year a gain in strength.
Comparison of the present standing of
the university with that of ten years ago
reveals marvellous change. The growth
is strongly marked in number of de-
partments, in faculty, students, buildings,
facilities, and in fact in every conceiv-
able point. AS compared with last year,
the attendance shows an increase of
twenty-five per cent in the liberal art,
thirty-one per cent in the engineering
and fifty per cent in the law departments.
The past year is also notable for the ac-
cession of representation by the Episco-
palian and Presbyterian churches; the
enlargement and perfection OF the elec-
tive system now coming into vogue in
the leading educational Institutions of
the country; the Strengthening of the
graduate department; the reorganization
of the medical school; and the compile.
ton of several new buildings. Notwith-
standing the addition of facilities, how
ever, the accession of students is showing
tendency 10 keep ahead and new build
