EXPERIMENT WITH COKE.
Afternoon Local Train from Portland Tries the
New Fuel.

Train No. 10. which is the afternoon
had an engine which was using coke
for fuel This is the first time il has
been tried on a long run, the Oakland
"Scoot" having been using it very sue
cessfully for some weeks. 1t was very
satisfactory and should still further
test prove its efficiency the coal will be
replaced by the lighter fuel.
Superintendent of Motive Power
Amos Pilsbury was in the cab with the
engineer and he was we'll pleased with
the new fuel. The train was three
minutes late out of Portland and 10
minutes late into Augusta. 1t was
bothered at one of the sidings and had
had an unusually heavy train. The
car a baggage car, a smoker and two
passenger coaches, Friday it had on
additional baggage car and three
coaches extra. The engine was of the
same dimensions as the one ordinarily
used so it is seen that the coke worked
well.
The fireman was very much pleased
with it, The fire is kept just easily and
in fact when it once commcr"rs te
burn the flame is much hottie. Ting
difference in weight is an important
feature to the man who has to shovel
it into the fire box and this one fea-
ture alone will make it popular with
the firemen. The smoke from the stack
as that of soft coal. There is but very
little smoke when starting and on the

A GOLF CLUB.
Plans Formulated 10 Organize One Among the
Augusta Enthusiasts.

Plans are we'll under way to form a
golf club in this city. There are n
number of people, all more or less skill
ed in the game. who are enthusiastic
over the prospect of a club here and
should the plans mature as there is no
reason for believing to the contrary. a
permanent organization will be made.
The links have been laid out on the
State grounds and are all ready with
the exception of the placing of the flags
which will be done in a day or two. 1t
is nine hole link and is properly laid
out. Should the plans for the organ

A LOCAL FOOT BALL TEAM.
The Men Who Will Go Into Practice Next
Week.

The foot ball talk and plans ,uu 10
known just what there will be to rep
resent the Cony High school, but there
is to be a local team that will try to
do up anything that runs AGAINST it on
the gridiron, this fall. There is alumni
material enough to make two good
elevens and with these there ought to
be an eleven formed that will be the
pride Of Augusta
In the list are several old college
players who have not outlived their
days of usefulness, like many college
players, and with them are others who
circles.
The material of which the team will
be made up is composed of McFadden
full back; Griffith. full back or end:
Bond. half back; Porquette. half back:
Mutty, end or guard: Trask. guard;
Parsons, quarter back or end: Miller,
tackle: Jackson, tackle or half back;
Bessey, center; Curtis. center; Nc
Graw. center.
If that is not an aggregation from
which to make up a team of winners,
then the local enthusiasts are much
mistaken. They will begin practice
sometime next week. working little
each day and preparing for the opening
games.
There ought to be some lively games,
this fall. between these men and the
teams in the neighboring cities. Halo
we'll has already a squad of men in
practice and they are gaining each day
on the Capital city men. but let it be
hoped that the Capitals have the ma
terial and science to overcome the lead
the sister city's team has attained.

THOSE AkGORA GOATS.
Major Houses Goat Farm Leads Textile World
To indulge in Sarcasm.

The last number of the Textile
World contains very sarcastic ex-
PLANTATION of the story regarding Major
Houses alleged goat farm which, a
few years ago, caused so much amuse-
ment throughout the State and wher-
Gated. The article in the Textile
World follows and has, ii is said,
caused much weeping in the mentioned
Bangor office: Wal.
We have had n number of inquiries
of late in relation to the raising Of
Angora goats in the State OF Maine,
in which, G. j. House of Augusta, ID
alleged to be more or less interested.
1t appears that all of this story about
raising AnSora goats in Maine origin
ated in the office of a newspaper in
Bangor, Maine. 1t seems that the edi-
tor of local paper supplements his
meagre salary by writing amusing
stories for the readers of the Saturday
edition Of the New York Sun. and his
motto apparently is TO keep as far
from the truth as possible. st.. q
He usually works in the name of
some well-known individual, in order
to give the story n semblance of truth,
and in a recent instance he has used
the name of q. j. House. chief clerk in
the bureau of industrial and labor
statistics. Augusta. Sometimes this
editor takes some incident that has
actually TRANSFERRED for the foundation
of 4 yarn. but the goat story was
manufactured entirely out Of whole
cloth, the keeping Of goats never hav-
ing entered the mind of Mr.. House,
and no allusion TO goats was ever
made by that gentlemen to this news
paper scribe, or anyone else.

A CURIOUS COLLECTION.
Bunch Of Australian Papers Mostly Contain
Advertising Matter.

John Coughlin has a unique window
display in the form OF a number of
Australian papers which were sent to
him by a travelling representative. Of
the Chamberlain Remedy Go. These
papers all contain advertisements Of
the above mentioned concern Besides
this American firm there are advertise
ments Of many others which appear in
the papers OF this section. Ayers Sarsa-
pariila, ST. Jocob's oil and many other
old remedies.
The papers are unique in that there
is no telegraph news and what read
ing matter there is is local. Some of
the front and back pages of the paper
are entirely given up TO advertisements
and the other pages are more than half
covered with ads. The penny papers
are much better appearing than the
higher priced ones. Another unique
where the papers circulate printed
across the top which usually end and
other surrounding towns"
The first thing which struck Mr..
Coughlins eye as he opened the bun
die was the word Augusta printed in
big black letters. 1t was the name of
steamer plying on the Tweed river.
Another ad which attracts a lot of at
tention is double page ad. of cattle

The Portland Argus says: "It is
understood that Adjutant General
Richards has objected to the war de-
partment crediting the appointments
of Captain GliddeR and Lieutenant
Degen to Names quota of officers in
the volunteer regiments. Cantain
Glidden was regular army officer. a
second lieutenant in one of the regular
regiments. and was made a captain Of
one of the volunteer regiments.
Lieutenant Degen of Augusta. was
n sergeant in Co. f, LIST Maine and
went South with them. Upon his re-
turn he was discharged but immed-
ately enlisted in the 7th u. S. Infantry
He was appointed first lieutenant from
the regular army.
The objection is on this ground that
they are both regular army officers.
and on this account should not be
credited to the number of volunteer
officers to be appointed from Names
quota.
IF the war department looks at the
matter in the same light that il is I'M
derstood AdJutant General Richards
and Governor Powers do, there will
probably be two more appointments
made from Maine officers. Ii is be
lieved these two would come from the
three that We're previously made on
the last call and not appointed, viz
Lieutenant Blackington, f. co. Au-
gusta; Captain Butler. Signal Corps,
and Lieutenant Philbrook, l. CO."

DIAMONDS ARE HIGHER.
Old Mines Being Repened to Supply the D.
mand-Other Gems Nigh.

An Augusta jeweler in talking to a
Journal reporter, the other day, said
that diamonds were much higher than
they have been for some time. Ac-
advanced 20 per cent within the past
few weeks, and there is a prospect Of
still higher advance. This is partly
due to the real scarcity OF the gems.
and partly to the large number held
for speculation.
A diamond drummer said to the
Journal man: "A large number of
abandoned mines have been opened
with the hope of securing a few gems.
The present high price makes it worth
while to go to the expense of reopen
ing a mine and securing a few stones.
probably you or I will never live to
see the day when diamonds cannot be
purchased for some price, but beyond
a question the day is coming when
they will be a rare article. They will
in the future be far more valuable
than they are now. and only the very
richest people will be able to purchase
them. 1t is a wonder where the stones
go to. for think of the large number
which have been mined in the past,
and still there are but few, compare
lively speaking, to be found on the
market.
The price of rubies and emeralds is
at present higher than diamonds, as
has a real ruby or emerald can secure
diamond"

How 10 Spend Sunday.

The last chance to visit Bar Harbor
at the regular reduced rates on the
regular trains will be, tomorrow.
There will be a number to take in this
trip if it is nice day. This is the
only trip on the Maine Central from
this city at reduced rates as far as
yet advertised. Many had hoped for
another excursion to Old Orchard, but
are disappointed in it. this week.
The regular Sunday rates to the Is
lands and Merrymeeting park on the
boat is in effect but will not be much
longer. There will be many take in
this trip, should it be pleasant, for
there is not many more delightful
trips like this.
The carriage drives about the city
and to the band concert at Togus will
probably be much frequented.
