services of the late Senator Justin S.

Unless Gen. Otis is mistaken, his
one weeks campaign against the
FiHpinos, which was succession of
victories from start to finish, has Civ
en- Aguinaldo's army all the fighting
they want-has in fact, scattered and
destroyed that army. and given the
Filipinos ar object lesson on the
power of the United Statss. By the
way, speaking of Gen. Otis, it is we'll
to remember that the military gov
ernor of the Philippines and COM
mander of the American army is Mai.
Gen. E. S. Otis, while the commander
of the brigade which won such a
brilliant victory at the capture of
Caloocan, is Brigadier General Har-
rison S. Otis, lately wellknown
California editor. There has been a
tendency to mix up these two officers
of the same name.

IRRIGATION ON A GREAT
SCALE.

England is preparing to spend $500,
600 year for thirty years for great
lake for irrigating purposes to be
made by damming the Nile. Of the
results of this dam building, Mr.. F. G.
Penfeld speaks thus in the February
Century:
The Egypt of the map shows more
than 400, 0G0 square miles, an expanse
nearly seven times as great as New
England; but the practical Egypt
that which produces crops and sustains
life-is barely as large as the States
of Vermont and Rhode Island taken
together. This is the ribbon like strip
of alluvial land bordering the Nile, a
few miles wide on each side. and
measuring not more than 10000
square miles. The extension planned
and to be completed in the next six or
eight years, wholly by irrigation, is no
| less magnificent in conception than
the rescuing from the Libyan and
Arabian deserts of $500 square miles
or twice the area of Rhode Island
This will be exploitation in it's truest
sense, and it's accomplishment will be
a verifcation of the ancient saying
that egypt is the Nile and the Nile is
Egypt"
AS an object lesson this Egyptian
enterprise should have no more inter
ested observers than in America, es-
pecially in Colorado, Nevada, Cali
| fornia, and other states of the West,
where the irrigation expert is sue
ceeding the railway builder as a de-

The affairs of the Barnet Bottling Works
are in such shape that considerable itiga
tion may result. The company had poor
season last summer on account of a close
money market, making collections I'M
usually hard. They also bought plant at
Lynn, run by Bangs, formerly of this
place, which, like the parent plant, had
hard season. The company owes about
10000 on notes in different places. These
notes are all signed by the company and
endorsed by the seven or eight directors
individually, most of whom are reliable
and honorable men, and, as is supposed
abundantiy able to take care of their obi
cations. The value of assets of the COM
pany has not been ascertained, but they
consist of the plant at Barnet, its equip
ment, the equipment of the Lynn plant,
and between $4,000 and $1,000 of bills receiv-
able which are of questionable value. The
company has an issued capital of $4,000
which is divided into 1000 shares of S25
each. AS only $40 per share has been paid
in, the stockholders are liable for an as
| sessment of S15 per share. We are in
| formed that some of the stock was pur-
chased by parties who are at this time I'M
| have transferred their stock to irresponsi-
| bic parties to avoid paying. The bottling
! works was first started and carried on in a
small way by E. E. McGaffey. He did so
well that it soon grew into its present pro-
portions. The directors of the company
are: w. M. Silsby, Newbury; DR.. R. T..
Johnson, West Concord; Crawford Ran
ney, w. w. Sprague, E. w. Blossom, of
