A CURIOUS MAINE STORY.
French-&anadian's Predictions Came True
After II is Death.


French-S canadians Predictions Came True
After His Death.
Every French Canadian resident Of
Maine believes that a miracle has
been performed over the grave of Paul
Beaupre, who died in 1894 and was
buried in the woods above Grindstone
Falls. Beaupre, or Bo Peep, as he
was called by his acquaintance, was
a fortune teller and peddler of snake
skin charms, who travelled from CAMP
to camp in winter, selling his amulets
and preying upon the credulity Of his
fellow countrymen by pretending to
reveal future events.
Before his death he expressed
wish to have his body taken to Mon
treal for burial, pronouncing fearful
curse upon those who neglected to
obey his last request. Among othe'
catastrophes which were to follow a
denial of his wish were the sudden
death of the camp foreman, the loss of
the years cut of logs, and the burning
of the camp. He also said that if he
were buried in the woods living
cross would grow up from the grave.
which should serve as perpetual
warning to all unbelievers.
When Beupre died his body was
sewed up in new blankets and carried
to a rocky point above Grindstone.

THE SENATE Is TO BLAME.
Tried to Throw Odium ON the En-
tire LEGISLATURE.
Whatcofn Reveille.

Nndtcon htSStiic.
The fusion state senate seems to be I'M
bued with the idea that all the acts Of the
sixth legislature VIII be charged up TO the
Republican party because the lower house
is strongly Republican. 1t has. by Its own
dilatory acts attempted TO throw odium
upon the whole legislature The expenses
of the upper body have been made as ex-
travagant as possible. Committee clerks
have received larger salaries and had less
work to do than house clerks Such efforts
to make poor record for the legislature
are not likely TO succeed. but IL they do
they viii be charged directly to the fusion
party.
Because there was \ Republican land
slide last November the people OF Washing
ron are not foolish enough to believe that
that party has absolute control OF legss-
lation this year. As neither party has that
control the good and the bad acts OF the
legislature will be sified and charged to
the party responsible for each. Reform.
as exemplified by the fusionists. seems to
be a great and good thing. Their idea is
TO make good party record. for the sole
purpose of getting back into office again,
but the means may be sacrificed to accom-
plish the end. They wonid not hesitate TO
sacrifice the interest of the state in order
10 sssten an apparently bad record on their
opponents.

TRADE LEAVING TnE ATLASTbS.
The great changes which trade under
goes with the movement Of population
/. westward are in no way better Illus
trafed than ia the relative tonnage OF
ships entered and cleared In the ports Of
New York and OF Puget sound within
the past two decades.
Where the total tonnage entered and
cleared from New York harbcr In 1855
was Less than 200. neo In advance Of that
Of 1850, the tonnage entered at Puget
sound during the same interval nearly
doubled. while the tonnage cleared null
tipfied nearly eight times
The entrances for New York in 1880
amounted to 1911 .2se tons; the entrances
for Puget sound In the same year
amounted to only one-fenth as much. or
III. Sos tons The c!earances from New
York in 1859 were |. 42s. so2. the ciearinzs
from Puget sound were i4s,067. or less
than one-fiftseth Of the New York total
Between 1850 and 1885 the New York
entrances fell away steadily for six
years. Increased again in 1856, fell again
until 1880. and at the close OF the fiscal
year OF 1898 were only 7.771.4i2 tons
Puget sound entrances. on the other
hand. Increased almost without inter-
ruption. reaching a total last year Of
I.04s.s4s. advancing thus from one-tenth
to one-seventh Of the New York figures
New York c!earances varied i'm much
the same manner as the entrances and
in 1895 were only 7.57s.sse tons: whereas
Puget sound clearances increased from
the 1867 tons to i.ls2,3l9. assuming
much the same relative position as the
entrances.
Ii appears probable that had II not
been for the exceptional activity Of
American commerce last year the ship
ping in the port Of New York would
have shown still further falling of
from the decreased totals succeeding
1852
Not great deal Of Analysis OF these
shipping figures can be required TO
show the recedtns Importance Of the At
lantic and the advancing Importance Of
the Pacific ports as points Of trade aud
commerce. Far-sighted men are recog-
nixing these changes and preparing their
business interests to meet them.
