More About That Clock.

The city clock in the tower Oh the
Eirst Raptist church that has been in
one form or another discussed at every
citv government meeting. this year,
has presented new phase. Now ii Is
not a new clock that they are talking
Of but the repair of the present one. IL
is said that this can be done. Mayor
Lane. with Alderman Sewall ana
clockmaker visited the place, lew
days ago. and looked over the mechan-
ism of the clock. The estimate OF the
cost of repairing is about 500. whlle
the cost of a new one is about S4oo IL
is said by the clockmaker that when
repaired. the clock will be good for an
other so years. 1t seems that there
must be new striking arrangement
as the frost has worked on the old one
and the heavy weight in falling broke
it.
The order in relation to a new clock
is now with the aldermen, having been
taken from the table by Councilmen
Messer and indefinitely postponed by
the councilmen, while the aldermen
again tabled it. This last tabling was
done to keep the matter where it is un-
til the matter of repairs is Thought
over. Therd seems to be an impression
that the clock should be repaired and
| then it will be in running order once
| more 1t at present keeps very gooC
time but never strikes.

RAIN ON ST. SWlTHlN'S DAY.

Much to the People.

If the good old sign connected with
St. Swithin's day can be relied upon there
will be rain for the next - days, perhap.
not in large quantities but there will be
some. Saturday was st. Swithn's day
and 1t rained. very lightly to be sure, bu,
ii nevertheless, rained.
The old adage goes
St. Swthin's Day, an there be rain,
For forty days it will remain:
St. Swithin : Day. an II be fair.
For forty days twill rain nae mair.
While Americans as a rule do not pro
fcss to believe in the influence of this
good old saint over the midsummer
wea ther, there are many. even in this en-
liEhtened age. who have a lingering af-
fecton for tradition and legendary lore.
In many Maine towns where the customs
of bygone times and English ancestors
are still cherished st. Swthin's day Is
regarded as a pledge of sunshine or of
rain for 40 days to come.
The tradition concerning rain which is
associated with st. Swithin's day makes
his name familiar. but comparatively few

are aware that it was he who established

the dog. He is lying in his most nat
ural position and looks almost ready to
spring up. Nose was a particularly
intelligent dog and had an almost hu-
man expression. This expression is
marvellously well copied.
The picture is in heavy oak frame,

STATE HOUSE..
Waterville and Portland Have GaineC
Many Scholars.
A Table Of The School Fund Of kennebec
County-0ther Happenings.

1t is found by reference to the
tables relating to the State school fund
and mill tax that the city of Watervills,
has, according to it's size, made the
greatest gain in the number of scholars
in the past year. This city had in 1899,
2775 scholars drawing the school fund
and this year it is found that they will
draw their 2.46 1-3 upon 3,14O children.
Naturally the most progressive and
largest city in the State, Portland,
made the greatest gain. In 1898 there
were 1l.623 scholars, while for 1899 there
are 1S.92S reported.
The city of Augusta too has made a
gain but not large one. 1t has gained
so scholars in the year Auburn with
4.369 scholars has made a gain of 65
Lewiston increased it's number by
about 300. Brunswick with 2O52 has
gained 172. Bangor with 6O59 has lost
81. Bath with 2134 has gained 159
with 1917 has lost 296.
1t is found that Kennebec county.la
year. had 15,107 scholars and drew az
the school fund s3S.659.16 This year.
there are 1880 scholars and the amount
of the school fund is $39, 23941.
The city of Augusta, receiving as it
does Sl,1S6.30 from the State of Maine
for the education of it's scholars. re-
ceives one-third as much as it pays
back into the State as the State tax.
State tax amounts to s22,-
2G5OS
The following table will give the
number of scholars and what each
town receives as its school fund in the
county of Kennebec for the year 1899.
In some cases this school fund more
than wipes out the State tax:
