To Certain Subscribers.

Six months ago we sent n special no.
tice to certain subscribers who were
owing us for the REPORTER for years or
more, advising them that If the amount
due us was not paid within a reasonable
time we would take active measures TO
collect II.
Some of these subscribers responded
to this call, but much the larger number
did not, and, in order to keep our word
good, and in order to get money due US,
we shall, as soon after August 25th as
practicable. either draw on those who
are then delinquent, through bank or
express, or leave the accounts with an
attorney for collection, unless we have
good and sufficient reason for doing
otherwise.
This is our last call in the REPORTER
on this particular list of subscribers, and
we hope it will be needed. so that ex.
pense and difficulty may be avoided.
All subscribers can settle much better
with us than with third party and we
hope they will do it.
This notice is not intended to apply
to subscribers who are but year or two
in arrears, although we would be very
glad to have such remit as early AS may
be practicable for them
Remit by check, by express, or
through the mail by registered letter or
postal order, at our RISK and our En-
PENsE.

The State SURVEY.

The region between Portland and
Bridgton has been surveyed by the gov
eminent and typographical maps have
been made of it. The same work has
been done for portions of the Kennebec
River region. These maps are obtain
able of the geological survey at Wash
ington at slight expense. The Maine
Typographical survey will complete the
State. Work has begun near Bucks
port. That section had been trangu-
lated before by the United States gov
eminent and it was thought advisable
to begin where they left off and where
the triangulations had already been
made. They will complete this part of
the State and will then triauguate
another section near there, this Year.
The work of the next year will be the
surveying of the Typographical cOndi-
ton of that triangnlaton and the trian-
gnlating of another section. There
they will of necessity have to stop
until the next legislature provides fur
Their means for its continuance and com
pletion. The work is authorized by
Congress for states which bear half Of
the burden of the cost. The Washing
ton people send the men to do the labor.
ht tpuutl9 hclttltN LOT tile survey Is
measured with the nicely of science,
every road, stream, public building,
elevation, depression, forest fields,
pastures, barren and pond being indi-
Gated perfectly The country is worked
over slowly by Jewellers who measure
as they go and job and march along
over all sorts of country until they have
made the round of sort of triangular
circuit and have mapped out Is miles
square of ground. Then they 90 to
headquarters and the finished map is
made up by the topographer. Three
elevations are marked with one set of
lines, one to every 20 feet, so accurately
that at glance at the map the most
inexperienced observer can see exactly
how high every knoll on the face of the
plot is. The depressioDs are marked
with different lines. The roads are
shown and the streams, and there are
exhaustive notes on the condition of
the country. Of course such maps are
of considerable value for other than
military purposes. 1t is of advantage
to lumbermen, farmers and manufactur-
ers to be able at a glance to learn about
the natural conformations of given
territory Portland Press.

Fatalities in the Philippines.

a rep esentatiVe of the Manila Free
dom, who claims to have obtained the
record of the fatalities in the American
army in the Philippines to June J from
the surgeon generals office, gives the
total number of fatalities is 73G- %
officers, $50 prvates and II civilians at
tached to the army.
A remarkable feature of the record Is
found in the statement that the number
of officers killed 10 battle is out of all
proportion to the number of prvates
killed. On the other hand fewer officers
died from disease proportionately than
privates. Out of the % officers dead,
sixteen were killed in action, two were
drowned and five died of disease.
OF the 500 privates, 294 died of wounds
received in action, nine were killed acct
dentally, % were drowned and seven
committed suicide. One hundred and
six died of typhoid fever, 50 of small
pox, AZ of dysentery, % of pneumonia,
10 of malaria fever and IA of meningitis.
The remainder died from various dis
eases.
OF the fourteen deaths among civilians
seven were from small pox and three
from gunshot wounds received in action.

Literary Notes.

Mr.. Bagot's discussion of the question
will England Become Calholic?'
which The Living Age of July % trans
lates from the Italian review, the Nuova
Antologia, is noteworthy for the en-
phasis with which it answers in the
negative the question which it puts,
and the facts which it presents in sup
port of that view. Mr.. Bagot is an
English Catholic, but he wrote this ar
tiele in Italian, and it is here done back
into England of unusual force and lucid
ity.
Harper's Bazaar for the current week
gives some excellent ideas on the pres
ervatiOn of cut flowers. Merely put
ting the stems into water is apparently
not sufficient, and with little more
care even the most perishable blossoms
may be preserved. IAN leaves should
be removed from the part of the flDwer
stem that is to lie underneath the wat
err says the Bazaar, "otherwise these
sodden leaves decay and make the water
offensive. Every day the flowers must
be carefully lifted from the water, and
the eighth of an inch cut with sharp
scissors from the end of the stem.
The vase must then be emptied, washed
out, and reiilled with fresh water"
The Century for August is midsum-
mer aud travel number. Jacob Ris
writes of Feast DAYS in Italy" John
Burroughs gives fascinating glimpse
of the wild life about the slahsded
cabin near the Hudson In The River

the Yaugtsze kiang, and especially of
the city of Hankow, when Russian and
Siberian merchants have supplemented
the English. Prof. Wheeler gives n
graphic account Of Alexander in
India" and of the decisive victory that
marked the conqueror's crossing of the
river Hydashes. "ln the Whirl of a

Cleveland Able.
