The Jersey Cow.

1t was not without reason that the
creeks called beautiful woman 'scow-
eyed;' but though many famous Jersey
COW has borne Greek name, Hellas new
er saw cows comparing in beauty with
the modern Jersey-so fine and trim in
shape and SO dainty in color and shading,
or with eyes so large and liquid. For
many years it was disputed whether the
breed was not cross between the COW
and deer. The Jersey much surpasses
her ancient prognitors in the richness and
abundance of her milk and cream as in
beauty. At the Worlds Fair at Chicago,
in 1898, the Jersey, putting aside all ques-
ton of beauty, challenged all other breeds
for quantity and quality of the butter,
and was triumphant winner over all
competitors.
For some years there has been a reac-
ton from the extravagant prices which pre-
vailed in the eighties for Jerseys, says
Harper's Bazaar. During the height of
that craze, it is said that 500, 900 was paid
for the bull Prince of Pogis, and that
famous COWS brought from So, 600 to S1O,-
600.
Pedro, sire of the great bull Pedro Roy
al Marjoram, won the first prize at the
Worlds Fair in 1893, and originally cost
his owner $4,000. Pedro's dam was
Eurotas, by many considered the greatest
of Jersey COWS. She produced IT'S pounds
and ounce of butter in one year. Pedro
Royal Mari ram was himself winner al
the Worlds Fair, but his chief distinction
has been in the extraordinary uniformity
and extraordinary merit of his daughters.

The Oldest Democrat.

James w. Bradbury CT Augusta, Me, g,
whom we have before occasionally re-
ferred to, passed his 9th birthday last
week. He is still in good health and in the
enjoyment of a placid old age. He takes
life as a philosopher and does not allow
political or any other affairs to disturb his
enjoyment of it. There may be older
Democrats in the country, but it is safe
to give Mr.. Bradbury the distinction CON
ferred on him in the heading of this article
until they appear. He was born during
the administration of the first Democratic
President, and he has lived to vote for the
last one likely to be elected in this century.
Mr., Bradbury opinion of the present con
dition of his party might be interesting,
but our impression is that he has ceased
to entertain very great anxiety on the sub
ject. When we last met him his mind was
very much mellowed toward men of all
parties. Boston Herald.

Merriam of the census estimates that the

the falling off of immigration in recent

NEWS OF The WEEK.

MAINE MATTERS. Bowdoin college is
the victim of very exasperating and van
DIAL like burglary. In the Walker Art
Building there has been on exhibition a
very valuable collection of coins belonging
to the estate of Dr. Lincoln. There was
very fine specimen of the gold quarter
of a dollar; silver dollars and half dollars
dated as far back as 1885; silver quarters
dating back to 1905; and dimes as old as
1907; and two Victoria Jubilee five pound
gold pieces. Some time last week burgla
entered the building through the cellar,
picked seven locks and entered the room
where the coins were kept and scooped
up hastily considerable portion of them,
those above mentioned being among those
taken. Later advices say that the coins
have been recovered. AT the annual meet
ing of the Maine historical society in Bruins
wick, June 2lst, the following officers were
elected President, ]. p. Baxter: vice pres
ident, Rufus X. Sewall; secretary and
librarian. II. w. Bryant; corresponding
secretary, Joseph Williamson; treasurer,

at the class day exercises at Bowdoin June
10th. Judge Peters is looking remarkably
well, while Mr. Bradbury, despite his 81
years of life, trod the old campus with
step as springy and elastic as many men
half bis age might do. The Judge, al
though not graduate of Bowdoin, takes
keen interest in the college and rarely
