An Advance in Wages.

WATERvILLE, April 3. The employees at
the Lockwood cotton mills went to their
work today unusually happy because they
began this morning working under practlcal-
ly the scale of wages that ruled before the
cut-down that came on Jan. II, 1898 This
raising of the wages of the Lockwood hands
is in the line with a general movement
throughout the mills of New Eng, land. The

tives and amounts to about - IL per cent.
LEWISTON, April 3. The ten per cent. ad-
vance in wages in the Lewiston and Auburn

advance affects about ,76S operatives, 3,322
males and ,146 females.
BRUNSWICK, April 3 Seven hundred oper-
atives in the Cabot cotton mill received an
increase in wages of from six to ten per cent.

tion of the wages paid before the reduction
of January, 1898
AUGUSTA, April 3. The promised increase
in wages at the Edwards cotton mills went
into effect this morning. This will affect

Easter in the Store Windows.

Last week some of the store windows had
special decorations appropriate to Easter.
A window in the drug store of R. FL. Moody
carried off the palm for originality, and was
unique in design and execution. 1t was the
work of Walter F. Hall. The window was
draped in white, and at the top in the back
was a mortar and pestle of gilded blown
eggs suspended by string of the same. In
the centre below was a large frame of eggs
with the word Easter" made of green
colored eggs and suspended by cord of
eggs The gilt figures 1897 hung below
The bottom of the window was trimmed
with fancy colored eggs and crepe paper
An imitation nest contained three golden
eggs and bore this label: "Tom Haugh's
golden nuggets from Klondike." Another
nest had collection of some $50 eggs and
among them ostrich and cassowary eggs
The latter was brought from New Guinea
and a dealer has offered $50 for it, Beside
the bronzed eggs there are 25 different
colors and they presented a very pretty sight.
In the upper part of the window, pasted
upon the & lass were the words "R. Fl. Moody,

paper Easter lily in the window was made
by Mrs. M. E. Haugh and is a fine piece of
work. This display naturally attracted
much attention
One window of R. III. Coombs & Sons
furniture store was very prettly arranged
in white, showing a white chamber set.
case OF rare eggs, including one alligators
egg, and other articles, the whole neatly
trimmed with crepe paper of pansy design;
and an Easter lily. 1t was arranged by Mrs.
]. L. Sleeper.
H. j. Locke & Son probably had the most
valuable as we'll as one of the most artistic
window displays in the city. White and
green crepe paper was used as a hack ground
for fine display of gold and silver goods,
including the word easter formed of
ladies' gold watches and the figures "99"
in gentlemens gold watches. A handsome
and fragrant Easter lily occupied the centre
of the window. The decorator was Miss
Annie Dyer.
One of the windows of George W. Bur-
kett's big dry goods store in Odd Fellows
block contained a display of millinery which
proved specially attractive to the fair sex,
and the store was througed with customers.
1t was the first Easter opening of millinery
for this season.
The Misses Ellis had an opening of Easter
gloves land their windows were as usual very
prettily arranged.

success IN life depends more upon natural
ability than upon acquired ability. Affirm

debate ensued. After hard fought contest

A Creamery for Belfast.

Last Saturday DR.. G. II. Emerson of
Bucksport came to Belfast and completed
negotiations with the mort gagees of the Bel
fast Farms Creamery, buying the equipment
of the plant outright. The Belfast creamery
will be run as a branch of the Emerson
creamery at Bucksport, which latter plant
has been unable to supply the demand for
the Emerson cream and butter since the
establishment of the Boston agency and the
Introduction of the brand to the fine trade
generally. 1t is expected to begin operations
here in about two week, and certainly not
later than the first of May Some of our
Waldo county farmers who have been car
rying their cream to Bucksport will now
bring it to Belfast. The location and equip
ment are all that could be desired, and
those who bring cream to the new creamery
are assured that prompt payments will be
made as agreed upon. Due notice will be
given when the creamery is ready for bust.

A Strike in the Hoosier Mine.

The strike in the Hoosier mine OF the
Cripple Greek district exCltts more than the

the rich pay streak, as it has been left stand

work is completed, which vii! be ahout May

lnsuring Personal Property.

An insurance agent lately gave custom
er a little advice in relation to insurance on
personal property, which it would be well
for all policy holders to follow When
loss on personal property is reported the
company, through its agent or the adiuster
calls upon the policy holder to produce
list of the property des stroyed, together with
its value. This is often difficult, and some-
times losers are unah lie to remember i'm
their excitement Immediately following A
fire, many valuable articles which have
been destroyed. A case is cited of a list
made out by wellto-do family, in which
the mother and two daughters each lost
good sewing machine and did not think of
them until the special agent in looking over
their list asked if they id not have sew
ing machine in the house. Tie plan sug-
gested is to make such list in advance and
file it with the policy, and then if a fire oc-
ours Ii will be ready. The best way TO
make such list is to go into each room sep
arately and write down a list of the arti-
cles therein with he value of each If this
is attended to when the policy is taken out,
and both the policy aud list kept in some
safe place in another building from that in
which the insured property is kept, much
trouble may be avoided.
