NOT in THE PLAY.
A Case yvhcrc Two Actors Displayed
Presence of Mind.

short time ago II great historical
play was being given in an italian
theater. The king had to read his

sentative mobiles of the nation, the gov
ernors of Tie provinces and the heads
of the army.
Clad in his; magnificent robes dined
with rabbit skim he stalked majestic
ally across the stage. anE With fitting
hauteur, slowly ascended the steps
lending to the throne. Every one bowed
low. and the chancellor handed to his
majesty the parchment roll from which
to read the royal speech.
All waited attentively to catch the
words from the royal lips. but his maj
esty found, to his chagrin. that the
roll was blank. The speech was long
and had not been committed to mem
ory.
1t was impossible to get through it
with the aid of the prompter, for he
was too far away to render the need
full service. n bright thought passed
through the royal brain.
Having glanced over the roll as if to
gather the gist of the speech, he again
folded it and handed it back to the
chancellor With the command:
You read it."
The chancellor was somewhat put
out, but dutifully took the roll and
opened it. only to discover the royal
pleasantly. whereupon. again rolling
the parchment up and taking from his
breast the resplendent tin order, lie
laid them together at the kings feet.
with:
Your majesty. as cannot read the
speech. | tender my resignation" and
walked off the stage.

DANCER FROM oVEREATING.
Insanity Often Caused by Too Liber-
nj Indulgence In Food.

nj Indulgence In Food.
1t is we'll known to the few medical
men that many cases of Insanity are
directly due to overeat!ng and the con-
seQaent absorption into the circulation
of toxic matters from the intestinal
tract, and melancholia, whether In mild
or severe form, is generally due to this
cause. Violent paroxysms of temper,
whether in children or adults, are often
properly referable to bad state OF the
blood from this auto toxemia, as are in
deed the exceedingly exuberant spirits
of old or young ut times. Just as we
observe in alcoholic poisoning, some
individuals are made temporarily jolly
ugly and unreasonable.
In view of this condition of affairs
isn't 1t rather n wise plan for us all to
consider rather the needs of the Or
ganism for food than the mere ques-
tion of palate tickling, to aim TO eat
good instead of bad food and enough
Of it-that is, not too much-to have

we act from purely sensual point of
view? In no other way can we secure
the highest possible degree of pleasure
on the average, while by acting thus
sensihly we may enjoy practical i'm
munity from disease.
The more exercise we take under
proper conditions, the more we are ex-
posed to cold, and the clearer we keep
from excess in clothing the more we
may eat; hence, in order to enjoy the
fullest measure of table pleasures, we
must live actively, wear as little CLOTH
ing as is consistent with comfort and
do considerable 'roughing
called hardening. With all this we
should take our meals at times when
the body or brain is not overtired, and
when we "haye leisure to digest" and,
OF all things, we should never eat un-
less we are hungry. TO eat without an
appetite is self abuse of the most
stupid sort, since it affords no pleasure
and is productive of fdisease.-Physical
Culture.

The following dispatch was received

Almost important as the Pekin news in
Wednesdays dispatch was the statement
that the Boxers are again concentrating
around Tien Tsin and that, last Sunday
morning, the 9th Cavalry with about
400 English and American troops had a
lively brush with the Boxers, eight
miles outside of Tien Tsin, where about
100 of the Chinese were killed and five
Americans wounded The casualty list
seems to Indicate sudden and total

Grange Field Day.

Skowhegan grange, with Somerset
grange as their guests, celebrated their
annual field day at the Pines, Wednes-
day, Aug. D. Special cars conveyed
the Skowhegan party at 10 a. m. and the
Norridgewock guest at 1920. The
morning was one of August's finest be-
ing just cool enough to be inviting.
After the usual greetings and short
rambles through the grove, the patrons
were entertained by carefully prepared
lecture by Sister Kate Ellis, lecturer of
Victor grange, Fairfield. Sister Ellis
spoke of her work in connection with
the grange and of the grand work that
the grange was doing. She also spoke
with great feeling in regard to the de-
struction of the birds, and how the farmers
should be united in their protection, as
they are the farmers greatest friend 10
devouring the eggs and young of the
myriads of insects and beetles that are
constantly preying upon their crops.
AT the close of Sister Ellis lecture the
chairman announced dinner, and 10
few minutes the grove was dotted with
merry groups, busily engaged In empty
ing the many boxes and baskets they
had carried with them. Hot coffee was
served by the committee. At one
O'Clock the meeting was called to order
and DR.. G. NJ. Twitchell of Augusta was
introduced, as the speaker of the after
noon. DR.. Twitchell spoke for an hour
upon the trinity,-the farmer, the home,
and the grange. He dwelt particularly
upon the farmers work, and his adapta-
ton TO 1t, ana that If the two were not
in unison 1t would not be success. The
remainder of the day was spent in social
entertainment, and as they returned
home each patron considered the day
well spent, and the cords of brother
hood more closely united.

Conger and his associates have been
rescued from Imprisonment and danger,
but the whole duty of Gen. Chaffee and
his gallant little army is not done.
There are Americans scattered all over
China and they must be rescued and
protected. When these Boxer troubles
began there were two thousand three
hundred American citizens residing at
various places in the Chinese Empire.
There were three thousand five hundred
British, two thousand four hundred JAP
anese, one thousand six hundred Russi-
ans, one thousand one hundred French,
and one thousand one hundred Germans.
Thus it appears, with the exception of
Great Britain, we have more people ip
China than any other nation. Our ac-
count against China is long one and
heavy one. 1t will take long time
for its settlement, and If the fighting is
over, the time for diplomatic negotia-
tions and the exercise of wise states.

tration at Washington has won laurels
thus far. and we confidently expect ex-
hibtion of the same wisdom In the ad-
ustment of these serious difficulties.

others at Pao Ting Flu, which has been

conceded to have occurred on June 30.
John NJ. Gould of Portland says that
he has no doubt but that his daughter
and Miss Morrill, were murdered after

North Arson Campmeeting

No more desirable day for the begin

When Bees beat Troops.

1t is on record that swarm of bees
as weapons of war were used not once
but twice. and with the best possible
effect
When Themiseyra, in Pontus, was
besieged by Lucullus, the Romans en-
ployed turrets, built mounds and made
huge mines beneath the city. While
they were creating the mines the peo-
pie of Themiseyra dug down through
the earth to the mines and then cast In
upon the Roman workers bears and
other wild animals, together with a
swarm of bees.
History repeated itself In England
when the Danes and Norwegans made
their attack upon Chester, about ten
centuries since, The town was held
by the Saxons and some Gallo allies.
who tried stones and boiling water up
on the besiegers without effect. AS
last resource they collected all the bee
hives and upset them into the enemys
camp beneath the city wall
This had the effect Of making things
hum" so to speak, and 1t Is recorded
that the enemy were so badly stung
that they could move neither arms nor
legs.

Law Court Decision,

The following rescript was received,
Wednesday, from the law court:
Somerset, ss.
Inhabitants Of Canaan vs.. Inhabitants
of Calais. Rescript.
Per Curiam-The plaintiff selected its
forum in its own county. A fair trial
was had and the verdict was for de-
PENDANT. We cannot say that the evi.
deDce does not sustain it. The evidence
said to be newly discovered, might have
been obtained before the trial with the
same diligence that was exercised after
1t. We do not think that 1t, II admiss-
ible, would change the result, nor do we
think any irregularity in the empanellng
OF the jury sufficient, under the circum-
stances of the case, to work error.
Upon the whole we think the verdict
should stand.
Motions overruled.
