Thomas H. Marshall Post, G. A. R., had a
mock court martial Tuesday evening. Sam
uel Morse was accused OF cheating W. H.
Sanborn in selling him Thanksgiving
chicken It was found that the bird was
one that Morse traded sheep for before he
went into the army. Verdict, not guilty !;
but don't do it again.
The Parlor Musical Society held re-
hearsal at the Universalst vestry Tuesday
evening, November 9th. In spite of the
inclement weather there was good attend
ance, and the evening was probably spent
in work upon the festival music. The next
rehearsal will be held in the vestry Tues
day, December 4th, at 7-3O O'Clock. The
members of the executive committee are re-
quested to meet at that evening.
As an illustration of the unreliability of
some of the alleged news sent out to the
daily papers may be mentioned lot of Bel
fast marriage and birth notices, clipped
from a Maine daily and sent to the City
Clerk for an explanation as to why he had
not reported them to the State Registrar Of
Vital Statistics An investigation showed
that two of the marriages took place in
other towns and the parties did not belong
here One marriage occurred here, but the
names were so badly twisted that the Regis
trar did not recognize it as one he already
had One birth notice was bogus, the
parties having no child born within a year
of the date given, and the others were Of
parties not known here.

OUR CALENDARS FOR 700,

We wish to announce to our patrons
that our Beautiful Souvenir Calendar
for 1901 will be ready for distribution
December Is, 1900, and that coupons
for the same can now be procured at
our store. !.
1t has been our custom since starting
in business to present our patrons at
the first of every year with a calendar
But we find even the distribution of
calendars has it's drawbacks; in fact. to
such an extent that last year, although
our supply was much larger than ever
before, we were obliged to disappoint
many of our best customers on account
of our supply lasting only a few DAYS:
thus placing our out Of town customers
at great dis advantage. Therefore we
have decided to give all our patrons an
equal chance, and no person yiu be giuen
calendar before January 1, 1901, ,vho is
not entitled to coupon.
This method we trust will meet your
approval, as we have been to great ex-
pense in selecting calendar that will
be an ornament to any household, and
have formulated this new idea in order
to give all our patrons a fair show.

IL
The first snow of the season came Sun
day, Nov. 25th. 1t was light and came to a
depth Of inches. A few sleighs were out
during the day. During the night there
was change to sleet and rain, but enough
snow remained for some to continue on run
ners throughout the day Monday. In the
forenoon the trees were coated heavily with
ice. The telegraph and telephone lines
were badly broken down and communica-
ton was cut off from Eastern Maine to Port
work promptly and connections restored as
fast as possible. The rain and sleet contin-
ued Monday night and Tuesday. Wednes-
day opened clear, with a high north wind,
and the mercury at 150.
AN EvAsIvE ANSWER More in sorrow
than in anger, we were led to enquire the
other day why Rockland, once so fair and
friendly, had begun to make faces at Bel
fast. 1t used not to be so. Rocklands
singers, lecturers, and those who came on
pleasure bent, received generous welcome
here; and so it was with our people who

sign of jealousy, no pickering. All at once
the Rockland press assumes the attitude of
the midnight cat on the backyard fence and
yowls at Belfast. In reply to our modest
enquiry why this is thus the Rockland
Courier-Gazette boasts of the lime kilns of
our sister city and brings in the Warren
ball team, proceeding so wildly irrelevant
as to excite our special wonder. 1t does not
answer our enquiry. 1t reminds us of one
Of Kate Vannah's stories. A priest who did
not want to be disturbed instructed his
serving man to deny him to all visitors.
When the man asked what he should say to
callers, the priest replied: so, give them an
evasive answer" So when the first caller
enquired if his reverence was in, the man
replied: SIS your grandmother boot owl ?"

That Poll Tax.

The following from Ed. Wilson'S
timely talk IN the New Orleans Plea.
yune is IA gentle reminder that the
poll tax delinquent is rot a very good
citizen. He says: t~IN( :
"The man who does not pay his poll
tax on or before the first day OF Feb.
ruary next, under the Seawright bill
will have his, name published in his
county paper as n delinquent. as q
man who refuses to contribute ~ tx
the education OF his children, but Is
willing for his neighbor to do so, ant
let them reap an education by TIN
sweat of the other fellows face. More
over, he will be DISTINGUISHED, ant
cannot vote at the polls, and will rur
"a risk of a 5000 fine and six months ii
Jail If he hereafter attempts to vote II
a primary, for the taxpayers are tiret
of having their votes killed by such
political driftwond, and the judges Ol
the State may be expected to charge
the grand juries, who are composed OF
taxpayers, to indict such persons, ant
the district attorneys, who 10 tht
future must look to the taxpayers fol
election, will not fail to do their par,
OF the business up to the hilt."
