A Blt OF Comedy Between TrainA a.
a New York Elevated Rail
road station.

A messenger boy, small trim, reticent
and deliberate in his movements,
walked up the steps of a Sixth avenue
elevated railroad station. reports the
New York Sun, went quietly along The
passageway between the ticket sellers
window ard the ticket choppers box,
and there dropped his ticket. The tick
ct chopper being at that moment stand
ing, stretching his legs, the messen-
ger kept on around the ticket box and
dropped in the ticket choppers chair
without a word or a look for anybody.
II guess you were born tired" said
the ticket ehopper. No reply from the
messenger.
When the next passenger dropped a
ticket in the box the messenger boy
reached forward and grasped the han
die of the lever and raised il up and
let the ticket fan down from the hop
per into the box below, throwing the
lever up through its full sweep slowly.
but to the limit with a manner that
was at once languid and precise.
"There-that1l do" said the ticket
chopper. "rll attend to that part
Of it,"
Still paying no attention to him, the
messenger got mp and walked away.
He~had chopped one ticket, that's all
he wanted to chop; and now he strolled
down the platform as calm, as grave
faced, as reticent as ever, as cool, even
in this weather, an the proverbal Gu
cumber.

MAINE Iv~. 4o4> SALE.
II Is Hopelessly bankrupt and No
One Seems to Want ii at
Any Price.

The Down of Somerville, Lincoln
county, Me, is for sale to the high
est bidder, and it isn't expected that
anyone will bid very high for the
place, says the New York Sun. Som
erville is hOpelessly bankrupt, and
has been so for long time. 1t was
formerly known as Patricktown plan
tation. and is 30 miles north of the
ancient town Of Wiscasset. Forty
years ago there were about 600 iR-
habitants III The place, and now there
are only $50 while the valuation has
fallen off from 100000 in 1890 TO
about $4,000 at present.
No particular cause is assigned for
the plight IN which Somerville finds
itself as the century's end. 1t seems
81 have just dried up and it is the
best example known of the decayed
rural town Of New England-the place
of deserted mills. tumble-down houses
and abandoned farms. The industries
never amounted to much, consisting
of some little old-fashioned sawmills,
and although the soil is as good as
in the prosperous towns all around
it, farming in Somerville seems to
have been failure in this generation.
Now the town, with its nominal val
uation of $4,000, has a debt of $780,
0o0 which il cannot pay, and the chief
wonder is how such debt was ever
contracted No one in Somerville has
paid any taxes for ever so long. and
the assessors don't know how to get
what is due TO the town, to the coun-
ty and TO the state. The state as
SCISSORS have no suggestions to make
FOR the benefit of the local officials;
Gov Powers doesn't know any rem
ody for the condition OF affairs and
the legislature won't do anything for
fear that there would be rush of
other poverty-sticken towns for re-
lief on the same basis.
The only thing 10 do is to sell the
town outright, and that is what the
people of Somerville want TO do. They
think that possibly some rich man
from the big cities might want the
place for private park, for which
purposes it offers many advantages,
but at last accounts no one had made
any offer.

Carson Again Victorious.

The sun scorched the diamond at the
race track Sunday and so did the Car
son baseball team. The Reports ar
rived with their full team and full of
confidence. The Carson people are
evidently enthusiasts on this matter
and fully 400 people witnessed the
game which proved IN easy thing for
the Carson nine.
Umpire Cowing called game about
2:30 with Virginia at the bat, and the
inning resulted in . whitewash. Car
sons FIRST inning was also tallieless.
In the second inning the Reports
scored no runs, while in Carson's sec
ond inning 3 runs were made. The
Reports crossed the plate twice in their
third inning and Carson was again
whitewashed. The beginning Of the
fourth inning meant 70 runs fer Vir-
ginia, while in the ending of the in
ming the Carson nine began its heavy
stick work and made 8 runs. The
score at the end of the fifth inning was
II to in Carson's favor. In the fol-
lowing innings Carson scored runs
and the Reports 5, making the score at
the beginning of the ninth inning Is to
in favor of the Carson team, with its
last inning unplayed.
While not an errorless game it was
an exciting one, although at no stage
OF the contest was the Carson team in
danger Of defeat. The indi eid ual play
