BANGOR, Me-, October 16.-Down in
the backwoodS of New Brunswick.
where hard work is plentiful and
money scarce, the course of true love
is often as rough as a corduroy road
and Cupid inclined to be business like.
This has been well illustrated at Shelf
field, where Charles McBeath adopted
a very ungallant course toward Sadie
Jordon, because, after he had courted
her for ever so long and showered her
with gifts she changed her mind and
told him that she had mo notion" of
marrying him. Charles was willing to
charge up his time to profit and loss,
but the memory of the presents was
bitter to him. and so he brought suit
against Sadie's father, she being under
age, to recover the value of the pres
ents.
The case was tried before Squire
William Harrison and was heard by the
entire population. Charles sued to re-
cover on the ground that Sadie had
broken her promise to marry him, on
the strength of which promise and for
no other consideration the presents had
been given. The mercenary lover put
in the following bill for things wasted
upon Sadie Jordan, who fooled him:

GENERATIONS OF DIPLOMATS.
The Fox Family Holds the Record in
the Consular Service-Locnted
at Falmouth, Eng.

The family with the longest record
in diplomatic service is the Fox fam
lily. Four successive generations the
Fox family have held the post of con-
sui at Falmouth, England, since May
80, 1894, when President Washington
appointed as representative of this
government to that place Robert W..
Fox. On his death his son was ap-
pointed to the place, to be succeed
ed by the grandson, Howard Fox,
who is the present consul, and whose
son is the vice consul. The latter, it
is likely, will be appointed to sue
coed his father on the latter's retire
ment or death.
There have been many demands
made on each change of administra-
ton to GUST the Fox family, who are
English people, but the state depart
ment, largely for sentimental rea-
sons, has made no change in the Of
fee.
1t has been generally supposed that
Consul spragUe at Gibraltar and his
family had been longest in the diplo-
lmatic service, but the Fox's have
held Office under the state department
for a much longer period.
