An important subject for considers
ton at the Federation meeting next
year will be the proposed amendments
to the constitution. the result Of careful
study by the constitution committee,
Mrs. Draper Smith, Mrs. Stoutenbor-
ough and Mrs. Gault.
1t seemed advisable to have the article
relating to membership precede the one

becomes Article Ill. As il now stands,
the article reads: Clubs desiring to
join this federation shall make spplica-
tion." By the proposed change the sen-
tence will read: ANY womsn's club
with objects unsectarian and non-par.
tisan." 1t is slso proposed to strike out
the closing sentence: "A majority vote
OF the executive board present at any
meeting shall be necessary to admit to
membership" and to substitute . new
section called section g" which declares
The corresponding secretary shall pre-
sent each application TO the executive
board at the session following its receipt,
and q majority vote Of those present
shall admit the club to membership"
Article Ill becomes Article Nv. and
as amended will resd: The officers
shall be g president, vice president. re-
cordine secretary, corresponding secre.
tary. treasurer, auditor and librarian.
These officers with the General Fedora.
ton secretary shall constitute an execu-
tive board for the transaction of the
business Of the state federation. subject
to lite directions, and shall make q full
report at each biennial meeting. In
addition to these officers above mem
toned there shall be vice president for
each congressional district in the state. /"
Article vi. in regard tn the annual
meeting, will be changed to meetings
shall take place every two years, the
second week in October, beginning in
1904. at such place a. the executive
bosrd shall decide"
In Article VII. referring to the cleo
ton Of officers, the sentence "The cleo.
ton Of officers shall take place at the
annual meeting" will be changed to:
'Officers shall be elected biennially and
shall not be eligible to successive re-
election to the same Office" 1t is further
amended by TIE addition Of q new SEC
ton. which lie, mo person shall hold
more than one Office at q time"
Article VIII now reads: 1.-THE annual
dues. payable in advance Of the annual
meeting. shall be two dollars for each
club of fifty or less members. and one
dollar additional for each fifty members
or major fraction thereof after the first
fifty members" When amended, and
with the addition OF two new sections,
it will read: The annual dues shall be
three dollars for each club Of fifty or
fewer members and one additional dol
lar for each fifty members or major frac.
ton thereof after the first fifty members
and shall be paid annually to the treas
urer by September Is. beginning with the

of cattle and a small farm worth about two
hundred dollars; and,
Whereas, The condition Of the applicant ia
known to this body, we unhesitatingly express
our belief that the same should lie granted for
the following reasons:
!. That he is incapacitated for work, and
could not make support upon his little farm
we're he able to labor.
2. That he is in his nth year, and still suffers
from gunshot wound received during the
war.
8. That he has no family except his wife, who

port, and that the value of the cattle owned by
applicant is so small as to contribute very little

Public Schools.

N-N'~N
Public Schools.
The enrolment in the public schools of Bruins
wick is as follows: White sch DOL, 2S4 boys and
2s girls, total 56z; colored school, 20l boys and
25l girls, total 452 grand total 1914. The aver
age attendance for the year in the white
school was ~ per cent ana in the cOl0red school
rs per cent. The graduating class Of white
school numbered boys and ~ kirIs, being the
largest class that ever graduated in the history
of the high school, The crying need is more
money to employ more teachers. In the white
schools, the average number of pupils to each
teacher is At, colored school, 70. 1t is the
sense of this grand jury that 30 or IS pupils are
ms many as one teach er should be required to
instruct We find that the Superintendent Of
Public Schools has made no report for the
school year 1901, Of the several country schools.
We recommend that the school commissioners
pro rata the school fund on a per capita basis
of last scholastic years attendance, which we
believe would be more Sal isfactory to the ben
eiicianies Of the school fund.
Public Buildings.
We find the public school buildings of the
county outside of the city are in good condit-
ings in the city OF brunswick are in very bad
condition and need repair which should be
done at once. We also find the Rislcy school
building in bad condition. The county jail we
find in very good and clean condition, but
there are certain necessary repairs which we
| Recommend the Commissioners have attended
| to as carly as practicable. We are advised
| that the necessary repairs to the school build
ings in the city can be made at cost not eX-
| ceeding 5000, therefore we urge upon the board
of education to make special effort to apprO-
pirate this amount in order that the work may
| be done and the PROPERTY not allowed to fur
Their depreciGte ia value.
County Officers.
We find the books of the Ordinary in good
condition, neatly aud correctly kept. Clerk OF
Superior Court: We have examined his books
and lind them neatly and correctly kept. The
jury feel it their duty TO compliment the clerk
| upon his new method of recording with type
writer instead of the old method of handwrit-
| ing, it being more easily read and more writing
placed upon page. We respectfully request
the commissioners to purchase another type
writer for said office.
| sheriff: We find his books neatly and COR
| rectly kept
| justices OF Peace and Notaries We have
also examined the different books of the
Justices of the peace and find them, as
a rule, neatly and correctly kept, with
the exception of Justice Knight, of the
9th district, G. M. and Justice Sapp, of the
| lB56th district, who failed TO send in their
books.
We ind that acancy has occurred in the
| l499th district, q. Nj. We therefore recommend
the appointment of Mr.. j. l.. Eddings as notary
public and eX-onlcio justice of the peace for
that district,
The Brunswick times-call., 1901-07-07
Public Roads.

We find the roads OF the county in bad condi-
ton. The road near the canal bridge has been
put IN bad condition by parties hauling timber
over it, and therefore 1t 10 the sense OF this
body after mature elaboration that no indi-
Vidual or firm, resident or nonresident, be
allowed to use for the purpose of hauling tim
Der or piling on any of the public roads Of this
county, on what is known more especially as
the shell roads, which were constructed at q
cost of some 5000 or 5000 to the taxpayers Of
said county, We therefore most earnestly re-
quest the chairman of roads and revenue to at
once take steps to prohibit all parties who are
now using said roads for their pecuniary gain
% the detriment of the taxpayers OF said
county, and that said road be at once repaired
We also recommend that all railroad crossings
ON the public roads be at once placed in good
condition by planking same. We also recon-
mend that mile posts and sign boards be placed
ON all the different roads OF the county.

In order to protect the fish and oyster inter-
ests of this county the jury recommend the
strict enforcement of the law; and to further
protect the wholesale destruction of spawning
fish, that our representative to the general
assembly be instructed to enact a law TO pro-
hiblt the catching OF fish wit nets, senes or
other like devices in the waters of this county

cities that persons known to be "condi-

for such customers to call for piece OF

The watering trough OF Pickering
Square, Bangor, is said to have more
peculiar history than any otherSlmilar
object in the state or In New England.
Years ago, when Capt. Charles San
ford owned a steamboat line between
Bangor and Boston, making a trip or
two a week with squatty steamer the
friends OF the captain and owner decid-
ed that they would make him an origl-
nal present on an anniversary ana
they ordered huge granite punch
bowl At first the idea of a bowl
feet high and feet In diameter was
not conceived, but II came to the mind
OF one of the friends and the order was
changed so as to make the present OF
unheard OF dimensions, and OF rough
granite without inscriptions. The
people VINO made II thought there was
something out OF the ordinary In the
wind and they put extra work into It,
The affair was shipped TO Bangor and
was formally presented to the captain

day the owner thought he would take

the bowl somewhere, as at the critical
moment the rope parted and punch
bowl and tackle and nearly the whole
crew went into the river at once. The
bowl stayed where II sank for num-
ber OF years. as the feet OF steamers
that landed at the wharf didn't draw
