A Record Passage.

Word has reached New York that
there arrived in the bay at Gourock,
Scot, about noon on Aug. l, after pas
sage of u days and eight hours from
Halifax, to the Clyde, the well known
American schooner yacht Endymion,
belonging to Mr.. Geo. Lander Jr. of
Pittsburg This passage across the At
lantic, which is record one, was &C
complished under favorable circum-
stances. From the time she left the
American side until she was off the
Irish coast she was on the one tack all
the time, namely the starboard, having
booms off to port. The wind, which at
times was very strong, was either COM
ing right astern, or over the starboard
quarter. None of her sails had to be
reefed, a notable incident during an
ocean voyage, as also is the fact that
her tolmasls were on end all the time
and not housed, as is generally the case.

Fortunes for Rods and Guns.

Just now in this fishing season some
of the anglers of Chicago are putting
fortunes into tackle, rods and flies.
Bert Seaboldt, ''the asphaltum king" of
Utah, is preparing for a little fly fishing
in the Rocky mountains. Mr.. Seaboldt
will receive bill for little more than
S17OO for his outfit.
You can buy trout rod in depart
ment store as low as S1.75, but Mr.. Sea-
boldt will not have rod in his collec-
ton that costs less than $50. A trout
reel may be bought for 60 cents, but
some of Mr.. Seabdldt's reels will cost
him 500 apiece. And a 800 reel
doesn't have any diamonds on the out
side either
A year ago Chicago man took an
order for four shotguns for two officers
of the American tin plate company.
The guns were to be made to measure
ment by the great gunmaker of Lon
don. The barrels we're of Whitworth
fluid steel; there was not speck Of
silver or gold inlaid into barrels or
stock, yet these four guns cost 1868
each, and two of them had extra, in
Interchangeable barrels, each of which
cost $3.50. This made two of the guns
cost s1223 apiece.
These prices will be appreciated when
it is recalled that in few shooting par
ties are there guns that cost more than
S10Neach; most of the field shooting, in
fact, is done with guns costing under
500. \ $500 gun is rarity in any re-
sort.
"Why do men pay 5000 apiece for
guns?" said the dealer, repeating a
question. Simply because that partic-
ular London maker won't turn out one
any cheaper He never makes a gun
for the general market. All are made
on orders. He gets his price for what
he makes, and has enough to keep him
busy.
''These guns won't shoot any better
than $50 gun. They won't last any
longer. They are not any easier to
carry. But these men wanted guns
from this famous maker and they had
to pay his price. Chicago Tribune.

CATHOLIC CHURCH DEDICATED

Exercises Conducted by Bishop O'Connen
of Portland.
| Saint Mary -of-the-Isles, the recently
erected Catholic church at Dark Har-
Dor, Islesboro, was dedicated Aug. Goth,
by Bishop O'Connell of Portland, in
| the presence of large number of cler-
gymen, parishfoners and visitors.
A special boat left Belfast in the
morning carrying Father kealy, pastor
OF the recently dedicated church, and a
number of Belfast people and visiting
clergymen. The boat touched at Cam
den, where Rev. Father P.lelan, pastor
of st. Barnard's R. C. church of Rock
land and the members of the choir
joined the party on the trip to Dark
Harbor.
The church was crowded at 1880, a
large number of summer visitors at
Dark Harbor being present.
Rev. Father Riordan of Gardiner
was celebrant of the mass, Father
Houllhan of Dexter, deacon, FATHER
Reilly of VIM, sub-deacon, and Fathers
Phelan OF Rockland and Charland Of
Waterville, deacons of honor.
The organ recently replaced at St.
Demands Rockland, had been installed
III IllC CuulCu dllu Was dIClSUlCdlly pre-
sided over by Miss Joan McInnis. or
ganist of st. Demands, assisted by the
full choir. During the mass beautiful
offertory solo was rendered by Miss
Julia PoyZer of Rockland.
Following the mass came the dedica-
tory exercises conducted by Rt. Rev.
Bishop O'Connell, assisted by the
priests of the mass, above named, and
the Rev. Fathers Harrington of Orono;
Doherty of Augusta; Michigan of Hal
lowell; Clarity of Winterport; Nebi-
gan of Whitefeld; Cleary of N[illinock-
ct; kealy and Meany of Belfast; Carey
OF Portland; LaFlamme of Bangor
Bishop OConnell delivered a splen-
did dedicatory sermon, dwelling upon
the sacrifice made by both pastor and
his little flock of parishioners in sur
mounting the obstacles and building
the beautiful edifice which will prove
such a great blessing to Dark Harbor
and 1slesboro.
After the services closed Bishop
O'Connell, who is cultured musician,
highly complimented st. Demands

mass

Maine Savings Banks.

The current number of the Bankers
Monthly calls attention to the highly
creditable record of the Maine savings
banks. 1t figures that in the last eighty
years the savings banks of Maine
made investments aggregating over
$500, 100000. OF this vast sum only
about 100000 has been lost, sum
that would be entirely wiped out by six
months interest on the present de-
posits. In eighty years, therefore, the
loss by bad investments OF the savings
banks of the Pine Tree State amounted
to only about .OO23 per cent. of the
sum invested. From 1881 to 1900 these
banks have paid depositors more than
$34, OOO 900 in dividends; and since 1872
they have paid the State taxes amount
ing to more than $4,000 in fact,
the savings banks pay One-fourth of
all the revenue of the State. Since
1872 the dividend rate of the banks in
the whole State has decreased IS per
cent, while their tax rate has increased
go per cent, although at the same time
the State tax rate generally decreased
50 per cent. From these figures it
would seem as though these banks were
now called on to pay more than their
share of the taxes of the State.-Bos-
ton Herald.

And sing your songs of the trundlesbed
Or the bucket that hung in the well.

But because of my love in the days gone by
For head once pillowed there.

ana the shadows of evening fall,

And scenes of the past recall.

Seems to speak to me again:

But the Weakening comes, the picture fades,
And the tears fall thick and fast;
But love the old lounge though it brings
to me
Sad memories of the past.
When at last shall come my last long sleep,
And the sorrows OF life shall end,

The shadow of disgrace shall fall, instead

Let something good be said.
Forget not that no fellow-being yet
May fall so low but love may lift his head
Even the cheek of shame with tears is wet
If something good be said
No generous heart may vainly turn aside
In ways of sympathy; no soul so dead
But may awaken strong and gloritied

And SO charge We, by the thorny crown,
And by the cross ON which the Savior bled,
And by your own SOULS hope of fair re-
