MAINE CENTRAL EXTENSION.
Its Probable Route Some Rumored Changes
in Location Of Augusta Dcpots.

The Maine Central surveyors have
now been at work, for three days. go
ing over the proposed extension to
Winthrop. and il is learned ON very
good authority that the line of the ex-
tension will follow the main line al
most to Water street. then turn off and
run back of the Farmers hotel, and
then follow the Bond brook gully 10
Coombs Mills, whence ii will swing 10
the west and follow the flats back to
The Forks. The road will then prob
ably run to Cobbosseecontee. thence to
R2ileyville and On TO Winthrop.
There are rumofs that the Maine
Contra! freight depot in this city will
soon be moved some distance north,
just beyond and perhaps on the loca-
lion of the building occupied by T.. r.
Parrot & 60. grain dealers. The land
is owned BY the Edwards Manufacture
ing co. and it is probable that the mill
owners would be glad to grant the rail-
road that location for the sake of hav-
ing their supplies unloaded nearer
their plant.
There is also some talk that the
Maine Central will move its passenge.
depot farther north. One great ad-
vantage that would be thus gained
street would not be 50 often blocked by
trains. No east-bound train of ordi-
nary length can stop before the pres
ent depot without entirely blockading
that street.

TOGUS ELECTRIC ROAD.
Municipal Officers View Proposed Turn from
Water TO Bridge Street.

The mayor and aldermen met. yes
terday afternoon. and viewed the ioca-
ton of the proposed turn which the
Togus extension of the A.. II. & c.. r.
Z. will take in going from Water street
onto the bridge. The plan thought best.
both by the municipal officers and the
promoters. is to have the line of the
railway turn from Water street di-
rectly to the south side of the bridge
and keep that side all the way across
and up Cony hill. In order TO get a
turn at the Water street corner it will
be necessary to take about IL inches
off from the sidewalk on the southeast
corner. The inside rail of the road will
be four feet from the curbing and will
be sufficiently removed to prevent any
possible danger. The cutoff will make
the walk some Is inches narrower on
the extreme edge of the curve, but will
not make any material difference. The
other plan considered. but which has
been given up as unfeasible. was to
cross onto the north side of the bridge
and then. in front of the City building.
cross onto the south side of Cony
street.
There is some talk of making i'm
provements on Water street near Bond
brook bridge. 1t is quite probable that
the hollow south of the bridge may be
filled in. an improvement that would
be greatly appreciated. The matter
was informally talked over by the nu-
nicipaI officers, yesterday afternoon,
and it was thought that before any
improvements in the way of paving
or curbing were considered. the filling
in and levelinS should be done.

AFTER Sickness
Take vinol- Our Great
Strength Creator.
IT GIVES ONE A SPLENDID
APPETITE.
AND QUICKLY REBUILDS
THE SYSTEM.
We Will Refund the Price Of
VinOl If It Fails.

The worst part Of sickness, frequent
ly. is getting over it.
The patients strength is depleted,
his system is generally demoralized,
relapses are continually feared, and
naturally.
The one thing to aid recovery is to
give the patient that which will enable
him to get strong, and at the same time
give strength direct to the different
organs of the body
Nothing will do this like Vinol.
1t acts directly on the stomach, Gre
ates healthy appetite. and enables
the digestive organs to obtain the nee
essary elements to increase the weight
| of the patient and to make new healthy
flesh and muscle tissue and pure, rich,
red blood.
The following is n letter showing
where Vinol was taken and did good
after case of sickness 1t reads as
follows:
81 wish to certify 20 the very great
benefit which has been derived from
the use of Vinol in my family. NV
wife was very sick with the grippe and
afterward was wholly run down. One
bottlc>of Vinol places her on her feet
in better condition than She had been
before in six months. l heartily rec
ommend and endorse it.'-HENRY T.
SrURrEvANT, 81 Huntington ST., Brock

Everything that is in Vinol is
plainly printed OF the label Of
each package.
We know Vinol is a splendid
preparation. and in many cases
we have been able to see for our
selves the wonderful results it
brings about.
Remember that we guarantee
Vinol and refund the purchase
money if you are not satisfied.

ANDREW CARNEGIE is TO GIVE
TWO MILLIONS TO COOPER UNION

Hewitt in his speech at the commence
ment exercises a few days ago. 1t is
learned from an authoritative source
that Mr. Carnegie's purpose is to add
TO the Cooper Union endowment, as
quietly as possible, and very likely in
instalhments, a sum equal TO the total
Of the gifts already received This
means an addition of at least g, 000, 800
TO the general fund
Before leaving for England, Mr. Car
negie discussed with Mr. Hewitt ana
the other trustees of Cooper Union,
plans for broadening the scope Of the
institutions usefulness. Tt was then
decided to do away with che stores on
the ground floor of the building on
the Third avenue side, and to utilize
this space by the establishment of an
industrial museum A nucleus for
such a museum was presented TO the
Union several years ago. and j. Pier
pont Morgan has since contributed
four collections Of textile fabrics and
decorative models. valued in al al
100000. Which make possible the Gre
alton Of a museum second to none IN
the world.

TRYING To BRING WAR TN
SOUTH AFRICA TO a CLOSE
Rumors That Queen WiIhelmina Has Secured the
KaiSeT'S Consent to Use His Influence.
Mrs. BOha Goes to The Hague to Urge President Kruger
to Sue for Peace.

Berlin, June 10.-The KIeins Journal
today prints dispatch from The
Hague. saying that Queen WiIhel-
mina's recent visit here was meant to
obtain Emperor Williams influence to
end the south African war both the
zweibund and the dreibund being will
ing to do so through The Hague arbi-
tratiOn court and that the emperor
consented and the court began work
thereon. The dispatch has created a
sensation here
The Associated Press has just OBJ
tanned the following statement from
the foreign Office, which is authorized
by Count Won BuelOw, the imperial
chancellor:
Neither Great Britain, France nor
Russia appros ched Germany to par
ticipate in any action aiming at ending
the South African war. Germany has
all along distinguished between offer
ing her good offices and Intervention.
To render her good offices would be
qUested it, but ii VIII be remembered
that Great Britain only Joined The
Hague conference on condition that the
Boer states were excluded.
There is no doubt that Mr.. Kruger,
Who is a serious statesman, came to
Europe to obtain the good offices of
several of the powers to end the war,
but there is also no doubt that Great
Britain does not want their good Of
fees. At least. it is true that since
the South African war began Great
Britain has never, either verbally or
in writing. confdentially or officially
preached such an idea 1t is quite
possible that the BOer side has now
formally asked The Hague arbitration
court TO lend its aid to end the war
somehow, and that the court has held
a session regarding the matter, but
that, Of course, is entirely different
