HIGH SCHOOL DAY.

A few weeks ago The Journal suggested
that one day in Old Home Week be observ-
ed as High School Day, for reunion of the
teachers and pupils from the beginning of
the school in 1858 to the present day. OF
the large number who have been connected
with the school in the 4S years, many live
in and near Belfast and many others will be
here Old Home Week, and the plan of a re-
union meets with favor wherever it is men
toned. The number of teachers is a mat
ter of surprise at first thought to many,
even to those who have kept well in touch
with school affairs.
The following list of principals of the
school has been prepared, but there are
doubtless some omissions of teachers who
were here for short periods: VIM. H.
Hobbie was here from 1858 to 1859 or go
and Mr.. Craig succeeded him for short
time. VIM. II. Hodges of Lincolnville
taught in 1860 He was followed by Philo
Hersey, who resigned in 1862 to enlist in the
26th Maine Regiment. Edwin Emery, the
next teacher, also enlisted. For several
years the teachers had short terms of ser
vice. The list included Reuben Rideout,
George Hartman, Charles Curtis, Mr..
Meservey, P. c. Wiley, Mr.. Fogg and A. 1.
Brown. VIM. A. Huston came here in 1869
and was succeeded in 1875 by Augustus H.
Kelley. VIM. c. Curtis taught few months
in 1882, and J. F. Rich began in January
1883. He taught until 1888, followed by John
R. Dunton, who after year and quarter
was succeeded by F. Wallace Chase. In
1893 R. L. Ilsley succeeded Mr.. Chase, and
remained until 1898, when he went to Boston
and Hugh D. Mcclellan became teacher.
Will R. Howard, the present teacher, took
charge in 1899.
Theassistants have included Mary Moore,
Amanda Hartman, Mary P. Beaman, Sarah
Patten, Miss Roberts, Mr.. Starrett, Miss
Eastman, Clara Farwell Carter, F. R. Wood
| cock, Ella A. White, Susan c. Starrett, Mary
P. French, Elizabeth M. Pond, Lillian P. Rob-
bins, Jane A. Mcclellan, Addie NJ Wescott,
Caroline W. Field and Ellen d. Townsend.
Prior to 1879 there were no regular gradua,
ton exercises, but in that year class of
six graduated from the regular courses.
Since then the graduates number two hun.
dred and twenty-seven.

IN BRIEF. Benjamin E. Woolf, must
cal and dramatic critic and playwright,
died Feb. 18th, at his home. 1850 West
Brookline Street, Boston. He had been
i'll with Bright's disease for about six
months. At the time of his death he
was musical critic of the Boston I! erald
and had been connected with that paper
several years. Before that he was with
the Saturday Evening Gazette....It is
estimated that the Canadian gold fields
yielded last year 1851, s62 ounces of gold
valued at S26,000,0O0. Compared with
the proceeding year, 1899, this is an in
crease in ounces of about 250,0OO, and
in value of $5,000,0 O0.... With the begin
ming of the year Greenwich time was
adopted as the standard in Spain. Hol-
land and Belgium took such action years
ago.. Upwards of 5000 wreaths, worth
half million dollars, were sent to Wind
sor for the Queens funeral. "A recent
list compiled Of the largest steamship
companies of the world shows that the
Elder-Dempster Co. has made very
rapid strides during the last few years.
1t now leads all of the English steam
ship lines and takes third place with the
largest of the world. This line has 12O
ships with gross tonnage of 3s2, $50, ex-
ceeding any other line.

MAINE FIRE STATISTICS.

Hon. S. W. Carr, State insurance
commissioner, has compiled table
showing the number of fires which oc-
CURED in the State during the past
year, as well as the cause in each case,
the loss sustained and the value Of
property exposed.
The total number of fires during the
period was 1884, involving property
valued at 81, O95, 943, and causing losses
aggregating $1,SSS,6 a decrease of
$50, 200 from the figures of last year.
In 3O5 cases total loss resulted.
Defective chimneys and flues were
responsible for more fires and greater
loss than any other known cause, 293
fires having originated from them and
causing loss of more than $3.50, 900.
Lightning is given second place on the
list, with total of 1888.
There was an average of one fire
each day for the entire year where the
cause was reported as unknown" and
children playing with matches are
charged with responsibility for start
ing A fires, causing loss of $685. and
endangering nearly 100000 worth of
property.
Mice and matches exposed $4,000
worth OF property to danger, and in
year by nearly $4,000.
One fire was started from the suns
rays shining upon a tin can, and 81
others are in the list as due to the
carelessness of tobacco smokers
Sixty-four fires originated from
sparks from locomotives, destroying
S132, 760 worth of property, and sponta-
neous combustion caused loss estimat-
ed at S17,S94.
The value of property exposed to fire
originating in the latter manner is
placed at $3S5,171; an even 100000
worth of property was endangered by
fires which caught from gas jets, but
the entire loss from this cause was
only $741.
An interesting table showing the
percentage of fires of unknown and
''incendiary'' origin for several years
since the enactment of the law provid-
ing for the investigation of fires also
has been made up by Mr.. Carr, and a
very marked decrease in the percentage
is shown.
The law went into effect in May, 1895,
and during the remainder of that year
the cause of 1854 percent of all fires
was given as unknown" while s64
percent were reported as 'incendiary"
Since that time each year has seen a
steady decrease in the percentage until
in 1900 only 1927 percent were report
ed as ''origin unknown" and only 1s5
percent as ''incendiary."
There were only 35 incendiary fires in
the State during 1900, against SO for the
year $780, a decrease of nearly "a per-
cent.

BRONCHITIS.
We Know is Hard to
Control.
Our VinOl Is Making a Won.
derful Record in Curing
This Dangerous
Disease.
CALL AND LET US TELL YOU
ABOUT 1T.

Here is letter that has just come to
our attention. It will interest people
suffering from bronchial troubles. It
is from Mr.. Geo. w. Brown, of So. Han
over, N. H., and reads as follows:
81 have suffered with bronchial trou-
bles for over year; tried two doctors
and have taken three or four kinds of
medicine, none of which did me any
good. At times was Sc hoarse I
could not speak. Then 1 heard of
Vinol. After taking three bottles of
it my voice has perfectly returned to
me. I can see that in a short time I
will be all right. When began to
take it was very weak, but it has
built me up and given me good appe-
tite.'
This is what vinol always does.
This is the way Vinol accomplishes its
mission of doing good.
Vinol, as we wish every one to know,
owes its power of accomplishing the
c1res that it effects to the fact that it
contains the most wonderful medicinal
elements known to science for the cure
of all wasting diseases, as well as be-
ing in itself a marvellous tonic. These
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. vehere-
tofore been found only in cod-liver oil
Vinol contains these elements. For by
q scientific process the necessary cura-
tive properties of the cod-liver oil have
been separated from the fat and grease
which formerly made cod-liver oil prep
aratiohs SO Objectionable.
As long as Vinol does not contain any
of the vile-smelling oil, and is pre-
pared by combining the sought-after
properties with a delicate table wine,
It Is a most delicious and palatable
preparation.
We know of what we speak when
we recommend Vin0l, and because
we do know that VinOl does all we
claim for it, we unhesitatingly en-
dorse it, and guarantee at any time
to refund the money paid for the
remedy if you are not satisfied it
will do all we claim for it.
