The Winner.

He eats potatoes with his knife.
He speaks of 1.-The old woman" when
He makes reference to his wife,
But he receives Salutes from men
Who have no time to notice me:
His speech Is rude and rough: he's Gu;
From coarse material, and he
Has done the world no service-but
He's making money.
Art Is to him an empty word,
To him the bard is but a jest;
No graceful sonnet ever stirred
Responsive chords within his breast.
With elbows squared he crowds along,
All ignorant of cultures laws,
And gentle people in the throng
Stand back and bow to him-because
He's making money.

speaking Of the service there and in
the sub stations in his jurisdictions:
Last week over sixty applicants were
examined at my station in this city
and sub stations in Waterville and
Pressure Isle, and this section of the
State is furnishing about forty men a

quite a large percentage of these be-
ing men who have seen service before
either in the regulars or volunteers.
Few couples live to celebrate their
golden weddings. Still fewer are they
who can look back over go years and
more of happy married life. People
who have lived long enough to count
the years until they number ten more
than half a century from the time
were married have generally outlived
their brothers and sisters, but there is
in Portland a couple who will next
June celebrate the 62d anniversary of
their marriage and on that occasion
they win receive the congratulations of
a brother and sister who have been
married So years. On the first of
June. 1870, Nathan Way married Maria
D. Newell. Ten years later, on
March s. 1850, Nathan's younger
brother. Erastus, married Cynthia
Newell. sister of Nathan's wife. All
four are now healthy and happy.

THE CONTROL OF ANARCHISM
Congress Is TO Be He'd IN Paris to Discuss
pie Question.
INTERNATIONAL TREATY IS DESIRED
NJ LepIne, tho Prefeet Of the Paris police, Declares
That Anarchy Must Be Better Controlled In
British and American centers.


Paris, November 22.-Believing that the question
Of the freedom of anarchists belongs TO municipal
rather than TO Federal governments Lepine, project
Of the Paris police intends to invite the chief cities
Of Europe and America to send delegates to congress
to be held in Parts year discuss the possibility
of an international agreement on the subject Be.
fore the recent attack made on King Leopold, NJ
Lepine had already entered into correspondence with
New York London, Berlin and Brussels and his appeal
had met with little moro than apathetic approval
Now the contrary 1t is likely that the Belgian out
rage will go long way to accomplish the desired
union Of the opponents of anarchy.
said:
THE burden of detection and control Of anarchists
always falls on the individual police department.
Therefore they alone OF the crying necessity
for an International understanding the subject.
They alone ought to be charged with forming CON
gress to deal with the subject Moreover certain gov
ernments have already made clear that they never
intend officially to participate in such movement.
Nevertheless long such uncontrolled hotbeds Of
anarchy as the English capital and Patterson, N. J..
continue to exist life and order will hang in the ball
ance The best sentiment in the old world Is on the
side OF the proposed union"
NJ. Lepne added that meantime It is very convenient
from point of view to have such centers since they
enable the authorities the easily to watch the
anarchists and to keep track of all their movements.
But" said he, II have reached the conclusion that
so long as England and America offer asylums to an.
archism it not be suppressed

Great Britain Is Threatening to Bring About Serious

London, November 22.-Great Britain IS contem-

ISOLATED Press also is officially informed that Great
Britain is acting with Germany in all matters reat.
ing to the present state OF affairs in Venezuela.
Whether the contemplated action will take the form
OF Joint naval demonstration accompanied by or
following the severance Of diplomatic relations is
a matter now being discussed in Berlin and London.
There is reason to believe the British government
has been officially otherwise informed that the
United States will not interfere in any demonstration
for the protection of British interests The reports
chat Great Britain and Germany have been urging
Minister Bowen at Caracas to join In the demonstra-
ton dscredited here. it is pointed out that both
Berlin and London have thorough understanding
regarding the policy involved with Washington. The
Venezuelan protest against the British soop entering
the Orinoco has been received by the foreign
minister. The foreign office views these merely as
an endeavor by venezuea's authorities to Offset the
demands made by the British minister at Caracas
foreign office official said to the representative
Of the Associated Press:
I'VE regard this latest publication as merely an
endeavor to cover up the real issues and blind the
eyes of other nations TO our frequent demands for

while last night Mr. John Morley chiefest Of the anti

the headquarters of ant-war radicalism, bring down
blessings on the task on which the arch enemy Of both
Mr. Joseph Chamberlain sets out next Tuesday.
This Morley tribute with the BothaChamberlain
correspondence published today, and the comparative
public indifference to the newly published Kruger
memories indicates more decisvey than anything else
that the war with all It's bitter political associations
is being pushed into the back ground Of history by
the problems OF South African reconstruction in which
Mr. Chamberlain may II he fulflls his present
promise become tho representative Of the whole
tion, enjoying the cooperation and support of the
beet OF the men who during the his most
active opponents There were few national liberal
cries Of mo when MI Morley declared that Mr.. Cham

owners are concentrated at this moment upon efforts
TO induce Mr. Chamberlain to case the stock exchange
tension before bis departure by setting limit TO tho
proposed imperial taxation OF the mines; in other
words, by the ucing of his own and Lord Miners
hands
Mr. Morley would seem to have reason to holieve
that Mr. Chamberlain means 10 60 his own way and
keep stiff back i'm his dealings with the Rand mil
