management Is after circulation

we have conceit enough in our

"The necessity for hook and ladder

case of fires on Water street was never
more forcibly impressed upon the
minds of the average citizen than at
the recent fire when three of the fire.

Augustus officials, yesterday. THE
ladder used at that fire." he continued,
was never intended for use except at
fires in small wooden buildings. 1t
should never be used on four-story
buildings: but it was all the tiremen
had and they We're obliged to use it.
The accident resulted. The chief engi-
neer has been insisting in his annual
reports and in vel bal reports for years
that the department needed a hook and
ladder truck ana Il company of men to
handle it. But the city government has
not seen fit 70 comply with the requests
of the wishes of the department in this
particular. Unless something is done
pretty soon there may result a serious
corflagration which might be pre-
vented if the means of fighting fires are
improved

J. p. Merrill's horse, Granite Wilkes
was shipped through here. last night
from Damariscotta to Pittsfield, where
he will participate in the races
Wednesday and Thursday. This little
horse has made Il fine record in the
races he has entered, this fall. He has
won four out of five he has been in
and, in each case. in three straight
heats. He was in the Pittston, Wind
sor. Danariscotta and Readfield races.
He failed to take first place in the race
at Readtield. but was said to have been
sick The best time made in this race
was II seconds slower than his slowes;
time in the other four races, so it looks
as though something was wrong. He

George Kicker and Everett Shaw, the
two firemcn who We're injured ut the
Water street fire, on Thursday evening
last. are getting along rs well as can
be expected. Mr.. Kicker was more Sc
riously injured than was Mr.. Shaw. He
now suffers considerable pain from his
injury and is not feeling so bright and
cheerful as he might if he was not laid
up. He will be unable to get around
again for several months. The physi-
clans are sanguine of being able to
bring him ont without having the leg
shortened to any considerable extent.
Mr.. Shaw is getting quite strong again.
He was able to sit up a while, yester-
day, and the pain in his back is rapidly
disappearing. The fracture of the ell
bow is q very bad one, and it will take
IL long time for it to thoroughly unite.

The 5.45 car out of Winthrop. Sun
day night met with an accident at
Morang's crossing, which caused a de-
lay for the passengers of about an
hour. The car had just crossed Mo-
rang's crossing when the axle on the
rear right end of the car broke. AS
there is a. sharp curve to the right at
this point the car left the track on the
left side and narrowly escaped goin;,
into the gully which is very deep here
and contains some large rocks. The
car at the time was running very slow
1y which fact undoubtedly was the
cause of avoiding serious accident. 1t
was found that the axle had been
broken nearly off previous to this, the
largest portion of the break being an
old one. a telephone message was
sent into the city and special car dis
patched for the passengers.

Not infrequently young woman

waist at home for some emergency
when the laundryman or the home DER

tions for ironing the waist: To iron
summer shirt waists SO that they will
looS like new It is needfui to have
them starched evenly with Defiance
starch, then made perfectly smooth
and rolled tight in a damp cloth. to be
laid away two or three hours. When
ironing have a bowl of water and a
clean piece of muslin beside the iron
ing board Have your iron hot, but
not sufficiently 80 to scorch, and abso-
lutely clean. Begin by ironing the
back. then the front, sides and the
sleeves. followed by the neckband and
the cuffs. When wrinkles appear ap-
ply the damp cloth and remove them.
Always iron from the top of the waist
to the bottom. II there are piaits in
the front iron them downward, after
first raising each one with blunt
knife. and with the edge of the iron
follow every line OF stitching to give IL
distinctness. After the shirt waist is
ironed 1t should be well aired by the
fire or in the sun before 1t is folded
and put away, says the Philadelphia
Inquirer.

against another lady and acted very

his leg above the knee. He give an

as quickly as possible. and Just fell
on the platform.
After reaching the city the Port.
lander took the street car to go to
his hotel. An old man who sat near
him signaled to the conductor and
got on the car on the wrong side. A
vast trench had been blasted out in
the center OF the street. In which a
subway is to be constructed. This
trench is thirty feet in depth, and the
old man stepped from the car down
into 1t. He was picked up and thrown
