mer guests, guides houses, boat houses
and other essentials, well-stocked gen.
eral store, and post office. The post
Office is in the Office of the hotel, and has
three mails per day in summer and one
in winter. The daily drive of twenty
miles up the wind-swept lake in winter
must be rugged task for the mail car
rier.s
The service at the Mount Kineo House
leaves nothing to be desired. The rooms
are as well furnished as if in the city,
and the windows of every room COM
mand a good view of lake or mountain or
both. The cuisine is varied and excel
lent, and all the employees are prompt,
courteous and obliging. The manager,
G. A. Judkins, is a young man of 333
years, who has grown into his present
position and fills it admirably. He is an
ideal host, and the various business in
terests which are under his care are so
well organized that he assumes the gen.
eral direction of affairs and leaves most
matters of detail to subordinates, and
everything seems to run as by clock
work.

UNDER KlNEo'S BLUFF.
EXCURSION OF THE MAINE PRESS AS
ISOLATION TO THIS BEAUTIFUL SPOT.

The Democrat had a representative in
the Maine Press Association party which
made the annual excursion during the
week beginning June 80, going to the
Mount Kineo House, on MoOsehead Lake
Regarded as matter of news, the story OF
the excursion is now, of course, ancient
history, with which branch of literature
newspapers are supposed to have nothing
to do; but it is never too late to give
some brief description of one of the
most beautiful spots which nature has
provided in this beautiful state of ours,
or to give some idea of what man has
done there for the benefit of the race.
The Maine Press Association, which
knows good thing on sight, never fails
to 60 to Kineo when it has an oppOrtu-
nifty. Three times before this year it has
the objective point of the annul excur-
sion, some of the members in earlier
years having to use up parts of two days
to get there. Hardly an annual meeting
keasses that somebody does not suggest
Kineo for the excursion; and some years
ago, when a projected excursion into
New Brunswick failed at the last mo-
ment, the bulk of the party promptly
decided to do the next best thing, and
started at once for Kineo.
Most of the party assembled, in the
early afternoon of Monday, June 30, at
the Maine Central station in Waterville,
which city is quite railroad centre, and
to which the members had come from
various directions by trains which gave
them from ten minutes to five hours of
,,, Not ho1 foH ha
Maine Central at Lewiston, and along
the way between that city and Water
vile had been impressed with one fact.
The railroad skirts the shores of some
of the most beautiful of the smaller
lakes of Maine. A few summer cottages
are to be seen along the way; yet there
are miles of shore waiting for the build
ing of summer homes and breathing
places, costly or inexpensive as the case
may be, and the future will see many of
these opportunities improved. In fact,
there are few lake shores in Maine that
are yet fully appreciated.
BY the courtesy of the Maine Central,
our party was given special private
car at Waterville, which went through
to the foot of MoOsehead Lake at Green
vile, though it did go through some re-
markable changing of ends and shifting
of positions. The company being as
sembled in one car, an excellent OPP
.portunity was afforded for the renewing |
of old acquaintance and the forming of
new ones. The new acquaintance were
few, as most of the party had been on
other excursions and attended the win
ter meeting of the association, some of
them for many years. There were on
this trip four of the five remaining men,
bers who helped organize the association
in 1S64-Maj. E. Rowell of Hallowell,
H. K. Morrell of Gardiner, NJ. n. Rich
of Portland, and Frank G.. Rich of Ban
gor. The full list, including some who
made a shorter stay than the whole
week, is as follows:

LOCAL NEWS.

The action of the county commits
siOners last week in making levy Of
four mills for the court house expense
fund is the first step towards building
a new court house in Julcsburg. a
four mill levy will raise about $4,000 a
year, and in two or three years a sum
sufficient for a county building can be
obtained. Since the people voted down
the bond proposition at the late elec-
tiOn, there was no other course left to
the commissioners but to prepare for
a new court house by direct tax levy.
Their action in making the levy was
sanctioned by the business men of
Julesburg who interviewed the com
missioners Thursday morning and urg-
ed them to take this course.
