c. C. Brooks, well-known in this
city on account of his former connec-
ton with the North Wayne Tool Co,
whose main offices are in this city,
has been passing the summer on the
shores of Big Carry lake, several miles
from Carrabasset, and reports the
presence of an abundance of big game
in that vicinity. He thinks that poach-
ing has been less prevalent through
out the surrounding section than fcr
some years. Deer may be seen every
day, but they are never molested nor
subjected to any disturbance calculated
to brighten them. On one day he saw
a total of Is, 10 being seen in one
herd. as they came into the open near
his camp. Mr.. Brooks is an authority
on firearms, controls patents on various
mechanical devices in connection
Herewith. and is now perfecting other
notable inventions. His health has
been better than for some years anu
he thoroughly enjoys the invigoratnS
atmosphere of the Maine woods.

The Open Air Concert.

The open air concert which was given
on the common, Thursday evening. by
the Olympia Band of Augusta, was an
affair that was greatly appreciated by
a large number of Gardiner people as
well as many from Hallowell and Au-
gusta. This concert was an unlocked
for enjoyment, as it was supposed that
another season would go by as they
have for several years past with no
evening concert for the public. The
program as published in Thursdays
journal was played in the bands usual
pleasing way and was n musical treat
Tor which the listeners were grateful.
The band has the satisfaction Of CIV
ing to Gardiner people an evening OF
enjoyment of high order and their
Kindness is surely appreciated. The
services of the band We're uncompen-
stated and the friendly feeling shown
will add to the bands already enviable
reputation. The notice in Thursdays
paper stated Monument park as the
place of the concert and many inquiries
We're made to the reporter as to its To-
cation. 1t was perhaps an unfamiliar
name, but as that park is the only one
IN the city much imagination was not
required to place it.
