The PRESIDENT

rheumatism.

Col. VIM. ]. Harvey, president of
Wilkesbarre's city council, who will long
be remembered for his great work for the
city, was once mere physical wreck,
torn in every muscle and nerve from the
frightful pains caused by rheumatism.
He consulted the best physicians, went
abroad, took mud baths, and almost
every known treatment for the disease.
Afriend had had a very similar experience
and DR.. David Kennedys Favorite Rem
edy had cured him, so he recommended
this great kidney medicine to Col. Harvey
and he is to-day we'll man, hale and
hearty. He writes straight to the point
DR.. DAVID KENNEDY,
Dear Sir This is to certify that
was permanently cured of rheuma-
tism by the use of DR.. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy.
Rheumatism is but another name for
uric acid poisoning which is caused pri-
n1arily by diseased kidneys. Cure your
kidneys and the rheumatism disappears.
For all diseases of the kidneys, liver,
bladder and blood, rheumatism, dyspep-

The Commercial and Financial World of
New York makes the following mention of
recent business change in that city in
which an Islesboro man comes to the front
The World says:
Mention may be made of the dissolution
of the cO-partnership heretofore existing
under the style of Stephen II. Mills Il Co.,
at No. II South street, as dealers in yacht
and engineers supplies, etc. This is a con-
Germ which dates back about half a century
and in which the partners have for long
time past been Mr.. Stephen II. Mills and
Mr. W. S. Fendleton, Jr.
Under date of January l, 1902, that CO.
partnership was dissolved by mutual con
sent, Mr.. Mills retiring, and on the same
day Mr.. w. S. Pendleton, Jr., formed a new
co-partnership with his cousin, Mr. r. D.
Pendleton and they are continuing the bust
ness the same as heretofore, under the style
of W. S. Pendleton, Jr., & Co.
Mr.. W. S. Pendleton, Jr., has been con-
nected with the house since 1899, and is one
of the best known and best posted men in
the business. The connections of the firm
are of a very important character and ex-
tend pretty nearly all over the Atlantic
coast. They are grOcers and ship chambers,
and dealers in cOrdage, wire rope, naval
stores, oils, cotton, tarred patent and seine
twines, fish hooks, leads, etc. They are
manufacturers of Mills mast compound
and agents for Jeffrey's marine glue No
concern in the business has better facilities
than they have, or is held in higher esteem
by the trade generally.

A Pauper Case, fremont VS.. Belfast.

The suit brought by the inhabitants of
fremont against the city of Belfast for
pauper supplies furnished Henry A. Dyer
in the winter 1S99-l9O0, went on trial in the
Supreme Court at Ellsworth Jan. Doth. The
town of Mt Desert is an interested party,
as defendants will try to show that Dyer's
pauper settlement was in that town. Mt.
Desert, therefore, has virtually joined is
sues with fremont against the city of Bel
fast. The Ellsworth American gives this
synopsis of the case
In 1867. Henry A. Dyer, then twenty
years of age, moved with his father to Bel
fast In 1868 he married there, and lived
in Belfast until about 1880 or 1882. From
then until 1886 his residence seems unset
tied, but in May of 1856 he came to Bart
lett's Island, and made it his home until, as
set up by plaintiff, the first of May, 1891,
when he married in fremont, and settled
there. This claim of plaintiffs would make
his term of settlement in Mt. Desert just a
few weeks under the five years necessary to
gain pauper settlement. Defendants will
attempt to show that as a matter of fact he
did gain pauper settlement in Mt Desert
Thirteen witnesses for the plaintiff were
sworn in, and Daniel l.. Pitcher, 76 wears a
resident of Belfast, and tax collector for
the years 81, '6S, 10, II, '72 and "a, was the
first called, and showed by his books that
in '6S Dyer paid poll tax and road tax
amounting to $500, and that in '72 he also
paid poll tax. Mrs. Mary II. Tibbetts of
Mt. Desert, a sister of Henry Dyer, proved
an important witness, testifying as to the
life of her brother, that he had lived in
Belfast until 'S4, ten years in all, eight of
which he kept house. Upon cross examina-
tion it was learned that in "a Dyer came to
Bartett's Island, to make his home
Mrs. Ada Bartlett of Northeast Harbor,
Lewis W. Gilley and Isaac Gilley followed
as witnesses for the plaintiff The former
stated that Dyer made his last visit to Bart
lett's Island in '91, while the latter claim
ed that in the spring of '91 he took Dyer
from Bartlett's Island to Bass Harbor,
where he was to take command of vessel,
and that the conversation on the trip was to
the effect that Dyer would not return to the
island.
Four witnesses were then sworn for the
defense, Henry A. Dyer being the first to
take the stand. He gave his age as "a years,
and his occupation as a seafaring man. His
testimony was repetition of what had
been proved, with the exception that he
denied the conversation with young Gilley !;
and that he had been on Bartlett'S Island
three times during the summer of 81. Also
that he went to the town clerk of fremont
TO publish his intentions of a second mar
1iage, giving as his answer as to whether he
was resident of the place, that he worked
in fremont
The case was sent to the jury Thursday
afternoon, and they returned a verdict for
the plaintiff. Belfast has moved for new
trial.

The Belfast Shoe Factory

To Start March 1st With "a Full Grew.
The work of re-arranging the Belfast shoe
factory was begun Monday morning and is
progressing rapidly with "a large crew. The
arrangement of the rooms is materially
changed. The Goodyear department is
taken out. The sole leather will be receiv-
ed cut in "blocks,'' instead of in the full
sides as before. This will reduce the help
in that department to about one-third the
former number and give room for other
work. The office will be reduced in size
more than one-half, and the space thus gain
ed taken into the factory. The cutting room
and stitching room will be on the upper
floor; the sole leather department in the
basement and the bottomng, finishing and
freeing on the second and ground tioors
The stock will thus progress from one de-
partment to the next without any unneces-
sary "loops.'' Mr.. Davis, who has been
connected with Leonard a. Barrows long
time, will be superintendent, and will have
Miss Carrie Gilmore as assistant in the
office. The work is temporarily in charge
of Frank 0. Smith, late foreman of the sole
leather room, who Will have charge OF the
bottoming, finishing and sole-leather rooms
Peter Olson is retained as foreman of the
cutting room, and G. S. Webber as engineer
E. f. Littlefeld of Middleboro, Mass, will
be foreman of the stitching room and H IRAN
Michaels of the freeing. The firm has orders
for boys, youths and little gents shoes,
which will enable them to turn out from
$500 to 5000 pairs per day, and will give
employment to larger crew than has ever
before been employed in the factory. 1t is
thought that all former employees will be
able to get work, as those whose depart
ments are taken out or changed can easily
adapt themselves to other classes of work.
AS orders are rushing the proprietors wish
to start as soon as possible, and expect to
have the factory running with full crew
by March 1st, or two weeks earlier then was
at first planned.

THE RIALTO DRAMATIC CLUB.

Successful Mid-Winter Tour of This Com.
pany of Belfast Amateurs.
Last week the Rialto Dramatic Club of
Belfast presented the play ga Daughters
Devotion in Fairfield, Skowhegan, Pitts
field and Hartland before large and appre-
cative audiences. Of the presentation in
Fairfield the Waterville Evening Mail says:
More than usual interest was centered in
the company from the fact that two of the
members are former Fairfield people, c. II.
was highly applauded, and complimented
on all sides on the clever manner in which
he performed the most difficult part of the
play. Madeline Neal Lord, who took the
part OF France, won warm place in the
hearts of her audience from the first. The
remainder of the cast is made up from a
company of picked amateurs, but the pro-
duction was certainly as good as many pro-
fessional troups which visit this town.
The Mail also commends the speciaties,
and says the audience was generous with
their applause throughout the evening. The
Waterville Sentinel says:
The play was admirably staged. Made
line Neal Lord as France pleased everyone
with her wit and yet awakened a strain of
sympathy with her pathoS. Z. H. Maxfeld,
who took the part Of the tramp, played his
part to perfection. The remaining members
of the cast all took their parts finely. The
specialties were very novel and interesting
and included illustrated songs by C. G.
Dickey, acrobatic buck and wing dancing by
Tommy Davis, banjo playing by w. NJ.
Burkett, and fancy cake walking by the
Misses Lord and Maxtield. The Opera
house echoed and re-echoed with applause
throughout the evening.
The Fairfield correspondent of the Ken
nebec Journal writes in similar strain, and
says: sc. II. Maxteld, who took the part of
the tramp, played his part to perfection.
Charles has many friends here, being
former Fairfield boy. We are always glad
to see him, but we think none would have
recognized him, Tuesday evening"
The Fairfield journal Of Feb 18th says:
The part of France was taken by Made
cline Neal Lord, who very cleverly portray
ed the character Charles IL. Maxtield, a
former resident OF Fairfield, appeared as
Jerry, the father of the heroine. Mr.. Max
field delineated this character in manner
commanding the good will and closest at
tention of the audience. He was versatile
in both action and expression, and his sue
