Memorial Sunday, May 18th, will be
observed by Stephen Davis Post, G. A. r.,
by attending special services at the Metho-

'Eyangeline," which has been in antcipa-

talent two evenings last week to large and
appreciative audiences

Arbor Day was observed by setting out
trees from the forest, or fruit trees, vines

in all the details. He came early at
the funeral of the late Amos ). Cum
mings, held in the hall of the House,
and sat among the distinguished people
present, being entitled to the privileges
of the floor by reason OF his former
membership in the House. There has
been hardly any perceptible decline in
his physical and mental activity IN the
last four or five years, during every
winter of which he has been frequent
visitor at the sessions of the House.
Ex-Gov. Burleigh was one of the
first members of the House to meet the
Commissioner Of Pensions, Mr. Eugene
F. Ware of Topeka, Kansas, who has
been here for few days to assume his
Office The governor has SO much work
before the bureau for the old soldiers
of the third district, all Of which takes
him almost daily to the bureau in pres
sing the claims of veterans, that he was
rather DESTROYS of making the acquain-
lance of Mr.. Ware But there was
another good reason for their becoming
acquainted as several of Mr.. Wares
kinsfolk live in the third Congressional
district of Maine There will be wide
interest in the policy which Mr.. Ware
follows in the pension bureau. The ma
tional encampment of the Grand Army
of the Republic meets here next Octo-
Der, and the verdict on his management
of this large bureau will very likely be
outspoken one way or another before
the encampmeut is at an end.

Newspaper Notes.

The Leader and Farm Journal newspaper
and job printing plant at Fort Fairfield has
been sold by L. H. Ellis Il Co. to c. c..
Harvey, who took possession May 10th.
The name of the paper will be changed and
extensive additions and improvements made
to the plant. Mr.. Harvey was at one time
publisher of The Beacon, Fort Fairfield,
and for shorter period editor of the ARGOS

We read with regret in the May Sth issue
of the Lincoln County News the valedictory
Uf Samuel l.. Miller, for twenty-five years
the editor and publisher and Tor the past
five years the editor and business manager.
To his readers he says: Il assure you |
surrender my position with much reluct-
ance, if not with sorrow. The News was IL
creation of my own and | have carried it
along SO many years that it appears to be
part of myself which | cannot lightly aban-
don" We are glad to know that his pen is
not to be idle, and that he will continue in a
field in which he has done much good work
He says:
Looking back over the years recall many
events which have been recorded in the
columns of the News with much pleasure,
and alas many which have been attended
with SORROW both to writer and reader. |

passage. But whatever way you make
the ascent you will be amply repaid by
the enchanting view from the summit.
The descent is by different route, and
you pass through Happy Valley, where
there is a noted spring, places for re-
freshment of man and beast, shooting
galleries, etc. Then our route took us
mainly through the residence section
of Hot Springs, and it was suggestive
that the two finest houses pointed out
were owned by physicians. OF one of
them it was said that the doctor came
to Hot Springs only six years ago with

great sanitarium, and people come here
to be cured of all kinds of ailments. so
