Fire at East Buckspo rt.

Shortly after 10 o'clock Monday night,
the farm buildings OF Thomas G. Hewey
in East Bucksport were burned.
The fire destroyed Mr.. Hewey's fine res
idence, large barn and outbuildings, with
all the contents, including, besides the
household goods, ten cows, three horses,
four hogs, harnesses, carriages, farming
implements, etc.
Mr.. Hewey estimates his entire loss at
not less than $4,000, and policy in the
Grange company for $1,000 was the only
protection.
The house was much better than the
average farm house and the barn, said to
be the finest in Hancock county, was an
immense structure, said to cost $4,000
about seven years ago. 1t wea a model
farm building and quite a show place.
The fire is supposed to have originated
from spark from the pipe OF farm
hand.

The Sultan and the Beaus.


If the report can be believed the new
sultan of Zanzibar is fond of Boston
baked beans, but whether this indi-
Gates esthetic longings or merely a low
grade of simianlike imitation, it is i'm
possible at this distance to say. Prob
ably there are Boston scientists who
will study the developments of the
sultan's character as ruler, and it it
proves creditable we can rest assured
that the bean pot will receive full
credit.
The noble sultan of Zanzibar is call
ing again for his beans. His clamor is
echoing near and far with terrible
rumble and rumpus and jar, as back on
his throne he leans.
The noble sultan of Zanzibar is call
ing again for them hot. The silence of
night gets a terrible scar. His howl
rises up to a shuddering star and
down goes the entire lot!-Cleveland

OVER A MOUNTAIN RANGE.
Aerial Tramway Cor the TranspOrta-
tiOn of Tea In the Island
of CeylOn.

One of the most interesting aerial
rope ways has recently been con-
structed on the island of Ceylon,
British India, for the transportation
of tea, this up-to-uate system dis
pensing with the services of hundreds
Of men and beasts which were for
merely maintained and employed in
carrying the tea over the miles Of
mountainous country. The tramway.
which runs in almost direct line,
says the Philadelphia Record, is three
miles long; the road which was fol-
lowed by the flesh and blood carriers
was a much greater distance.
This three miles of tramway passes
over several ridges. one of which has
considerable elevation. The tea
leaves, in bags, are placed in the
great carriers, which are in the form
of hanging cage. as the latter pass
the driving terminal, by wire-rope
transmissions from turbine three
quarters of mile distant. The la
Dor required to work the entire line
need not exceed six men.
The tramway has been in use for
four months and has given the most
satisfactory service The delivery of
tue tea is performed quite as reliably
as heretofore and IS done in much
less time and much more cheaply.

MESSAGES IN MERCHANDISE.
Many Instances Are on Record.
Among Them Being Some of
TraEical Nature.

In regard to the story which has
been going the rounds of the English
papers lately as to Liverpool man
finding message written upon an egg
by the packer, widow in Manitoba.
whom he ultimately married, the Lon
don Chronicle remarks that many true
incidents of the same kind could be
related. In 1899 message was found
in barrel of apples that had come
from New Zealand In this message
the packer of the fruit, young wom-
an, stated that her ancestors, whose
names were given, came from Kent,
and she asked the finder to ascertain
if any of her name and family still
remained in the country. As stated in
the papers of the time, the finder was
able to give her full particulars as to
surviving relatives. But Mr.. Tew. OF
Leeds. member of Yorkshire bank
ing family, had at one time COL
lection of these messages in mer-
chandise," some of them being very
tragical. and being survival of the
days when peaceful traders were
caught by Algerian pirates and sold
into captivity and slavery. One such
message had been written in blood
on a coarse canvas bag that had con-
tanned gum arabic; another appeared
as sort of tattooed stain on large
cork that had fastened up a
vessel containing altar of roses.

FOR YOUNG HOUSEWIVES.
Some Small Items of Advice That May
BE Remembered to Their
Advantage.

Necessities should be selected be-
fore decorative articles of furniture.
1t is not wise, to provide too many
pots, kettles and pans when furnish
ing a kitchen.
It is always decidedly cheaper in
the end to buy only good carpets and
good furniture.
No matter how good the income q
small sum should be put aside regu-
larly for the proverbial rainy day.
A simple dinner well served is de-
cidedly more enjoyable than an elab-
crate dinner poorly served.
A practical knowledge of economy
of good cookery" will be absolutely
necessary for the young housewife,
no matter how much "help" she can
afford to keep.
All bills for marketing should be
paid weekly, or, better still, when the
articles are bought.
With care and economy a small
amount of money will do wonders.
1t is important to be systematic in
looking after the leftovers.
All cold vegetables and scraps of
meat may be used in soups and salads
and croquettes and many appetizing
ways to numerous to mention.

A DISAGREEABLE DISEASE.
One That Afiicts Many People In the
Home as Well as In Places
of Business.

There is no meaner disease of
mind or body than that of fault
finding or worry. 1t may have a
medical name; if so, we don't know
it, and if we did, it would do no
good, as there is no cure for the
pesky thing except death. Persons
afflicted with it are sure to let you
know they have it, and in less time
than it takes to tell, they have
made you and every one they come
in contact with miserable. The
weather, that furnishes such a
topic for SO many, is their peach
subject, and they thresh that over
until it is threadbare. They find
fault with everything. Their clerks
can never please them and their
customers call them Grabbed old
things" and finally 60 somewhere
else. They believe every one has it
in for them," and they enjoy no
peace of mind because always an
ticipating some evil thing that never
happens. If they ever get to heaven
they will find fault with everything
there. The only time they really
seem to enjoy life Is when they are
pouring their ills, real and imaginary.
into your ears, says Gold and Silver
smith.
The less people hear of the ills and
aches of others the better they like
it. Each one has enough of his own
to bear without other persons bur-
dens, and the little sunshine they
have they don't want clouded over
with these woes.
People admire the pluck of the man
who, when his body is racked with
pain, never lets sigh escape, or has
a complaint to offer at any of the
quibbles Of fortune, but in storm and
