creatures that crawl and tumble over
the rocks made smooth and slippery
by ages of travel over them by
generations of seals. The later trips
Of the mother seal are longer as the
the islands, where there are SO many
thousands to be fed on fish, and her
necessities take her hundred or more
miles from the islands. It is when the
females are on these excursions for
food that the seal poachers reap their
harvest. While the seal fishers Of
other nations can not come upon the
islands and take the seals there, they
can hover around outside the three
mile limit and catch the females in
large numbers. The death OF the fe-
male means also the death of her pup
on the island. as there. are no nurses In
fur sealdom and no seal mother will
minister to the hunger of any seal
baby but her. own. The seals caught
at sea during the summer are almost
all females because the mated males
never leave the rookeries from the
time they arrive in the early part Of
June till they depart In September:
These old MOrmons of the sea are ex-
ceedingly jealous lords and Will not
leave their rocky reserves till the time
comes for the whole seal tribe to de-
part for warmer chimes. Talk about
the fast cure-these old fellows, who
arrive fat and sleek in the beginning Of
the season, do not get a mouthful to
eat during their ii, summer long
residence on. the islands and depart in

LARGE CROWD
GREETED MARSTON
SCHOONER CAME DOWN IN FAIR
TIME FROM SAN FRANCISCO
BROUGHT JAMES ROBERTSON.

Any stranger who happened to be on
the water front yesterday afternoon
about an hour after business hours
would have thought that a passenger
liner was coming into the Irmgard slip
there was such a big crowd on that
wharf waiting the arrival of some ves-
sci. The cause of the unusually large
crowd was the arrival of the schooner
w. H. Marston from San Francisco
with Jimmy" Robertson aboard. Mr.
Robertson returned on the Marston af-
ter a vacation in San Francisco. He
returned greatly pleased with his trip
for it has been the first time he had
been in San Francisco i'm thirty years
His health was greatly improved by the
vacation. Other passengers on the YES
sci were Mr.. and Mrs. Barton. Mr.
Barton comes to accept the position of
organist at the Catholic mission

While the others were for the vessel and

uneventful except for an exciting
struggle with a mysterious sea monster
that fought and struggle against being
hooked, and finally had to be cut adrift.

MAUNA ALA WENT
DOWN IN QU|CKSAND
IS SWALLOWED UP BODILY BY
THE TOPOLOBAMPO BAR-ONLY
HER MAsTc SHOW NOW.

! SAN FRANCISCO, September s.
Twelve men of the crew of the wrecked
bark Mauna Ala were brought to this
port Wednesday night by the steamer
Curacao from the coast of Mexico. The
Mauna Ala, as had been briefly report
ed, went ashore at Topolobampo on
July q. Members of the crew say that
she was in tow of the steamer Luella
when she first struck on the Topolo-
bampo bar, and parting of the hawser
caused her to strike again, this time
with such force that the bark became
hard and fast. Repeated attempts of
the steamer to get her into deep water
proved unavailing, and the Mauna Ala
slowly sank in the quicksand. Captain
Smith, his wife and the members of the
crew landed the second day after the
vessel struck and made their home
ashore. They We're helpless to save the
bark, which disappeared in the soft
sand before their eyes, and when the
crew left Topolobampo two weeks ago
on the Luella for Mazatlan all but the
tops of the Mauna Alas masts had dis
appeared. Her cargo of lumber floated
ashore.
Captain Smith was sole owner of the
Mauna Ala, but at the time of his mar
riage few weeks ago, or just before
sailing from this Coast for Topolo-
bampo, he made his bride a wedding
present of a half-interest in the YES
sci. When the crew had to leave the
wreck. they took the vessels stores,
worth 5000 or $500, but the Mexican Off
Gals at Topolobampo refused to let
I them use them, demanding duty in the
sum of $1,000. Captain Smith, after
much difficulty and when the crew had
suffered much from hunger, succeeded
| in obtaining permission from the City
of Mexico for the free entry of the

WHAT is PAIN BALM?

Chamberlain's Pain Balm is a lini-
ment and, while adapted to all the or
binary uses of liniment, has qualities
which distinguish it from other rem
edies of this class. Pain Balm is espe-
cially beneficial Tor rheumatism. Thou
sands of cases can be cited in which
it has effected a cure when the sufferer
had previously tried the best medical
service without securing relief. Pain
Balm is positively guaranteed to give
relief in the most severe cases of chron-
ic or acute rheumatism.
Pain Balm heals bruises, burns and
scalds in less time than any other treat
ment. 1t is "antiseptic" that is, it pre-
vents putrefaction and by so doing,
generally prevents an unsightly scar
remaining after the injury is healed.
For lame back, lumbago and neuralgia,
Pain Balm has no equal. 1t has the
quality of getting to the right spot"
No sufferer from these distressing af-
fections should defer a trial of this
remedy. One application gives relief.

KOREA ARRIVES THIS MORNING
WITH MANY PEOPLE FOR HOMO
LULU AND ORIENTAL PORTS.

The S. S. Korea arrived on time early
this morning from San Francisco
crowded with passengers in all de-

morning. The Korea brought 80 pas
sengers for Honolulu The vessel

There are an unusually large number
of Chinese for the Orient, aboard. No
less than 264 Chinese are travelling in
the steerage. This is the largest num-
Der that has left San Francisco in
months. The officers of the Korea
account for the occurrence, from the
fact that the Korea is such steady
vessel that the ports in the steerage
can be kept open most of the time and
much better ventilation can be enjoyed
in that part of the Korea, than on
other vessels less steady, which roll.
and make it necessary to close the
ports.

People with weak digestions will al
ways be found to be fond of eondi-
ments. as the tendency of these things
is to stimulate the glands OF the stom-
ach and cause them to produce a larger
supply of digestive juices. Pepper,
mustard and other like spices stir up
the liver and are useful to people who
from necessity or other causes lead
sedentary lives. Vinegar dissolves the
cellulose in raw vegetables, and that Is
why 1t tastes so well with cabbages
and salads, for there is no better judge
than the palate of what is good for the
stomach. The oil is added because 1t
protects the stomach from the biting
acid.

A canny Scot lived in a small settle
ment some miles from the neighboring
town. The distance, however. could
be considerably lessened by cutting
through a large estate. This practice
was accordingly SO much resorted to
that the owner gave peremptory orders
for all trespassers to be turned around
and sent back the way they came.
One time, however, the Scot in ques
ton, having occasion TO take some artl-
cles to town in wheelbarrow, decided
to run the risk and was about half
way through when he saw the owner
in the distance. Not relishing- the idea
of retracing his steps, he bethousht
himself of a scheme, and, promptly
turning the wheelbarrow to face the
direction from which he came, he sat
down upon it as IL resting.
Soon the owner came up and, seeing
him there, roughly ordered him to turn
around and go back.
As back" was in this case his OBJ
jective point, the Scot obeyed and went
on his way rejoicing.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1903.
The Music Festival.

The seventh ann al Maine music fe,-
tival was held last week, the first three
days in Bangor, the last three in Port
land. Like its predecessors, it was a
pronounced success from a musical
point of view, and, from financial
point of view, it was, unlike some of
its predecessors, a financial success,
both in Bangor and Portland.
Year by year the festival idea is
taking a deeper and firmer hold upon
the people from one end of the State
to the other, and it's influence is grad
ually permeating its remotest corners.
Music, like other forms of art, is
largely an acquired taste, and every
movement that makes for the best
there is in the art deserves to be en-
couraged Better music is sung, and
1t is sung better in scores of churches
to-day than was the case before the
meteoric Chapman struck this phleg-
matte corner of the country. The
improvement-and there is chance for
twill continue, and it will not be
long before it will be observable else
where than in churches.
The public taste will be cultivated;
better concert music, vocal and in
strumental, will be in demand; the
value of music in the public schools
will be better appreciated, and while
the crests of the musical wave may
continue to be seen once year al
the fall festivals, it's general effect
will be felt everywhere through the
rest of the year.
This years. festival has emphasized
the contention that its success is moi
wholly dependent on a galaxy o
stars; il has demonstrated that aftel
all the backbone of the festival is the
chorus. So long as the chorus can bt
maintained, so long the festivals vii
continue. II there is any tagging il
loyalty on the part of this splendid
body, it is not visible to the nakeC
eye.
1t is devoutly to be hoped tina
the work SO auspiciously begun, bu
yet in its infancy, may continue unit
the Maine music festival becomes al
affair as certain as the assembling o
the legislature or the rising of the
sun.

There is every indication that Con-
gress will make an official investiga-
ton of the postoffice department.
President Roosevelt is said to favor
it, and to favor the appointment by
Congress of a special commission
which will make public investiga-
ton similar to that carried out by the
famous Lexow committee which made
such thorough exposure of the cor
ruption in the New York city govern
ment. Many republican members of
Congress believe that congressional
investigation would be good politi-
cal move, as they could thus antici-
pate the democrats, who are certain
to introduce such a measure IN case
the republicans do not. Representa-
tive Hemenway, of Indiana, who has
the confidence of Speaker to- be- Can
non, says: "My idea would be 10
have a resolution for AN investiga-
ton introduced at the proper time by
a republican member, and adopted by
the House. The inquiry can be rap
idly conducted, after the careful work
already accomplished by the depart
ment."
