BELFAsT IMPROVEMENT SOCIETY,

The Improvement Society held an enthu-
siastic and well-attended meeting JAM 5th
at the home of Miss Maud E. Barker After
the, routine business plans for work were
discussed, and it was the unanimous opin-
ion. that the outlook for the coming season
is very bright
The Society will expand its work in vari-
GUS WAYS. More attention will be given to
forestry, as the committee having charge of
this department in the past have been
greatly hindered in the execution of plans.
The beautfying of the school grounds is
another proposition, and the Society hope,
by making the pupils feel that they have
proprietary interest in this improvement,
to make it success. 1t is hoped, too, that,
directly or indirectly, the Society may soon
be able to carry out long cherished plans of
Transforming what has been an ugly spot
in our fair city, the vacant lot in Custom
House square, into something useful and
ornamental 1t was voted to appropriate
$50 toward the support of the Belfast Band
the coming year.
An extended account of what the ''Out-
Door Art Club" of Mill Valley, California,
has accomplished was read, and the ladies
received much encouragement and inspira-
ton therefrom. 1t is proposed to follow
along some of the same lines of work.
1t was voted to call general meeting of
a social nature at an early date for the pur-
pose of arousing greater interest, and to
make an urgent appeal through the columns
of The journal to every publc-splrlted
During the three years of its existence the
Belfast Improvement Society has been
highly successful in many of its undertak-
ings, as the beautiful pictures in our
schools, the convenience of city water in
our cemetery, the neat band stand on our
common, the carefully kept grass plots at
the junction of our streets, the building of
the much needed gravel walk on Northport
avenue, the ringing of the curfeW, the
planting of ivy around our school houses,
and many other improvements testify. We
have not, however, accomplished all that we
desired, and we are aware that we have
been severely criticized by few. DR..
Oliver Wendell Holmes said, and in truth,
1.-THE human race is divided into two
classes those who 60 ahead and do some
thing, and those who sit still and inquire,
'Why wasn't it done the other way?'
Perhaps some plans were not practicable,
and failure and disappointment were the
result, yet the wisest err sometimes IN
judgment. We have done much for the

in doing so exposed his roll of money.
About half past three this morning
they started for the Depot Hotel

scarcely able to walk they lost their
bearings and were sitting down near
the railroad, when two white men SO
the injured man says, came up and
said hello, at the same time striking
him with a rock cutting a cash in his
head. This frightened him into sobri-

run. He was struck again and knock

him taking his purse with what money
he had left. His partner was so drunk
that it did not arouse him and when
the police arrived he was fuond in a
stupetied condition and taken to Jail.
The injured man is not seriously hurt
but was so scared that he does not re-

who robbed him.

HIS LAST
ROLL CALL

The ranks of the old veterans are
thinning out very rapidly. Another
one has answered his last roll call and
today Joined the great majority, being
old and came to Prescott in 1875 with
Co. X, twelfth infantry, U. S. A.,
having served all through the civil
war, having resided here ever since.
He retired from business about five or
six years ago and has been quite feeble
ever since although he was able to be
around and was cheerful and good
spirited. He officiated ON Saturday
as clerk of the election for the high
school and was around town yesterday
in his usual good health, joking with
friends.
He lived with his son Fred W. Jes-
sen on Granite street just north of
Gurley and remained about the house
most of his time. He was at home as
usual this morning and a painter
named Robinson was engaged in paint
ing the house. About 9 o'clock the
after went into the house to hang up
his coat and discovered Mr.. lessen
lying unconscious in pool of blood,
with blood pouring from his mouth,
ears and nose. He Immediately notifi-
ed the son Fred, who drives a wagon
for II. Voge, and physician was sum-
moned but he was beyond human aid
and died about IL o'clock without

head had been ruptured, causing
death. The remains were taken to
Logan's undertaking parlors to be pre-
pared for burial
Deceased from his long residence in
Prescott had made great many
friends, who will be panied to hear OF
his demise. He was a good citizen in
every sense of the word, and during
his business career, was always pro-
gressive. and enterprising, taking a
natural pride in the progress of the
