NEWS OF THE ORANGES.

The Eastern Star Grange hall, Hampden'
was burned about a. m. Wednesday, Sept.
10th, cause unknown. 1t was situated in
the southwest part Of the town, and was
rather historic, as the Eastern Star was the
first Grange organized in this State. 1t was
insured in the Grange company.
Work on the new Grange hall in Centre
Lincolnville is progressing rapidly and it is
expected that the building will be COM
pleted so it may be dedicated about the
middle of October. The building is two
stories in height, with a basement, 50 by 40
feet. The Grange will be on the second
floor, and, with the ante rooms, will occupy
the whole of it. There is spacious stage
for dramatic entertainments and a gallery
occupies the space over the ante rooms. On
the first floor is the dining room, cook room
and store rooms. The basement may also
be used for storage purposes. Work has
begun on new stable, so that all who at
tend the meetings may have free stabling.
The buildings are owned by Tranquility
Grange, which is in fourishing condition
with about 80 members.

hard, and to belittle the victory of Re-
lance are resorting to the grossest mis-
representations For example, writer
in Vanity Fair says that he predicted
after the first race that the only chance
for the Shamrock was i'll gale; and
when a strong breeze did come ''the
Americans cried off, and so long as they
have the power to outbuild, outma-
noeuvre, cry off when they are beaten
and decline to race when the weather
is unsuitable to their boat, it requires
something more than a sportsman and
bit of fool to tackle them" Now
everybody who followed the reports of
the races knows that Sir Thomas very
decidedly objected to risking his boat
and the lives of his crew on the day in
question. Had he said sail, the Reliance
would have been ready, and she had
proved herself a better boat in heavy
weather than the Shamrock. Indeed,
it was demonstrated beyond doubt
that she was superior to the Shamrock
in every point. and the chagrin of her
English hackers is therefore not to be
wondered at. But that is no excuse
for such Misrepresentation as quoted
above, and others of like character,
which are a disgrace to those who call
themselves spOrtsmen.
