CHARLES CALDWELL coU1L1ARD.

Charles Caldwell Couillard died at
his home in Waterville May Sd. Mr..
Couillard had been in feeble health for
many months with lung trouble and an
affection of the heart, but was confined
to the house less than month. Mr..
Coulllard was son of c. l.. and Clara
Buzzell Couillard. He was born in
Montvilie April IL, 1916. He prepared
for college at the Bangor high school
and entered Colby in 1862, where he re-
NAMED until his Junior year. He was
a member of the Zeta Psi fraternity.
In 1871 he married Florence q. Tuttle,
who survives him. Mr.. Couillard took
naturally to journalism and for many
years was one of the best known news
paper men in New England. From
1865 to 1872 he was assistant editor of
Portland Evening Star and Portland
Daily Advertiser. From Portland he
went to Boston and became assistant
editor and staff correspondent of the
Boston Herald, which position he occu-
pied for nine years. He then was made
editor of the Providence Evening and
Sunday Telegram, serving in that posi-
ton from 1892 to 1898, when he came
back to Portland somewhat broken in
health. He did newspaper work there
until the spring OF 1901, when ne &C
cepted a tempo ray position ." The
Evening Mail. In September OF
year Mr.. Couillard came to live in this
city, where they ow ned some property,
and shortly after that he accepted a
permanent position as city editor of
The Mail, where he remained until he
could work no longer. Mr.. Couillard
was a brilliant scholar and a great
reader, a deep student of men and at
fairs. He had wonderful memory
and could give more information con
corning more men, and more subjects
than any man that the writer has ever
known. Up to the hour of his death
his mind was as keen as ever. In his
later years he became little cynical
and was inclined to be sarcastic at
times, but at heart was one of the
klndest of men. His co-workers on
the Mail will miss him.-Waterville
Mail.

The Predetermined, the Blind, and Chill
dren without School Privileges.

In connection with the movement to
provide better care for the feeble
minded in Maine, a correspondent of a
Portland newspaper writes that he has
compiled the figures from the last CEN
sus and finds that there are total of
1881 Predetermined persons in this
State, divided by counties as follows:
Androscoggin, IS; Aroostook, IS; Cum
berland, 173: Franklin, So; Hancock,
115; Kennebec, IA; Knox, 80; Lincoln,
95; Oxford, 81; Peno bscot, 1863; Piscata-
quis, 40; SagadahOc, IS; Somerset, So;
Waldo, 100; Washington, 1913; York,
1876. These figures include only those
who are inmates of almshouses and
other public institutions.
The Bangor Commercial in an article
about the blind Of Maine says: Accord
ing to the plans already drawn, it is
proposed to erect at Portland large
building which may be utilized as
home for the blind people of Maine and
a place where they may be taught to
do things which will enable them to
make their own way in the world. For
this purpose a lot has already been
given at Brighton and Stevens avenues,

Three hundred lighthouse children,
who live along the coast of Maine will
have the chance to go to school if Mrs.
Esteile B. Stanley of Duck Island can
induce the next Maine legislature to
pass her bill to that effect, says an ex-
change. Mrs. Stanley is president of
''Work Among Light Stations depart
ment, which was established about two
years ago, and has since done good
work in bringing comfort and cheer to
the lonely dwellers in lighthouses. Mrs.
Stanley says there are nearly 5000
American-born children in the United
States who are shut out from the priv
ileges of the public schools simply
because they live off the mainland.
