Things of Present Importance,
portland Advertiser.)


Indeed there are many things of
vastly more Importance than the Maine
campaign Just now. There is the Jap
anesc- Russian war, for instance, and
the daily fall of Port Arthur. There is
the mystery about Judge Parker's polit-
zeal beliefs and the constantly growing
wonder whether Tammany is finally to
get it in the inside pocket or in the
neck. Speculation on the question as
to whether VIM. j. Bryan can keep his
face straight when he takes the stump
for Parker and Davis is also timely.
And If obliged to talk about Maine mat
tiers it would be vastly more amusing to
discuss the probability as to what DR..
Crockett, and Oliver Otis and Mike
O'Brien gre planning to do with the
choice collection of cutlery they have
had hidden in their sleeves since the
second district convention. The Senti-
mel must be getting near-sighted if it
cannot find anything but State politics
to talk about this hot weather.

Maine is enjoying one of the most de-
!ightful summers in the memory OF the
present generation. For two years past
the summers have been cold and more
or less disagreeable, but far different
has been the season of 1904. Maine peo-
pie, while enthusiastic over our UNI
equalled summer climate, are not SO
selfish but that they are willing to let
others from less favored localities share
in our unsurpassed attractions. Maine's
Iatchstrng is out and a cordial welcome
is extended to tourist, summer vaca-
zionist and pleasure seeker to visit the

Why Do They Take Rifles?

(BludefOrd JOufnaI.D
The killing of a man near Sherman
Mills. Saturday, suggests the old in
quiry: Why do fishermen who take an
outing in the Maine game regions per-
sist in taking along a rife? This man
was shot and killed because he was
mistaken for an animal. These fisher
men knew that there is no large game
in Maine that can be legally killed at
this season, except bears and members
of the cat family, and to kill them
would be wanton slaughter, for their
fur is of no value at this season. The
Inference is that the rifle was taken
along for the purpose of shooting deer
in violation of the game laws.

Habits of Men and Women Have
Greatly Changed in Recent Years.
Much more attention is now paid
to the liver than was formerly the.
case. The doctors in recent years
have traced many ills to drink and
have trained their patients to be alb
stemious. That is one of the causes
OF the decrease which has been re
ferred to- Another is that the high
spirited man, who was "nobodys en-.
emy but his own" who drank to keep
his spirits up. is no longer a favorite
On the contrary, he is avoided. The
increased habit of dining at restau-
rants has also acted as a check 1t

practical joking, the hearty style of
meeting which found expression in
violent slap upon the back. were not
only tolerated, but popular. All that
is discredited now.
On the other hand, there is much
more gambling to-day than there was,
though, so far as cards are concerned.
the stakes are considerably smaller.
Three estates lost in three nights is
an incident which this generation is
ignorant of. But almost everyone
occasionally CANDLES in stocks and
shares, and many make speculation
their chief object in life. Bridge has
become little less than a disease, espe-
cially among women. Many of the
latter spend most OF their afternoons
and evenings over the card table. At
the clubs, too, bridge often com
mences early in the afternoon. while
most of the gamblers in former days
only began playing in the late hours
of the evening.

Did Not Enjoy Play.

1t is a true story, but the names
have to be changed for domestic rea-

Harlem:

home until about midnight"
"All right" she answered. Not a
word of reproof or complaint. When
Mr.. Jones. who occupies the adjoining
fiat, and whose wife was from home,
came in, she met him in the hall, ac-
cidentally, and told him what a lonely
evening she was to have.
