Letter to Charles +. Jones.
SkOWhegan Me.

Dear sir; ut costs as much to put-on
poor paint as good common saying
and true--it costs much more 10 put-on
poor paint; more gallons.
Poor paint is paint and barytes or paint
and sand or paint and liue or paint and
chalk or paint and benzine OF paint and
water; these are the usual cheats; there
are others
1t takes more gallons of paint and-a-
cheat than of honest paint; and the cost
of the labor of painting is 80 much gal
lon-one gallon costs as much as another,
for labor.
This is the way to reckon your costs for
this year; but how about next year?
Paint Devoe, and next year costs moth
ing; year after next the same; the same
for several years.
Paint anything else, and your costs
recur according to what you paint with.
Some of the mixtures wear one year
some two; some three.
1t costs twice, three times, four times,
five times, as much to paint with a cheat
as to paint with Devoe.
Yours truly
+. W. DEvOE & 60.
P. 3. Henry Rawles sells our paint.

The Camel aA a soldier.

The camel Is a good soldier, says d
London writer. Il may be stupidity.
and It may be bravery, but q camel Is
as steady under FIRE as tower. The
Persnns mounted small cannon on the
backs OF their camels and called them
zambwahs. or little wasps." This
fashion was adopted In India, and aft
er the battle OF Sobraon 1000 OF these
artillery camels were captured. In the
Indian mutiny the British had a cam
ell corps Of loo beasts. and on the back
of each camel sat n Scotch highlander
In his kilt In lS45 Sir Charles Napier
had camel corps in S.ndh, and in one
day be marched seyenty-tive miles,
defeated Il brigand chief and marched
home again. In 1873 the British used
camels against the Afghans. and the
government paid for 10000 caDels that
died in those campaigns Many OF
these were driven TO death 10y Their
owners In order that they might claim
the government bounty.

The War.

On Aug. 20 the fort on Liaoti noun
tain was fred on from six Japanese tor
pedo boats, but the result of this action
has not been made known. The Rus
sian marines had left the ships in the
harbor and are working at the land bat
terios Shells from the Japanese fire
continued to fall in Port Arthur and the
dock yards and the warships were scat
tered about the harbor in attempts to
protect themselves from the enemy's
projectiles.
The Japanese lost 1000 men killed or
wounded at the Anping.
The Russian Losses are said to have
been heavy.
The japanese captured eight guns at
Anping and eight at Anshanshan.
The great battle of Lao Yang, which
began early Tuesday morning, ragged
throughout the day with increasing in.
tensity. The Japanese forces engaged
in this battle are believed to number
about 2O0,0 men. General EUROPA
tkin is known to have sixty army corps,
besides lat squadrons of cavalry in
which great confidence is reposed,
bringing up the Russian total to about
the same number that the Japanese
have.
The largest armies of the war are
facing each other In the vicinity of
Liaoyang, Manchuria, estimated at
$50, 600 Japanese and 200. 900 Russians.
A terrible battle is raging between these
immense forces of nearly half million
men and 1900 guns. Losses are very
heavy on both sides. Fighting con-
tinued through Tuesday and Wednes-
day. 1t is terrible struggle.
At Port Arthur the attacks of Japa-
nese upon the various orts continue.
They seem to be drawing the lines
closer around the doomed garrison.

Hon. Oscar F. Fellows, who was
speaker Of the House of Representatives
In the winter session of 1903, makes a
good point against Hon. Cyrus W. Davis,
who was also a member OF that house
and the Democratic leader, as follows:
"He voted for every item In the ap-
preparation bill of 1907 said Speaker
Fellows. "including the appropriation
of S15, 900 for Colby college and the In
creased salaries for the supreme judges.
The fee system which he so severely
condemns, and which the Republican
party pledges itself to remedy, did not
have any very active opposition upon
the part Of Mr.. Davis, who voted against
regulating the fees of two of the States
most important officers-the attorney
general and the secretary Of state. 10
fact, Mr.. Davis whole attempt at re-
formation seemed to hinge upon his
hobby, resubmission. He was member
OF the committee on salaries, and not
only failed to vote against any increase,
but signed the report"

Death by Drowning.

The overturnlng OF two boats at Hay
den Lake, Madison, Saturday last,
caused the death Of three persons, all
residents of our town: Thomas Wey.
mouth, 30 years OF age and married !;
Charles Newell, 30 years old, married
and survived by two children Napoleon
Provost, SO years old, married aud sur
yiyed by five children, the eldest OF
whom Ia Il years old. The first two
mentioned were weavers in the Marston
mile, and Provost was an employe of
the American Wooden Co.
The two accidents occurred within a
radius Of four rods, and probably not
many hours apart, but only In one case
are the details known. Joseph E. Boil
gier, the only survivor, tells the story OF
Provost's death but knew nothing of the
circumstances surrounding the drowning
of Weymouth and Newell.
Bolgier says that he and Provost left
here, Saturday afternoon, on a fishing
trip to Hayden Lake. Arriving at tn,
lake they went out in boat. After
they had been fishing for some hour!
Provost stood up in the boat to put OF
his coat, losing his balance and falling
overheard, capsizing the boat. Hi'
arms were bound by the coat, which wal
only partially on, and he WAS therefore
unable to save himself. Bolgier clune
to the overturned boat and after a TINT
his cries were hesrd by John c. Griffln
whose cottage is nearly half mile from
the scene. This gentleman with hii
young son, Herbert, started with theil
boat to investigate and succeeded
In rescuing Bolgier and took him across
the lake to John Dore's hotel, arriving
there shortly after o'clock, where h,
reeited the story of the accident, being
naturally at the time In much excited
, condition.
Owing to the lateness of the hour NJ
action was taken until Sunday morning
| towards the recovery of the body, a
which time John Dore and his sol
William, with grappes repaired to thu
scene, and succeeded in finding the body
within brief time near the overturned
boat.

The North Arson Campmeeting
Aug, ll,l904.


The Methodist campmeeting which
has just been held at North Auson has
been very successful one. The reason
for this success has been good weather,
good attendance, good speaking, good
religious services, good order and enter
tainment of guests and friends on the
grounds. The good order maintained
on sunday was credit to the large
crowd, two thousand strong, who were
present. A more orderly crowd w3
never on the grounds.
At the business meetings of the asso-
citation some notable business was tram
sacted. Next year Sunday of camp
meeting week will be devoted to tenn per
ance and the great missionary cause.
Important resolutions were passed
against resubmission and in favor OF the
reelection of Sheriff Lang w. Fl.
Mckinney, who has been an efficient
director for fifteen years resigned and
and Walter c. Mckinney was elected in
his place, Z c. Taylor was elected 30
cretary Rev. z. H. Boynton was invit.
ed to direct next years campmeeting.
The religious interest was good. The
inspiring sermons, the efficient leader
ship of Mr.. Boynton and the hearty
singing OF the choir was an inspiration
to all. There were some conversions
and helpful Influence exerted on all.

The Democracy take pleasure In rep
resenting President Roosevelt to be it,
elined to war but Judging from his pub
lie utterances the contrary appears to be
the fact. AT Chattanooga, Tenn, Sept.
3 1902, he said: 1.-THE period of war is
out fractional part Of the life of our
Republic, and l earnestly hope and be-
IleVe that 1t will be an even smaller part
IN the future than 1t has In the past"
Ihs hardly indicates blood thirsty
disposition, such as has been attributed
10 President Roosevelt by his enemies.

1t was upon this trip to the scene that
the first intimation OF the other accident
was discovered. A second boat was
found bottom side up and anchored, and
floating near 1t was fish basket contain
ing paper bag marked "Newell' in
which was lunch. A life preserver
WAS taken from the steamer and anchor
ed to mark the spot, and the boat was
towed In and word sent out to find II
any party by that name WAS missing. 1t
was learned upon investigation that Mr..
Newell had left his home In Skowheean
to 60 to the Lake on fishing trip the
afternoon previous and had not returned.
Upon receiving this information investi-
CATION proved that Mr.. Newell and his
friend Weymouth had a boat and went
out on the pond, early Saturday after
noon.
Again were the services of Mr.. Dore
solicited and with other willing hands
the scene of the accident was again visit
ed, and hours spent In graphing for the
bodies with the result that both were
recovered.
All the bodies were brought to Skow-
hogan during the day, after having been
viewed by Coroner Addition, who DEEM
ed an inquest unnecessary, and they
were given over to the hands of their
Borrowing families.

But two of the local hardware
houses do a jobbing business, but
each of these, the McGaushy Hard
ware company, and the Fox Bro s
Hardware company, report a tine
yearly business from merchants out
side the city. To the list of hard
ware jobbers might be added the
Fox-Harris Machine company, which
does a good outside business. The
hardware business in Pine Bluff has
byan growing rapidly during the past
year, and each of the wholesale
houses has found il necessary to
#moye into larger quarters in order 70
have room for their goods. The new
building that IS being erected for
the McGaushy Hardware company on
Main street is three stories high and
will prove a credit to the city. Both
these houses expect to increase their
trade during the coming year, and it
may be that other houses will branch
out into the Wholesale business in
1905.
