REP. STATE CONVENTION
Will Be in Auditorium Instead of City
Hall-PIenty of Music.

When political convention in Maine
assumes such proportions that it cannot
be sccommod tied in Bangor city ball,
then 1t is a convention worth talking
about. That's the way with ths repubIl-
can State convention, which has long been
announced to take place In the ely hall
on June 20.
1t will be too big for the hall, and so
Chlirnsn Simpson, of the State commit
tee, hrs decided tbet tn gathering must
be held IN the Auditorium.
Tne convention 10 entitled 10 1,2s--i Geie-
gates, and with these will come such
hosts OF enthusiasts In support OF the sew
eral candidates that IL all were to be
crowded into the city hall the brick walls
would bulge out and the golden eagle
would scream In alarm from his perch on
the tall tower.
And then, where would the Bangor
people come in-or get in? Impossible,
and so to the Auditorium the convention
goes.
There will be plenty of music on this
occasion, aside from the plain anu vigor-
ous chant of the political choir.
1t will be furnished by three handsome
from Rockand, playing inspiring Cobb
airs, one from the western part of the
State with Prescott harmonies IL its roper
toire, and the Bangor band, which will
give the crowd the best of everything.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
A GENUINE COON SHOW.

A GENUINE COON SHOW.
June 10 will see genuine coon show at
Hancock hall, by company OF twenty
male aud female artists, and judging from
the favorable notices received from the
press In all the large cities OF New Eng
land the company is an unusually strong
one. Burns and Charcoal, known as
Booker T. Washington's best hand',
are scoring heavily in an up to- date rag
time act. They introduce new song by
the author of ANY Rsgs"-"'By the Wat
ermelin Vine"-that is said to be decidedly
catchy. Another iavorite with the COM
pany is Miss Gladys Demsrco, the south
ern nightingale, whose rendition OF popu-
lar ballads is meeting with much favor.
All OF the members of this company con-
tribute bis or her share to an evening" g
entertainment that is hard to equal, and
very seldom seen on the local stage.

PENSION LIST SHRINKING.
For the Nation-Northwest Shows In
crease in Number.

The annual report of Pension Com
missioner Ware shows that the gov
eminent has dealt literally with pen
sion claimants in the northwest dur
ing the past year. as evidenced by a
large increase in the number of pen
sions and in the amounts of money
paid. In Oregon where there were
6177 pensioners in 1908. drawing pen
sions aggregating $77S,773, there were
during last year 1867 pensioners, to
whom the government paid $96S,92S.
Washington shows an increase from
SO67 pensioners drawing $1,022,161 in
1908. to S773 pensioners drawing ST.
1863 in 1904.
In Idaho there has been an increase
from 1902 pensioners drawing $242,-
$40 in 1903. to 1949 pensioners draw
ing 1867, 007 in 1904.
The increase in the number of pen
sioners in the northwestern states is
stated to be largely due to the al
lowance of a large number of Indian
war pension claims and claims of sol
diers or relatives of those who served
in the Spanish war.
The report shows that during the
year the cost of maintaining the pen
sion system of the government has
been $144,741,7S7. The appropriation
for this purpose was s146.461 ,296, leav-
ing an unexpected balance of s1,706,-
500. During the year 47,374 persons
were added to and 49,157 dropped from
the pension list.

HILL RsTlREs FROM POLITICS.
David B. Names Jan. Next as the
Date for Vacation.

Albany, N. Y, Aug. 31.-David B.
Hill. in conversation with friends here
announced that he intends to retire
from politics January / next, and
that, no matter what the result of the
coming campaign may be in the state
or nation, he will relinquish the lead
ership of the democratic party in new
York. He added that in the event of
democratic success this fall he woui-.
not accept any position under the ma
tional or state democratic administra-
ton or again become a candidate for
election to any office whatever.
Former Senator Hill made these
statements on the eve of his birthday
anniversary. He was born August 20,
1843.
In partial explanation he said that
he had intended to take such action a
year ago today, but was persuaded by
some close personal friends to defer
doing so until after the presidential
election.
Having been engaged in active poll
tics since his youth, and having served
as city attorney, alderman and mayor
of Elmira, member of the legislature,
lieutenant governor, governor for sew
en- years and United States senator for
six years. he feels that he has been
sufficiently honored by his party, and
that he has rendered political service
during the period of years sufficient
to entitle him to be relieved of fur
Their active political effort.
He desires to devote more time to
his personal affairs and professional
duties.
Mr.. Hill will continue his work in
friends said that he would always
maintain his interest in democratic
success, but only as a private citizen.

JEFFRIES STILL CHAMPION.
Monroe Not in ia Very Poor Elk
cuSe.

Monroe Not in lt-A Very Poor Elk
cuse.
San Francisco.-Like the veriest
amateur in the prize ring, Jack Mum
roe of Butte, Mont, went down and
out before Champion James J. Jeffries
Friday night in the second round. The
man from the mining district made
such an extremely sorry showing that
the great throng in Mechanics pavil-
ion roundly hooted him as he protest
ed to Referee Graney against the de-
cisiOn that had been given in favor
of the champion. The two giants had
not been in the ring two minutes when
it was foreseen that the aspirations of
Munroe would be quickly disposed of.
The gross receipts of the Jeffries-
Monroe fight were $21, 800, of which
Jeffries received $9,156 and Munroe
$6.104, the remainder going to the
promoters of the contest.
All who witnessed the one sided en-
counter agree that the champion is
in class by himself, and that no other
living pugilist is likely to dispute his
right to the title. Throughout the
round and As seconds that the fight
lasted Jeffries showed gum and smil-
ed. He was perfectly calm and en-
tirely at his ease.
Munroe was pale, and evidently ner-
vous. Never for a moment did he
stand the slightest chance to win, but
he was game and determined to fight
to the end. Had not Referee Graney
interceded as Jeffries was preparing
to land the decisive blow the bout
might have ended in a tragedy.
Munroe finds consolation in the be-
lief that he went as far with Jeffries
as anyone could
The champion anticipated a severe
battle, and expressed himself as sur
prised that his opponent made so poor
"a showing. While disappointed at the
brevity of the fight, which some paid
$40 to see. sporting men admit that
it was a genuine battle for supremacy
and that the best man won.

CAR TO EDUCATE WARRIORS.
Gives Money to Found One Hundred

An imperial decree has been publish
ed directing that in commemoration

money shall be assigned from the i'm
perial privy purse, sufficient to found
100 scholarships. These are to be di-
vided equally between naval and mil
itary educational establishments The
scholarships are to be named after
the emperor and empress and award
ed to children of deserving soldiers
and sailors killed or wounded in the
war
The decree also directs that the ad-
ministration of the imperial estates
shall devote the annual interest ac-
cruing from the sum of 100000 for
the support, in the name of the whole
imperial family. of families of soldiers
and sailors-the money to be used

NO MEDIATION AT PRESENT.
A Big Russian Victory is the Only
Chance.

1t is learned in connection with the
revival of rumors of mediation that
Emperor Nicholas only recently an
nounced in the most positive terms
that he would not permit peace nego-
tiations even should Port Arthur fall
and General Kuropatkin be driven
back to Hardin. This fact, well un-
derstood in official circles. has pre-
vented the British government from
taking any steps in the direction of
mediation. 1t is known here that Ger
many understands this attitude of the
emperor as well as Great Britain and
other powers. Therefore the report
from Paris that Emperor William is
prepared to suggest peace is dismiss
ed as groundless, for the present at
least. If General Kuropatkin, how
ever should win a decisive victory at
Liaoyang, which, in a measure, would
retsore Russian prestige. it is believed
here that the restoration of peace
would be materially facilitated.

STEAM TURBINE A SUCCESS.
Naval Engineers Pleased With Exam
ination of Device.

board of naval engineering ex-
perts has just completed a thorough
examination of the Turbina, one of
the latest developments of the steam
turbine as applied to vessels. The re
suits of the inspection will be made
known in detail in a report on the
subject of turbine power which the
board will prepare, but it may be said
the performance of the turbine was re-
garded as highly satisfactory, in the
complete absence of vibration and in
the comfort of the crew Further
more, almost no more repairs are nee
essary to the engines, there being no
friction except in a few bearings.
There is no pounding and thudding
of engines, nothing but a soft rush
of steam through the pipes, so that
noise is suppressed, a valuable con-
sideration in naval combats. The en-
CINE room force is largely reduced.
Additional coal carrying capacity is
gained by the reduction of the weight
of the engines, and the center of grav-
ity is lowered through the motors be-
ing placed just above the keel. Now
that a practicable reversing device
has been found and installed in this
boat. the naval engineers are prepar-
ed to press forward the completion of
their plans for the installation of the
new turbines on their engines.
The Turbina was built in England,
and was originally intended for coast
ing, but she crossed the Atlantic UNI
der her own steam and without stop
ping.
