Venezuelan affairs have dropped out
of sight but the arbitration tribunals
are still in session at Caracas. There
are eleven of these tribunals each deal
ing with the claims of the citizens
of one country and each composed of a
representative of that country, a re-
preventative of Venezuela and a dis
interested person. If Venezuela can
produce eleven disinterested persons it
is rather fortunate country. The
claims which amounted to 100000 900
will in all probability be cut down to
about $6,OOO,OOO.

Preparations for the opening Of what
is claimed will be the greatest worlds
exposition ever held are going on apace
at st. Louis. According to the Worlds
Fair Bulletin" eight of the large main
buildings of the exposition were prac-
tically completed on December 81, the
construction finished in each case rang
ing in the neighborhood of 991a per cent.
These include the buildings devoted to
education, electricity, machinery, agri-
culture, varied industries, liberal arts
and fine arts. The manufactures build
ing is 81 per cent completed, those of
horticulture and mining SO per cent, and
the transportation building is within 4
per cent of completion. Numerous
small buildings are also well advanced.
Among the state buildings, those of
Louisiana, Oklahoma, Arizona, Con-
necticut and Nevada are completed,
while those of Kansas, Iowa, Missouri

of finishing. OF the foreign buildings,
Mexico's building is completed, that of
France is IS per cent done, and Eng
lands is 92 per cent finished. Although
cold weather has undoubtedly inter-
fered greatly with operations, the pre-
diction is made that by the time the
fair opens on April this exposition will
be more nearly in running order and
ready for the worlds attention than any
preceding one in history. The holding
of this celebration will furnish the usu-
al opportunity for the meeting of a
multitude of congresses and assem-
blages Of varied character, which, with
the natural interest evoked by such an
enormous enterprise, seems destined to
make st. Louis the Mecca of millions
of people during the ensuing spring
and summer.

Among the Congresses to be held at
st. Louis this year will be one on
tuberculosis. The object Is to see If
some general method can not be OBJ
tanned for arresting the spread and
averting the ravages of consumption.
Germany has been singular'y success
full in combating this disease. 1t is
one of the lost fruitful sources Of
death here and on the mainland. 1t
would be a good thing if some of
our medical men would attend this
congress, and draw ideas for a crusade
against the disease here.

MONSTER COAL SHED
To Be Erected in This City by the
Maine Central.

The conference of several officials OF
the road in this city, Friday, was ex-
planned. Saturday. when the Maine
! Central Railroad Co. awarded to the
Proctor & Bowie Co, contractors of this
i city, the contract for the building of a
monster coal shed in the yards in this
city. The new shed will be located on
the river side of the tracks above
Seavcy street, and will be 1850 feet
long and have capacity of about r.
900 tons. The value of the contract is
S1S.450.
The building of the shed has been
contemplated by the management Of
the road for Il long time. and for Il
month past the section crews have been
working setting over the tracks in the
ward and placing new ones. The old
sheds will be removed and the new
structure will replace them.
Considerable difficulty was found by
the company in getting lumber for the
struction of the big shed. The contract
calls for $50. coo feet of lumber for its
construction. and the specifications in
clude go rafters, each 80 feet in length
and 12x12 stuff, aggregating 1900 linear
feet. 1t is strange. but nevertheless

SAVED HIS LIFE.
Prompt Assistance Saved Little Boy
from Being Burned to Death.

Quite good deal of excitement was
caused here, Saturday forenoon, by an
accident which occurred to a little boy
of about 6 years Of age, which might
have resulted very seriously if kind
hearted people had not lent their aid,
and although suffering somewhat from
the result saved the boys life About
10 o'clock, a little boy was seen running
down Bridge street with his clothes all
on fire. ii. +. Burgess. A. Fl. Ttotman
A. l.. Hatch and several others saw the
child and also saw that he was very
much frightened. They stopped him,
and threw some clothes around him,
smothering the fire, before he was very
much burned. Mr.. Hatch's hands
were. however, burned quite badly. 1t
was at first thought that the boy had
been in the blacksmith shop and that a
spark had set his clothing on fire, but
on inquiry it was found that he had
not been near the blacksmith shop. but
that in all probability, he had been
smoking a cigarette and had concealed
it in his clothing, which caused the
trouble. He was taken to the office of
DIR. l.. d. Rand, where his wounds We're
dressed. His flesh was burned into
quite deep, which made the wounds
rather painful.

could meet the demands Of the contract.
Three down-river mills ATTEMPTED on
it, but when their owners saw what the
contract called for they shook their

Il. & A. country or in New Brunswick.
AS soon as the lumber is ready the
work of building the shed will be rushed
to completion and then the old sheds
will be removed and tracks laid over
the site now occupied by them, giving
much needed room
Very few people realize the amount
of coal required to cary on operations
in the local yard Of the Maine Central.
Some 80 locomotives are coaled here
every day. requiring about 100 tons Of
coal. This means about $4,000 tons in
the course of year. Two crews Of 10
men each are kept at work day and
night filling the tenders of the big mo-
guls which pass through the yard, and
the smaller engines which are shunting
When the new shed is built a new
method of coaling engines will be in
stalled, Whereby great amount Of
time and labor will be saved. With the
building of this shed and that of the
proposed new freight platform, the
yard will be full of activity the coming
summer,

MOGULS, 9; TAcoNNET, 6.
Game Was Loose but Furnished Plenty
of Excitement.

The Moguls and the Taconnet Club
baseball teams met on the Colby da-
mond after the Colby-Bates game,
Saturday afternoon, in game which,
though the playing was loose, was full
of excitement. The Moguls won by a
hitting. This is the first time the teams
have met, as they have been organized
but a short time, but there is some
good baseball material in both teams
and there will probably be some no.
games between them before the end of
the season. George Hegarty did good
work in the box for the Moguls, strik-
ing cut u men and getting a home run
and three-bagger.
The Taconnet Club tried two pitch
ers, Hurd pitching the first three in
nings and Stobie replacing him. Each
had four StrikeOuts to his credit, but
gave number of passes. Hegarty was
touched up for five hits, while the Mo-
guls connected with the ball safely for
nine hits. The teams batted as follows

WATERVILLE.
THE CELEBRATION.
Colby Boys "Whoop Err Up" Over Win

Colby celebrated her victory over
Bates. Saturday afternoon. by which
she clinchad her title to the college
championship of the State by 4 process
sion ami bonfire and general jOliilica-
ton in tho evening. Immediately after
the game one of the Watervile & Fair
field electric cars was turned over to
the students ard all who could find q
seat or footing piled on. The car was
decorated with banners procliaming
Colby the champion of the state and
other legends. and nearly every stu
dent had some instrument with which
to make noise. The car ran the length
! of the city and then back to the cam
pus.
In the evening, the students to the
number Of more than 100 formed a pro-
| cesSion, headed by Boutlettes French
band. and marched about the city.

, bearing banners and torches. The pro-
! cesSon halted before the homes of

! nearly every one responding. Then the
procession marched to the field where
a great pile Of tar barrels and other
! iniammables had been gathered. and
the pile iGnted, illuminating the whole
campus with a light almost as bright
| as day.
The grand stand and bleachers were
well filled with "co-eds'' and towns
folk who turned out to see the fun. and
| the sight of the students executing a
sort of war-dance about the fire and
singing college songs WAS Il pic
turesq!e one. 1t was great game for
Colby ana justified the celebration
which was held.
"Cy" CoomhS has demonstrated that
lie is tie superior of any other college
pitcher il the State. He has pitched
every game in the Maine college series,
and has won four out of the six. At NJ
time has he been hit heavily, many of
the runs scored by Colbys opponents
being due to poor support. and he has
shown himself to be equal to every
emergency which has come up. He has
been ably seconded by Cowing, VINO

Colby and in whom Colby will lose a
valuable man in all branches of sport.
