and loved joke for the sake of hearing
men laugh and seeing smiles instead of
frowns. Generous to a fault, of a kindly,
sympathetic nature which he concealed be-

the pleasure of knowing him will long re-
member him as a man to whom sunshine

Massachusetts, Bounty to Veterans.

Civil war veterans OF this State who serv-
ed to the credit of the State of Massachu-
sets are considerably interested in recent
act passed by the legislature of that State.
Under it Massachusetts, proposes to give
every soldier and sailor who served to
never received h single dollar of bounty
money. 1928 in cash. The subject of
paying bounties in Massachusetts has
been almost constantly before the leg
iSlature since the close of the war,
and this year, when it was known that the
State was to receive from the national gov
eminent 81 ,66O.6O0 for war claims, this bill
to award veterans 1925 was put through
with the provision that while bonds should
be issued to pay this bounty, the bonds
themselves should be refunded out of the
amount coming from Washington. The bill
was vetoed by the governor, but was passed
over his head by both branches of the leg
islature. In the house, while it received a
two-thirds vote of the members present and
voting, it did not receive two-thirds vote
of the full membership of the house Ac-
cordlngly the matter was referred to the at
torney general of the State as to which is
the legal two-thrds vote The attorney
general has ruled that two-thirds vote Of
the full membership of the house was neces-
sary for legal action. Accordingly the
State treasurer refuses to pay out any money
on these claims. 1t is expected, however,
that funds will be raised to bring a test case
before the courts, where finally by appeal a
decision from the full bench of the Supreme
Judicial court will be obtained which will
end the controversy.
Among the many Maine claimants are the
following: Frederick f. Sprague, of Bangor
enlisted October, 1861, in Co. A of the
Twenty-sixth Massachusetts volunteers and
was discharged April 1865. Henry r. Daw-
son, of Monroe, Me-, served in Co. d, of the
Fifteenth Massachusetts infantry all
through the war. He was taken a prisoner
at BalPs Bluff but was released ON exchange.
He was wounded at Gettysburg and also at
the Battle of the Wilderness. William H.

ROCKLAND, Me-, July 90 Fire that
entailed a loss of SIS, 900 broke out to-
night in the waterfront buildings own
ed by the TillsOn estate, burned for
more than two hours and threatened
to destroy four steamers, among them
the James T. Morse, owned by the
Eastern Steamship Company. The loss
is partially covered by insurance
The cause of the fire is unknown.
The flames were first seen coming from
the windows of the Shuman Machine
Company. Before long the entire
building was a mass of fire. The Sim
mons & White lobster store: and a
creamery, conducted by the same firm,
were in the building where the fire
started. The building burned to the
ground. The Simmons & White Com
pany had $4,000 Holsters in cars moored
just outside the plant. These were
towed out of danger.
Sparks from the burning buildings
fell in showers on the steamers James
7. Morse, Governor Bodwell, Catherine
and Juliet. These vessels were finally
towed out into the harbor and the in
cipient blazes caused by the sparks ex-
tinguished.
OF the total estimated loss of S75, 900
more than 100000 falls on the Tillson
estate. The loss to the Shuman Ma
chine Company is estimated at $500.

There is always abundant entertain
ment at this unique resort, not the least
of which is to watch the incoming tide
of travel from the veranda of large

to the Springs, such opportunities for
displaying handsome costumes, or for
hirtations, which to say the least are in
the atmosphere, SO prevalent are they.
Then there are the morning concerts on
the piazzas of the great hotels. The
breakfast dress is often an indication
of the refinement and good taste of the
wearer. A simple linen, piQue, canvas
OF etamine dress, or black skirt and
handsome white shirt-waist are in
keeping with the hour, and even a tat
feta silk or checked silk shirt-waist
suit is appropriate and also admissible
for early afternoon.
THE HANDsoMEsT
checked silk suits are of pin-head chiffon

finished by cord or pipings of contrast

the afternoon or evening, prominent
among which are black or white nets,
the folmer trimmed with lace medal
lions and the latter by tucks and rutfles
of the net. edged by Nalenciennes lace.
