HEARING ON SATURDAY,
To Settle sAs Dispass Absut ths Rssss'
 voir at ths Cremstesy.

There will be q hearing Saturday at short calendar in the district court to dissolve the injunction which restraints Hubert M. Rigney from using cer- tain reservoir connected with the gar- bage crematory in Waterville. This arrangement was arrived at this mOrn- ing between Attorney Thomas, counsel for Rigney and Attorneys Kelley and Church for Mrs Margaret Carroll who succeeds Mir Rigney as garbage collect or It seems it is impossible to prop erly dispose of the garbage without the use of the reservoir in dispute. Mir Rigney claims the reservoir is his ex- elusive property inasmuch as it was built by him after he had made his contract as garbage collector with the city some five years ago. It was then decided that the garbage crematory was to become the property of the city after the expiration of MT. Rigncy's contract.

GETTING UP AND GOING TO BED.
One of the Most Potent Questions in
 Disturbing Domestic Quiet.

Probably the first question to cause dissension in families, and one Of the most potent always in disturbing do- nestle quiet and promoting divorce, has been the proper hours for going to bed and getting up. It is more than likely that the very first morning a1ter Eve was bestowed upon Adam, when she walked for the first time at sun rise, and, gently nudging him on the sore place where the rib had just come from, told him to get up and get some fruit for breakfast, he replied that II was absurd to be stirring around at such an hour; that he couldn't thlnk of running about in the wet grass in his pare feet, and turned over ana went to sleep. Married people nave always been doing just about the same thing, and it must have had begin ming. It is certain, at all events, that there have been, as far back as we can trace anything, two distinct theor- ies and two widely varying habits or life in relation to the hours appropriate for sleep. On the one hand we have the subject looked at on its poetic side, of rising with the lark to greet the first coming of the king of day, to listen to the early birds and breathe in the freshness and inspiration that come only with the dawning hours. Then there is the economic side, eX- pressed in proverbs of many peoples, such as "the early bird catches the worm," "early to bed" etc., and it is not to be denied that there have been and are both people so sentimental and so thrifty as to make such say ings the guiding principles of their lives, and to follow them out in prac- tice.
 It ought to be said in passing, in justice to the poets, that not all of them have been enamored of the rosy dawn. Sake says:
 God bless the man who first invented
 sleep;
 So Sancho Panza said, and so say 1; And bless him, also, that he didn't keep
 The great discovery to himself. But blast the man with curses loud and
 deep
 Who first invented and went round ad
 vising
 That artificial cutoff, early rising.
 That seems to be about the view of the everyday sensible man, but the difficulty has always been to find some standard to 20 by or some reason. able average for bedtime, between those who want to go to roost, and start a new day with the chickens and those who are bent on sitting 1T till daylight and sleeping till dinner time.-Cincinnat Enquirer.

sPRlNGTIME IN TIBET.
At That Season of the Year There Is
 Much Color.

Much Color.
 Before entering the bare, unshelter- ed plateau of Tibet the road to Lhasa winds through seven miles of pine forest, which recalls some of the most beautiful valleys of Switzerland, says London Mail correspondent.
 The wood line ends abruptly. After that there is nothing but barrenness and desolatlon. The country round Chumbi is not very thickly forested. There are long strips of arabic land on each side of the road, and villages every two or three miles. The fields are terraced and inclosed within stone walls. Scattered on the hillside are stone-built houses with low, overhang- ing caves and long wooded tiles each weighed down with gray boulder. One might imagine ones self in Kan derstege or Lauterbrunnen, only lofty praying flags and mani-walls brightly painted with Buddhistic pictures and inscriptions dispel the illusion.
 There is no lack of color. In the winter months briar with large red berries and a low, foXey-brown thorn bush like young osier in March lend russet hue to the landscape. Higher on the hills the withered grass is vel low, and the blending of these quiet tints, russet, brown and yellow, gives the valley a restful beauty. But in cloud it is somber enough. When the spring comes there is profusion of color. Every stunted rhododendron bush blossoms luXuriantly.
 Two years ago 1 was in the Yatung valley at the same elevation as the gorge below Gautsa, which l am now describing, and not days march from it. The ground was carpeted with flowers. Besides the primulas- 1 counted eigat different kinds of them and gentiaas and anenones and ce- | landines and wild strawberries and rises, there were the rhododendrons glowing iik. coals through the pine forest. The rocks were coated with green and yellow moss, which formed bed for tho dwarf rhododendron bushes, then in full flower, white and crimson and green and every hue be- tween a dark reddish brown and a light sulphur yellow, not here and there, but everywhere, jostling one an other for hooks and crannies in the rocks.
 Those delicate flowers are very diff ferent from their dowdy cousin, the coarse red rhododendron of the En glish shrubbery. At little distance they are more like hothouse azaleas and equal them in wealth of blossom
