On exhibition at the store of F. A.
Shurtleff x Co. there is TO be seen a vial
containing sixty or seventy brown tail
moth caterpillarS, together with the re-
mains of their nest, which was pulled TO
pieces TO get them out. There is no
question that they are the real thing.
The nest was procured by G.. II. Porter
In Portland, where it was picked from
cherry tree, and the bounty was paid on
it BY the city. A look at these might
make il easier to identify the enemy if
nest should be discovered.
Miss Edith NJ. Patch, who is the ento-
mologist at the Maine experiment station
at Orouo, was in town few hours last
Monday, looking for evidences of the
brown tail moth. She found no indica-
tons Of the existence of any in this vi
entity, except such nests as have been
burned She reported finding some
nests in Poland during her investiga-
tons. which Is the nearest point to us
where the pest seems TO be definitely
located at present But there is no
certainty that it is not present in our
immediate vicinity, and there is no rea-
son or excuse for any relaxation OF
vigilance.
An excellent old folks concert was
given in the Methodist church Wednes-
day evening. 1t was preceded by good
supper in the vestry. The principal

/. Burnham was director, and the local
singers were assisted by Professor w. 5.
Wight of Bethel. The director and the
ladies of the chorus were attired in well
selected costumes of various degrees oil
antiquity. The chorus selections were
mainly those old hymns and fugues
which were so familiar three-quarters OF
a century ago, and which have survived
the years so that they are quite vel
known to musical people Of the present
day There were also solos by Mrs. III
4. Wilson and Professor Wight, trios
