Tho Transfer Of the Arsenal Proper

Tho Transfer Of the Arsenal Property.
The citizens of Augusta and of the
State will be gfatified to learn that the
Kennebec Arsenal property has been
transferred to Maine for the use OF the
Insane hospital i'm this city. Congress-
man Burleish received the decd. duly
executed. from Secretary of War Iait'
Saturday. A copy of the same VIII ne
found, this morning, in another part Vi
this issue. 1t seemed almost 100 hiuch
to hope for. in the closing days OF the
last session of Congress. that Congress-
man Burlcigh would be able 10 secure
unanimous consent in the House OF
REPRESENTATIVES. for the consideration OF
his bill authorizing the transfer OF this
vaiuabl property to Maine. and to Sc
cure its passage by practically unan-
imous vote. The great value Of this
property will appear more and more
as the work of utilizing it for State
purposes in connection with the Insane
HOSpItdI DTOSIcSSVo. A<ot ohiy II
the natural advantages that so to
make up an almost ideal river park.
but is possession on the part of the
State will make it possible to con-
struct road on an easy grade which
VIII shorten the distance between
Water street and the Insane hospital
fully three-quarters of a mile. The
buildings upon the Arsenal grounds are
in an excellent state of preservation.
aid all of them can be utilized for
hospital purposes.
Now that this magnificent property
has come into the possession of the
State it is safe to say that the changes
and improvements which the trustees
of the hospital have had in cOntcmpla
tioE Will he pushed forward to compile
ton as rapidly as possible.

A Victory for Wireless TeIegraphy.

If wireless tclegraphy never accom-
plishes anything more lham it already
has done in the way of making ocean
travel safer. it will have justified amply
the expenditures and work of those
who have developed this marvellous in
vention. During the last few weeks
the transatlantic steamships have re-
ported large number of icebcrSs in
the direct course followed by the North
Atlantic lines. For som" reason there
are more large iccb.rgs. this spring
than for many years past. and of
course the danger 20 shipping has
greatly Increased. But nearly all of the
great lines are now equipped with wire
less telegraph apparatus. and this in
vention has been developed to such d
degree that it is used in the service of
sending warnings, oftcl across hum
dredS of miles of expallSe. SO that one
vessel informs another of the location
of these dangerous berss. A writer in
the Washington Star tells of an inter-
esting and significant ntident of the
latest trip Of the Kaiser Wilhelm, II,
which reached New York last week.
So fit was the ship that her officers
had hoped to establish Il new record for
the run westward, and she was going
ahead at a rate when PROMISED such
Il result when she received a signal
from the Tcutonic, 90 miles away on
the eastbOund course, telling of the
presence Of nine bergS in the dircc.
path Of the Kaiser. and experimenting
this with message the Teutonic had
received from the Cunlrtier Caronia
Announcing that there were forty bergs
warned the officers of the giant racer
determined to sacrifice speed to safety.
and to slow down upon approaching the
probable location of the bergs. which
had been given in terms OF latitude and
longitude by the Teuton". On the next
morning dense fog closed in. and the
snip crept ancdu, comparatively speak
ing, with extra lOokouts on guard and
the fog whistle sounding at intervals
for the special purpose oe catching an
echo from some mass of ice. There
were no such signs. but presently the
temperature Of the watHr dropped from
fourteen degrees to one degree cent?
grade and it was known that ice was
near. Fortunately the fcg lifted soon
afterward and disclosed 4 western hori-
ION studded with bergs Of all sizes.
some of them large enough to have
sunk, or at least seriously crippled. the
liner if struck at full speed. Through
tie feet Of bergs the Kaiser then sped
at high rate. taking advantage Of the
sunlight, but several times being COM
pel,ed to shift course to avoid masses of
ice Thus the ship went in safety
through a danger which might have
caused the loss of great craft and
hundreds Of people.

After Forty Years,

In connection with the comments
upon the 4Oth anniversary of the close
of the Civil War, one or two prominent
newspapers have taken occasion to ex-
press the opinion that if the presidents
Immediately following the close of the
war had adopted southern policies like
that proclaimed recently by Mckinley
and Roosevelt. the era of good feeling
would have come with the restored
Union. and the country would have es-
capped the 80 years or more of rancOr
from Appomattox to the war with
Spain. OF course. such comments as
these are highly complimentary to the
policies of Mckinley and Roosevelt.
but ii is nevertheless unjust to blame
Grant. Hayes. Garfield. Cleveland and
Harrison for not bringing about the
good feeling between the North
and South which exists at the
present time. No policy could
have been adopted i'm 1865. or
Immediately following. which would

The plans are completed for the new
station to be erected. this spring, at
Belgrade. The old station. which was
built when the line first went there.
still remains and is now altogether too
small to take care of the big increase
in business. The new station will be
IS feet long by "a feet wide and will
have a fine covered platform 200 feet
in length extending to the street. The
new station will be located north of the
present one which will not be disturbed
until the new one is built. The freight
house will be on the other side of the
road where the house of Alexander
Trask stands. The locations of the
main track and the switch will be
transported so that the former will be
beside the station. The Maine Central
will also build a freight house at Read
field to replace the one burned last
week. 1t will be 100 feet long and "a
feet wide.

pears that Justice fmcrv held Major
John J. Doolcy of Portland. to jury
duty after the Major had called his ut
tention to tn" section Of the military
law which exempted members of the

through tho day in consequence. but
after court adjourned he procured Il
copy of the law and laid before Justira

duty while in the National Guard
Judge Emery studied this for few
