SPARKS FROM MAINE WIRES.

The steamer Mineola. from Portland
to Rockland. arrived at Popham.
Thursday morning. She was the first
passenger steamer TO land at the gov
ernment wharf at Sabine Head. She
brought fittings for the rooms of the
government building on the hill.
Stephen r. Hall of Calais, brakeman
on freight train No. 80, Washington
County Railway, had a close call. Tues
day. at East Machias. and the speed
Of the train alone prevented his being
killed instantly. The train was run
ming slowly into the siding and Brake
man Hall, who was riding on the en-
gine, had his head out of the cab VIM
dow watching some piece of the ma
chinery which had worked loose, when
he was struck by Il switch target which
caught him under the left jaw, in the
throat. and dragged him from the cab.
In falling he landed upon a stone which
bruised and cut him about the face and
head. The wound made by the target
was nearly two inches deep and some
time will e1apse before it is healed. but
the injuries to his face and head, while
painful are less severe. Medical at
tendance was quickly available and af-
ter having his injuries dressed Hall
was sent on the evening train to his
home in Calais. Had the train been
running faster the victim in all likel-
hood would have had his neck broken
and his escape from fatal injury was
remarkable.

RAIN WAS WELCOME.
kennebec Storage Basins and River
Now in Very Good Condition.

Waterville Me, Nov. 9.-The past
three days of Indictment weather, while
it may have been of considerable dis
advantage to many, has been of in
calculablc value to the lumber indus
try of the State and the industrial
plants located along the Kennebec
river. Water in the greatest storage
basins had become very low and the
ground along the river water shed dry.
Rather more than one foot of snow
has fallen in the Moosehead lake re-
gion which is expected to melt during
the next few days if warm weather
prevails as expected and the drought
will be greatly relieved. This followed
by the average wet weather due be-
tween now and the first of the new
year is believed to make certain suffi-
Gent water to save the mills and fac
tories along the kennebec river for the
entire winter.

MEDALS or HONOR.
Decision on Retention of Old or Ex-
change for the New.

Washington, Nov. AT the request
OF the secretary of war. Attorney Cen
eral Moody has rendered decision
upon the legislation of April 80. 1904,
relating to medals of honor. The leg
islation provided that 5000 medals be
prepared for the purpose of replacing
medals which have been heretofore is
sued. An officer of the Civil War who
was granted a medal during that period
desired to secure one of the new medals
and also to retain the old one and made
such an application to the secretary Of
war. The secretary referred the mat
ter to the attorney general and in an
opinion, which has been approved by
Acting Secretary Oliver, it is held that
if 4 new medal is issued it must be to
replace one of the old medals which
has .een lost or that the old medal
must be surrendered. The holder of
an old medal is not compelled to sur
render it, but may retain it if he pre-
fcrs it to one of the new medals.

ROWDOiN DEBATING TEAM.
Robert A. Cony Of Augusta Chosen
Manager for Coming Year.

Brunswick, Me, Nov. 9.-(SpeciaD -
At the first regular meeting of the Bow
doin Debating council. held this week,
the organization of the council was
completed with the election of the de-
batting manager and assistant manag-
er. The constitution of the council has
also been drafted.
The bal!oting for a manager for the
debating team or teams resulted in
the choice of Robert A. Cony, '07, as
manager, and Roscoe Henderson Hup-
per, '0S. was elected assistant man
ager The other officers of the council
We're elected at the meeting of those
interested in debating, at which the
council was organized.
That Bowdoin's debating teams
have made a name for themselves by
their victories over Amherst is
shown by the fact that the college has
received two challenges within the
past ten days one from Wesleyan Uni
versity and one from Boston Univer-
sity Law School. No action has been
taken III the case of either of the two
challenges, as yet, although it seems
certain that the latter will not be ac-
cepted. because of the fact of the pre-
vious claims of three colleges-Am-
herst, Bates and Wesleyan.
The question that confronts the de-
batting council is at present a rather
important one. 1t is to what extent
Bowdoin wishes to extend her debating
work. That the annual Amherst de-
bate will be continued is a foregone
conclusion. as only the renewing of
agreements that have held in former
years is now to be done. and. so far
as known. there is no inclination at
either Bowdoin or Amherst to discon-
tinue the splendid series of debates
that have been held in the past. But
about the other debates there seems
to be much to say on both sides. and
Il is here that the Bowdoin debaters
and students must come to the con-
clusion. AS to what will be done is
problematical.

ALIVE AND WELL,
boothbay Merchant Who Left Kelley
Institute is in Canada.

Boothbay Harbor, Nov st was
learned here, last night, that Eugene
Lewis the Boothhay merchant who ran
away from the Kelley Institute in
Portland has written to his sister, Mrs.
Benjamin Pinkham, asking her if she
wants him to come back. The letter
is dated Ottawa. Canada. but Mr.. Lewis
doesn't explain how he happened to be
there.
Lewis disappearance from the Port
land institution almost Il month ago,
with large amount of money in his
possession caused considerable excite
ment and fears were entertained,
recally in his home town that he had
met with foul play, the object of course
being robbery. Authorities at the time
the disappearance WAS made known to
them. made a careful search but with
no clues to follow they We're all in the
dark, and it seemed very doubtful if
Lewis would be located unless he chose
to make known his whereabouts
Beyond the bare fact that Lewis is
now at Ottawa nothing is known here.
He made no statement concerning his
physical condition nor how he hap
pened to be located at Ottawa. When
he left the institute at Portland he
was considered in good physical con-
dition. in fact the manager said that
he could safely return to his home at
any time and resume his business.
People here are of the opinion that
Lewis went Immediately to ottawa
from Portland, for he had plenty of
money for the purchase of a ticket
and his going would in no way at
tract attention. 1t is reported in this
town that Lewis has n job in view in
Ottawa and possibly may not return
to his home unless his relatives are
anxious that he do so.
Lewis relatives can reach no other
solution for his queer movements. They
are not certain that Lewis will return
to Boothbay.

THE JAPANESE MISSION.
The President DESTROYS of Its eeino
Raised to an EMBASSY.

Washington, Nov. 9.-Mr. Takahira.
the japanese minister here, had a
long talk, today, with Sec. Root re-
specting the business of his mission
which the minister is putting in shane
preparatory to departing for Janan on
an extended leave of absence. While
he is in Toxic, the minister will discuss
with the foreign Office officials the ex-
pediency of raising the Japanese mis-
sion here TO the rank of an embassy.
President Roosevelt would be glad
10 see this DONE and he is particular
ly desirous that Mr.. Takahira for whom
he has conceived the highest esteem,
should have the honor of being the
first japanese ambassador to America
But the President cannot initiate this
movement. because the existing stat
utes provide that he NAV erect the
American legation at Toxic into an
embassy only after he has been adyis-
ed that the japanese government has
taken such action in the case of it's
own diplomatic representative in
Washington. To carry this into effect.
the Diet of Japan must first give its
assent to the change and that is the
matter which Mr.. Takahira will take
up with the foreign office officials
when he reaches Japan.
The Diet will not convene until De-
cember so that the change in the grade
of the diplomatic posts at Washing
ton and Toxic, if it is made at all,
probably cannot be made until early
next year.
