Tchertkoff and a delegation of manu-
facturers regarding a continuance of
the strike and the possibility of pre-
venting further trouble The govern
Or general favored extreme repressiye
measures, but the employers were di-

taliation through taking life by bombs
and destruction of property by fire.
Private kilograms received from
Dombrova say all the factories there
are closed. Thirty thousand wagon
loads of ore are standing ON the rail
way tracks and the entire freight traf-
fc of the Vistula line must be sus-
pended unless the wagons are re-
moved. -
The coal supply is the most urgent
question in Warsaw since the Sosnovice
strike began. Governor General
TchertkOH has received a telegram
from Emperor Nicholas permitting him
to import coal free of duty from Silesia
for a fortnight, and orders were i'm

WRITING TO THE EDITOR

The editor of lions Advocate seems
to have struck responsive chord in
the breasts of the more worldly Maine
brethren, in addressing an appeal to cor
respondents to consider the editor a
little more. Not only are those who
write letters to the press prone to alb
breviate all the words that can be ab-
breviated and many that cannot, and
to leave it to the editor to guess what
many of the proper names used may be
and afterward find fault if he does
not guess right-but in other ways
they are usually too little considerate
of the man behind the desk. A fire.
quent failing is to use paper as if it
were gold leaf, scribbhng all over a
tiny scrap, often torn and soiled, pro-
ducing copy so illegible that it is al
most impossible to put in shape for the
compositor.
The man the editor likes to hear from
is the man who writes legibly and in
full on only one side of sheet of paper.
with space enough between the lines
for the blue pencil corrections if any
have to be made. Communications of
that sort get the promptest attention
and publication. The Chinese puzzles
are often either thrown directly into
the waste basket of put aside until
there is time to waste on them. And
don't forget to send your name with
the article.

Women as Fruit-Growers.

81 must state" says Madeline Reilly,
writing of raising small fruits for
profit, in the New Idea Woman's Maya
zine for April, "that if fancy prices are
to be given for your products, only the
most perfect fruits must be sent to
your customers, and that after they
have passed under your personal super
vision, as careless picker may ruin a
basket of luscious berries by adding one
or two overripe specimens" This
simply illustrates the principle to be
observed in all successful enterprises,
that the hand of the mastor must show
in every detail. Miss Reilly continues
by taking up in turn the growing of
strawberries, raspberries, blackberries,
currants and gooseberries, which she
says "are always staple articles and
apt to find ready market, although
the variety of plants selected must be
governed entirely by the demand for
certain fruits in your locality"

they remove for the exigencies of eat

Another excursion which may easily
be made from Georgetown is to the
famous Kaietur Falls-one of the
grandest wonders of the kind in the
world, which was discovered by an
Englishman of the Royal Geographical
Survey some 80 years ago. At least
that was its first recorded discovery by
a white man, the Indians having
trembled at it's thunders and rejoiced
in its rainbows from time immemorial
Its existence was first made known by
an aboriginal tradition, from which its
name (kaietur meaning "Old Man, ') is
derived-of a white-haired spook in flow
ing garments perpetually leaping from
the cliff. The stupendous falls are form
ed by a sudden dip in the bed of the
Pataro River, western tributary of
the Essequldo, the water being
precipitated from the high sandstone
tablelands of the interior to the deep
valley of the Essequido, at sea-level,
over cliff 1,130 feet high. Its first
perpendicular leap is over eight hun
bred feet, in sheet of water four hun
dred feet wide, which looks from below
like magnificent crystal column, cir
cled by rainbows: then in a series of
sloping cataracts over enormous mass
es of black rocks it PUSHES to the river
bed, three hundred feet below the first
basin. To reach tn is rival Niagara you
go up the Essequido to its confluence
with the NaZaruni on another little
iron paddle-wheel steamer; and then
there remains tedious tramp, or horse
back journey. of several miles to the
foot of the falls, whose thunders shake
the ground and can be heard long
distance. On the sane trip, by Chang
ing at the junction of the rivers to
another steamer, you may visit the
British Guiana convict colony, known
as Georgetown Settlement 1t is
about 20 miles above the Capital, on
the Mazaruni River. 1t consists of a
group of comfortable cottages tenanted
by the prison officials surrounding the
convict quarters. In the middle is a
square stone lookout tower, whose
great clock solemnly tolls the dragging
hours. 1t is situated upon the highest
point of land within radius of many
miles, to catch the coolest airs that are
going SO near the Equator, and is well
shaded by palm and mango trees and
downy clumps of bamboo, environed
by well-kept fruit and vegetable gar
dens, the result of convict labor. Four
hundred is the average number of
prisoners, the majority having been
sent up for theft and few serving
life sentences for murder.

PURINTON AND PROHIBITION
Waterville's New Mayor Will Enforce the
Liquor Law.

hfNoA LAW
WATERvILLE, March Is. Mayor
Horace Purinton and City Marshal
ADAMS today called on all places in the
city where they had reason to suppose
that intoxicating liquor has been sold
and informed the proprietors that they
must obey the prohibitory law or take
the consequences. So far as known all
those who were visited have complied
with the order and the town is called
dry tonight by those who have taken
occasion to investigate. Mayor Purin-
ton has been an earnest temperance
man for years and has been prominent

much mooted question whether a MAYOR

IN Maine city seems to be in fair
way for some sort of a solution. That
the mayor intends to push things to
the limit as mayor, just as he did as a
leading member of the Christian civic
league, may be seen from the follow

Marshal Adams today:

100 Miles an Hour.

A locomotive that will run 5000 miles
without stop at the rate of 100 miles
an hour is said to be be a successful
achievement and one has been ordered
by the Southern Pacific railroad If it
will do what its makers promise it must
revolutionize transportation.
This locomotive is really power
house on wheels. 1t is to be run exclu-
sively by fusel oil, costing but from
three to five cents a gallon and can be
run for one-half the cost of running the
ordinary locomotive.
This machine avoids the necessity of
expensive water tanks and coal chutes.
At such speed the wonder is how it can
be made to stay OH the earth. But it is
said to have been tried.

The Brown Tail Moth.

Whoever gathers brown-tail moths
should take care to keep them intact.
Don't tear the nests open to see what

the warmth will bring the young cater
pillars swarming out! In short, use
every precaution to prevent the destroy
ers from escaping and scattering.
Remember that while it is the nests
that the bounty is to be paid upon, the
young caterpillars inside are the dan

to buy and destroy.-Bath Times.
