H. Quimby terminated his connection with
the Belfast Savings Bank at the close of
banking hours yesterday, Oct 18th, The
first of last August Mr.. Quimby rendered
his resignation as treasurer, to take effect
on or before Dec. list, 1905. Later he con-
cluded to commemorate his 42nd birthday,
which occurs today, Oct. 10Th, by retiring
from active business. Few men of his age
have had so much experience in banking or
have been able to retire so early in life.

Savings Bank he had assisted his father,
the late John ii. Quimby, for mary years
the efficient and trustworthy treasurer In
1882 Mr.. Quimby entered the Belfast Ma
tional Bank as assistant cashier. Sept l,

of his father on a vacation trip, still retain
ing his connection with the National Bank.

urer OF the Savings Bank, and has since
been connected solely with that institution.
Soon after the death of his father in 1899
Mr.. Quimby was elected treasurer, which
position he has now resigned. His success
sOr is Mr.. Wilmer j. DOrman, who for some
years past has been the assistant treasurer,
and previous to that the bookkeeper in the |
Belfast National Bank. Herbert T. Field, |
late of the Belfast, now The City National, |
Bank, succeeds Mr.. Dorman as assistant |
treasurer. Mr.. Quimby will retain his resi- |
dence here but will spend the winter in I
New York aDd Boston. He does not pro-
pose to engage in active business, but will
have desk at 105 Devonshire street. Bos-

A CORN ROAST ON THE SHORE. The
| evenings of last week were ideal for out-of-
door affairs, and a party of ten young la
| dies took advantage of the fact on Thurs
| day evening, when they enjoyed corn
roast and bonfire on the shore near the pa
viliOn. The evening was just cool enough
| to make the heat of the fire agreeable and a
| delicious supper was eaten by its light Al
| though the olives were a bit late in arrlv-
| ing they finally put in an appearance, great
! ly to the relief Of the company. The brisk
fire furnished the most desirable of Goals,
and if the corn got the least bit blackened,
or if it was seasoned with sand, every one
| looked upon such things as part of the
game. After supper the party grouped
| themselves in coy semicircle around the
| fire, while the guest of honor, the fireman,
monologist and general comedian, held the
interested attention of both orchestra and
gallery. The homeward journey was a
miniature torch-light procession, and every
| one agreed that it was one of the jolliest
| affairs of the season.
STEAMER NOTES. The repairs to be
made upon the Bucksport wharf by the
Maine Central will exclude the big boats of
the Eastern Steamship Company from touch
ing at that port for time. The railroad
company is about to add 80 feet to the front
of the wharf and while this is being done
the Eastern Steamship Company will trans
fer Its Bucksport passengers at Wnterport
to the Julette, which will be run between
Bucksport and Winterport. The Juliette
is now on the Rockland and Blue Hin line
while the Catherine is undergoing repairs
at Camden. When repairs on the Catherine
are completed the Juliette will be recaked
and repaired and then run as above. ..
The steamer j. 7. Morse will be hauled up
al Camden this winter instead Of Bath as
formerly. Camden is considered the better
place for winter quarters for the Morse be
cause she will be kept clear of the floating
ice. The steamer Rockland of the Bucks
port and Camden line made change in her
schedule Monday She remains here to con-
meet with the morning train, due at 1905.

smaller, the exception. Sometimes the owner of the boat is not stranger
 One small, square edifice erected on a scow and resting in the shade of 8 larger boat is thus explained by the lean, brown-faced workman on the front of the latter:
 They drift down mostly in January he says, with noticeable contempt for those who have not been" breed and
 bawn" in the vicinity.
 Some of 'em are big enough-three or four rooms and a kitchen-but them's mostly owned by Yankees that come down on huntin' and flshin' trips | mot regular shanty-boat people. Some's right nice little boats. People find they can live cheaper here'n land, and son1e"-he scowls virtuously- "somes nuthin' but loafers and vaga- bonds. They drift down the river, stealth a bit here and another bit here"
 But the middle class of "shanty
 beaters," those who were not bred an here, neither do they steal, Is less pic- turesque;.if if no less interesting. | IIlSy LftJNS LllG SlpSy DlOOu WlttlOuI the gipsy morals. Theory of vagrancy is on them, but the habits of every day ness have their hold as well. and the blend Is quaint, if illogical. l As fair a specimen as heart could
 want of this genus is the square-topped, red-painted shanty boat, with a squarer larger one just astern that floats in the
 curve of the river just where the bank 1 is muddiest, the windows droppiest and the view prettiest.
 1 The shanty boat itself is not large. It
 is partitioned off into two rooms-bed- room and kitchen-the first of which \ holds double bed, a sewing machine, several hanging bookshelves, a wash stand, a table and several chairs. The walls are gay with pictures; calendars chifly, and old photographs of quaintly dressed people in un- I pleaantly stiff poses.
 ! A picture of the President adorns one 1 corner. The owner of the boat--she who answers cheery summons of the old negro with an invitation as cheery --is tireless in her efforts to entertain the chance visitor;
 | She is a large woman, brown of hair
 and blue of eye and her calico gown is
 comfortable even unto carelessness. She 1 has been here three years, she says, and she likes it mighty well-'mazin' well.'

: powders her checks with the air of an 1 artist in such matters.
 There comes out of the growing dusk from tho other shanty boat, which 1 floats astern, a little cbrfimonplace man
 with nothing about him to show that
 the wander-lust runs in his veins He is not young, he is not handsome, his
 eyes are neshed in crows feet, and
 his hair struggles grayly around bald 1 crown, but the hound of your fancy is | on the trail and you see him as he was and as one other saw him.
 The other speaks of him.. quite coolly
 as 'the man who owns the boat" but l she cannot hide faint flavor of propri-
 etorship, and she regards him almost with pride.
 My first husband was a veteran" she says, with that willingness to | speak of private matters which is the trademark of these people, ''and he sor- ter hankered after his or stampin'
 ground, So three years ago we came down here, and he"-with jerk of her head toward the man in the half dusk behind her-"he was an of acquair1t- ance of our'n. I knew him when I was
 girl like Mandy there-he upn fol- lowed us. My husband died two years l ago, and it's right nice for us all to be here together"
 The larger boat floats just back of | the woman's, and a slender plank | rtaches from deck to deck. Crossing this plank, the atmosphere changes in- deffnably. The boat is divided into | three rooms-frst workroom Git is in the stern), then kitchen, then bedroom,
 not a comfortable litter of pictures and furniture like the foremost boat, but | severely clean and orderly.
 This man has had the gipsy strain all
 his life; he has wandered up and down in the shanty boat for years, yet there are incongruous conventionalities in the cross-stitched "God Bless our Home" which hangs over his bed and
 the screens of wire netting over every door and window. His kitchen is roomy and clean, with safe swinging
 in one corner and breakfast apparent on the white pine table. The woman
 takes visible pride in it's cleanliness. "Jes' as clean as this all the time," she says, "and jes' as comfortable. I | tell you, wouldn't be paid to live on shore, It took us two years to get here from St. Louis, what with tyin' up at | one place'n another, and it'll cost us one hundred dollars to be lowed back;
 but it's wuth it--it sho' is."
 Sometimes the tugs take as many as
 thirty or forty shanty boats up river at once. They won't take one at a time. Has to have a bunch. And the mo they is the less you has to pay. Once you starts back, though, you cant do no tyin' up-if you do, you're left.

PRINCE OF MONTENEGRO.
Father of His ;People-Calls Subjects by
 Christian Names.

Father of His People-Calls Subjects by
 Christian Names.
 The Poet Queen of Roumania is not the only soverign in Europe who writes verse and leads an intellectual life. Less known than Carmen Sylva Nicho- las I, reigning prince of Montenegro, may claim the attention of cultivated minds. Indeed, the great friendship by which his royal highness honors the writer of these lines has sprung from literary intercourse. The prince is a real poet and some of his dramas deal ing with the incidents of Montenegrin history might at any time thrill an audience and win real success for their author The Prince of Montenegro suc- ceeded his uncle when he was still quite youth, and broke up his studies in Paris rather abruptly to take possess sion of the throne left vacant by the decease of his uncle. From that day., the prince and his beautiful wife, Princess Milena, devoted themselves to the welfare of their subjects. Cettinje, if one of the smallest among European capitals, is not one of the less pictur- esque. The shrill whistle of the rail- way engines has not yet broken the peace and freshness that reign in it's pure mountain air. Many traits of modern civilization remain unknown to the dauntless sons of the Tehernagora (Blaek Mountainsl, and in many feat

ures their customs and their character resemble those of the ancient Scotch clans. The prince is far more the father of his subjects, the chieftain of the warriors, than their ruler. He wears the national garb, and on state occasions a tall white plume attached to his purple cap by a costly diamond jewel. He addresses, his subjects by their Christian names, and every one of them calls him father.
 The scenery of the Black Mountains is splendid indeed, and leaves lasting impression of grandeur and wild liber- ty to all those whose privilege it is to gaze on the huge rocks and the tiny black blue lake that border the way leading to Cettinje. Nor is the spell broken when reaches the prince's pal ace, though no detail of comfort is spared to make the traveller feel at his ease in the strange, weird land of bat tie, freedom and song. The aspect of such chieftains as grace the sovereign's table, the handsome and noble coun- tenances of Princess Minela, the pleas- ant and spirited anecdotes related by the prince in fluent French and with an air of utter silnplicity--everythi com- pines to bestow afeeling of novelty and warmth. Prince Nicholas belongs
 to very ancient dynasty indeed, and by his daugters' brilliant marriages he is now allied to almost all the great reigning houses in Europe. He was the best friend of the late Emperor Alexander III of Russia, and the presnt Czar shows him great affection and filial reverence. Our mountains are rugged and bare," writes the Prince of Montenegro, but our hearts are full of vigor and f1re'n The prince always cuts a conspicuous figure in such court ceremonies as he is prevailed on to ap-

 River gipsies--why not? We have river steamers, catfish, river shrimp then why not river gipsies? And what else would you call the dweIlers of those simple houseboats which drifts down the Mississippi? %~2>~
 They are not oppressed by poverty, say the New Picayune, for the wolf, mot being an amphibious animal cannot get to their door. They are not stifed by convention, for each as they have is of home manufacture; they are law unto themselves and, chiefest of all they are not unhappy, for their life is utterly without responsibility and the wanderlust is in. their blood.
 A walk along the levee any day re- veals untold possibilities in the way of learning their life and likings, and both are freely expressed for the river gip- sies, the men and women of the ':shanty boats," as they call their homes, are friendly to the last degree.
 This social instinct shows itself in the little settlements they form along the bank. Rarely does a ''shanty boat tie up alone. Groups of two or three are the common rule; anything larger or

pear in whether in Italy or in Russia. His tall forms towers high above the crowd, and the brilliant colors of his costume, the great ease of his every movement, the glittering row of knives he wears in his belt, always make him the centre of attention.
 Lately he stood sponsor to his grand son. Unberto, Prince of Piedmont and heir to the Italian throne. Queen Hell ena of Italy, while still young girl, spent her time at Settinje in helping her father not only to attend upon the wants and demands of the poor, but also in the pursuit of his literary labors. Together they collected or composed ballads whose ardor, patriotic feeling and strange original beauty have rarely been surpassed if ever equalled. An other of the princess daughtrs is mar ried to Russian dulSe,t aNthird to the Duke of Leuchtenberg, fourth to Prince Francis Joseph of Battenberg, while his eldest daughter, the Princess zorlSa, who was the wife of the present King of Servia, died many years ago in giving birth to a son. Princess Milena is very clever and well versed in English and French literature Her husband speaks four languages, and the palace in Cettinje is. a place where books are always received and perused with joy. The prince is, moreover, as brave as his subjects, and loves to hear Or to tell the old feats accomplished by his ancestors or the great heroes of his heroic land. Two daughters of the gifted pair still remain unmarried; their grace, goodness and beauty are all ready much spoken of and they are ex- cellent sportswomen. In fact, the reig- ming family of Montenegro is one in which virtue and intelligence are well cared for and tradition is not aband- oned, though the prince keeps ii touch with every intellectual movement of the present day.-Helene Vacaresco, in The Outlook.
