A SUNRISE OF THOUGHT.

Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn:
Look to this day for it is Life, the very life
of Life. In its brief course lie all the verities
and realities of your existence; the bliss Of
growth, the glory of action, the splendor of
beauty. For yesterday is but dream, and to-
morrow is only vision but today well lived
makes every yesterday a dream Of happiness
and every tomorrow vision of hope. Look
well, therefore, to this day. Such is the saluta-
ton OF the dawn.-Translated from the sanscrit

ELLSWORTH POWER PLANT.

John II. Graham, of Bangor, Tells
of Plans for Construction,
John R.. Graham, of Bangor, general
manager of the Bar Harbor & Union River
Power Co., has given out an interview in
which he tells of the plans for develop
ment of power plant in Ellsworth. He
says work will begin in the spring.
The plant will be erected on the site of
the old Boston Reduction Co., and will be
hydro-electric one with an initial eapac-
ity of $500. horsepower. Provision for
the extension .of the plant up to 10000
horsepower will be made, and as fast as
there is demand.for power it can easily be
provided for.
The entire electric and power system of
Ellsworth will be rebuilt and facilities for
power in Ellsworth and vicinity will be
arranged. for.r A power transmission line
will be built from Ellsw orth to Mt. Desert
island by means of.-which power for cleo
trical purposes will be transmitted to Bar
Harbor and the other places on that is
land.
A dam sixty feet in height will be built
at the site of the plant and enough stor-
age of water will be provided for to ena BILE
the plant to run at its full capacity at all
stages of water in the river. The dam
will create one of the prettiest inland
lakes in Maine. Mr.. Graham is of the
opinion that it will become great sum
mer residence resort with Ellsworth
people and others who may become at
tracted to it. 1t will be about a mile and
a half in length and half mile wide at
it's widest point.
Two double water wheels will run the
two large generators which will be
generators will be 1000 to 1900 horse
power capacity. The equipment of the
electric plant will be second to
none in thel State of Maine, and it is the
intention of the syndicate which is build
it to have every bit of the equipment the
finest there is made. The contracts for
the electrical equipment have not as yet
been let.
1t is intended to commence work on the
plant in the early spring, and it will be in
readiness for operation by early fall. J. A.
Leonard, of Ellsworth, will be the engin-
eer in charge Of the operation, and it will
be planned and executed under his direc-
tioD.
Mr.. Graham said that the plant will
easily be the best in the State when it is
finally completed. "We have got one of
the best sites in the State" said Mr..
Graham, ''and it is the intention of the
company to develop it as fast as occasion
requires. We can develop 10000 horse
power when it is needed, and can run at
that capacity at all stages of the water"
