The train will then proceed IT, Bangor, max
ing stops at several of the stations along tne
line, Malta wamkeag, Kingman, Lincoln, En-
field, and possibly Old Town: from bangor et'
it will go to Brewer and down over the
Buck sport branch and then back to BreWer
and then to Ellsworth over the Bar Harbor
branch. From Ellsworth it win take the
Washington county road and will run as
far as Calais, stopping at that place, also at

cally Is days of continuous travelling. The
train will be made up in the best possible
style, there being three cars for the exhibits
and one for the party. The reason given
out for there being SO few stops on the main
line of the road is that there is to be another
big special in the fall and that the later
train will take in the main road stations.
General Manager Evans has expressed him
self as being greatly in favor of the pro-
posed special and will do all in his power
to make the run one of the best.
