The State Militia.

The enrolment blanks which were sent
out from the office of the adjutant general
to the different city and town clerks of the
State for the purpose of aScertaining the
number of citizens between the ages Of Is

liable to military duty in 1903 was 1Ol,969,
while that of 1905 was 104, 9l5, a gain of 3046.

in Cum berland county, and the smallest, L.,
in Knox county. The greatest loss, 5s3, was
in York county. and the smallest, %, in

An Historic House.

One of the famous old houses in W est
ern Hancock county is the Bray house
at West Brooksville, built 115 years
ago, and now owned and occupied by
Sewall D. Tapley. In this house was
held the first town meeting in Brooks
vile, after it's incorporation as the 222d
town in Maine, June 10, 1917. The
meeting was held Monday, Nov. 10,
1917, and the officers elected were ::
Roger Lawrence, Joseph I. Parker and
Elisha Smith, selectmen; Benjamin
Redman and David WATSON, constables;
Thomas WATSON. town clerk. The old
house is in a good state of preservation,
and bids fair to stand for several future
generations as one of the finest speci-
mems of the old-time New England
architecture of the more pretentious
kind.

that those little motherless children should

they can leave things at the Advocate Office

One day last week William Work, who
owns nice farm about two miles from the
village on the East Jackson road, came to
the village, leaving at home his hired man
and two small children. During the absence
of Mr.. Work the hired man, who was in the
field at work, hearing the dog making a
loud cutlery, ran to ascertain the cause, and
found the house filed with smoke and all
afire inside. He got the children out and
saved few chairs, but everything else was
consumed. So when Mr.. Work returned
from the village he found his nice home TO-

on the house or contents and it leaves Mr..
Work in hard circumstances. He has four

All the errors are not made by news
paper men, who can plead in extenua-
@ion of occasional lapses that they
write under the spur. The magazinists
are sometimes caught mapping. In the
May number of Recreation is an article,
-ipely illustrated, entitled "Glimpses
of Newfoundland, The Story of a Trip
Through the Country of the Bluenoses,"
che opening paragraphs of which dis
gcuss the question of buenoses vs. car
mine noses. Now Newfoundland is
not the country of the bluenoses. That
distinction belongs to Nova Scotia
alone How the name originated is
not material. 1t was first fixed in our
memory by the writings of ..'Sam
slick Judge Haliburtom and by Fred
= CoZzens entertaining book, Acadia;
or a Sojourn Among the Bluenoses,"
published in 1858. 1t had previously
appeared serially in the Knickerbocker
Magazine. In the same issue OF
Recreation anative of Maine, writing of
a vacation in this State, tells of spend
ing three days with his brother and his
wife, who were camping on the shore
of Penobscot Bay, near Belfast" He
speaks of sitting later in the school
room of a college thinking over chose
three days on the shore of the beauti-
full Penobscot Bay, digging clans, fish
ing off that jutting point of rocks for
the cunners and tomcods or strolling
along the beach gazing at the blue of
the White Islands in the distance"
That Maine man certainly needs a
chart. The White Islands are not
visible from any point within three
miles of Belfast, or within twenty
miles.

That is the best, because the most

that are opposed. We should not then
