MONROE.

MONROE.
There is some excitement over the propo-
sition to build dam that will damage
farmers in the north part of the town. The
surveyors have surveyed the fowage and
placed their stakes. 1t takes some of the
best intervales in that part Of the town. 1t
also flows large number of acres of wood
land, and takes in all of what is known as
Jones' bog. This piece of land cuts a large
amount of hay. Another party is survey
ing on what is called the Marsh stream,
running from Brooks to Frankfort marsh.
This dam will flow more valuable land than
the one cited above, and this takes in a num-
Dor of whole farms. An agent of the tele
phone company is trying to get subscribers
for farmers line to begin at Swanville
and connect with the line to Monroe from
Winterport, also line to follow the road
at Monroe. The price is to be $1s the first
year. A number have subscribed and the
agent thinks the line is assured.

DEXTER DOINGS.
Masons to Attend Services Sunday
M. C.. Station Grounds Improved.

Dexter. Me-, June 21.-(SpeciaD.-
A great transformation is peihs
wrought around the grounds OF the
Maine Central station at this place.
What has for years been great I'M
slightly barren station yard is to be
made into attractive grounds with
lawns driyeways and perhaps flower
beds. The first move was made when
the section crew commenced TO dig
the many rocks from the yard several
weeks ago. The teamsters were pleas
ed to see even this being done. Through
the efforts of someone the work is be-
ing carried further much to the salts
faction of Dexter people to whom the
station yard has long been an eyesore.
The local Masons are anticipating
with pleasure the observance Of ST.
Johns day Sunday at the Congrega-
tional church, Spring street. All Ma
sons are requested to meet in Masonic
hall and they will march in a body to
the Congregational church, where the
sermon will be delivered by Rev. II. A.
Lincoln the new pastor of the church.
The members of the local Eastern
Star will also participate in the OBJ
servance. Special music will be fur
nshed at the church.
Charles F.. Hight. who has been at
West Athens looking for real estate
for past few weeks, arrived home to-
day.
NJ. F. Herring of Maiden, Mass. has
presented the ElkinstOwn Club with a

r. II. Lebree, who has been in the

Josed of his business to Edwin j. Pea

be Rev /. Il. Mower of Waterville.
