Oldest Shin Afoat .

The De Tvende Brodre is her name, and
if she is not she ought TO be the Oldest
ship at present in commission on four
oceans. Only few weeks ago tins old
sailing ship whose keel was laid at Mars
tai, Prussia, in 1885, arrived in Swedish
waters. and in February of next year she
will celebrate her 121st birthday.
Not only is the De Tvende Brodre in a
class by herself in point of age, but she is
just as interesting so far as the history of
her shippers is concsrned. During all the
years she has been on the seas she has
had but five captains, and every one of
these shippers belong to the same family.
The first skipper navigated the vessel
for twerty-nine years, the second twenty
two years, the third twenty years, the
fourth thirty-two years and the present
skipper has been seventeen years in COM
mand.

The Size of the sun.

The sun, provided we measure only
the disk seen with the smoked glass, is
$4,000 miles in diameter-i. e., los
earths could be comfortably ranged
side by side across the disk. To cover
the surface would require many thou
sands. To fill the interior we should
need 100000 On u smaller scale we
might represent the sun by ball two
feet in diameter and the earth by a
good sized grain of shot. Let the sun
be followed out, then place the earth
at its center and let the moon revolve
about it at its real distance of 100000
miles. There would yet remain nearly
100000 miles of space between the
moons orbit and the inclosing shell Of
the sun. Indeed to journey from one
side of the sun to the other, through
the center, would take one of our swift
express trains nearly two and a half
years. So vast globe must be heavy.
SlEce its density is only one-quarter
that of the earth it only weighs as
much as $50 900 earths, or two octil-
lions of tons. The attraction of gravity
On its surface would cause u man
whose weight was $50 pounds to weigh
two tons.

A representative from New England
state says that for a number of years he
has been in the habit OF fishing with an
old fellow famous as a guide in the
''woods". A short while ago he hunted
him up, with the intention Of arranging
for trip. He found the old fellow sit
ting dejectedly on barrel.
"Hello, Uncle Bill; what's the trouble9'

"Jest got in from a trip with a city

The speech OF Secretary Root at Utica,
N. Y, last week should put an ever
lasting quietus on any claims of Will
liam r. Hearst to be considered as
stan ding in the same class and fighting
for the same principles with President
Roosevelt. There was more than usual
interest in this speech because it was
known that Secretary Root went to
New York especially as the mouthpiece
of the President, and it was kno N
that anything he had to say in con-
nection with the New York campaign
could be taken as coming direct from
the White House. He read the now
notorious editorial from Mr.. Hearst's
paper which had called for the assasi
nation OF President Mckinley not
long prior to the actual event. With
bitterness that was fully justified by
the occasion, he declared that this
publication undoubtedly swayed the
weak mind of Czolgosz when he fred
the fatal shot, and unhe sitatingly he
characterized Mr.. Hearst as NOT
guiltless for this cowardly murder.

The ''smoke" which so long has
been lowering above Shiloh, the
Kingdom of the Holy Ghost and Us
society in Maine, is likely soon to be
penetrated by the State authorities in
search of possible fire. For the past
few years many stories of inhuman
and cruel treatment to which inmates
of the colony have been subjected
have come from Shiloh, but the few
cases which have come to the courts,
while not allaying doubts, have not
resulted in conviction of the alleged
perpetrators of the cruelties. One Of
the most recent moves toward the in
vestigation of Shiloh is a petition to
Gov. Cobb, signed by the clergymen
and some of the leading citizens Of
Portland asking him to take measures
to ascertain the true condition of af.
fairs at Shiloh. Unfortunately it APP
pears that there is no law on the
statute books at present by which the
matter can be reached, but it is prob
able that the next legislature will be
called upon for special legislation in
the matter.

Gift to City Library

Again has the city of Ellsworth &C.
Ession for gratitude to one Of it's
ssns, and again it is the city library
which is selected as the agency for
fisbursing to the people of Ellsworth
generally the benefits of the gener-
tsisy shown.
Ellsworth has for years had liz
trary of which any city of it's size
insight we'll be proud. As a reference
Ibsary, it is surpassed by few, if any,
Hah the same number of volumes.
Through the generosity of George
n Black, few years ago, the library
auss given home of historical inter-
Fss, delightfully."- located. This was
supplemented few years later by a
E1s of zachariah JellisoD, of Brock

If paid up life insurance policy of
5000, for the benefit of the library.
A need of the library which has
Ing been felt is the money for the
purchase of new books. the annual
appropriation for that purpose being
necessarily small. Now, however,
aaii another son of Ellsworth, ex-
mayor John DeLaittre, of Mime
Dolis, makes to the library a gift OF
. fund of $4,000, which will make
sRaiianle $3.50 annually for new books.
There is no half-heartedness in the
gratitude of the people of Ellsworth
isr this gift. Thank God for the
Racks, the Jellisons and the De-
aaittres. Would there were more

fore it is well to give to the public some
reliable information. The coming winter
will be one Of deep SHOWS. The first snow
sufficient to track cat was on Oct. 81.
The moon at that time was fourteen days
old, and the storm lasted thirty hours;
therefore there will be fourteen snow
storms of an average duration Of thirty
hours. The first snow did not go of with
rain, nor will the others. The open
weather prophets base their prophecies
on the fallacy that old maids are wearing
peekaboo waists. Another storm Of the

Hancock County is All Right.

The silly story is going the rounds
ri the Maine newspapers that Han
ock county, owing to the loss of lie
Dr fnes, is embarrassed for funds;
a,at the situation is serious; that the
soncty tax must be increased, bu,
mat this cannot be done without au-
7norization from the legislature.
That such a story should be con-
1oeted at all is absurd enough, but
mat is should be taken seriously, and
s~..erly discussed by some of our con.
smporaries is positively ludicrous.
Is Is true that the liquor fines paid
;ss.c :hc county treasury are less thar
ftey have been; that was to be ex-
lected under regime of strict en-
Drcement; the cost of enforceme nj
las bean Increased; that, too, was to
De expected, and nobody is kicking
bout it.
No "appeap' is to be made to the
legislature by the county to help it out
At it's alleged embarrassment. 1t is
imply able to meet it's liabilities, as
= always has been, and always will be.
Our democratic contemporary, in
commenting on this fake, remarks:
ut now transpires that the above piece [re-
printed IN FULL was originally written in
lsworth in the Office of one of the organs of
he republican party in this county"
Speaking for ourselves, we may say
bat no such rot ever emanated from
sG,is off Q nor from anyone connected
With it; and we do not believe that
shy other newspaper in this county is
for it.
