Puts Into Rockiand With Ratings
Gone and Staterooms Smashed

Rockland. Me, June THE steamer
City Of Rockland, which was in coils
ion with the City Of Bangor early to-
day, arrived here at 9 \. NJ. four hours
late. Above the guards for a space of
about 40 feet in length the ratings of
all three decks We're carried away and
on the main saloon deck five Of the
stateIn ms were smashed in.
Only one of the rooms was occupied.
The occupants who were two girls be

been visiting in Boston. We're not in

| hurt and there was no panic.
| Capt. W. A. Roix, who was at the
wheel. stated that the collision took
place at 1902 A. NJ. off Half Way
| rock which is between Scguin and
Cape Elizabeth. The steamer was about
20 miles outside Portland. capt Roix
heard the Bangor's whistle when about
three-quarters of a mile distant and
saw her when about a half mile dis
tant. in his judgment.
The fog was thick and there was a
light northeast wind but with the aid
of the full moon he succeeded in max
ing her out and Immediately held the
wheel aport, swinging out. The officer
of the City of Bangor he said. held his
wheel to the Starboard and followed.
The Rockland was sent along at full
speed in order to avert a collision 9th
erwisA the Bangor probably would
have struck her amidships and sunk
her. AS it was she receiving a CHANGING
blow on the port quarter There WAS
not much of jar on the city of Rock
land although Il person on any part
of the steamer would know at once
what had happened.
The Rockland laid by for three hours
and Is minutes and upon being assured
The City of Bangor did not need as
sistarce, she resumed her trip She
had a passenger list of 200. She pro-
cceded up the river after discharging
freight and leaving passengers for this

JAPAN ON WAR NOTES.
Premium Due to Popularity in Man
churia.

WASHINGTON, Junr The Japlnc:;,
Embassy has issued the following state
mcnt regarding circulation of japanese
war currency i'll Man'-nuiia. which has
been :; subject of complaint by business;
interests. When the Japanese war
notes were first issued. their character
and value We're. in some cases. not
understood by the Inhabitants Of
Manchuria. which was quite natural
as they had never known paper cur
rency before. In certain localities th,
circulation Of such notes WAS made
even more difficult owing to opposition
started by some French inhabitants
The result was that in such localities
the war notes stood at Il disc This
condition of affairs completely changed
as their value became known ana their
portability combined with the ease with
which they can be handled made them
a faVnritr currency in Manchuria. Ey
the introduction of these notes Il uni
form standard Of value was in fact
established, and the Inconvenience at
Tenant on the circulation Of varied
currency of different standards were
done away with. The war notes made
transactions both easier ana more de-
finite as IL the standard Of value cn-
plnyed, and thus they have actually.
gwen u new impetus to the growth Of
coInmcrc" III M"nchuria. At the
present date there is hardly ANYONE,
who presents war notes for redemption.
IN the contrary, people bring in silver
yen t" exchange for the war notes, as
the Manclus prefer the notes. Com
plants are even heard that the with
'raWal Of these notes from circulation.
which is gradually taking place is max
ing money scarce. This state Of affairs
explains the fact that they are at n
premium over the gold yen. the rate Of
exchange being now about 10i yen gold
TO 100 yen war notes. Hut if anyone
cares to exchange war notes for
Japanese currency, or, if one desires to
make reinlttanceS to foreign countries
from Manchuria the war notes will b,
freely accepted at the Manchurian
branch of the Yokohama Specie Bank
1t may he added that the actual yolumr
of circulation of those notes is ONLY
about 30,000,000 yen, or ST.. 900 600 ana
plain, common sense may be relied M
on to Judge whether there can be any
question Of Japan's making the slightest
in the way of their redemn-

THE POST DISCOVERY

what is known as starch Indigestion.
That was shown by gas ana all sorts
of stomach and bowel trouble, (somc-
times ending in ;tpptildicitis) brought
on by the undigesucd starch in wheat
oats white bread. cake. buildings. etc.
etc.
Nature ultimately Furnishes anyone
who continually takes some medicine
or drug to smooth over or nullify bad
conditions Of the body. III" only safe
way to cur" such is 10 correct or re

before being eaten. And of Cours"
the safest ana trurSt way to 10 this
would be to initiate nature and avoid
all chemicals or outSi'ir and unnat-
ural things. The body digcStS the
starchy food i'y the following process:
first the moisture or juices "f the
mouth ana stomach, then warmth or
mild heat. which grows or develops
diastase from the grain. Time is also
an important element and when all
work together and the human organs
operate properly the starch is slowly
turned into form of sugar. as it
must be before the blood will absorb
it and carry the needed energy to diff
fercnt parts of the body. OF course
if the body fails to do its work per-
fectly trouble sets in.
so in the making of the famous food

1t can be softcned for people with
weak teeth, but is most valuable to

Theocritus never sang, about love
affair oklahoma Dave" Payne once
had. Payne lived on farm when a
hoy, and his raiment consisted of
lirsey sack with holes for his head
and arms. He was deeply in love with
a neighbor farm girl. One evening he
went over and spanked the girl while
she was milking the COW. She sat
on one side of the COW and he squat
ted on the other, so he could look
her in the eye while she MIXED. Dave
felt his love for the girl growing rap
idly. 1t affected the boy in peculiar
way. Something warm would chase
itself up and down his spinal column.
Ic was a new sensation and in his in
experience he was sure it was love.
Just when the sensation was the
greatest the girl remarked; Dave,
