KING EDWARD AS A SAILOR.

King Edward has always been devot-
ed to the sea. If there is one thing
more than another, after horse, which
excltes the interest of Briton it is a
ship; and the King has always shown
himself typical Englishman in his
love OF the sea. He paid the navy the
compliment of entrusting it with the
education of his two sons, while he
himself is no less enthusiastic than
practical sailor, as we'll as of the iron
clad as OF the yachting type. so hap.
pened that the year 1877, which beheld
the first appearance of the then Prince
of Wales cOlors at Newmarket. also
witnessed his first signal victory as
yachtsman; for in that year, with his
schooner sHildegarde," he won the
coveted Queens Cup at Cowes-open
to members of the Royal Yacht Squad
ron, OF which his royal highness was,
and continued to remain, commodore
until his succession to the crown.
Once more, in 1880, the King secured
the holy grail of the sea with his cutter
"Formosa," while in 1895 and 1897 he
again carried it off with his famous
craft Britannia" which generally en-
abled him to rule the waves wherever
ne flew his burgee from Cannes to
Clyde. No one in all England has done
more than he to encourage recovery of
the Americas" cup, and it may be
remembered how His Majesty's devo-
ton to this great national cause, as
represented by the Shamrock H."
came very near to costing his life.
The King has, however, of late years
rather favored his splendid steamer the

steam yacht is now being built. The

Tree Doctors.

Prof. George E. Stone, who is in
charge of the work, writes as follows
concerning the course in tree culture
given at the Hatch Experiment Station
of the Massachusetts Agricultural Col
lege, Amherst, Mass.
cat the present time we have seven
senior students who are taking work in
course which l term the Physiology
and Pathology of Shade Trees So far
as know this is the only course given
in this country or anywhere else, and
we are turning out quite few young
men who are especially trained to fill
intelligently such positions as city for
esters or helpers in parks.
MANY of our men at the present time
have established firms for the care of
trees, and all of them are meeting with
remarkable success, some of them en-
ploying as many as 200 men. 1 started
this course ten years ago at the request
of students, and have been surprised at
the way in which it has developed."-

sTURGIs DEPUTIES In BANGOR,

They Make a Series of Sudden and Success.
full Raids.
BANGOR, Me-, Aug. 18th. Saturday
night six Sturgis deputies landed in
town and made a series of sudden raids
on the hotels, bars and saloons. The
raid was complete surprise and seiz-
ures were easily made in half a dozen
places before the alarm spre& d through
! the saloon districts. There was intense
excitement, customers were driven out
doors locked and curtains drawn and
stock hurried off to cover.
One OF the first seizures was made at
the Bangor house bar. Other success
full raids were at Washburn's place near
city hall, the place of Maurice Gala
CHER in Central street, Gahigan's saloon
in Exchange street and several other sa-
looms. A number of places were visited
where nothing was found.
In every instance arrests were made
of the persons found in charge. All
were taken to the police station and
later released under b%ilfor appearance
Monday morning.
Saturday night practically every sa-
loon in town was dark and the club
rooms were locked. The places raided
were heavily stocked for the usual Sat
urday night trade, but in most instan-
ces but small amount of liquor was
taken.
"A Sturgis commissioner said Satur-
day night that he had been in town
since Thursday, but as he was an entire
stranger his presence was not suspected
The sending of Sturgis commissioners
to Penobscot county has long been de-
ferred, the reason being given that the
sheriff was enforcing the law as we'll as
could be done.
OF late the city has been practically
wide open, with over so places selling
liquor, many of them at all hours.
