Commercial Course for Teachers.

The directors of the East Maine Sem
mary at Bucksport have their ears to
the ground and are responding to the
call for teachers qualified to teach COM
mercial branches, by offering a combi-
nation course of study designed es-
pecially to train the teacher in the latest
and most successful methods of teach
ing, penmanship, bookkeeping, short
hand, typewriting and associated stud
les. Besides the mastery of the subject
matter of these studies the student is
given the regular course in psychology,
history of education, methods, school
law, and practice teaching under criti-
cism. The demand for commercial
teachers is so much greater than the
supply that better salary is paid for
competent teachers of this sort. This
course will undoubtedly interest many
teachers who are looking for promis-
ing opening.

A VILLAGE STREET.

Where swaying branches wave and meet
In capOpies of green
Above the Old-time village street,
Quiet and cool and clean,
The mellow sunbeams filter slow
And, interwrOught with shade,
Trace on the velvet ward below
A shimmering brOcade.
No sound disturbs the holy hush
That wraps the silent street
Save when at times some thrill of thrush
Drifts TREMENDOUSLY sweet;
Or else. when purple twilight filings
A gauzy veil and thin
wake echoes from the tinkling strings
vi mellow mandolin.
This is the street, serene and sweet,
Down which in days agone
trlpped with bare and buoyant feet
Through dewS of dusk and dawn;
Or romped at play with comrades gay
While SOME long afternoon
Droned slowly, drosily away
Like bees in fields of June.
Old quiet street! the steps that learn
The city's crowded ways
Once more and eagerly will turn
10 scenes of other days,
And sick of ceaseless fray and fret,
Cacophonous and rude,
Will seek while eyes grow dim and wet,
Thy restfuI quietude!

Out in the Fields With God.

The little cares that fretted me,
/ lost them yesterday
Among the fields above the sea,
Among the winds at play;
Among the lowing of the herds,
The rustling of the trees,
Among the singing of the birds,
The humming of the bees.
The foolish fears of what might happen
l cast them all away
Among the clover scented grass,
Among the new-m0wn hay;
Among the husking of the corn,
Where drowSy peoples nod,
Where Ill thoughts die and good are born
Out in the fields with God.

When the officer attempt ed to arrest him Jones put up a des- perate fight, crippling him so badly with a kick on the knee that Kendrick IS still unable to walk.
 The latter maintained his hold how ever, until another policeman arrived, and Jones was carried off to jail. Mir Kendrick was suffering so much with his knee that he failed to tell what offense Jones had committed and the other off cer supposing it to be a case of drunk and disorderly conduct, paid very little attention to his prisoner and he jumped from the buggy and almost made good his escape.

MT. Lawrence said that 1t is not the purpose of the organization to stir up strife in Madison county. since the voters have so recently voted on the whisky question and had taken the first step toward prohibition by the establishment of a dispensary, He expressed the hope that in the next elec- ton the Christian voters will combine and do away with the whisky traffic alto gether. MT. Crumptons addresses were equally interesting from the local view point. He warned the people who are guilty of putting the cup to their brothers lips and said there is no difference wheth- CT 1t is done through dispensary or sa- loon.
