Dan Cupid.

A pleasant feature of the congrcs
s1onal parties that make journeys
abroad is the fact that Dan Cupid
seems always to be a passenger. He
went to the Philippines, and three
matches resulted. Mr. Longworth, of
Ohio; Mr.. Cochran, of New York, and
Mr.. Sherley, of Kentucky all surren
dered to influences insuring their hap
piness for life. And now the steamer
Bluecher is no sooner locked on her
return with the Cannon party from
the West Indies than the engagement
of two of the company is announced.
What is it that makes love the pre-
vailing and compelling topic at such
times? asks the Washington Star.
Does a discussion of Uncle Sans new
responsibilities lead to it? Or does the
delightful Imprisonment on shipboard
explain it? Whatever the explanation,
the fact exists, and it may result in
making such trips exceedingly popu-
lar. The curiosity of congress as to
our outlying possessions may come to
overshadow everything else.

Verona, Me.-The intensely Yankee
town of Verona, with it's intensely
italian name, was born out of spite
Long before the English fleet sailed
up the PenObscot river in the autumn
of 1914 and laid Bangor under heavy
tribute, the present town was known
as Orphans Island, and had been sur
veyed and mapped out as the future
metropolis of New England
long bridge costing many thou
sands of dollars, was built to connect
the island with Bucksport and paid
for from the sales of few choice
lots near the center of the unborn
city.
The Wetmores and Heaths and
Bowdoins and Bridgeses, who we're
interested in the plan looked down on
Old John Jacob Astor as an amateur
in finance, and thought the rich men
at Boston were beggars.
Later on ii was discovered that the
drawing of expensive maps and the
making of elaborate plans would not
insure an immediate sale of real es
tate, The promoters ran short of
money and became plunged in debt.

IN repairing the great bridge
When their prayers were not grant
ed, out of spite they asked the legis-
lature for town charter, and were
made joyful when the new town of
Verona was born.
The decline of weir fishing and
shlpbuilding nearly depopulated the
island after the civil war, but recovery
has followed slowly through close at
tention to agriculture
Though the town is seven miles
long and nearly three miles wide at it's

The only reason given for the position

The original applications made by the

and provided for taking fourteen addi-

the state engineer by the property owners
of the canyon, and the business people of
Ogden. That official discovered that the
applications did not show the specific
point where the pump was to be placed
and for this reason the applications were
returned for correction.

the additional rights to work equally as
hard against any other persons who might
make similar applications in the future.
