Press Clippings
! What the Other Papers are Doing and :
z Saying for tho State and the People. :
Rights of Husband and Wife,

The State Federation of Women's
clubs has prepared a bill for an act
defining the rights Of husband and
wife. 1t is understood the bill will
be fathered by Senator Crumrine oil
Albany county. 1t has been endor'
sed by the federation and all those
who read it pronounce it a broad,
comprehensive, fair measure. 1t
brings into one act many laws that
are now incongruous and uncertain,
defines more definitely the rights of
of both husband and wife and gives
the wife more rights than under the
present laws.
Under the bill in question the wife
would be entitled to all the estate of
the husband in case no children were
left. Under the present law the wife
is entitled to three. fourth in such case
and onehalf in case there are children.
II also provides Tor the manner in
which the separate estate of the hus-
band and wife may be proved and in
every way bears the hallmark of fair
ness TO both husband and wife, as
we'll as to relatives.
The bill ought to become a law

REPRESENTATIVE Winkleman's mea

Representative Winkleman's meas.
ure for a railroad commission, which
is to sit monthly to hear complaints
concerning discrimination in regard
to rates, etc, seems "A move in the
right direction. We call to mind a
time in the history of the Union Pa
cific when such a commission would
have been a good thing and there is
no reason why it would not be a mood
thing under existing circumstan ces

The result of the Wyoming Trib-
une's canvass of Wyoming's banks
shows an almost unanimous senti-
ment in favor of a depositary law. 1t
goes without saying that the people
are all in favor of such a law, and
that being the case, the way seems
clear for the Legislature to go ahead
and frame a measure that will place
Wyoming in line with other states on
that important question.

Suicide at Pittsfeld.

The citizens of Pittsfleld were
shocked Friday morning to learn that
Thomas Holway, a well-known and
respected citizen of the town, who.
with his wife, has made his home with
his daughter, Mrs. George Frost and
family, in the west part of the town
for the past six years, committed sui
eide Thursday by hanging, using a
one-half inch rope.
A shock which Mr.. Holway suffered
in August and which caused him to
be Respondent at times, is ascribed as
being the cause of the deed. On
Thursday he seemed as we'll as usual,
if not in better spirits, and after din
ner he left the house and his daughter
thinking he had gone to some neigh
bors, the family was not alarmed until
the latter part of the afternoon, when
he did not return, Search was imme :
diately instigated and about 7 O'Clock
in the evening Mrs. Frost, together
with Walter Fairbrother, neighbor,
found his lifeless body hanging to a
beam in an old unused sheep shed,
which was in an orchard located a
short distance from the house. A
physician was summoned. who found
that life had been extinct few hours.
The deceased was a native of Fair
field. He had been a resident of
Pittsfiel0 the past 55 years. He fol-
lowed farming as business, in which
he was successful.
His age was 79 years, 10 months, q
days. He was a member of the Pitts
field Grange. Besides the widow,
Emily (CampbelD, two daughters,
Mrs. Frost and Mrs. Henry Whitman
of this town and three brothers, Ansel
of Skowhegan, Leonard of Norridge-
wock and Charles of Waterville sur
vive, all of whom have the sympathy
of large circle of friends.

A Delightful Evening.

People who attended the Corn Fes-
tiyal and Supper al the First Baptist
Church, last Friday evening, had a
delightful time. Supper was served
on the European plan. Mesdames
Shattuck and Leavitt served hulled
corn and milk, mush and milk, and
corn bread and butter. Mesdemoi-
senes Mareton and Wyman served
cake. Mesdames Donaldson u d
Thompson poured tea. Masters
Marble and Murray sold the popcorn
in its various forms.
The entertainment was one Of great
interest and merit. The solos OF Mrs.
Philo Steward, Mrs. Florence Dun
nington, Miss Florence Wyman, Mr..
Lees Hall, Mr.. J. Harvey White, and
Mr. Carroll Goodwin were received
with great applause. Mrs. Minnie L.
Murray gave very enjoyable reading
in her usual attractive manner.
The supper and entertainment were
in charge of the entertainment COM
mittee of the Ladies Aid Of the First
Baptist Church: >Irs. Marble, Mrs.
Wallace Blunt, Mrs. Nolin, being
members of the committee.

What Maine is Doing for Homeless
Children.

This will be one of the most inter
esting topics at the Maine State Con-
ference of Charities and Corrections
to be held in Auburn October, 81 and
%. Rev. G. w. Hinckley, director of
the Good Will farm, was one of the
pioneers of such work in Maine and
has the confidence of all the people of
this State, and the work of the school
is known far beyond the limits of the
State. Mr.. Hinckley will open the
discussion on Child Saving Work
Mrs. G. B. McGregor, president of the
Home for Friendless Boys, has some
of her boys in nearly every section of
the State of Maine, some of them en-
gagged in business for themselves and
grateful to her and to her institution
for kindly help they once found with
her. Mrs. McGregor will tell how she
has been able to find her homes for
the bows and how she Is able to tell
whether the home is suitable for the
boy. Few people have given more
time to the work than Mrs. McGregor.
Mr.. w. G. Hawes, superintendent OF
the Maine children's Home Society,
will speak on keeping in touch with
children placed in private homes.
This is a difficult and delicate task
and it will be extremely interesting
to know the problems which arise
in adjusting the children to the homes
found for them so that both the fam
lilies and the children shall be happy
in their life together.
All are invited to attend the con-
ference. Reduced rates have been
granted by the railroads.

Schoolroom Ventilation.

Whatever may be the case with
other Maine towns it seems that the
buildings used for school purposes in
the town of Skowhegan are well sup
piled with fresh air. The Lincoln and
Garfield buildings on Leavitt street
and the High School building on the
Island are fitted with system OF
forced draft which supplies 900 cubic
feet per minute for every student in
each room. The Park and Academy
buildings could be improved as to
ventilation but the ventilating radi-
ators in the walls make it possible,
with due attention to the windows to
provide a plentiful amount of fresh
air
The subject of ventilation is a most
important one and one that received
all too little attention until within re-
cent years. Those who have the care
of public buildings can do much to
keep the rooms in their charge
wholesome, by throwing doors and
windows wide open, especially on
sunny days, when the rooms are not
In use. The utmost care should be
taken with schoolrooms where young
people are expected to apply them
selves to their books for FIVE days in
the week. 1t is gratifying to be as
sured that Skowhegan school build
ings are properly equipped in this re-
spect and properly looked after.

A New Apple House.

Sheldon Fl. Beal has nearly COM
pleted building on his farm In the
Hilton Hill neighborhood, especially
for the storing and packing of apples.
This Is the first building Of the kind
to be put up in this county and is in
every way up to date for the the pur-
pose for which it is intended. The
dimensions are 80 by 81 feet, with one
story above the ground. 1t has a
basement Of the same size, seven feet
in depth, with walls Of split stone laid
in cement. A driveway seven feet
wide extends the full length Of the
basement SO that a team from the
orchards may be driven in at one end
and out at the other. On either side
Of this driveway are bins for the
winter fruit with a storage capacity
Of 400 barrels. The fall apples.
which have to be shipped 70 market
early will be stored in bins on the
ground floor. A part of this floor
also is used for setting the barrels in
which the fruit is packed.
Mr. Beal went to Winthrop last
week and purchased an outfit for bar
rel making and eooperage stock for
seven hundred barrels. He PURPOSES
TO make all his own barrels in the
future. His orchards now have
normal yield Of seven or eight hun
dred barrels and he has several young
orchards which will come into bear
ing within the next few years which
will bring his annual Weld up to
twelve or fourteen hundred barrels.

Keith's Boston Theater.

One of the most notable events in
the history of vaudeville in Boston,
is due to occur next Monday. 1t is
nothing less than the initial appear
ance at Keith's Theatre of the dis
tinguished actress, Nance O'Neil.
Supported by company headed by
Mckee Rankin, Miss O'Neil is to ap-
pear in a condensed version of "The
Jewess", with the famous curse scene
included in the action. Miss O'NeiPs
engagement is for one week only.
One of the most novel comedy acts
of the season will occupy prominent
place on the bill-Robert Daley and
company in sketch depicting hap
penings on q trolley car, with Mr..
Daley as the conductor and the mem
bers of his company as passengers.
Many very funny character types are
introduced.

Maine Teachers.

E. L. Palmer of Dexter, secretary
of the Maine State Teachers associa-
tion, was in Bangor, Monday. He
called on Superintendent of Schools
Charles E. Tilton and Prescott Keyes,
principal of the grammar schools, to
talk over arrangements for the COM
ing convention of school teachers
from all over the State which is to be
held in Bangor "a, 25 and 26.
According to Mr.. Palmer the pros
poets for the convention are the
brightest and it promises to be the
largest and most successful ever held
in the State. There will be about
1000 of Maine's teachers present and
some of the most prominent educa-
tors in the country.
To the various departments of
school work in the State there is to be
a great deal of important space in the
program of the proceedings of the
sessions devoted and much of inter
est and value to the educators of
Maine will be heard.
President Charles s. Sewell of Fair
field, of the department of rural
schools, is to deliver an important pa
per on the progress of his depart
ment, part of the work that is of the
utmost Importance and recognized TO
be one of the principal features in the
school system of a state.
Under this same head Superinten-
dent w. II. Knowlton of the Vassal-
bore schools is to speak on the needs
OF the rural schools in Maine and his
paper will contain great deal of val
liable information along this line.
A discussion will be opened by N.
A. Luce of Vassalboro, former State
superintendent of schools, on the
question of the transportation of
pupils to and from the schools, a
question that is called to the atten-
tion of the school authorities of the
State each year.
J. A. Smith, principal of the Au-
burn grammar school, is to have some
of the strongest superintendents of
the schools of the various cities IN the
State to discuss the industrial situa-
tion and grading of the grammar
schools, and Prof. Charles Davidson
of the University of Maine will deliv-
er an address on some of the defects
in the present system of grading and
what is being done to remedy them.
The kindergarten department will
have for it's principal speaker Miss
Patty S. Hill of Columbia university.
She is to take up the subject of plays
and games in school work. Miss Hill
is considered the greatest kindergar-
tener in America and represents all
that is latest and best in that import
ant branch of school work.
