Two of the current magazines have
articles on Texas. In the New Eng
land Magazine Frank Putnam writes
on ''San Antonio, Our Gateway to
Mexico" and says in the beginning
that he might as well write of San
Antonio as "The Texas Cosmopolis, -
or "The Mother-in-law of the Army"
or "The American Thermopylae. "
Fifty years ago, when the writer was a
temporary resident of the place, it was
known simply as San Antoine; commu-
nication with the coast, and the outer
world, was only by mule or OK team,
and beyond was wild country infest
ed by Indians, with here and there a
military post. OF the many illustra-
lions only those of the Alamo are ia
miliar; the main plaza is not recogniz-
able, and there was of course no rail
way station, or such pretentious pri-
vate residences as the one shown.
Mexican jakals, one story structures
made of poles driven into the ground,
with matched roofs and dirt floors, were
numerous, and many of the business
buildings were one-storied, built of
adobe or of the Texas soapstone that
cuts easily when first taken out but
hardens with age and exposure to the
weather. We have accepted Mr.. Put
MANS name for this stone, but sup
posed it to be limestone, and it so i'm
pregnates the soil as to turn it to
mortar in wet weather. Mr.. Putnam
says nothing of the San Antonio river,
which rises from springs a short dis
lance above the city and flows tortuous-
ly through it, crossed by numerous
bridges. Its banks used to be lined
with private bath houses and often in
the heart of the city you would see a
fisherman. What to Eat discusses
Texas from the sanitary point of view
and tells how negligence, uncleanliness
and bad foods menace the health of the
Lone Star State. No doubt a like in
dictment could be framed against every
State in the Union, as we are lust at
the beginning of an educational cam
paign on sanitation. What to Eat de-
clares that "the sanitary conditions in
all the cities of Texas are shocking"
but it is not our purpose to enter into
parti culals, and the following quota
ton will suffice: 'San Antonio seems
to have more system in connection
with its governmental affairs, and that
city has more respect for its law and
more Individuality about its atmosphere
than any other city in Texas. How
ever, San Antonio, also, is inexpress-
ably dirty. This is especially true of
the quarters occupied by the Mexicans,
of whom there are a great number in
this unique town, where small pox pre-
walls the year round"

The fire at Pembroke July 4th,
which burned the principal portion Of
the village, with loss of $4,000 or
more, shows the necessity for fire pro-
lection. In towns or cities where there
is much country there is often opposi-
ton to spending money for fire protec-
ton for the village or city. But when
fire like that at Pembroke destroys
so much taxable property, the real
estate of the town must make up the
loss, which in this case must be felt Sc
riously by the farming portion OF the
town. 1t is encouraging to note that
towns throughout the State are taking
fire protection into consideration, and
also the supply of pure water, as that
from the rivers, wells and cisterns is
not always healthful.

ISLESBORO,

1sLEoBORO.
Sunday about one O'Clock we had very
severe thunder shower. The lightning
struck in two places within a radius of a
half mile. The home of F. C. Pendleton
was struck in four places-one chimney,
kitchen window, piazza and cellar-rollway.
In the town hall-the top floor of which is
the new Forester hall, the End floor the
High school room, and the first the regula-
ton towns room-the lightning played hide
and seek at a good rate Twenty two places
were found where it had skipped about.
In the roof hole was made big enough for
two men to get through. The windows
proved especially attractive, owing to the
weights, and it looked as though the light
ming had jumped from one to the other, rip
ping the casing as it went. After thorough
inspection, it will be known whether the
main timbers have been much shattered, as
some fear this may be the case. At the
home previously spoken of all the members
of the family were present, and it was con-
sidered very fortunate that none were
struck. Two boys had just come in from
the piazza and the writer, just inside the
window, saw the handle ripped from an
umbrella that leaned against the easement
from without. The Rev. Mr.. Harmon
from n. II. opened his pastorate at the
Free Mil Baptist church Sunday July 18th.
Rev. Geo. E. Tufts, who is visiting here,
has been officiating in the absence of a
regular pastor. Rev. A. G. Warner is do
ing good work at the End Baptist church
and the attendance is large....A recent ac-
QUESTION to the town library was p vols. Of
bound Harper's Magazines, beginning in
1850, when the magazine started land running
up to '86. The magazines are finely bound,
and through the period of the Civil War
should be especially interesting to some of
our men readers. The gift is in memory Of

Mrs. Thornton Lyford of Bangor is visiting

"Pied Piper of Hamlin" visited us last

was after. This man was in the employ
ment of the National Museum at Washing
ton, D. c., and was hunting up different
varieties of moles from the outlying is
lands. Dark Harbor is in full summer
running order. The "Inn" is open and
most of the cottages taken. The Charles

1t is again reported that the Bluebill
copper mines are to be reopened by

at the present price of "copper" and with
the new methods of reducing ore, they
can be operated at profit. May it
prove to be so.

Ray Thompson is again the editor of

In a notice of the Life of Charles A.
Dana recently ventured the opinion
that he was the greatest journalist
this country has produced. In the
American Magazine for July Horace
Traubel contributes ''Talks With Walt

ed as saying: ''In talking with you the
other day about great editors l forgot
to speak of one man who is maybe the
greatest of all-and who is besides nv
dear friend. 1 mean Dana-Charles

that he supposed Dana, on the whole.
was the imperial master of the craft"
Last Saturday was "Clean City Day"
in Portsmouth, n. H., the day having
been set apart by the city council at the
request of the Improvement Society.
1t is western idea, and the object is to
get every body interested in cleaning up
the city at least once in year. Each
property owner was asked to look after
his house, both front and rear gardens,
and to clear away all long grass, weeds
and rubbish. A Portsmouth, n. H.,
despatch says:
The idea made hit here; never was
the city so spick and span as tonight
when work was stopped. People took
hold ard cleared away all rubbish and
cut away grass and weeds that have
not been molested in years

nation, by many. When the matter was
brought to Gen. Howard's attention he
was 10th to discuss it, preferring to let
his record stand and to allow his coun-
trymen to judge between MI. Schurz
and himself as to his conduct at Chan.
cellorsville. This he can well afford to
do, Gen. Howard summed up the mat
ter in single sentence when he said:
THE trouble with Gen. Schurz was that
he was constitutionally and tempera.
mentally a pessimist and disposed to
settle everybody else's business" To
further abbreviate it may we'll be said
that SchurZ was a crank.

Under the primary system, especially in
the South, Senators are elected by vote
Of the people. The Congressional Diree-
tory for the last three years has con-
tanned the following extract from the
biography of Senator Murphy J. Foster.
Of Louisiana:
When the DemocFatio party Of Louisiana adopted
the plan Of selecting nominees for State Offices by
general primary election. he requested, inasmuch
as the members Of the general assembly TO be 50

he was then filling, and he was probably
the first man in the Senate with a term

had been governor OF his SGa>e and en-
tered the upper branch of Congress ct the
