whom Mrs. Frost acted as housekeeper.
There is no doubt as to its being an
accident, and though an inquest was
held, the verdict was to that effect.
The first experience that Lubec pack
ers of fish products have had with the
pure food regulations is said to have
occurred recently when several boxes of
herring shipped to town in New York
state were returned for noncompliance
with the law. The herring are as nearly
homeless as it h possible to get them,
but the pure food law does not recognize
a near homeless product so il is probable
that the fish will be called by some
other name, for the reason that to take
all the bones out of q herring there
would probably be nothing left to ship
but the name.
Plans have been completed by the War
Department for extensive man9uvrts
this summer by the coast artillery, in
which the militia Of most of the coast
states viii participate. Letters to gov
ernors Of states adjacent to the artillery
districts whore the exercises will be
held have been sent out. Maine has
been invited to send twenty-one COM
paniea Of militia. Governor Cobb has
asked to have the number Of companies
increased to twenty-four. The request
will probably be granted, and IL it 10, the
whole National Guard Of the state will
participate, and the man@uvres will
take the place Of the annual sncamp-
mont.

Rumford Falls. Having been somewhat
acquainted with each other for moro
than half a century, the interview, on
our part at least, was q very pleasant
one. Mr.. Hannaford informed us that
he had oficiated at 6S5 funerals, and if
at home he could tell just how many
marriages he had sOlemnized; several
hundred undoubtedly. Coming down
the railroad the next morning, the
temperature nearly at zero, we saw the

something. Possibly they had got a
hint in some way of the approaching
storm and were consulting in regard to
the best place for shelter.
One object in coming home by the
way of Bryant's Pond was to see the
ruins of Mr.. Mann's clothespin factory,
and saw what was expected, a mass OF
debris and mostly in chaotic condition.
MIR. Mann informed us that he did not
intend to rebuild, and as he has some
$50 cords of timber on the ground, be
will probably ship it to one Of his Other
