The Life of an Actor.

Joseph w. Holland, of the sketch
team OF Holland aud Vernon, appear
ing at the New Phillips this week, is
an interesting parsonage. He started
a quarter of century ago to elm b
the ladder of fame and has had var
led experience in gaining the position
held by him at the present time. He
has appeared with many dramatic
companies and has supported some of
the best known actors and stars in
this line, at that time. He says the
public would not patronize any other
kind of amusement, but the public fan
cy changed in time and farce comedy
took the lead for popular favor, then
it drifted to musical comedy and now
it seems that at the present day ad-
vanced vaudeville has the swing to
popularity and of course Mr.. Holland
has drifted into this style of enter
tainment himself.
Asked as to his choice between the
different kinds Of work in his profess
sion Mr. Holland says he prefers the
present day vaudeville and thinks it
has come to stay. He says a vaude-
Flll9 performer Is always certain Oh
his money and work is easier and less
time is put in and all in all it is a
more satisfactory line of work.
AS to narrow escapes, Mr.. Holland
tells of one time that he was At the
Fifth avenue theatre in New York City
when it was destroyed by fire. He
was reported as being lost but turned
up alive and denied the report. He
was at Oakland, California, at the
time of the awful calamity which be.
fell the Golden Gate city. San Francis.
co. Mr.. Holland was at that time play.
ing an engagement at the Empire the
atre and as Oakland is just across the
river from San Francisco, the awful
devastation could be plainly seen. Mr.
Holland occupied rooms just above the
theatre, and the day before the earth
quake decided to move to private
rooming house where there was a yard
for Red" the dog who appears in the
act, and Little Dick" the trained ban
tam rooster which is also used The
next morning the shock came, and the
Empire was demolished. Mr.. Holland
considers himself very fortunate. He
stayed at Oakland four days and then
left for Chicago.

INSPECTION WORK
OF PAST MONTH
An Unusual Amount Was Done
By Direction of the State
Board of Health.
DRUG STORES IN LIST.
OUT OF slxTY.oNE VISITED NOT
ONE CLASSED AS BAD-FEW
BAKERIES AND CANDY SHOPS
IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.

The report of the state board Of
health that an unusual amount of
work was done in September by the
inspectors working under the direction
of H. E. Barnard. state food and drug
commissioner. In regard to inspec-
tons the report is as follows:
During the month of September IS
cities and towns were visited by the
state food and drug inspectors, who
made 473 sanitary inspections. OF
the Ats places visited % were in excel
lent condition, 100 in good condition.
2O7 were fair only. Al places were
poor and were in bad condition.
"One hundred and forty-five grocer
les were inspected; 5 were excellent, SO
good. 90 fair, Is poor and none were
classed as bad.
"Of the 90 meat markets and
slaughter houses inspected. were in
excellent condition, 81 were in good
condition, 40 were fair, II were poor
and 8 were bad. The bad slaughter
houses were condemned and in the 9TH
er places where unsanitary conditions
existed owners were instructed to do
no more s4aughtering until the inspec-
tors orders for improvements had
been carried out.
Drug Stores Inspected.
'Sixty-one drug stores were inspect
ed, six of which were in excellent con-
dition. thirty-nine good, fifteen fair,
one poor and none were classed as
bad. The sanitary inspection of drug
stores is of far less Importance than
the inspections of other food produc.
ing establishments. While there are
few drug stores SO ideally kept as to
be classed as excellent, yet but few
places are visited where a reasonable
degree of cleanliness does not exist
The usual reason for reporting a drug
store as in poor condition is that ii
general untidiness, unsanitary foun'
tains and dirty prescription case.
| "Of the fifty-seven bakeries and can
dy shops inspected but two were in
excellent condition, twenty-four were
in good condition, twenty-seyen in fair

Decision In Favor Of the
American Ice Co.
In It's Case Against Pittston
and farmingda|e.
Commissioners Say Property Was
Assessed Too high.

Hon. Charles +. Johnson Of Water
Wilt has made his report upon the
facts in the four cases of the Ameri-
can Zee Co.. plaintiff against the town
OF Pitts;On. two cases, and the town
of Farmingdale. two cases. All of the
actions were claims of the plaintiff that
for the years 1903-1904 they had been
over assessed by the town assessors of
the Two towns. The eases were filed
at the October term of the supreme
court 1905. BY agreement of counsel
all Of the cases were to be left to the
decision Of a commissioner to he APP
pointed by the court. Chas. F. john
son was appointed by Justice Emery.
At the time the cases aroused much
interest.
The first case deals with alleged over
taxation of the company's personal
property in Pittston for the year 1909
Commissioner Johnson states that he
held hearings at Augusta. heard the
evidence and arguments. The COM
missioner finds that there was no per-
sonal property at the John Hancock,
Weeks or GOOdwin's Point plants, the
value of the boiler and engine, where
there were any at these plants, being
included in the value Of the real estate
found by him; that at the Smithtown,
the Lodges, the Independent and
Nahumkeag there were tools, but only
O.e witness testified as to their value;
that there was testimony as to the cost
of cutting ice on the Kennebec river
being % cents per ton. which would
make the total value of the ice in the
several plants far exceed the value
placed by the assessors upon the per-
sonal property AT each of them; that
% cents per ton is the value of the ice
stored, or s1100 the value of all ice
stored at the Smithtown houses April

panied with much doubt. The evil
dence is plenary that the plaintiff was
Il servant in the employ of the decedent
during the period for which she seeks
to recover, but that she should permit
her wages to remain unpaid to the al
legged amount of sl3,960, puts i heavy
strain upon the most optimistic
credulity.
As to the second and third PROPOSE
tonS, we are. clearly convinced that the
finding of the jury should be SET aside.
While upon these issues there is a con-.
fiict of testimony, yet. in view of the
Mature of the ease. the fact of a con-
1iict is not decisive. The phrase bur
den of proof like the phrase "ordi-
nary care IS a relative term and must
be considered. not only in the light Of
the conflict Of the evidence, but also
with reference To the subject matter
to which the burden of proof relates.
With respect TO ordinary merchandise
accounts and payments thereof. and Of
caSe.5 involving simple issues of fact,
the rule is we'll eSta bliShed that where
a substantial conflict of testimony APP
pears. the court will disturb the verdict
Of the jury.
There is another class of cases, how
ever. in which the courts hold that the
burden Ct proof must rise above the
mere conflict of testimony and become
clear. convincing and conclusive. to
sustain verdict
The second and third propositions
upon which the plaintiff seeks TO re-
cover $4,000 from the estate of the de-
cedent, clearly falls within this class
OF cases
1t is therefore the opinion of the
court that the plaintiff has failed to
sustain her alleged contract for $20.00n
and is entitled to judgment for
$62C011 the amount found by the jury
in payment for the time she was I'M
questionably servant of the de-
cedent.
We assume that 500 900 Of the verdict
was upon the alleged contract as the
entire amount or nothing was the only
issue upon this phase of the case.
Our conclusion upon the facts makes
it unnecessary t. discuss the eXcep-
tons.
Motion sustained unless the plaintiff
flies q rrmittitur for all of the verdict
above S62G6.1I. within thirty days from
the date Of filing this rescript.

DR.. G.. NJ Twitchell of Auburn.
formerly Of Augusta, is in the city for
a few days on matters of business and
has met many of his old friends. DR..
Twitchell came to Augusta after hav-
ing made trip with E. S. Clifford of
Boston who recently purchased the
Elmwood stock farm at Lewiston
Junction. of which DR.. Twitchell has
been manager for several years past.
and whose friends will be Interested to
learn that he will still continue in the
same capacity under the new owner
ship. The trip was made for the pur-
pose of buying stock. and on Saturday
they bought a herd of Il grade
Holsteins from the well-known Bailey
herd. A visit was also made to the
farm of Pike Bros. at Lubec where a
purchase was made of a thoroughbred
bull that was bred by the Fields Bros.
of Montello. Mass. At the c. L. Jones
farm at Corinna they selected II
registered Holstein cows with records
ranging from 10000 to $4,000 pounds
in ten months. which is probably one
of the best producing herds in New
England. The buildings at E,lmwOod
are being remodeled and the barns
changed over to accommodate more
cows. and it is Mr.. Gifford's intention
to increase the herd to 100. DR..
Twitchell is also picking up a number
Of registered chester sows and it is his
purpose to bring to market yearly at
least 200 pigs. He states that Mr..
Clifford will soon go to France for the
purpose of securing a Percheron
stallion for the use of the farmers in
the central section Of the State, and
will buy as good one as can be found
in Perche or Normandy
