Action ON Power Lfae Petition De-
ferred state Street Cemetery.
A recess meeting Of the city government
was held Thursday evening. The fnil
board was present. The principal object
Of the meeting was for further b: airing
and decision on petition to erect q power
transmission line on the old Bangor road
but this matter did not come before the
board, being deferred pending negotia
tions for private right Of way along the
Maine Central railroad
Hev. r. B. Mathews, pastor Of the Con-
gregatioral church; appeared before the
board in relation to improvements at the
cemetery back Of the church. Mr.
Mathews, who instituted the movement
Tor improving the cemetery, and by pri-
vste subscription raised fund to begin
the work, discovered that the cemetery
was the property Of the city.
The lot was decided to the inhabitants Of
Ellsworth by Melatiah Jordan in 1918, for
perpetual maintenance as : cemetery and
for no other use. The city's ownership
had been forgotten until the fact was
brought to light by Mr.. Mathews. A copy
oI tne oeeI was supmibteu W INC diuSl-
men.
Mr.. Mathews spoke OF the need for inn
provement, and IN view Of the city's re-
sponsibility by ownership, the aldermen
voted to appropriate sum not exceed
ing 500 from the contingent fund for the
purpose Of properly fencing the cemetery,
the work to be done under the direrfior
Of two members OF the city government,
acting with Mr.. Mathews. Mayor Greely
and Alderman Stuart will 90 act.
The board devoted the remainder of the
evening to revising the jury list. Many
names were removed from the box boz
cause Of age limitation or death, and new
names were put in. bringing the number
up to the quota eighty-fve.

New York Judge Says Articles Of
Incorporation Are Not in
Proper Form.

NEW YORK, April 22.-The application
OF Bella Tokaki and others of this city for
a certificate of incorporation Of the Ma
tional Roosevelt league was denied today
by Justice Bischoff In the supreme court
The principal object of the proposed or
ganization was Ito aid I'm securing by all
parties and citizens Of all parties irrespec-
tive Of political Affiliations, the nomination
of Theodore Roosevelt to succeed himself
as president Of the United States"
The petition declares that present political
parties and a large number Of public men,
Notwithstanding their public professions,
are entirely too much attached TO govern
ing the people for party and by a party
or OF a class for a class and by a class
1t was to this latter portion OF the pc
tition that Justice Bischoff took exception.
He took the ground that while these al
legations may be proper subject for de-
bate they are not proper when placed in
formal articles Of Incorporation. He there
fore refused to affix his signature to the
document until the improper matter shall
have been eliminated.

"A beefs heart is an economical dish
when properly cooked. In selecting them
those with much clear lively fat around
the top are the best Calves hearts are
smaller. more tender. but not as juicy.
They should be stuffed and roasted or
praised
For breakfast both tripe and liver are
economical. Calls liver Is as a rule more
tender than that Of an older animal though
carefully selected and prepared beef liver
is very good eating. When buying care
should be taken to see that the color is
yellowish red, clear and bright.
I'm selecting tripe choose that which is
thick, white and fat. The honeycomb part
is the best.

fine soup. Three joints will be sufficient for

UncOmplimentRry Things Said of Her
in Many Languages.
The treatment that womankind receives
in the proverbs Of various peoples forms
the subject of an article by l.. p. Floberl
in the Paris Gauois. On the whole, the
array lie far from complimentary.
Among the Spanish maxims one Of thu
gentlest is Women and mules obey better
when caressed than coerced." Another IL
THE man wins much who loses his wife"
Here are a few more:
Man is tow; woman is fire and the devil
blows the bellows.
The tears of women are worth much,
though they cost little.
The fox is cunning, but the woman who
loves knows far more than he.
The proverbs OF the Arabs place a very
low value on women. Here are some sam
pies:
The beauty of man is in his spirit; the
spirit of woman is in her beauty.
Always consult your wife, but do as you
please.
When you want to get square with a man,
give him a handsome wife; when you want
revenge on a woman. give her a handsome
husband.
The Hlndoos are not much more respect.
Iul than the ARABS. Ihey say:
The coQuette is like your shadow; chase
her and she fees from you, Zee from her
and she chases you.
Do you want to test the hneness of goldi
Use acid. The strength of an ox2 Beat it.

thoughts Of a woman7 There's no way
Next comes the cynical Chinaman with q

a woman is OF quicksilver and her heart Is
Of wax.
The Persian says:
When you go to war. say a prayer; when
you go to sea. say two prayers: when you
get married, pray all the time
To a question, What Is a woman7' the
Turk answers. "A prisoner" the Albanian.
"a Blave;" the Servian, "a servant the
Bulgarian, "a companion" the Greek, "a
queen"
The gallant French are among the most
brutal In their folk sayings about women
Where there are dogs" they say, there
are fieas; where there Ia bread, there are
, mice; whore there's a woman, there's the
devil" Another current saying L. women
and fools never forgive" Also:
A woman laughs when she can and weeps
when she Wills.
What the devil can't DO. woman accom-
plishes.
The man who beats his wife is like a man
who beats bag Of flour. An that's good
flies away; what's left is not worth having.
Man can rely on the fidelity OF his dog to
the last breath; OF woman to the next
temptation.
He who believes his wife deceives himself.
He who doubts her is deceived all the same.
Man has two good days in his life, the
one on which he takes and the one ON
which ne loses a wife.
