Big PUBLISHING STUNT"

With the possible exception of one,
no other book published runs into
such large editions as the telephone
directory. Neither does any other
represent the same amount of inces-
sent labor, and none is more accurate.
Though mistakes are liable to creep
into every human production in spite
of every precaution, the telephone
directory is acknowledged to be more
free from them than any other list of
names compiled.
The telephone directory is one of
the most important adjuncts to good
telephone service. AS the telephone
system grew, not only in the number
of people who made use Of it but in
the number of times each person en-
ployed it, obviously it became i'm
possible for operators to keep the run
of subscribers by name. To attempt
to do SO would not only make all sorts
OF chances for errors, but would seri-
ously reduce the quickness CT the SER
vice.
So, for the convenience of the large
body of telephone users-there are a
quarter of million regular subscrib-
ers alone now in the four northern
New England states-and for the sake
of uniformly good service, the New
England company was compelled sew
eral years ago to establish the prac-
tice among it's operators that they
should not undertake to do their work
by name, 80 to speak, but must be
told the number of the telephone with
which connection was wanted.
With 40, 900 telephones added to the
New England system each year, it is
more necessary all the time that users

WOMAN AND THE SCHOOLS.
Edward Everett Hale Tells the Coco
Women Can Do,

Edward Everett Hale Tells the Good
| Women Can Do.
Edward Everett Hale in an editorial in
Woman's Home Companion, describes
what women can do about good govern
| ment. The venerable publicist believes
that women should take more interest in
school affairs, and says on this subject:
SIN March Woman's Home Companion
l had good deal to say about what
women can do in the penitentiaries and
poorhouses, and shall refer to this sort
OF work again. Here and now l want to
talk OF what women can do and ought to
do in the public schools. / do not care
so much whether they be chosen on the
school committee, as they are in many
states, or whether they act as what the
| lawyers would call amicce euriae, which
| means friends Of the court
"My sister Lucretia, well known to many
Of the readers Of these lines, was one OF
| the first women ever chosen to the school
committee in Boston. Before she had
| been in Office three months she told me
| that any intelligent man who knew the
sort of things which were brought to her
for advice by teachers and by mothers
would say that the presence of one or
more women in a school committee of a
large city was absolutely necessary. If
you think Of it, forty different exigencies
might arise in a months time where the
special suggestion Of an intelligent
woman should be desirable.

the charge OF the different rooms in the
public schools. They are really what in
the East we call ministers at large. My
| friend, Miss Maria Symonds, would know,
il boy had no necktie or ragged neck
| tie, that there was a careless mother at
home, or that there was no mother there,
and in the latter case she would supply
| the vacancy in her kind care and oversight

Christian church was showing that it

Fire at Biddeford last week in the
building occupie1 by H. P. Atkinson &
Son, furniture dealers, and H. L. Merrill,
confectioner, caused $4,000 damage.
Friday evening the house OF Mrs. Eliza
Morgan, at Burnhsm, was destroyed by
fire. An imbecile son, Frank, aged about
thirty-fve years, perished in the flames.
1t is announced that the Maine Central
railroad will soon build q new bridge
across the Penobscot river at Bangor,
which will do away with the necessity OF
backing trains from the Mt. Desert and
Bucksport branches into the station.
The Casino at Underwood Spring park,
Portland, together with the open-air
theatre, was burned last Wednesday
afternoon. The fire caught in the upper
story OF the Casino, how or from what
cause is not known. Loss $4,000; COW
cred by insurance.
Horace B. Cony, one Of Augustus most
respected citizens, died Friday after an
illness OF little more than week, due to
heat prostration. Mr.. Cony went to Bath
with the members Of Canton Augusta
Patriarchs Militant, TO participate in the
parade, and during the march fell out and
was taken to the hospital, being later
brought home. Mr.. Cony was born in
Augusta January 8, 1887. He had been a
resident Of Augusta throughout his long
life, and few men living knew more about
the history and growth OF the city than
did he.
Seventeen summer hotels, sixty cot
tages and q score Of buildings, occupied
by stores, were burned Thursday night in a
fire which swept the eastern section oil
Old Orchard along the shore, causing q
loss estimated at 81 5000 All the build
iugs were Of wooden construction and the
flames spread with remarkable swiftness
reducing to ashes a section OF half hum
dred acres within three hours. Two men
were killed by the explosion of gasolene
tank. The burned area extends from Old
| Orchard avenue eastward, between MILL
ken street and the beach, for nearly half q
mile, and in it were included some of the
finest private residences OF this popular
resort. The fire started in the annex OF
the Olympia house, on Milliken street,
and had gained such Roadway when dis
covered that the Old Orchard fire depart
ment, consisting only OF small steamer
and hose wagon, manned by volunteer
force, was unable to stay its progress.

of the service shall, to save their own
time and "Centrars", look numbers
up before they call the operator. All
told, upwards of million copies of
the New England company's different
directories are distributed every
twelve months. The records of new
subscribers, OF removals, Of changes
of number and all the her details
that affect the makeup of the direc-
tory are corrected each day in every
one OF the 4sS exchanges in the sys-
tenn, and once in so often these cor
rections are forwarded to the cata-
logue department, as it is called,
where they. are transferred to proof
sheets of the standing type of the
next issue of the book. Thus the list
is kept sup to the hour" all the time,
practically to the moment of going to
press. When a new exchange is
opened, or a revision of numbers In
an old one is necessary, special sup
plements are published SO that the
public may have correct information
without waiting for the next regular
issue of the telephone book to come
around.
Sometimes telephone user is UNI
able to look up the number Of the per-
son he wants to speak with. Maybe
he has mislaid his directory, or the
man he wants is new subscriber
whose name does not appear in the
last printed list. In such cases you
can always learn instantly the num-
Der you want by asking your opera
tor to connect you with the "infor-
nation operators. The Information
operator" in every exchange have
special directories, arranged by name,
by numbers and by streets, 80 that no
matter what inquiry is made about
subscribers numbers they can answer
it Immediately.

Port Arthur district has sprung into

cording to conservative estimates,
amount to 200, 900, 900 tons of the best
grade of iron ore. The deposits cover

are less than 20 miles from this town
and within a quarter of a mile of the
shore of Lake Superior.
A. |. Goodell. manager of the North
port smelte~, has announced that the
smelter will probably be blown in next
week. There is more than 10000 tons
of ore now at tie plant, and the delay
in starting the furnaces has been due
to lack of coal.
A five foot ledge of rich copper ore
has been found in the Meteor mine at
Meteor camp. The ore was found at
the end Of a 700 foot tunnel and at o
vertical depth of $50 feet. Two feet
