speech OF the Japanese admiral,
Baron Yomamoto, who luuched with
the President this week, and was
entertained at big peace banquet in
New York. Baron Yomamoto has
been on tour of Europe with a dis
tinguished staff comprising number
of high naval officers and princes
more or less closely connected with
the throne. He has seen all the latest
development in the European navies,
and is in this country to find out what
the United States is doing. He made
most agreeable after dinner speech
in the presence of Admiral Evans,
Admiral Coghlan, Stewart L. Wood
ford and other leading Americans.
The burden of his talk was that the
United States had been the first friend
of Japan among the western nations.
We had opened up the country to
western civilization, and Japan had
us to thank for her material progress
of the past half-century. The jap
anese people were grateful, and did
not even like the thought OF these
long-existing ties Of friendship being
broken, and so far as Japan was con-
cerned, the present friction over
events on the Pacific coast could
never develop into armed hostilities.
This conclusion is true enough, for
several good and sufficient reasons,
the chief Of which is that Japan Is
neither physically nor financially able
to fight, and has no desire to fight.
Moreover, there is nothing to light
about.
The thanks of the country are due
Senator Hale for his brief but forcible
summary of the situation, and for his
we'll deserved rebuke Of the lingo
element of this country which is SO
prone to magnifying a local and
trivial affair into a national and
serious one.

Another Maine Murder.

Harvey Searies, farmer, aged about
thirty years, shot and killed his wife and
also shot his brother, Jesse Searies, aged
twenty-five, when he found the two stroll
ing together in the woods short distance
from the village OF North Chesteryilie,
where they lived. Returning to the vii
lsge, Searles went to the house OF physi-
clan and directed him to the scene OF the
tragedy, after which he walked up the
road for short distance and then sho,
himself in the head. There is slight
chance OF his recovery.
Jesse Searles was shot through the Jaw.
His condition is not serious. Jealousy is
ascribed as the reason for the shooting.
Since last winter Harvey Searles and his
wife had lived apart ON account OF a quar-
rel, but both remained in the village, be-
ing employed on different farms.

cAsrrNE ALUMNI CAMP.
VIII Open at Sandy Point Wednes-
day, July 81.
written for THE AS.RIcAs by "A Loyal
Camperr.I


The people of Hancock county are nat
urally much interested in the Castine nor
NAL school, as each spring shows goodiy
number graduating from that excellent
institution. Yet doubt If many in the
| county know of the unique and delight
full annual gathering known as the
ssCastine Alumni Camp.
More than 1000 graduates have Joined
this association. and their voluntary and
generous contributions, with the receipts
from our summer encampmen.s. have
made possible this delightful alumni
home at Sandy Point on the shores of
Penobscot bay, just above Fort Point.
The association owns five acres OF land,
with fine shore frontage, a large grove.
and wooded slope containing an excel
lent spring which furnishes good drink
ing water. Camp is open for three
weeks, the date being set by the person
acting as president of the association.
During that time the members gather
from near and from far to renew acquaint-
ances, rest and rejuvenate.
A three-story building, 25x45, has done
duty heretofore. This contains, in the base
ment, lsrge, airy dining-room, sufficient
to accommodate fifty comfortably, and q
well-appointed kitchen and cold storage.
The second floor contains assembly hall,
the size of building, sunny and airy, with
its ten windows and two doors. Across
one corner OF the hall is the generous
fireplace, the centre OF attraction on
foggy days and chilly evenings. A good
piano adds much to the enjoyment.
Above are the sleeping apartments.
These have always been inadequate to
meet the demands, and many members
have roomed at farm houses and cottages.
The needs OF Q domitory have been so ap-
parent that in the summer Of '06 IL was
voted, since the association was out Of
debt, to sell stock, raise all OF the money
possible, borrow the rest, and put up .
good-sized cottage with plenty o: sleep
ing rooms. The building committee con-
sisted OF Prof. A. F. Richardson, Castine;
l. B. Clary, Livermore Falls; Osmond
Emery, Bar Harbor; c. P. DeIaittre,
Minneapolis, MINI.
Mr.. DeLaittre arrived early in June and
has been able to give the work his per-
sonal attention. A two-story cottage,
with twelve good-sized rooms, is we'll
under way. Each room has q magnificent
view of either the bay or charming land
scape. Many of the rooms are already
engaged, and when scamp opens July 81,
full house is expected. The large rooms
rent for = week, the four smaller ones
for 81 80 each. These receipts will meet
necessary expenses and make a payment
on the small Indebtedness.
Not only are Prof. Richardson and Prof.
Fletcher to be here, but there are great
hopes Of seeing Fred Foster and Miss
Hughes who, for years, were associated
with the early history OF the school. such
aquartetie of dearly loved teacher. bound
by the strongest ties TO hundreds OF
hearts, ought to prove the magnet that
will draw the largest number ever gath
cred at scamp and make 1907 the banner
year in the history of Castine Alumni
Encampment.

One of the Attractions at the f.. NJ.
$. Fair at Bangor.
| Secretary Albert 8. Field, OF the Eastern
Maine State fair, has just closed contract
| for the greatest attraction in the country
to be seen at the fair at Maplewood park,
Bangor, in August.
| This attraction is Capt. Thomas ). Bald
win, OF California, and his famous air.
ship, the California Arrow. OF all those
who have tried aerial navigation in this
country, Capt. Baldwin has been most
successful. He has given exhibitions with
! the California Arrow at many fairs and
expositions all over the country, and has
always been successful.
| In these days when aerial navigation is
one Of the most discussed matters every
where, the presence Of Capt. Baldwin and
his airship at The fair will be an attraction
which should make the attendance at the
1907 fair the largest in the history of that
institution, and Secretary Field Is to be
congratulated on his success in securing It,.
The sirship will be an attraction worth
travelling miles to see, but it will not be
the whole thing at the fair. There will be
scores OF other attractions, more common
place, to be sure, but which will furnish
no end Of fun for those who attend the
fair. For one thing, there'll be the big
gest midway ever at the fair this year.
The midway is the place the crowd is al
ways TO be found. even while the races
and other things are going on elsewhere.
and half the fun OF the fair is to be found
on the midway.
The entries for the various classes of
stock and other exhibits bid fair to be
more numerous than ever before, and on
the whole the prospect for the 1907 fair is
most alluring.
