BABY BROWN DIES.

Seward Allan Brown, the baby son
of Supt. and Mrs. C. F. Brown, passed
away Saturday morning at seven
O'Clock. The funeral was held from
the house Sunday afternoon, conducted
by Rev. E. P. Hall who was assisted
by Rev. J. E. Parker. Music was fur
nished by a choir consisting of Misses
Mildred Clark, Ruby Williams, Grace
Kingsley and Winnifred Jennings.
Seward Allan was sixteen months
old. He never had been strong since
birth and had been under the care of
the doctor over half of his short life.
He was an unusually bright child, the
pride of his parents and his death is
a blow almost too hard to bear. The
sincere sympathy of the people of the
city is extended to them at this time
of sorrow.

LARGE LOTS OR NAL

You do not always save money in
buying in large quantities. There is
always a temptation when looking over
those Chicago catalogues to buy more
than you need III order to make a
shipment. This takes our ready mon.
ey and locks it up in something that
you will have no use for, for weeks
or perhaps for months. Perhaps the
goods are in your way and sometimes
they do not improve with age. To buy
as you need is a good rule as a general
thing, but if you can use large lots
1t will Surely pay you to- take your
list to the home merchant and have
him make you prices for the same
things. Have you ever tried to see
how far $50 cash down will go in the
home store? Our home merchants are
ready to talk business to the
cash buyers for large IS OF small.

BIG CROWD EXPECTED.

Chamberlain is energetically prepar-

of like character in the settlement of

100, 900, but the general land office
and railroad companies declare that
never before has there apparently been
so great an interest as manifested in
this land opening, registrations for
which will be received at Chamberlain
from Oct. 5 to II inclusive.
The mails daily bring bushels of
inquiries to the United States land
Office, and to real estate men, the in
quiries coming from every part OF
The United States. Not less than 10000
registrations are expected at Cham
berlain alone, and preparations are
being made to handle the crowds ex-
peditiously.

NOT WORK OF NIGHTRIDERs.

Some time ago the town of Alaska,
in the northern part of the state was
set on fire by unknown parties, who
it was believed had did the work fol
spite or for robbery, but it now appears
that it was the work of a woman and
her husband. Mrs. Fred Gringle of
Alaska has confessed to the county at
torney that the town was fired not by
nightriders or by men seeking ven-
gance against the town, but by herself
and husband for the purpose of OBJ
tanning insurance on their property.
1t appears from her statement that
a bed was thrown between the pool
room and ~Ballinsky's saloon and satur-
ated with kerosene and early in the
morning set on fire. Apparently the
Gringle family had barely time to
crawl through the upstairs window, but
it is now known that this was a spec
tacular exhibition to- divert suspicion,
and that earlier valuable goods, in
Guiding cigars, had been boxed and
moved from the building.
Sheriff Hoven and Fire Marshall
Craft rad secured these goods and
they refute the claim of Mr.. and Mrs.
Gringle that they had time to save
nothing except the clothing they slept
in.
Mrs. Gringle was put in Jail here
and her husband at the Bangor Jail,
that they might be examined separ-
ately.

THE r
Conditions Which Led Up to Establish
ing the First Creamery.

The early history or the beginning
of any industry always makes enter
tanning reading and there is no indus
try whose early history is more inter
esting than is that of the beginning of
the creamery system. The Farm Jour
nal. ar agricultural paper published in
Philadelphia, in a recent issue gives an
interesting account of the establish.
ment of the first creamery, which in
the main is correct. 1t says:
The year 1871 blazes forth from the
pages of history as the date of the first
great disastrous fire suffered by the
new world. At that time the market
prices of everything were in just such
a state of depression as has been wit
messed in the United States recently.
