When the Sunbeams flag of distress
was sighted by the Canadian a terrific
sea was running, making 1t extremely
dangerous to launch a lifeboat. After
several attempts one of the Canadian S
boats was sent away and reached the
sinking vessel after a hard struggle.
With the barkentine rolling wildly in the
trough of the seas it was impossible for
the lifeboat to go close to her side. but
the Sunbeam's captain took the desperate
chance that remained and, jumping over
board. was picked up safely.
Capt. Hook OF the Sunbeam said that
at one time he was within twelve miles
of Cape Race. when he was driven off
by the northeast gale. The men suffered
severely from their experience.

a tonnage of 1875 and was owned by J..

A Republican Year,

All over the state the presage of a
Republican victory is "in the air." but
the entire campaign will afford no more
eloquent expression of this feeling than
was voiced by the Hon. Herbert NJ.
Heath in his great speech at the Bangor
convention when he said:
Gentlemen, this is to be winning
year in the state and nation. We have
an ideal candidate for president in
Secretary Taft. His associate is Of
presidential size. The Republican party
was founded in Maine on old Franklin's
hills. 1t raised the flag of equal rights.
We have followed that flag for fifty years
and more and never break In the step,
first for the Pathfinder under the lead Of
the grand old Carthagenian whom all
Maine loved, Hannibal Hamlin Of
blessed memory, then for the emanci.
pator, then for the uncrowned hero of
|Appomatox, then for Hayes the peace
maker, then for the lamented Garfield,
then for the Plumed Knight, then for
Harrison, the eloquent, then for Nc
Kinley, the apostle of protection, then
for the great president of to-day, who
has done more for equal rights than any
man since the Civil War. The Rspubli.
can party is again peoples party under
the leadership of Theodore Roosevelt.
1t will continue in that faith under the
administration of William II. Taft. This
is no year for Maine to falter. Millions
in other states are looking for Maine to
lay strong and we'll the FIRST stone in the
wall of corporate regulation the Republi-
can party is building to withstand the
rising tide of socialism. It is the hour
for us all to touch shoulder to shoulder,
to close up the ranks, and eyes to the
front swing on to victory. We are all
going into the fight to redeem Kennebec,
to redeem Cumberland, to redeem
Androscoggin. Immense applause.)

Several aqueducts failed up in conse-

the following night accomplished the
work. A good deal of rain fell, accom-
panied by occasional thunder and light
ming.
The green worms have denuded vast
number of forest trees, and many are

ing what is known as bachelors hall.
But the divine saying that cit is not
good that man should be alone" will
hardly apply in that case, since there are
two of them and they seem to be getting
along finely; better in fact than many a

doing so, as the sequel will soon explain.
A trap was set there, nicely covered with
his favorite leaves; and in the morning
there he was, firmly caught by bis hind
leg; and being large and fat it proved to
be case of what Mr.. Greeley called the
universal law, which was "eat and be
eaten." And now, when the little kids
are asked what " stands for, the answer
comes:
w stands for woodchuck, an unlucky chap;
For eating our beans he was caught In trap.

Our Own Meek Brand.
Everybody knows that all mules
are brainy, but the mules Of old Mex
leo have something on other mules fol
q sort Of prescience of their own," said
a man who has spent many years In
the neighboring republic. "A Mexican
mule will do just so much work and
not blamed bit more.
"The riding mule, for instance, IL
fully aware Of the distance, down to a
rod, he is supposed and required tc
traverse in the progress of one travel
ing day, and all the sharp sticks OF
goads or dynamite on earth won't gel
him to do bit more than what be
knows to be the correct distance. The
Mexicans have got peculiar saying in
connection with this characteristic OF
the Mexican mule. You ask Mex
lean, for instance, how far 1t Is by
mule back to such and such point.
1.-TWO days journey IL you are not
rushed, but three days If you are in
hurry the Mexican will reply.
"His meaning is that II you don't
ask more Of your mule than you should
ask Of him, the mule will be able to
make the trip in two days. But II you
attempt to drive the brute he'll soldier
on you, and in consequence the jour.
ney will take you three days."-Ex'
