at city hall to meet the president of
the L., A. & w. Railway, Mr. Graham

Hallowell to Granite Hill, which has
been point of much interest of late.
Hon. r. +. Beane presented the spe-
clal points in the case to the road,
pointing out the benefits received by
the road in Il lengthy and impressive
argument. Hon. j. w. Church, presi-
dent of the Board of Trade, made a
few remarks in the interests of the
merchants along Water street. Z
After much discussing among those
present, President Graham decided to
lay it over until a meeting of the di-
rcctors of the road could be called to
discuss the question. Nothing was
reached in the way of decision, but

meeting and satisfactory arrange
ment can be made for the benefit of

The meeting was well attended and

Ex-AIderman Joseph A. GIazier the
Victim of Pickpockets on Train.

Alderman Joseph A. GlaZer was
robbed of a pockctbook containing $50
as he was leaving the II o'clock train
last night on his way home after at
tending the Field day exercises of the
Patriarchs Militant at Bangor. AS he
passed through the door of the car he
felt two men jostle against him land
when he stepped from the platform
he discovered that the wallet which he
had kept in his hip pocket was miss
ing.
He notified the conductor. who adj
vised him to ride to South Gardiner in
order that he and the conductor might
go through the train to see if they
could identify the men who had push
ed against him as he was leaving the
train. He went through the car with
the conductor, but was unable to find
the two men, who had probably passed
through the train at Gardiner and left
with the crowd that was getting out of
the smoker. Mr. Glazer, who was ac-
companied by Mrs. Glazier waited at
South Gardiner for the Pullman and
arrived back here at 12.4O, but without
the missing pocketbook.

MUCH ENTHUSIASM.
Brilliant Outlook for Gardeners Fourth
of July Celebration.

The meeting last evening of the COM
mtteeS on Fourth of July celebration
was the largest and most enthusiastic
one yet, and the most of them were on
hand at the appointed hour, 7.30.
Chairman Atkins was delayed by some
business matters, and SO the meeting
waited a few minutes for him to come.
The council room was filled anG some
had to stand even after extra chairs
were brought in.
The first business to be taken up was
the report of Chairman f. S. Smith
of the committee on music, who gave
the prices; of several different bands he
had communicated with. The price
asked by thesss Gardiner Band was
thought to be little higher than it
ought to be under the circumstances,
and there was considerable discussion
of the matter. 1t was voted to engage
the Gartlinef~'Band'f If the terms were
moderated somewhat. The Winthrop
Band and ting Dominican Boys Band of
% pieces from lewiston were also
heard from. This band is composed of
boys but it is said to be a fine one,
and will be q great attraction for the
day Mr.. Smith said the offer had been
mad" that # the committee would have
the Grass formerly used by the Co.
y / an corps repaired, drum corps
would be furnished free for the par
ade, but he did not know sure whether
that would be the case.
Chairman Harraden of the committee
on fireworks reported that they We're
corresponding for proposals. Chairman
Whitney of the committee of firemen
reported that he had not received any
information from the Randolph and
Hallowcll tubs, which were to take
part in a contest for prize. Chief
Kendall said he could not make any
more favorable report in regard to the
local firemen turning out than before,
which was that but one company would
take part in the parade. The different
pieces OF apparatus would be in the
procession without the companies. 1t
was voted that the chief engineer have
the apparatus in the parade and as
many men as would come out.
chairman Hazard of the committee
| on field sports said that II the flremen
did not turn out it would seem to bar

| sports as originally planned, but the
matter was left open. For the river
carnival it was reported that the chair

act. William H. Goodwin was appoint
ed chairman of the committee and DIR.

In the absence of the president-the
bishop of the diocese-Ammi Davcn-
port was called to the chair. The sec
rotary, Rev. r. w. Plant, presented the
annual report covering the entire work
for the year. The main feature of the
report was the recording of a year of
exceptional prosperity. No cases of
serious illness reported, no change in
the management necessary, and the
full complement of children in the
house the entire year. The new house
has proved adequate and complete in
every respect. Five children have been
placed in private families. Twenty one
were refused admission for lack of
room. The family" idea of the house
is strictly maintained as opposed to
the "Institution.'
The corporation recognized specially
the very efficient services of the ma
tron, Mrs. Faye. The board of lady
managers has left nothing undone to
maintain the high standard of the
house. The services of DR.. Simons,
house surgeon and Chas A. Knight
legal advisor, received grateful recog

accounts were audited by a. Daven-

of the home throughout the State is
steadily growing, and the future looks
bright with promise. J. S. MaXcy wrote
a letter to the corporation in which he
asked not to be reelected as treas
urer as he felt unable to give the work
the attention he felt needed.
The election resulted as follows:

the country were fPretestant church
members or directly under the iniiu-
ence of the churches. - H4,i =,
The speaker went on to say that in
the activities of the church the men
were not taking the position that they
should. He advocated business meth
DDS in the church he same as prevail
ed in ones private business. He char
acteriZed the present age as the Lay
mems age in the church. There had
been the Childrcn's age, the WOmen's
age and the Young Peoples age in re-
ligious work, but this was the Mems
age. 1t demanded loyalty of the men
in the Christian church, loyalty that
placed the church first and in advance
of the lodge or the labor union. 1t
looked bad to see a church member
whose lodge met on the same night as
the weekly prayer meeting and drilled
it's degree team on Sunday. He con-
cluded by warning his hearers against
moping and declared that the church
was the mightiest organization in the
world and that great triumphs were
in store for it.
