"A feature in connection with the new

which the National Guard of the State
Is now being armed, and which sue
ceeds the well-known "Krag," is the
ammunition which, while it does not
differ materially in appearance from
that used in the older arm, cannot be
used IN 1t, neither can the ammunition
for the "krag" be used in the new
rifle. Samples of the ammunition for
the 1903 model of the Springfield have
been received at the Office of the adj
Jutant general, and are now on ex-
hibition there. The cartridges are not
carried in belt as was the case with
those of the "Krag," but in what is
called bandoleer. the cartridges COM

The windbreak on the north side of
the kennebec bridge is usually re-
moved the first of April and stored
away for the summer, but the
cold winds which have thus far pre-
vailed since the month came in have
banished any desire on the part of the
people to have the 'fence" removed,
and i'll fact there has been a general
feeling of gratefulness for the protec-
ton it has afforded to those who have
to cross the bridge. 1t is now consid-
cred fairly probable that the weather
will moderate sufficiently to allow of
the removal of the windbreak by Me-
mortal day.

it as tightly as he could He then

An English Dinner.


Some time ago a reader asked for
a menu to be served to some English
friends. to be typical of their own
country.
This is what our neighbors across
the water would probably serve: First.
soup. clear or thick; then fish, baked
or broiled, served whole, garnished
with lemon, parsley, or a sauce; game
or a roasted fowl with celery would be
next, followed by roast of beef, or
leg of mutton with mashed potatoes
and one other vegetable like aspara-
gus or cauliflower. The salad would
be plain green's of some kind with a
French dressing, never mayonnaise-
Sometimes the salad is served with
the roast For dessert, delicate pud-
dings, fresh fruits, water ice, sell
dom ice cream; in the season, mince
pie and plum pudding are favorites-
Cheese of all kinds will be in evil
dence with small crisp crackers, called
biscuits by our English cousins
~Relishes, such as olives and sailed
nuts, are next placed on the table, not
served through the meal as We have
them or as the Russians do. Coffee is
served in the drawfng-room with sugar
and lilueurs, never cream

Progressive Needle Party.

Here is an idea worked out by a
clever girl for an afternoon affair
which she recently gave. There were
four tables, with four girls at each ia
bic. Every table had four spools of
thread and so needles of all sizes in
bowl in the center. The game be-
gan at the tap of a bell and the trick
was for partners to see who could
thread the most needles before the
bell rang again
Pincushions tied with long ribbon
loops were given to each in lieu of
score cards and pins were used in
