No Shoe Factory Brook Water.

The board of health of Paris was re-
quested the first of last week to join the
Norway board of health in an order per-
hitting the Norway Water Company to
pump water into its mains with the
pump at the Norway shoe factory, from
the brook with which the pump is con-
nected, in case of conflagration. There
were in the order as suggested certain
definite restrictions. Such pumping
was of course to be done for the pur-
pose of increasing the pressure. 1t was
only to be done in case of conhagration,
on the request of the chief engineer.
All takers were to be given immediate
personal notice, and after the fire was
out the mains were to be flushed to such
extent as should be prescribed by the
board of health.
DR.. Littlefield, the health officer of
the board, did not feel like giving such
permission without consultation with
citizens, and the fire engineers and a
number of citizens were asked to meet
informally at the assessors Office We'd
nesday evening to consider the matter.
There was quite discussion of the
matter at the meeting, all informally.
There seemed to be much doubt whether
the board of health, knowing that the
water of the brook is not suitable for
domestic uses, would be justified in
giving permission to have it pumped in
to the mains under any circumstances,
and as the request for such permission
did not come officially from the Norway
Water Company, but individually from
one of its stockholders, it was decided
that the Paris board of health would
take no action on the order, at least I'M
til it was presented officially from the
company.
1t seems that such a system is in
operation in Berlin, N. H., where a
gravity system of supply is operated
through a six-inch main. In case it is
deemed necessary a fire pump at one of
the mills pumps from the Androscoggin
River into the mains, and afterward the
pipes are flushed from the reservoir.

PORTLAND, Me-, Dec. 20, 1907.
Dear Comrades:
The bill to retire all surviving volun-
teer officers who served in the army,
navy and marines during the late Civil
War is now before Congress. 1t has
many friends, both in the House and
Senate, and is receiving vigorous sup
port of ex-officers in the army and citi-
zens all over this country. General
Raum, who has charge of the matter in
Washington, writes me that the pros
pect of its passage at this session OF
Congress is very encouraging. One
paragraph from General Raum's letter is
of particular interest to each and every
man in Maine who held commission in
the Union Army during the late Civil
War. 1t is as follows:
"We are now called upon to furnish
for the information of the committees a
statement of the number of surviving
officers of the volunteer army, navy and
marines of the Union, who are eligible to
the provisions of the bill, classified &C.
cording to rank and age, to enable those
committees to make an estimate of the
cost of the measure, 80 that the facts
can be reported to the two Houses OF
Congress"
1t is necessary for the said officers to
comply with the above literally. In
view of the fact that since the close OF
the war our ranks have been constantly
depleted until there are but compare.
lively few of us left, it is very difficult
to find and communicate with them.
The Adjutant Generals report from 81
to '67 is of little value in this under.
taking. Therefore, I shall ask all the
newspapers in this state to publish this
letter as favor to the officers who are
living, whose gratitude will be their
only recompense. hope by this method
to reach most of the surviving officers
and would request each and every one
of them to write me at once, giving his
name, residence, rank and age, so that
can communicate with him.
A compliance with this request on the
part of the newspaper press of the state
will confer great favor on many de-
serving officers and many citizens az
we'll, and an immediate compliance on
the part of such officers with my request
will hasten the accomplishment of this
meritorious measure, which lies very
near to the heart of all. 1t will ma
terially aid in giving you, without delay,
the honors which your great services tt
your country so richly merit, and per
haps relieve you for the few remaining
years that you have to spend here from
carkipg care.
Yours sincerely,
JOHN c. COBB, Secretary.

With Hamlet Left Out.

There is something new under the sun,
after all. 1t is nothing unusual to see a
report of a wedding in which the name
of the bridegroom is not mentioned, nor
is it anything remarkable, considering
that that individual, though indispensa-
BILE, is the least important feature of the
function. But the following, which is
from the Mexico column of the Rumford
Citizen, is the first case ever noted where
the central figure was omitted:

her son, Mr.. Burbridge, who was married last

The Democrat receives from some un-
known correspondent paragraph which
is an interesting news item, probably all
right, but the correspondent has neglect
ed the necessary act of putting on some
thing to show who sent it, so it has to
follow the inflexible rule of newspaper
offices and go into the waste basket.
The correspondents name somewhere
on a corner of the envelope or the sheet
inside would make all the difference
possible.

e. shurtleff,s 18th Birthday,

A pleasant occasion for Alonzo e
Shurtleff of South Paris was the seventy.
fifth anniversary Of his birth, which oc.
CURED last Wednesday. His sister, Miss
Jennie Shurtleff of Portland, was here to
assist in the celebration of the day, as
we'll as to celebrate her own birthday,
as the same day was also her anniver-
sary, she being just six years younger
than her brother. The 18th of January
is quite an important day in the Shurtlefi
family, as it is not only the birthday OF
these two members, but was also the
date of the birth of both their mother
and their mothers mother.
The four children OF Mr.. and Mrs. A.
E. Shurtleff we're also with them for the
day on Wednesday-Mr. and Mrs. Frank
A. Shurtleff, Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur K.
Shurtleff of West Paris, and Misses En-
ma and Ida Shurtleff of South Paris, and
their one grandson, Stanley Shurtleff.
A feature of the day which gave Mr..
Shurtleff special pleasure was the pre-
sentation of seventy five handsome pinks
"from Good Cheer friends" The re-
membrance was highly appreciated by
him.
A few days since a life insurance
agent wanted Mr.. Shurtleff to take a
policy.
"I'm too old to INSURE" said Mr..
Shurtleff.
81 don't think So" said the agent.
"Up to what age do you insure a
man?" asked Mr.. Shurtleff.
"Sixty."
Now that life insurance agents judg-
ment wasn't so good, for most people
would set Mr.. Shurtleff above sixty.
But very few would set him above sew
enty, either by his appearance or by the
work he does. He has been in the grain
business here for many years, and when
the mill which he was occupying was
burned in the fire of April, 1905, he be-
gan making arrangements for another of
his own about as soon as the fire was
under control, and is still doing business
in it, in the meantime making one or
two other real estate deals on the side.
Nor are his activities by any means
Church and lodge matters, and all forms
Of activity which call for the exercise of
public spirit, find him one of the readiest
He has been one of the strong
pillars of the Universalist church move

he meetings, day or evening; but he is a
confirmed church-goer, and does not take

'eason, but goes to some other service.
lie rarely refuses to take any position of
public service without pay to which he

GouId's y; Hebron IL.

Hebron's second game of basket ball
was played on the gymnasium floor at
Gould Academy Friday, Jan. II. He
bron played under great disadvantage,
the hall being cut up by four posts,
which made the passing of the ball by
the visiting team much slower and less
sure. Hebron received much boisterous
criticism from the Bethel people yet
took it in good part and played re-
markable game, Soule, WEIGH, Wilson
and Keough making many star plays.
Keough threw one goal from nearly the
length of the floor. A most remarkable
one. The return game at Hebron, Feb.
4th, will be witnessed with great in
terest as each team has many fine play
ers and will work hard for the victory.
