HELP
STOCK WILL BE DISTRIBUTED
SOON AND WORK ON THE LINE
BEGUN FROM DOUGLAS TO
WATERVILLE.

The officers who went to Seattle
last week to interview Great North
ern officials returned home the first
of the week quite elated over the sue
cess attained.
Mr.. Costello of the Great Northern
assured them that his road would
assist them in every way possible:
that they would furnish the cars
necessary for freight, and that he
believed the steel for constructing
the line would also be Forthcoming.
A telegram received from Mr.. Hill
at st. Paul asked the people to be
patient. This was in reply to a re-
quest that he furnish the steel for
the Waterville branch. 1t takes time,
of course, to secure such concessions,
but it is believed that Mr.. Hill will
assist In this matter.
The stock certificates are expected
to arrive in few days. The trustees
are arranging to issue the same and
begin work as soon as possible. 1t

REMEMBERS HERO
OF QUEBEC

London, Sept. 13.-Modern Eng
land looked backward $50 years to-
day and bowed low to General James
Wolfe, the great soldier who on Sep
TENDER IS, 1859, won the battle of
Quebec, the fight which broke the
power of France in the new world
and marked the beginning Of the
present Dominion of Canada. And 1t
was a victory made nobler by the
conqueror's own blood, for on that
memorable battle on the Plains of
Abraham General Wolfe received his
death wound.
Principal among the tributes paid
to General Wolfe on this 150th an
niversary of his victory was a great
banquet in London this evening. Lord
Roberts presided and the guests in
cluied a long list of military men,
statesmen and other prominent Is
public life.
The story of General James Wolfe
and the victory Of Quebec forms one
Of the most brilliant pages of Eng
lish istory. The task he set about to
accomplish was indeed formidable
one. After taking his army up the
ST. Lawrence, a river deemed unnav-
igable, he was face to face with an
impregnable fortress, as 1t seemed,
defended with an activity and deter
mination unexampled in history.
Montcalm, the French general, lay
securely ensconced in Quebec with a
superior army and quite unassailable
He refused to be drawn into the open,
believing that 1t was only a question
of time before the British would
have to strike their camps and de-
part in discontinue, their object I'M
achieved.
Wolfe's first attempt to pierce the
enemy's lines was attended by dis
aster. 1t cost him 500 men, and
told on his health. Though prostrat-
ed by fever, he remained dauntless
and self-reliant. Day after day he
strove to discover the weak point in
his enemy's armor. At last he found
1t at point still known as Wolfe's
cove. At risk appalling to contem-
plate he led 1000 men up the face Of
a cliff and on the Plains of Abraham,
where he awaited Montcalm and his
army, only to conquer it when it did
come. Both generals fell in the en-
counter.

AGAINST DISBURSEMENT.
Frank B. Miller Of Roektand Protests
In Behalf Of Gushing.

Frank B. Miller of Rockland appear
ed Thursday afternoon before the com
mittee on towns to protest against the
bill to set Fred Thornton and his
property from the town of Gushing and
annex him to the town Of Thomaston
Mr.. Miller said that he still owned the
place in Gushing where he was first
introduced" to his parents, and he did
not want to see. the old town ROBBED
Of any more territory. ...
Mr.. Thornton's case was presented
by Hon. J. e. Moore Of ThOmaston. He
stated that Mr.. Thornton's property
was lust across the st. George river
that his children attended the Thomas
ton schools and that all his interests
are in Thomaston. Mr.. Moore also
presented a petition signed by heavy
tax payers in Gushing asking that he
be permitted to leave that town.
, Mr.. Thornton stated that he wished
to be set off from the town OF Cushing
principally on account of the SCHOOLS.
He described the experience OF ms
elder daughter, who when she Wlshed
to enter the Thomaston High school
was told that she was not fitted, ana
on account of her age was so dls-
couraged that she did not try to go
further. He did not wish the ex-
perience repeated in the case of his
two younger children.

on Bert L.. Stevens, chairman OF the
Gushing board of selectmen, who ex-
pressed his view after this fashion:
TIA man isn't satisfied with the
town he lives in he can pack up ms
goods and sell his place and move OUT
but he ought not to expect the towns
to change their boundaries and come
around and get him.. He said that
the town of Cushing was. small enough
now, and added that SO far as he knew
Mr.. Thornton's daughter was the only
one he knew that had been refused ad-

WAYS AND BRIDGES.
Act for Protection Of Trees Opposed In
Some of Its Features.

Dr. H. N. Blake of Monmouth ap-
peared before the committee on ways
and bridges this afternoon in favor of
the act requiring the consent of the
municipal officers of a town and city
and the abutting owners, before shade
trees along public highways can be
cut down or mutilated. The bill was
designed as a precautionary measure
to save the trees, he said, and crimi-
nal penalty had consequently been at
tached.
Herbert M. Heath of Augusta
speaking for various electric railway
interests, said the consequences of the
act might be far reaching. He agreed
that the trees ought to be protected
but thought this would be effected just
as well if the provision concerning the
consent of abutting owners was cut
out. He thought that, otherwise, q
great deal of trouble might be caused
He also offered 1f1Taendment, which
was agreed to- psoatidings that nothing
in the act should apply to electric rail-
way lines which had been lawfully To-
Gated. AT the request of the commit
tee he drew up a new draft of the bill
From some questions asked by some
of the committee members it appeared
that there might be- some objection to
certain phases of it, when it was con-
sidered in executive session.
During the courses of Mr.. Heath's re-
marks Representative Rounds of Port
land, q member of fke committee, ask
cd if he wasn't this father of bill
giving electric railway companies the
right to erect trolley poles wherever
they wished.
mot that I remember Of" said Mr..
Heath. But I once, together with the
late Orville d. Baker and Judge Choate
told telephone company which came
roaming down our street putting in
their poles that I'd chop them down
if they didn't take them away. 1 think
you did something similar once, in
Portland, Mr.. Rounds"
Yes" said the Portland man, Il did.
And the poles came down, too"
C. N. Blanchard of Wilton, opposed
the bill He said he thought the abut-
ting owners had rights which ought to
be respected.
A number of other matters were
considered but none of them was con-
tested.

.."Paid IN FUR roniaht.

The Portland Advertiser has the fol-
lowing to say Of paid in FulP' which
was in that city last week, and which
comes to the Augusta Opera house to-
night:
For the second time this sea
son Eugene Walters viriie, 'forceful
play Of contemporary life paid in
FulI' was presented at the Jefferson
theater Friday evening before good
sized audience that made up in appre-
citation what it may have lacked IN
size. The fact that the play has been
seen here before makes it unnecessary
to repeat the story, but 1t will belre-
membered that the theme of the play
relates to the seventh commandment
Thou shalt not steal
1t touches the main moral issues In
American life today from the stand
point of the average man possibly more
vtalIy than any play that has gone
before and it establishes this play
wright as a man with a message for
the American public whose context
commands as eager a hearing as the
latest Extra The story is one that
is alive and walking up. and down the
streets of many American cities today
The half dozen characters in the play
tell the story in plain American YER
nacular and the forceful lines drive the
moral home with sledgehammer blows
that have made this play one Of the
most remarkable successes Of the past
year.
paid in Fulr' was presented last
evening by~an entirely different cast
from the one seen earlier in the sea-
son but it is only fair to say, that,
good as the one was that first pre-
sented it here, the present one suffers
none in comparison. Lionel Adams
portrayed the character of Joseph
Brooks with fidelity worthy of a
much more likable character, while the
part of the wife, Emma Brooks, was
given a splendid rendition by Clara
Rlandick. Her portrayal of the part
is one that calls for the highest praise
and her work was generously applaua-
ed.
In the role of Jimsy Smith, George
Backus is the peace maker OF the play
and the buffer between all warning
elements. He gave a most natural ana
finished rendition of the part. The
role Of Capt. Williams was excellently
presented by Scott Cooper who. with
his bluff ways and open speech. at
first gives the impression that he is
hard hearted and cruel but the scene
between him and Mrs. Brooks in the
third act changes the opinion as to
his merits as man, and his work
was most creditably done. The other
characters in the play were evidently
put in to help the connection rather
than add strength to the play but Miss
Robinson as the mother. Miss Berg
as her daughter, Beth, and Mr.. Belden
as the Japanese servant, all gave cred
liable renditions of the parts assigned
them. while the play was handsomely
and appropriately staged"
