Commissioner Woodward bills for all
crushed rock sold last year and not yet
paid for.
The question Of installing q steam heat
ing plant in Hancock hall was discussed.
The present furnaces are in bad condition,
and must be repaired or new ones must be
bought soon. The mayor saidit had been
roughly estimated that steam heating
plant would cost $1,000 to 1890. The
board thought it would be matter OF
economy to establish such plant, but the
question of first expense in the city's pres-
ent financial condition is an obstacle.
Aid. Hagan, to whom was referred claim
Of A. A. Richardson, OF Lamoine, for
damage to carriage last spring because of
defect in highway, recommended that the
same be paid, and the board 80 voted.

Ellsworth Gun Club Entertain Visi-
tors Labor Day.
The Ellsworth gun club entertained
visitors from Bar Harbor, Bangor and Old
Town at their range at Wyman park on
Labor day. The day was not favorable to
high score, the strong wind which blew
during the greater part OF the day making
hard targets. Few OF the shooters held up
to their usual average.
There were twelve events on the pro-
gram, total of 200 birds. Only ten men
shot through the entire program, but as
many more shot in several of the events.
Altogether some 1900 birds were trapped.
W. G. Hill, OF Portland, professional,
and State champion, shot through the
program for targets only, and as expected
was high gun for the day. In the after
noon Mr.. Hill gave an exhibition at flying
objects with shot gun and rife, and did
some expert work. Nh. Hill represents
the Union Metallic Cartridge Co. and the
Remington Arms Co.
OF those shooting through the program
in competitions for prizes, Mr.. Mutty, OF
Old Town, was high gun, and took first
prize, silk umbrella. Charles Shea, OF
Bar Harbor, won second prize, hunting
knife, and Mr.. Hincks, of Old Town, won
third, q compass.
The Ellsworth gun club furnished a lun-
cheon at noon. w. E. Whiting, w. G.
Hill, M. Shea and II. F. Wescott acted at
different times as referee, and Harry w.
Haynes was official scorer. large mum :
Der Of spectators enjoyed the shoot.
The scores for the day appear below.

Limit and Dark Cigars.

A striking example OF the ORDINARY
smokers Ignorance on the subject OF
smokes is the popular superstition that
n dark looking cigar In stronger than
lighter colored one. Some strong cigars
have dark wrappers. but the DARK
wrapper does no, by any means indi-
cafe n strong cigar. DARK. gummy 70
bacco n thoroughly cured. Is the m'io
nc, form. OF course N dark tobacco Is
not thoroughly cured II viii be strong
but 80 will light tobacco. for that mat
ter ANY cigar man will bet you that
the dark color is usually. though mol
always. n sign OF a ripe. well cured
leaf. which Is therefore milder nine
times out OF ten than the lighter hueo
leaf But when II IL known that every
manufacturer makes both dark ant
light cigars and that he uses exacu,
the same blend OF hIler In both an'
that the wrapper only constitutes
small fractional part OF the cigar II
clearly seen that the shade OF 10
wrapper has little to do with tn
strength OF the cigar. Ask the deaie
for a strong cigar. He hands out
dark one. and the imagination zoe
