w. C. T. u. Meeting.

The w. G. T. U. held its regular
meeting on Tuesday afternoon in G..
A. R. hall. The decorations were of
flowers and asparagus. "All Round
the World the Ribbon White Is
Twined" was sung by Mrs. Philo
Steward and devotions were led by
Mrs. Marsh. Miss Margery Morrison
was then introduced and spoke on
1.-THE Other Side of Life in New York
City," describing various institutions
for lettering the conditions under
which the other half live in the
crowded tenement districts. Cooper
Institute model fats, soup kitchens,
the Salvation Army Industrial Home,
recreation piers, the Westside Neigh
borhood House and others have
all come under Miss Morrison's
personal observation, and she has
had some practical experience in set
Element work in the Neighborhood
House. An address was then given
by Mrs. Marsh of Providence ON the
"Work of the White Ribboners in
Rhode Island" She contrasted con-
ditions such as we know them in
Maine with those in Rhode Island
where the hands of the temperance
people have been tied until recently
and where there is still one saloon
for about every three hundred of the
population. The w. c. T. U. in Rhode
Island is actively engaged in temper
ance and reform work. Mrs. Marsh is
herself highly valued member of
that organization.
The musical numbers of the pro-
gram which added greatly to the en-
joyment of the afternoon were as fol-
lows: Piano solo, Mendelsohn's
"Rondo Capricioso" and sinding's
"Rustle OF Spring" by Miss Mary
Emery; songs "Jes Hold My Hand"
"I'm Wearyin for You" written by
Carrie Jacobs Bond, and "Chicadee"
sung by Miss Florence Wyman.
A social half hour and refreshments
completed one of the most enjoyable
meetings of the season of the w. q.
T. U.
The public are cordially welcomed
at all the program meetings of the
Union. The State convention of the
w. G. T. U. meets in Bangor Septem-
Der 1917. 1t Is hoped many Of the
Skowhegan Union can attend.

Grand Army Matters.

The annual reunion of the 1st Maine
Cavalry will be held in Skowhegan or
Wednesday, September 18th. AL
survivors of the regiment, with theiI
families are invited to participate. A
meeting of the local members of the
organization is to be held at Grand
Army Hall, next Saturday evening,
to formulate plans and arrange pro
gram. This reunion was held at Wa
terville last year.
Notices are out announcing the
annual reunion of the goth Maine
Regiment, to occur at Foxcroft on
Wednesday, September 1st. Albert
w. Smith is the only survivor of this
regiment living in Skowhegan. he
was member of Co., B., recruited at
Foxoroft, and he hopes to attend this
reunion.
Local Grand Army men are already
making plans to attend the national
encampment at Atlantic City next
year. Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Smith, who

Consented to Return Home.

Shortly after seven O'Clock last
Sunday evening a man and woman
called on Sheriff John A. Mooers and
advised him that their daughter, Ii
years of age, had left home without
their consent and under circum-
stances that led them to believe she
did not intend to return. She had
taken the train for Waterville at hah
past six and they had fastened to in
form him as soon as they ascertained
that fact. Mr.. Mooers took the mat
ter up by telephone with the City
Marshall in VAUDEVILLE and with his
deputy, Henry d. Brophy at Fairfield.
At about half past nine Mr. Brophy
telephoned that he had found the girl
in Waterville but that she refused to
return home or to come to Fairfield
She was led to change her mind, how
ever, on being advised that Mr.
Mooers would order her detained nn-
der arrest in Waterville if she did
not, and consented to come with the
officer to Fairfield where she was
cared for, for the night. She was
brought here the following day and
restored to her parents who were
naturally very much gratified to have
her under their own roof once more.
1t is probable that the young lady
will herself regard the outcome of
the adventure as most fortunate in
such reflections as she may have up
on the matter in after years.

Recent investigation in New York
should show the parents Of every boy
where there is doubt, as to whether
it twill pay" to send the lad back to
school this fall. Comparing the wag-
es Of boys who leave school at IL
years of age with those who go out
into the world at Is, it was found that
up to his 25th year the former earns q
total of s5722, whereas the boy who
stays in school until he is 1S earns
1887 by the time he Is 25. This SIM
ply shows that the four additional
years spent in schools, after reaching
H. represent an additional earning
capacity of se49 annually to a young
man when he is 2s years old. School
Ing in this case is certainly a good
Investment.

No doubt the daily newspapers are
responsible in great measure for the
multiplicity of suicides, by publishing
all the sickening details Of these I'M
fortunate events. We all of US are
forced to believe more or less in auto
uggestion. Take a melancholy per-
son, who is constantly brooding over
these things, the mind takes in the
details that suggest and describe the
various methods of self destruction,
and it is easier to illustrate them in
case of the poor unfortunate, who
discovers that to be quick way out
Of life. A movement is ON foot by
certain societies to induce the news
papers to cut out the details of sui
cides. No sane mind wants to read
them

For Killing Deer.

Q. s. Adams of Jackman, deputy
under Sheriff John A. Moores and al
80 game warden in connection with
The Maine Fish and Game Commits
sion, was in town Tuesday. He came
to commit HemenegiI Declair and
Ernest Naddeau, Canadians who have
temporary residence in Jackman, to
Somerset Jail.
1t seems that over one year ago the
two men above named and one Will
fred Cloutier were concerned in the
killing Of deer in close time in north
ern Somerset and Mr.. Adams has
been following the case ever since.
He succeeded in landing the respon-
dents this week and they were tried at
Moose River before Trial Justice H !.
w. Holden on Monday. Fines and
costs were imposed, aggregating
nearly $50 in each case. Cloutier set
tied his fine but the other two respon-
dents did not pay and we're brought
here and committed for default.

Skowhegan's "Castle in SPAIN
has a Solid Foundation.

Skowhegan now has 81 water
wheels, developing power for its diff
ferent manufacturing establishments,
the horsepower resulting being about
5000. We have something like 5000
inhabitants or rather more than one
inhabitant for each horsepower.
Those who have given thought to the
matter have known for years that
the water which now yields the 5000
horse power, If fully utilized, would
develop FIVE times as much. The re-
port of Engineer Q. s. Humphrey and
the Water Power committee of the
Skowhegan Board of Trade, submit
ted at the meeting last Friday even
ing, fully substantiates this opinion
and makes it plain that the Kennebec
river at this point offers the most
practical opportunity for the develop
ment of $4,000 horsepower. Assum-
ing that ration of inhabitants to
horsepower would remain the same.
if this plan of development could be
put through, Skowhegan would GER
tainly become city of $4,000 to 3d.
900 people.
The report of the Water Power
Committee of the Skowhegan Board
of Trade is given in full elsewhere in
this issue; it is a resume of the re-
port made by Engineer Humphrey
and is worthy of a reading and the
most careful consideration.

An Unusual Opportunity.
Mariska Aldrich to be Heard in Concert
Here Next Week.

Mariska Aldrich to be Heard in Concert
Here Next Week.
1t was learned yesterday afternoon
that Nine. Mariska a. Aldrich, now at
Kilcare, whose phenomenal success
in grand opera and foreign drawing
rooms makes her one of the greatest
attractions in New York the coming
season. has consented to sing here and
concert is being arranged for next
week, Friday, which will give all a
rare opportunity to hear singer of
first rank.
Detailed announcements will be
made next week. Reserved seats
will be on sale Monday at SIMPSONS.
"Musical America" publishes this
week an interesting account of Nine.
Aldrich's career from which the fol-
lowing extracts are made:
Nine. Mariska- Aldrich, the former Manhat-
tan opera star, has just closed contract with
the Metropolitan Opera house for two years,
her season in each year to begin with jan
uary Ist, thus enabling her to fulfill the de
sire which she has had for engaging in con-
cert work. Her bookings for concert en-
gagements are already large. Wofsohn bu-
reau expects to keep her time well occupied
until the opening Of the next year. With
the exception of two years study in Paris
and London, her musical education has been
secured in this country. Her voice is a rich
mezzo soprano, is full. mellow and remark
ably sweet, and she sings with facility and
expression. Three years ago her babies and
her home occupied all of her time, with moth
ing further from her thoughts than a career
in grand opera. American born, but of noble
Hungarian blood. Nine. Aldrch created
great interest in her first seasons work be-
fore the musical critics of New York, Phila-
delphia and Buffalo 1.-THE only American
cities in which she has thus far appeared).
Nine. Mariska-Aldrich comes from Paris and
London this season, fresh from laurels won
in some of the prominent drawing rooms of
both capitals. Her singing at the home OF
Mrs. Ronalds, with Madam Nordca, aroused
the greatest enthusiasm"

Use is more and more being made
Of bits of lumber that have heretofore
been thrown away. What one facto-
ycannot use, another turns to profit.

brushes recently made a discovery in
Maine which supplied him with ma
eria exactly suited to his purpose
be came here to buy wood for the
backs of hair brushes and the handles
OF showing brushes, and CHANGED to
visit the yards of spool maker who
vas using white birch. The spool
man took the white part Of the wood
only, and was throwing away the red
hearts. Thousands of cords had been
burned or dumped in the lake to be
nd Of it. The red hearts were ex-
ictly what the brush maker wanted,
md at little more than the expense
