At the annual meeting in Portland, De.
cember 9Th, of the board of directors OF
the Maine general hospital, Edward D.
Noyes, the treasurer, reported the tota
receipts were $93, 057 during the year,
Paying patients contributed $45, $50 OF
this.
DR.. Charles M. Smith, superintendent,
reported that 566 free patients were
treated. DR.. Smith spoke of an advance
in the cost of provisions and a decrease
in the cost of water, fuel and light.
The extent of the free service increased
and the institution, he said, fmore near
ly approached the ideal of what a gen
eral hospital should be than ever be-
FORE" He spoke of the interest taken
in the hospital by Mrs. C. M. Raymond
and Mrs. Pullen. The former is provid-
ing extensive refurnishing of the Ray
mond room and the latter has fitted up
handsome suite of rooms and provided
for their maintenance in memory of her
husband, Stanley T. Pullen.
During the year two legacies were re-
ceived of 81, 900 each from DR.. Hiram H.
Hill Of Augusta and Eleanor Whitman
of Woodstock.
Miss Harriet M. Hohenfeld, superin-
tendent Of nurses, reported 10 nurses re-
ceived diplomas.

SOME CURIOUS CRAFTS.
Large and Proli6c Result Of Union of
Tomato and Eggplant.

Large and Proliic Result Of Union Of
Tomato and Eggplant.
"A Michigan gardener has been graft
ing tomatoes on to eggplants and red
peppers. He began his experiments in
1898, and named his first achievement
Crimson Cushion tomato grated on to
an eggplant the Kaiser. He then went
further, and grated Trophy tomato on
to an eggplant, naming the resulting to-
mato the Roosevelt.
The Ingenious gardener, however,
made mistake in using that name so
early in the game. For soon another in
SEPARATION came to him, and he grated
the Kaiser tomato on to a red pepper.
Here, indeed, was combination ,vege-
table really worthy the name of Roose-
welt. But, owing to his unfortunate pre-
cipitation in the use of that cognomen, he
was obliged to fall back on the feeble
substitute, Triple Alliance.
Both the Kaiser and the Roosevelt to-
matoes responded with alacrity to this
particular form of graft. The Kaiser
often produces fruit weighing one and a
half to two pounds, and will yield a
bushel to the plant on suitable soil. The
Roosevelt yields quite as heavily.
Both are pleasing in shape and color,
have a fine flavor and solid flesh, and
even in the largest specimens there is no
waste. They are excellent for all cook
ing purposes; e. g., canning, catsup, ]el-
ly, etc, since they are not watery, and
contain few seeds.
They are admirable for eating raw
since they lack the acid taste of ordinary
tomatoes, and are remarkably mild
Also they retain their juice after being
ut: They ship well. In short, so fal
as known, these are superior to any to
! matoes in existence.
The gardener believes that he has sue
ceeded in introducing the blood of egg
plants into tomatoes, and thinks that tn
eggplant is responsible for the grea
size of the new fruits, their mild flavor
solid flesh and deep red color.

paved with large cobble stones, and when
depressions occur they are filled with
loose stones, making road that it is tor
ture to ride over. So loose and water
soaked is the soil that heavily laden
dray in passing over one Of these paved
streets would noticeably -depress the sur
face, which would slowly return to its
former level after the dray had passed.
The old story of turning fiat boat up
side down and building three-story
building on it is not such an exaggera-
ton as might be supposed. The custom
house, of Quincy granite, was built upon
piles driven to great depth and the
blocks of granite were bolted together.
1t settled SO perceptibly, however, that
an upper story was omitted from the
original plan. The sidewalks are made
of large fiat stones, cemented together,
but these sometimes work loose and in
stepping upon them liquid black mud
may be spurted on you. These are ap-
propriately called ''dandy traps" The
digging of graves is of course out of the
question and the interments are in tombs,
so that the cemeteries are veritable cities
of the dead.

The state Of Oregon enjoys the dis

That Governor West, when ~ as

goes without saying. Governor Ben
son, because of his reelection as sec
retary of state. will be entitled to
make recommends dations, so far as his
Office is concerned, at least. and 1t
may be that he will give the legisla-
ture the benefit of a few observations
made during his occupancy of the
governors chair. Acting Governor
Bowerman, 1t is also understood. but
he was not in the city today and
could not be interviewed on the sub
ject, will also send message to the
legislature. and make recommenda-
tlons as to matters which he deems
of public interest and Importance.
Should he do so, the legislature will
have three messages TO consider
and all three will be from the chief
executive of the state.

w..ats Deer Protected.

sar. Stevenson believes that the
(deer should be better protected. and
recommended that a law be passed re-
ducing the open season by having the
close season begin October 1. instead
of November 1, as is now the case.
He further recommends that the
number Of deer allowed by law to be
killed be reduced, and suggests that
limit of three be fixed.
Discussing this subject further, he
says that law should be passed rel
ative to the hunting OF deer with
dogs. He says that hunters are prone
when exceeding the limit as to the
number OF deer to be killel to offer
the excuse that the dogs got beyond
control. and In this manner many
evasions of the law have been made.
He suggests that Il a law was passed
making 1t misdemeanor for the
owner, when his dogs run down too
many deer. that It will have a bene-
fetal effect.
He also believes that more string
emit law Ashonid1 be passed as to the
killing of elk, and suggests one
which has for its penalty imprison-
ment. ~' a
Need Trout Hatcheries.
He also says that the beavers in
the state are becoming over plentiful,
and are doing much damage and
suggests the removal OF the protec-
tion for these animals for year.
He contends that the present duck
limit is too high--35 for seven con-
secutive days. and he believes that 1t
should be reduced to 25. and also be-
lieves that q law should be passed
making 1t unlawful to sell ducks In
the open market.
Trout hatcheries are needed, he
says. and recommends the passage of
law at the coming legislative ses-
sion which win permit the taking of
money from the game and protection
fund for the installation OF hatcher
les.
SO far there has been an open sea-
son on the Rogue river, and he rec
ommends that law be enacted pro-
viding for closed season for trout
fishing on this stream.
Receipts and Expenditures.

given as s4422.S3 and the expendi-
lures at $41,4797, leaving balance
