keith's Boston Theatre.

Of all the sensational features
which have been presented at keith's
during this season, probably there
has been not one that Will create
more talk than LIE Compile, who
comes next week. This man, who is
now making his first appearance In
the East, has been the marvel OF
scientists everywhere, but no one
has been able to explain his wonder
full feats. He seems to be, and is
impervious to fire and heat. LIE
Compile takes two carbons at white
heat and bites off the ends of them
with his teeth. He explodes gun
powder with his bare hands, and
chews heated sealing wax, aud drinks
molten metal, lead and solder, like
water. He does all these things In
full view of the audience and they
have been done in private for medi-
cal men and others who doubted him
and thought there was some trickery
involved. LIE Compile himself refus-
es to explain, IL he can, how he does
these marvellous feats.

Packing company each year. This is
a great benefit to the farmers as
about 200 acres of corn are required
for this amount The Beale pack

beans. etc. This concern also does a
great deal of custom work for diff

Home Seekers.

The Grand Trunk railway are plan
ming excursions to the Canadian
Northwest. These have been christ
ened Home Seekers Excursions, and
bring to mind the thought that there
are thousands of new homes yet to
be found in this ever growing country
particularly along the line Of the
Grand Trunk Pacific.
The Grand Trunk Pacific has ac-
uuired sufficient land to make near
ly 100 town cities between Winnipeg
and Edmonton. The lots are now
placed on market for sale, and are
being rapidly picked up
Since last September between Win
nipeg and Edmonton, the Grand
Trunk Pacific have been operating
passenger and freight service. This
is distance of 703 miles, and all
along the line there are villages and
towns springing up with surprising
activity.
There are four or five divisional
points within the mileage that are
showing marked development and
would we'll engage the special atten-
ton of those seeking home or an
Improvement of their financial con-
dition.
These excursions will be run on
April 5, 10, May 3, II, 81, June IA, 2S

months of date on Issue.

Wares to Wrong Party.
portland Argus

In forwarding canned" editorials
in praise of Senator Hale to the Som
erset dependent Reporter, the Hale
press bureau sent their wares to the
wrong party. Referring tosa long, fiat
tering editorial on Senator Hale and
the State of Maine which appeared
in various State newspapers, the in
surgent Somerset paper is inconsider-
ate enough to remark:
That editorial Is probably the same
identical piece of merchandise which
was offered the publishers of The
Independent-Rep by certain Hale
managers, the same to be paid for at
so much per inchi lnasmuch as ii
was offered to us at so much per inch
we shall presume that the same Offer
was made to other newspapers which
have seen fit to spread it before the
eyes of their readers.
Frankly, this is the kind of canned
goods that The Independent-Repo
does not like worth a cent. We do
not like to have our editorials manu-
featured in Washington, shipped
through Maine by the way of Bangor
and then distributed at so much per
inch to the honest-minded citizens of
Somerset county. We do not believe
the people of Somerset county take
kindly to this sort of business.
Canned" Hale editorials at adver-
Using rates rejected with scorn; con-
gressional packages of seeds re-
turned by Maine Changers with con-
tempt and contumely, and the dickens
to pay generally. Surely the amazed
Maine delegation at Washington
must feel that the good old Republi
can State of Maine" as they are ac-
customed to style it, is drifting into
