In an editorial on the bequest of Mr..
White to the Belfast free library the
Boston Globe assumes that the testator
was actuated by spirit of revenge.
That we believe to be wrong assump-
ton. Mr.. White was not revengeful. A
more kindly man never lived. A business
transaction of several years ago in which
E. F. Hanson figured no doubt influenced
him, and with many others he was justly
indignant at the action of the mayor with
regard to the trustees of the library. We
have heard of others who had intended
making public requests who have decided
not to do so because of existing conditions
in Belfast.

Winslow Homer, who died September
18th at his home in Scarboro, is pro-
nounced the greatest artist America has
produced. He was born in Boston, Feb
ruary "a, 1888, but for many years his
home has been in Maine and it was here
that he painted the pictures, coast scenes
and marines, that brought him world
wide fame. Of two of his well known
paintings it is said: In ''Kissing the
Moon," he grasped the force of the
heaving swell; in "All's WE'LL" he rem
dered vivid the swirl and hiss of the
sliding foam; and in ''The Maine Coast. :"
he knew the atmosphere about the wet,
black rocks, the breakers and the snow,
the rain-squall clouds, and almost the
very smell of seaweed and water.
The present Commissioner of Agricul-
ture, Hon. A. W. Gilman of Foxcroft,
who will no doubt be succeeded by a
Democratic politician, is something of
farmer. When asked by the editor of
Turf, Farm and Home what he produced
on his big Foxcroft farm that could be
called his leading crop" he replied that
he did not think he had any leading crop,

Lincoln Park Has Two With
Blooms After Forty-Five
Years of Growing,
TO BE, Respondent.
Specimens Presented by the
Late Potter Palmer OF
Long Ago.

At forty five years of life and
twenty-seven years of coddling' win
ter and summer, two century plants
in Lincoln Park are beginning to
bloom on the knoll on either side OF
the south entrance of the conserva-
terry.
One has put forth a dozen yellow
Euskes, which add novel color to
the Cayety to the plants. By the
middle or latter part of this month
both big specimens of the Agave
Americana will have become resplen-
dent.
They have achieved their mission
in the world of Flora, both will die
and be cast out of the park picture.
GIFT OF POTTER PALMER.
Twenty-seven years ago these
plants were donated to the park by
the late Potter Palmer, WHO retain
ed two similar ones for his home.
Two or three years ago the plants
in the Palmer yard blOssomed'
Thousands of Chicagoans saw them,
and many visitors from afar went
out to the Lake Shore drive mansion
to see the blooms. The other two
now have become Chicago's floral
siheadliners."
When the plants were taken to
the park in 1885 they were so small
that one man could carry them out
into the open in summer and back to
the warm atmosphere of the conser-
VAtory in winter. Now each is
nearly twenty feet high, with leaves
q yard and half long and inches
thick. More than a dozen men are
required to bear them out on the
knoll a few weeks ago. In all prob
ability they will never go back under
the glass roof, because the Towering
is the signing of the death warrant.

that needed her so sorely. 1t was
the Lords doings. and as such right
in her sight. She was cheerful, low
ing and sympathetic to the end; and
when deathcame, with an unfalterine
trust she wrapped the drapery Of
her couch about her and lay down to
pleasant slumbers.
Asleep in Jesus" truly she is; for
her faith was steadfast and sure; her
trust unfailing, and she knew in
whom she had believed.
o, blessed sleep! Let US not wish
to awaken her, for latter life's fit
full fever she sleeps WE'LL" No more
pain. anxiety and sorrow. All is well.
AS Wordsworth says:
Our birth is but a sleep and a for
getting;
The soul that rises with US, our life's
star,
Hath had elsewhere it's setting, and
cometh from afar; >
Hence in a season of calm weather,
Though inland far we be,
Our Souls have sight of that i'm
mortal sea
Which brought us hither, . .
And hear the mighty waters rolling
evermore.
What though the radiance which
was once so bright
Be now forever taken from our
sight
We will grieve not, rather find
strength in what remains behind;
In the soothing thoughts that spring
Out of human suffering;
In that faith that looks through
DEATH"
INTO the great beyond, where the
beacon lights of Hope and Faith,
twin stars, point the way by which
we may follow whittier our dear ones
nave gone, and teach US to wait for
that joyful reunion.
Rest in peace, dear friend of my
youth and age, and when the lone
clear CALI comes for me, may |,
ike you, "see my Pilot face to face,
