MARK TWAIN'S TRIBUTE TO HIS
DAUGHTER.

In Harper's for January is printed the
last thing that Mark Twain wrote-a
touching and beautiful tribute to his
daughter Jean, who died just one year
ago. 1t was written on the day OF her
death. He says:
CLEANS dog has been wandering about
the grounds today, comradeless and for
lorn. have seen him from the windows.
She got him from Germany. He has tall
ears and looks exactly like a wolf He
was educated in Germany, and knows no
language but the German. Jean gave
him no orders save in that tongue. And
so, when the burglar-alar made fierce
clamor at midnight fortnight ago, the
butler, who is French and knows no Ger
man, tried in vain to interest the dog in
the supposed burglar. Jean wrote me,
to Bermuda, about the incident. 1t was
the last letter | was ever to receive from
her bright head and her competent hand.
The dog will not be neglected.
There was never kinder heart than
Jeans. From her childhood up she al
ways spent the most of her allowance on
charities of one kind and another. After
she became secretary and had her income
doubled she spent her money upon these
things with free hand. Mine, too, am
glad and grateful to say.
''She was loyal friend to all animals,
and she loved them all, birds, beasts, and
everything -even snakes-an inheritance
from me. She knew all the birds: she
was high up in that lore. She became
a member of various humane societies
when she was still little girl-both
here and abroad-and she remained an
active member to the last. She founded
two or three societies for the protection
Of animals, here and in Europe.
''She was an embarrassing secretary,
for she fished my correspondence out Of
the wasle-basket and answered the let
tiers. She thought all letters deserved
the courtesy of an answer. Her mother
brought her up in that kindly error"

CEN. c. w. TILDEN
For Department Commander. Maine c.A

For Department Commander. Maine GAR.
Although the am ual encampment Of
the Maine G. A. R., is over six months
off, candidates are either in the field or
being mentioned for the position Of de-
partment commander. Col. Charles S,
Crowell of Lewiston is an avowed candi-
date for the Office, and it is said will have
the support of the G. A. R., men in the
western part of the State. Col. Crowell
was candidate at the last convention.
but withdrew in favor of Rev. John W.
Webster, who was elected without on
position. It is claimed Col. CrowelPs
withdrawal greatly strengthened his
present canulo acy and that he will make
much stronger fight than he would had
he contested in the election at the last
encampment.
A prominent Bangor member of the
G. A. R., who is personally acquainted
with all the ''big guns" in that body,
stated last Thursday to Commercial re-
porter that the next encampment was a
little too far off for much electioneering
on the department commandership to be
done, but he said the Bangor veterans
would be there, undoubtedly, with some
good candidate.
Zone man, Bangor G. A. R. men
would like to see elected to the depart
ment commandership at the next encamp-
ment is Col. C. w. Tilden of Hallowell,"
said the Commercials informant, land
if we can get him to run for the office he
will win it hands down. There is no
more popular man in the Maine G. A. r.
than he and he would make fine COM
mander. Col. Tilden does not seek the
office but think if his friends persuaded
him he would consent to having his name
used at the next encampment.
Il Col. Tilden consents to run for the
office, he will undoubtedly have the linn
tied support of the posts in the eastern
and central sections Of the State, which
would be about enough to elect him.
Col. Tilden went out, at the outbreak
of the Civil War, as first lieutenant of
the Second Maine. Through conspicu-
GUS gallantry, he was subsequently pro-
NOTED to captaincy of that regiment.
He had not had the captains stripes
great while before he resigned from the
Second Maine to enter the 18th Maine
He was promoted to be brigadier gen.
eral. Col. Tilden was a fighter in every
sense of the word and in the course of
the war was captured twice. He was
one of the principal members of the
gang that used the famous tunnel of
Libby prison. Col. Tilden is now promi-
nently identified with the Hallowell
Granite Co. in Hallowell.

The American Magazine.

The general excellence of The Ameri-
can Magazine is what appeals to the
reader. Experts in the business say that
no periodical now published is attracting
more attention, or winning more enthu-
siastic approval, than The American
Magazine. 1t is publication which ex-
hibits unusual energy, liveliness, candor,
courage and humor. No one who reads
it can ever forget its distinctive quail

and delightful character" too.

writer's, all of whom are the ablest ex-
perts in the country in their special fields.
Another remarkable characteristic of
The American Magazine is the quality of
its fiction, plus the story quality that is

lar periodical requires that many of it's
most important articles be told in story
whole magazine fairly TEEN with down.
right human interest. The facts are
gathered and presented with the most
scrupulous attention to truth, but in the
presentation the art of tory-telling is
summoned, and the result is the finest
quality of journalism that exists-that
which both informs exactly and enter
tains wonderfully. Not many journal
lists of this rare double ability are stroll
ling up and down the world, yet several
of them are in the exclusive employ of
The American Magazine.
Three great original departments have
been created by The American Maya
zine Interesting People,. "The
interpreters House" and 1.-THE Pill
grim's Scrip Any particular number
of the magazine may contain a wonder
full fiction story, or beautiful picture,
Or great article that will interest you
more than these departments. And yet
those famous departments form great
attraction in the periodical. They are
always there-filled to the brim with
IDEAS, emotions, and aspirations. There
is curious flavor in them-s ingularly
new, pleasing and genuine.
On the whole The American Magazine
IS winning great favor because of its
sound tone of real optimism-not silly,
lat and fake optimism; but that op-
,imism which is founded on the solid
ruth that you ought to do your job we'll
wherever you are, and that if you do do |
your job we'll you will get some sort of I
'eward for it here on earth-not neces-
'arily money (Which most of US foolishly
Use as the only yardstiek of success,)
'ut perhaps an inner feeling of satisfac-
ion which, if your skin is not too tough,
nay be transferred and exhibited in a
gentle face-something decent to look
It, and not calculated to scare all the af-
ection out of those who come into daily
contact with you.
This is poor and inadequate state
nent which only partially covers the
round. 1t is only meant to be a sort of
ELECTION on what seems to be the NOV
ng spirit back of The American Maya
inc. 1t is nothing but an impression
which the writer feels after reading and
njoying The American Magazine for
ear or more.

AS preacher and pastor Mr.. Bowler
had good success. He preached the gos-
pei of Christ in many places, and for the
long term of nearly fifty years. He ex-
ercised his ministry chiefly in Maine, but
one of his pastorates was in Berlin, N.
h. His sermons were eminently practi-
cal and all the churches of which he was
pastoral there were seven of them
were enlarged while he served them, and
there was a corresponding enlargement
of the Sunday schools connected with
these churches. For soldiers in the
army he preached from platforms, from
army wagons, and sometimes while
mounted on horseback. His horse was
spirited one, and was called by the SOL
diers ''the live pulpit -
In the summer of 1891 he was appoint
ed soliciting agent for Bangor Seminary.
In the service of that institution he con-
tinued as its financial collector for nearly
a year and half. What he received
was, for the most part, ready money, but
In some instances he gained promises of
requests, so that after the decease of
the donors their gifts came into the
treasury Of the Seminary. He was es-
pecially fond of pastoral work and in his
advanced age he continued to be active
in the pastoral service. For about thir-
teen years he served as visitor and pas
tors assistant for the Hammond street
church in Bangor. He took deep in
terest in the study of the Sacred Script
ures. He gathered many children into
Sunday schools. He organized and
maintained Home Department and con-
tinued to manage its interests till he was
more than ninety years Of age. This
Home Department was one of the lar
gest in the State of Maine.
