LONDON, May Z. King Edward VII.
died at 1145 o'clock last night. The
cause of death is given as pneumonia
following bronchitis.
In this country kings and queens are
judged upon their merits, regardless of
their kingly or queenly prerogatives, and
Queen Victoria was universally recog
nized not only as wise ruler but as a
noble woman When on her death in
1901 she was succeeded by the late King
Edward he was overshadowed by the
long and successful reign of his mother
and was subjected to much adverse and
unjust criticism. But during the nine
years of his reign he not only won the
love of his people and demonstrated his
fitness for the position to which he was
called, but won as we'll the esteem and
confidence of the world at large. He is
succeeded on the throne by his second
son, who will reign as George V. He is
known as the "sailor prince" is vice
admiral of the British navy, and has
toured the world with a squadron of
warships. He is hampered, as was his
father by the great, long reign of Queen
Victoria, having been overshadowed since
his birth by the personality of his father;
but, like him, it sbelieved he will demon
strate his ability and win the confidence
and regard of his subjects.

Breathe Hyomei for Two Minutes and
Stuffed Up Head Will Vanish.

If you want to get relief from catarrh, cold
in the head or from an irritating cough in the
shortest time breathe Hyomei (pronodnce it
High-o-me).
1t will clean out your head in two minutes
and allow you to breathe freely.
Hyomei will cure a cold in one day, it will
relieve you of disgusting snufies, hawking,
splitting and offensive breath in week.
Hyomei is made chiefly from eucalyptol, a
soothing, healing, germ killing antiseptic, that
comes from the eucalyptus forests of inland
Australia where catarrh, asthma and consump-
ton were never known to exist
Hyomei is pleasant and easy to breathe. Just
pour few drops into the hard rubber inhaler,
use as directed and cure is almost certain.
A complete Hyomei outfit, including inhaler
and one bottle OF Hyomei costs only sl:oo At a.
Co.'s, who guarantee it. If you already own
an inhaler you can get an extra bottle of Hyo-
mel, liquid, for only &c.

place like it in Waldo county will treat.
lido not wish any paper controversy, nor will
l reply to any Of the Trades that may appear in
reply to this. but wish the people to know
just little of the other side and to know just
how sincere the mayor is in his sympathy. If
he feels so very bad, and wants to help me, he
might pay me back the twenty dollars that
went out of my family to buy Nutriola stock.

Some laboring men were discussing the
high cost of living and one of them was
heard to remark:
Say, do you know what | was doing
when Cleveland was President? was a
sandwich man tramping the streets car
rying advertising signs, and ID glad
to get the Job at that. Prices were low
enough, but the devil of it was to earn
enough to keep me and the old lady alive.
Now m getting 81 day, and we don't
have to go ragged anr hungry. Maybe
I'd be kicking more if | hadn't seen the
other side of it.
When Cleveland was President Q885-9)
Belfast had soup kitchen, and laboring
men were glad to get anything to do at
any price. Now, and for some time past,
it is difficult to get anybody to do any
4hing at any price. That is the difference
IN conditions under Democratic and Re
publican administrations.
If Elmer Baker had not fallen off the
roof of the Burgess store on Main street,
February 2lst, there would have been no
murder in Belfast that night, the county
would have been saved the expense of a
trial costing 81, 900 or more, and the many
who frequented the court room during
the trial would perhaps have found the
time hang heavy on their hands. Ira T.
Grady was going down Main street to
take the 800 p. m. train for Unity and
was directly opposite when Baker ac-
. companied an avalanche of snow and ice
from the roof to the ground. Grady
naturally stopped few minutes to as
certain the result of the accident and
thereby missed his train. The subse-
quent events have been told in the re-
ports Of the supreme court proceedings.
The result of the trial disprovese the
charge that murder was committed.
. Grady was acquitted, and Bennett, in
dicted with him for the murder of Mrs.
Thomas, is held for manslaughter. There
is one fact so clearly established that it
cannot be controverted by expert testi-
mony or the most eloquent pleas-the
woman is dead.

Gift Day for the W. C. T. U. in Lincoln,
Neb., resulted in $500 in cash and seventy
hundred in agitation. The whiskey men were
mad and patrolled the streets trying to intimi-
date the women, but their work only increased
the admiration of the better classes for the
W. c. T. U. and woke up many to the real
situation. The badges were worn by men,
women and children, and are still seen on the
streets. 1t was worth all the work in creating
the enthusiasm and sentiment, and the money
goes long way to keep up the expenses of
the campaign for a county local option law,
which is on. One check for $40 and IS bill
were received, but most of the gifts were
dimes. In Beresford, S. D., one member of
over 80 years secured $11.sO (the Oldest col
lector in Belfast was the one who secured the
most) and in all $3.50 were raised by this
Union. A Pennsylvania town reports $115.sO
and 1--WE might easily have had $500 if more
had worked A Union in Ohio says, 1--WE feel
it worth the effort and hope to install foun-
tain with our share of the Gift Day proceeds"
Any Union having tags left can continue to
canvass for members and TO raise money, re-
porting before June LIST. And any Union which
has not observed the day should speedily set
about it. 1t can be done, somehow All re-

A SOLAR ECLIPSE
How II Can Happen, Considering the

How II Can Happen, Considering the
Size Of the Moon.
1t has been asked how a total eclipse
Of the sun can possibly happen, as the
moon is smaller than the sun
A self luminous body, like the sun.
scatters light In all directions, and
when the rays fall upon a nonlumi-
nous body they are intercepted from
the space Immediately behind 1t, and
shadow is thrown a certain distance
In that direction. Another celestial
body. deriving also its light from the
sun, will upon entering the area over
which this shadow is cast be de-
prived Of its luster either wholly or IN
part. This is what happens to the
earth In a solar eclipse. The sun and
earth revolve In the same plane Of the
ecliptic, and the moon, being but slight.
ly inclined to that plane, interposes
between them once In every revoiu-
ton, so that 1t happens that they are
sometimes all three In the same line
When this occurs a portion Of the
moons opaque sphere is seen project
cd upon the suns face, intercepting its
light, proportionate with the magm-
tude of the eclipse, which depends
upon the distances separating the CEN
tiers Of the sun and moon at the ma
die of the phenomenon. Only In csses
where these centers precisely CORE
spond can there be a total obscure
