CAUSE STILL MYSTERY.
Long Delayed Report Upon Annabes
sacook Wreck Made Public.

The long delayed report of the Rail-
road commissioners upon the Maine
Central wreck, which occurred iaSt
June, about a mile east OF Annabessa =
cook station, was made pupHc'
Wednesday morning. The report
which fails to fix the cause OF the ac'
cident is as follows:
ION June s, 1911 an accident occurred
on the Maine Central Railroad quar-
ter of Il mile east of Annabessacooh
station, in which the tender ana TOUR
of the cars attached to tram NO. ~
which was due to leave Portland al
11.15 A. NJ, were derailed. The man
clerk was the only person injured.
Believing that the public interests
required it. the railroad commissioners
made thorough investigation INTO
the cause of the accident. They ex-
amined the road bed. the ties, the rails
and engine No. 456 which involved in
the accident and have given careful
consideration TO the testimony of wit
nesses and experts While theories
are entertained in relation to 1t the
commissioners are unable to deter
mine and report the cause of the acct
dent.

THIS SHAMPOO WILL
PREVENT BADNESS

Badness" writes Mrs. Mae Mar
tyn, in the Los Angeles Press, lis
frequently traced to injurious sham
poos. Soaps and mixtures contain
ms free alkali have tendency to
rob the scalp of its necessary OIL This
causes a dry. harsh, itchy condition,
dardruff appears and the hair follicles
are deprived of sufficient nourish-
ment, then the hair becomes brittle
and falls out
"A delightfully."- soothing and cleans
ing shampoo can be had with plain
canthrox, teaspoonful of which dis
solved in a cup of hot water is plenty
for a thorough cleansing of hair and
scalp. This dissolves dust and dam
duff and excites the tissues to healthy
action; rinsing leaves the hair and
scalp wonderfully clean. Canthrox
skampoos will make 'stringy,' lifeless
hair soft, fluffy and lustrous, even en-
couraging a bountiful growth

EASTPORT ENTHUSIASTIC
Over Reorganization of Its Present
Militia Company.

Eastport people particularly former
members of Co. !, End Infantry. and
the old frontier guards, are very en-
thuslastic over the reorganization of
the present company, according to in
formation received at the office of Ad.
Jutant General Dill. A veteran asso-
citation has been formed in that city
10 be known as the Frontier Guards
Veterans Association and IS exmem-
hers Of the company attended the
meeting at which the organization
was perfected.
Noel 3. Mutt former captain of The
Frontier Guards is very enthusiastic
in regard 10 this Veterans Associa-
ton and in letter 10 the PASSPORT
Sentinel says:
THE writer believes that a Veter-
ans association viii not only result
in keeping PASSPORTS company alive
but will be a source in the future Of
much pleasure 10 its members. Ar
rangements could be made for a re-
union of greater part of its over
400 exmembers at home and away
sometime in the summer. when | have
no doubt all would strive TO attend,
wherever they may be located; such
reunions would be second only i'm in
terest to those of war veterans. Old
times, musters and familiar incidents
could be talked over and old comrades
meet who have not seen each other
for many years.
THE greater part of the credit for
this move should be given to Col. New
comb. who has had in mind the form
alton of such an organization for sew
eral years. He is also interested in
keeping the military spirit in his ma
tive city with the rest of us who con-
slider that one of the needs of our
country is reserved force to fell back
upon in time of need. In peaceful
times the militia is very apt to be
thought useless, vet when they are
needed they are sure to be very val
liable and without some such reserve
the country would be in bad shape,
as we all know"

a, M.

Parker l.. Harrison of Caribou, State
highway commissioner, has returned
from Casco where he made a survey
of a section of one mile of the road
between Poland Springs and Webb's
Mills, which is on the direct road from
Poland Springs TO the White Noun
tains, in view Of improvement.
The improvements upon this mile of
road under the method which Com
missioner Hardison has recommended
could probably be done for $1,000
While no new road is to be construct
ed some improvements are to be made
for the entire distance of the road IL
The plans proposed are to be carried
cut. The work would be in the nature
- widening the road in its narrow
places, cutting and grading some un-
usually sharp hills and the Installing
& proper draining together with the
necessary culverts.
The proposal made by Hiram Kicker
y Sons, the proprietors of the Poland
Spring House, is that they viii con-
tribute $500. provided the town of
Casco will contribute like amount,
and the sum OF 5000 is appropriated
oy the State OF Maine for its share
Of the joint fund.
Commissioner Hardison. while at
Casco, also examined the bridge across
Crooked river between Webbis Mills
and Caseo which is located partly IN
the town of Naples and partly in the
town of Casco. He made estimate, at
the request of the officials of these
towns, OF the cost of new steel
bridge with granite abuttments.

that was manifested at the meeting there
seems little doubt that the fair will be
put in good condition once more, fact
which hundreds will be pleased to learn,
and that the old Windsor fair next year
will be a three-day exhibition that will
bear favorable comparison with any of
