patton of that shutdown they stored up vast quantities of coal. Instead of shortage there is an actual over- supply. The increased pay to the miners amounts to 3 h cents per ton, which isa considerably less than the 30 cents per ton the trust will save by refusing the usual discounts. It is the same old routine of exacting a large tribute from the public on the strength of small advance to the workers. Thus the public pays not only for the strike" which was not, strictly speaking. a strike, but rather, a temporary shutdown pending re- adjustment of contracts with the miners, but for the increased pay to the miners as well and a large sum in addition.

The fishers also secure large quantities of 'peelers'' and busters" as crabs just beginning to moult are called, and these are kept in floats until the moulting process is complete and they become the val uable softshell crab. Seaweed and ice are used in the packing of the latter for shipment, and if properly done only a few die en route to market
 The Carabus, as the crab was known to the ancients, was highly valued by the epicures of old Rome The crab was symbol of the early astrologers In former times the crab was also used as a medicinal agent.

Pittsfield Man Killed.

A terrible accident occurred. in
Pittsheld Station, Sept 1, when Adel-
bert Witham of the western part of
the town, lost his life When Train
No. %, which reaches Pittsfield at
S14, arrived In the station, Mr.. With
am was discovered on the track with
one arm torn from the body, his skull
crushed and suffering from other in
juries. Local doctors gave all pos
sible aid and when Train No. > arrived,
at 9.l5, he was taken to a hospital in
Waterville, where he died at ; o'clock,
Thursday morning.
Mr. Witham was returning from the
fair in Waterville, and it is thought
that he attempted to leave the car be-
fore the train stopped, and in some
way was thrown beneath the wheels
of the moving train. He was the son
of Rebecca and the late Moses Witham
and beside the mother, two brothers,
John Witham and Alyah Witham,
both of Bingham, and one sister, Miss
Mae Witham of Pttsfield, survive.
His age was about p years.

Teachers Salaries

The Maine Teachers Quarterly is
leading the fight for higher salaries
for Maine teachers. The last issue oil
the magazine contains the following
editorial:
The editor of the Kennebec Journal,
Augusta, has joined the ranks of those
who see the imperative need of higher
salaries for public school teachers. In
a recent editorial he says, When Jan
itors. walters, cafe. bankers, or porters,
are able to earn more of this worlds
goods than are school teachers 1t is
mighty poor encouragement for the
student to put in years of hard study,
spending the Accommodations of pa
rents, to properly fit themselves for
these professions" He then goes on
10 cite facts gathered from the report
OF the United States Commissioner Of
Education which shows that the aY-
erage annual salary for teachers in
II states is less than $500; in eight 1t
is less than $780, in two less than
$3.50. The complaint of educators is
that the service is bound to deteriorate
under such conditions; that it Is i'm
possible to secure the services of men
and women of ability and scholarship
training and experience, at such sal
aries.' Indeed, it is impossible, and
that is the one hopeful sign. Here is
a splendid illustration: A certain
trustee of a Well-known Academy has
been securing the countryside for
bright, intelligent, well trained Prin-
oiPal" to head the Academy. He Of
fered the stupendous salary of 5000 the
first year, with an increase up to $1100
as the heavy years OF labor dragged
On. Four of his bright, intelligent,
well-trained young men" have con-
ferred with him and have, In happy
succession, turned the offer down!
Why? Because they were able to COM
mand better positions and better sal
aries elsewhere. A second-rate man
will eventually be found to head the
school and at the end of few years
il will be a fifth-rate Academy. The
old-time Trustee, dreaming of another
day, is reaping the rewards of the I'M
progressive school official. And mo-
ment's reflection will show hundreds
and hundreds of like individuals who
have been put upon school boards be-
CAUSE they represent a certain type of
citizen whose face is turned to the
distant past 1t is an encouraging
sign here in Maine to have some of
our enterprising newspapers discuss
aopics of interest, and vital interest,
to the teachers of the State.

ANOTHER FATAL ACCIDENT.

Another frightful accident, which
resulted fatally, occurred here, late
Thursday night, when Harry r. Ames,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Roscoe w Ames.
who reside In the Webb district, was
accidently killed by a Maine Central
engine near the Farnham Brook
crossing. His body was found, early
Friday morning by Section Hand Luce,
who notified the authorities and Cor
oner Charles Lawry of Fairfield, who
arrived here on the morning train
and had the remains moved to the un-
dertaking rooms OF J. n. Martin,
where an inquest was held.
Mr.. Ames had been to Waterville,
Thursday, to attend the fair in COM
pany with relatives and friends. 1t is
said that in the crowd, the party be-
came separated and when they reach
ed home the young man started for
his home, taking the favorite route
of many who live in his neighborhood,
the Maine Central track. AS the body
apparently had not been run over, it
is supposed that when the train was
approaching, he stepped to one side
to let it pass, and not estimating the
distance correctly, was struck by the
engine of special freight that passed
through here shortly after the pas
senger special that arrived here about
II o'clock p. NJ, with eXcursionists
from Waterville.

The late Edward Ware of Water
Vile, formerly of Athens, was a high
ly honored citizen of his adopted
city He was quiet, unobtrusive, and
minded his own affairs. 1t is told of
him that he gave of his substance
literally even going so far as to seek
out the deserving His giving was al
ways without public comment because
he would have it that way. He was
invited many times to hold offices of
public trust but he preferred above
all else the quiet of his own home
and the company of a splendid family
of boys. The manner of his living sug-
gests striking contrast; it was of a
type of which the average community
sees altogether too little.
