Moose Now Displayed.

man Wilson declares himself very proud
of these in THEN new walnut finish, re-
construction having been accomplished
from the old cases in which the Maine
battleflags We're stored before the re-
building of the State House
In the new cases are a collection of
flint lock muskets which We're surrendered
by Gen. Burgoyne. in the Revolutionary
war. Birds and Names fur bearing an
imals also occupy places.
Mr.. Wilson is hoping that the state will
furnish an appropriation with which to
place glass about the fine group of bull
COW and calf moose recently added to the
collection. He also recommends an APP
preparation of $500 be made for the smu-
scum. He wants to construct along the
east side of the room an aquarium ir
which can be displayed living, SWIM
ming specimens of the fish which inhabit
the waters of Maine. He believes it would
