OF DOING EXTRA WORK
Wants to Serve on Building Commits
sion. Despite Protest of At
Iorney General.

Secretary OF the Treasury McAdoo yes
terday told the House Committee on Pub
lie Buildings that he is not so greatly
overworked,' as alleged by the Attorney
General. that he cannot be a member of
the commission in charge Of the consturc-
ton of the new $3.OoOOo0 building for the
Department of Justice.
Mr.. McAdoo opposed the suggestion of
the Attorney General that he be displaced
on this commission by the Secretary OF

tended that the Treasury Department and
the supervising architect should have
charge OF the work and that the proposal
to call in army engineers was inadvisable.

with cOcOanut were also served. A
very pleasant evening was spent.
The following poem, written by Mrs.
w. T. Wiggin, was read by Mr..
Eldridge:
The links of sixty faithful years
Reach to the nuptial ring.
Which now with glad and grateful
tears
We celebrate and sing.
The locks are white that once we're
brown.
The sight is feebler grown,
But through the long and weary march
The heart has held it's own.
The many friends have come and gone,
The old have passed away
But love, immortal love, lives on
And blossoms mid decay.
This wedding pearl, ali how sweet.
The music of its bell.
To those whose hearts the vows
repeat,
Their lives have kept so we'll.
We give you joy, dear Christian
friends,
The heartiest we can give.
For when life's loving journey ends
There'll still be life to live.

Sixtieth Anniversary.

Sixty years ago. Jan. 4. 1854. I. D.
R. Collins and Mary E. Tenney were
united in holy matrimony at Corinth
by the Rev. Scion Martin. For sixty
years, through gladness and sorrow,
prosperity and want, they have lived
happily together, as man and wife.
They have overthrow the idea which
nowadays is so prevalent. that married
life is nearly always a failure. Their
health has been good and their lives
have been pure. Wherever they went
or with whom they came in contact
there was always a smile and good
word. They lived for 20 years in the
town of Wolcott on farm and while
there adopted their son, Edward
Collins. After leaving Wolcott they
came to Orleans and have lived here
40 years. They have been closely
connected with the Congregational
church ever since coming here and 35
years ago they celebrated their 25th
anniversary in the vestry of that
church. There were present then
three persons who attended the
sixtieth wedding anniversary held in
the Congregational church chapel.
They were DR.. Lewis Young, Mrs.
Mary Ordway and Mrs. O. H. Austin.
The SiXtieth mark of their welded
life was recognized and celebrated by
the ladies of the Congregational
church. In the afternoon of Jan. Sd,
they met many friends at their home
on Cliff street, and in the evening at
the church chapel there were 105
present who signed the register.
Music was furnished by the orchestra
and a program in which the orchestra,
DR. Collins, Mr. and Mrs. Kinney and
Miss Edith Lothrop participated, was
much appreciated. Words of congratu-
lation were spoken by the Rev. Mr..
Eldridge. and the Rev. Mr.. Smith. A
large bouquet of pink and white roses,

Bohemia's Rocky Mazs.

The Rocky maze of Prachov. near
Jacin. in northern Bohemia, is a veri-
table natural curiosity. 1t has been
we'll described as a gigantic freak in
stone" To enter the labyrinth with
out guide is perilous proceeding,
for an unwary adventurer would prob
ably speedily be lost in the tortuous
windings of the maze, where the paths
are so narrow and crooked and the
cliffs on the side so high that the ex-
plorer soon loses all idea of locality.
In days of fiery persecution the Nora
Wan and Bohemian brethren's secret
prayer meetings used to be held here,
just as the early Christians assembled
to worship in the catacombs. The
cliffs are honeycombed with cells, and
at the far end of the maze is a rock
castle, where in the old days robber
baron lived and took toll of all way
farers. The shape of some of the
rocks is very curious. There are, for
instance. the bishop and inter-" the
Madonna and the child" and many
others.-London Sketch.

Discretion,

There is no talent SO useful towards
Using in the world, or which puts men
more out of the reach of fortune, than
the quality generally possessed by the

without any other qualifications, pass
through the world in great tranquility
and with universal good treatment,
neither giving nor taking offense.-
