It came soon enough.
Norton was idling at his desk when
the city editor called him up to the
wicket.
General Henderson has just re-

He went forward to try the door, but
this time it was locked Jones, hows
ever, was not without resource The
house next door was vacant, and he
found a way into this, finally reaching
the roof. From this he jumped to the
other roof, found the scuttle open, and
crept down the stairs, flight after

Conspirators are often overeager,
too. So intent were the rascals upon
the business at hand that they did

The moment he turned away the
smile faded from Jones face, and with
the quickness and noiselessness Of .

A DEATH WHICH RECALLS BY-GONE
DAYS.

David A. WATSON, whose graphic ar
ticles on nautical themes in newspapers
and magazines many readers of the Ma
rine Journal will remember, has died at
his home IN Colorado Springs, COL, in
his thirtieth year. Tn end was sudden,
following serious operation. Mr.. Was
son had gone West several years ago
from his native home at Kittery Point,
Maine, to seek kindlier climate. His
health had seemed to be re-established,
and the new and fatal complication was
not foreseen. Throughout his residence
in Colorado, Mr.. WATSON had continued
to write very interestingly on the ocean
subjects with which he was familiar.
and his unusual information and clear
and graceful literary style had won
widening recognition. The cutting short
of promising career is keenly mourned
by the friends of Mr.. WATSON and his
parents. He leaves widow and faith
er and mother, Mr.. and Mrs. George S.
WATSON of Kittery Point, Maine. The
elder Mr.. WATSON is himself an artist
and writer of distinction.
The deceased was grandson of David
WATSON of West Brooksville, Maine, a
shipowner, shipbuilder. and the most
prominent citizen of that village, as the
writer remembers him many years ago.
He was familiarly called by his neil Oh
bors "Uncle David" and did more dur
ing his active business life on less CAPT.
tai than any man we ever knew. The
vessels he built and owned were the
means Of starting large number of the
young men of the town in the sea habit,
and many of them became eminent ship
masters in the good old days of sailing
vessels trading to every port in the mari
time world. The name of WATSON be-
fore and during the Civil war and sever
al years after was known throughout
the United States by shipping men as
few have been that have worked as in
dustriously and successfully as he did on
70 small an amount of capital He was
endeared to the writer from youth owing
to his having given us charge of small
sloop that we were able to make a little
money in, through carrying wood from
Bucks Harbor to Rockland for use in
the lime kilns, when we should have
been at school. Our parents, however,
needed the money more than we did the
education.-Capt. George L. Norton in

AROOSTOOK POTATOES.

The few farmers that are digging re-
port yields of from rs to 100 barrels an
acre. The rust is still doing some work,
although probably working less rapidly
than last week. A large yield for Aroos-
took is surely not expected this year.
Quite a number of potatoes are being
hauled to the house of James Dorsey at
Fort Fairfield this week, and he appears
to be the only shipper buying. He is
paying $l.00 barrel for stock which
appears to be good. The Cobblers are
looking and opening up particularly good
in quality. Fort Fairfield Review Aug.

A BILIOUS TONGUE

When your tongue is coated evenly, ali
over, with a whitish-yellow color and
your breath is bad the chances are that
you are bilious. If you also have indiges-
ton, constipation, headache and gen.
eral i'll feeling, there is scarcely q doubt
about it. Your liver needs attention.
Harsh cathartics which purge violently
and then produce reaction only aggra-
vate the trouble. Gentle assistance n
what nature needs to establish regular
habits of health and Pinklets, the little
pink laxative pills, free from harmful or
habit-forming drugs meet the require
ment most admirably.

State Pensions.

State Pension Agent C. G. English
saws that about 500, 600 will be disbursed
among needy veterans and their families
in Maine the present year. The average
sum paid is 81 month. Many of the
soldiers are receiving but small pensions
from the federal government, and even
this pittance from the State helps them
very materially. Agent English says
that the amount given by the State is
too small when all things are considered.
