Speaking of good trades. an Au-
susta man said yesterday that he sup
posed that q trade he made short
time ago was one Of the best that had
been consummated in the city for
some time. He then went on to say
that about two weeks ago he bought
bale of pressed straw. paying some
thing like $3.50 for it. and had it de-
livered at his home. Last week he
had occasion to use some of the straw
and taking out what he wanted he
told a man who was working for him
that he had better put the rest up IN
the barn chamber, which the man pro-
ceeded to do, but when he opened the
bale he was surprised to find in the
middle of it nearly new single har-
ness. The presence of the harness in
the middle of that bale Of straw has
rot been explained hut the supposition
that the man who pressed the stra "
may have secreted the harness therein
for future personal use and then neg
lected to mark the bale so that he
could tell it from the others, and so
lost it. The purchaser having no
horse. sold the harness. and now con-
siders that when he bought that bale
Of straw he made a pretty good spec,

er attaching the rope to its trunk.

which the doctors called eczema. The

to keep me from tearing my face on ac-
count OF the great itching and burning.
They gave me one bottle of Hoods Sar-

A fine example of the comparatively
modern science of preserving valuable
old papers in found in the manner in
which some Of the wills are filed at the
Office of Ralph W. Leighton. register of
probate for Kennebec county. One will
in particular is that of Sylvester Gardiner
of Boston. this will having been made
May /, 1876. BY the will lot of land
in West Gardiner and vicinity was con-
veyed, and the land was afterwards split
up into pieces and sold. Many people
in looking up their titles have had occa-
sion to refer to this document so that
by constant handling the will, which was
written on ordinary paper. became torn
in several places. Mr.. Leighton sent the
will to concern in Boston and there
a piece of transparent silk was placed
upon both sides Of each sheet of the
document and the several sheets were
bound into book. The document is
now in an excellent state Of preserva-
ton and may be handled without being

Baltimore, Md, May 1S.-A police
woman, Mrs. Alice Stebbins Wells, OF
Los Angeles, Cal, was given close at
tention by a special section of the
National Conference of Charities and
Correction here, today, when she told
of policewomen's work.

cule as the acme of the absurd and
of derision still reverberates, there has
grown a policewoman movement as
great in strength and size as any re-

AS the latest list Of cities which
have added regular policewomen as an
integral part of the oplice department
for outside work, she named Chicago
as leading with 20; Los Angeles, Bal

POL|CEWOMAN WELLS
Tells ABOUT HER WORK

Y, and Dos Moines, Ia. as places
where a policewoman was paid from
private funds, with approval Of the
chief. In addition there were numer-
Gus cities which employed police ma
irons.
She had found upon investigation
that the United States led in this
departure. for Notwithstanding reports
Of the employment of policewomen in
foreign countries, she had been un-
able to learn that they were officially
employed abroad except in Norway;
and in England in a voluntary way.
The need of women on the police
force had arisen, she said from the
fact that industrial and social energy
no longer centered in the home, but
has given us an age in which men,
women and children eat, sleep. work
and play together as never before in
the worlds history"
Mrs. Wells was the first police
woman in Los Angeles, the post be-
ing created upon her initiative. Il
had charge of this work." she said,
"and know two things: That girls
and women in trouble have right to
the sympathetic help of women Off
GERS; and that men officers have a
right to exemption from what may
be constant temptation to the weak,
and from enforced and unnecessary
association with those who, II resent
full, may cast a cloud upon the repu-
tation Of the most exemplary. The
best officers are the most reluctant to
undertake alone the handling of girls,
and will sometimes resign in prefer
ence."
Mrs. Wells told how the police
womans work took her into the home
to talk to mother and daughter as no
man could hope to do, and of nu-
merous other police activities in which
women engaged.
Il would not give the impression
she said that the policewoman' S
work is silver lining or an orna-
mental fringe to the very dark clouds
Of law enforcement for which a po-
liceman stands in the average mind.
She is an integral part of the depart
ment and stands for law enforcement,
but her largest and best work Is to
prevent, for the securing of obedience
to law is the very best form Of law
enforcement.
Does the policewoman make ar
rests? is question asked. Indeed
she does-but as few as possible, and
those in keeping with the spirit of
the work. She does not try to do the
traditional work of the policeman on
the street, but when a girl is to be
brought in and held for any reason,
it is right for the policewonlan to go
and bring her in. If she has to sum-
mon to court the proprietor Of place
Of amusement, she does SO. These con-
stitute arrests, yet are no more spec
tacular or unwomanly than the wor.s
daily performed by other business and
professional women"
| Concluding with an advocacy Of the
extension Of State Police. Mrs. Wells
saw still further work for police
women. She believes they would some

READ FATHERS SERMON.
Squirrel Tourist Finds Interesting
Item in Omaha Paper.


Mr. and Mrs. Josiah S. Maxcy OF
Gardiner, our well-known Squirrels
have recently returned from a trip
through the South and West. They
had a most enjoyable tour and
pleasant return Although they
travelled very many miles they proved
again that the world is not so very
large, for in coming through Omaha,
on April 10, Mr. MaXcy was very
fcrcibly reminded Of Boothbay Harbor
while reading the Omaha Evening
Bee. The following interesting item
is what he found in it. He very kind
ly made the clipping and sent It L.
The Register. We wonder if anyone
here was present and heard the ser
mon delivered the first time. just after
the close Of the war, fifty years ago:
AN impressive observation of the
iftieth anniversary Of Abraham Lin
coins death occurred Sunday in the
Plymouth Congregational church. The
pastor Of the church, Rev. F. W.
Leavitt, preached the same sermon
that his father preached fifty years
ago. His father was Rev. William
Leavitt, and in 1865 he had a church
in Boothbay Harbor, Me. On the
first Sunday following the death OF
Lincoln by the hand Of the assassin
Rev. William Leavitt preached this
sermon. Rev. Mr.. Leavitt had the
written manuscript Of the sermon
which his father preached, and he
read it to his congregation. 1t was a
stirring sermon, in which Christian
forbearance sought almost to find
voice, while the human mind dwelt on
the deed which had been done at
Washington.
Abraham Lincoln's place in the
hearts Of the people Of the North was
very large at that time even, ana
many believed, in the heat and pas
sion of the moment, that the assassi.
nation had been ordered by the lead
ers of the Confederacy. The congre-

was, perhaps was for the best, as
seeming calamities always are. said
the pastor, to those who love God"

.RuM1R that RIkER
JAYNES DRUG STORE
MAY Be OPENED HERE
Lacks Confirmation But at the
Same Time Establishment of
Such a Store Is Considered
a Possibility

A rumor was current on the street
Tuesday that the Riker-Jaynes Co.
had secured either by purchase or by
lease the three story brick building at
the northwest corner of Water and
Bridge streets formerly owned by the
Mason heirs but at present the prop
erty of the Augusta Real Estate Asso-
citation, and would later open in the
quarters now occupied by the Atlantic
Express Co. and the Capital Ice Co..
one of its chain of drug stores, but
confirmation of the truth Of the rum
or could not be secured.
Inquiry on the part of the Journal,
however, brought forth the fact that
the Riker- Jaynes people have in the
past been in correspondence with the
owners of the building in question rel
alive to securing it as a headquar-
tiers for one of their drug stores but
that nothing of a definite nature re-
garding the matter had as yet been
reached. 1t is considered probable
that with the building by the Lewis
ton, Augusta & Waterville Street
Railway of the proposed freight shed
on Bowman street the Atlantic Ex-
press Co. will have an office in that
