1t Is now expected that the final dis
tribution of the funds of the defunct
Saco Savings Bank will be made be-
fore the end of the year. The $500 de-
positors have already received Sc 2-3
per cent of their money and the re-

do say that the final amount will be
larger than was expected.

Because Failed.


elizabeth Powers Merrill.)
Because I failed, Q God,
To do the things I hoped to do,
To make the dreams I dreamed come true
To fashion steps that lead to you;-
0 should then be cast aside
In pain and sorrow to abide
Swept here and there by hostile tide?
Because l failed, Q God,
To climb the ladder of success
My efforts day by day grown less
Until l made of life mess:
That cannot be the reason why
l should not have chance to Try
And to make good. before die?
Because I failed. o God.

Though fall the rain and binding hail
Thoug h die. the sun and stars grow pale.
There is no failure Anywhere!
The scales of Justice balance fair
That Man fails not, who still can dare
Hank back to Oct. 8, 1866. by means
of the following recorded on the fol-
lowing day by the Portland Advertis-
err:
The Eons of Portland won bali
game from the Cushnocs of Augusta
at the Gardiner fair yesterday after
noon 90 to q. BY winning the game
yesterday the Eons maintained the
State championship.
The life Of lobster warden is not
all fun, as is evidenced by the follow
ing:
A Boothbay Harbor fisherman was
boarded by a State fish commissioners
crew Just as he was leaving the Dam
ariscotta river the other day, two
deputy wardens and two specially ap-
pointed helpers being put on board, the
idea being to annex any and all short
Holsters that might be found. The
wardens intended. on locating the
shorts, if any. to put into Boothbay
Harbor with the craft and left their
outside wearing apparel on their own
boat, but the captain Of the fisherman
thought differently and headed for the
open sea. The wardens were probably
not invited to occupy the first cabin
and the sea air at night is often
chilly. The craft was later seen off
Monhegan and as the home port is
said to be Portsmouth the passage was
undoubtedly a "cool' one in more than
one respect.

THE SUBMARINE EXPLOSION.


The explosion which wrecked the
submarine E-2 in the Brooklyn navy
yard, killing four men and seriously
iniuring ten. sharply directs attention
10 the need for the research labor
atory and experimental station recon-
mended by the naval consulting board.
headed by Mr. Edison.
There is likely to be a dispute about
the cause of the explosion, which had
such tragic consequences. The state
ment that it was caused by an accum-
ulation of hydrogen gas. due to the new
Edison submarine storage batteries, is
not admitted 10y the Edison engineers.
IL is a curious fact that there is usually
the same difficulty in fixing the cause
and responsibility of such explosions.
Whatever may be the cause and who
ever should bear the responsibility. all
the circumstances show the need for
better facilities for the experts of the
United States Navy The inventions of
genius should not be served hot from
the inventors hands TO the warships
Tor which they have been designed.
They should be FIRST tried out at an
experimental station equipped and
maintained by the government
The research laboratory and expert

son board. would cost a few million
dollars. but if did no more than pre-
vent such accidents as the one at the

would be fully justified AS matter
of fact. however. the war devices which
