entitled "The Old Peabody Pew" at the

ing was greeted by large and appre-

In life.like natural manner that took
at once with the crowd. At it's close the
actors were obliged to come to the front
twice to please the audience and check
the hearty applause. II was played by
local talent as follows: Mrs. Sabrs Par
lin, Mrs. Stella Cobb, Mrs. Hattie Bar
rows, Mrs. Rachel Eastman, Miss Esther
Eastman, Mrs. Eva Atwood, Mrs. Ella
s. Heald, Mrs. Gertrude Russell and

Fate of the Amendments.

Woman suffrage was defeated by the
voters of Maine In the special election oil
Monday, the 10Th, by q vote of nearly
two to one. The latest figures available,
with the state not quite complete, are
20,547 yes to 49, no.
Il is we'll understood that this vote on
its first submission to the voters will not
put an end to the agitation for woman
suffrage, ss its earnest advocates will
undoubtedly continue their efforts, but
II is likely to be some years before the
question is again submitted TO the voters.
The amendment giving the governor
power to remove delinquent sheriffs was
adopted by q substantial margin, the
vote being 29, 1897 to 1901.
The amendment authorizing the legis-
lature to divide towns into polling dis
tricts was defeated by 22,412 to q, 448,
and the amendment changing the mill
tsry system had the same fate by 20, 400
to 23,7T9.
There is a close vote on the amend
ment permitting towns In case Of q mer
ger to have the total number Of their
former representatives In the Legislature,
the result depending upon the vote OF
the soldiers in the field, but il is probs.
bly, adopted, the latest figures being 81,
GOT to 81 ga. This amendment affects
directly only three or four Of the largest
cities, and only indirectly affects the
rest of the state.
Only two Of the five proposed amend
ments, therefore, are adopted, and pos
sibly only one.
On the fourth page Of this paper Is
given the vote of the Oxford County
towns on the several proposed amend
ments.

aPickinu Up Speed.n

A favorIte recommendation In SELL
Ing a car is that 1t will pick up speed
very rapidly. but 1t would seem that
both dealers and manufacturers are
working against their own interests IN
suggesting such methods Of operation
10 users of cars. To accelerate q car
weighing more than q ton from five
miles an hour to forty miles In IF:
teen to twenty seconds means q ire
mendous strain on every portion OF
Tho machine and is especially destruc-
tive Of tires. Moreover, there Is no
reasonable advantage In the procedure,
for the time gained thereby could
hardly be measured with stop watch
IN days run. The result Is attained
by supplying a much greater power
than the user has any need for, and the
principal use made Of 1t is to jump
across the track in front Of trolley
cars and railroad trains. Once a year
It might save mans life, but even
then it would not be necessary If ordi-
nary precaution were observed In driy-
Ing. In the meantime the car owner Is
paying for q lot of gasoline consumed by
the excessively large engine, which has
been Of no benefit to him.-Scientifc

The Increase Ia Fair Admission.

Editor Democrat:
The increase in the admission fee to
the Oxford County fair for adults from
Soc to SOC seems to meet with universal
approval, but as member of the associa-
ton the writer wishes to say just a
word concerning it. The reason for the
need OF this increase Is that the officers
of the association have been developing
the fair and increasing premiums just as
fast as the income would warrant. They
have not tried to get bank account but
have used the money to develop the fair,
and the people who have brought their
stock, farm produce, etc., there to ex-
hibit have received the full benefit.
In order to make the fair better and
with an idea of getting small sinking
fund so rainy year would not plunge
the association in debt, it seemed best
10 make this advance in the admission
for adults, all other admission fees
remaining the same. This advance was
made by the members believing that it
would further and improve the agricul-
tural interests in this section, by making
a better fair, by an increase in premiums
and also by making the money end of il
easier for the officers Of the association.
