Thursday, March a, the community
was saddened by the death of its old
est resident, Mrs. Abbie r. Sargent,
aged n1nety-one years six months.
The funeral was held at the home
saturday. Aunt Abbie" was the
last of family remarkable for liv-
ing to an extreme old age, and it is a
strange coincidence that two years
before, to a day, and on the anniver-
sary of their wedding, her husband
was buried. Naturally of strong con-
stitution, her strength and memory
have been remarkable, failing only
during the past year. She leaves
four sons, Llewellyn j. of Ports
mouth, N. H., Benjamin G. of Sar-
gentville, Charles N. of Bozeman,
Mont, and Fred j. of Sargentville,
who has tenderly cared for her dur
ing her declining years. There are
also seven grandchildren and four
at-grandchildren.

zen, after an illness of only one week
of pneumonia. He had been promi-
nent in all the affairs of the town,
had served as postmaster, was the
first agent of the railroad in this
place, and afterward built and COM
manded the schooner Alice ]. Crab

number of years. He was a charter
member of Omaha tribe, I. o. r. M,
and of Elinee council, D. of P, and a
faithful attendant at the meetings of

will be greatly missed. He is sur
vived by widow, who at present is
very ill, and one daughter, Miss Lola,
who is now employed as clerk at the
Mt. Desert Ferry station. To them
Is extended the deepest sympathy of
the wholetown. The body will be
placed in the tomb at Riverside GEM

LABOR NOTES

A notable example OF conservation
is to be found in the scheme just an
nounced by the Paris municipal coun-
Gil for the use of the city's rubbish,
which is gathered daily in trucks from
apartments and buildings. Henceforth
this will be heated to a temperature
of 200 degrees Fahrenheit and then
chemically treated until 1t forms a
pulp, to be mixed with chalk found In
abundance near the city. This In turn
is made into brick for use In paving
and building.
The threatened strike of 10000 milk
wagon drivers in the New York metro
politan district was averted when more
than 5000 workers, at mass meeting
in Madison Square Garden, voted unan-
imously to arbitrate their demands
for an increase In wages and shorter
hours by a committee of seven, to be
made up of three members of the five
unions with which they are affiliated,
three representatives Of the Milk Con-
ference board, the organization Of the
milk distributors. and a seventh mem.
Der to be selected by the six.
The cotton mills in Spain are not
yet organized on the basis of the eight.
hour working day, and the volume OF
labor declining from twelve to eight
hours has disorganized the industry
temporarily.
