Who Be CHOSEN
AUGUSTUS POSTMASTER?
DELAY CAUSE Of INQUIRY

Who is'to be the next postmas
Of Augusta"
! don't know" was the reply which
Congressman John E. Nelson, made
saturday forenoon to the Journal re-
porter in answer to the above question.
He said he had written to the United
States Civil Service Commission more
than once in regard to the matter. Tn
der the date Of Oct. IS. he received a
letter from the Commission which in
FORMED him that the papers from the
examinations Of the applications for
postmaster Of the various places in
Maine. Mr.. Nelson queried about, will
be rated and the results certified sent
to the pest Office department at the
earliest practicable date"
Out Of the number Of applicants
three will be chosen and from these
three one will be selected. Nothing,
thus can be done about Augustus next
postmaster until the civil service ex-
aminations have been rated.
The places about which Congressman
NELSON Is interested ana about which
the letter of Oct. Is refers are Angus
Ia, Bluehill. Brooks, Bucksport, Calais
and HALLOWEEN.
The fact that such an interim exists
between the end of the term Of the
outgoing postmaster and the appoint
ment Of his successor is not uncom-
mon as past situations will reveal 1t
will be recalled in Waterville, that
Charles F. Miller was acting postmas-
ter for fully two years, before Edgar
Brown was appointed to the permanent
position.
The only difference in the Augusta
situation appears to be that the out
going postmaster. Frederick w. Plais
sted. is still in the active capacity I'M
til the new postmaster comes into
office.
The rumor has been current in GER
tain localities that the present incum-
bent would retain the office. The
Journal was unable to get any infor-
nation which would seem to confirm
that view of the situation.

Roger Nye to Sing
This Week Keith's

Roger A. Nye, son Of William w.
Nye q Fairfield and who was for
mcrly assistant manager of the Colo
NAL Theatre in this city and later
employed in Lewiston by William
Gray. is this week slated as SOLO
list at keith's theatre in Boston. This
news has been received with a great
deal of pleasure by Mr.. Nyes many
lo> friends, as they are delighted
that he is to have the chance.
Miss Nell La Nance of Florida, one
of the most promising pupils of Isa-
dore Braggiotti of Boston, was sched-
uled TO sing at Keith's in the act in
which appear the Braggiotti sisters,
the daughters of the Florentine sing
ing master. She sustained two bro
ken ribs and is in the hospital. NO
particulars have been obtained as to
how this most unfortunate accident
happened. The young lady's misfor-
tune is deeply regretted. coming es-
pccially at this time when she had
such an opportunity before her.
In August, Miss La Nance with a
number OF Mr.. BragGiotti's Maine pu-
pills sang for Madame Emma Eames
and Emilio Gorgorza the recital TAX
ing place at the home of DR.. and Mrs.
H. II. Stubbs, State street. this city.
The diva was much attracted by Miss
I.aMance's singing and her charm
ing personality. And it was Mr..
Nye's singing which occasioned the
guest of honor. Madame Eames, say
ing. "A voice of the gods"
1t is not known how long Mr.. Nye's
engagement at Kcith's will last. The
Bracgiotti sisters have been engaged
for three weeks, the first time in the
history of the theatre that artists
have been engaged for three consccu-
two weeks at the same theatre.
When they appeared at Keith's last
summer they drew packed houses.

Hospital for Plants

Among the unusual institutions of
London is a plant hospital" 1t is
organized just as a hospital is for the
treatment of diseases of human kind
and there are many rooms for the re-
ception of plants suffering from any
of the maladies which attack them.
Anyone having a house plant which
seems to be ailing or dying may take
or send them to this place. The plants
are received in a general reception
room where they are examined and a
record of the case made. They are
then sent to the room which seems
best suited for their care and here
they are soon put in good shape for
their return to the owners.

Pine Arch BRIDGE

An engineering curiosity, said to
be unique to this country and to have
only one parallel in Europe, is the
pipe arch bridge over the Sudbars
river which carries Bostons water
supply. The span is eighty feet, and
the steel pipe, seven and one -half
feet in diameter, rises five and one
half feet above the horizontal at the
center. The pressure on the abut-
ments when the pipe is filled with
water is great and is resisted by a
mass Of concrete forty feet thick be-
hind each abutment. Across the
curved top runs hand-railed foot
bridge. The steel of the pipe in the
arched portion is five-eighths of an
inch in thickness.

Remarkable Portrait Of Michael Col
Inns

When the body of Michael Collins
was brought to Dublin, Sir John La
very, the artist, himself an Irishman,
and a friend and admirer of Michael
| Collins, painted the portrait of his
dead friend as he lay in state. This
was not piece of taskwork, writes
an Irish correspondent, for the artist
was commissioned by his love and
grief.
The picture, a touching and power
full memorial of youth cut off on the
| threshold of greatness, was shown
privately at Sir Johns studio recent
ly.
1t is very simple and close to the
| fact. The surroundings of the lying
in-state are not even suggested in
the small canvas.
Attention is concentrated on the
big head, with the tangle of black
hair falling over the pale face that is
hardly sunk in death. Ones deepest
impression is of the power of the
face, the strong lines of jaw and
forehead.
Marks of character have become
salient with the blotting out of living
expression, the closing Of the eyes.
The effect is that of a great dignity
and a great peace, the realism with
out any terror.
Something even cheerful is given to
the picture by the radiant loose folds
OF the Irish green, white and orange
flag in which the body was swathed
up to the throat, where you just see
the collar of the generals uniform
with its insignia of rank. On the
breast CLEANS an ivory crucifiX. The
pallor of the face comes out Ieaden
and mysterious against the purple
pillow.
AS an afterthought, Sir John, when
he finished the picture, wrote in
golden letters at the top the words
Love of Ireland"-an inscription
whose beauty and eloquence need no
emphasis.
