In accordance with the time-honored custom of our forefathers, made sacred by observance through many generations, with the advice and consent of the Ex ecutive Council. I hereby appoint Thurs day. the twenty-fifth day of April, as a day of FASTING AND PRAYER. I.et the day bo observed in a marine: befitting the purposes to which it has been consecrated. In our homes and in the accustomed places of public wor ship, let us with grateful hearts yield reverent acknowledgment to Almighty God for the innumerable blessings which we have received, and for His many ten der mercies toward us: and invoking a continuance of the Divine favor, let us implore His guidance and aid in our fu ture undertakings. Given at the Executive Chamber in Au gusta, this second day of April, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and one, and of the Indepen dence of the United States of America the one hundred and twenty-fifth. JOHN F. HILL. By tlte Governor. BYRON' BOYD. Secretary of State. It was very fitting that the Sultan's promise to settle those long standing American claims should be made April 1. Those unreconstructed Filipinos in the vicinity of Hoston now have a chance to show their bellicose ten dencies in the milk war. The sweep ol Denver by the Re publicans at the municipal election is another evidence of the returning polit ical sanity of the Centennial State. Whatever else may be said of the Congressional Record nobody will ac cuse it of quitting. For a month after the close of the session it has strug gled on under the burden of eloquence. It decs no harm for Aggie to take the oath of allegiance but knowing the young rascal's chronic disregard of everything honorable Uncle Sam will do well to keep him under close serveillance. Aggie lias perjured him self before and he isn't above doing it again. The Pennsylvania story that Madam* Nordica and her newly discovered "half brother” had come into a fortune of $300,000 left by their mother ‘who has just died in Mexico,” had all the earmarks of an April first joke, and Maine readers were not in the least deceived. The lloston papers say that the great operatic star read the dispatch with ripples of laughter and assured the reporters that her family were all accounted for, and that the story was simply one more proof of the use that a vivid imagination can be put to in the Lenten season, when there is space in the social columns to fill. Madame Nordica, in girlhood Lillian Norton of Farmington. has several sisters but no brothers. Her mother died in London, several years ago. I.— Colonel Mosby. the famous old Con federate raider, thus writes in Les lie's weekly of the future of the South: "The real South is Just at its birth. The growth of this child of the nation may be gradual, but in the end the South will be far richer and more powerful than the North. In the days to come the South will become the dominant section of the country. With out the war of secession the South could never have hoped to attain the future that is now certain. Slavery was a great incubus, paralyzing natural energy. By abolishing this wrong our war benefited every state south of the Mason and Dixon line. The negroes are producing more as free men than they ever did as slaves, and the great mass of the people are vast ly better off today than they were un der the old ante-bellum system^'" Colonel Mosby may be a trifle more optimistic than the facts warrant, but it is not to be doubted that the war with its abolition of slavery was ihe salvation of the South and that its prospects were never so good as now. It will have to outgrow some of its political bigotry, however, before its best prosperity can come to it. In Memory ol Dorothea Oix. Ninety ami nine yeais ago, tills day. there was born in Hampden on iho banks of the I’cnobscot, Dorothea Lynde Dix. one of the greatest and sweetest souls that was ever sent to earth. Duiing her life thousa ids blessed her for the good she had i! me them and millions honored her for her self-sacrill<ing efforts in behalf of the suite.\ng and the unfortunate. When she was laid at rest In beautiful Mt. Au burn in 1SS7, her worth was acknowl edged ir: eloquent tributes and she v.as eulogised far and wide as the most useful and distinguished woman that America had yet produced. And then the world forgot. When the National Dorothea Dix Memorial Association was organized in lSilit, only a dozen years after her death, most people, even here in Maine, had to ask "who was Dorothea Dix. and what did she do?" The answer was easy to give, and as people re membered the fame and the deeds of her who was superintendent of wo men nurses through the Civil war, and who had studied and made practi cal every phase of philanthropy, they applauded the forming of the new or ganization. The association, though organized by the patriotic men and women of Hampden, recognizes no local. State or national limits, and its membership already includes names from Scotland. Holland. France and Delgium. as well as from all parts of the Union. The association now owns the tract of land on the banks of the Penobscot including the birthplace of Miss Dix, and has erected there a lofty liberty pole from which flies daily the flag she loved and served. It is the object of the association to decorate and improve this tract for a public park and to erect there a titling and permanent monument to the mem ory of the noble woman. The society would have the monu ment represent the free-will offering, not of a few generous contributors r.Ione, but of the many—the widow's mite and the penny of the child. Miss Pis worked for humanity and do not all in turn owe her a debt of gratitude? Liy the payment of one dollar any per son may become a life member of the National Dorothea Dix Association; by the payment of twenty-five dollars an honorary member. Societies, clubs, schools and other organizations may become life members by the paym >nt tif two dollars: honorary members by the payment of twenty-five doll its. There are no annual dues. The names of all members, individuals or societies, ate to b'> written upon an honor roll which is to be kept among the archives of the association and a copy of the same placed under the monument. The name of any child or adult "on tiibnting five cents toward the funds of the society will be written upon the honor roll. Membership fees or other contributions may be sent to the treasurer. Mrs. Jane H. SpofTord. Ifampden Corner, or to the president. Mrs. Helen Coffin Beedy, 208 Essex street, Bangor. Maine. New York hears the rumors of a stupendous project headed by J. Pierpont Morgan for the building of the Panama canal by a private syndicate of Americans. It is claimed the syndicate has the necessary .*’00 000.000 to buy up the old French con cession and build the canal. Not one dollar will be asked of the government, only the permission to go ahead. This, of course, means the giving up of the proposed canal across by the Nicaraguan route, but as long as the canal is ever built the commercial and naval worlds do not care what route is used. Of course, the United States government will have full control in time of war, and general supervision in time of peace, nlso special rates for its naval vessels, etc., etc. The scheme sounds as plausible as it is big. lint this is the era of big private enter prises and if Mr. Morgan should enter upon such an undertaking it would be heresy to doubt his success. It is none too early to begin the plans for 1901s Old Home week, and it is a welcome announcement that a meeting of the State organization will soon be held in this city. This must be made a permanent institution. The welfare of the State demands it and Maine's scattered children desire it. With last year's experience, the State and local organizations will find the preparations and nrrangem''nts much easier than they were a year ago. It is to to hoped that Augusta will, this year be on the list of the cities which observe the week. It is now up to Atkinson, Garrison I and Winslow to follow their chief and swear to be good. The Lewiston Board of Trade held its annual meeting Tuesday evening. The election of officers resulted in the choice of these officers: .W. J. Googin. Pres, George W. Furbush. vice president: A M. Penley of Auburn, second vice presi dent; John L. Reade. secretary and treas. urer; John B. Smith. Jacob R. Little John A. Jones. C. F. Maines. \V. II.

Every old house in Damariscotta is now likely to be torn down in the search for boxes of gold. Knox county can afford to be happy over the satisfactory settlement of the prospective strike in the lime industt>. A shirt waist uniform for the beach cops is the edict of the Old Orchard police department for the coming sum mer. A ship building plant, and possibly a dry dock to go with it. is the dream of some Portland enthusiasts and they claim to have the necessary capital in sight. The Penobscot is open and the first steamer has whistled up the river, but there is still a good chance for the ice harvester on the surface of the Ken nebec. South Paris has found a Carnegie in J. F. Howland of Boston, who will present the village with a $10,000 li brary building if a suitable lot is pro vided. Tlie Portland fire department did a j humane service, the other day. in send ! ing out a hook and ladder truck to rescue a forlorn cat that had been perched for SO hours in the top of i lofty elm. shivering and starving, yet afraid to descend. Is the potato market on the decline'.’ Ttiis is a question that is of 'cry pressing importance in Aroostook county today. It is the general im pression of shippers that the potato market is going to take a slump. There is a very large number of pota , toes still left in the county, upwards of ' 1,000,000 bushels probably. The farm is ! have had a tine year and have sold ' their hay. sleepers, etc., for a good price, and so not needing the ready money for their potatoes, many of them have been, holding them for the top notch price. The Richmond Bee says that it now looks as it all the tec stored on the Kennebec river would be shipped on barges and towed to different parts of ! the New Kngland states. The plan, as understood, is to sell from the l>ar"es direct, thus avoiding the extra ex pense of unloading the iee into st ire houses. Should this prove true nearly all of the iee now in the houses will l>e consumed, and it is claimed that be fore fall the ice houses will be empty. This being a fact, the workingman is assured of a good joh in harvesting ice. ! next winter. — There is a general impression along j the St. Croix valley that the towns | have experienced their worst times. ! from a business and industrial point of I view. The proposed new shoe factories ! in Calais and St. Stephen, which are ' now assured, and the enlargement of i the present factory's business, all point | out that they are to have some busy • times. Two new factories will have to be erected and this alone means much work for carpenters and builders. It i is also stated that the St. Croix Soap I Manufacturing Company of St. Stephen ! finds its present quarters too crowded 1 for the requirements of their orders, so a large addition is about to be made to that plant, in building as well as machinery and extra hands. The sum mer of 1P01 will be a banner season for St. Croix valley people*.

The list, however, is very far from complete—but how It happens that Klneo is not in the list we are at a loss to understand. Then there ate scores of popular resorts not mentioned at nil. while at several, as at South , est Harbor, Casco buy and many inluud places famous hotels are entirely omitted. Why can't we have a -oil. complete and trustworthy directory of nil the hotels at all the summer reports of Maine? Wtitca a r.uckfleld correspondent: “What has become of the old-time hos pitality of t|;,. fathers? Fifty years ago a wayfarer seeking an asylum for h night, being rieli or poor, "ns taken In and hospitably entertained, and rent on his way rej,.icing.
