HISTORY OF ANDROSCOGGIN COUNTY.
by adoption. The last case was a remarkable one. An English gentleman of distinction and rank, from a distant province, in great grief at the loss of an infant son, came to this country in search of a child for adoption. As the mother was a member of the W. C. T. U., she naturally appealed to Mrs Stevens, and through her learned of the Lewiston Nursery. A baby boy was here found almost the exact age of one they had lost -a poor, forsaken little one brought to the nursery when less than two months old, so feeble and wretched that it seemed he could live but a few days. The necessary papers being obtained, he was taken by the parents to their distant home of culture and refinement, perhaps never to know the story of his humble birth, or what he owed to this institution. In carrying on this work the ladies look to the fathers and mothers of the county for aid. To those disposing of property by will or otherwise, it may be a " word in season " to suggest this charity.
June 2, 1886, the second union of the county was formed by the state and county presidents, assisted by Miss Henrietta Morse, one of the national organizers, with Dr Mary Bates Stevens as president, a woman eminently fitted by her noble qualities of heart and intellect for the position which she honorably filled until ill health forced her to deeline a re-election in September, 1889, when Mrs Abbie Capen Peaslee was elected, serving in 1889 and 1890. In the walks of her profession the need of the White Cross and White Shield departments had forcibly been presented to Dr Stevens, and in the earliest history of this union social purity engaged its attention, resulting in the appoint- ment of Mrs Jeffrey Parsons as superintendent for this department. The gratuitous services of two years of this valuable officer in her care for the desti- tute, the homeless, and the erring, impressed the union with the importance of this work, and in consideration of the time required of its faithful servant, and encouraged by the appreciation shown by the citizens, the union appointed her to the permanent position of Special Purity Worker at a salary of $400, toward which friends have kindly contributed. Through her influence several young girls have been sent to the Industrial School at Hallowell and the Temporary Home in Portland; many children have been induced to attend school that were truants in the street; little ones have been adopted into families; the aged made comfortable, and the sorrowing comforted by her thoughtful care. The success of the year led to her re-election, and in addition to her former services, she engaged, through the W. C. T. U., to extend the hospitality of her home, under the name of the Young Woman's Christian Home of Auburn, to young women of good moral character, with the purpose of assisting them in obtaining employment, and also the privileges of a Christian home. It is hoped this will prove but a nuclus of a permanent home for young women in this fast-growing city.
This union has always been remarkable for the earnestness and activity of its members, they ever keeping in view its object, "to educate public senti-

ment to total abstinence, train the young, save the inebriate, and secure the complete banishment of the liquor traffic." Public meetings have been held, in which members of the union and the local clergy have participated, and addresses have been given by eminent speakers from abroad. Club-rooms have received their sentence of banishment, while under the direction of efficient superintendents the work of nearly all the departments of the organization has been prosecuted. At the suggestion of one of the members of this union, prize diplomas for essays on the evil effects of alcohol were offered to the pupils of the grammar and intermediate schools. Through the kindly encouragement of the superintendent and teachers, 650 essays were written, and 51 diplomas conferred. This commendable undertaking was imitated by other unions of the county, with satisfactory results.
Meetings of unusual interest and helpfulness have been held in the county jail from month to month. The county superintendent of the Flower Mission, Miss Flora Newman, of Lewiston, has celebrated the yearly anniversary of Flower Mission Prison Day (June 9) by holding services in the jail, where, laden with these choice tokens of God's loving thought, cells and hearts have been brightened with a bouquet of "something white, something bright, and something sweet" tied with a white ribbon, with a card attached on which has been written an appropriate scriptural text. The following tribute addressed to the writer was handed to her on one of these occasions, written evidently by a man of education and refinement, and in a clear, legible hand :-
Madam : - Allow me to thus thank you and all others who took part in the happy occasion of to-day for your beautiful surprise. I assure you I, for one, appreciate your efforts, and sincerely hope that you will meet with the success you justly merit.
Who knows but the life of a flower is immortal, And its soul pours forth in its breath of perfume, And rising, it enters through heaven's bright portal To blossom anew into beauty and bloom ?
Who knows but the flower so fragile and fleeting As tints of the rainbow, or drops of the dew - The blossoms you bring us in beauty and sweetness, Are emblems of thoughts that are tender and true ?
Mrs A. J. Benner is the present efficient president of the Auburn W. C. T. U. The Young Woman's Christian Temperance Union ( the Y's, so-called) through this department has done a work beautiful in its purpose and in its mission to the sick and the sorrowing.
The Turner Union was organized June 19, 1888, with Mrs Mary Irish as president. Upon the decease of Mrs Irish, Mrs Ella T. Mabry was appointed president. Through the department of scientific temperance instruction, text- books have been introduced into the schools. Their latest work has been to help establish a public library at Chase's Mills, which they hope "will be a blessing to the people for years to come."

The Mechanic Falls Union was organized August 2, 1888, Mrs S. I. Jewett, president. The departments of work engaged in have been those of scientific temperance instruction in schools, Sabbath-school work, juvenile work, temper- ance literature, evangelistie work, parlor meetings, flower missions, fairs, impure literature, social purity, and Sabbath observance. The testimony of this effective union is this: "While we have not accomplished much, we are striving to do what we can for 'God and Home and Native Land,' leaving the result with him who hath said all things work together for good to them that love Him."
In the midst of a severe storm, warm hearts greeted a delegation of W. C. T. U. workers at Greene, January 17, 1889, where was organized a Woman's Christian Temperance Union, with Mrs George W. Parker, president. The following departments of work have been engaged in: Sunday-school work, flower mission, and Sabbath observance, and a committee appointed to consult with teachers in regard to prize essays on temperance. The work of 1889 consisted chiefly in holding gospel temperance meetings, and the distribution of temperance literature. In 1890 the union was specially interested in the Day Nursery at Lewiston. The corresponding secretary writes: "Although the work done in our union is small compared with larger unions, its members are thoroughly interested, and earnestly working for 'God and Home and Native Land.'" Thus again comes our glorious motto to the front, and our hearts are thrilled with the melody of its meaning, as up from the little unions along the line is sounded its magic numbers. Mrs R. S. Thomas is the president for 1891.
The Lisbon Falls Union was formed February 22, 1889, with Mrs Jordan White as president. Mrs M. A. Witham is the president for 1891. Into the hearts of this union has been adopted the Day Nursery of Lewiston, and for the comfort of these "God's little ones " have they been busily engaged, aside from other interests that have appealed to them. May this union of patriotic virtue be ever inspired by its anniversaries, which celebrate the birthday of the father of our country, and it could be called the Washington Union.
Earnest workers from unions in the vicinity of Lisbon visited that thriving place March 14, 1889, to organize an Auxiliary to the W. C. T. U. A union was formed, and Mrs A. H. Macurda elected president. The work among the children was soon taken up, and a branch of the Loyal Legion organized. The departments of Sunday-school work, scientific instruction in schools, flower missions, and Sabbath observance, have received special attention.
East Auburn reports through its secretary that under the auspices of the Lewiston and Auburn unions, invited by Mrs H. B. Marshall, wife of the Baptist pastor, and formerly a member of the W. C. T. U. in the West, a union was formed June 18, 1889, with Mrs Marshall as president. Mrs Henry Townsend is the present president. Inspired by our motto, they hope a good work has been accomplished. Several public temperance meetings have been

held, temperance literature disbursed, and prizes offered in the schools for best essays on alcohol and tobacco, have served to strengthen public sentiment. God's messengers, the flowers, sent to the homes of the sick and aged, have been gratefully received. So they believe their work has not been in vain, and that seed they have planted will spring up to bless other generations.
Livermore Falls Union was organized March 14, 1890, with Mrs Charles R. Loring, president. Mrs A. D. Gilbert is the president for 1891. Though in its infancy it has a bright outlook in the efficiency of its board of officers and the cheerful courage of its members. Its secretary says that, while ignorant as yet of ways and means, they hold profitable meetings, and are deeply inter- ested in the work, hoping to do much of good. Special attention has been given to the distribution of temperance literature.
In 1887 the unions of Lewiston and Auburn established a restaurant at the State Fair Grounds, with the combined purpose of helping to elevate the moral tone of the people through the distribution of temperance literature, lessening .the temptation to the use of intoxicants, and the furnishing of meals to obtain funds to forward the local work of the organization.
Three Demorest medal contests in oratory of unexceptional interest have been held in the county. The successful contestant of the East Auburn contest was Miss Edna C. Thomas. The contest in Auburn was participated in by pupils of the Nichols Latin School and the Lewiston and Auburn high schools. Miss Josephine H. Hodsdon, of the Latin School, won the prize. Prom- inent citizens of Lewiston and Auburn served as judges; appropriate and interesting remarks were made by Mayor A. R. Savage. Lisbon held an enthusiastic contest. Its object was the purchase of a flag for the high school; the movement originated with Mrs A. N. Moffat, National Assistant Superintendent of the W. C. T. U. There were six contestants. Miss Belle Miles won the medal. Distinguished speakers of national fame, and Mrs Laura Ormiston Chant, of England, have addressed public audiences in this county in this cause.

HISTORY OF ANDROSCOGGIN COUNTY.
" Wrought into the granite of deeds" is the history of the unions of Androscoggin county, unflinching in their loyalty, and true to the sentiment that makes no compromise with error, or with the adoption of an expedient at the cost of an interest that is eternity-bound, their success and prosperity have been undiminished. Trusting for the glorious result for which they labor, the prohibition of the liquor traffic and its attendant evils, they press to the front with their pure white banner entwined with the flags of the nations, while the tramp of little feet, as aloft they bear their ensign with its prophetic motto, "Tremble, King Alcohol, for we shall grow up," inspires with a never-dying courage the valiant host that marches on to conquest for " God and Home and Native Land."
