Da»iel Keeae, for a Long Time Past a Respected Resident of Bremen,Indebtg that Town to Abort $4000, and Him selfa Like Amoaat, aad thea skips. Damakiscotta, Me., May 27. Dan). Keene, lor the past seven years chairman of selectmen and agent for the town of Bremen, postmister and trader, has disappeared, and is ssid to be a defaulter to the town for the amount of from 43000 to 45000. besides owing various parties in the vicinity nearly as much more. He always stood high in the community as his repeated re-election to the board of selectmen attests. Some 3 or 4 years ago, however, a few citi aens began to suspect crookedness from the fact that notwithstanding the increased taxa tion, with no increase in the expenses, the town debt steadily grew. This finally cul minated March last, at the annual meeting, when the committed consisting of E. S. Herkins and Samuel Lermond were chosen to investigate the town accounts of 1875, to date, but at the same time so great was the confidence in Keene that he was re elected selectman, though second. This po sition, as well as postmaster, he has since resigned. At the May term of court he filed a petition of insolvency. His methods of raising money were unique. One was to is sue two town orders bearing the same date and amount, when but one should have been, recording only one, collecting or selling the other and pocketing the proceeds. Another method was taking op the interest bearing orders with new orders for larger amounts, representing to the holder that the town was in need of more funds. The differ ence, however, he took and recorded the order, if at all, the same amount as originally. A third was to draw money from the treasury on his receipt as town agent, take up orders and at the close of the year in settlement with the town take credit for the amount, but retain the orders. During the following year he would present these orders to the treas urer and secure the cash. He also issued orders bearing simply his name and one of (500 has turned up with the name of the second selectman forged. About two weeks ago, before the magnitude of the defalcation appeared, he was arrested by the town auth orities, brought before a justice and put un der 91600 bonds for his appearance at the October court. He procured bail but since then he has disappeared. His family remain in Bremen. FROM BRUNSWICK. Graduating Exercises at the Maine Med ical School. Brunswick, May 27.

EXTENSIVE FIRE. One Huudred Poor Families Turned Out in the Night. New York, May 27. The vast furniture factory of H. Herman Bros., on Margin and Tompkins streets, was discovered on fire at 3.30 o'clock this morn ing. It was a five story brick building sur rounded by tenement houses of the poorest classes in the city. The fire was intensely hot and nearly one hundred families were driven from their homes. They rushed out in their night clothes and were compelled to camp on the river. Ac 4 o’clock the whole building was in flames and there was no hope of saviog any of the property and the firemen directed their efforts to make the miserable people as comfortable as possible. It is esti mated that the loss amounts to $1,500,000. The fire was so hot that several times water had to be turned on to prevent them from being scorched by the flames. It was not nntil 5.45 that the fire was de clared under control, and then there was lit tle left to burn in the building, except what remained of the brick walls and the debris of material that was contained therein. The en gines kept at work nearly all day, however, playing on the ruins. Mr. Herman estimates the loss at about $250,000, which is covered by insurance in a large number of companies. The loss on the building, which is owned by the PSinger Sewing Machine Company, will be $30,000; insured. Skilled workmen were employed and lose all their tools, the aggre gate value of which is about $20,000. and on these are only small sums of insurance. The damage to adjoining property will aggregate $25,000. THE END OF A DRUNK. A Drunken Son Shoots His Father in an Attempt to Shoot a Cnp Off the old Mao’s Head. Greenfield, Mass., May 27. William Prentice, who shot and instantly killed his father, Gilbert Prentice, this morn ing. was arrested this noon and held in $5000 for manslaughter. In default of bail he was locked up. The hearing showed the old man had been on a drunk for two weeks and had become so ugly that the females of the family had to leave the house. The son went to stay with him and about 1 o'clock A. M. fell into a dis pute—the old man swing that his son could not shoot a tin cup from his head. Both were greatly intoxicated and the son accepted the challenge, firing a charge of shot across the room at the cup, the whole charge striking the father in the top of the head, entering the brain and tearing a large hole in hia scalp. Medical Examiner Wright held an autopsy this afternoon and Inund that the man died from hemorrhage, the result of a gunshot wound inflicted by hia son. Railroad Collision. Saratoga. May 27. The paasenger train from Newport and one from Middleborough collided at Someriet Junction thit afternoon, badly wrecking both trains. The baggage master of the Newport train was injured, and lady of thia city was (lightly braised. A FRIGHTFUL CRASH. A Jersey City Tenement House Falls— Twenty-Eight Persons Go Down in the Ruins—A Few Deaths and Many Mirac ulous E-capes. Jassay Citt, May 27. Shortly before 7 o'clock this morning, the 3 story frame tenement bouse No 76, Colgate street, fell with a crash. Fire families were in the building and more than one half of them bad not risen from their beds. The first floor was occupied by the owner of the building, James Anderson, bis wife and fire children. On the second floor were Marv Webb and her two children; her husband was absent at the time. A portion of this floor w*» also occupied by John Coyne, his wife and seven children. On the top floor resid ed John Collins, his wife and five children, and Hugh McQurty and his wife; in all 28 persons. The scene that followed the col lapse was distressing. Shouts for help from men, and the shrieks of women and children, some of whom were only partially buried in the ruins, alarmed the neighborhood. The fire department was called out and the work of rescue commenced. The residents on the top story were of the most fortunate, as they tumbled out partly on top of the broken tim bers. Some were pinned down by the arms or legs until released by the Bremen. Those on the middle floor fared badly, one being killed outright, while the heaviest disaster befell the Anderson family on the lower floor. Anderson is a baker and is employed at the County Alms House, at Shake Hill, where he it employed at night. He was on his way home when the terrible news was conveyed to him. that 3 of hit children were killed. Before he could reach the place their bodies bad been taken away to the Jersey Avenue Morgue. The meeting between him and his wife caused even strong men to shed tears. The killed are Michael Webb, aged 17; Bernard Anderson, aged 10; Ellie Anderson, aged 8; Mamie Anderson, aged months. A better type of man trap could not be found in any locality. The firemen were astounded as they began to pull the half de cayed, slender supports of the floor irorn the debris, and the only wonder was how the building could have so long sustained the weight of so many persons. It certainly would have succumbed to one of the winter storms had it not been sheltered on every side by buildings. MIDDLETON’S MOVEMENTS. He Has a Number ot Important Prison ers—How He Will Treat Dig Bear. Ottawa, Mav 27. In the House of Commons this afternoon, the minister of militia read the following telegram from Gen. Middleton, dated at Bat tleford *’I have niAde prisoners of Pound maker, Leanman, Yellow Mud and Blanket Breaking-Through The-Ice, being the most influential and dangerous men about him. I have also White Bear, who Indian Instructor Payne, and Wahwainita. who killed Free mont, a rancher. My next task may be Big Bear. Poundmaker brought in the teams taken and gave up 210 stand arms and five revolvers. I have ordered them to give up the horses and cattle.* and am sending part of the police to see that they are all given up. The 90th has just arrived by steamer, and is in camp The rest are coming by land. If obliged to move on the Indians, 1 propose to organize a force of mounted infantry, made up of mounted police, Belton’s scouts and mounted artillery men, in all about .500 men, and with light carts and as little baggage and supplies as possible, so as to scour the whole country and strike rapidly. I expect Big Bear will soon give up. If he does 1 shall treat him as I have Poundmaker. If he does not, I shall attack him immediately.” (Signed) Fred Middleton. Uayyi.bford, May 27. Gen. Middleton held a big powpow with Poundmaker after the surrender, which last ed three hours. Poundmaker blamed Riel for inciting the Indians to rise, and says he came to the General to kill him so as to save his people. Several chiefs followed, all blaming Riel for misleading them. A scene occurred during the powpow When Gen. Middleton asked who killed Barney Tremont and Payne, one brave rose from the circle, kneeled at Gen. Middleton’s feet, and said that the great chief could cut him to pieces as he had killed Payne. He further said that he did not want all punished for his offense. He said he killed Payne in self defense. His grandson. Wawonice, con fessed to murdering in cold blood, Barney Tremont, who was greasing a wagon. The murderers were then taken into custody. The remainder of Poundmaker't party are expected in tomorrow. They evidently brought the least valuable of their arms today, and the young braves are believ ed to have all the best rifles. It is thought they will break up into small parties and es cape to the United States. Big Bear is said to be only 30 miles from here; it is reported he is coming to surrender. •‘THE ARKAJIKAff TRAVELLER” How the Theodore Thomas Concert Company Was Compelled to Play it by a Party ol Cowboys With Drawn Revolvers. San Francisco, May 27.

The musicians began playing “Home. Sweet Home,” but the cowboys yelled for ‘‘The Arkansas Trav eller.” Mr. Thomas gave orders to give them what they wanted. Madame Materna complained of a headache, hut the cowboys would not lake no for an answer. Just as she was be ginning to comply with the request, the cowboys jumped from the cars, firing a volley as the train moved off. PROM MISSOURI. Another Victim nt the Kidnappers Live* to Tell His Story. Kansas City, Mo., May 27. Chaa. C. Thomas, a young man, whose home is in Burlington, Vt., now employed here, tells a story corroborating the reports of ill treatment of Americana in Guatemala. Thomas says he sailed on September the 6th in the Ella Knight from New Orleans with 76 others. On arrival he was made one of the guards and so fared better than his compan ions. A number of men died from exposure and hardships, while others were killed in trying to escape. One German was a sub contractor, who paid a fine of <125 for hia crime. The men were kept in debt to a com pany and thus were held in bondage under the law of Guatemala. Thomas left there in February. TROUBLE IN CUBA. A Party ot Filibaster* Operating Exten sively—They Apply the Toreh in the Sngnr Producing Hegion—Their Prob alrte Pate. Havaxa, via. i Key Wear. May J7. f The unexpected landing of a filibustering expedition on the Island of Cuba on the 19th inst, has excited the entire population, al though the facta were either unknown or sup pressed until today. The expedition was commanded by Limbana Sanchex. a colored man, who, during the former insurrection, wen a reputation as an able and brave leader The expedition is supposed to have been or ganised at San Domingo, from whence the filibusters sailed, lauding at Punta Caletaa. on the south side of the province Santiago de Cuba, in the very heart of the sugar produc ing district of Guayantsuamos. Limbana Sanchex, following the methods of his pre decessors, baa commenced an indiscriminate use of the torch as his most powerful weapon, and destruction follows in the wake ot his marches. Several battalions of government troops immediately started in pursuit and overtook the filibusters. In the first engage ment they routed and dispersed the invaders, killing one man. Among the articles cap tured were several packages of printed proc lamations, signed by Sanchex and Varona, urging the inhabitants to join the invaders iu expelling the Spaniards from Cuba. The expedition is said to number only 14. although at first the filibusters were supposed to be more numerous, as it was asserted in the first excitement, and generally believed, that several hundred men had landed from two large three-masted American schooners which had been seen hovering in the vicinity. The governor general's first measure was to issue a proclamation declaring the entire province of Santiago de Cuba in a state of siege. It is said that Limbana Sanchex and hit follow ers, instead of advocating Cuba's independ ence, proclaimed annexation to the United States. All the papers at Havana this morning de vote considerable space to the details of the expedition. They all have editorials on it. and say it is sorrowful to see a handful of courageous men risk Iheir lives in a rash en terprise of this character in which they must meet the fate of Anguero, Bonacha and ao many others. One paper says that Limbana Sanchez wi.t r.e.-ive no mare assistance in the lield than his predtceasor, and must nec essarily succumb. The country is completely ruined and tired of adventurers. As peace is the chief desire of those threatened bv hun ger, they will treat as enemies all who dis turb the public tranquility. Telegrams have been sent by the conserv ative leaders at Havana to the miniater and his deputies at Madrid, asking an immediate settlement of the t'ubau debt and a reduction of the budget to •111,000,000.

V Wakeful Night Famed by the Gen eral—He Drive* and Walk* Oat on Wednesday. New York, May 27, Gen. Grant did not sleep more than three or four hours, last night, but the sleepless ness was owing to his having had so much sleep Sunday and Monday nights. He was not kept awake hv pain. After seeing Gen. Grant this afternoon Drs. Douglas and Shardy attributed hit sleeplessness, Tuesday night, to the fact that the General had that day applied himself longer and more zealously than usual to hit literary work.

Both physicians united in saying the General was passing an almost painless day. At 4 P. M. the General went for a drive and later he walked from his house to Madison Avenue and back.

§«fig §tuumt $htriui1 AurasU> Thueday Mining, May 38* It is emphatically denied that that there is any groand lor the rumor that Secretary Bayard is shoot to retire from the Cabinet. The latest proof of "offensive partisan ship” is allowing loafers to congregate about the postofficee. What will the next declaration be t The Boston Post says that on the first of Jane "the eclipse of tbe republican office holders will be seen without the aid of smoked glass.” Eclipses are not very long-lived. The Smiths who are engaged in the divorce suit, the reports of which are now occnpying the columns of the Boston pa pers, appear to have been formerly of Maine. Dr. Smith, tbe libeilee, testified that he became acquainted with and mar ried his wife in Richmond. Maine, and that be is a graduate of Bowdoin College, and practised in Richmond. They bring no credit to their native State, it tbe testi mony before tbe court is true. The latest report ot the American Iron and Steel Association, just issued by Mr. Cope, the secretary, brings out very strongly the tacts which show that the change since 1880 has been a revolution in the character of fuel used. More iron was produced in 1884 than in 1880 by 294,199 tons. But the quantity of char coal iron made decreased 79,140 tons, and the quantity of anthracite iron made de creased 221,198 tons, while there was an increase of 694,537 tons in the quantity made with bituminous coal and coke. Moreover, even in the making of what is classed as anthracite iron, a large quantity of coke is now used, and the change with In the past year has been remarkable. In 1883 there were made 965,454 tons of iron with anthracite coal alone, and in the year 1884 there were so made only 246,570 tons of iron—about one eighteenth of the entire production. Most of the anthracite iron is now made with a mixture of fuel av eraging about two-thirds coal and one third coke. Warm Weather. "Man wants but little here below, and generally gets it,” is the remark of some one whose address we cannot at present recall. But It is certain that one of the things he does want when the first good warm wave of snmmer flows in upon us is u chance to keep cool. That suggests the summer resort, a production in which our land is so prolific. By a sort of mag nified Copenhagen, or other round game, the people get pretty thoroughly mixed together and circulated around. Those who live by the sea hie to the mountains; those away from the ocean betake them selves thither; the citv folks run to the country, and the country people—usually —stay at home and make money out of those who come to see them. The great thing is to make a change of some kind. The summer-resort is a great modern institution. It furnishes employment tor many classes. Hotel and boarding-house keepers' ol course rejoice and welcome all who come even if they are in no anxie ty to speed the parting guest. The city belles prepare for a new campaign and fondly wonder it the real lords and counts will be on hand in sufficient numbers to make success tolerably pertain. Delight ful visions of moonlight teU-a-tetes by rock and river fill their minds. Some go, ol course, merely for the "good time,” for rest and recreation, without any such deep-laid plans for business, though willing, doubt less, to take advantage of any opportune ties that may oome in their way. What society drawing-rooms are in their season many ot the summer resorts are becom ing in theirs—places where fashion, finery, frivolity and flirtation have full swing. "Down East” in Maine, we have the ad vantage of the rest of the world, we think, for here we can furnish an assortment suited to all tastes. We have the seaside, lakes and woods We are prepared for fashionable summering or for the real, genuine rusticating. The excursionist can find opportunity to mingle with the giddy crowd, or seek—and find—a lodge in the vast wilderness. He can put on his store olothes and recreate in genteel style, or he can don his flannel shirt and worst pants and rough it to his heart's content. And the beauty of it is that all are easy oi access. Warm weather makes all think of where we ahall go.” for going is the American's summer business. More and more people are beginning to find out that Maine ia not away out of the world, as once it was thought to be, and that its at tractions as a place for recreation are ma ny and varied. Let them come,—the more the merrier. [Boston Herald.] Democratic Flanagans. The World is “pleased to learn from Washington that a more hopeful and beatific state is noteo among the democratic politi tleUns. The feeling is that the President meant to pay more attention to the demo cratic party." What are we here for, asked the ditiaaeuoni Mr Flanagan, if not for the offices? The only way in which the democrat ic politicians think the President can serve his party is by giving them offices. Wants a Divorce. Am Eartpobt Gibl's Hastt Mabbiaob AMD SUBSBQCBNT ABANDOKMBT. In ihc Supreme Court in Boston, Wednes day, Hannah Andrews told her story and ap plied for a divorce. In 1871 there was living at Eastport a little girl whoso age was 15 She went to the island of Grand Menan, on a visit, and while there made the acquaintance of Franklin F Andrews, a sailor. She knew him two week* She loved him Her mother was away, her father dead.

The “Query Column.” [San Francisco Chronicle.] It was once the fashion for newspaper*— especially weekly paper*—to hare an inquiry column, in which correspondent* were grave ly informed that Napaleon Bonaparte was born in Corsica; that gunpowder was invented about 1320; that there was no was authenticated instance of a man walking on three legs. But the fashion felt into desue tude many year* ago. Space became too valuable to be devoted to gratifying the curi osity or completing the education of single individuals. An inquiry column, moreover, to be really valuable, involved the service* of too many high-price writer* to be ajudi ciou* feature in a well-conducted newspaper. To answer misscellaneous queries correct ly half a dusen professional men would not be too many. Mischief might be done by blundering answers. Hence, one by one, the papers which used to have a standing heading of “Anss'ers to Correspondents” dropped it out, and there i* no chance of its b-ing revised Papers nowdays furnish their readers with such information as they deem best suited to the largest number.

He is described as being a particularly fine-looking specimen of his race, being considerably over six feet high, of rather small built and singularly erect. He has an intelligent and rather fine-looking face, a high, prominent forehead, and a nose of the purely Grecian type, while there is nothing coarse or sensual about the lower portion of his face. His hands are small and delicate in appearence, his fingers long and faultlessly tapered Though a pagan, he has more than once betrayed a strong inclination to embrace Catholicism.

The Council will adjourn this morning to meet the 18th of June. The Independent Ice Company hag not shipped any ice for a week or more, and will not before the first of June. The weather has been so cold in Washington, there has nut been a great demand for ice. Bodwell, Alius 4 Bodwell commenced shipping from Pittstolf j last Thursday. The shipments of ice from the Kennebec to this dste.are no doubt far be hind the usual amount, owing to the cold weather which has prevailed nearly all the spring. The amount moving at this time is decidedly small as compared with last year, and we believe only the Knickerbocker# at nwnthtown, Dresden and Consumers' houses are continuing steady shipment. D it report ed that when business opqns lively on the riv er, a new line of tow boata will be put on by New York and Philadelphia parties. THK ARBAWHMEHT. Tfc« Ualvatlois Dramairi Fluad W Kacfc aid Appeal. Early yesterday morning before the sun had hardly arisen above the eastern horison. members of the Salvation Army appeared in hoot ol the jail where their comrades, the two drummers arrested on Tuesday night, were confined. There were men, women and girls, nd they seemed to be in excellent spirits. The two prisoners came to a window and the crew outside waved their handkerchiefs and ••luted them. Finally one of the army knelt down and prayed, blessing the jail, ita inmates, Md the officers of the law. Judge Andrews *ts importuned to hold court for the relief of the drummers almost before he had awak ened from his night’s rest. At 8 o’clock he wore the ermioe In the jail office. Capt. Thacher, the Cadet, the wife of one ot the Prisoners, and a small detachment of the •rmy were io attendance. Smith and 1Tbit oey were called forth, and did not appear in the least troubled, although they had expected to be liberated the night before. Herbert M. Heath,Esq ,acted as their counael.They treely •cknowUdged that they hod beaten the drums, hut entered a plea of “not guilty" so as to obtain the foil benefit of their rights. Mar •hsll Morse and Deputy Marshal Bruce testi fied. The testimony all in the Judge fined the prisoners 86 each, without cost. They both appealed, Capt. Thacher taking out his pocket-book and paying the fees for the ap P*al papers. The drums were delivered over to the army and were packed out by the two drummers, who received the congratulations of a group ol soldiers, who met them in the •treet opposite the jail. IN THE TOILS. Oapt. Tkaoher Beats tiis Dram and is Arrested, Aad Water (trMt U Agal* la u (Tprwar. The 8alvation Army hallabaloo of Tues day evening wa* re-enacted on the street last night. The affair of the evening before was the chief topic of conversation in the city yesterday and everybody was speculating as to the pragramrne for last night. At the usual hoar for the parade nearly every able bodied roan and boy seemed to be on the street, headquarters being between Meonian Hall Block and the Cony House. There was much excitement when it became evident that the Army was coming. The entire police force of the city was present and await ed the appearance of the warriors. Capt. Thacher was the first to show him self. He bore the bass drum and was fol lowed by the remainder ,of the Army, being greeted with shouts and scoffs. He did not i seem to mind this,however, and moving tow ards the center of the street hit the drum a slight tap. The officers had been instructed it Thacher sounded his whistle, a. a signal to his drummers to commence beating, to ar rest him. But as he operated the drum the programme was changed. After the first tap Thacher did not touch the drum until he had advanced about fifty feet, when he com menced pounding it lustily. This caused the crowd to close in with a rush from all direc tions and for a moment the Captain was al most swallowed up in the tumult. There was a general stampede from the whole length of the street towards the center for a few mo ments, men and teams being indiscriminately mingled. Happy Johnny, "the man seal,’ made a bolt for the nearest doorway to es cape from being crushed. Officer Breen at once took Thacher, who did not resist in the least; but as the drum was being taken away from him gave it a last farewell pound with his fist, “exclaiming, “God bless you.” To the officer he was very polite. At the command of the marshal the throng opened and the captain was led off down the street, the multitude following with their usual alacrity, running hither and thither, men and bops jostling, and trying to keep up with the officers. A large number ran around and when Winthrop street was reached the hill above, over which the prisoner was taken, was black with people. The jail entrance was thronged, and as he went forward a chorus of yells went up. In the office he said good bye to the officers and shaking hands with one of his soldiers exclaimed, ''Have a good meet ing tonight and save all the souls you can.” He was placed in one of the cells on the low est corridor. The Army after loosing their Captain marched off towards the railroad bridge, the Cadet leading. No crowd followed them, as it had all gone the other way. On their re turn to the barracks they were met by a crowded house,galleries and floor being filled* The city iif Augusta was prayed fur; alto the Mayur A hle*sing was asked again and again fur the Captain. The Cadet and Mrs. Thacher led the meeting. They held that they were persecuted The snare drum was beaten during the singing; but the bass drum was at the police station. Last evening Thacher was found in his cell about 9 o’clock examining copies of the War Cry and stated that he had begun mak ing out his report for that paper. “I have been singing," he said,"in hopes to do some thing for Jesu^tynong the prisoners, but the turnkey stopped me. I have also been pray ing for the meeting. I intend to serve my sentence out. I need a rest. I Jo not believe in a religion where the path is always smooth; I was ordered to come out with the drums by our division marshal, but should have come out anyway, The drum it a portion of our religion and we think we have as good a right te use it as the churches to ring their bells. We propose to keep on and beat the devil." Thacher con tinued to talk in this style for some time and thought he should sleep well. A man ap peared at the jail last night to secure the release of the doughty Salvationist, but did uot succeed. Whitney and Smith, who were released yesterday morning, promised to bring bondsmen in the afternoon, but had not done so last night. A patient at the Hospital by the name of Bruce broke the bars of his window in the second story last night, and escaped. Officer Grover captured him at about 12.30 this morning in the Square. When the officer secured him he had nothing on but his night clothes. There was a game of base ball on the State grounds yesterday between the Class icals of Hallowell aod the Gardiner High 8chool nine. The former won by a score of 35 to ,25. The Augusta school nine play the Gar diner nine on Saturday. City Personals. Mr. Elmer Smart of Freedom is reading law in the office of Judge Andrews. The Tenerable Jesse Drew of Fort Fair field was in the city yesterday. Judge W. P. Whitehouse and Hon. J. M. Haynes arrived here from their fishing ex cursion Tuesday night. They went up Moose river, and fished in Brassau and Mooeehead lakes. G Murray Dana, who accompanied them, paddled down the river from Water eille to this city. The party captured some 75 trout of different sizes. Primitive Kail CarrjrlM*. In yesterday's issue of the Journal, an aged inhabitant has a word to say about slow mails.

The pro prietors are Watson and Luce. A full house came out Tuesday evening at Grand Army Hall to greet Miss A. M. Gardi ner and her pupils in their production of a fine little musical sketch entitled “A Dress Rehearsal.” The parts were all taken with exceptional good taste and there was fine singing. Between the third and fourth scenes Miss Nellie Scrib ner came forward and rendered a solo in a clear sweet voice with easy grace and pleasing manner, earning a recall which was responded to by repeating one verse of the tame. The piano solos by the Misses Moulton aod Hanley were very successfully executed. NORTH FAIRFIELD. The Friends’ Quarterly meeting was held Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with full at tendance. Frank Modoc, formerly “Steam boat Frank,” one of the tribe of Modoc In dians, who fought against Gen. Canby, and who through missionary efforts has become christianized, and is now a Friend minister, was in attendance at the meetings Sunday, and spoke briefly in broken English. He is a striking illustration of the fact that Chris tianization is better calculated ts subdue the Indian, than the sword Mr. Modoc is in tending to spend a year or two at Oak Grove Seminary, to fit himself for preaching and teaching among his people. He is spending a few davs, at the house of J F.

SCOTT’S EMULSION OF PURE Cod Liver Oil, with Hypophosphltsa, For Affections of the Lungs and Wasitng Diseases. Dr. J. Simonaud, New Orleans, La., says: “l can candidly declare Scott’s Emulsion is the finest preparation of the kind that has ever been brought to my notice. In affec tions of the lungs and other wasting diseases, we may consider it our most reliable agent. In a perfectly elegant and agreeable form.” There is no remedy in the world so valu able to use in the case of sudden accident or illness, as Johnson's Anodyne Liniment. It can be used internally and externally, and its power it truly marvelous. There is nothing so dear as cheap medicine; it is dear at any price. This is true of the large packs of condition powders now sold. Buy Sheridan’s Cavalry Condition Powders and you can’t make a mistake.

John Aekerson, of Bridgewater, lost his farm and outbuildings, together with nine head of cattle, twelve sheep, one horse. farming tools, etc., by fire, Wednesday night of last week, reports the Pioneer. Cause of j ■re unknown; no insurance. The farm buildinga of Mr. Moses Abbot, living ou the “Ormshee road.” so called, in South Caribou, were destroyed by fire Satur day afternoon, the 16th init., and he lost everything, including (arming tools, hay, grain, wool, etc., says tbe Herald. A singular phenomenon has been observed in the heavens at Fort Fairfield, according to the Bangor Commercial. Rather low down in the north-western horizon appeared what teemed to be a bail of fire as large as a bush el basket, looking like a red-hot cannon ball, from which were constantly dropping sparks. The ball appeared slowly sinking earthward, but remained visible for tome time. CtTlIBE BLAND. Sunday being Queen Victoria's birthday Messrs. D. J. Maquire of Quebec, barks “Gaspee" Capt. Henry Pinhey, and “Rob ert Porter," Capt H. J. McGough, now in Portland harbor, were decorated from stem to stern with bunting. A Portland boy, 16 years old was arrested Tuesday for an alleued criminal aasualt on a girl eight years old. The boy denies all knowledge of the affair. Tuesday evening about five o'clock a little son of Mr Chas. Herrick, of Portland, was run over by a jigger. He received only a slight wound on the head, but it was a nar row escape from death. An employe of the Portland Electric Light Company was going through Middle street, Tuesday, bearing on his shoulders some iron picks. He ran into a young woman, hitting her in the back. She was knocked senseless. The fellow who caused the injury never so much as stopped to see wbat harm lie had done. Such carelessness is inexcusable. Franklw. As Mr. Heath, from Portland, was driving to Strong, Wednesday, he discovered that the Dickey trestle was on fire. He promptly gave alarm and the fire was extinguished with but little damage. The workmen repaired the trestle in season for the night train to pass without delay. A farmer went to Phillips village one day from a neighboring town and made several purchases at the stores. The tea, salaratus, sugar, tobacco and a paper of powder, were all carefully placed in the box of the wagon seat,which, unfortunately, did not have a very close fitting cover. In due time the farmer had finished hie business, lighted his pipe and seated himself in his wagon to go home, but he had scarcely started before a coal from hia pipe fell off and rolled down to the place where the paper of powder was. It was the work of a moment, the old wagon seat went up and the farmer with it. Fires are raging among the timbers on the hills back of Phillips, the most extensive being in Madrid. It is very dry and the streams are extremely low for so early in the season. A lot of 160 acres of fine spruce timber, owned by S. Dill, of Phillips, is said to be burning. There are heavy smokes in various directions. Lincoln. Geo. B. Sawyer, Esq ,of Wiscasset.has re signed the position of secretary of the State Pnmological Society.

Shaw, the well known horse man, was thrown from hia carriage in Hartland, last Friday, by another team running into him, and severely bruised. He was taken np in an insensible condition and a doctor called. It is thought no bones are broken and no serious internal injury received. The Oxford Democrat says: About two weeks ago Daniel Walker, of Norway, was arrested for stealing beans nod oats from Plemore Holt, one of his neighbors. He was arraigned before Judge Whitman and recog nised for his appearance, last Saturday, for trial. When the time came Walker did not appear. It is understood he has skipped his bail, leaving his sureties indebted to the State for the sum of one hundred dollars. PlHOBSCOT. A tew days ago workmen who were en gaged in digging away the bank near Dole A Fogg's office, in Bangor, came npon about 200 coppers. Since that time numerous par ties have worked diligently for such a find, bat their efforts have not been rewarded.

i RAILWAY ARYISTLRE. (Continned trom yesterday.) I still persevered with my circular, but having utterly exhausted its contents, I thought this a good opportunity to make a peace-offering, and stretching out my ci gar ^ase, said: "There is not much time left before we part company. Have a cigar?” •‘1 am not in the humor for smoking, he said, “and the sooner we part the bet tgr.M I shut the cigar-case with asuap, and said pettishly: “Confound yon. sir! If I look like a criminal, inform the officials when we reach Basingstoke, and hand me over to the police He looked me over from head to foot, and then said, with sudden excitement, springing up from his seat: ••I daren’t wait for the police. I dnren t wait any longer.” And here he gave a hurried glance at his watch. “But the train doesn’t stop,” I said con temptuously, and then, yielding to a sod den impulse. I very imprudently added: “There is time for me to murder you yet!” The effect of my words was instantane ous. “I shall stop the train!” he cned. And to mv amazement and horror, he leaned out of the carriage and deliberate ly, as I supposed, pulled the cord of com munication. We were going at the rate of over 40 miles an hour, and I regarded this desperate deed of his as almost sacrilege. Very gradually the speed slackened, and we drew up at the next station, which I found was Farnborough. My companion still leaned outol the win dow and waved his hand to the guard, while I simply stared, astonished. “Is it you, sir, who have stopped the train? Whatever is the matter?” “Yes, guard, I’ve stopped the train. I am afraid of that gentleman there,” turn ing round and pointing to me. ••What has he been and done asked the guard. “He has been using threatening langu age to roe.’’ replied nay companion, “and I won’t remain in the compartment with him.” “Threatening language—is that all?” said the guard with a sudden accession of rage “Then you'll get into trouble for this, sir—stopping the train tor nothing. Are you coming out, or what are you go ing to do “Yes; I’m coming out.” was the answer and while I was simply speechless with bewilderment, he took hat, overcoat and portmanteau with him, and stepped on to the platform. As he got down, I heard him say to the guard: “I am quite too nervous to go on by this train, guard.” And so the guard, with one warning shout directed towards me, “This will be inquired into at Basing stoke,” slammed the door, sounded his whistle, and we were off again. The whole affair occupied but a few seconds, and I had scarcely time to realize the situ ation before I found myself alone, and my late companion left behind. “A good riddance,” I soliloquized. “Of all the passengers I have ever come across, you are about the most undesirable speci men. I shall have a bit of troub'e about this at Basingstoke, but the matter will end. likely enough, in you, my nervous friend, being fined five pounds and costs, and it’s a pity if they can’t give you hard labor. In a quarter of an Hour we were at Basingstoke. The guard came to me as 1 quite expected, directly the train had stop ped. “What was it all about He said; ab ruptly “What was the row?” Two police constables, who were pass ing along the plattorm, scrutinizing the carriages, stopped at the open door. “This is it?” cried one. “There he is.” “All right, gentlemen,” I said, good humoredly, “I can explain it all, in a moment. It’s really nothing. It’s quite a mistake.” “Bight enough, old chap,” was the dis respectful, but apparently good humored answer. “We’re very glad to see vou. Hope you’ve had a pleasant journey. You gave ’em the slip, nicely. But they’ve stopped your little game.” “What in the world do you mean I began, indignantly. “Shut up!” said the constable, curtly. “I arrest you, James Deasey, on the charge of having stolen five hundred pounds in notes add securities, the proper ty of the National Metropolitan Bank. Here, Sam, bring these things out of the compartment. Now, guv’nor, you just come into the waiting room.” And, as I obeyed in sheer amazement, the other constable cleared the compart ment of its contents; while the guard, who had stood by, an interested spectator, contented himself with saying: “l suppose you know all about him?” "We know enough,” replied the officer. And on went the train. At length, finding voice, after my very natural and complete consternation. I thundered out: "I demand an immediate explanation of all this!” "Here’s the explanation,” said the offi cer. dryly, and showed me a telegram which read as follows: “From Inspector Johnson, Metropolitan Police, Waterloo Station. To Superin tendent Lewis, Basingstoke. Detain James Deasy, travelling in first-class smoking compartment next engine, arriv ing at Basingstoke 10.5. Believed to have deer-stalker hat, dark tweed overcoat and black leather bag. Booked to Southamp ton. Wanted for £500, National Metro politan Bank. Bag supposed to contain notes and securities.” The other constable was bringing in a hat, coat and bag. “Those are not mine." I said defiantly, after momentarily glancing at them. The officer, for reply, but bis finger to his nose and winked at his comrade. “Dark tweed overcoat, deer-stalker hat. black bag.” repeated the other. “Now, mister, you come with us.” 1 remonstrated and expostulated. “This is most absurd. You have no business to detain me. Mv name is not Deasev. 1 have no idea what vou mean by your extraordinary conduct. You are making a serious mistake. I am simply going to Winchester. Here is my ticket,” said I, leeling in my waistcoat pocket. But it was not there and I then remem bered that I had put B in the outside pocket of my overcoat; bat alas! my mys terious fellow passenger had, in his hur-, ried departure, taken that with him, to gether with my hat and portmanteau, and had left his own articles behind, to my S'ievous embarrassment. The awful ought and all its consequences flashed on me in a moment. “Here’s your ticket,” said the young officer, cynically—' first-class to Southamp ton. You weren’t quite sharp enough old fellow, when you threw it under the carriage-seat. “He’s a deep ’un.” he add ed to the other.

There was nothing compro mising on mv person, and nothing to es tablish my identity; but in the pockets of the overcoat were found a small six chambered revolver, loaded, a Continen tal time-table and a white silk handker chief with the words “J. Deasey” marked in one corner. “He tried to get rid of his ticket.,’ said the constable. “It was found under the seat.” “Pass it here,” the superintendent, looking at it suspiciously. “Now for the bag.” This was cut open, and disclosed a large number of bank notes and paper securities. The officials exchanged looks of satis faction. “Of course the notes are stooped P” said the superintendent. “We’ve done it very neatly. Wire up to Scotland Yard that I Deasey is safe, with the stolen property.” I was tairly stupid with dismay and mortificatfon. “I tell you.” I began once more, “that you are altoeether on the wrong track. Those things are not mine. That ticket is not mine. The man yon want got out at Farnborough.” “Rubbish said the superinteudent im patiently. “The express does not ston there. Don't try that game on it won't do here. And 1 warn you, James Deasey, that anything you say will be taken down, and may be used against you.” I evidently was fast declining in his es teem. But 1 persevered. “The train (lid stop at Farnborough, as you will find out it you inquire. The man you want-” “The man we want is yourself,” inter rupted the superintendent. “We are sat isfied. if you are not.” “Well, then” I urged, “telegraph to London-” “Telegraph to the moon was the curt reply. “Bill, wire to Waterloo, asking how many passengers booked to South ampton by the nine train.” “I do wish,” I pleaded in desperation, “that you would let me telegraph to my friends at Winchester.” “Can’t be allowed; and besides, the of fice there is closed at this hour; you know that as well as I do. And now, sir,” said the superintlndent, in his sternest manner, “if you have any explanation to make you will have the opportunity of making it at the proper time and place. I shall have my instructions from London presently. Meanwhile you will oblige me by holding your longue.” There was no alternative but to submit. The message was. after a short consulta tion, written out and dispatched. In about an hour, or it might have been less, but it seemed a wearv time, a couple of telegrams arrived, which the superintend ent after perusing, read aloud in a tone of satisfaction.
