It is rather quiet on Maplewood l’ark this morning Friday afternoon and evening the street leading to the grounds looked as if everybody in Bangor was driving his cow home from pasture to be milked. The farmers and farmers’ boys were driving their cattle from the park to the railroad stations, Friday being the last regular dav of the Fair, and it being held through t aturday for the purpose of trotting the races which were post poned one day by Monday's storm.

An alarm was quickly sounded, but within five minutes tbe whole building was in a blaze and fifteen minutes later it was flat on the ground. Within the buildiog 23 horses and many car riages and express wagons. All the horses were burned to death. The shrieks of the tortured animals as the flames reached them were terrific. The spread of the fire was so rapid that no effort was possible for their rescue. The adjoining building, occupied by Luke Whalen, was somewhat damaged and the surrounding wooden houses must have suff ered if they had not been thoroughly wet by a heavy shower during the first of the night. W. H. Sanborn lost two valuable horses; W. H. Stevens lost a gelding valued at 8500; George C. Shaw lost six horses, five heavy wagons, a phaeton and a cabriolet; W. W. Sabine lost a phaeton Swett’s Express lost three horses, four heavy wagons, and a light carriage; Thompson A Hall lost two horses, two heavy wagons, a light carriage and a sleigh; K Carleton lost a horse, phaeton and a waguu; Henry Smith lost a horse and a fine wagon; T.

McKuen lost two horses and a hack; Mr. Goodwin of Lewiston, lost two horses and a carriage; Dr. Fitzgerald’s big double sleigh was consumed; L. P. Farring ton lost a horse and carriage. The loss of horses and carriages must amount to at least 815,000. The lessee, Mr. Gray, lost a valuable horse and carriage. The building, some time ago a noted riding school, was valued at about 83000. It was insured for 82000. Swett’s Express had an insurance of 8500 on their horses. Sunk at the Wharf. Bkidgton, Sept. 5. The steamer Sebago of the Sebago lake route was found sunk at her wharf in Harri son this morning under circumstances excit ing the suspicion that some one had mali ciously made a hole in her bottom. She made her trip from the lake station Friday, and was in her usual good condition when left for the night. She was to have made her last trip for the season today. The water where she lies is from five to six feet deep. The damage will not be serious. fKO.ff WASHINGTON. About Ei-Fetiiitn Whelan’s Position nt Fort Erie—f ivil service Law*—Eudi cott and shetidan. Washington. Sept. 4 Assistant Secretary of Slate Porter said today that he had reason to believe that Con sul Whelan of Buffalo, the ex-Fenian, would he dulv recognized, and would perform the duties of his office as consul at Fort Erie, Ont. The department has never heard a word of complaint of Whelan’s alleged Fe nian tendencies. A prominent officer of the government to day expressed the belief that the auit brought yesterday in New York, against the civil ser vice commission, was. in reality, a friendly suit instigated by civil service advocates with a view to securing a judicial affirmation of the legality of the civil service act. He added that prominent civil aervice advocates contemplated the institution of such a suit last spring, and that he had been invited, be fore hia appointment tq office, to asaist in its prosecution. It was the purpose then to car ry the cases to the supreme court of the United States to seeure a filial judgment by the highest judicial auihority. Adjutant General Drum is authority for the statement that there is no foundation what ever for the published report that an antago nism exists between Secretary Endicott and Lieut. Gen, Sheridan. He savs that their relations are of the pleasantest character, and that nothing of an official nature has occurred to make them otherwise. SOUTHER* STYLE.

Attended the Funeral nf His Victias. St. Locis, Sept. 6 Michael Devanney was taken out of jail here yesterday to attend the funeral of the woman he murdered Much surprise was ex pressed when it was learned that the State officers had lent themselves to pre senting the murderer in tears at the grave of his victim. Devanney was tsken out by the deputy sherifi, and the privilege was granted at the request of the prosecutor, who says the favor was granted at the desire of the Devanney family.

The judge’s boat, Luck enbach, will leave pier No. 3. East river, at 8.30 A. M., going directly to Staten Island, thence to the starting poing. If tbe weather ia suitable for speaking to tbe navigators of of the contestants the judges will do so; if not a system of signals will be used to de note at what point the start will be made. Blue and white code pennant “D” will sig nify Sandy Hook by Lightship; red flag. “B* will mean the Scotland uightahip. The com peting yachts when given the signal to start must pass between the Luckenbsch and whichever lightship is selected. The time will be taken at they pass an imaginary line. The buoys to mark the course will he laid today or early Monday morning. The two yachts must review the buoys and the outer mark must be kept on tbe starboard hand. The preparatory signal for starting will be one long blast of the Mteam whistle on the Luckenbach with the lowering of the sign of the America from the bowataff and substitut ing i! 1 le P. ter in it* place. Another soul. nig ot the steam whistle and a lowering ot the blue Peter and the hoisting of the New York Yacht club signal will notify the yachts to start. They must come to line within two minutes, the handicap time being in force after that time. 1 he fleets ot yachts and steamboats are re quested to sustain at all times a good distance of the contestants and their vessels. The Puritan’s crew will be argumenled by that of the Gray Line. Ex-Commander Latham A. Fish will have entire charge of the craft. If victory is at all within her grasp, yachtsmen say that Mr Fish, above all others, will suc ceed in bringing her into the van at the fin ish The Genesta crew is the same as when she first came here. The fleet yachts that will steam and sail around the contestants is enormous, every boat that could be utilized being secured weeks ago. The old time steamboat Empire State will leave Boston at four u’clock today with near 400 Bosloniona on b ard. The yachts will be accompanied by at least 25 tug boats which have been chartered bv private parties. The Fall River Line will run the steamer Pi or id nee as an extra host Sunday evening. Steamer Caiioniuus will arrive with 280 from Block Island. There will be about five boats from Philadelphia. Portland, Dorchester, South Boston,|Beverlv, New Bedford, Lvnn.

Even yachtsmen of Halifax, To ronto and England have come to witness the struggle. The Genesta still remains of Tompkins ville, She will probably take a sail down the bay late this afternoon. For the benefit of the public there will be several boats in attendance, upon one of which pools will be sold. New Yoitk, Sept. 5. The Puritan was towed at 4 o’clock this morning, from the dock on which she had been cleaned and potleaded to the American docks at Tompkinsville. L. I., where shortly after 10 o'clock Jno. M. Wilson took heriae curate measurement. She was found to be 83 85-100 feet sailing length, and 81 feet and 10 inches on the water line. This measure ment makes her allow the Genesta exactly 31 seconds over the courses she will sail. Fifty sail of yachts, including many of the Eastern and Boston Yacht Club.accompanied the Puritan from their anchorages to Horse Shoe, (Sand Hook.) The wind was light at the start, but in the run out. when a fresh breeze came from the westward, the Puritan passed the Genesta and held the advantage to the anchorage. The start will be made to morrow at 10.30. Two hundred sail ot yachts are lying at the rendezvous and over 300 vessels will accompany the contestants over the course. THE OAR. Hanlaa Arranges a Match With Teener —He Wants Everything His Own Way. New York, Sept. 5. Edward Hanlan and R. J. Volk of Mc Keesport, Pa, the latter the backer of John Teenier, met in the office ot the Turf, Field and Farm today and perfected arrangements for a sculler's race, distance three miles, for 81000 a side. Teemer’s representative went about making the match in a very earnest i manner and offered several propositions, none of which were accepted by Hsnlsn. Mr. Volk wanted to row for 81000 or more; he named 81000 as the first proposition and this was at once accepted by Hanlan. The next question that came up was the date. Hanlan named Octooer 24th. He said he could not possibly row before that time as he had other arrangements, beside he wanted time enough to get in first-class Condition. Mr Volk war ted to row before that lime, but Hanlan would not give way, so that date was agreed upon. Hanlan wanted the articles made to that in case of gate money he abould receive 60 per cent of the receipts, win or lose. Mr. Volk fought this proposition strongly. He said he was willing to let the winner take two-thirds and the loser one-third, or the winner take all. Hanlan positively said j “No 1 must have 60 per cent or no race. Mr. Volk finally agreed to Hinlan’t terms reserving the right to close the match should I Teemer not agree to this last proposi tion. The articles were then signed, each party depositing 8400. Hanlan hat bean advising with hia Boston friends regarding the course, and it probable that the races will be rowed on a lake near Boston, aa favorable terms have boon offered by the controlling parties New York par ties are making strong bids for the race. After making the match, Hanlan, Lee and Petterson of Calafornia went to the Police Gazette office to arrange for a doable scull regatta, which it to take place Sept. 31 F >x gives 8100 and the Manhattan Railroad G>. add* 81500 more, the whole purse to be di vided into the following prizes: 81000. 8800. 8500, 8300. It will be the greatest double scull race ever witnessed in this country, with such starters at Hanlan and Lee, Courtney and Conley, Hosmer and Gaudaur, Teemer and Rost. McKay and Hamm. ^losmer was here today in regard to the race and left for Boston this evening Hanlan hat posted in the Turf, Field and Farm a deposit of 8300 for three races against Courtney and Conley. He will row in a double shell with Lee against Courtney and Conley for 81000 a tide, and then he will row Courtney and Conley each a tingle race, the stakes to be 81000 a side in each race. Courtney and Conley will probably be heard from in a few days. Hanlan said today that he intends by and by to challenge Beach to another race. One of the boau he received in Australia was twitted at both ends, he said, when it was de livered, and the water bad got inside the covering of the box on the way across the ocean. Hanlan’t proceedings at the meeting today were amusing. If be could not get hit own way in every proposition, he would get up and say: "Well, I'm not particular about rowing Teemer," and start for the door, only to be coaxed back. H e gave Teemer’s repre sentative to understand that he had gained a reputation, and now only wanted money He would not divide gate receipts equally. He would not agree to the winner taking the whole. Sixty per cent for Hanlan, win or lose, was hit demand, which was eventually complied with. Teemer was not present at the meeting, as he did not care to abandon his training at home. bask ball. Haverhill*, II; Newburyports, 3. Haverhill. Sept. 5.

gaitg gtnntbtt fawntal Augusta, Monday Morning, Sept. 7. Mr. Parnell still persist* in hia state ment that the straggle is near the end, and that the nationalists will hold the bal ance of power in the next Parliament. A Spanish admiral is taking possession of some of the Caroline Islands, and the commodore of a German sqnadron is look ing on with orders not to interfere with these proceedings. Lord Randolph C'hnrchell was able in his speech at Sheffield Thursday night to make some very telling points for the con servative ministry of which be is easily the second member, both in point of weight within it and popularity outside. He pointed to Ireland getting along very well under Lord Carnarvon without a co ercion art, and to the peaceful settlement of Ihe Afghan frontier difficulty on terms not only honorable to England but favora ble to her ally, the Ameer, lytrd Ran dolph’s address is described as quite mod erate in tone, and it was listened to by an audience which included many of the em inent people of the important district of which Sheffield is the centre. Mr. Gladstone thinks that for a msn who ordinarily measures his words. Mr. Parnell made a fool of himself when he proclaimed that Scotland lost its national ity after the Union. Mr. Parnell, on his side, considers the London editors fat witted when they forecast, a union of liber als and lories in opposition to the Irish party. Mr. Gladstone's distinction be tween the loss and blending of nationali ties is not one over which Mr. Parnell will care to split hairs. The Irish leader's Idea of nationality implies nothing less than separation from England in the last resort, although legislative independence marks an intermediate stage. A political union between liberals and tories, in his estimation, would bear no resemblance to the incorporation of Scotland in England, but would be an unnatural and artificial alliance, and such he regards the bond be tween England and Ireland. Some ot the advocates of temperance hail the latest report of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue as evldeuce that re form in the habits of the people is making progress. It appears from the report that the Government received $9,512,545 less from the tax on spirits distilled, during the, last fiscal year, then during the pre vious year, and this decrease implies a reduction os ‘.0,800,000 gallons, or about 14 per cent, in the quantity taken from ♦Jovernment warehouses for consumption. If it were right to inter that the quantity consumed had been in the same measure diminished, the indication would be rather More hopeful than it now is. For it is prohah'e that a large part of the decrease in withdrawal for consumption during the past year has been due to the fact that the market had previously been much oyer supplied with tax paid whiskey, and that more than twice as much whiskey was sent abroad as in the previous year, either to evade duties or with honest expecta tions ot finding customers abroad. Nev ertheless, the decrease in consumption is important to be noticed in connection with the fact that the consumption of fermented liquor has at the same time increased. The Government receipts Irom the tax on fermented liquor has at the same time in creased The Government receipts from the tax on fermented liquors were about 9 per cent more than in the previous year, which Indicates a consumption exceeding 19.170,000 barrels. Reckoning the popu lation according to the latest methods for January 1. about the middle of each of the two fiscal years, it appears that the con sumption of whiskey in the fiscal year 1884 was about 1.89 gallons for every in habitant, while the quantity taken from warehouse for consumption in 1885 was only 1.17 gallons for each inhabitant. This indioates a decrease of nearly a quar ter of a gallon yearly in the quantity of whiskey taken for consumption. State New*.

The affairs in one of the schools in the town of Harmony are in a peculiar dilemma. The teacher who taught last summer sup posed she was engaged for the fall term, and accordingly procured a certificate. The agent denied hiring her for this term, and so he went and engaged another lady, who also ob tained a certificate from the supervisor. Both teachers were in the school room on Monday morning to commence the school. The one whom the agent declared engaged and enti tled to the school, thought that discretion was the better part of valor, and sat down, permitting the other to go on with the school, until the agent conferred with the supervisor. This officer not feeling sufficient for the emergency, sent word to both parties to sus pend the school until he could get advice from the State superintendent. W ALDO. C. H.

A writ of mandamus was served upon the Mayor of Saco. Wednesday, for him to appear before the S. J. Court at Alfred, and answer to a petition to the court from the city officers and tax-payers of Saco, which alleges that the city government last July, ordered the purchasing f a lot for $li,000. for the purpose of erecting school buildings thereon, and also authorizing the raising of $41,000 for grading fencing, and putting the same in good condition, and that the mayor has neg lected to sign such orders or to return the same with his objections to the city council, thus greatly delaying the work. It is there fore asked that he be compelled to either ap prove and sign these orders, or give hie ob jections for not doing so. The Biddeford Times says that Wednesday afternoon a somewhat novel race for that lo cality, came oft on the track at Cornish.

Pigs also need cool fresh water. It’s a mistake to be overstocked. Save seed oats from cool, moist soil. Travelling painters are usually rogues. Fast Walkers are more needed than fast trotters. Hired labor is costly; pump yoorwater by wind power. A steer of 1000 pounds needs 18 ponnds of hay daily. Don’t encourage the horse racing prin ciple too far at the lairs. Skillful under-draining will be repaid in two years, on most land that needs it. Meadows should never be grazed short, but above a)! other times, not in the tall. By carefully selecting his seed from year to year it is possible for any farmer to greatly improve the quality ol his pro duct. An increase of 20 per cent, in the milk is sure to follow in cutting the feed, over feeding it uncot. This has been tried often enough to be depended upon. Corn fed to pigs when in its thickening milk state will put more weight into them in a given time, than at any other stage of its development. The extra labor required to work through mud, clods and water-soaked land year alter year, on undrained soil, is in a short time equivelent to the labor needed to put down a perfect system of drains. This is a point to figure on. It should be known that young animals return less value to the land in manure, tor the feed they consume,than older ones. They retain a large share of the potash, phosphoric acid and nitrogen of the food to build up their bodies, much ot which in the case of old animals goes back to the land. Wheat must Advance in Price.—Accord ing to the best estimates the surplus wheat carried over from last year is put at 100. 000,000 bushels. The crop of this year, it is believed, will yield 360,000,000 bushels. The annual home consumption of wheat for all uses in the United States, amounts to about 365.000,000 bushels. This would leave about 95.000,000 bush els on hand for export. But, in recent years, we have exported yearly from 16, 000,000 to 50.000.000 bushels more than our present surplus for export. If, there fore, the foreign demand for wheat will be as low as the lowest amount exported in recent years, the supply will be inadquate by some millions of bushels and prices must go up. Farmers will risk little by holding on to their wheat. Weeds. —A traveler from the west, who recently visited his bovhoob home in Cen tral New York, ramarked that one dot of thistles, no bigger than a barrel head, in the middle of a field thirty years ago, has bv this vear extended over the entire field. Manv other visitors to their early homes of a score or morn years ago, could testify to sitni'ar extensions easily noticed in the breadth of land occupied by weeds. The truth is we as farmers are all too indiffer ent to the subject of weeds, their increase, and the damage they do. Their extension is so gradual from year to year that we fail to appreciate how certainly it is going on. Where it will end we may well be gin to ask. The damage done to crops by weeds throughout the older sections of the country is appalling now If no positive steps are taken intheirdestruction, things will go on from bad to worse until some farms we fear, will positively have to be given up to them. We need to practice thorough culture on an increased scale, and to do this go over fewer acres. Give weeds a set back bv the most thorough tillage, following up with heavy crops that will choke them, anil we have a lead ing remedial agent. More attention must also be paid to their destruction in grow ing crops, whether in grain or hoed ones. Allowing weeds to seed unmolested in pastures is another prolific means of their spreading. Here they should be cut if j they cannot be dug out. just as they are about to seed. The entire subject is one I that farmers must give more thought to. j We pity them in years to come if they j fail in doing so. Flower and the Lawn. Tea roses improve. Weed the garden paths. Asters are in their prime. Syringe camellias daily now. Rubber plants thrive in north windows. Double dahlias are too formal for pres ents tastes. Excess as well as deficiency of water will cause geraniums to turn yellow Willow twigs with the bark on make as fine an article ot plant stakes as we care for. Castor oil plants are easily snapped off by a heavy gust of wind that they should not now be trusted with a stake. In the spring you may bid a cutting to Cfpw. in the autumn it must be coaxed, is tM old saying. We find but little differ «bM in the two seasons, provided atten tion is paid to always using cuttings from thrifty plants, and seeing that they are not too sott. Autumn Sown Annuals—Too often all sowing of flower seeds is deterred until spring, when sowing near the end ot the season would be better. This too is na ture's season of sowing. The advantage of sowing now is that the young seidling* h To the benefit of cool weather in the fall and spring for making their early growth in.

Cabbage seed raised at the sea coast is superior. The sunflower may yet become one of our valuable grains. Cut such asparagus plants as have seed on and save or burn the seed. Leave the remaining ones for a winter mulch. For richness of flavor the Clark rasp berry is easily outdistanced by some oth ers. Dead branches are not only unsightly, but they endanger the life of a tree if not cut. Evaporation ot sap still goes on from them, exhausting the tree, while the dead spot extends.

Piled together in heaps, and enough moisture will esi-ape from them to keep the whole heap sur rounded, with bad effects generally. The worst place for squashes is a warm, damp cellar. Brought into one from a chilly atmosphere, and they usually go off with rot very speedily. glisrtllHneons. Exercise. Exercise, as necessary to the preserva tion of health, comes in as one of the san itary axioms. Nevertheless, there is a wide difference ot opinion as to it, and as to the means by which it is to be secured. We have the apparently contradictory fact that s* me persons are chronically seden tary in their habits and yet seem to live in the enjoyment of good bealth. It will be found in this, as in many other matters of self-care, that arbitrary rules are them selves artihcial and are only valuable to those who accept them as generalizations, and so as guide toward that which is cor rect. Those who live by rote, like those who are polite only by the book on eti quette are sure to'make many failures. There must be a recognition that waste and repair is the order of vitality, and that in its regulation adapted exercise has much to do. The person who is a small eater, a good sleeper, and who shows an evenness of flesh and of health is often able to maintain good hea'th with a very small amount of exercise. There are others who never reach the point of pers piration without some great activity, or whose insensible perspiration is defective unless there is the putting forth of strength. As a role, the most natural methods of exercise are the most valuable. At the recent International Health Exhibition at London, there was a great display of all forms of apparatus tor exercise. The Swedish Ling Methods, the heavy Ger man, the light French, and all the various modes of manipulation were well illus trated. The varied uses of athletics, gymnastics, calisthenics, etc,, and their relative applications could be well com pared. At a conference held upon the subject after there had been full discus sion and presentation. Sir James Paget forcibly presented the claims of the more natural exercises, and of the robust English games. Cricket, wicket, boat ing, running, walking.tennis, croquet,etc., have each their great advantage. The bicycle and tricycle also come in for ap proval. Base ball, without its excess, lias also great value. All exercises may well be divided into that which is general and that which is special. The black smith's arm of itself, shows how possible it is to specialize development. Exercise is frequently too much directed to the use of particular sets ot muscles, while others are left to care for themselves, or actually to suiter from the disproportionate devel opment. We are glad that, as to modes of muscular exercise, this is being made a careful study. Professor Sargeant, of Harvard, has introduced a method or a se ries ot training exercises just with a view to this symetrical development. He has also planned special exercises to provide for defects—as where the leg muscles are very small or the chest flat and its muscu lar walls flabby. McLaren, in his excel lent treaties, recognized what true exer cise is, although so much at his books is devoted to Oxford sports that the reader’s attention is too much fastened on boating. The observent person, who is not lazy and is under selt-control. will, with a little in struction, soon come to know the indica tion in his own particular case. One man gets good exercise by a walk which starts the perspiration, yet does not fatigue. Another needs the more general move ment of horseback exercise. With others bathing and the active after ruobing of the skin is the only essential exercise. We have known persons who, by an hour spent each day in the bath room, secured such exercise as to be sufficient. But us ually not one-fourth of the time was spent in the bath. The relative amount needed day by day is much a matter of judgment and adjustment. One of the greatest mis takes often made is that of overlatigue.— Independent. She will be HUMother-in-Law. There is a young man in this city, a good looking young fellow, who has a sweet heart out in the country a few miles, and he spent'* two evenings every week in her society. A few nights ago he stayed to the usual hour, ami as lie passed out the front door he dis covered that it was clondy and dark. He Hid not relish the idea of driving alone through the gloomy night, and hinted shout a good deal to get an invitation to remain, but it was not forthcoming. But the young man was equal to the emergency. Going down the steps he artfully contrived to slip and fall gently to the ground. Thereupon he set up a tremendous groaning. The girl screamed, the men folks jumped out of bed and carried the young man tenderly into the house. His horse was put up and he was assisted to un dress and deposited in the spare chamber. He had hardly begun to chuckle over the success when the girl’s mother put in an ap pearance. armed with a mustard plaster a foot square and ten-horse drawing power. This she immediately proceeded to clap on the I small of the young man's back, where he j had incautiously located the damage to his frame. For two mortal hours that woman sat by the bed, and was not satisSed till she beheld with her own eye a blister an inch deep The young man is now a reformed liar.—Couucit Bluffs Xonpariel.

Wilson, Battle Creek, Mich., writes: Twenty-nine years have been added to my life by Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. I had been given up to die, with what my physicians and friends supposed was Consumption. I was weak and emaciated, and coughed incessantly. I procured a bottle of Ayer’s Cherry Pecto ral, and, before it was all taken. I was aliout my business. I have been a strong and healthy roan ever since.” Mrs. S. H. Jackson, Far Rockawav, L. I., writes: "Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral saved me from Consumption, many years ago.” A. C. Bell, Xew Glasgow, N. S., writes: “More than twenty years since, when a young man, I had a terrible cough, for a long time. My system was run down, and my friends thought I was going into a de cline. By the use of Ayer's Cherry Pec toral, the alarming symptoms disappeared, and I speedily recovered my health.” In all eases of sudden ailments, affecting the throat and lungs, the immediate use of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral is of the highest importance.

After having suffered for some time from a disease of the lungs, induced by bad colds, and, when my friends thought I could not recover, I tritd Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. In three mouths I was well.” Horace Fairbrother. Rockiughani. Vt., writes: “A severe cold affected my lungs. I bad a terrible cough, and the doctors finally gave me up.
