Her anchor light had onlv one com- panion to break the darkness a»-d" that swung trom the stays ot the schooner Wanderer. The sailors on hoard of Genesta clustered on her stern, eagerly discussing the chances ol j a breeze today.

Storrs, the eminent lawer of Chicago, had been found dead in his bed at the hotel here at about seven o'clock. He was found by Mrs. Storrs, who came down last evening in response to a telegram from him, in which he informed her that he was ill and desired her presence. He had ap parently been dead about three hours. When she awoke about seven o’clock she spoke to her husband, but received no reply. She went over to the bed, and, touching him, found him desd. She called for assistance and Dr. Hurd was hurriedly summoned. He had left Mr. Storrs ai a late hour last even ing fairly comfortable, and indulging in a smoke An examination of the body showed that death had been caused by paralysis of the heart. Preparations are being made to have the remains taken to Chicago this after noon. Mrs. Storrs is prostrated with grief. The profoundestsympathy of the people is extended to her.

Sept. 12. An attempt was ms'fe last night to rob the office of H. A. SUvton Co.

He notified the firm, and stationed two men. OffiffSra I). C. Hardy and C. W. Fitcb, inside of the office.

The thief, Leonard Gibbs by came, is supposed to live at Eoosburg Falls Drills, a tuse and powder and a steel har were found in his possession. He was locked up. A CONVENTION Of Free thinkers at Albany— \n Ad dress by Col- R. U. loser-oil. Albany, Sept 13. The Free Thinkers convention opened At the Leland Opera House this forenoon. The evening session opened with a full house. Col. R. G. Ingersoll was introduced and said among other things Most people imagine that a belief is very important; that if you don’t believe in a certain religion its because you want to steal something; that you would like to eat your own child or commit some feartui crime, and yet it teems to me that a religious belief never had much eflect in making people good, for some of the worst people who ever cursed this world have been believers. The Jews who crucified Christ believed In God. The devil believes in God and it does not seem to have affected his moral character. Some of the worst men connected with in quisition, inventors of instruments of torture, burners and branders of human flesh were all believers m God. Some of the best men do not believe in God. Giodano Burno was not a Believer. Charles Darwin was not a believer, nor was Humboldt. What is the origin of religion? fear, nothing elae; fear, home of ignorance. When the aavage saw the eclipse he said, “That means me.” Behind every good thing he put a God; be hind every bad one he put a devil and he sup posed these Gods and these devils turned afterwards into one God and one devil. Is it right for a God to govern this world or should men govern it? I speak of course of one God. there may be other Gods of whom I know nothing whatever. Is this world despotism or a republic? Is one God the source of authority or does the pow er to govern come from the seat of the gov ernment? Let us see who our God is What it the best test that you can apply to God? I say the use of power. How does a man treat his brother, liis wife, his creditor, his debtor? Now how does God use hit power? He made man and woman and then left them a prey to the devil He knew exactly what the devil would do, yet he did not interfere. He waited and then turned the two out. He said to the first woman of the world, when he drove her out of the Garden of Eden, “I will multiply thy sorrow In sorrow shall thou bring furth children, anil thy husband shall rule over thee.” This is the way our God used his power. Our God made man master, woman the slave. No devil could have done worse. I will never bow my knee to any G d who established slavery in the tamilv ami cursed the muther of our race What did he say to poor Adam? “Cursed be the ground for thy sake, in sorrow shall thou eat of it all the days of thv life.” The speaker gave many other illustrations of a like nature which were vehemently applauded. At the conclusion of Ingersoll's speech the conven tion adjourned sine die. HANGED TO A TREK. A Mexican Who Had Shot Into a Saloon llecnroea the Victim of a Neck-tie Party. Bisbee, Ari.. Sept. 12. Late Thursday night, a fight occurred in a gambling house here, in which an unknown vlexican, who was the agressor, was worst ed. He left the place after the row and was not seen again until about 4.30 o’clock Friday morning, when he made his appearance with a repeating rifle and a belt of cartridges. When he arrived there were about 40 men in the saloon, and the Mexican, who was on >h“ sidewalk, began shooting indiscriminately into the crowd. His first shot struck Dave Hickey in the jaw near the ear, and, in its course, tore off a portion of his upper lip, the ball coming out of his mouth. The next shot struck James Kelioe on the left cheek bone, went through to his neck, and ranged down ward into his back It is not expected that he will recover. George Soles received the next shot through the left shoulder, but it is not thought the wound will prove fatal. Jack Welsh received a shot in the foot, the bullet coming out at his heel. Another shot barely grazed the elbow of Frank Gardner The Mexican fired fifteen shots into the saloon in rapid succession. After cleaning out this saloon he went fur ther up the street and fired two shots into Pierce’s saloon and two shots into Curtin's saloon, and then disappeared into the canon. As he was disappearing a soldier took four shots at him without effect. No steps were taken to capture the assassin until daylight, when citizens started in search. About 9 o'clock he was found in a Mexi can house, in bed, a Mexican woman putting wet cloths upon his face, which had been cut. After getting all the evidence that was necessary, a rope was procured, and the as sassin was taken up the canon and hanged to a tree. SULLIVAN ARRESTED For Brenking the Snbbnth—Scene at the Close of a Base Bnll Game. Clkvki.asd, Sept. 12. About 4000 people were at Brooklyn Park today, to see John L. Sullivan pitch for the Forest Citys in a game wi|fc the Sanduskya. Both clubs were composed of good amateur plavers, and the game which resulted in a victory for the Sanduskya. score 2 to 1, was watched with interst. At the close of the game and as the champion was leaving the grounds, he was placed under arrest by Con stable Jones, the smallest officer in the city, who was armed with a warrant, charging Sul livan with violating the Sunday law by play ing ball. Sullivan offered no resistance, but going before Justice Hart, gave bail in $o00 for appearance tomorrow. It is said that the warrant was sworn out at the request of J. I). Hockeflerof the Standard Oil Co., repre senting the Law and Order League It was his intention to arrest Sullivan be fore the game begun, but owing to a delay in issuing the warrant, the officer did not reach the grounds until the players were leaving. MAXWELL'S TRIAL POSTPONED. Many Spectators ia the Coart Room Disappointed. New Yobl, Sept. 12. A St. Louis special says When Maxwell, the alleged murderer of Proller, left his cell in the jail this afternoon preparatory to being taken to the court of criminal correction he was greeted with roars of laughter by the other prisoners, and cries of “Shoot the hat made the welkin ring. The reason of this demonstration was that the prisoner had for the first time since bis arrival here placed upon his head a crush hat, the stylish ap pearance of which excited the envy of bis comrades in disaster. The court room was, as usual when Maxwell has been expected to be present, crowded with specta tors, who filled the seats and standing room. The front rows and many of the seats within the bar were occupied by ladies, who sat in breathless suspense while the tile crowned little gentleman walked jauntily into the room. When he was in the cage Max well was visited by a Scotch commercial traveller named Muir, who claimed to have been intimately acquainted with Preller. and who professing, to be an expert in the various dialects spoken in Great Britain, declared after hearing Maxwell talk that his was the plain undialectic English speech. This opinion, however, does not agree with that of others who are known to be familiar with the different English dialects. It was finally agreed that the case should be continued until Oct. 19, which leaves it to be disposed of by the October grand jury. A BIG BLAZE In New York—An Oil Warehouse Burned —Many Narrow Escapes. New York, Sept. 12. The oil warehouse and factory belonging to Swan Pinch, at No. 115 Maiden Lane, were burned this forenoon. The flames ex tended to the southern half of the double building and damaged the stock of leaf to bacco of Lichtenstein Bros, to the extent of $40,000. Swan Pinch's loss is $25,000, and the loss on the building $10,000. Tbe entire available force of the Are department in the lower district was called out to fight thr flames that threatened the surrounding buildings. They were, however, confined within their original limits. Insurance covers the losses. The fire broke out very suddenly in the fac tory in the rear of No. 115 and surprised the people in the building. Before some of them bethought themselves of escape, exit by tile stairs was cut off by the fire. John Seigler, an aged carpenter, who was at work on the third floor of the building, ran to the window, and, letting himself down, hung from the sill a minute or more shouting for help until some one brought a ladder and rescued him. Seigler was badly burned about the hands and arms. John Ilonnelly, a pressman in the old fac tory, slid down the tail rope from the third floorthrough the elevator hole with his clothes in flames. He was very badly burned and was taken to the Chambers street hospital. Capt.

Justice Richardson, who sentenced Kiel to death, has received a number of letters threatening his life if Kiel is hanged. The impression strengthens daily that the rebel leader will not be hanged. Several promi nent French Canadian journals are endeavor ing to stir up the race prejudice between that nationality and the English-speaking popula tion. One journal calls upon French Cana dians to ignore the English and to purchase nothing at their stores, and only to .peak the English language when it will 'bring British silver into their pockets. The recent troubles in the Northwest has tended rather to widen than to heal over the breach which has always existed between the two nationalities, and'it is evident that sooner or later serious com plications will arise out of these differences. HAD ACCIDENT. Three Young men Drowned by the I'paetting of a Moat. Kocklahd, Mass.. Sept. 13. This afternoon a very sad accident occurred resulting in the death of three young men of this place. They had been sailing all day in Accord pond and the wind increasing and coming m gusu upset the boat throwing all three into the water.

FOREIGN NEWS KXC1TBMKNT IN LONDON. ►'ear* of Violence Acainat the llrfeid* ants in the Armstrong rase. London. Sept. 12. At the reopening, today, of the prosecu tian of the I’sll Mall Gazette's editor and as sociates in the ah luetion ease, an immense, noisv mob in How street threatened the great est disorder. The police were obliged to guard all the aeeesseses to the court room in order to pre vent a riot, which threatened to break out at every moment. The tooting ia intense against Booth and Jarrett. They will cer tainly be lynched by the excited people un less strongly protected by the police. The crowd mistook several cab arrivals for the objects of their wrath, and tried to break through the guard and rushed upon the occu pants of the vehicles, and were only pre vented by the most strenuous cxertioua of the police. Foiled in their murderous purpose, the mob vented its rage in groana and booting. Mr. Stead ia less in disfavor with the mass of people than Booth and Jarrett, although the feeling towards him is far from *>iendly. He cuts a very small figure in the whole af fair. The expressions of the mob hurled at him are full of contempt, though not threat ening as in the ease of others. The alleged American citizenship of Booth, on which he counted to protect him trom the direct course ol the English law, is denied by Americans here who know the facts, lie is r. garded aa a pretender and impostor. He is not a citi zen of the United States, neither by birth or naturalization. He marched under false col ors in alt matters in which his citizenship might he called in question. He has pur chased land in several States in the name* of lieutenants of the Salvation Army, who as citizens hold the land in Booth's behalf. Some month* sinee, under the pretense that he desired to assure the owner ship of the lands to the Army, he pro posed to the American officers of the Army, in whose names the land* had been obtained, that they should convey them to himself. Booth signing formal declaration* that he w as merely a trustee, hohlitig the lands for the exclusive use of the army. Booth con sulted several American lawyera on the mat ter seeking to learn whether or not his being a citizen of the United Slates, aa he then 1C• knowledged he could hold the properties af terward, The same declarations of trust were effected in regard to the English prop erties which were acquired by the army in this country. These declarations are ol no legal value, for army transactions give Booth, personally, absolute disposal of all possess sions supposed fo belong to the organization. It is now estimated ttint the American lands amount in value to half a million sterling. The defendant* in this case continue to liml nnrelaxed support from many Methodists and other dissenters, although chureh people hold aloof from the affair, or frown on it. In social purity circles the agitation contin ues, looking to the government prosecution ot member* of the aristocracy whose names are involved in the Jeffrie* scandal, but there is no likelihood of this being done. The re ligious press ask why Jarrett, who is repent ant ami is engaged in the work of rescuing young girls from vicious lives, is prosecuted while Jeffries anil her accomplices in tho work of crime escape molestation at the hands of the law. The excitement is so koen that the government will be obliged to take some action which aliall satiety the demands of justice. Foreign Note*. Mahriii, Sept. 13.

BOOK AND JOB PRINTING. “Pi* Kennebec Journal establishment I* prepared Ml Mil time* to give Immediate attention to order* of My kind of book or Job printing. We have every facility for doing work cheaply and well. Have new press**, large qaantitle* of paper stock, and the latent *tyle* of type. Orders by mail will receive prompt attention. Russian girls are learning trades in or der to earn their living. Bookbinding, type setting, book keeping and sboemak ing are the trades receiving the largest number of recruits. The completed census ot Wisconsin j gives the State 1.563,930 population. This is a gain of 248,450 over the census of 1880, a much larger Increase than even the most sanguine anticipated. Mackerel are moderately plentiful off the coast at the present time, and they arc very large and fat, but they bring only low prices just now, and the catchers are salting them down and inclined to bold them for better terras. An angler tossed a burning cigar on the surface of the river Clyde, in Scotland, a few days ago, and immediately a tire ran over the water. Hubbles of oil were found elsewhere, and further search showed an outbreak of natural gas. The Mississippi Republican State Com mittee has passed a resolution declaring “that in view of the fact that organized opposition to tin; democratic par'y of this State this tail is useless, because of the well known impossibility of securing at the polls an honest election, it is the sense of this committee that no convention be called to nominate a State ticket.” The French Canadians of the Dominion are striving with all their might to save Riel, and the prediction is made that Sir S John McDonald will yield to their influ- ence and grant a respito. The French Canadian element in the Dominion is not easily controlled. It arouses the half breeds to revolt in the Northwest and in Montreal, defies the well meant efforts of intelligent residents to suppress the small pox. Fuller details of the accident by which the bowsprit of the Genesta was carried away on Tuesday indicate clearly where the trouble lay. The Puritan had too many captains. Her sailing master was dissuaded from doing what he meant to do too late to do what he was advised to do. A boat cannot be sailed successfully by a syndicate, even if each member of it is provided with proxies empowering him to cast the votes of stockholders upon such questions as whero it is best to tack. Attention has recently been called to tho lack of proper room in the Interior Department for the sate keeping of im portant government records. The par ticular documents reform! to are the original census returns, some of which, through carelessness and insufficient stor age room, have been totally destroyed, while what remains of those records is in a bad state of preservation. In the mean time tho work ot the Interior Department is carried on in innumerable buildings, in most inconvenient locations, and for the use of which the government pays ex travagant rents. It is even estimated that the total annual amount thus paid would pay the interest on a building costing ffi.000,000. The subject of the conversion of dis used graveyards into recreation grounds is .just now being agitated in England, and innumerable letters on the subject are being written to the I/ondon TirA>s. To convert those time-honored and sacred spots into playgrounds or places tor pub lic recreation seems to the minds of some worthy persons nothing short of sacrile gious. while on the other hand there are those who take the ground that they might as well be converted into cheerful gardens as to be the haunts and playgrounds of ad venturous boys, who use tho tombstones as rocking-horses. Burials in church yards in towns and cities have long since ceased in England, and. as a result, these old graveyards have been neglected and gone into decay. To transform these va rious graveyards into small parks or gar dens, it is said, will endanger public health, and hence the sanitary, as well as the sentimenMl. objectors hesitate. Relics of Gen. Grant’s Sickness. Bostox, Sept. T.—Dr. George R Elliott, the microscopical expert in Gen Grant's case, has had the specimens upon which the diag nosis ol “epithelial oncer" was based care fully prepared fur permanent keeping in hi« office. There ar-- IS ot t->oae slides, which are placed in an elegant nitirnganv cabinet, upon which are two silver plates engraved as follows “Gen. IT.

Shradv.” This small cabinet is placed in larger one made of cocobola wood, upon which stands a bronze bust of the General, the whole draped wi|b United States flags. Health of Female College Gradu ates The Association of Collegiate Alumnae,was organized in 1882 by women graduates from the leading colleges and universities^ of the United States. It now numbers 385 mem Iters, who are widely scattered throughout I the country. The first general work which wa s attempted was to investigate the health of women graduates, a subject which is of the gravest importance, becau«e of its rela tion to the higher education of women, and 1 one which hitherto has been left to theory and surmise. A committee of which Miss Annie G. Howes of B -ston was chairman, prepared and sent to 1200 alumnae a schedule of ovar 40 questions, relating to conditions of childhood, individual health,family health, college conditions and conditions since gradu ation. Seven hundred and five of these cir culars were returned, and a pamphlet has been issued by the association, giving the re sults of the investigation as collected by the bureau of statistics of labor. R^ft-rring briefly to the elabarate tables which riave been prepared it appears: That the graduates are largely of American parent age. The average age at which thev began study was 5.64 years, at entering college 18. 35 year*, and the average present age is 28 58 years. During college life the majority studied but moderately, and only 44 per cent did not worry over their studies or affairs. Since graduation all seem to have found con genial occupation, a great many as teachers, while eight only are occupied with social duties to the exclusion of other occupations. Somewhat over one fourth have married,and of the whole number of children borne by them the greater part are living and in good health. On entering college 78.16 per cent w’ere in good. 1 98 per cent in lair and 19 68 in poor health Since graduation the percen tages are 77 89, 5 11 and 17.02 respectively In other wor Is, 138 report a determination in health, 418 have had no change, and 419 show' an improvement in health. The most prevalent cause of disorders is con stitutional weakness. The present health of graduates seems to have been affected ac cording as their parents have enjoyed either good or poor health, the figures showing three per cent increase in health for those whoie parents were both in good health, and a decline in health of over 17 per ceot for those whose parents were both in poor health. For those who entered college at 10 years of age or under, an increased deterioration in health of 10 and 11 per cent as compared with those who entered at a later age is ob served. Those who worried over studies alone show no perceptible change in health; those who worried over personal affairs, a deline in health of over 10 per c^nt; those wtio worried over both studies and affairs, a decline in health of 15 per cent, while those who worried over neither studies nor affairs show an increase in health of over 10 per cent. Although the average good health of till the graduates who studied severely was consid raly less than the average good health of all the graduates, their health did not suf fer material deterioration during college life. The value of these statistics cannot be questioned on the ground that their loyalty to their alma mater would prevent those whose experience was unfavorable, from sending in a statement, as tabulation was begun when 455 answers had been received, and the per centage averaging good health bore about the same proportion to the t dal number then re ceived. as it does now that 250 more returns have been gained The bureau of statistics of labor, in including the report says: “The facts which we have presented would seem to warrant the assertion that the s-eeking of a college education on the part of woman does not in itself necessarily entail a loss of health or serious impairment of the vital forces. Indeed, the tables show this so conclusively, that there is little need, were it within our province,fot extended discussion on the sub ject. The graduates, as a body, entered college in good health, passed through the course of study prescribed without material change in health, and since graduation, by reason of the effort required to gain a higher education do not seem t have become un fitted to meet the responsibilities or bear their proportionate share of t «e burdens of life. It is true that there has been, and it was to be expected there would be, a certain de terioration in health on the part of some of the graduates On the other hand, an almost identical improvement in health for a like number was repotted, showing very plainly that we must look elsewhere for the causes of the greater part of this decline in health during college life. If we attempt to trace the cause we find that this deterioration is largely due, not to the requirements of col lege life particularly, but to predisposing causes natural to the graduates themselves, horn in them as it were, and for which col lege life or study should not be made re sponsible.” Oeneral News.

The other parts w ere w ell done, and everything went off with n rush. Bank and Famk. Win. Itedmond anil Mrs Thomas Barry are so well known to the theatre-goers in this vicinity that any entertainment with which they were associated would be sure of a warm reception; but when it is taken into consideration that the drama in which they appear is one of the finest ever put on the stage of Msine, and the theatre, the Gardiner Coliseum, has one of the finest, if not the finest, appointed stage in the State, it will he •eon that this is a chance that theatre-lovers cannot afford to miss.

Some ten yseeialist- in thi* line; hut one after another wou d exhaust their skill and drop me, for I grew worse continually. The cancer had eaten through my cheek, d« stroking tin roof of tm mouth and upper lip then attacked my tongue, palate and lower lip, d stroyind the palate and under lip entirely and half my tongue, eating out to the top ot my left cheek bone and up to the left eye. From a heartv robust woman of 150 pound*. I was r» due d to a mere frame ot skin and bones, al most unable to turn myself in bed. could noteat any solid food, but subsisted on liquids, and my tongue was so tar gone I could not talk The anguish of mind and the horrible suflVrings of body which I experienced never can he revealed. Given up by phv sicians to die, with no hope of recovery upon the part of friends who sat around my bedside expecting every moment to be my last; in fact, my husband would place his hand on me every now and then to see whether I was alive or not, and at one time all de cided that life wh* extinct, and my death was report ed all over the country. Such was mv wretched and helpless condition the first of last October (1884), when mv friends com menced giving me Swiit’s Sped *c. In less than a month thee ting places stopped and healing oom menced, and the fearful aperture in my cheek has been closed and firmly knitted together. A process ot a new under lip is progressing finely, and the tongue which was almost destroyed is being recov ere-t, and It seems that nature is *uppl\ing a new tongue. I can talk so that my friends cun readily und» rsfund me, and can eat solid food again. I ain able to walk about wherever I please w ithout the assistance of any one. and have gained fifty pounds of flesh. All this under the bles*ing of a mercifully Heavenly Father, is due to Swift’s Specific. I am a wonder and a marvel to all my frb-uds hundreds of whom have known my int*n>e sufferings, and have vl-ited me in my afflictions. While I am not entirely well, yet my gratitude is none the less devour, and I arn confident that a perfect recovery Is now in sight. If any doubt these facts, I Would refer them to Hon. John II.
