VOL. XVI. ^AUGUSTA. MAINE. FRIDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 6. 1885 NO. 245. A LECTURE ON MAN. What a piece of work is man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculties! in form and moving how express and admirable! in action how like an angel! in apprehension how like a god! the beauty of the world! the paragon of animals:—S IIAKESPEA H E. How beautiful are the above lines uttered by the world’s great est mind How infinite the scope of man’s power if his faculties are well preserved. Nothing, short of creation, is to him impossible. Our soul is lost in admiration when we contemplate the possibilities of this greatest exhibition of Infinite Power. Yet what is this “quint essence of dust when blasted by disease—his noble functions per verted or destroyed As “all men are born free and equal,” as far as moral rights are concerned, so likewise we hold they should be born physically, but as long as children must suffer for the sins of their parents this can not be. That the human race has deteriorated physically is a conced ed question. To restore it is an impossibility, as long as people persist in immorality and indul gences which are in disregard of nature’s laws. The most we can do then is to ameliorate this con dition, and cure disease in indi viduals. To this end we offer to the pub lic, remedies which have done more good—accomplished better results in overthrowing disease than any others which have been discovered up to the present time, viz DR. FLOWER’S LIVER AND STOMACH SANATIVE, AND NERVE PILLS. The former is an infallible remedy for all affections of the Liver and Stomach, and is besides an invaluable general tonic. The latter is a reliable cure for all nervous diseases and conditions, such as Hysteria, Sleeplessness, Nervous Prostration, Depression caused by overwork, etc. These remedies are extensively prescribed by physicians, (a recom mendation which doos not obtain with any other proprietary article,) and command at the hands of the druggists in New England a larger sale than any other medicine. IN HUNDREDS OF THOU SANDS OF BOTTLES SOLD, THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SINGLE COMPLAINT THAT THEY FAILED TO DO WHAT IS CLAIMED FOR THEM. This wo hold is an unparalleled record of success, and the strongest proof of their excellence. As positive evidence we have thou sands of testimonials which we will l,e pleased to show, but which •pace prevents publishing. The trial of one bottle will be sufficient to sntisfy you that we make no false claims. A valuable pamphlet will be mailed free upon applica tion.

I be DeWitt House Stable* Partially De stroyed by Fire-«1000 Worth ol Har nesses Destroyed. Lewiston, Nov. 5. An alarm of fire was pulled in at 3 o’clock Thursday morning. It proved to be the De Witt House stables. The fire was discovered at ten minutes to three by Clark Read, a brother of Henry A. Read, proprietor of the stable. Bv the prompt and efficient work of the fire department the fire was kept away from the loft in whicli a large quantity of hay was stored. This loft was situated within a few feet of the fire. Two streams of water from within and one from without did the business. The fire is supposed to have caught from the stove in the harness room, in which there was a lire early in the evening. The harnesses were nearly all destroyed When taken from the hooks they were charred to that the leather snapped in two. Thirty-three harnesses were in the room. The loss on the harnesses estimated at 81000. The horses were let loose as soon as the the fire was dis covered. Stanley’s 81000 stallion was one of the number who preferred not to go. The hostler alone, whom he knew, would he per mit to lead him out. There was an insurance of 81000 on the horses and 81000 on carriages and harnesses. The building was owned by the Franklin Co., and was insured in a Bos ton agency. A Rockland Schooner Lost. New London, Conn., Nor. 5. Capt. Pillshury and four of the crew of the sunken schooner Jane E. Pillshury, wrecked on the west end of Cornfield Point, came here yesterday. The crew saved only the clothes they had on and were completely des titute. The Pillshury was a schooner of 147 tons, built at Kockland, Me., three years ago. She was bound from Hoboken to Ban. gor with 207 tons of coal. The vessel struck at 12.15 Wednesday morning. A CANU ARRESTED W ho were Connected With the Plot to Destroy Street Car Property. St. Louis, Nov. 5. The police last night arrested David Kee nan, W. P. Sears, P. S. Burns, N. Weathers and Master-workman Pinkerton, of the Knights of Labor, all street railroad men, for being engaged in the recent explosions on the strret car tracks. Another man, named Jno. Shanghnesay, was arrested this after noon and the police now think they have the entire gang. The men are all strikers and Knights of Labor, and were arrested at 2119 Lucas Avenue, from which place they direct ed their operations, and where a quantity of dynamite and caps was found. They pur chased dynamite in Louisville, with money furnished by the Knights of Labor, ostensi bly to buy food for the strikers families, but the police claim they have information that the officers knew it was to purchase explo sives. The men all confessed their connec tion with the plot to destroy the railroad property and will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. GOV ERNOR HILL OF NEW YORK Serenaded by the Citizen* and Jack* soman Club ol Albany. Albany, N. Y., Not. 6. Governor Hill was seranaded this evening at the executive mansion by the citizens and Jacksonian cluh. Notwithstanding the unfav orable weather the streets in front of the mansion were crowded. When the governor made his appearance on the steps round after round of applause went up from the enthu siastic gathering. The governor made a brief speech, in which he said, among other things “Our victory will strengthen the hands of our president, and aid him in his effort for purification of the public service. One thing may well be deemed to be settled by this elec tion. The State of New York, identified as it is with the business interests of the whole country, anx.ous for peace and prosperity, liberal in thought and tolerant of the senti ments of others, can never he carried upon any issue of sectional hate.” OKLAIIAMA. The Creek Indians Decide Not to Sell Their Lands. Muskogee, I. T., Nov. 5. The Creeks have decided not to sell Okla hama at any price. Last summer there was a wish to get the sentiment of all the tribes on the subject and a council was called at Eufoula, and it was then decided it would not be best to sell. On Tuesday this action was brought np for ratification by the Creek coun cil. The bill quickly passed the House of Kings, but when it came to the House of Warrior* it hung fire. A vote was finally taken which stood 42 to sell and 42 to retain when the speaker cast the deciding ballot in favor of retaining. Consequently the "boom ers” will have to stay out. The Seminole council has appointed a delegation to treat with the United States commissioners, but it takes the action of both nations before the country can be disposed of. A Death Bed Confession. Williamsport, Pa., Nov. 5. Patrick Curran, a prisoner in the county jail here on a charge of incendiarism, has made a confession to the effect that when a young man he murdered a man named Mar tin, near Howard, Centre county. Both were counterfeiting, he says, and he {tilled his victim during a quarrel. Curran is 71 years old and is on his death bed. He also con festee to other crimes committed in Ireland. WASHINGTON NEWS. Annual Reports of the Governors of Arisoau and Alaska—The Revenue Marine Service—Two Hundred Chin, ese Expelled Irons Washington Terri, tore—Cabinet Meeting. Washirgtov, Not. 5. F. A. Tritle, Governor of Arizona, in his annual report says, that despite the late dis astrous Apache outbreak the progress of the territory has been a source of gratification. The development of mineral resources of Arizona demonstrates, in the governor’s opinion, that the territory affords the grand est mineral field in the country. The esti mated value of metals exported by express companies during the year ending December 31, 1884, was 87,056,000. The population of the territory is placed at 80,000, and the value of the assessable property 825,000,000. The governor, in touching on the Indian question, refers in vigorous English to what he calls “meddlesome cranks and eastern sentimentalists,” who still believe the mythi cal red men of Cooper’s novels. The ac cepted conclusion now is, he says, that In dians of the far west are either diseased, filthy, non-producing vagabonds, or cruel, treacherous beasts of prey in human form. The governor says that the people of the ter ritory demand protection, and after referring to the fact that the Apaches are still on the war path, he recommends the removal of troublesome tribes from the San Carlos reser vation to the Indian Territory or some other suitable place. Governor A. P. Swineford of Alaska, has made his first annual report on the condition of affairs in that district. He arrived at Sitka Sept. 15, and was cordially received, “save by a few persons who preferred the continu ance of the old order of affairs under which presumably they had persuaded themselves to believe, that they might undoubtedly profit more largely at the expense of the general government than under the new.” The report states that several schools have been established at different points in the territory, by an agent of the Educational Bureau, and an increased appropriation is requested for the extension of these schools. Children are said to manifest more than average aptitude in study, and the agents are especially anxious for establishing English schools in their midst. A careful estimate of the population of southeastern Alaska places the number of whites at 1900 and natives at 7000. Native Alaskans are said to be educated to some ex tent in elementary branches and to be mem bers of Greek Presbyterian and Catholic churches; they are not Indiana, and differ in appearance, habit, language, and other re specta trorn Indians of the United States. The governor dwells at length upon the great natural resources of Alaska, and severe ly those government agents who have repre sented the country as inclement to a degree that precludes the cultivation of crops or for keeping domestic animals. Nowhere, says he, in his travels from Lake Superior to the Gulf of Mexico has he seen more luxuriant vege tation than in southeastern Alaska. Hardier vegetables all grow to maturity and to enor mous size, and cattle are sleek and in the best possible condition. The gold mines on Douglass Island, opposite Juneus, are in full operation. The deposit is represented to be truly phenomenal, and the governor says the mine promises to figure more largely in the mining history of the world than any other on record. The law prohibiting liquor traf fic is said to have been disregarded. Defects in the laws governing territorial organizations are discussed at length, and stress is laid up on the necessity for a clearer and less ambig uous code, and the advisability of allowing the people some representation in local mat ters. The report of the chief of the revenue marine service shows that the aggregate num ber of miles cruised by its vessels during the year was 312,659, In enforcing the provis ions of the law and the protection of the rev enue 24,481 merchant vessels were boarded and examined. Of this number 1425 were found violating the law in some particular and were either seized or reported to the proper authorities- The vessels so reported or seized incurred liability to fines, penalties or torfeitures amounting to 8604,515, about two-thirds of the cost of maintaining the ser vice. The relief work of the cutters has been particularly important. The number of ves sels assisted were 274, exceeding that of any former year. These vessels had on board 2542 persons and the value of the vessels and cargos were 88,560,043. Sixty persons were picked out of the water and saved from drown ing. The report further states that the rev enue cutters have co-operated beneficially with the state and national quarantine sys tems on our Atlantic and lake coasts in pre venting the introduction of cholera, yellow fever and small pox. It is claimed that the patrol which these vessels maintain on the coast against infected vessels is a very im portant feature of preventive agencies which thus far operated so successfully in averting the threatened scourge of pestilence in this country. The Governor of Washington Territory yesterday telegraphed to Secretary Lamar that the citizens of Tacoma had expelled about 200 Chinese from the city limits. The governot then telegraphed to the local au thorities at Tacoma, asking if they could pre serve order. He was informed that while order had not been perfectly preserved, yet no one had been seriously injured. Another telegram from the Mayor of Seattle stated that in view of an outbreak at Tacoma troub ble is apprehended at Seattle. The Chinese in the territory have made an urgent appeal to the governor for protection and a gubernational proclamation has been issued, calling upon all citizens to assist in the preservation of order. This action was reported to-day to Secretary Lamar, and after a conference with the President, a telegram was sent to the Governor of Washington Territory, approving the issuance of his proclamation, and directing him to use all the means in his power to prevent further trouble. The cabinet meeting today was attended by all the member except Secretaries Man ning and Whitney. Arrangements were made for special conferences between the President and individual members of his cabinet in regard to the treatment of topics to be considered in the President's message to Congress. Damage* fl35. Pittsfield, Mass., Nov. 5. The first case tried in Berkshire county under the civil damage clause of the license laws, reached a decision in the Supreme Court here today. Almira Phillips' husband, living in Lee, got drunk last winter in a saloon in that town, and on his way home fell from a load of wood, hurting himself so that he has not been able to work since. She sued the liquor seller, Michael Mahone, for 81000 and the jury gave her 8125. A Christian Act. New Yobe, Nov. 5. The net receipts today at Jerome Park races, amounting to 84000, were given to the widowed mother of young Potter, the jockey who was recently killed on the track by his hors# falling on him in a steeple chase. SPORTING. 8INOLE SCULL RACE. Caaley a ad HeKay Have a Brush—Con ley the Wiener. Worcester, Mass.. Not. 5. The three mile single scull race for $500, between Peter H Conly ot Porland. and John McKay of Boston, at Lake Quinsiga mund this forenoon, was won by Conlev by less than two lengths; time 20.20. The bet ting was two to one on Conley. At the start McKay took the lead, rowing 44 strokes a minute, Conley rowing 40. At Regatta Point McKay was leading by a length, and he more than held his own to the 14 mile turning stake. He mistook Conley’s buoy for his own, and when he discovered the mistake he was ob liged to tarn at a right angle to go to his buoy. This mistake cost him the race, for it enabled Conley to overtake him and when the stakes were turned Conley rowed away from his antagonist and obtained the lead, which he had to the finish. McKay made a splendid effort to row him down in the last quarter of a mile, but was unable to do so. Chas. F. Aldrich, formerly coxswain of the Yale University crew was referee. Fall Meeting. Lawrence, Mass., Nov. 5. This was the closing day of the fall meet ing at the Lawrence riding park. The 2.29 class was won by Bijou. The 2.40 class was won by Lady H. in three straight heats.

White, foreman of the McPherson raisin ranch, three miles east of Orange, Los Angeles county, was attacked by about 60 Chinese in the vineyard, while picking up raisins Tuesday. White knocked several of them down and defended himself until eight whites working near by came to his assistance with shovels. All the Chinamen then fled to their camp where they fortified it and armed themselves with pistols. The boss China man called on McPheraon Bros, and asked them to discharge the white men which they refused to do. Several of the Chinamen were discharged and the rest went to work. The affair haa created interne excitement amongst the white people in that section and it is feared trouble will ensue. BLOWN UP. Two Darkies Take h Sudden Trip Sky ward and Do Not Return Alive. Atlanta, Ga., Not. 5. Two colored men, W. M. Kinnebread and Phil Johnson, well diggers, were blown to atoms Wednesday, by an explosion of blast ing powder.

Instantly an explosion followed, when the two bodies were shot 60 feet in the air. One of the bodies fell on the ground abnut a hundred feet away from the well, horribly mutilated, the head being all but severed. The other body shot straight up in the air and fell back into the well. ELECTION FR A I ON. A Chicago Clerk Testifies to Cheating in a Precinct. Chicago, Nov. 6. Robert II.

The Lon don Co. agree to accept a certain sum per package for all merchandise going over the breakwater for 99 years. A Chilian paper contains the report of no less than five cases of deliberate murder. One of the victims was a conductress of a streetcar, at which tome unknown fiend threw a stone which struck her on the head with fatal effect. The complete details of the fire which broke out in Colon on the 21st inst., show that six new buildings, together with their valuable contents, were destroyed. Soon after the alarm was sounded the military were on the scene and although they took no active part in exttuguishing the fire, they were instru mental in preventing robberies or any dis order. The losses are estimated at *100,000. Two or three men were arresred having been seen with inflammable articles in their pos session. Sixteen hundred dollars has been subscribed toward the purchase of a fire en gine and although the sum is insufficient for the purchase of an engine, one will probably be ordered by a steamer leaving for New York tomorrow.

A young medical student studying for his final examination, selected as the subject of his dissertation a report on a well known dis ease indigenous to Peru, known as Oroya fever. The student caused himself to be in oculated with virus, and then awaited the re snlt. He soon exhibited all the symptoms of Oroya fever, and was confient that his exper iment would prove very valuable to the med ical profession. Unfortunately his strength was nut sufficient to withstand the virulence of the fever, and on the 5th inst, after suf fering excruciating agony, died. The police ordered investigation to prove the culpability of physicians who permitted or practiced the inoculation. The remains were followed to the grave by the scientific and medical nota bilities of Lima, who declare that the student was a martyr to science, and that his name must be associated with those of Pastern. Jenner and Ferran. The llalknn Conference. Londow, Nov. 5.

Continuing, he said “Han lan approached me definitely and deliber ately to allow him the race before I ever spoke to him on the subject. If Hanlan de nies this, he tells a falsehood. After he re ceived my letter he told his friends he was sure to defeat me, but I never intended to allow him to do so.” A Defaulter Escape*. Jackson, Mich., Nov. 5. Wesley Burchard, cashier of the Farmer's bank of Grass Lake, is missing. He is a de faulter to the amount of 918.000.

In the Superior Court this afternoon the suits of A nnie B. Stagdale ts. Dr. Wm. H. Baker and the Free Hospital for Women, on Springfield street in this city, were begun. There are two actions of tort tried together, as the evidence in both cases largely depend upon the same facts. The first is an action of tort for malpractice to recover $10.000; the second is to recover #20.000 damages in being expelled, assaulted and put out in the cold on a bleak December night, while the plaintiff was an inmate of defendant's hospital. The statements made by the plaintiff's coun sel to the jury were to the effect that on Dr. Baker's advice she went to the hospital, but after reaching there she objected to the oper ation which be proposed to perform that he performed the operation in March. 1882. against her will, and in such a bungling and careless manner that she was maimed for life; that Mrs. Stagdale remained in the hospital in a helpless condition till December 21st, following, when, as it was stated, she was informed by the hospital authorities that she must go away that night, and at about 6 o'clock in the evening, she was thrust out of doors and placed upon the doorstep in a vio lent and brutal manner; that her cries and sobbing attracted the attention of a passer by, who took her in his arms and carried her to the City Hospital, where she partially re covered. l)r. Baker makes a general denial of the charges against him, claiming that the plaintiff assented to the operation and desired it to be performed, and that the same was done for charity and without pay. In the action against the hospital it is claimed in defence that the hospital is a charitable in stitution and not liable in an action of this kind, and nothing was paid for the treatment, care and attendance that the plaintiff receiv ed. The case was only opened to the jury late this afternoon, and the evidence will be given tomorrow.| Complete Returns from Pennsylvania. Philadelphia, Not.

§attg §tnntbtt §0tmial Awsta, Friday Horning, Hot. 6. Mr. John Bright has written a letter in which he says that Ireland's greatest ene mies are her professed leaders, who incite her people to disturb the peace and destroy industry. When the women who had registered as voters in New York city and other parts oi the State attempted to vote on Toesday, they were all refused, an action which did not tend to sweeten any tempers among the rejected. The elections this year have made only a single change probable in the U. S. Sen ate. Mabone will be succeeded after March 4th, 1887, by a democrat. There is no dcubt of Sherman's re-election The Oregon legislature, which has been called together by the governor, will nrobably elect a republican to take the seat vacated by Slater (dem.) Thus for the next two years the Senate will probably stand 40 republicans, including Kiddleberger of Va.. to 36 democrats. England and France have united in a protest against the Russian proposal that Prince Alexander shall he appointed Governor of Eastern Roumelia. It had been expected that Italy would act with the Western Powers, hut its astute diplo matists have retrained from committing themselves before the conference has en tered upon its work. They have strong prepossessions in favor of attaching them selves to the majority of the European powers, and the three military Empires constitute a tremendous majority in mili tary resources and potential prestige. The Western Powers are pleading earnest ly tor a settlement that will satisfy the Balkan races, an.l at the same time are urging rigid adherence to the provisions of the Treaty of Berlin. The present condition of affairs in Can ada is far from being a satisfactory one to those who are interested in the growth and prosperity of the Dominion. Up to the first of the present month there have been nearly 2700 deaths from small-pox, and over :ll)00 cases are known to be in existence. The public is discouraged; business is suffering; and while an at tempt is being made to carry compulsory vaccination into effect, it is being re sisted, and bad blood is the consequence. The hanging of Kiel is another question, the decision of which, no matter what it may be. is almost certain to increase the ill-feeling which exists between the two races. The Knglish demand his execu tion. The French will look on it as an act of race persecution. Disputes, which are as old as the carrying into effect ol the confederation scheme, have recently risen again into prominence, and these are Increased in bitterness by the tariff schemes of the government, and its plans for preventing further annual deficits in its revenues. On almost all these ques tions the French have unf irtunately be come solid on one side and t ic Knglish on the other, and at no time during the century have the peculiar hatred and jealousies which inhere in race been so bitter as they are to-day. In short, an accumulation of vexing questions is con fronting the Dominion government to day, any one of which wouid be serious ifitweretome met alone. To increase the difficulty, the tone ol the Canadian press is anything but conservative. In some respects it is fairly incendiary. Thu latest news about the Panama Ca nal Company anil its work on tho isthmus cannot be regarded as satisfactory by shareholders or by others who have hoped that the canal would be completed under its present management. Some months ago M. de Lesseps applied to the French government for permission to igsue bonds for a new loan of #120,000,000 upon the lottery plan, but permission was not granted. Within a few days he has re newed this application. It now appears that he has called upon the shareholders for 125f. a share, and has defended this call in a letter to one of them, which has been published. There are 590,000 shares, which wore allotted to 102.230 subscrib ers. These shares were of 600f each, and 60 per cent was paid in. The new call for 125f. should yield #14.760,000. Add ing the face of tho proposed new loan we have#134,760,000 which M. de Lesseps desires to add to tho liabilities of the com pany. There has been very little news concerning the company’s work on the isthmus since tho publication of the en gineer's report in August last. Dr. Ar thur Gore, who arrived in San Francisco from Colombia a week or two ago, reports that M. de Lesseps'* failure to procure per mission to issue the lottery bonds, lias had a depressing effect upon the canal work. The company was discharging workmen, and auction sales ol mules, carts and other property, wore of frequent occurrence. Panama merchants who held "canal pa per" were feeling "very blue." Dr Gore declared that "for the #120.000.000 already expended" there was nothing to show in the way ot a canal but a superfi cial scratch in the hard mass ol volcanic rock through which it was proposed to cut a passage.” But along the route there was abundant evidence of extravagance in the shape of handsome and costly build ings- _ The President Holds His Own ■i State. [From the New York Tribune The democrats retain New York. Govern or Hill has been elected by a figure no hand lome as to make the beggarly plurality which the State gave President Cleveland almost invisible. The return of voters whom Mr. Blaine's candidacv alienated did not make i good to the republican party the loss this year i of voters whom that candidacv attracted. In i feet, the gain does not teem to have equalled j one-third or one-fourth of the loss. L The danger against which The Tribune has MrnMtlr *«ned the repablicaa* bee proved the fatal one. The stay-at-home voters de cided the matter; the vote was light, hut the republicans who did not take the trouble to vote outnumbered the democrat!.. The apathy naturally following the extraordinary strain of last year affected the party then defeated, while the democrats were flushed with their first Presidential victory for a quarter of a century. A very much smaller vote than was caat for Mr. Blaine would have suffieed to bury Mr. Hill, but the republican* were not aroused to cast such a vote. Against them were all the power and patronge of a new ad ministration The democrat* know thev can afford to neglect everything else, if they can hold New York and the Solid South. They have concentrated everything upon New York. Regardless of precedent, they have taken from that State not only the President, but the Secret*-y of the Treasury and the Sec retary of the Navy, with their enormous pat ronage and power. The Civil Service Re form Administration fought nobly for Mr. Hill, missing no opportunity, from the. pig raffles in the Custom House to the widely advertised subscriptions of the President and members of hi* Cabinet Indeed, not a sin gle republican subscription in this city, from banker, merchant or so-called millionaire, equalled that of Mr. Cleveland himself, or that of Mr. Manning or of Mr. Whitney, and hardly one equalled that of Mr Cleveland s private secretary. Thus forcibly were the virtues of supposing “offensive partisanship in office illustrated. But the republican phalanx is neither routed nor broken As the significant gain in Oneida shows, it is more heartily united than it has been at any other time for many years, and though beaten oo the State ticket, it holds both branches of the State legislature by strong majorities. The severe storm in the interior, which made the vote lighter, did not cost the republicans any seats in the leg islature. The plain truth seems to be that many republican voters did not expect to succeed this year, against the concentration of power by the Administration to sat e itself, ami therefore did not make the efforts neces sary to success. Curiously enough many other republicans, after Ohio, and after the vociferous return of certain newspapers, be came over-confident, and hence a further loss. Others thought an off year was a good time to indulge in a prohibition vote. It is not to be forgotten that a defeat of the administration this year in New York would have been a wonderful and almost un precedented phenomenon. Not once, since present political divisions have existed or for neariv half a century, has an administration been beaten in the President’s own State in the first year after his election. A defeat so humiliating, no President of either party since Van Buren has had to face. The re publican voters were not able to realize that, in a few short months, the new administra tion had so weakened itself that a full vote would have insured such a phenomenal de feat. With no Congressmen to be elected, with no direct issue to force national ques tions upon their attention, they have suffered the administration to retain the one Northern Slate upon which it has concentrated its pow er. And yet it is now plain that even the President's own State might have been car ried by the republicans this year, had they realized their opportunity. Pergonal. Mr Cleveland at church always puts a 31 greenback in the contribution box. General duster's widow is being urged for appointment as pension agent at Detroit.

The Karl of Aberdeen, a Scotch peer and Lord High Commissioner for the Queen to the Scotch Established Church, is looked upon as the successor of Shaf.esbury in re ligious and philanthropic movements. London Life tells some ancedotes of Lord Tennyson’s peculiar gruflness. On one oc casion he was at a garden party, and some body offered him a sandwich. He was labor iously munching this when the hostess rushed up to him with anxious inquiries about his health and entertainment. “Thank you, madam,” he said, “I am eating a sandwich Are your sandwiches usually made of old boots, may I ask?” Another time he was asked to read one of his poems at a house where there was a party of young girls. He blankly refused. “1 shan’t’t! he said. Presently be noticed that one of the girls was so deeply disappointed that the tears stood in her eyes. He laid his hand on her shoulder and said, “Would you like to hear me read?” •Oh. yes!" she exclaimed. “Then I will. People say I am a brute, and they are right, I will read for you.” And he took the book and delighted everybody by reading for a long time. Ueneral Newts.

Drew, Esq., of York county, ap peared before the Governor and Council in behalf of a commutation of sentence of Mrs. Barrows. The arguments employed were that Blaney’s testimony was prepared fur him by Detective Wood and the truth was so interwoven with untruth that it was difficult to separate the two, and more credit was thus given to it than it deserved. Again the coun sel for the prisoners were not allowed to see Blaney before the trial, while he was repeat edly visited by the county attorney and De tective Wood. During the trial Mr. Yeaton, counsel for Blaney, would not consult with the counsel for Mrs. Barrows regarding the defense of the prisoners, or the trial would have resulted differently. No new evi dence was offered, though especial emphasis was placed upon the fact that Blaney and Barrows several times had serious disagree ments, and it was claimed that these resulted in Blaney’s decision to commit the murder. There was no evidence to prove that Mrs. Barrows had anything to do with his reaching that decision. A letter from Judge Virgin, who tried the case.wasread by the Governor, in which that gentleman urged the commu tation of Blaney’s sentence and the matter was laid upon the table until the next regular meeting of the Council. The Bath special constable case again came before the board. Charles E. Patten, J. C. Leyard, C. F. Hay den, A. C. Palmer, Bath, appeared in favor of James Bailey as constable. They pre sented an affidavit from Mr. Maberry, for merly of the Sagadahoc House,and attempted to disprove the charges against Bailey. They said Bailey was the only man in Sagadahoc county suitable for constable. A hearing was arranged to occur at the next meeting of the Council when all parties will be heard, and it was voted to present Mr. Wakefield of Bath with a copy of the papers offered by the petitioners, that he might have an opportu nity to reply to the same. In Wilkinson’s case it was voted not to take any action. By laws prepared by Hon. W. W. Bolster, trus tee of the Maine Reform School, for the school, were presented to the board and ap proved. Carrie Swain, the charming little soubrette, although this was her first appearance here, wen the approbation of a large audience at Granite Hall last evening, in her charming comedy drama, entitled “Cad, the Tom Boy.” The play is a popular one and the manner in which she rendered it last eveuing possessed vivacity and charm which was deliciously captivating. During the play a scheme is laid between Mr. and Mrs. Disbrow to make away with Cad's mother and cousin, in order that she may not come into possession of a large fortune, but Cad, who is ever on the alert, comes to the rescue in due time, and saves her mother and fortune. A special feature of Miss Swain's niaxeup is that of the district telegraph boy. She is an artist of much merit, and was strongly supported, and she will always be cordially received by 4ugusta amusement goers. MONMOUTH.

In tail ing it struck the roof, breaking two large rafters and one beam eight inches square, landing where John Lawrence was at work; he barely escaped by leaping through a win dow, sash and all. Mr. Besse had just left the room. The chimney also fell within a lew feet of Mr. B.’s large team horses. A very narrow escape for all considering that men were at work in all parts of the building at the time. California In the Winter—The Raymond and Whitcomb Excursions. The Pacific Coast presents many attractions for people who desire to escape the rigors and discomforts of an Eastern winter, and year by year the number of visitors to Monte rey and Southern California generally in creases very greatly. There will be a full tide of excursionists the coming season, The parties now being organized by Messrs. Ray mond 4 Whitcomb are fast being filled. The second party will leave Boston December 10, and the others January 14 and February II. These excursions present many special ad vantages to persons desiring to visit Califor nia for either a short or a long period. Many of the passengers have made arrangements to pass the winter and early spring months at the magnificent Hotel de Monte at Monterey. Some will visit the Sandwich Islands, and others will make only a short stay on the Pa cific Coast, the tickets allowing the exercise or personal preferences both as to place of sojourn and time of return.

Yesterday forenoon the Governor and Council gave a hearing on the petition ask ing a commutation of sentence for Daniel Wilkinson, the Bath murderer. Herbert M. Heath, esq of this citv, the prisoner’s coun sel, appeared in his favor, and Attorney Gen eral Baker, and Countv Attorney Buker of Sagadahoc for the government. The peti tion besides asking for a commutation prayed that the prisoner might be respited a month to give time for a full investigation as pro vided in Revised Statutes, Chapter 135, Sec. 14. Mr. Heath opened for the respondent and related the facts of the murder in brief. He said: It seems that one night in September Wil kinson with the man Elliot went to Bath to rob a store. When in the act of entering the store Policeman Kingsley discovered the men and followed them, firing at them. Wilkin son took out his revolver and while running up Broad street he met Officer Lawrence, shot him and hardly stopped in his flight. He did not take his pistol out to kill Lawrence but because he was followed in the rear. Since capital punishment was last made a law in this s,-»te there have been five persons convicted oi murder in the first degree. The first oases were of those of the two Italians who were hung. The others convicted are in State Prison at Thoms ston, viz. Wilkin son, Mrs. Barrows and Oscar BUney. Now gentlemen, I hold, and without bias, that, ot these five the one whose crime approached nearest murder in the second degree is Daniel Wilkinson. There must be, according to the law of our State, to be murder in the first de gree, a cool and deliberate intention of com mitting crime. Now how does this rule of law apply in thia instance? In the case of the two Italians, it is clear that they deliber ately planned the execution of their fellows, and there are mitigating circumstances in the case of Oscar E. Blaney, because he tes tified for the government. With Mrs. Blaney there was every element of delibera tion. It was a cold blooded, Atrocious butch ery. Where in the crimes of the other four murders, there was deliberate intent, Wilk inson's act was committed in a second, and he did not even know that be had killed the officer when he fled. If, gentlemen, a broad view of this case is taken, in connection with the others, clemency should be extended. County Attorney Buker of Sagadahoc Coun ty, who was one of the prosecuting attorneys at the trial, opened for the government. He believed the counsel for the res pondent was doing his whole duty and agreed to the facts presented bv Mr. Heath. Mr. Buker then related the story of a Portland hotel-keeper, who it was alleged overheard certain conversation be tween Wilkinson and Elliot at Portland previ ous to the murder. Later on however, Mr. Heath showed that the testimony of the Port land man when on the stand did not sustain the story. Mr. Buker cited Judge Libbev's ruling, that it was not necessary for Wilkin son to go to Bath with the intention of killing any one man, but might have a general in intention of killing anvone who obstructed mm. Attorney General Baker continued for the government and referring to the statement of Wilkinson’s counsel, that Wilkinson’s crime was on the border line between murder in the first, and murder in the second degree, said, there is no doubt that this Board has a right to commute the sentence of the prisoner if they see fit. But it is the duty of the court to fix the degree of crime. I do not think it was the intention of the legislature in making a law in this matter, that a case should be re viewed by the Governor and Council, I do not apprehend that a member of this Board would have been constrained by prin ciplesof law to giveBlaney clemency,unless it had been by reason of the fact that he was a witness for the Slate. In Mrs Barrow’s case I agree with the counsel that it was cold blooded and atrocious. There is no ques tion that Wilkinson was rightly convicted un der the law passed by the legislature. In Blaney's there are extenuating circum stances which should be taken into account. It was the finding of the jury that Wilkinson armed hiniself with a deadly weapon, pre vious to the murder, and shot at Lawrence with the general intent of killing I urge the necessity of caution in pardoning nr commuting the sentence of prisoners, and that there should be a halt. Mr. Heath believed that the reasons given by Mr Yeaton for a commutation in Blaney’s case were sound. All I ask for Daniel Wil kinson is even-handed justice, and that the same law and clemency be meted nut to him as to the others. A party paid ten dollars for a horse at an auction sale. The horse was lam-and bruised all over. A bottle of Salvation Oil costing 25 cents was used; he is now valued at two hundred dollars. IttarnrU.

Among civilized men, as well as among the lower races, the practice of making wedding presents has been carried to great extremes, because of their coercive nature and particularly as they have been made a test of social standing. Notwith standing much popular disapprobation of these gifts, they still continue, though commonly devoid of the expression of much feeling; and though, besides, as ar ticles of assistance to a newly married pair, they are failures, for among the poor they are too insufficient, and among the rich they are not needed. No gift custom is more coercive than this, and the single ness of the coercion has been multiplied many told by the creation of anniversary observances. There are no less than 14 of these, cotton, paper, leathern, wooden, woolen, tin, silk and fine linen, crystal, china, silver, pearl, ruby, golden and dia mond. Between the lines of a wedding invita tion one may always read, “Don’t come to the wedding unless you bring a pres ent.” One exception to this, however, came to light this year, lor a New Haven editor mentions the receipt of wedding cards stamped with the unusual phrase, “no presents,” showing that there are at least two persons who will not take ad vantage ol this gift custom abuse. The gifts are not everywhere restricted to the bride and groom. In India expensive presents are bestowed, and the parents of the bride are often impoverished for life by the dowrv which they give her. When a great wedding takes place troops of beg gars and priest appear, and they must not be sent away empty-handed. At a recent marriage, 10,000 people were sumptuous ly fed and presented with clothing and money. There are people among whom the expected hospitalities on the occasion of a daughter's marraiage are so costly as to excuse female infanticide, on the ground that the ruinous expense which rearing the daughter would eventually en tail is thus avoided.— Good Housekeeping. Helps to Homebody. Press the finger against the upper lip, close the nostrils, to prevent a sneeze. Strike a clock, then put on the hands at the hour struck, in order to have them correspond. For cramp in the feet, press the hollow of the foot against something hard and round a broom handle is the best thing. Add to the covered brick used as a weight for holding a door open, a strip of covering sewed strongly to the sides, and raised just enough to admit the foot, then lift it by the toes and save stooping. An aid in making button holes in a garment which frays badlv is to take a piece of glue, that has a smooth, and rath er thick edge, dip it slightly in hot water, and pass lightly over the goods before cutting the button holes. The result will be satisfactory. In case of very sudden sickness, which often proves to be pneumonia, apply a plaster of soft soap and Indian meal from the throat down below the bowels the first thing; at the same time send for the doc tor. tor unless immediate help is secured, it may prove fatal in a short time. In putting away summer or winter clothing for the season, label all packages on the outside, and keep handy a memo randum book with the contents of each trunk, drawer or closet, specified it will prove a saver of time and vexation. One often forgets just where a bundle, or mit tens, scarfs, etc., were put, especially if the accustomed place has been changed. Keep it you can, a closet for the sole use of medicines, and appliances tor sick ness or accidents. A narrow, high chim nevside closet answers the purpose ad mirably, with shelves half way down and deep drawers to fill the remaining space. Bundles of old, soft cotton and linen pieces, a roll of cotton batting and flannel, the rubber water bag. medicine dropper, bed pan, and feeding cup, and everything needed in an emergency and long sick ness. Have every vial plainly labeled, those marked poison place always on the upper shelf. Keep the whole under lock and key, the key beyond the reach of children, but easily accessible to older members of the family. Practical ItecipcH. Hasty Cup Pupping.—Beat four spoon fuls of flour with a pint of milk and four eggs to a good batter, nutmeg and sugar to taste; butter teacups, fill three parts full and send them to the oven. Will bake in a quarter of an hour. Bef.f Fritters.—Beef fritters are nice for breakfast; chop pieces of steak or cold roast beef verv fine. Make a batter of milk, flour and an egg, and mis the meat with it. Put a lump of butter into a saucepan, let it melt, then drop the batter into it from a large spoon. Fry until brown: season with pepper and salt and a little parsley. Recooking Cold Meat.—Take any cold pieces and about one-eighth of the quantity of cold boiled fat salt pork, and mince together very fine. Season with salt, pepper and a squeeze of onion juice, if liked, and form into flat cakes, with egg and bread crumbs, and fry until light brown. Have some potatoes nicely mash ed and arranged on a nice platter, and serve the meat cakes on the potatoes. Have a brown sauce to send to the table with them. Corn-starch Cake.—Two cups sugar, one cup butter, rubbed to a cream; cup milk, two cups flour, three eggs, whites and yolks beaten separately; one-half cup corn starch, two teaspoonfuls cream of tartar, silted well through the flour; one teaspoonful soda, dissolved in hot water. Sift the corn starch with the floor and add the last thing. Bake in small tine and eat while M• days and become insipid, bat are very nice for twenty-four hoars after they ore baked. Mikce Pres.—Two pounds fresh bee! boiled, and when cold chopped fine one pound beef suet cleared of strings and minced to powder; Are pounds apples pared and chopped; two pounds raisins seeded and chopped; one pound Sultana raisins washed and picked over; two pounds currants wisocd and carefully picked over; three-fourths pound citron cut np fine; two tablespoonfuls cinnamon; one powdered nutmeg; two tablespoon fuls mace; one tablespoonful cloves; one tablespoonful allspice; one table spoonfnl fine salf; two and a half pounds brown sugar; one quart sherry and one pint best brandy.

Boil the milk and stir into it the meal, flour and salt. Boil fifteen minutes, stirring well up from the bottom. Put in the butter and beat hard in a bowl tor three minutes. When cold put iu the eggs whipped light with the sugar, the seasoning and soda; whip up very faithfully. Bake in greased cups in a steady oven. Turn out of cups and eat with pudding sauce or with butter alone. Hints About Horses. The following suggestions as to driving and care are credited to an exchange by the Greeley Tribune. “Bad driving will often fatally injure a horse in a few miles; while skillful driving would make the journey in less time and leave the horse as fresh as when he started. Drive slow ly when the animal is full of food and water; but after the muscles are limbered and the system emptied, increase the speed. Then check up and let the horse cool off betore stopping, and there will be less danger of taking cold and of stiff muscles, and less necessity for rubbing down. Drive slowly up hill and down; and make good time on level ground and on moderate descents. Never keep the same gait and speed tor a long time, for a change of gait is equivalent to a rest. “Never ride a horse without first making his acquaintance and securing his good will. Go to his head, speak kindly, pat him, look in his eyes. Whether you are friend or foe he will judge by your voice, your eye and your breath. Horses judge a man as quickly as a man does a horse. Feed and water abundantly at night after work, and the animal has had time to rest and cool off. Feed moderately in the morning or before work. Parthians and Arabs prepare their horses for hard work by fasting rather than feasting. More horses are injured by hard driving on a full stomach thau by any other process. Never let a horse eat or drink much when he is hot from work. Study your horse, treat him according to his nature, make him your triend, and be will do better and safer service.” Let Foreign Stock Alone. The enormous falling off in the impor tation of live stock since 1883 is the cheer ing result of the constant hammering given by honest and judicious breeders and the opposition of several leading ag ricultural journals against the indiscrimi nate importation of “fancy” stock to the great detriment of legitimate breeders and farmers. In May, ’84, there were 4,126 cattle imported; in May, ’85, only 982— and in May. ’86, it is to be hoped there will be 0. The falling off in sheep was from 757 to 43 in the same period. It is a great saving ot good American gold which went to the fancy foreign breeders and a large amount ot greenbacks which passed into the capacious pockets of hippodrome speculators and boomers. It is a happy deliverance. We sheepkeepers are es pecially grateful. Our native sheep have been neglected and derided in favor of English breeds and there are no sicker shepherds than those who have been trying tor years to make the pampered foreign breeds tit our uncongenial climate and rougher surroundings.—Laniyer. Relative Value of Eggs. Eggs, says the Atlanta Constitution, are the only product that has held its own amid all the fluctuations of trade. Bonds may go down or up, gold may rise or fall on its standard, cotton may decline or go up, but eggs stick. Some years ago a dozen eggs would buy a yard ot calico— now it buys three. It would buy two and one half pounds of flour—now it buys five. And so on through the chapter. While everything else has dropped, eggs have stood on their old high-water mark. If gold gives out, a grateful nation may yet make eggs the standard value. Two Giddy Girls. Who Got Themselves into an Unpleasant Dilemma. On a train in Ohio were two giddy young girls. In the seat in front of them sat a man. The man's overcoat was on the seat beside him. As the train stopped at a station the man got up and walked out. The girls saw him go into the station. Soon the train started, but they did not see the man anv more. “There, he’s gone and left his overcoat,” said one of the girls. It's too bad,” said the other, “for it’s such a nice one. And he may need it to keep his little body warm.” Then the giddy girls giggled, and when the 1 conductor came throug informed him of the I man's loss. The offlei»4 with the indiffer ence of his class.said that would be all right. “It’s a shame.” ejaculated one of the girls. “We'll take care of the man’s coat for him, won’t we. Kit? We’ll take it to the station agent in our town, and maybe he can restore ft to the man.” J- So the girls cared for the overcoat. They pulled it over their teat, and in doing so thev happened to glance into the pockets of the garment, and saw there a miscellaneous assortment of letters and things. The girls looked at each other as they laid the coat over the seat between them. But after that neither seemed to be happy. Their giggles disappeared, and there was a strange, dissatisfied look in their eyes. They looked at the scenery. They read fitfully at novels. They yawned. But every few minutes their eyes wandered toward the coat pocket. Gentle women was never intended to with stand such temptations, and ere long a small, eager hand was reached into the depths of that overcoat pocket. As it came out a dozen letters came out with it. Some of theae let ters contained photographs, one a lock of hair, and several expressions which made the two giddy girls laugh. Just as they had driven into the contents of the pocket, and with eager eyes were drinking in the feast for their curiosity they heard behind them a I whistle, at first low and incredulous, then louder and louder with amazement. The giddy girls turned their beads, and there stood the owner of the overcoat and letters. Be bad been in the rear car.—Chi cago BtrmUL Important faeta: That the greatest evils have often had their rise from causes which were deemed, originally, of too little important® to occasion solicitude; and that fatal re sults proceed from the neglect of trivial ailments. Philip G. Raymond, Duluth, Minn., writes: Ayer's Sarsaparilla cured me of Kidney Complaint, from which I had suffered for years.” The transmission of a message over a Telegraph wire is not a more positive proof of the electric current, than are pimples and boils of the contamination of the blood by im pure mutter. Albert H. Stoddard, 59 Rock st., Lowell, Mass., says: For years my blood has been in a bad condition. The circulation was so feeble that I suffered greatly from numbness of the feet and legs; I was also afflicted with boils. After taking three bottles of Ayer's Sarsaparilla my blood circulates freely, and I have no bolls or numbness.” Like an Electric shock, the pains of Rheumatism dart through the body. Rheumatism is a blood disease, and needs an alterative treatment. Charles Foster, 370 Atlantic ave., Boston, Mass., says: Two years ago I was pros trated by Rheumatism. I tried a variety of remedies, with little benefit, until I began using Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Tbts helped me, and, at the end of the fifth bottle, I was entirely cured.” Miss A. Atwood, 143 I st.. South Boston, Mass., says: I have been ill a long time, from poverty of the blood and abscesses. Discoveries are made by scientists, from time to time, which astonish the world, but there has been no discovery, la science or medicine, more Important than that of Ayer’s Com pound Extract of Sarsaparilla, which has restored health and strength to thousands. Ben]. F. Tucker, Pensacola, Fla., writes: Ayer’s Sarsaparilla cured me of Liver and Bilious troubles, when everything else failed.” The usefulness of the Telephone is enhanced by the fact that it can be used to order Ayer's Sarsaparilla from your druggist. Dr. John Hoffman, Morrisania, N. Y., writes: “In all diseases arising from an impure and vitiated condition of the blood, there is no relief so prompt and sure as that afforded by Ayer’s Sarsapa rilla.” Dr. A. B. Koberson, Chapel Hill, X. C., writes: “I wish to express my appreciation of Ayer's Saasaparilla. I have used it in my practice, in Scrofulous cases, with excellent results.” Lighting up the faces, and relieving the sufferings of thousands, Ayer's Sarsaparilla has brought happiness to the homes of rich and poor alike. Mrs. Joseph Perreault, Little Can ada, Harris Block, Lowell, 31ass., is m widow; the only support of three children. Several months ago she was suffering from general debility, and was compelled to give up work. Medical attendance failed to do any good, but, by the use of a bottle of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, she has been enabled j to resume her work, and is gaining strength daily. Use Ayer’s Sar Ayer’s Sar saparilla. saparilla has had the effect of toning me up. Under its use I am fast gaming color, appetite, and strength.” No other preparation is so universally esteemed for its purifying and invigor* ating qualities. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
