VOL. XVI. ADGUSTA. MAINE. TUESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 24. 1885 NO. 260. II LECTURE ON MAN. mot a piece of work is man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculties! in form and moving how express and admirable! in action ho* like an angel! in apprehension hov like a god! the beauty of the world! the paragon of animals:—S11A KESPEA RE. 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 uj) 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 does not obtain with any other proprietary article,) ami command at the hands of the drujxsrists in New England a larger sale than any other medicine.

Jones of the 16th. published in tile New York Tribune or the 50th and republished in the New Orleans Times-Democrat of the 21st and elsewhere, and deem it proper only to say that I regard Mr. Jones as an assassin and in support of inv conclusion I publisii the following unsolicited telegram from Gen. Will Martin Natchez, Niss., June 13. J. Floyd King, Washington. If Jones, appointed to Callao, is Cuthbert Bullit Jones, second son of Charles Jones of CatalouU, it can be proved beyond question that he was one of the assassins of General Liddell and fled the country to avoid the consequences of murder. (Signed) Will T. Martin. As a representative in Congress from the 5th Louisiana district, in which the murder occurred, my opposition to Jones’ appoint ment to office has been earnest and uncom promising. I can have no controversy with a man of his character, nor can I notice any attacks he makes on me in such wav as tilt public might expect if it had come from any reputable source. (Signed) J.

Three Persons Smotheied—A Bohemian Arrested lor Setting the Fire. New York, Nov. 23. The accidental upsetting of a kerosene lamp in the rooms of Otto Matzorzak, on the third floor of a five story tenement house on East 64th streeet, this morning, caused the loss of three lives. The house and the one adj >in- I were filled with Bohemian cigar makers em ployed in a neighboring cigar factory, and 150 people were sleeping in the building when the cry of fire was raised. The flames communicated to the floors above though air shafts, and a scene of wild confusion and panic ensued. The frightened tenants took to fire escapes with all haste, and as firemen soon extinguished the flames it was thought that all escaped, but in the rear room of the top floor of No. 404 were found a Bohemian widaw, forty years old, and her two children, aged eleven and six years, lying dead. They had been smothered. The report spread early among the homeless ten ants that the house had been deliberately set on fire by one of their number. Henry Kohul a Bohemian cigar maker, was named as the guilty one. He had disappeared and could not be found until later in the morning. By that time the police had collected evidence enough to make a charge of arson and mur der against him. The excitemeut of the Bohemians had be come furious, and threats of lynching were made if Kohul were found. A stratagem was resorted to, and when Kohul turned up at the cigar factory he was told to go to the office and settle up his insurance. He was not let out again until the police had been sent for and a sufficient number arrived to protect him Kohul was insured for $900, while his furniture was scarcely worth $75. Kohul was identified by one of the tenants as the man who threw something like water out of a pail on tile burning stairs. It blazed up the min ute it struck the stairs and then the witness thought it was kerosene. Kohul was ar raigned in court on charge of arson. A HOAX. An Alleged Coufession Proves to be En tirely IJutouuded. Boston, Not. 23. Its reported that Frazier CuulitI, the negro who has always been suspected of the horri ble murder of Mrs. Carleton in Watertown, and who was recently sentenced to six years in the State Prison for burglary in New York, has made a full confession to New York officers, in which he gives all the details of his terrible crime, and implicates the hus band of Mrs. Carleton. The alleged confession by the negro, Fra zier Cunliff in New York, of the murdering of Mrs. Etta Carleton of Watertown, Mass., is now shown almost conclusively to be a hoax. A private dispatch has been received in this city trom Chief Inspector Byrnes ol New York, in which he stated tnat he knew nothing of any such confession, and did not know of and had no record of the arrest of Cunliff for burglary. The way the report came about was this This morning, about 10.30, Officer Wiley of the second police of Cambridge, was approached by a short, thick set man, who asked him if he could direct him to the house of Mr. Underwood on Mag azine street, and said he was looking for Mrs. Brooks, a woman who was at the Carle ton’s house the week immediately following the murder, and who took charge of the chil dren of the murdered woman until they were taken by relatives. This led to further con versation, and during the walk to the house he informed Officer Wiley that he was from New York and was in the employ of Chief Inspector Byrnes that Frazier Cunliff had been arrested for burglary and sentenced to six years in the penitentiary and while in the Toombs had confessed of the murder of Mrs. Carleton to the inspector. He said he was over here looking the matter up. When he reached the house of Mr. Underwood—who is a son-in-law of Mrs. Brooks—he asked for her, but found she was away. Whether he was told where to Iook for her or not is not known. After he left an effort was made to ascertain definitely his business with Mrs. Brooks. Underwood stated that the man’s call was in reference to an insurance litiga tion over the burning of the house occupied by the Carletons in Watertown and that noth ing was said about the Carleton murder.

No News From the Battle ol Saturday— The Servian* Bombard Widdin With out Decisive Eflect-King Milan Forced to Retreat. London, Nov. 23. Dispatches from Servia are silent In regard to Saturday’s battle with the exception of a vague statement that the Bulgarians are re treating. The public at Belgrade are anxious and alarmed. King Milan, it is stated, de sires to retrieve his losses before agreeing to an armistice. The News has a dispatch from Sofia which say8 that Servian prisoners there state that King Milan intended to celebrate his birthday in Sofia, and that he promised his soldiers a rare feast of roast mutton and good wine on the occasion. A dispatch to the Post from Constantinple says that the Balkan conference has resolved in favor of the appointment of a temporary governor of Roumelia, of a commission to in quire into the future administration of the country. A telegram from Sofia says that the Ser vians have bombarded Widdin and that the city is on fire. The bombardment of Widdin continued for an hour without decisive result. The Bul garians replied vigorously to the Servian fire. Belgrade. Nov. 23. A diversion by a force of oOOO Servians in the direction of Sofia, aided Col. Topalovitch to win a victory Sunday. Thirty carriages containing about twelve hundred wounded soldiers arrived here yesterday. The Queen's sister. Princess Ghika, personally attended to the suffers, and gave them refreshments and tobacco. A large number of ladies assisted her in the work, Every building in the citv is crowded with wounded soldiers. Subscription lists have been openod throughout Austria and Hungary in aid of the Servians. Liberal responses are being made to appeals for help Many more wounded soldiers are expected to arrive here soon. There are (1000 wounded men at Pirot. The Bulgarian prisoners who tiave been brought here state that many Hussains and English men are serving as officers or privates in the Bulgarian army. An official report says that King Milan has brought his main force into operation with the Driva ami Moravia divisions and that a decisive attack on Slivnitza is imminent. It is also stated that if King Milan is victorious he will agree to an armistice so as to allow the conference of powers to settle the terms of peace. The Austrian minister here visited Queen Natalie, Sunday. It is reported that he is urging the government to accept Prince Alexander’s offer of an armistice. Belgkade, Nov. 23. Only trifling skirmishing took place today between the Servians and Bulgarians, as both sides are awaiting reinforcements. The Ser vians are preparing for a powerful bombard ment of Slivnitza, prior to the attack by in fantry on that town. Meanwhile the popular hated Bulgarians has dwindled, owing to Prince Alexander’s submission to the Porte. Hopes of final victory are fading, and there is much depression. Foreign intervention is eagerly hoped for. On account of the strength of the forts at Slivnitza and their obstinate resistance, the Servians call that town “Flevnicza,” or “Little Plevna.” Foreign diplomatic representatives here are of the opinion that the powers are about to intervene, believing that both sides have suf fered enough,while the results are indecisive. Austria alone hesitates. The iiussian gov-1 jernment has requested the Servian minister at St. Petersburg to notify his government of Russia's formal disavowal of the conduct of Servians. King Milan lias been forced to retreat by the failure of the commisarat of Servia. He will remain on the defensive at the frontier till the arrival of Gen. Lesligarin’s division and the rest of the reserves. The under foreign secretary states that al though King Milan has not agreed to the armistice he has not assumed the offensive since the 20th inst.

Susannah Prescott, at Groton, Nov. 12th, begun Monday morn ing. A large crowd was in attendance, and the utmost interest manifested. The pris oners will be heard separately, and the hear ing will probably last two days. Several witnesses testified to seeing blood spots upon the floor in Baker’* room, upon the door of his room and upon the stairs; also upon Mrs. Baker’s cloths and that Mrs. Bilker had told conflicting stories as to how the blood came on her clothing. Detective Heed, who made a thorough examination of the house on the day after the murder, testified that he saw no blood on the door of Baker's room nor on the stairs. This statement caused a sensa tion in the court room. Heed also testified that Augustus Wood (the neighbor on whom the Bakers have sought to throw suspicion) rold him that he (Wood) had gone back and lorth from Mr*. Prescott’* room to Baker's kitchen on the morning after the murder, which statement directly contradicted Un sworn testimony of Wood.

NARROW ESCAPE Prom a Serious Accident oil the Brook lyn Bridge. New York, Nov. 33. An accident occurred on the Hrooklvn bridge Monday morning. A train of three cars left the Brooklyn side, and after run ning down the incline reached the cable. The grips of the first cars failed to catch the cable, and the train was too heavy for the grip of the third car alone, so it gave way. The train ran back, and as it neared the sta tion it collided with tile following train, which had just started ami taken the grip. The platform ot the descending rear car struck the front platform of the ascending car, smashing the platforms and nearly all the windows. A general panic among the passengers of both trains followed the crash, and in the mad rush for safety by the pas sengers, many men and women were injured, but fortunately only slightly. But for the fact that the brakemen applied their brakes and prevented the cars from coming together with great force, a far more dis tressing accident might have occurred. INJUNCTION GRANTED Restraining the New York Central R. R. from Guaranteeing Komis. Syracuse, N. Y., Nov. 33. Saturday evening last, Justice Kennedy of the Supreme Court, on motion of Louis Mar shall, granted an injunction restraining the N. Y. 0. K. li. Co. from guaranteeing $50, 000,000 bonds ot the West Shore road, and from perfecting the lease of the West Shore for four hundred years. Mr. Marshall rep resents 339 shares of the capital stock ot the N. Y C. R. R. The order is returnable on Saturday next The injunction is the out growth of the rejection of Marshall's protest made before the meeting of the directors of the Central road in Albanv, Nov. 4 At that time he argued that the leasing of the West Shore by the contract was against public policy and therefore void; that the statutes of the state forbid the consolidating of par allel and competing lines of railroad, and it would entail an addition of 850,000,000 to the Centrail road, and thus deprecate the Central stock. The New York Investigntinn. New York. Nov. 23. Ex-Tax Commissioner Aston testified be fore the Senate investigating committee to day in relation to the tax di pirtment. He was asked hnw it happened he was not re appointed by Mayor Grace and replied that it was probably because the mayor “couldn’t use” hint. The witness refused to remove two assessors for the mayor, much to the latter's discomfiture. He believed Mayor Grace made deals with political organizations in the last election.

NO CAUSE FOR ALARM. The Story that Counterfeit Cola is ii Circolatioa Prove* to he Uafoaatled. Ottawa, Not. 28. The statement has been quite freely spread that there is in circulation here a number of counterfeit silver coin. The finance depart ment has been investigating the statement and traces it to the fact that the new coinage lias not the letter “H” in small tire under neath the wreath below the denomination of the coin. The finance department desire to have it generally known that sometimes when the royal mint is unable to do the work for Canada and other colonies, owing to the pres- sure of previous engagements, the mint authorities employ Heaton Sons of Bir mingham to manufacture the coin, in which case that firm put the letter “H" on, and when the royal mint does the work itself no “II" is stamped on the coin.

The Adaptability of Water Gas fob Heating, Lighting and Power Pur poses to the Exclusion of Coal, With a Comparison of the Cost of Each. The Novelties Exhibition closed recent ly after a successful run of six weeks. With out doubt the most striking exhibit, and one that attracted the greatest amount of attention from thoughtful people, was the display of fuel water gas. for heating, lighting and power purposes, by the I .owe Manufacturing Company of Norristown, Pa. The exhibit was complete in every respect and showed conclusively that the gas could accomplish all that was claimed for it by its inventor. Prof. T. S. C. Lowe, the head of the company. “What is fuel water gas?” was asked a thousand and one times each day at the rooms of the exhibit by curious visitors. It is a gas made from pure water, intend ed to supplant coal, wood and other solid fuels as a means of furnishing heat to dwellings for cooking and other purposes, and of supplying manufacturers with pow er lor their mills and factories. “How can this be done “How will it com pare in cost with the present method “Where can we obtain this gas?" were among the many questions that followed this explanation. In order to give the reader a clear understanding of the claims this gas has of becoming the fuel of the luture. we will quote from a lecture on "Water Gas,” delivered by Prof. Lowe on the 22d instant, iu the annex ot tiie Novelties Exhibition. On the platform were erected for the occasion a complete water gas works and all the appliances necessary to illustrate the lecture. The Professor explained that the method of making the gas was by converting water into steam. This steam.after being high ly superheated over a firebrick surface, is passed through a bed of incandescent coal, which has been healed at the same time with the tire briek. This treatment changes the oxygen ot the water into carbon non oxide, which, with the hydrogen,becomes a eomlmstible iras. Ii is then washed and purified, and conveyed to a holder when it is ready for distribution. The Professor then asserted that this gas could tie furnished to the consumers at 30 cents per 1000 feet. In proof of this lie showed that four tons of coal, employ ing the labor of one man would generate 250,000 feet. At 30 cents per 1000 feet. $1H.75 would lie realized on each ton ot coal consumed at an expense ol .$4.50, which would include the cost of labor, be sides tiie consumer would receive the same amount of fuel at much less cost than under the present system. The Professor further stated that even at 50 cents per 1000 feet, it would tie cheaper for domestic heating, cooking and light ing than the methods now in use. l’he subject of natural gas, that is now receiving so much attention in the western part of this State, was discussed at some length, and it was shown that the plan of carrying this gas in pipes to the cities of tiie seaboard will make its cost to Eastern consumers greater than that of luel water gas manufactured on tiie spot, while the latter possesses the advantage of being ca pable ot utilization lor all heating, incan* descent lighting and power purposes. The. cost of gas in large cities was taken up, and tiie statement was made that New York pays for illuminating gas more than $30,000 per day, or $12,776,000 per an num, while the cost of the same article to Philadelphia, is over $15,000 per day. Heft rring to the establishment of fuel gas works in large cities, the speaker said At 30 cents per 1000 cubic feet, at which price luel gas would be used to the exclu sion of all other luel, at least five times as much gas would be used for fuel as is now used for light, and probably ten times as much. A consumption of 100,000,000 feet daily at this price would amount to $60, 000 per day, while the cost ol manufac turing the gas and conducting the busi ness of the company could be paid out of 10cents per 1000 feet, leaving a net profit of $20,000 per day. or $7,300,000 per an num. which would pay six percent inter j est on a capital of $121,000,000. or 10 per cent on $73,000,000. A consumption of but 60,000,000 feet daily, would pay an annual profit of $3,650,000, an amount i sufficient to pay six per cent on 60,000,000, or 10 percent on $66,500,000. New York employs a capital ot ?lo, 1000,000 in the manufacture of illuminat ing gas. One-fourth of the amount would establish a plant to furnish heat, light and power for all purposes, with enormous profit to the company. Philadelphia.with her numberless manufactories, would use immense quantities of this fuel, and it can lie made at her doors as cheaply as the in ferior natufal gas can l>e brought thither from the wells. Capital is sure to find, at an early day. a safe and profitable invest ment in supplying this improvement to towns and cities everywhere. The method of generating water gas was then shown bv means of the appara tus on the platform, and, as steam could not bo had for the purpose, it was pro posed to make the gas from a block of ice which was at hand. The tanning up of the coal in the generator, and the gradual rising ot the little holder as the gas passed into it, were observed with intense inter est by all present; and when the lighted jet at the top of the holder showed that what was ice a few moments before had been changed to gas there was hearty ap plause from all. The application of an incandescent burner to the jet, producing a brilliant white light; the lighting ot a “diamond light,” which gave an effect similar to that oi electricity, and the il lumination ot the hall by an immense chandelier containing 60 incandescent burners, followed: and at the close of the lecture a large part ot the audience re mained to examine the processes ot heat ing and cooking which were shown on the platform. There has never been a scheme pro posed that offered a more secure invest ment for our surplus capital and promised greater profits than the formation of a syndicate for the introduction of this fuel gas into this and every other city and town on the continent of from 1000 inhabitants up. Its introduction will be eagerly wel comed by housekeepers and manufactur ers, for aside from the fact that it is much cheaper than solid fuels, the knowledge that it will dispense with the handling of wood and coal aod will leave no ashes to dispose of will commend it favorably to every community. The manufacturer who uses steam, in estimating the cost of his productions, will admit that fuel absorbs a considerable share of his expenses. In the district where natural gas abounds the factories that use coal cannot compete with those that use natural gas as fuel, and the time is not far distant when the manufacturers ot the East will be unable to comneie with those of the West unless some means of obtaining cheaper tuel is assured them. The Lowe luel water gas is the key to the situation. This can be supplied'as cheap as natural gas if a stock company is formed to furnish the necessa ry funds. This is worthy of considera tion at the hands of capitalists. It would be supposed after reading the above that this gas could only be u«ed for heating and power purposes. This is not so, however. About nine months ago Professor Lowe after much study suc ceeded in applying it to illuminating pur poses. An incandescent light is produced by allowing a lighter jet of the cheap fuel gas to come in contact with a spiril of in destructible metai. This is heated to a white heat, becoming brilliantly luminous, the gas meanwhile burning apparently without flame. There is positively no flickering ot tne light, as is the case with gas. The cheapness of the gas used in producing the light may be indicated by the statement of the inventor that a light of twenty candlepower will cost the con sumer but one-on the throat aud lungs. We have no other remedy which I consider so sure iu its effects.” C. II. Tierce, Moline, III., writes: “Catarrh had nearly destroyed my sense of tustc and smell. Ayer's Cher ry Pectoral effected a complete cure.” Ayer s Cherry Pectoral Has effected many wonderful cures. Mrs. Mary K. Whitcomb, Hartford, Coum, writes: "Some years ago my mother had an obstinate cough, with severe pains in the chest, and several attacks of bleeding from the lungs. She was very much reduced in strength, and believed herself about to become a victim of Consumption. While in this condition, she was strongly recommended by Rev. T>r. Rluncbard, of Lowell, Mass., to make a trial of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. She did so, and by its use was restored to perfect health. Since her recovery the Pectoral has been her sole dependence for colds, coughs, aud all similar troubles, which it has never failed to cure." PREPARED BY Or. J. C.
