WORRYING CIVIL OFFICBR8 i )ssp*fete Attempt to Rsleeee e Pris oner from Custody. Euik, Pa July 31,—Chauncy Marble, ho venerable counterfeiter, to whom the Jnlted States Court sent a capias, is safe n the Erie county jail after a most exciting ontem betVeen the wealthy lum iprman's friends and the United Batts officers. Marble, who had ieen indicted for passing and manufacturing ounterftit money at his home near Colum ms, in Warren county, wsa#out on bail. Vbtn his case was called physicians testi- Ud that he was too sick to be in court It a me to the years of the judge that the realthv cjunterfeiter was taking too much utdiciae Hence the capias. United State* Marshall Garring and Se- Service Officer* McSweeney and Me- Janus, after being assu ed by a physician »i»t Marble was able to 'move, forced him mo his clothe*. White on tha way to ’orry the posse was stopped at the Coluni us bridge. Garring and McSweeney re mlstd the would-be rescuers and then lashed through to Cofty. Marble’s friends trumped up charges of ait driving, poiuting weapons, etc., and nade a raid on the St. James Hotel in tbe light with warrants. They caught Me >weeoey, and failing to get him awav or to ind Marble, they waited till this morning b renew their tactic*. Garring was **i/ *d it the depot ar d dragged off to a magistrate's fflee, but he held on to Ins prisoner. Gar mg protested against the proceedings and Inally got bis man into court. The United States district attorney will :ommence proceedings at once against the nsgistrates, constables and others, who larticipated in the conspiracy to secure the elease of tin notorious but wealthy old ounterfeiter. His trial comes up to norrow. Second Day Trotting et South Nor rldgewock. A large crowd attended the second day's rotting at Elmwood Park. The races were [ood and created much enthusiasm. The luminaries: *.4t „rodfd some of the most cen ral streets. To prevent a recurrence of bis and to raise the levees to the proper leight, the last legislature created the New >rlcan* levee board anJ levied a tax on all iroperty io the city for that purpose. The >oard has now set about the work and de cided on building a new levee completely irouod the city eighteen and a half feet ibove low water, or about two feet higher ban at present. This has proved an expensive work, and its entailed other expenses ard a great leal of wrangling. It was found, for in itance, that the raising of the levee ren lered it very difficult for floats or drags to etch the wharves, and the entire wharf 'font will have to he raised to conform rith the levees. The* work, which will lost flf»Q 0C0, was ordered hy the city :ouncil last week, and several wharves rere lorn up preparatory to raising them. >ut this work was stopped by tbe mayor reto yesterday, and the wharves remain era up, much to the disgust of mmhsnts, flippers and railroad* Moreover, the Levee Board left a number if houses in the upper or Sixth district out ide the levee and at the mercy of the river, in the ground that it was useless to build a lyke, as it would soon sink into the river rhe owners of the property gave notice to lay that they would not be sacrificed, and hreatened to bring suit for tbe valua of heir property unless vine protection was .(forded them, particularly as they arc pay ng the levee tax. The board, however, Jaims the right to run the levee lines where t pleases and through any street, and the esult threatens a great deal of litigation rhe wharves will probably be rip»ir»*d eroporarily by the Louisville and Nashville tail road. TBE SHOT HIM ro Avangt Hsr Wrongs Attar H« Had Dlagardsd Har Jacksonville, FIs., .Toly 31 —A Heel rood, Fla., special to the Time* Union ays: Lite last night.

[Walartille BtaAaal.] Tbe Somerset Reporter of lost week hod a tiros g article to eapport of Gavamov Burleigh's cutdidaej for Representative ia Congress. The Reporter truly say*: ‘‘Mr. Burleigh It not only a strong candidate before the people, es haa been amply dem o astral *d time and again, bat he it a ttroag mu ard a resolute man when there ie iopirtart work to be done, aod doee not shrirk from it when it coog in the line cf his duty.’’ No cleaner man politically, t ffi.iaiiy or socially will enter the hat for the people's suffrages at next election Dan Edwin C Burleigh end his ability waa conspicuously shown ia his last message to the Legislature, which won such signal praiar from the entire press of the State of bjth parties. He comes into the route»t in a way which puzzles ibe conven tional politicians Ii tie, but so openly acd quartly that th* people will hail the method as an improvement on the means scmetimes employed. We anticipate a gallant acd lively cacvaaa, with the “hoys" pretty thidyabout the standard of Bari sigh Making Exoallaot Prcgvaaa. [Undgton New* I They do say that Guv.

GRAFTING A MUST AC BE A Ycnr.g Wemau Fuvnlabed with Hl« aoto Adonmsot by a Clover Bargoou. 1’milaw.Li'Hia, July 31 —Dr. J Ege. of Reediag. witbto three weeks has succeeded in grafurg a healthy, luxurious mustache upon pie downy upper lip of Miss L. S. Sinclair of New York. The girl ii about 22 years old. Dr. Kge has been making different ex periments in skin graftiog. He has suc ceeded in transplanting the skin of a negro to tbe arm of a white person and *1 the same covering the skinless flesh on tbe negro's person with a piece of chicken skin. While the chicken tkin did not grow feathers it bleDded with human flesh. Tbe doctor longed for new fields, and to bit delight Miss Sinclair came to Reading about three weeks ago and declared her willingness to pay well for a genuine mustache. The djetor decided it was best to have but one side of the upper lip treated at a time When the time for the operation arrived next day Mias Sinclair positively refused to take chloroform. She said she had the netvc to stand it, aod she did The entire surface waa shaved from the pit of the girl’s right arm, and a strip of akin about two and one half inches long and three quarters of an ioch wide was peeled off. Then! this strip was placed in a salt-water bath, and ope side of the upper lip was peeled in a slmiUr manner. The edge# of the »kin j mr rounding the lip wouad were loosened and the piece of cuticle from tie1 arm pit was placed on aod .he; edge of it lapped under. It was then tishtly bound, and in three days had begun D ad here. Tbe hair also began to giow, and now it is over half an inch loug and haa a healthy appearance Tbe other side of the Up was treated Monday, but Miss Sinclair decided that it would be better Uxtake chloroform during the opperalion. Dr. Kge is highlv elated over the success of hi* operation. He now declares that it is entirely possible to engraft cat skin upon the human body. POLITICAL SURPRISES May Follow tha Resignation of Col lects! Eihardt of Nsw Yoik. Nkw York, Julv.tl.—Tbe recent resign ation of Collector Erhardt seems likely to be followed by a aeries of political surprises which will set the political pot boiling in a furious manner. Close upon the heels of his resignation comes the report that Special Treasury Agent Wilbur is likely to be ap- pointsd assistant appraiser for tbe port of New York. Appraiser Cooper was seen yesterday afternoon and during an interview said: “I have not been officially notified of the appointment of Wilbur aad have certainly not been con sulted ou the matter. While I was in Washington 1 Ijeard the matter seriously talked of and would not be surprised if the appointment was made. If such a step should be taken 1 should regard it as a personal menace to myself. To appoint a roan for my assistant who has waged a personal fight with me for the past IK months, could be regarded in no other light and would, if the threat was carried ont. be equivalent to demanding the resignation which I have failed thus far failed to piece in the President's hands. As to motive which would impel the President to consider the recommendation of tnard of goBcral appraisers, who would like doubt less to have one of their friends in my de partment. 1 can say that it is not unusual for a person with aspirations for the position of Chief Magistrate of this coun try, in the effort to strengthen his cauie, to commit the very act which will be fatal to his hopes. John Sherman once interfered with politics in the state of New York by removing tbe collector and sur veyor. By so doing he lost the presidency. History has a habit of repeating itself. At the present time, just before an important state election is to take1 place, it seems to me that it is a matter fraught with much danger to attempt to make radical changes. Mr. Harrison has made a good President and his renomination has been considered as a possibility, but there has never been any real enthusiasm for him. To engender hoitility at this time, would not in my esti mation be a wise thing to do." FA8TBD TO RESTORE HEALTH Qutgley L*t Food Alona 60 Dnyn and Now bn oao Bet. Paterson, July 31 —Patrick Quigley bas been an inmate of St. Joseph s hospital for over two months, suffering from injury to his spine received while employed in the ore mines at Sterling When he was ad mitted to the hospital it was thought that his case was incurable. He could oot re tain food. Finally his taste became prac tically dead. About sixty-five days ago Quigley de cided to starve himself, and sixty days ago last 8storday he stopped eating. His case was watched by the hospital authorities. No food passed Quigley's lips, nis only nourishment was a cup of tea or glass of waser. Tbe man wasted to a mere skeleton. He was very cheerful, and raid he felt much belter than when he tried to eat. He bad an idee that if he abstained from food he would regain hi* health. Last Saturday, j oat sixty day* after be stopped eating, Quigley said be thought he would like to eat «i metbing. He craved a piece cf home-made pie. A piece waa brought to him. and ha soon ate it. 7 b; physicians who bad watched the care were present when he ate tbe pie, end were surprised when he informed them that not only had bis taste been restored, but that his stomach could retain food for the first time since be bad been injured. Quigley ate a hearty meal after he dis posed of the pie. He felt very much elated to thiik that by fae iog f’»0 days ha bad an appetite and could eat. The fast made by Quigley equals that Dr. Tamper and 8ig. »ucci made for notoriety end money. Quigley says be made his to restore bis i.ealth. Tbe hospital phtsiciaos think Quigley will toon be able to go out. Tba Roc mi ole Marriage Moffdle.

In return for the action of Congress in admitting from the Spanish islands of Cuba and Porto Rico, free of duty, sugar, molasses, coffee and hide#, the government 1 of Spain will, as a provisional measure, admit free of duty, from and after Sept. 1. 1801, into the various ports of the above islands, the following. among other articles, provided they be the product or manufac ture of tbe Uuited States and proceed di rectly from the ports of ssid states: Meats, salted, smoked or preserved in cans, jerktd beef excepted; fish and shell fish; oa’s, barley, rye and buckwheat; hay. straw for forage and bran; fruits, fresh or dried, except raisins; rosin, tar, pilch and turpentine; woods of all kinds, tocludiog masts; woods for coopersge wooden boxes, except of cedar; wagons and carts; ice Butter and cheese and boots and shoes to be admitted at a reduction of duty of 25 per cent.

Prices Ituibide to Mexico—Thu Press is Moaalid—Trouble to Quattmala 8r. Loi i.h, July 31.—Late advices from the city of Mexico to the Associated Press says that the two American papers pub lished in that city are making considerable poise over the recent letter of the sft oalled Prince Iturbide, which is now used as the banner cry by the Church party, who seem to have some con cealed candidate against Disc, and are using this ignorant boy and his backer, Verdugo, to cover up appearances. The creation of three new archbishoprics and five new bishoprics by the Pope is consid ered significant. The I edians, who form nine-tenths of the population, are very loyal to the clergy. President Disc is again well enough to attend to executive business, but he bears J traces of recent suffering. His wife wishes him to go to Europe for a rest, but his am bition keeps him here, and will for some time. The press is more restricted than ever. Governors of different states are coining here to consult with cx-President Gonzales. All this gives rise to tnsny rumors. The president is known to have had a serious misunderstanding with the minister of fin* nee. Letters from Guatemala say two attempts have been made on tbe life of President Barrillas, and that a revolution is inevitable The dearth of corn and other articles of prime necessity is causing great suffering, and the people are refusing to work unless food is supplied them.

It will result so now. The Hon. .1 H. Clarkson, who sue coeds Senator *t»uay at the bead of the executive committee of the national It* publican committee, recently resigned tha ofllre of First Assistant Postmaster General, to which he was appointed by President Harrison. Mr. Clarkson for many years was editor and proprietor of the Iowa State Register, one of the most prominent Republican papers of tha Worth west, and was one of the most conspicuous of his jmrty's leaders in that section. He is a man of undoubted ability and of great experience In polit ical affairs. Female factory Inspectors would be specially desirable in England, where minnfacturtng Is so largely^ carried on, and where, It is more than suspected, the Interests of working women and children are not sufficiently respected. YtJ more humane or just arrangement could be made than the placing of wom en on the board* of inspection and the boards of control of th»* public institu tion* of a state or nation, as experience has proved in the past, and in proving over and over again. The state or na tion like the Individual. Is wise when it get* hold of a good idea and makes the right use of It. Rev. Dr. Small, president of Colby Cnlversity. is doing a great and novel work In the Interest of education In this State He has recently had circulars published setting forth the advantages of an advanced education, and asking the assistance of those to whom the t ir oular comes to use their Influence In Inducing young people in their town to attend the academies and college- of the State. Dr. Small will have these printed circulars sent to tha leading professional men In every city and town In Maine and they will no doubt do much for the cause of education in every place that they will reach The indication* In all financial ciriles now are that nearly all the outstanding 4 l 2 i*ir cent bonds will be presented for continuance before their maturity, fl|e week* hence. Two per cent, the rate which the new bonds will bear. Is a small Inducement for the owner* of these recurltie* to leave their money In the hands of the government, but many of them are bankers, who. perhaps, fltid some little profit In the arrange ment. The credit of this government, at all event*, is higher than that of any other nation In the world, and we could undoubtedly float a $100 000,000 or $900*000,000 loan on more advantageous terms than any other country The public will have some difficulty In appreciating tire magnitude of the work which has been undertaken by the accommodation committee of the Co lumbian Exposition. For the benefit of those who like their tyiathematic* by wholesale the following figures are given The committee has used 400,000 feet of lumber in the construction of the framework of the cot* which have been placed In the camps. Over 48.000 yards or canvas have been stretched over thete frame*, and it has taken exactly a ton and a half of tacks to fasten the can vas to the frames Over 13.000 mat trentes have been manufactured, taking 05,000 yards »>f canvas and 150 tons of excelsior lias been used to itufl the mat tresses with The committee has pur chased 4000 yard* of toweling for the vaterau®. The Bmptia ol the But. I. Headeri of the Jot RNAL.Who look each week for the interesting let era of Hon. Bdward Wiggin describing the towns in Arooetobk county, which, during the laat and present summer have formed so conspicuous a feature of the paper, do tot need to tw told of the faith which we have in the wonderful resources and natural advantages of that magnificent section of our State. With these let ters appearing every week, giving UWy do historical and descriptive accounts of each town of the most mi nute and interesting nature, U is not neCea&rv that we go fnto any details of a recent tour In through some por tlons of that country, as such would ontfy he a duplication of Mr Wiggin's entertaining sketches- But as our read ers |Iavc already been given a few notes of this tour, and as the many kind friedds whom we met while In that county, and to whom we are Indebted for many favors, naturally expect seme account of our studies and examinations in justke to them a brief gemrai Ylew of what Aroostook county U, and what we saw while ihert may not be wholly without inter eat. inasmuch ma Fa publication will dia charge a plenum duty, Tbia trip wm undertaken in company with Hon J SL Dodge of the Depart ment of Africa ltwre, Waabtagt on, D. C-, and ATM the performance of a Till* long contemplated, which had one? been fully arranged about a rear ago. but waa very on will Ingly postponed at that time on account of circumstances impossible to prevent or change. Having visited almost every state in the I'nion and having made three trip* abroad to «tndy the agricul ture of England and Continental Eu rope. Mr Dodge felt a great desire to visit the county of Aroostook, so much having been said and written concerning ita extent, fertility and magnificent agri cultural possibilities The observations of an intelligent man, the -seeing with one’s own eyes," U worth a great amount of descriptive information at second hand, and it was for purposes of per sonal observation and original study of conditions that Mr. Dodge decided to undertake this visit. He was not with out facts and statistics concerning the; county and Its agriculture, but was igno rant of personal knowledge without which no true account of th* county could be written It was to supply this deficiency that called Mr. Dodge to Main*. Bis observations and views upon Arouatook county will appear in a report on N*-w England Agriculture which will be published by the Department of Ag riculture the coming fail. We arrived at Houiton by rail and inspected the farms and lnduuries of that village Next we visited the town of Linneu* and OakftoJd in the southern part of the t'.unty. Thence we went to PrSsqne Isle, visiting the towns of Lit tleton. Montlcello, Bridgewater, Blaine, Mars Hill and W»-*tfieId. Making head quarter* at Prefrjue Isle for two days we visited the town* of Easton. May« viiie, Mapleton and as tie Hill. We next visited Caribou and Fort Fairfield As origin*lly planned our trip embraced vl«lt* to Limestone, Perhsm, Washburn. Woodland, New Sweden and other towns in the northern portion of the county. Cnfortunately, however, no sooner had we reached Houiton than Mr. Dodge re ceived a telegram lUinmoning him to appear before the ''♦•nate tariff committee, to give bis vi farm last year.on a knoll, where forty years ago the ledge came so near the surface and was so sol d that it was impossible for anything to grow upon it. I remember the spot well when a boy. My fathc r left it in clearing the f irm and for years and year* it was onlv a rough ledge protrud ing from the soil It is now good plow land and gave m*’ a great yield of pota toes last §e»«on.” The 3oil of the county is much of it alluvial, rich in vegetable matter, exceedingly fertile, easily worked, friable, deep, and not much affected by droughts. -‘This year, said Hon. E E. Parkhurst, an old resi I dent of Maysville, to us, “we came the nearest to having a drought in Aroostook that we have any year since I lived here. It began to be very dry in June and the grass ami grain pinched badly but timely rains put u« all right.” It is no doubt true that this was due in Urge part to the influences caused hy the clearing away of the forests, which work is going on more and more each year The leading crops of the county are: potatoes, grass, grains. Not a field cf corn was noticed in our tour through the country. There are some orchards in the older towns. In our ride from Houiton to Presque Isle we passed many orchard* in the town* of Littleton. Montlcello and Bridgewater. At Castle Bill the orchard of Mr. J. W. Dudley was visit*d, and it was a source of great disappointment that the fine orchards of Hon. James Nutting of Per ham. the largest one in the county could not have been visited as was the original intention. The winters are long and the -now* deep snow coining la November, usually, aud remaining till into April. But once it is gone farming operations begin iu three or four days, there being uo frost In the ground and the soil drying off rapidly. Aroostook county is well watered. The river 8t. John sweeps through and around the northeru part of the State, fotmiog the boundary line for a hundred miles cr m *re and having as tributaries ia AiaofltMk cwMy Ike AUajgash wttfc iu great system of lakes, the FUh Riv er system, sag tbe Aroostoek River on tbe sooth, while on the north the boun dary river, tbe Sc. Francis, contributes its waters to help swell the mighty flood. In tbe suHIimii part of the county the lfedaxnekeag sad the Mat tawamkeag rivers are tbe principal streams. Numerous, large and^beau ttful lakes are distributed throughout tbe county in about the same relative proportion to land surface as in the counties pf Franklin, Somerset. Kenne bee and Washington. Where the land has not been cleared. It is covered by forests of spruce, pine, cedar, birch and maple with a scattering growth of beech, ash, fir and hackma tack. These forests are of immense ex tent and stretch away toward- the north and west for hundreds of miles. The surface of tbe country is undulating with a line of elevations extending in ao easterly and westerly course, and divid iog the waters of the St. John aad tbe Arooatook rivers from those In the southern part of tbe county. This line of elevated land culminates at Mars Hill, 1*00 feet In height and whose base touches the eastern boundary between Bridgewater and Easton. Fine ridges, gentle slopes, low dome-shaped hills, and extensive intervales naturally adapt this beautiful region for the perfection of agricultural operations on a scale of magnitude unknown in the older lection* of the State. IV. The St. John has but few falls in Maine, and in fact in navigable almost its entire length. Nearly all its branches, however, have fine water powers The Allagasb fall* in its course from Cham berlain lake to the St. John river 30k feet, or a little over three feet to the mile T!»is river has 28 l ikes connected with it, aggregating 81 square miles of surface, many of them already utilized as reservoirs for storage purposes. It drains a basin of 14*4 square miles, and in its course affords many tine mill priv ileges. The Fish river draius a basis of 890 square miles, containing 15 lakes aggre gating 89 square miles in area. This sys tem also affords numerous line sites for mills, one of the best in the state being near its junction with the St. John. The Aroostook river drains a basin of 2100 square miles, containing 30 lakes having a total surface of 59 square miles. Many of these can be utilized for storage purpose-. While the Aroostook river has no fall.* within the -tatc there are many places where dams are feasible a nd at Caribou a magnificent water power has thus been made. The Meduxnekeag river is supplied by Drew’sj ochrane, Bradbury and Nicker son’s lakes. Its main tributaries are the North and South Branches, the Hodg don Branch and Moose Brook. These lakes are susceptible of flowage and there are several fine mill privileges on tbe main stream and Its branches. The Mattawamkeag river system has 21 lakes with 5 square miles of surface Ic furnishes many excellent water low ers. Wells’ Water Dower of Maine ouuferates 220 line mill privileges in Aroostook county, many of the powers being sufficient for any kind of manu facturing. [To be continued.] MAIWB OOBBIP. Plover shooting is now on. Tbese birds commence flocking and moving toward tbe coast from the first to tbe fifth of August, and by the '0th are nearly all beyond our State boundaries. They are- the first birds to emigrate and remind one to ask, how’s your coal bin? Woodcock and grouse have had s good breeding season and are reported numerous. From all indications we should say that game of all kinds would b-j more plentiful this fall than for a great many years. Ground was broken Friday for the nol l.-ge gymnasium and college hall at Van Buren, and the work is now being pushed vigorously in order to have the buildiDg completed by September The gymnasium will be built of wood, 75 feet long and 35 f*et wide, and one and half stories high, and will be equipped with all the modem mprovements essential m Such a building On or shout Aug. 15, the Daboll trumpet at Libby Island light station, entrance to Mathias Bay. will be discontinued, and Thereafter the fog signal will be a steam whistle, giving blasts of four seconds' dura t on. separated by silent intervals of twenty »>x seconds.

Bangor and Aroostook Rsllioad [Industrial Journal The proposed Bangor and Aroostook Railroad is the most important railroad febeme ever brought before the people of Maine. When entirely completed it will have more miles than were ever chartered before at one time ia Maine It will open up tbe whole northeast sec tion of the Htate. It will afford access to. and make avail ble some of the finest water powers iu the I'nited States. It will penetrate a region full of pulp material, lumber, hard woed and cedar. It will pass through the finest farmirg section of New England. ft will shorten by 80 miles the distance by rail to Presque Isle and to other points in Aroostook in like proportion. It will open to sQtnmer travel a region as full of sublimity and beauty, as any region in the Doited S'ates, sod will render acces sible the finest fish ng and hunting sections of Maine. It will dispose of the Bangor Piscata quis road by lease or purchase. It will have an independent line to tide .water, and thus be able to control freight rates It will give a new era of prosperity to Bangor, if That city does its full duty in aiding the construction of tbe road It will benefit tbe whole State of Maine by settling up a new country, stimulating trade, and adding to the general stock of wealth. It aff ords a perfectly safe, legitimate and desirable investment for Maine capital, and should have the good will and hearty sup port of every patriotic citixen.

How little the fair and happy girl, who wrote these lines for tbe remembrance of s friend, thought of the terrible fate that tbe future bad in store for her! It is well that we snoot know the secrets of tomorrow could we do so we might not flod tbe enjoy ment of todsy. One of the most beautiful places in the beautiful State of New Hampshire, is Os lippee Park. It is a perfect labyrinth of natural charms upon one of the slopes of Ofsipee Mountain. No visitor to Nt-w Hampshire should miss seeing it. „Th? credit for the discovery of its many attrac tion! to tbe general public nod of patting them into shape for popular enjoyment be longs to the late bead of tbe famous Sbaw koit stocking firm of Lowell, Mass. A floe road has been built op the moun tain aid*. This terminates in a mugnt cent stretch of green lawn elop ing for a few rods down the monotnin ride. In this little field a fine large sum mer house bus been erected; also, a large convenient stable and a “lunch house. This latter building is devoted to the ser vice of picnicers. It is neatly built with a large dining room, a beautiful veranda and a number of baskets for the deposit of refuse. Tbe founder of the park saw very early that its natural beauties would soon be buried under the debris of many picnics uolers some sneb accommodations were pro vided. The only place on the grounds where lunches are permitted to be eaten. Tha park extendi over quite aa extent of the j mountain side aud was one of the favorite resorts of tbe poet Whittier daring bis manner sojourn* at Center Haxbor. Starting in with the little “Crow’s nest” structure on the summit from whose seats one of the finest views in New England may be obtained including Luke Winnipiseogee ith its .100 islands, and n large number o* mountain ranges. From here beautifulffoot paths lead to the “falls'' and the “pool', then comes a walk by the side of a beautiful mountain stream between two high bank* hose trees almost interlap their branches Here a constantly changing succession of magnificent view s delights tne eye. Beautiful ’priogs of water quench tbe thirst. The various foot paths are said to extend five miles in length; but they seem to be much shorter than that to the delighted visitor, who soon finds himself back again at tbe lunch house, the afternoon gone, and his teams in readiness for home. A steamer ride upon Lake Winnipesogee iffords some of Uw most delightful viewa to be found in New England, and at the prearnt time, travel ia brisk upon its wat ers. The Wiers ia alive with summer visitors as are also Center Harbor and other resorts along its shores. The numerous islands afford charming retreats for merry parties of campers. I recently encountered one of three on the steamer Mt. Washing ton. They were a merry group of school boys and bad evidently enjoyed their ialand life hugely. Some of them were aupplied with base ball paraphenalia and all of them looked athletic. Evidently all of them bad a profound admiration for anything in the line of “sport.” They gathered on the bow of the steamer and discussed the relative merits of various athletic lights. They soon attracted the attention of a couple of wags who were seated in front of the rilot house on the upper deck. One of item was a large finely built fellow—though perhaps a trifle too corpulent to be rus pected of great physical'agility. His com panion was not so mnscular but had a pleas ant face and was evidently a “good fellow. The two watched the boys with evident amusement and interest. They held a whispered consultation after which the smaller of the two arose and went down stairs to the lower deck sauntering carelessly up to tbe group of boys he soon joined in iheir conversation and won their good graces. Suddenly pointing to tbe man on the upper deck he inquired “Dk» r. might well have finished nightmares for a thousand dreams- Wh-n the subdued and awe stricken group left the boat at Alton Bay. lb*j gtihered at tbe waters e^g** to get a last lock at tb* ir hero as he f»d»d from sight in the d>rvcti >n of Center Harbor, and so inter.* was tbeir gax o that tb* y fat ltd to note he sympa tbetic grin of tbe'title group of pe«sr gers by tbe pilot house who had enjoy*-! >he com*dy—-grins that became vocal when “John L aud bis friend returned their former pUc»* Owe of the n*o*t beautirul little village* in Meir e is Buck field.

A BRUTAL ASSAULT Mads Upon John War# by Haary Tboendlfeo—Ware's Wrist Broken Last night there was a largo crowd col lected on the earner of Bowman and Wil liams streets on the Hast side. Amriig the crowd was John Ware, who was peacefullr etching tfie galloping horses. At about half-past 7, two men pushed their way through the crowd to where Ware was standing. One walked up behind ths unsuspecting man and dealt him a fearful blow on ths beck of tbe head. Ware dropped to the ground,whereupon his assail ant who waa identified as Henry H Thorn dike of this aity, kicked him brutally By this time the crowd had realised what was going on end made for tbe scene of the assault. The two men at once broke their way through and escaped. Officer Bruce found upon hie arrival, a few minutes later that Ware had received quite serious in juries. On- wrist had been broken his head was cut and he had been injured in ternally. fie was taken to I)r. Martin's office. Investigation proves this to have been a premeditated attack. Through testimony recently given by Ware, Thorndike was sent to jail for liquor selling. He swore then that he would get even with Ware. Last night was his first opportunity and he took prompt advantage of It, and has now departed to peris unknown, nis partner s name has not been ascertained by tbe police. He seemed to be a stranger. Thorndike Arrested Tbe officers were hunting for the missing man all the evening. At b 210 o'clock he was arrested by Deputy Marshal McKen aey at lbs corner of Grove and State streets on an electric car. The bearing will be held tomorrow morning Much praise is given the local force for their prompt work in running down Thorndike. 8TATB HOUBB ROTES ^State Superintendent of common schools j Prof. N A Luce, is now making arrange ments for the teachers’ institutes and j connty educational associations to be held throughout tbe Htate tin com autum i As an aid in their work, M r.

In Aroostook Farm He p. The terrible tragedy at Hanover teaches this lesson, that farmers can not afford to employ workmen of whose antecedents go thing is known or can be learned? The hired juan upon the farm is not now as a rule the character he was forty years ago, when he was generally a resident of the neighborhood, who stood on a level with his employer, was often ids associate and adviser, as well as co-worker; who sat at the family table occupied the family pew In church, and took a lively and un$e!ti«h Interest hi everything pertaining to the farm and occupants; but he is even now on the ordinary farm necessarily one of the household brought into da»l*r con tact with all its members amt fa m ia» with all their habits and most of their business, and it is far from noon'll that he is intniligmS aud able and willing to earn his wages The tramp limy bn an holiest man. but the man \rbo will give no account of hlmeplf is certainly not a person to be taken into a respectable farmer's family. Indeed.ft may be said that a tramp wno, like Almy. is intelli gent educated aud capable, i- invariably a scoundr* J, for if bn were not he would not be obliged to enk woik away from home, and it may be laid down as a rule, which it hardly needs the awful homicide at Hanover to emphasize, that land had better go until led aud mops un harvested until fanners can secure as sistants who are known nob to be out laws Ami this suggest® that there is no more ditlieult problem connected with eastern agriculture than this one of farm labor. As we have said, the old fashioned, honest, industr-ous. lntHli gent, faithful “hired man” is ro longer to be found, and there is no one to fake his plane. Labor saving machinery has done something towards tiling ids place, and this is all that saws the agri cultural Industry from complete rum, but there is still much to be done on a farm that must be accomplished by brain and muscle, and whenever a farim r finds himself in a position where he and his family cannot supply those as they are needed he is iu a sore strait, and it i* natural nnough that he should accept the first man that oilers, though he be one whom under ordinary circum stances he would no more admit to his house foe a long stay than he would a wild bent. the reimdy we cannot point out, but it is obvious that the one thing no farmer ca if a fiord is to harbor for weeks aud months without any knowledge of bis history or character a perfect stranger, who may prove to be a devil, like the one whb murdered Chris tie Warden.—Mirror and Farmer.
