The imperative need of the protection afforded by Life Insurance is made man ifest every day. Of late, the grim spec tre Death has stalked abroad in its most hideous forms: acoidents of the most ter rible character—some resulting from'nat ural forces, others from the carelessness of man—have been recorded day by day. Immunity has been accorded to none; neither age, youth nor status has claimed exemption—the old and the young, the tteh and the poor, have alike fallen be fore the soythe of Death’s avenging nngeL It is this uncertainty of life—the converse of death’s certainty—that caus es those who reflect to avail themselves of the beneficence of Life Insurance. When death in its terrible swiftness en ters a household, the pangs of the suffer ing bereaved are sufficiently acute with out being added to by any prospective view of penury and want. Life Insurance is a duty; one of the most sacred attaching to any bread-win ner, and a terrible responsibility rests upon the shoulders of those who are in any way neglectful in this connection. INSURANCE PROTECTION CONSE QUENT UPON DEATH BY DISEASE OR ACCIDENT IS ALONE SECURED BY POLICIES OF LIFE INSURANCE. Your home company—the Union Mu tual—issues policies than which none are more liberal; they are also of the most varied oharaoter, with premiums as low as it Is possible to make them con sistent with the absolute security they afford.

Charles Blenn Died Bast July While Coming From a Sunday Visit to a Camp on the Pond—Evidences of a Drunken Bow Aroused Suspicions Then—Now Edgar Wakefield and Geo. Silver Have Been Arrested for Man slaughter. Gardiner, Maine/September 10.—Great excitement was created in this city last night when it became known that the grand jjiry had found an indictment against Edgar C. Wakefield and George Silver for manslaughter. It will be re membered that Charles Blenn met his death on Sunday, July 23, on Horse Shoe "Prvnd kIy mil as rrnm this Htv. under very suspicious circumstances. At that time Wakefield and Silver wete detained by order of Judge Larrabee, and the coroner’s jury failng to find evidence enough to hold them they were released. The jury’s verdict was that Blenn came to his death by drowning, but as to how he got into the water they were unable to determine. Blenn’s relatives not be ing satisfied with this verdict engaged Detective D.W.Sullivan of Boston to un ravel the mystery. Sullivan arrived here about a week ago, and the result of his work is shown by the fact that the grand jury found an indictment against the two men for manslaughter. Last night Detective Sullivan assisted by State Detective Ira M. True of Hallowell arrested Silver and placed him in jail. Wakefield, although out of town, will, it is thought, be apprehended by Monday. On the 33d of last July, Wakefield and Siver were spending the day, Sunday, at Wakefield’s camp on Horse Shoe Pond. Charles Blenn was employed as a farm hand by Mr. Fred Babcock, living near the camp. At about 1 p. m., Blenn started from Babcock’s to visit Wakefield and Silver, with whom he was ac quainted. He was seen by the Babcock family to take a small float, paddle it across stream, land and disappear into the camp. What happened there can only be surmised. Parties living in the vicinity heard considerable noise coming from the camp. It is known that there was some liquor in the camp, of which, it is supposed all partook freely. It is also admitted that Blenn and Wakefield played cards and Blenn is said to have been the winner. From the appearance of the camp, it is evident that a row ensued. When'the camp was first entered by City Marshal Drake of this city there were unmistakable signs of a struggle, a chair being broken -and things turned upside down generally. It is claimed that Wake field went up stairs to bed after he was through playing cards, Silver claiming that he started to set Blenn and another man across the stream in the float. At about 4 o’clock, Silver appeared at the house of Mr. Potter near by, all wet and considerably excited. He appeared to be intoxicated. He said that two men whom he was setting across the stream from the camp were drowned; that when about half way across, Blenn stood up and commenced to rock the boat and he (Silver) told him to sit down or he would tip the boat over, and that Blenn, not doing as requested, the boat was suddenly upset, throwing all three into the water. Silver said that as soon as he came up he struck for the shore about thirty yards off, and arriving there looked round for the others, but could see nothing but the overturned boat, bilver Jaad a cut on ms head and said he supposed he received it from the rail of the boat when he went over. Harry Dunn, who was at Mr. Pot ter’s, went to the pond with Silver and saw the boat bottom up drifting down stream. They immediately took another boat and searched for the other two men but could not find them. Wakefield and Silver returned to town late Saturday night but did not notify the authorities until Monday morning, when Silver notified City Marshal Drake, who imme diately started for the scene of the acci dent with a searching party. They grap pled for the bodies, and also used dynamite, but did not succeed in finding them until Wednesday morning when Blenn’s body was found floating face up wards opposite the camp near the east shore of the pond, 245 yards from Where Silver claimed the boat was upset. Coroner Kilbreth of Hallowell immedi ately summoned a jury and accompanied by doctors repaired to the place where the body was found. The coroner took the body from the water and discovered that it was covered with bruises, especial ly on the head and face. The doctors made an examination and found sufficient water in the lungs to cause death by drowning. The bruises on the head and face excited a suspicion of foul play, Wakefield and Silver being held by order of the judge, until after the coroner’s in quest, at which the evidence was not sufficient to hold them and they were re leased. The people here are very anxious as to the outcome of the case, not know ing the nature of the evidence the prose cution have obtained. WAKEFIELD ARRESTED. He Had Gone to Massachusetts to Escape an Indictment for Liquor Sellidg. Springfield, Mass., September 10.— Edward C. Wakefield of West Gardiner, Maine, was' arrested today at the home of his brother-in-law. The arrest was made on strength of a telegram from State Detective True of Hallowell, Maine. Wakefield says he came to this city immediately after his release from custody the last of July. Two weeks ago he returned to Gardiner but came bach to Springfield because he heard the grand jury was likely to proceed against him for liquor selling. He denies any know ledge of how Blenn met his death. Ht says he went to bed and he next learned that Blenn was dead. He will be taken to Maine tomorrow. the Upham Family. [Special to the Press.] Rockland, September 9.—The annual reunion of the Upham family was held at Oakland today, the attendance being a little over 100. The day was so verj pleasantly passed on the seashore and among the groves that it was unanimous ly voted to meet there again the last Saturday of August, 1894.

Washington, September 9.—In the Sen ate today, the resolution in reference to the refusal of the national hanks of New York, Philadelphia and Boston, to pay the checks ;of depositors in currency, which was offered yesterday by Mr. Feffer of Kansas, came up and its author addressed the Senate on the subject. The morning hour expired and, under the rules, the resolution went to the calendar, from which it can only be taken by a motion and a majority vote. The hill to repeal the purchasing clause of the Sherman act was then laid before the Senate and Mr. Teller of Colorado, spoke in oppositon. In the course of his remarks Mi1. Teller read a Washington despatch to a New York paper stating that negotiations for the surrender of the silver Democrats in the Senate were at an end, that the administration in sisted no unconditional surrender and Sonofnp V«st was t/hfi anorriesfc man against the administration that could be found and had threatened to join in dealyingjaction. Mr. Vest thereupon said: “If there is any ultimatum coming from the Presi dent of the United States it is not known to myself nor to any of my associates. However, much we may differ from the President none of us have ever come to the degrading conclusion that he will send a message to United States Senators seeking to control their action.” Most of Mr. Teller’s speech was devoted to a denunciation of the newspaper press of the country, especially the metropoli tan part of it for its alleged impudence and its mendacity. He treated President Cleveland’s telegram to Mr. Wilson of West Virginia, congratulating him and his associates on the passage of the repeal bill by the House, as an instance of newspaper falsehood and claimed, with pretended indignation, that the President of the United States could never be guilty of such a gross breach.of propriety. A Itittle Stronger at the White House. Washington, September 9.—Mrs. Cleve land gave birth to a female child at 2 p. m.today. As soon as the announcement was made, the members of the Cabinet and their wives called to congratulate the President and leave cards for Mrs. Cleveland. Mr.Olney happened to be at the White House when the President came back to his office from the sick room shortly after 2 o’clock and was the first member of the official family to ten der his good wishes. Bunches of roses from intimate friends soon began to arrive. There was a general air of sup pressed excitement about the employes of the mansion. Telegrams of congratula tions have been received from.all parts of the country. Washington, September 10.—The weather was misty and muggy today and the Sunday quiet about the White House was even more intense than usual. Callers to enquire after the health of Mrs. Cleveland and the baby were in formed that mother and daughter were doing well. Mrs. Perrin, Mrs. Cleve land’s mother, has arrived. Maine Postmasters Appointed. Washington, September 9.—These Maine postmasters were appointed today: Cyrus J.Perley, East Gray, vice Alvin H.

Perhaps Gave the Victory to Vigilant in Saturday’s Race. New York, Sept.9.—The second of the trial races to select a defender for the America’s cup was sailed today. All four cup defenders started and although it looked at one time as if the Jubilee would win, the Vigilant came in first with over four minutes to spare. As the boats bore down on the first turn the Jubilee was in the best position. A mis take on the part of the Jubilee’s skipper, however, lost her the lead, and perhaps the race. He gave the mark a wider berth than he should have done. After the Jubilee was standing for the turn close hauled on the port tack, the Vigi lant approached with her starboard tacks aboard. The Jubilee tried to cross her bows, but finding it impossible, was forced to go again on the starboard ,tack and allow the Vigilant to pass. The Pilgrim came so close to the stern of the Vigilant that she forced the Jubilee to remain on the starboard tack until she also had rounded the mark. This gave the Jubilee third place. The Colonia following a close fourth. In the run home the Vigilant increased her lead finishing 5 minutes 9 seconds ahead of the Jubilee. The corrected time gave the Vigilant me race by 4 32. As follows: Name CM Elapsed Corrected h m s li m s Vigilant...4 04 31 4 04 31 Colonia.4 17 09 4 16 66 Jubilee.4 09 40 4 09 03 Pilgrim.4 14 16 4 13 40 Bobbery on the Grand Trank. Bufflo, New York, September 9.—The Grand Trunk express train from Chicago, which was due in Buffalo yesterday morning at 9 o’clock, was robbed by sneak thieves between Detroit and Sus pension Bridge, and the passengers in tour sleeping cars were cleaned out. The triain was extra heavy and full to over flowing with World’s Fair tourists. Shortly!before the train reached Sus pension Bridge, one of the early risers among the passengers discovered that he had been robbed and raised a cry of thief. Every one in the car at once started, rummaging through his clothes, and in a tew moments the discovery was made that all the berths had been robbed of all the valuables they con tained. Watches, scarf pins, studs and pocketbooks and money—everything was gone. Every nook and cranny in all the oars were looked into, but nothing was found. Then the porters were all called into the state room and stripped to the skin. None of the stolen property was found and the train proceeded after being delayed uve hours. TO GO OR SOT TO GO. That Is the QneSti m Troubling John Chinaman Just Now. ORDERS SENT FROM WASHINGTON JREAD GO. That is Prov.ded there is Money to Buy John's Tioket—The Administration and the Geary Law—Chang Improves on Geary—Exclusion too Slow for Him— He would Kill off Foreigners in ftie Flowery Kingdom. Washington, Sept. 9.—The question whether or not the administration lias called a halt in the matter of enforcing the Geary law and is desirouB of the pas sage of the Everett bill, introduced in the House yesterday to extend the time for registration until September 7 of nexi year, and at the same time modifying the stringency of the conditions imposed by the Geary bill, is exciting much at tention. Attorneys for the Chinese Le gation in Washington having heard re ports that additional instructions for the enforcement of the law were being pre uftred At t nf, Trp»a.siirv Hflnar+Tnfiiit mn.do inquiries there regarding them. Subse quently one of the attorneys stated that they had been informed that no orders on the subject had been given out other than those promulgated at the time the exclusion was declared to be constitu tional by the Supreme court. The attor ney further stated that he expected no change in the situation before the 13th inst., the date of the sailing of the first steamer for Chins from San Francisco upon which Chinese ordered to be de ported could leave the country. It is be lieved an effort will be made to Becure a stay of execution of the judgment of Judge Boss’s oourt in the case of these Chinamen. WANTS THE ENGLISH KILLED. The Fanatical Chang Said To Be Address ing the Throne. London, September 9.—The Standard’s correspondent at Shanghai telegraphs: “Viceroy Chang, notorious for his hatred of foreigners and for encouraging natives in the barbarous treatment of Europeans, is reported to have addressed a petition to the throne, openly advocating the ex termination of foreigners in China, es pecially the English, as necessary in order to prevent the eventual partition of China among European powers. The hostility to foreigners in the provinces is una bated.” THIS SEEMS DEFINITE ENOUGH. United States Marshal Ordered to Send Away Blacklisted Celestials. Los-Angeles, Cal., September 10.—The Attorney General of the United States has sent a telegram to United States Marshal Card, instructing him to enforce the Geary act until he is informed there are no more available funds for that pur nose.

Markham has sent a letter to Secretary Gresham, saying that if the Geary law is not enforced an outbreak against the Chinese may.’occur in California at any moment. He promises to do all in his power to keep the peace, but says he will not be responsible if the government persists in not enforcing the law. MANUFACTURERS CONFIDENT.

Rockland, September 9.—Steam yacht Intrepid, which has been cruising iu the waters of Penobscot Bay the past week, ran onto the rocky ledge at the southeast entrance to Eggemoggin Reach yester day. She was gotten off at high water last night, and arrived here this after noon in tow of the tug Bismarck of Ban gor. It is understood that the cause of the accident was the buoy being out of position. The yacht was going at a high rate of speed when she struck, and when seen by passing steamers her bows were high out of water. The accident was observed from Brooklin, and the steamer H. B. Hamlin of that port was sent to the yacht’s assistance. There was considerable wind and rain, but the Hamlin finally succeeded in pulling the Intrepid off and towed her into Brooklin. She is now lying off the south marine railway here with her pumps working to keep her free. Heavy pieces of canvas cover her bows as far aft as the foremast It will be necessary to have her out on the marine railway to ascertain the full i_. _ p i_ _ _3 —ill towed to Portland where repairs will be made. The yacht Intrepid was launched this year, and is the property of Lloyd Phoe nix of New York. She is built for sail ing as well as steaming, and is consid ered the finest three-masted yacht in the country. Her great strength alone saved her from becoming a total wreck on the rocks. Fishermen report several acci dents as having occurred at this point, and it is the opinion of sailing men that the buoy should be looked after. TO TRY THE CASTINE.

UNDER THE JAIL FLOOR. _ That Skeleton in the National Museum is Not Guiteau’g. Washington, Sept. 5.—The general im pression that the skeleton of Guiteau, Garfield’s assassin is on exhibition in the medical musuem has been removed by the statement of Deputy Warden Russ of the district jail. Russ says it was feared that if the body was placed in an ordinary cemetery it would be stolen and steps were taken to prevent this. Before the execution Guiteau was induced to bequkath the body to Rev. Dr. Hicks! who was to despose of it £as he saw fit. Aster the execution it was decided to bury it in jail. On the Saturday morn ing following the execution Ross took a couple of “trustys” to the little laundry room of the jail and had them remove the flooring and dig a grave. The body was then brought from the chapel and Dr. Hicks conducted the funeral services. It was buried beneath the floor and is still there. ONLY SERFS WOULD ACCEPT IT. National League Officers on Gladstone and His Home Buie Bill, New York, September 10.—The execu tive committee of the Irish National League of America has issued a manifes to to Irishmen and friends of Ireland denouncing the home rule bill submitted to the House of Commons as practically worthless and declaring that the imposi tion of the mutilated skeleton just re jected by the House of Lords would have been an outrage and the serfs who would accept it with thanks would merit the scorn of the nation. The manifesto de clares that no more pernicious influence has been at work among the Irish pprmlp r.bn.n the influence of Mi*, dad stone in recent years. It appears to the committee that the time has come when the Irish race the world over should be enlisted in one gigantic movement for the liberation of Ireland. It has power to shake the chains from the mother land if it only has the will. A great conven tion of Irishmen from all countries is re commended to formulate a plan for united action.

Tills Government Asked To Interfere— The Matter Discussed at a Cabinet Meeting—Scarcity of Water the Re markable Pretext for an Anarchist Riot in Spain—Opposition to Satolli To Be Investigated at the Vatican,!,
London, September 10.—The Brazilian legation has oommunicated to the press a telegram from Rio Janeiro, dated Sep tember 9, which says: “The city is per fectly tranquil and the streets present their usual busy aspect. Theatres and other places of publio resort are open. The government is strong and will re press revolt. Congress has voted in fa vor of a state of siege, which, however, the government hopes it will not be ne cessary to establish. The insurgents at tempted to land at various points, but everywhere were energetically repulsed. They now appear disheartened. Melott called upon the fort at Santa Cruz to join the revolt, but met with a decided refus al. The insurgent squadron is dispersed over the bay and has no means of action. It is held in check by the forts aDd can not get to sea. Naval officershaving been summoned to report at headquar ters it was discovered that only 28 aboard the insurgent vessels had joined the re volt. The officers ashore support the government. All the military officers have united and will aid the government whenever necessary. Mercantile and banking business continues regularly.” GREEDY FRANCE. Liberia Does Not Want to Share the Fate of Slam. Pj^tsburg, Pa., September lo.—Alfred Benedict King, World’s Fair commis sioner from Liberia, passed through the city last evening, having just left Wash ington. The commissioner said: “Libe ria has a grievance and a very serious one. France is not only encroaching upon our territory, but has actually ab sorbed considerable of it. We are an in dependent government but not strong enough to cope with so powerful a nation as France. IwasinstructedtovisitWash ington and confer with the President and Secretary of State respecting assistance. The cabinet held a meeting Thursday concerning the Liberian matter but I am not at liberty to divulge the result. I think, though, I can consistently state that the United States will espouse our cause and ask the French to keep their hands off and retire from the territory they have taken from us.” SPAIN’S WAVE OF ANARCHISM. It Broke Over Santander Sunday and Washed Away the Town Furniture, Madrid, September 10.—A riot broke out in Santander, Sunday, during a fire in a populon quarter. The mob forcibly entered the municipal buildings and after destroying the furniture, threw everything out of the windows. The resi dences of the mayor and leading council lor were treated in the same way. The mob was finally dispersed by troops. The riot was ostensibly caused by the de ficiency of water, but was really only another evidence of the wave of anar chism passing over Spain. The Opposition to the Ablegate. London, September 10.—The United Press correspondent in Borne telegraphs that the Vatican is about to open an in quiry of the most searching character into the latest opposition to Mgr.

In 1891 and also 1892, the Maine His torical Society had two perfect Septem ber days for its annual field day excur sions. It was equally favored on Friday and Saturday of last week, when the so ciety visited Kittery Point and Ports mouth. Two more beautiful September days could not have been selected, and the excursion in every way was a most delightful one. Following were the members of the party: Mr. and Mrs. James P. Baxter. Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Bryant, Kev. Dr. II. S. Burrase. Nathan Goold. George D. Hand. George F. Emery. M. F. King. Rev. E. C. Cummings. Air. and Mrs. Dana W. Fellows. Mr. D. Goodhue. All of Portland.

The party left Portland at 9 o’clock Friday morning, and after a brief tarry ing at Kittery Junction, Kittery Point was reached about 11.30. M. A. Safford, Esq., of Kittery met the party at Kittery Junction, and acted as guide during the stay at Kittery. The headquarters of the society were at the Champernowne, a summer hotel, charmingly situated on the Piscataqua, opposite Newcastle, and facing the entrance to the harbor, with the Isles of Shoals on the edge of the horizon. The courteous proprietor, Mr. Horace Mitchell, had made all possible arrangements for the comfort of his guests. On the way to the hotel, Mr. Safford called attention to the site of the house built by Sir William Pepperell for his son Andrew. The party also visited the site of Peppered’s fort, which com manded the entrance tp the river, the site of the present fort, Fort McClary. After dinner the visitors, under the conduct of Mr. Safford, were taken to .v -l v tt i_Mz. t_o* Trrn kilo Cpt/l&anA. .UVSUOVy l/UHl/ KSJ K/*l M liam Pepperell for his daughter; also the Lady Pepperell house, the Gerrish house the old parsonage, and the house built by the first William Pepperell and after ward occupied by his son, Sir William Pepperell; also the Pepperell tomb. These houses, with their relics of colo nial days could not but have a very great interest for the members of the Histori cal Society, and a most delightful after noon was spent in examining the various treasures in them that have come down to us from colonial times. Late in the afternoon, a portion of the company took a ride to jChampernowne’s Island, where they visited the old cemetery where Champernowne was buried; while others of the party crossed the river to Newcastle or remained at the Champer nowne. In the evening a meeting was held in the parlor of the hotel. Hon. James P. Baxter, president of the Historical So ciety, presided, and in his opening re marks called attention to some of the interesting historical facts connected with the place. [Mr. Baxter’s remarks will be published in full tomorrow. Mr. H. W. Bryant,' secretary of the Historical Society, presented to the so ciety in the name of DR Fogg of South Boston, Mass., an ancient deed or parch ment, the witnesses to which were noted men in Maine’s history—Maverick, the king’s commissioner; Chapernowne, whose name is identified with Kittery; Garde, the mayor of Gorgiana. Rev. Mr. Emmons, pastor of the Con gregational church at Kittery Point who at the parsonage during the afternoon had exhibited the ancient communion service belonging to the church, a part of which was the gift of Sir William Pep perell, gave a very interesting account of the early history of the church, which dates from the beginning of the eigh teenth century. There had been earlier preaching at Kittery, and he referred to some of the facts connected with his ear lier history. Rev. Dr. Burrage, of Portland, said that it was an interesting fact that the Baptist church organized at Kittery in 1682, was soon after transferred to South Carolina, where it became the First Baptist church in Charleston, and the first of all the Baptist churches in the South. Its pastor was William Screv en. When he came to Kittery is not known. He is first mentioned in a land conveyance dated Nov. 15, 1673. July 23, 1674, he married Bridget Cutts, a daughter of Robert Cutts, one of the three brothers so prominent among the early settlers at theimouth of the Pis cataqua. Screven was not a Baptist when he came to Kittery, but June 21, 1681, with Humphrey Churchwood of Kittery, united with the Baptist church in Boston by baptism. Churchwood, in writing to his Baptist brethren in Boston Jan. 3, 1682, reveals the fact that others in Kittery had become Baptists. Dr, Bum-sera cTliiKi'foH on orifrinal 1 After writ ten by Cliuvchwood to one of the mem bers of the, Baptist church in Bo iton con cerning Baptist affairs at Kittery. The Baptists at Kittery soon desired that Mr. Screvenbe ordained and a church or ganized. Mr. Screven who went to Bos ton and received a license to preach, commenced to hold religious services. But he was soon summoned to appear before the magistrate and was required to give a bond of one hundred pounds to appear at the next court of pleas or go to jail He went to jail, and April 12, 1862, he was brought before the court at York, where he was fined ten pounds and forbidden to hold further religious services. He was also directed to ob serve the public worship of God at the Parish church or suffer the penalties which the law imposed. Mr. Screvenseems to have paid no heed to this order, and June 28, 1682, his case was brought before a general assembly of the province held at York, and he was convicted of contempt of his majesty’s authority in refusing to submit to the direction of the court. He was offered his liberty and the privilege of returning to his family, however, if he would cease preaching and amend for the future. On his refusal it was ordered that he should stand committed until the judgment of the court wan Ifc ia osasiMe. however, that the judgment was not car ried into effect, for the|record closes with these words: “After which said Screven, coming into court, did in the presence of said court and president, promise and engage to depart out of this province within a very short time.” Evidently Screven and his associates had now come to the conclusion that if they could not have at Kittery freedom to worship God according to the dictates of their consciences, they would seek it elsewhere. But they desired to have a church organized first, and the church at Boston sent its pastor, Rev. Isaac Hull, and two of its members to Kittery, for this purpose, September 25, 1682. Mr. Screven was ordained and thejcliurch or ganized. Mr. Screven and his associates did not leave Kittery, however, till the summer of 1684. They then went to South Carolina and located on Cooper River, near Charleston. Later the church was removed to Charleston and became the first Baptist church there. Mr. Scre ven died October 10,11713, at the comple tion of his 84th year, and his descendants at the present time are among the most prominent citizens in South Carolina and Georgia. Rev. E. C. Cummings, in a very felicit ous address, referred to the many evi dences, everywhere discernable at Kit tery, of the English spirit so prevalent in ljjc Citi iy uioiuiy ui iuu Mr. Hackett of Portsmouth referred to the high character of the work ddne by the Maiue Historical Society, and called attention to many points of historical in terest in and around Portsmouth. Paymaster Joseph Foster of the U. S. Xavy, called attention to the fact that James Russell Lowell was a descendant of the Robert Cutts, who was the father of Mrs. Screven. He was a son of Rev. Charles and Harriet (Spence) Loweli, grandson of Keith and Mary (Traill) Spence of Portsmouth, great grandson of Robert and Mary (Whipple) Tiaill, also of Portsmouth; great-great-grandson of Capt. William Whipple, senior, and Mary (Cutts) Whipple ;|great-great-great grandson of Robert ana Dorcas (Ham mond) Cutts, 2d, and great-great-great great-graudson of Robert and Mary (Hall) Cutts, whose children were Richard, Robert, Mary, Bridget, Sarah and Eliza beth. Mr. Saffoid compared the Kittery of the earlier days, including its ware houses and business activity, with the Kittery of the present time, and added many very interesting historical facts connected with the place. The thanks of the society were ex tended to Dr. Fogg for his valuable gift, and also to Mr. Safford for the admirable arrangements he had maae for the field day excursion. Saturday morning, after breakfast at the Champernowne, the )>arty found a steamer in waiting at the wharf opposite the hotel, and were taken up the Piscata qua, and were- shown many interesting historical localities on either side of the river. On the return the members of the par ty were shown objects of historical in terest in Portsmouth. At St. John’s Episcopal church, the rector, the Rev. Mr. Hovey, met the party. The first church built upon this site was called Queen’s chapel, after Queen Caroline. The church has a copy of the celebrated Vinegar Bible, so called because in it the parable of the vineyard is called by a ty pographical error the parable of the vin egar. The old prayer book was shown, where the prayer for the king was cov ered over by the prayer for the President of the United States, which was substi tuted after the Revolution. At the chapel the rector showed the commu nion set presented to the church by Queen Caroline. The Warner house is the oldest brick house in Portsmouth, built in 1718-23 by Captain Macpheadris, a rich merchant and a member of the king’s council. Here were exhibited manv articles of el egant furniture, and also of clothing that had graced many a court occasion in co lonial times. The Governor Langdon house also was visited, and later the Athenaeum with its treasures of old books, etc. After dinner the party strolled into the old cemetery, near the station, and on the arrival of the train took the cars for Portland. Rarely has the Maine Historical Socie ty had a more delightful or profitable field day excursion. STATE TOPICS OF INTEREST. Tourtilotte’s ridge in Hancock county is excited over the finding of the decom posed body of Alex Terrio in the woods there. The body was discovered by a 14-year- old boy. 4t was in a horrible condition. The'skull was fractured, and shows signs of having been struck with ajheavy blunt instrument. Terrio worked in May for John Baker in township 40. He had trouble with a fellow workman and the latter threatened to kill Terrio. Terrio left the camp and in a short time the other left. Neither has been seen alive since. Terrio’s body was buried. He was a resident of the Ridge. Eugene French of West Auhurn, aged 33, ended his life on Friday by taking a dose of laudanum and sugar of lead. It was a case of deliberate suicide, and despondency was the cause. Albert White, a well-known citizen of Randolph, committed suicide early Sat urday morning by tying a rock weighing twenty-five pounds round his neck with a rope and jumping overboard from the wharf into the Kennebec river. He is believed to have been insane. The town of Norway has been sued by A.L.Hill for damages, on account of in juries received by his daughter while driving over an alleged defective high way. The damage claimed in the writ is $1000. The officers of the town claim that there is no liability on the part of the town. Some of the heirs of the late Perley Washburn of Dover are contesting this wil. Mr. Washburn is the man who gave $4000 to erect soldiers’ monuments in Foxcroft and Abbott, against the wishes of his relatives.__ en( -.~ii suimera. The Prince of Montenegro says that soldiers ought not only to be fighters, but workers, and he therefore decrees tUat. cvfiw nrivat.fi must plant 200 vines. every general 20 olive trees, every chef de batallion 10, every lieutenant 5 and every corporal 1. The prince reckons that by this means the country will be enriched next spring by 4,000,000 vines and 50,000 olive trees. _ __ __ State of Ohio, City of Toledo, j sg Lucas County. J Frank .J.

AN ELOQUENT TRIO. Congressmen Bryan of Nebraska, Pence of Colorado and Dr. Everett. [Special Correspondence.! Washington, Sept. 7.—The young men of the house are coming forward. The days when a man must have been in congress at least one term before he opened his mouth, save at roll call, are fading into tradition. The leader of the younger set is easily Mr. Bryan of Ne braska. lie is serving only his second term in congress, but never rises to speak without getting an appreciative hearing and having the house fill rapidly from cloakrooms and corridors. Save Mr. Bland, he is the sole free coinage speaker who really commanded the un divided attention of the house in the re cent debate. His rise has been that of the rocket, hut his fall is unlikely to be that of the stick, for to aptness and elo quence he joins much of solidity. William Jennings Bryan is only 12 years out of a classical college, and his shingle as an attorney had Deen Hanging out in Lincoln, Neb., only three years when the tidal wave following the Reed congress swept him from Lincoln across the turbid Missouri to the hall of repre sentatives in Washington. In 1890, he suddenly shot forward as the Democratic congressional nominee, leading to victory what was regarded as a forlorn hope. It was a fortuitous cir cumstance which sent him here, for he probably would not have gained the nomination had the old timers thought a Democrat could win. Chance again aided him, and throwing his whole for tunes with Mr. Springer in the speaker ship fight that gentleman landed the young Nebraskan on the ways and means committee when he was made chairman. His hold on his district is described by men who have traveled through it as re markable. As a stumper he has few equals in the west, and a pleasant per sonality, considerable magnetism and abundant good humor has aided him in building a personal following. The only one of the silver men from silver mining states who took any con spicuous part in the silver fight in the house was Lafe Pence, from the First or Denver district of Colorado, the newness of these silver state members to congress generally operating to keep them in the background. Mr. Pence, though he had been sworn in but a few days before, took the floor in the white metal’s be half. His speech was exceedingly well received by the house and was commend ed as a moderate, well chosen argument, presenting the Colorado side of the sil ver question without any of the blood to-the-bridles characteristics of the utter ances of Colorado’s governor. Mr. Pence has passed only 35 mile stones in life. By birth he is a Hoosier, and his first taste of politics he got in that hotbed of political strife when he was a lad struggling for class and soci ety honors in the college at Hanover, Ind., from which he was graduated in 1877. In college, if not successful in mathematics, he was in oratory and de bating, beginning even then to train himself for the rostrum and the stump. There were plenty of lawyers and not an overplus of clients in Indiana, and Horace Greeley’s advice being taken Mr. Pence landed in Wichita, Kan., and thence in Rico, in the San Juan section of Colorado, a colony of Kansans accom vtnntrinrr VlivM T.rinlr foTrrtvod liim and the town intrusted him with de fending town site claims against three adverse mill site claimants, the stake for the winning side being the town and its borders. In 1887 Mr. Pence moved up to Denver and went into thS firm of which Tom Patterson, the proprietor of The Rocky Mountain News, is senior member. Here he made a reputation in the Londoner case, a suit brought to stop election crimes in Arapahoe county. He was made chairman of the Democratic coun ty committee and was serving in this ca pacity when Cleveland was nominated and the last Chicago platform adopted. He bolted the party, and the Populists and silver Democrats sent him to Wash ington as their representative on the Weaver-Field ticket. The exact antithesis of these young westerners is a new member from the busy factory towns around Boston, the eccentric Dr. William Everett, who sits in Senator Lodge’s former seat by virtue of the defeat of audacious young Speak er Barrett of the Massachusetts legisla ture. A gold bug and a radical civil serv ice reformer, he shows one extreme in the Democratic ranks, as Mr. Bryan shows the other extreme. William Everett is the son of the fa mous Edward Everett and a Cape Cod blueblood whose family tree takes in in its branches members of the Hoar, Lodge, Quincy and Adams families, to all of which he bears some relationship. The doctor was born in Massachusetts, has lived all his life in Massachusetts, is a Bay State man in all his ways, senti ments and thoughts. He is a scholar in politics. Around him cluster the yarns of the schoolroom and the blackboard. Congressman Everett is the author of several books for boys of an outdoor sporting nature which had a great vogue in their day, though they have been somewhat less heard of lately. He spoke some on the Republican side of politics up to 1884, but was one of the original Mugwumps of that year, and bolting Blaine declared for Grover Cleve land and civil service reform. Civil Bervice reform became a hobby with him, and he used to declare that there was no political issue save that. He is a bachelor, with an income of $10,000 or $12,000 a year and many odd __ Ana nf tViniin in n hotro/1 flf fllA interviewer and apparently of the pho tographer. To one newspaper man who went to him for a talk he said that h<< lay awake nights thinking of mean things to say to reporters. Printed speeches are his abomination, and the lively, cutting repartee of a running de bate a delight to him. The house did not see the last of the doctor in the speech he made on the silver question and will doubtless find much in his speeches and his oddities to gossip about in the cloakrooms before the session is over.

Some oflthe Queer Shapes they Come In All sorts of freaks in music boxes are in fashion just now. At a dinner party you pick up a glass water bottle to help yourself from it, and, to your surprise, it beigns to play a pretty tune. It keeps on playing with mysterious harmony while you fill your tumbler and until you set it down again. ‘What looked like ice in the bottom of it is a conceal ment for a bit of machinery that produc es two tunes. The price of the article, music and all, is only $3.50. After dinner your host offers you a ci gar. Youjchoose one and strike a match on a corrugated surface attached to the cup from which you took the weed. At once sweet music begins to be heard, the striking of the match having released the spring that starts it. This.. piece of mechanism is wound up by a few turns of the ash receiver, which makes a part of the smoking apparatus described. The price asked for such a contrivance at the shop is $7.50. In the dressing room provided by your entertainer on "this same occasion you may have found a toilet set in a box on the bureau. When the box was opened very likely it began to play a tune, the music machinery being concealed in the lower part of the receptacle. At the conclusion of the dinner a fruit plate is set down before you. Harmoni ous sounds proceeding from it excite your wonder, and your hostess _ explains that the pretty piece of china is loaded with melody by winding it up. It plays for five minutes and has two tunes. C no can get such plates for $10 each. If the hostess has occasion to summon a servant by means of a call bell the in strument responds with a tune. No winding is needed m this case, the push ing down of the button at the top supply ing the power to run the mechanism for half a minute or so. This contrivance costs $6. On the sideboard is a water pitcher which resembles the water bottle, hav ing within it a concealed music box.

On the man telpiece is aminature Swiss chalet, in the front of which appears the face of an eight-day clock. Every hour the time Eiece plays a tune, instead of striking, a iddeu music box being run by the time keeping machinery. It has six tunes, By the way, clocks are' made nowadays which go 400 days without winding But their mechanism is exceedingly delicate, and any jar is likely to put it out of or der. However, your attention is withdrawn from the timepiece by your host, who offers you a pinch of snuff from a gold snuffbox. No, you do not take snuff. It is just as well, for the snuffbox is not a real one. Your host touches a spring and the lid of the box flies open, out pops a little bird in bright feathers, which warbles most beautifully for two or three minutes. Then it pops back again, the lid shutting upon it and con cealing it from view. The contrivance is quite a complicated one, the mechan ism being as elaborate as that cf a watch, It is run by spring and clockwork with a little bellows and a whistle. You cannot buy one for less than $150. The bird in this case is very small—not more than an inch long. But you can get a full-sized artificial songster in a gilded cage which will carol to your heart’s content for the trouble of wind ing it up. You can have a canary, a robin, or a nightingale, as you choose. For $100 you can purchase such a bird, with a porcelain vase and imitation flowers, among which the feathered warb ler perches. “The mechanism of clock work, bellows and whistle is the same. Two songsters of this kind render melo dious the diningroom attached to Phil Daly’s gambling house at Long Branch. Music boxes have become wonderfully cheap of late years Nearly all of them are made in Switzerland. Although 45 per cent, duty is charged on them, you can buy one with a single tune for as little as 40 cents. For $1.45 you can get one with three tunes. These are of the cylindrical pattern, somewhat resem bling cans of pressed meat on outside ap pearance. Children have them for play things in the nursery. Their melody is produced by the continual turning of a little crank. For 2.60 one can purchase a rectangular box with four tuues, which foes by means of a spring, just like a ig one. A very pretty box with eight tunes can be bought for $15. The small cost of labor in Switzerland _A i 4- nnoeihla fn'ni'nfln no }«DY4»0 at such prices. Of course the most es sential parts of the mechanism are the roller and the steel comb. The little pins projecting from the surface of the roller catch the teeth of the comb and make the music. Necessarily the adjustment of the pins on the roller is a slow and careful process. They have to be put in one by one by hand. Women do this work, the distances of the pins being gauged by a mechanical contrivance. The comb is cut out by machinery and filed down by hand to the tone required. By the automatic shifting of the roller it is made to serve for several tunes.' But not more than eight tunes are put ordi narily on one cylinder. The fewer the tunes the better the tone of the instru ment, the comb being finer. When there are many tunes wider spaces must be left between the teeth of the comb for the pins to pass through which are not intended to contribute to the music. One style of music box is made with two combs for the reason just mentioned. This is called “sublime harmony.” The volume of sound produced by it is much greater. Such a box with ten tunes costs |,0. Other styles are called respectively the “piccolo,” the “tremolo,” the “gui tar,” and the “mandolin,” according to the instruments which they are supposed to imitate. The comb of the picolo” has anfoctave of short and very fine„teeth, giving very high and almost shrill notes, like the little instrument it counterfeits. These notes, high above the staff, pro duce abeautiful effect. The “tremolo” has a quaver in every note, like the singing of a third rute tenor. This is very pleasing to some people, though not to good judges of music. Atracneu LU iiiusl ui. lug uiusiu boxes nowadays is a device for giving what is called the “zither effect.” This is simply an arrangement for bringing into contact with the teeth of the comb a strip of tissue paper. Its effect on the nbtes is very much like that of a sheet of paper laid upon the strings of a piano. It is not pleasing to the educated ear. The finest type of music box is a com plete orchestrion four or five feet long, with bellows and reeds. It is a complete orchestra in a box, and will fill a large room with sound, having sweet hells and rolling drums to help out the ensemble. An instrument like this costs $1,050. Some people make the objection that such big music boxes look too much like coffins. To get over this difficulty arti cles of furniture resembling sideboards are made to inclose them, with shelves underneath for extra cylinders. The best music boxes are commonly made with interchangeable rollers. One of the latter can be'readily taken out and another substituted for it at a moment’s notice, with fresh tunes. For such an orchestrion as the above de scribed each extra cylinder costs $180. Another style of orchestrion is run by an alcohol motor, which keeps it going for two hours continuously. All you have to do is to light the lamp and off she goes. The instrument uses perforat ed music sheets like an organette. The music costs 75 cents a yard. It comes in books, a single volume Containing a whole opera which unfolds itself page by page and is fed automatically to the machine. The latter is a contrivance with strings which are struck by ham mers. It sounds very much like a piano and costs $175. Another new style music box is accompanied by as many big sheet iron disks as one cares to buy. Each disk is one tune. As it revolvers per forations in it catch the steel teetli of the comb. Music boxes cost a little more now than they did in 1880 when the duty on them was only 25 per cent. The man ufacturers say that the musical phono graphs have not done their business any harm.—Washington Star. The Father Of Texas. To Moses Austin, a native of Durham, Conn., a citizen of Missouri, is due the conception and matured plan of coloniz ing by peaceful and lawful methods the wilds of Texas with Anglo-Americans trained to venerate civil and religious liberty as the greatest blessing ever vouchsafed to men. Having matured his^ilan of colonization, he set out across the almost tackless wilds from his home to San Antonio, to the capital of the Spanish province of Texas, and reached that place in January, 1821. He at once laid his plan before Don Antonio Mar tinez, the Governor of the province. Governor Martinez was not.favorably im pressed with the plan, and peremptorily declined to recommend it to the supreme government of the Eastern Internal Provinces, whose capital was Monterey, and at the head of which was General Don Joaquin Arredondo, Civil and Mili tary Governor. On his way back to his lodgings, bowed down under the weight of his heavy disappointment, he chanced to meet his old friend the Baron de Bastrop a man of great influence in ‘Spanish affairs in Mexico. The Baron took Aus tin home with him, and there Austin fully explained to the baron the object of his visit to San Antonio, and laid be tv.Tt, iiim in detail his plan of coloniza tion. Fortunately the baron was con vinced that the scheme was feasible, and if executed would add to the power and wealth of Mexico. On the next day in company with Austin, he sought an in terview with Governor Martinez, and af ter elaborate discussion, Governor Mar tinez agreed to and did recommend the plan and forwarded it for approval to General Arredondo at Monterey. Aus tin, being unable to remain pending ac tion of the government of the Eastern Internal Provinces, left for his home in Missouri, and died there on the 10th of June, 1821. from fatigue, exposure and a severe cold contracted in his long jour nevs. He enjoined upon his son, Stephen Fuller Austin,;thg execution of his great plan, which was, in brief, the introduc tion into Texas, by Moses Austin as “impresario,” of 300 Anglo American families and their settlement as citizens of Mexico. I think no man could have been better equipped than Stephen F. Austin for the successful execution of his father’s plan. Having secured its recognition by the proper authorities of the Eastern Provin ces, as well! as authority in himself to execute it, he at once set about securing the requisite number of families, and having succeeded, and having provided them with the necessary outfit, he set out for Texas, and with a portion of the colonists reached; the Brazos River, where the La Bahia or Goliad road cross es it, in December, 1821, and the settle ment was at once begun. From this Eoiut (the crossing of the Brazos by the (a Bahia road) the colonists, as they ar rived, moved out in every direction, as far as the La Vaca and San Jacinto rivers, as they might well do, for there were in specific boundaries set out in this first colonization contract—in this respect diiffering from all those there after made. Later on the town of San Felipe de Austin was laid off near the place of landing of the first colonists, and was made the capital of the colony. Soon the three hundred families were all happily settled. Austin beame ac quainted with all of them, and was not long in securing their absolute confi dence, and in all the trying times that followed that confidence was never shak en. When he began his great task of colonizing he was but 28 years of age. Energetic, courteous, brave, honest, cool, and deliberate in judgment, with admirable administrative capacity cnnnrt morals, nunctiliouslv honorable. and a diplomatist by nature, he had all the qualities for the leadership of a colony destined to be devoted to civil and religious liberty. He subsequently made other colonial contracts, all of which he faithfully and promptly execut ed, and thus acquired the confidence of the Mexican authorities, with many of the distinguished citizens of Mexico who as personally acquainted. Shortly after colonization began he found it necessary to visit the city of Mexico in order to secure the ratification by the central gov ernment of his contract with the East ern Internal Proivnces,a step made neces sary by the rapid political changes then taking place in Mexico. He spent on his trip some 12 months in the city of Mexi co, and profited by the opportunity of perfecting himself in the Spanish lan guage and at the same time impressed upon the political authoirties the great resources of Texas, and its great value to Mexico when developed by Anglo American enterprise. Before his return colonists under other impresario con tracts began to pour into Texas, to ex tend the borders of the settlements and to add wealth and security to thejeom munity. No community of like size in Europe or America possessed ,;more talent, more enterprise, more courage, or a ^greater love of free government.. In ten years the community had an Anglo-American population of not less than 20,000.—From “Texas,” by Ex-Senator Samuel Bell Maxey, in Harper’s Magazine for Septem RIGBY PARK RACES OPENING MEETING.

Address all communications relating to sub scription and advertisements to Portland Publishing Co., 97 Exchange Street, Portland, Mb._ THE PRESS. MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 11. Senator Teller hit the President a hard rap over the shoulders of the newspapers. Tbe two trials of the cup defenders have made it practically certain that the New York boats are superior to the Bos ton ones, hut they have not settled which of the New York boats is the swifter, the Colonia having won one race and the Vigilant one. __ It is rather singular that Mr. Voorljees does not get angry with the silver men. They are resorting to all sorts of dilatory tactics to defeat the bill which he has introduced and which he champions, and yet he finds no fault. Butjwhen a Senator tries to help along his bill he fires up im mediately. If Mr.Voorhees is not careful he will confirm the suspicion which has been abroad for some time that his advocacy of the repeal hill is insincere. President Cleveland nas at ihsi wuuu a man who is willing to take up the work that Paramount Authority” Blount was so willing to lay down. He is not a gen tleman who has enjoyed great prominence but what is known of him i<in his favor. Naturally the fact that the President has appointed a minister to the Sandwich Islands at this time suggests the infer ence that the President is not in favor of annexation. The rejection of the Home Rule bill by the House of Lords was expected, and even the large majority against it gives no reason for surprise. The next move of Mr. Gladstone and his supporters will probably be an appeal to the country. If a new election returns a majority in the House of Commons in favor of Home Rule the Lords will promptly recede and concur with the lower house. They will not imperil their own existence by resist ing the will of the people when that will is certainly and definitely known. The modification of the position of the Iowa Republicans in regard toprohibition does not seem to have had the effect of taking that question out of politics. On the contrary it bids fair to be in the coming campaign to a greater extent than ever. Indeed it looks as if it would be the central question. Already many Republicans have bolted the regular nominations and put an independent ticket in the field, the Prohibitionists have also nominated a straight ticket, and so have the People’s Party. There are therefore no less than five tickets in the field. The Independent Republicans, Prohibitionists and People’s Party all endorse prohibition, while the straight Republicans and Democrats favor local option. The outlook for the success of the straight Republican ticket under the conditions that exist is not brilliant In spite of the fact that the country is only just beginning to recover from the disastrous inactivity of the past few months there are many signs of recovery throughout that vast region as yet but barely touched by capital—the South. The Manufacturer’s Kecord is authority for the statement that a large number of manufacturing concerns and mercantile corporations are preparing to commence business in many of the more promising localities south of the now almost erased line established by Mason and Dixon. The number of new enterprises in the North is fully as great, and the amount of money soon to be released by the operations of. investors is gratifying ly large. Generally the business outlook continues to improve. Paper mills in New England that have been idle for many weeks are running on full time; big shoe factories in New Jersey have also resumed and now give employment to as many hands as ever before; while from all over the country come cheerful announcements and every evidence of returning prosperity. Were it not for the uncertainty in regard to the inten tions of the Democrats as to the tariff the outlook for the coming winter would bo fairly promising, but it will be. impos sible for manufacturing enterprises to start up with confidence while the condi tions which they will have to encounter are unknown PERSONAL AND [PECULIAR. Captain Jesse McNeil, who command ed the Confederate detachment whicl captured Generals l Crook and Kelly ii Cumberland, Md., during the late war, has still in his possession the swore taken from General Crook. It is his in tention to present the sword to General Crook’s widow. Vegetarianism has made a distin guished convert in M.Francisque Sarcey, the great French dramatic critic. He has written a letter to a Paris paper de scribing his experiences, in which he says that he is only a moderate” vege tarian—that is, he eschews only meat, and admits eggs, butter and cheese, milk and fish to his regimen. He finds that he is in much more vigorous health and in better working condition than before. The first week, he says, is rath er hard to bear, but the benefit is soon felt thereafter. Private Dalziell, referring to his modest home in Caldwell, Ohio, predicts that the spot will be marked for a century to come as one of the most notable in America .“for in its humble and. limited circle,” he says, “more greatness has as Qpm’hlWI f.Vian n/nv nt.hpr hfiflTth stone in Ohio. Among those who have accepted its hospitality he enumerates Sherman, Kilpatrick, Noyes, Alger, For aker and Hayes, and he says that a thousand other comrades known have done his wife and him the like honor in the years now gone. The Duke of Edinburgh, between 1875 and 1885, made several attempts to sell to [.the German government his re versionary interest in the throne of Saxe Coburg-Gotha, to which he has now suc ceeded. In 1876 the Queen had a confer ence with the old Emperor William at Baden-Baden on the subject, and nearly succeeded in negotiating an arrange ment, but it fell through on account of a dispute about the.;pecuniary terms. Lewis Miller, of Akron, Ohio, who was chosenjpresident of.the International As sociation of Sunday school Workers at St. Louis, is one of [the best known men in that field in America. He is 66 years old, and has been active in Sunday s chool work for 40 years. Mr. Miller is president of the Chautauqua Assembly, and is a Methodist He was chosen, in fact, in recognition of that denomina tion, in accordance with,an unwritten law of rotation in the association. Mr. Miller has the further distinction of be ing the father-in-law of Thomas A.Ed ison. 2 Abraham Lincoln is said to have a liv ing counnterpart, so far as personal ap pearance is cncerned, in an alderman of the city of Brewe r in this State, Samuel E.Stone, who is by trade not exactly a rail-splitter, he [[being a carpenter. He wears his whiskers in much the same style as did President [[Lincoln, and has the same, or nearly the same, character istics of face and figure. Amateur Photography. This art is a source of unfailing'delight to those who once learn it, and its uses are almost infinitely varied. Almost any thing may be pictured[for future study or reference, from the beautiful face of the young girl down to'the ugly~face[o£ the pug dog. It not only combines in struction and pleasure, but profit as well, and its pursuit is being and should be encouraged. One great objection in the past has been' that the apparatus was too expensive and the arrangements for developing the pictures too complicated, but tne introduction oi tne ary piate pro cess and the reduction of the cost of the apparatus have greatly overcome the o in jection. Ladies make, I think, the most successful photographers. Within the last few years amateur photography has become so popular that nearly every community has its interested and enthu siastic operator. A camera that will do good work can now be purchased for ten dollars, and from that up to a hundred and more. It is not the cost of the apparatus that ensures good work, but the zest, skill and patience to produce it of the photog rapher. For common service the three and one-fourth by four and one-fourth inch camera is the best. The plates are much cheaper than the larger size, cost ing about 45 cents per dozen; then the apparatus is far more portable than the larger cameras. The light out-of-doors being better than in the house, pictures are simpler taken outside than indoors. Never photo graph with the camera facing the sun— it fogs the plate. A little experience will show about the amount of exposure necessary in the various lights. In the house quite a little ingenuity in arrang ing the light is necessary, for a larger exposure is needed. A skylight is the best, but when not obtainable, mirrors can be used to reflect the light on to the subject andjjovercouie the shadows. In a faintly lighted room with a quick plate at least'.four rseconds of exposure will undoubtedly be needed. In photograph ing objects that are stationary, a fine effect is produced by giving a lengthy exposure, forty minutes to a day at times. To develop the plate a dark room, from which is carefully excluded all rays of light is necessary. A red lantern should be used, for the red light does not affect the plate. The ready made developers for amateurs for making their own are better than any directions I can give. Usually the developing has gone far enough 'when the outlines can be seen through the back of the plate. For printing the sun is needed. The best pictures are produced by .exposure in the morning and afternoon ^rather than in the middle of the day. What is very much better than for amateurs to at tempt the making of it, is to buy sil vered paper or sensitized paper from some photographer. Ferr-prussiate” paper after printing only requires washing. The silver should be left all night in water. Procure the aid of a photograph er to show these processes if possible. Use very thick paste made from starch in mounting, and while the picture is still wet is the time to mount it. A few suggestions:—Varnish the nega tives with good white varnish to preserve them. First warm the glass and then pour on the varnish, letting all run off that will do so. It is a good idea to keep a record of every picture ior nirure reierence. Trim away the unimportant parts of the picture and bring out the subject in which is the most interest.—Farm, Field and Fireside. Young Explorers as Sized up by an Old One. The three polar expeditions'of the pres ent year are discussed by General A. W. Greeley in the current number of the Nortli'A merican Review, Nansens’ being regarded as hazardous and uncertain, Peary’s as likely to be successful to a certain point, but not beyond,and Jack son’s as offering the best hope of reachj ing the pole or its near vicinity. It will be remembered that Nansen intends to enter the polar seas by the Asiatic route, Eassing the New Siberian Islands. He as a^ship that he thinks will slide up when nipped by the ice instead of keep ing its place and being crushed and he purposes to stick by the ship and trusts to the currents which he believes exist. his expectation being that in three or four years he shall have been carried through the immediate vicinity of the North Pole and brought out between Spitzbergen and Greenland. Mr. C. R. Jaokson, an Englishman, is to go by way of Franz Josef Land. He will winter there in latitude 80 degrees, and will push on next summer by dog sledes, and lialeboats. Lieut. Peary will explore Northern Greenland on the same plan as in 1891, but hopes to get much further north. Iu view of General Greeley’s experi ence in Arctic travel his views as to these three expeditions are both inter esting and valuable. He gives most space to Nansen’s; but it is all to show that the attempt is more hardy than hopeful. He quotes McClintock, Nares, Young, Richards, Hooker, and Melville to show that no ship built can escapo the action of the floes, except under fa vorable circumstances, points out that the current on which Nansen reliesjis not known to exist; but only inferred from circumstances that are far from conclu sive; that currents supposed to be a part of this great stream have been shown to be due chiefly to the prevailing winds and that the mental and physical effects of solitude and danger in the Arctic ice are deprssing, and when continued for several years may become serious enough to cost the life or reason of the explor ers He notes as significant the fact that “no vessel ever beset in the main part of the Siberian Ocean has escaped therefrom.” Summing up this part of the case he says: “In my opinion the scheme is unwise, impracticable nd little short of suicidal ft an almost miracu lous eacape, similar to that of the Polaris drift party, spares these daring and determined men, it will in no wise prove its wisdom and desirability.” The Jackson plan is considered by Gen eral Greely to offer the most promising route for reaching the North Pole or a very high latitude. Franz Josef Land furnishes, in latitude eighty, a safe har bor, where Leigh Smith wintered, find ing game enough to supply his party with food. It is comparatively easy of acess, and many students of Arctic travel consider its fitness as the true route to the pole already demonstrated. Jackson will winter in Eira Harbor, above men tioned, and will push north in the sum mer of 1894, using sledges as far as prac ticable, and then taking to boats. As to Peary’s Greenland expedition, General Greely thinks that in view of his endurance, determination and skill, his moderate success is most probable; but as to his attaining the farthest north and mapping out the northeastern boundaries of the archipelago discovered by Lock wood, his chances of success are incon siderable, say one in ten. This opinion is based on the assupmtion that to ad vance beyoud Independence Bay it will be necessary to take to the icefoot and broken floes of the Polar Sea, to which General Greely does not believe Peary’s equipment is suited. In support of his opinion he quotes from a letter written by himself in April, 1891, forecasting the results of the Peary expedition of that year, and remarks: There are not ten men in the country including Peary’s entire party, who can today with out consulting Peary’s account in the New York Sun, descrbed as accurately what Peariy did as I foretold prior to his journey.

You cannot safely delegate the work to another. At this time, any one else, no matter what his ability, would be unable to successfully conduct your business, or protect your investments, as well as you can. But there is a chance that you may at any moment be forced thus to turn your affairs over to the management of another— namely, in the event of your death. Remember that executors often think more about avoiding risks and protecting themselves than of carrying out the spirit of the testator’s views). They generally lack experience in the business they are trying to wind up. This inexperience and possible lack of interest may cost 10 per cent or 15 per cent of the value of your estate, or more. You cannot but recognize the truth of this statement; neverthe less, you can secure this loss by assuring your life for the amount w hich, in your judgement, your executors would waste in wind ing up your estate. You can easily, by economizing a little in your living expenses pay from your income the premium on a policy for $50,000 or $100,000, issued by the strongest financial institution of Its kind in the world—The Equitable Eife Assurance Society of the United Stales, 1%U DI'UUUHd}, If you then chance to die, your executor will be instantly In the possession of $50,000 or $100,000 of cash in hand, and ready money will have a fourfold value if death comes in times like these. On the other hand, if you live, and take your assurance (for example) on the 20-year Tontine Endowment plan, you will yourself reap a rich reward on the maturity of the policy. The following is an illustration of one out of mauy such policies maturing in 189S:— EXAMPLE. Letter from a Policy-holder in the Equitable. In response to your request that I should give you for publication the results of Policy No. 81,524, which matured June 2d, 1893, I beg to make the following statement:— The policy was for $1,000, issued twenty years ago, on the Endowment plan. The amount paid In premiums was $953.60. Among other options, the following methods of settlement are now offered:— First—Cash surrender value, $1,597.04; equal to a return of all the premiuns paid, with interest exceeding six per cent, per annum. Second-A paid-up policy of life assurance for $3,858. Third-A life annuity of $112.58. June 2.1893. R.J. RILEY. N. B.-The writehiof the above letter has applied to the Equitable for a new policy for five times the amount of the original policy. For further illustrations and particulars, apply to F. H.

A HANDSOME ESTABLISHMENT. Alexis Menage Co., Dealer* in Ladies’, Misses' and Children's Garments. The firm of Alexis Menage Co., dealers in ladies’, misses’ and childrens’ suits, cloaks and furs, has opened the store No. 524 Congress street, facing Casco street and will open to the public tomorrow. Mr. Menage is the well known fashionable Washington street furrier, and cloak dealer, in Boston. Mr. George McMaster, of this city, who has been connected with Mr. Menage for many years, is the company. It is the intention of the firm to keep the finest and most extensive stock in their line east of Boston. The store 524 Congress street has been refitted and prepared especially for this house and is elegant and yet simple in its arrangements and decorations. The store is about 100 feet deep by 50 feet in width. The front part has stained floors covered mm neavy rugs, me rear store is handsomely oarpeted. The prevailing colors are in the decoration green and white. An old-fashioned colonial Staircase prettily carpeted leads to the second story where the surplus stock is kept. On the main floor are twenty seven large oak cabinets in which the garments are hung, protected from dirt and dust by heavy shades, that can be raised or lowered at will. There are four long cheval mirrors, one a triple mirror so arranged that a lady trying on a garment can see how every part of it fits. The other three are all double mirrors. Then there are large oak ti p ping tables on which garments can be displayed and examined by ladies sitting in large oak chairs in front. This is something new for Portland. There are very ^convenient toilet and trying o n rooms for ladies. The whole establish is lighted by electricity. In the fur department is an exten sive range of garments from $500 seal skins down. In the rug and wrap da department all kinds of high priced rugs and wraps are kept, down to to the ordinary beaver. The jacket depart ment is especially attractive. There are pretty fur trimmed coats with capes in value ranging from $100 to $3.50. The girls’ suits will prove a very strong fear ture as that department has not received as much attention as others in this city. Funeral of Rev. Joseph Colby. Funeral services for the late Rev. Jo seph Colby were held at 1.30 p. m. Satur day, at the School street M. E, church, Gorham. Previous to these services, prayer was offered at the home by the pastor, Rev. E. C. Strout, who also con ducted the service at the church. Scripture lessons were read by Rev. G. F. Cobb and Rev. A. W. Pottle offered a feeling prayer. Fitting and tender re marks were made concerning the life and work of the deceased by D. B. Randall, D. I>., Revs. E. K. Colby, G. R. Palmer and E. C. Strout. The selections of music were very appropriate and were flrwslw vAnrloroH Kir tlia SrtKnhflrf fiiiortaHA of Portland, Mr. Walter Smith presiding gracefully at the organ. The floral offer ings, which were many and beautiful, were tastefully arranged by ladies of the church. Several olergymen, members of the Maine conference, manifested by their presence their regard for this eminent servant of the church. The Gorham savings bank and other places of business closed during the ser vice and the officers of the bank attended in a body. A large congregation was present, including the leading business men of Gorham and adjoining towns. The funeral was)“conducted by R. G. Harding, and Mr. A. M. Benson, Mr. G. M. Lowell, Col. H. R. Millett, Mr. S. E. Storer, Mr. M. C. Kimball and Capt. B. F. Whitney acted as pallbearers.

Hanson C. Larrabee HOW THE SEASON CLOSED. Yesterday Was a Summer Day and Many People Enjoyed It, The season of 18:3 lingered with us un til last evening, for the last week was a very pleasant but entirely uncommercial way, as the resorts were open in little more than name. Yesterday was so bright that people were induced to make last excursions down the bay or out of town. The small boys, and others not as small, went over to the grounds and took a look at Pawnee Bill’s show, that is so much of it as was to be seen. Many yachts went down the harbor, and the visitors to the islands were many. It was a good closing day for a season in many respects bright and attractive. There were two arrivals of yachts, the handsome Random of Boston, and the strangely named but neat Efterpie. They helped to make the scene in front of the house of the yacnt ciud more attractive than it would have been. Both are here for the first time this season, and both are very neat and trim looking. All summer every Sunday has seen a large crowd at Fish Point, where the wind is supposed to always blow cool, and where there is commonly a chance to watch the yachts and steamers pass and repass almost constantly. “You won’t find any one there today” was the verdict given in advance of the evidence, by a bright fellow who made a sad mis take. The crowd was not as large as on former occasions, but some of the old timers were there. The man with a book was where he could read, and yet watch any thing of special interest on the water, and the young men who j have been trying hard Sunday after Sunday to settle the question of card championship, were in their regular and retired place. For the last time this year the Point” wore a summer look. The pleasant weather called out the wheelmen, who twere ofE for the Cape a NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

THE HOME. CANNING PEACHES. To can peaches select the richest and ripest fruias, but those without a bruise or^speck. To give the best result they should be canned “from the tree,” or but a few hours after they are picked—al though a very fair canned peach may be put up from the prime fruit of the mar ket. Begin by making a thin syrup, al lowing two cups of water and one cup of sugar to every quart can of peaches. Let the syrup melt slowly over the fire and boil about three or tour minutes; some canners prefer merely to bring it to the boiling point without cooking it further. As soon as the syrup is ready, set it at the back of the stove, where it will sim ply keep warm. Then peel the peaches, tearing them apart as you peel them, leaving the pit in one side, and dropping peaches and,pits into a can. As soon as each can is filled cover the contents with syrup and'screw on rthe cover, leav ing off the rubber; or, in case of jthe new patent cans, leave the vent open. When all the cans are ready, put a large, flat bottomed boiler (with a wooden rack in the bottom) over the fire.. This boiler and rack should be a part of the carfning outfit of every family where much work of this kind is undertaken. The flat, copper-bottomed boiler, such as is used for boiling clothes, answers every pur pose. An open rack to fit in the boiler can be made by a caroenter or by any person who can handle tools with ordi nary skill. The boiler should be large enough to hold 12 cans, with space enough between them for wisgs of hay or kitch en towels, which prevent the cans from knocking together and cracking in the boiling Let the peaches cook, in the cans in this way for 20 minutes. If you wish to make the peaches especially nice strain the syrup, using a pointed strain er, which will just fit in the can, for the purpose. A jar lifter is very convenient for„removing the hot cans from the water but it is not strictly necessary. As soon as the jars are taken out of the water open them, and you will see that the fruit has absorbed a considerable quanti ty of the syrup. Fill the cans up to the Ml lUl attain vta max a axuuau v^a. which is always left over after the first filling. This syrup should be boiling hot when it is added. Do one can at a time, in order to leave it open as short a time as possible. Put on the rubbers and screw it up instantly, as tight as possible. Let the cans rest until they are cold, then tighten them again, wipe them off, and set them away in a dark preserve closet.—American Cultivator. JELLY POINTS. The time required for boiling jelly is the point on which it is more easy to make a mistake than on any other. Hard fruit, such as apples and quinces, must be.boiled with a little water to draw out the juice. The juice should be allowed to drip into w basin or eathern bowl, never into a tin vessel, for the action of tin would be injurious.both to color and flavor. Currants and'small'soft fruits intended for jelly making should not be gathered immediately after rain, for the juice is then less rich and full of flavor. Only the best sugar should be used for making jelly. There is no economy in using cheap sugar; it contains impurities which must either be removd in the form of scum or which will;spoil the jelly. Jelly is spoiled as much when ov;r boiled as when under boiled. If under boiled it becomes mouldy or softens, or will not turn out in a shap*; yet if over boiled it candies in tim j, ^darkens and loses its flavor. Fruit that is dusty is not injured by being rinsed quickly in and out of cold water, but if it is gathered during rain it will be impoverished. Fruit juice that is to be converted into superior jelly should not he squeezed or pressed, but simply allowed to chip. The cloth or b*g used far straining may be m vie of flannel or of coarse linen towelling; either will do so long as per fect cleanliness is secured. The reason why fruit juices jelly is be cause thev contain a eelatinous sub stance, but until the fruit becomes ripe this is of little or no value; with' each d"y of over-ripeness it grows weaker. Boil the juice rapidly twenty minutes, and then drop in the sugar, which has been heated in the oven in flat dishes 1 until so hot that the hand cannot be borne in It; stir rapidly until It dissolves, withdraw the spoon, and as soon as it boils up once, pour into glasses. Fruits yielding a thick juice will need only three-quarters of a pound of sugar to a pint of juice while for the thinner juices a pound to a pint is the best rule. Green grapes require a pound and a half 1 to a pint. j The fruits most commonly nsed in j making jelly are currants, apples, cran berries, strawberries, raspberries and grapes. Of these strawberries and grapes are the most difficult to manage. Cher ries are rarely attempted; they are not quite suitable for either purpose, being too watery. The best teat of jelly w the following; 1 When jelly begins to boil skim off the froth as it rises. When it has boiled with the sugar about ten minutes (having been boiled without the sugar of course^ for 20 minutes) dip the skimmer in and out, holding it sideways over the jelly. If it runs off in only one place it is not cooked enough; but if it runs round the edge of the skimmer and drips off in two 1 or "three jflaces in wide, thick drops, it is 1 done.—IS.E. Farmer.

To accommodate Burnham Morrill with currency the Merchants’ National Bank of Portland secured a special issue and the firm took it all. The sums to be paid to individuals will vary between $5 and $150, not exceeding the latter figure. Therefore the notes of the Merchants’ bank will be distributed among many hundred people in the twelve factories. The firm say that their corn pack this season will probably be not more than one-half as large as usual although it may possiblv swell to two-thirds. They can’t estimate accurately yet. The corn is very scrubby and shows the effects of the drought. Burnham Morrill’s twelve factories are quite widely distributed, and may be considered as representative. ’Tis a small pack, short season. Davis, Baxter Co., have factories farther east and re port a little better showing in those sec tions. The packers are not grieving any over the situation. BRIEF JOTTINGS.

This has not been a very good season for fishermen, and there is a pr ispect that some departments will be dull (later on. The packing business is not giving employment to the ordinary number of men, the receipts of fish having greatly fallen off this year. Last year the mack erel business promised to revive some what and was largely in excess of the pack of previous years, a period of great depression, but this season it has fallen off again, and is now pretty well back to the lowest point previously touched. D. L. Fernald Co. report that the re ceipts here have fallen off greatly. At this time the catch, so far as Portland is concerned, is about 5,000 barrels short of that of 1892, while the general New Eng land catch will fall below that average. There are at least as many fishermen in the business as was the case last year, and the decrease' in the catch means the loss of much time. Herring fishermen are doing fairly well now. So far Portland has received about 1500 barrels, somewhat more than at this season last year. The enlire catch is, however, not as large as last year, when Gloucester got tho lion’s part of the whole. This year Portland is doing bet ter, and is now 400 barrels ahead of the catch of last year, with a smaller amount of fish taken as a whole. This is the most encouraging thing about tho pack ing business here this year. Of course the season is not over, and there may be a fairly good mackerel season, but the present loss of 5,000 barrels is not likely to be made up. The mackerel are off the coast in plen ty, but for some reason do not seem to be captured. A schooner that came in late Saturday afternoon reported great schools off the coast, but in shoal water, where they could not be got at. The reports of fresh fish taken, made from day to day by J. W. Trelethen, would indicate that the supply of fresh mackerel received here has been nearly equal to that of a year ago. The general fresh fish business has not been encouraging, although there have been some exceptionally good weeks. As a rule the men will make less than they did last year. The salt fish business promises, as far as the Portland fleet is concerned, to be very quiet. For some reason there is little interest felt this year by Portland skippers and owners in that line of the fisheries. Last year the Portland fleet was well represented, but this year but two Portland schooners are in that line, a great falling oif when it is considered how important that branch of the fisher ies was only a few years ago. Trefethen Bearce say that the supply has so far been about enough for the demands made by the local market, and commonly the calls outside are few at this season of the year. The Portland fleet is in the mack erel fisheries and in the fresh fish trade, but Nova Scotia fish has began to come in. Last week 600 quintal of Nova Scotia fish was received. The next two months will be the best time for the salt fish trade, and the dealers look forward to a fair supply, but Portland will not be in it, except to the extent of two schooners, a bad falling off from former years. There is just one thing that encourages the packers, and that is the prospect of a very active demand, and a consequent cleaning off of all their pack. The lob ster business continues fairly good, and fl-io domarul fnr p.lama ia Annul tn Ml A Rim ply, even with the great Chicago estab lishments a failure, and the oall for clams from that quarter very much restricted instead of being praotically mnlimited, as seemed to be the prospect at the first of the season. Other branches of the canning and packing business will come in for their part of the general loss, although there is, as in the case of the fish pack, the con solation of feeling that there will be a cleaning off of the old stock. “It will be a bad year for the farmer,” said a well known packer of canned goods. The drought has been the prin cipal factor in shortness of crops, and what was left undone by want of rain was completed by the high winds. This is especially true in the apple crop, and from various points the packers have been unable to obtain any apples for packing. The blueberry crop is also short, as, for example, one of our largest packers shipped 3000 cases to Dixfield, one of the best points in Maine for this industry, and only obtained enough goods to pack 93 cases. The corn out put may yield two-thirds of a crop, but probably it will come nearer to one-half. The only falling off in orders comes from the West, and there is no lack of a market, or of money with which to take care of the general pack in all depart ments.

ALEXIS MENAGE CO. 522 And 524 CONGRESS ST. THE2WILD WEST SHOW. A Sunday Vigit to tlie Camp Ground by a Reporter. Sir Samuel Baker dedicated one of his books “To all boys from eight years old to eighty” and between those ages, the boys of Portland were represented yes terday out on the grounds of the Wild West show, led by Pawnee Bill. And with the boys were a good many others, and they were all asking questions, and looking about. There is something very attractive in a show of the sort organized by Major W. Lillie, the man who led the wild rush in to Oklahoma, and who is known all through the West as “Pawnee Bill.” If anything a wild west show east, is more attractive than a circus. Of course all that could be done yesterday was to look around. The Indians were the great attraction. There is a good deal of difference between a Maine Indian and one of the Sioux tribe. The ordinary Maine citizen knows that the Maine Indian is a maker of baskets, and a river driver, while there is a certain degree of romance attached to those who are with Pawnee Bill, almost enough to justify what a young lady said when a tall, thin,calm looking old Indian passed, “I wonder where he keeps his scalps. A group of these Sioux Indians, erect, and with a very soldier-like bearing, attracted great attention. They kept well together, and at last took to the everybody who could talk at all, shower that Portland people are interested ant will be out today. Pawnee Bill seems tth day of September. A. D., 1893, to which date interest on claims is to be computed. That the payment of any debts to or by said Debtor, and the transfer and delivery of any property by him are forbidden by law. That a meeting of the creditors of said debtor, to prove their debts and choose one or more as signees of his estate, will be held at a Court of Insolvency to be holaen at Probate Court room, in said Portland, in said County of Cumberland, on the 18th day of September, A.

SOULE, Manager, sentll sidewalk. An Indian woman and her child also attracted general notice, and a degree of attention apparently hardly pleasing to the mother who carried her child strapped to her hack. It was [pay day yesterday, hut the Indians were not disposed to draw money. One brave looking Indian wanted it to be understood that $35 was due him. Having settled that matter he drew $3 and let the rest stand. Pawnee Bill has some good horses, and the cowboys, Mexicans and Indians are among the best riders in the world. The men are used to a camp, rather than a city, and seemed very much at home in the tents. The wigwams of the Indians are inside the enclosure where the performance will take place today. Each one is ornamented with pictures drawn by the Indians themselves, and supposed to show to his fellow tribesmen the name and style of the owner. The pictures themselves are only a shade better [than the cuts Ben Bunker used a few years ago when he was publishing a paper and getting material for his book on Maine politics. There was a crowd constantly about the old stage coach yesterday. It looks ancient enough to have crossed the plains many times, and very likely “Hank” Monk, and other early stage drivers had no better. It may be the very coach in which Horace Greeley took his immortal ride. The camp was well looked over yesterday. From’the cook’s tent to the “schooner” of the plains, every thing that could be seen was examined, and the torrent of questions rained down on sums. The writ further claims that the above mentiond agreement was ratified J une 7 1887, by a contract in writing entered in to by the plaintiff corporation and de fendant corporation and the terms o: this contract have been broken by tin non-payment of the $4,000 mentionei above. The writ is returnable at the Octobei term of the Supreme Judicial Court ii this city.
