LIME BAKING -POWDERS.

Lawrence American, LAWRENCE, MASS.

PRIDAf HUUHIHO, MABCU «, leU.

THE SILVER question has already made a serious rent fo democratic ranks, and it begin* to look as if.wltb ihe reduced detDOura'.ic strength in tbe next botive of representatives, President Cleveland mutt look to republican support to enable bim to carry out bis Bound ideas on tbe silver ques-

tion. _______

L0N0 S-i^HEirTe are published iriving tbe details of a supposed dis- crepancy in Gen. Butler's old accounts witb tbe Soldier's Homes, alleged to have been discovered by tbe committee on military affaire. Ceo. Butler con- fidently asserts tbat these are only seeming errors, and we have no doubt that ho will prore himself correct. There is not the slightest ground to believe tbat he failed to account for all the monies he received belonging to tbe homes.

Why the "Royal "is Absolutely Pure. Analysis shows the presence of Tnrtrate of Lime in sev-

eral brands of Baking Powder placed upon the market:

" CLEVELAND'S " baking powder contains tartrate of lime. "HANFORD'S" baking powder contains tartrate of lime. « —jp TQP n bajfing powder contains tartrate of lime.

" HECKER'S" baking powder contains tartrate of lime. " DE LAND'S " baking powder contains tartrate of lime. " GILLETS " baking powder contains tartrate of lime. All BULK baking powders contain tartrate of lime.

1 The presence of this substance in the above-named Baking Powders results from tbe use of inferior Gream of Tartar in their manufacture. The Cream of Tartar of the market,. from which they are made, contains Tartrate of Lime in amounts varying from six to twenty per cent, and hence these powders contain this impurity as a foreign substance to a corresponding extent, which is of no value, but a positive detriment in any powder in which it is found.

NO LIME IN ROYAL BAKING POWDER. The Boyal Baking Powder is made from Cream of

Tartar specially refined and prepared for its use by patent processes by which the Tartrate of Lime is totally elimi- nated.

This highly important result has been attained only with great care, labor, and expense. In money alone a quarter of a million dollars lias been invested in patents, machinery, and appliances by which the crude Cream of Tartar, being procured direct from the wine districts of Europe and subjected in this country to these exclusive processes, is rendered entirely free, not only from the objectionable Tartrate of Lime, but from otber foreign substances.

This adds greatly to the cost of manufacturing Royal Baking Powder; but, as all its other ingredients are selected and prepared with the same precise care, and regardless of labor or expense, an article is produced that is entirely free from any extraneous substance, and chemically pure in all respects.

No lime, earth, alum, or impurity of any kind can, by inadvertence or by the use of adulterated articles or otherwise, be introduced into the " Royal," and it contains no ingredients except those certified by the most eminent chemists necessary to make a pure, wholesome, and perfect Bak- ing Powder.

* It costs more to manufacture the Royal Baking Powder than any other, but it is, as shown by chemical analysis, the only " absolutely pure" Baking Powder made.

TBE SADDEST intelligence that has fallen upon the ears ot tbe American people since tbe war, is tbe statement made in relation to the serious condition of Gen. Grant, and he will be sure of the profoundest sympathy ol till classes In bis illness. Tbe greatest captain of the age, the grand character standing out most prominent of all iu tbe histoiy of tbe civil war, the up- tight citizen and honest magistrate, loved and respected, to whom foreign nations have accorded homage not given to any otber man of bis day. tbe world will be touched with hie

condition. .

THE STRIKE of the carpet weavers et Lowell, has resulted to tbe IOSB ot three weeks' wages to, not only the strikers, but hundreds of others, through the enforced stoppage ol the mill, and now a return Is made to work at tbe prices first ottered. There seems to be a strange fatality of sense- lessness about strikes, leading to their nauguration at the most Inopportune

seasons. Beyond the general dulneas of all classes of manufacturing, tbe treasurer ol tbe Lowell carpet mills bad shown by statistics at tbe annual meeting, only a short time before 1 hi?- strike occurred, that the selling prices of the product of the mill for 1884 had been less than of tbe preceding year, by more than tbe entire amount of wages paid, and that a reduction must temporarily be made or tbe mills stop. But in the face of these adverse facts, a strike agaiuBt tbe reduction was In- augurated ; it was a deliberate choice

no bread rBtber than part of a loaf,

and there was but one po»«bl« ™»«»t i failure was inevitable, and after tbr«e weuks or IOSB of wages, the terms it

the cornpsa/ are accepted.

WHILE GHEAT BIIITAIN hobnobs with Germany, inducing that powerful nation from one consideration or anothc), to allow itself to be counted on the Bide ol the British Queen in a possible conflict among the great powers, and Italy openly declares itself England's faithful alley, there is another country which has, when occasion warranted made some little trouble by openly de- fying her royal might and contesting with ber the championship of tbe world. Russia is always to lie consid ered of primary importance when the question of acquiring or retaining ter- ritoty in the east is concerned. She is extending her naval power in the Kuxlne by connecting Novoussisk, on the Black Sea, wiih tbe Russian rail w iy system by a branch line from the UostofT-Vladlkavkas line, and by tablisbing a naval station at tbe former place. When the British contemplate he positions relatively of Ruisia and Turkey in the Black Seo, she is forced to confess that it will be no easy task to dispossess Russia of what she bolls now or prevent her from acquiring territory in that region to Ihe extent ol her ambition. England herself acknowledges tbat it would require 15 01 20 English iron-clads to keep in check the lori»do boats which the Russian admirality has recently added to the Black Sea fleet. The Russian Heat in 1876 was nothing to boast of, but at the present time Russia has \i new steamers suitable for cruisers or transports, four of them attached to tbe Moscow fleet, and one to the Black Sea fleet, and eight to tbe Black Sea steam navigation tleet, all under the mauagemeutof the Minister of Marine. In addition lo these are three steamers built for tbe Odessa Rodokauaki com puny to run to Batoum.and the flotilla of tbe Gagarin company on the Danube which was eatablUbed by a subsidy from tbe state department, Tbe naval power of Russia has increased in tbe same ratio during the last seven years on the Baltic sea, and in case of a war with Great Britain the latter country, in addition to what she bad to calculate on in 1878, will have to send a force equal to fonr formid- able iron-clads, twelve armed steamers and transports and twelve sesgoing torpedo boats. This wilt necessitate tbe movement of a squadron on the Britls'd aids such as even that ambitious nstion is not at present quite pre- are J to undertake.

YOUNG MAN'S FALL.

Expensive Habits and Fast Ca- reer Laael to Ruin.

The csse of Ernest J. Kenyon of llsver- hill, tried here last week for the em- beEslemeutof funds from the firm ol Hall a Chase, shoe dealers In HAverhUl, until 1SHS, im* been the most Interesting one as showing how a fast career may lead one into crime. From the evidence introduced, it appears that Kenyon was, previous to his employ by Hall t Chase, at work In Lowell foi the Arm of Hoyt A Shedd, who, finding him dishonest and an embezzler to the extent of #100 discharg ed him. He then went to Haverhlll and engaged as book-keeper for Hall a Chose, with whom he continued for nearly three years. Some time In '83 the firm was dissolved, and when a settlement was made It was discovered tbat there was a i> ak- age somewpere. Not long after, Hall committed aniclde, and Mr. Hopkluson af Bradford was appointed administrator of his estate. In examining the books, Mr. Ropklnsou found various Irregularities in the book-keeping and spoke to Kenyon about It, who thereupon orrery soon arter attempted to commit suicide by taking laudanum. This was about a year ago, and directly afterward Kenyon waa arrested. It aUo appear that Kenyon's as- sociates were of the wealthiest people of Lowell and Haverhlll, and that his expenditure* were far greater than his Income, which waa hut |15 per week.' He kept a trotting horse, a fine carriage, and was accustomed to go to Lowell every Satur- day night remaining over Sunday. His visits there were at the time tbe occasion of much social scandal. He gave many valuable presents to ladies of the first families in Lowell, snd was looked upon by many as a man of means, and as a jolly good fellow among the "boys." It Is also asserted that he was a patron of the Ken-

House and spent much time at tbe Park driving his trotter.and was addicted to drink; that by these expensive habits he contracted debts which he wss unable to pay with money Honestly obtained, and that in his extremity, he had recourse to the funds of his employers with tbe result of detection, trial and conviction In a court of Justice. The defence was an attempt to throw discredit on the character of the dead partner, and make him the wrong doer and Kenyon a tool in Ids hands. The latter testified that the false entries In book-keeping were Intend- ed to account for the money taken by Hall. That the flimsy story of the defendant was not believed was evidenced by the jury. Several exceptions were taken to rulings of the court during the trial of,lhe case, and It is possible It may be carried to the supreme court.

Friday forenoon Lawyer Moody of Hav- erhlll, counsel for the defendant moved that the court set aside the verdict as un- warranted by tlie evidence. District attorney Hurlburt contended that the cvi- leuce was sufficient to convict, but Judge Blodgett stated that, although he bad no doubt m bis own mind that Kenyon was an embezzler to tbe extent of several thousand dollars, he believed he should be obliged to set aside the verdict, as the evidence iu tbe particular count on trial had been Insufficient for tbe verdict ret • do red.

He would, however, take'gthe matter Into consideration, reserving his decision for the present.

And when be advertised sgain, his rivals stamped and swore, to see folk's rush

Ammonlate >aklng powders—that Is, baking powders In which carlmuate of mini is used as an Ingredient, and which exhale an odor "f ammonia when heated—are classed by many eminent physlblans and sanitarian* a» superior to all others. Professor Hassell, of tendon, who Is recognl/.i'd as highest authority 011 the subject of food hygiene, commends In the strongest terms the use of ammonia as a leavening agent, stating its great advantage to I*! In il» perfect volatility, which permits It to be, by the heat of baking, entirely thrown Into i< avenlng gas whereby tbe bread Is raised. The exjteri- ment with heat would seem to Indicate the superior, not the Interior, value of such biking powder. The little heat that is Imparted to it when held over a ga- jct, lamp, or stove, sulhVcs to resolve the carbonate of ammonia Into li'avcnlt;g ga>. and throw it off. The first heat of hiikiiiy,. therefore, will effectually develop all the gas, thoroughly leaven the loaf, and dis- sipate the gas producing Ingredients of I powder of this kind; and this Is the highest lest Of a perfect baking powder. Where Other alkalies alone are used they are net infrequently retained, unresolved, through the whole process of baking, and remain an unwholesome ingredient in tha finished bread. The carbonate of ammonia cannot be used an a substitute for cream of tartar.—N. V. Weekly Tribune.

it Is more than inMrustled li.nt the

baa been missed by the organization,

ot self-government, they have com-

mitted to one ol their fellow citizens a

supreme and sacred tlust, aud he here

Thia impressive ceremony adds liillc lu tbe solemn Htmse ot responsibility

with which I contemplate (be duty 1 owe to all the people ot the laud.

Nothing can relieve too from aoxiety

Amid the diu of party strife thc-

people's choice wua made, but its at-

tendant circumstances have demonstrated anew the t-trengtb and safety

of a government by the people. I.J

each succeeding year it more clearly

appeais that ottl democratic principle

needs no apology, and that in ite (ear-

less and faithful applications is to be

found (ho surest guarantee of good

government. But the beBt results lu

the operation of a government wherein

evtry citizen has a share largely de-

pend upon a proper limitation of pure-

ly partizan zeal and effort, aod a cor-

rect appreciation of the time when the

heat of tbe partizan should be merged

In the patriotism of tbe citizen. To-

day the execotive brauch of the gov-

ernment is iranefeired to oew keeping.

But this is still the governmeut of all i in' people, and it should be oone Ihe

less an object of their affectionate soli chad*, At this hour the animoaities

of political strife, the bitterness of

partizan defeat, aud the exultation ol paiiiaan triumph, should be supplanted

by an ungrudging r.equleaeenee in the

popular will and a sober, conscientious

concern for the gencial weal. More

over, if from this hour we cheerfully

and honestly abandon all seclioual

prejodlee and distrust, and determine,

with manly eonlldence in one another

to wotk out harmoniously tbe achieve-

ment of cur national destiny, we shall

deserve to realize all the benefits which

our happy form of government can be- stow. On this auspicious occasion we may well renew the pledge of our de-

votion to tbe Constitution, which,

launched by tbe founders of the republic and consecrated bv their prayers

and patriotic devotion, has for almost

a century borne the hopes and (be

aspirations of a great people through

prosperity and peace, and through the shock ot foreign conflicts and the perils

of domestic strife and vicissitudes. By

ihe Father of his Country our consti-

'■n in i MM commended for adoptioa as

"tbe result of a spirit of amity and

mutual concession." In that same

-pirit it should be administered, in order to promote tlie lasting welfare of

the country ant) to secure tbe full

measure of its pnee'ess benefits to us,

aod to those who will succeed to (tie iilessluQs of our national life. The

Intge variety of diverse aod competing

i teresta subject to federal control, persistently seeking the recondition ot

their clalma, need give us no fear that

the grealeat good to the greateat num-

l*r will fail to be accomplished, il u

the IIHIIB ot national legialation that

spirit of amity and mutual concession

shall prevail in which the Constitution

had its birth. If this involves tbe

surrender or postponement of private

interests, and tbe abandonment ol local

advantages, compensation will be

found in the assurance that thus tbt common interest la subserved and tbt

general welfare advanced. In the dis

charge of my official duty I sh:tl| ou

deavor to be guided by a just and un< strained construction of the Conslilu

nou, a careful observance of the dis

iluction between the powers granted lo

the federal government and those

reserved to the state or to the people,

tod by a cautious appreciation of those

unctions which by the Constitution

iiid laws have been especially asBigued

to the executive branch of the government.

But he who takes the oatli today to

preserve, protect and defend the Con-

stitution of the fuiled Stales, onlv as-

imcs the solemn Obligation which rery patriotic citizen ou ihe farm, in

the workshop, in Hie busy marts of

trade and everywhere should share

with him. The Constitution which

prescribes his oath, my countrymen, is

and the national capital, is yours

exercises a public trust. Nor ia this

all. Every citizen owes to the coun-

try a vigilant wateh ami close scrutiny

of ils public servants, and a (air and

reasonable estimate ot their fidelity

and usefulness. Thus is the people's

will impressed upon the whole frame

work of our civil policy, municipal,

state and federal, and this is the price

of our liberty and the inspiration of our faith in ilia republic.

It is the duty of tlmse serving the people in public place to closely limit

public expt-nuilurea to Ihe a^lual needs

of the government, ecouoroically ad-

ministeied, because ihis bounds the

right of the government to exact trib-

ute Irom the earnings cf labor or the

ptoperty of the citizen, and liecauae

public extravagance begets extrava-

gance among the people. We should

never be ashamed ot the simplicity and prudential economies which are best

uitcii lo tbe operation of a republican

Tin of government and moat couipati>

le wilh the mission of tbe American

people. Those who are selected for n

led time lo manage public affairs are still of the people and may do

much bv their exatnplo lo encourage,

xtnsUtenlljr with the dignity of their

ifflelal tiinctious.that plain way of lib

which among their lelluw citizens aids

"t< g'tty and promoiea thrift and pios peril/,

ine genius of our institutions, the

needs of our people in their liomc life,

aud the attention which is demanded

fur the settlement and development of

the reaources of our vast territory,

dictate the scrupulous avoidance of

any departure from that foreign policy

commended by the history, tbe tra-

ditions and prosperity of our republic.

Il is a policy of independence, favored

by our position and defended by our

known love of justice, and by our pow-

er. It is the policy of peace, suitable lo our interests. It la the policv of

neutrality, rejecting auy share la tor*

cign broils aud ambitions op other

continents, and repelling iheir intru-

iion here. It is tbe policy of If uiroe

■'id of WashingUm and of .I. n«r-.on-—

"peaceful commerce and h meat

friendship with all nations, enian^ling

itlliances with none."

A due regard for the interests and

prosperity of all tbe people demands

that our fiuaocee ihall be established

he iiciiinulation of a surplus in tbe

Treasury to tempt extravagance and

waste. Care for tbe property ot the nation and for tbe needs of future

•tillers requires that the public domain

should be prolec:ed from purloining

Hihemera and unlawful occupation.

The conscience of the people demands

that the Indians within our boundaries

shall be fairly and honenly treated aa

wards of the government, aud their

education and civilization promoted* with a view to their ultimate citizen-

ship: and that polygamy lu the Ter- ritories, destructive of the ft mity re-

lation and offensive Lo the moral aensc

•I the world, shall be repreased. Tbe

laws sin uld be rigidly enforced which

prohibit the immigration of a servile

■lass to compele with American labor,

vii ii no intention of acquiring citizen-

ship, and bringing wilh lliem and re-

taining habita aud customs repugnaut

to our civilization.

The people demand reform in tbe

administration of the government, and tbe application of business principles

lo public atlairs. As a means to ttria

end. civil service reform should be in

good taith enforced. Our citizena have

the right to protection from the in-

competency of public employee who

held their places solely as the reward

of partisan aervice. and from the cor-

rupting influences of those who promise

and tbe vicious methods of those who

expect, such rewards, and those who worthily seek public employment have

tbe tight to insist that merit aod oom-

pelency shall be re ognlzed, instead ot

party subserviency or the surrender ot liontst political belief. In the admin-

istration of a government pledged to do equal and exact Justice to all men,

there should be no pretext for anxiety toucltiig the protection cf the freed-

meu in their rights, or their security

in the enjoyment of their privileges

under tbe Constitution and its amend

ments. All discussion as to their fit- ness for the place accorded to them aa

American citizens is idle and unprofit-

able, except as il suggests the necessity

fur (heir improveineut. The fact that

ttiey are citizens entitles them to all the

rights due to that relation, andchargea

them with all its duties, obligations aud responsibilities.

These topics aod the constant and

ever varying wauls of an active and

enterprising population, may well

receive the attention and the patriotic

endeavors of all wtio make aud execute

the federal law. Uur duties are prac-

tical, autl call for industrious applica

ti'jn and intelligent perception of tbe claims or public offices, aud above all,

a tlrm determination by united action to secure to all the people ot the land,

Monday night was a gala the Essex rink. The number of masquers

as large as has been seen, but

what was lacking In numbers was made

up In brilliancy, beauty and elegance.

The sitting capacity of the large rluk was

thoroughly tested. Hardly an unoccu-

pied seat could be seen, and the alleys,

and passage ways were completely packed

with the crowd of ou-lookers. The cos-

tumes were varied; from elegance to

oddity, aud from oddity lo originality. A

German Jew with pack upon his back

danced about the rink, chasing pretty

girls and offering to sell hose at wonder-

fully low Hgures, averring that be was

losing thereby JS per cent, a Japanese

lady glided about with a prince of the

realm, and a flower girl was pursued by

hosts of young knights upon whom she

IW and then favoring glances.

Topsy, black as tbe ace of spade*,

masqueraded with her white sisters, and

Oscar Wilde whispered poetic sentences

In the ears of damsels fair aud worshipful.

And so tbe throng of beauty and youth

glided about the rluk, iusplring music

lending to ilir mil-in.-i-^ flying feet, aud

ever as the dltzy ttirung went louud, the

eager eyes of hundreds of spectators fol-

lowed. The elastic sUp of youth never

earlcd of tbe pleasure, and bright even

flashed and sparkled, the glow of health

mantled tbe cheek, and graceful forms

glided In harmony to the rytbm of the

music. Until nearly ten o'clock the

masquers held the floor, and then the com-

mittee of award, consisting of Peter W,

Lyall, Esq., John F. Finn, and Dr. G. B

Elliott, annouueed the prize winners, who

OUT OP THE DEPTHS

Heroic Itcacue From Drowning

by a German Lad.

Walter Vosel ts the fi-year-old son of

Henry Vogel ard resides with Ills parents

at 1311 Jackson street. Wednesday after-

noon at about 4 o'clock be was playing

merrily on the bank of the Spleket, in the

vicinity of rhcstmit street, and shouting

lu glee as he watched the eddying waters

gliding down the stream, when suddenly

hia foot slipped and w ith a wild cry hi

fell latu the hurrying waters and was

bourn out Into the middle of the stream, waabalaoj rapidly carried down sen-am

aud waa alnklng, when Guitav Pllsch,

boy 18 years old, who works In the baker

shop of Kinil K..Hi, at L',". Chestnut street,

and who was asleep at the time ho heaid the lad's cry, his work being night work,

hastened to the river bank, and seeing the

condition of Walter, plunged Into the

stream, which at thia poiut is very rapid

and deep, and swimming out to hlin seized

him and after a desperate struggle suc-

ceeded In reaching the shore. Little Wal

ter had sunk several times In the ley wa-

ter aud was cold and slid", and ItusLav

thought he waa dead i Diet, he rolled him

the ground and rubbed hla hands, but

no signs of life were apparent. Ue pro-

inrad assistance and conveyed the lnsem

.llilc child to hla home, at 133 Jackson

street, where Dr. Sargent was called, and

alter working over him fur a long time

hairing his* hands and applyitur warm

cloths to him, the boy opened bis eyes

and gasped, aud In aahoit time was abli

to sit up. Ills young rescuer himself

w [■. nearly frozen by ulsbatli In the chilly

waters, but a short time sufficed to restore

to a comfortable condition. Today

little Walter Togel la aa bright nnd happy

as ever, his involuntary bath having had

uo permanently III effect. The bravery of

young Gustav Pllsch Is all tbe more com-

mendable when It la considered that at

the point where he rescued the little boy

the water 1B very deep, and the current

exceedingly strong on account of a bend

in the stream, and high water.

At the last meeting of the Lowell water

board of 18B4, E. B. 1'tercc submitted a

bottle of water containing the washing of

a Uallowell quartz litter that had been in

uae on au ordinary kitchen faucet in Low-

ell for about a month. The sample when

shaken up was about the color of strong

boiled coffee, tlie sediment being fully as

dark aa coffee grounds, 'lhe specimen

presented so unfavorable au appearance

that upon motion of Mr. Tierce the super-

intendent was authorized to Imye the wa-

ter analyzed. It was accordingly done

and the report of Mr. Atwood. the chem-

ist, to whom it waa sent, Is given below f

Lowell, Feb. 23. MR. HOLDRN—Dear 8ir:—I have exam-

ined the sample of "sediment" from a Ni- ter, received from you ami make the following report 1 The sample brought to me consists mainly of water, a small amount of brown sediment, aud grain-* of quartz aaud from the Alter; these latter are n>t Included In the results given below.

Coder the microsropo the sediment Is seen to contain low vegetable forms, some diatoms and desuildaen*. but no auimul life that 1 could dlarover. The sediment does not grow offensive upon long standing In a warm plaeh. The sediment contains:—

The residue thus obtained contains

Organic matter, Silica, Oxhlo of Iron,

also a trace nf magnesia. In conclusion I would say that I do not

consider this sediment dangerous to tbe health, and is about what we expect to find iu a tiller of city water.

Wednesday the tenants of Sweeney'

block gave a social party lu tbe block, to

hi'-li a few friends were Invlted.thls be-

ing the llrst of a series to occur annually.

The idea originated with the young ladies

n the dress making rooma of Mrs. Anna

T. Chlpman, and one of the plcasantest

occasions of the season was enjoyed by

those fortunate enough to be present.

Dancing was the chief amusement, al-

though other pleasures were indulged In,

and In the large hallway tbe dance pro-

gramme, which eonalsted of ten numbers

was very successfully carried out. The

programme, which was the work of Tom-

my Callahan of the Journal, was unique

and original, and among the dance num-

bers were those of local application such

aa "Cut and basted," "Buttonhole Stitch,

Rats," "A close shave," "A fat Take,"

and "A boss racket." At the conclusion

of the dancing s delicious spread, con- Isiingof all the good thinga set down hi

the gastronomic catalogue was partaken

of In the ball overhead and full justice

'tmie to the tempting display. About

twenty couples participated In the danc-

ing, and the older people who did notpar-

tlclpatc seemed to enjoy as fully as any

the festivities of the occasion. At a sea-

sonable hour the party broke up, with

many pleasant wishes for the tenants of

the block.

Building: Improvements,

Workmen are engaged In digging for

the foundation of the new block to be

erected by Curran A Joyce. The work

s being done by Moulton & U'Mahoney.

The main bulldlug wilt be 50 feet front-

age by 40 feet side, and the L, 33 by 93

feet. It will tie four stories, of brick,

tbe front to be of pressed brick, and

trimmings of granite. The plan* were

made by Jamea Flanagan. Tbe work

will not be let otit by contract, but will

be dona under the supervision of the

firm. The entire building will be used

entirely by tbe firm for their bottling

bnalness. It will probably be tbree or

four months before the block is completed, j

The Oliver Clionia.

The sololRta who are to appear at the

concert of the Oliver Chorus), on Wednes-

day evening, March ll, need no introduc-

tion to a Lawrence andlencc. Those who

attended the concert Riven by the Club

last year, will remember with pleasure

Miss Kehew's magnlilrent voice, and her

noble rendering of the dlRlcult music of

the "Loreley." And Miss Edmands, too,

has proved herself Justly a favorite with the Lawrence public. Mr. Willis Clarke's

name is well known to all New England

lovers of music, and his reputation should

The Banana.

Hy descent Lite banana ia a devel-

oped tropical lily, not at all lemotely

allied to the eotooloa Ha, only thai its flowers and fruil are massed together

on a banging Spike, instead of grow-

ing solitary and Beparale, as in the

true irises. The blossoms, which

though pretty, ure comparatively in-

couapicuous lor the aizu of ihe plant,

*liow the extraordinary persistence of

the lily type, for almuBi all the vast

number ol species, more or less direct

ly descended from tbe primitive lily,

continue to the very enj of tbe chapter to have six petals, six stamens and

three rowa or seeds in their fruits or

capsules. But practical man, with

hia eye alwayB fixed on tbe one Im-

porlant quality ol edibility—the sum

and substance lo most people of all

botanical reaea-cli—has confined hia

alleullon almost entiiely to lhe fruit

of ihe banana. In all essentials (other

thaii the aysiematically unimportant

one just alluded to) the banana liuii in its origiual sti u exactly resembles

the capsules of the iris—llial prettv

pod thai divides in three when tips',

and shows lhe dilieate orange coaled seeds lying in triple rows within—

only in ihe tanana, the fruil does not

open; in the sweet language of tech-

nical botany, it is an indebiscent cap. aule ;"anrl the seeds, instead of stand-

ing separate and distinct, as in the iris

are embedded in a soft and pulpy sub-

stance, which forms the ediblo and

practical part ol ibe entire arranee- ment. e

Tali is the proper appearance of the original and natural banana, before it haa been taken in hand and culti-

vated by tropical man. When cut

across the middle it ought to allow

three TOWB of seeds, inicraperaod with

pulp, and faintly preserving some dim

memory of the dividing wall which

once separated tbeta. In practice,

however, the banana diflers widely

from this iheoreticnl ides, as practice oflen will difler Irom theory ; Tor it has

been so long cultivated and selected by

man—being probably one of the very oldest, if nol actually quite the oldest

ui domesticated plants—1 hat It fina n]\

hut lost the oriKiual habit of produc-

ing aeetla. This is a common eflect of cultivation on fruits, anil it ia, of

course, deliberately aimed at by borli-

culluriBta, as the seeds are generally a

nuisance, regarded from tbe point of

view of the eater, and their absence

improves lhe fruil, as long as one can

gel along somehow without thrni

AMMONIA IN FOOD. In analyzing samples of Baking Powder purchased by myself

of a number of grocers in New York City, I find that CLEVELAND'S SUPERIOR BAKING POWDER CONTAINS ONLY PURE GRAPE CREAM OF TARTAR, BICARBONATE Or SODA AND A SMALL PORTION OP FLOUR, WHILE THE ROYAL BAKING POWDER CONTAINS IN ADDI- TION THERETO, TARTARIC ACID AND AMMONIA. THE AMMONIA GAB IS OBSERVED NOT ONLY IN THE ROYAL BAKING POWDER WHEN IT is HEATED, BUT EVEN IN BISCUITS MADE THEREFROM.

My examination shows that Cleveland's Superior Baking Powder is better than the Royal Baking Powder, because:

1st. It is compounded of better and more wholesome ingredients.

2d. It yields a larger amount of Carbonic Acid Gas and In a more satisfactory manner, in consequence of which less pow. der is required to produce light bread material

3d. It is honestly sold as to weight. The Cleveland cans con-

tained full net weight, while the ROYAL CANS WERE SHORT WEIGHT.

('. A. ifymnaslQin. In this city wan an ex-

periment. It la so no longer, for iu s«s>

eesa Hnanclally la aeanred, and ttifWnvtlt"

physically, which hare followed Its pat-

r insge i>v the young men of the ett* have

been wunderful. The apparatus nssd Is

nil of the latest device, light iu coiintruc-

tiun, and while tber funtish a gentle, in-

viôratlng exercise, do not exhaust one B

ttr^Dgth. Among the beat of the varied

iipliarntua In use 1B the back weight, of

which there are twelve In the gymnasium.

i bass especially develop and strengthep

the back, cheat and shoulders, aod lsvlgor-

.u .■ the whole body. Formerly dumb bells

were made of Iron, and their nee by per-

sona weak either from disease or youth,

was almost Impossible. They are now

made of wood, and their use Is more

beueHcl&l than the old style of bell, and

Hive a pleasant exercise that is at the same

time productive ef the best results in de.

vcloplng the form. The principal time in

which members use the gymnasium 1B In

the evening, when usually there are present

twenty or more. Some ef the members,

however, use the room during the day, at

any and all hours, and seem to enjoy It

thoroughly. Among the members there

are clerks, operatives, lawyers, who are

probably getting up their muscle f oi BOIUU

liillru.lt case, high school boys, and small

boys under sixteen years of age. The

younger portion of the members usually

use the machines during the afternoon.

The members for the most part, drees In

kuee pants, a woolen undervest, and shoes and stockings for their gymnasium work,

though some wear the regulation gynina-

lum costume. Either 1B light and easy,

and looks very natty. Those who have

used the gymnasium regularly Blnce It baa

been opened, say that It has been a most

decided benefit to them, giving them a

new feeling of life and buoyancy that tbey

lever felt before the use of the gymnastic

ppllauces. One young man who used

the gymnasium regularly until a month

ago, when he was out of town forawhlle,

said that he toon noticed the different

feeling, there was not the same elasticity of spirits, or the same physical vigor as

when using the instruments, and on bis

return he at once began bis exerclsea

again. Another youug mm has gained

ight pounds since he became a member,

and attributes it all to the exercises be

has gone through. Several young men

have jehied on advice of their physicians,

ami find their general health greatly Im-

proved by the use of the appliances.

There are at present one hundred and fifty

male meinliers of the gymnasium. A

track for walking is very much needed,

but there Is no room for one In the build-

ing. It is to be hoped that some arrange-

nt may be made for one before another

•HHS5 =K= SEWS AND NOTES.

But the gentlemen are not alone In the

desire for greater physical development.

There are at present twenty-five young

ladies who form a clans In gymnastics,

and use the gymnasium everyfday, Mon-

days and Wednesdays from 5 tO|6o'clock

p. in., and on other days from 11 a. m. to

12 ra. Among these are several school

teachers, school girls, and married ladies.

Altogether the gymnasium Is doing an

excellent work. Kvcry thing about it la

quiet aud orderly, and It is much appreci-

ated by the many who have became members.

lows t —

In all the columns of newspaper matter, and I am almost tempted to say books, that have been written on Dr. Burchard's famous speech to Mr. Blalne at the Fifth-avenue Hotel, last fall, the true story has never yet been printed. My information comes from the verj highest source. Several days before the Fifth-avenue Hotel lucldeut, Mr. Blai: received telegrams from several of his friends In various parts of the country, all of them warning him to look out for sons trick or trap which was about to he set for him. He made inquiries, but certalned nothing, and tluully cauiu to the conclusion that the fears and warnings of his frleuds were groundless. He came to New York and drove at once to the Fifth avenue, where his family were waiting for him. After giving notice that he wat very much exhausted by his long journey he retired to his private apartments, with the members of his Immediate household. He had not been there but a few moments when a colored messenger came and said that there were about 'a thousand preach era waiting to see him." This was the first notification that he received of the Intended visit of the clergy. He went to the head or the staircase, and the air seemed to oe full of preachers. Mr. Blalne says that he did not hear a woril that Ilurchard was saying to him, owing to the confusion and noise, but he guessed at the object of their call aud replied in a brief speech. Now comes the Interesting part of the story, and which, I am informed, has been verllled by Mr. Blaliit: and his friends. There were In the crowd at least two agents of the democratic ni tlonal committee, and these agents kite every word that was in Ilurchard s speech

»re be read It to Mr. Illalne. AH soon as it was delivered, aud Burchard had carried out bis part of the programme Mr. Blalne firmly believes, these agents ran to the democratic headquarters and reported at once the fact tliat Burchard's alliteration had been allowed to go un- challenged and uncoutradlcted. The most skilful meu in the employ of that committee were put at work to see that Burch- ard's speech and Blaiue's reply hail the most display In the democratic newspapers and In various other channels having the public eye ond ear. The result of It all was that the next day Ilurchard awoke to flud himself famous. The democratic trick had succeeded, ami so far had It been carried, ami so effectively had il been placed in the mind of the public, that Mr. Blalne's subsequent speech on the topic had, as It afterwards proved, very little weight. Now, there Is another curious circumstance which may possibly throw some light on the question of how Burch- ard aouur.au uta ft*ward. Smith M. Weed is an astute New York politician, who was committed to Mr. Cleveland's cause with all the ardor anil enthusiasm with which one man could support another. He held a mortgage on Burchard's house for 84500 A very few days after the "lUim, Roman. Ism ami Rebellion" speech was delivered this mortgage was discharged. Of course Mr. Blalne's friends would not for all the world Intimate that Mr. W«d paid Dr. Burchard for making his speech to Mr, Blalne, or that there Is any connection between the two; neither do I, but n was a peculiar circumstance happening at that particular time, wasn't It?

WHV I HAVE THE UTMOST CONFIDENCE IN DR. J. H. BCHENCK AND HIS MEDICINES.

During the part two years my mother and brother have died of Consumption. I waa myself quite unwell moat or tbla time, and when, ahortlr after their death, I was attacked with cough and severe hemorrhagee, I naturally concluded that 1 waa destined to go with the aame disease. I Im- mediately consulied a physician, who made a ipe- eialty or lung disease*. After examining me.heaald that he thought my lungs were sound, and that I Would soon recover. In leas than aweck after this 1 had another severe hemorrhage. Thinking that my physician had mado a mistake In my case I consulied another doctor, lie thought my lung* affected, and prescribed for ma for a long tlme> I got no better under his Ireatment, but generally worse* My cough was very bad, my appetite entirely gone; I bad aerere pain In my right side and for month* I did not sleep more than two or three hours |U B night. My tongue waa heavily coated and I had a bad taste in my mouth. I bad the headache almost all ibe time.

Feeling that something mu.<l be done I at last concluded to consult with l»r Sehenck, the phyH- elan who, i ,rlll,k. , 0.vc good reawn to believe, to bo the best in the treatment of lung disease I Went to his oiT.cc lu Boston, and waa examined Ho found my left lung qtilts badly diseased and my liver acrioiudy affected. nc told mo that I could bo cured if i would follow hla directions. Of course I consented to do so, ,nd I very soon saw that my confidence in his ability was well

THE SCIENTIFIC TEST. Royal Baking Powder Absolutely Pure

and "Wholesome.

The following reports from the Government chemists and others equally well known who have, from time to time, made tests of the various baking powders of the market to ascertain their true value and character, are evidence impartial, scientific, and positive, of the absolute purity and wholesomeness of the " Royal," and of its superiority over all others as a perfect leavening agent:

" I have tested a package of Royal Baking Powder which I purchased in the open market, and find it composed of pure and wholesome ingredients. It is a cream of tartar powder of a high degree of merit, and does not contain either alum or phosphates, or other injurious substances.

With a surprise equalled only by regret will the announcement be received by the community of the death of one of Its most promising young men. ex-president of the common council, Patrick F. Halle;. The s«d event occurred shortly after 6 o'clock Friday morning, at the residence of hla parents, &S1 Oak street, after an Ill- ness that had barely covered one week's time, lu November lam, Mr. HaUey wa* a sufferer from rheumatic fever, but he recovered from the disease sufficiently to resume business, althouffh it Is now be- ttered that then wen aown tha seeds of the fatal malady, typhoid pneumonia, which ha* been *o summary aod Impera- tive In Its call.

Mr. Helley was born In this city on the 27th of March. 1859, being a week or two less than twenty-seven years of age. When very young be removed with MB

family to Framiogham, and subsequently to Natlck, where be posaed through the several grades of public school life, and graduated with honor* from the high school. At the completion of hi* education, he waa called Into partnership with EiImuoil Halley and Thomas HetanesHy, grocers, In this city, and at hi* death hail nearly reached fourteen years of uninter- rupted connection with tb* Arm. Ardu- ous and burdensome as were hi* tuslness duties, Mr. Halley found time to supplement the acquirement* of his school days with extensive reading in various departments of literature and science, and for a considerable period had been regarded by « large circle of Intelligent people In which he moved as being a gentlemen of extensive knowledge and culture. In 188a, he was elected a member of Hie commou council, and filled tbe position there wltb such acceptance, that upon his re-election the year following, he waa mode president of that body. Although a year of extra work for the city government that portion of It which devolved upon Mr. Halley aa presiding officer of tbe lower board,was performed wlthsuch exceptional satisfaction, that at the close of Ida session, an unusually warm vote of thanks waa passed aud ordered to be en- grossed upon the records of the council. At tbe last state election, he received the democratic nomination for represent£- tlvc from the 20th district, but was defeated, and from that time ceaaed to be known In public. The death of a youug man of hla attainments and praiseworthy ambition Is sad. He was anxious to hon- orably advance himself In the world, and took every opportunity and precaution to make the war certain and safe. He never could be induced to take Intoxicating: drink, aud avoided the use of tobacco In all Its forms. Deceased was a trustee of the Central club, a member of Court Col- umbia of Foresters and had recently Join- ed the St. Mary's new Lyceum.

The funeral of the late Patrick F. Holly took place Monday forenoon, and was accompanied with ceremonies and marks of ri'speci of unusual Impress!vencas. From an early hour the stream of people seeking tbe last sad look at the remains was continuous, members of the vari< us organizations to which tbe deceased belonged appearing in regalia, or with hnilês of mourning. At nine o'clock, the body, enclosed In a handsome casket, with heavy silver trimmings, "was borne out from the family residence by the following pall bearers I Daniel J. Corcoran, president of the Central Club, Couocllmau M. F. Snl- llvsn, and Ex-Councllmen Thomas J. Mor- rlssey, and Richard D >yle, James Coyle and Mr.Thoma* A. Tomoaney. Members of deceased'* family, carrying the floral symbols of sorrow, followed. Mayor Simpson and Kx-Mayor Breeii headed a large delegation of the city governments of tbe present and post years, including Alderman Gage, Ex-A?dermcu Schonland, Fm-d and Bruce, and Councilman Abbott, Townaend, Burnham, Burckel, Campbell, Lane, McCarthy, McQueency, Murray and others, with Captain Merrow and Ex-Cltv Clerk Kane. Tbe members of t e Central Club, wearing white gtovea and rosettes

lurnlug, took their place next in Hue, and were succeeded by a large representation of Court Montgomery, A. O. F, About one hundred cltlsena closed the procession, which moved *lowly to St, Mary's Hall. The edifice wa* appropriately draped for the occasion, and was already nearly filled by friends of the deceased. The casket was placed on a cat- afalque In front of tha altar, and surrounded with lighted tapers. The flornl offerings were arrayed on tbe lid of the casket, "ml presented a really handsome grouping. A broken column, from ihc councilmen of 1884; cross, crown m d pillow, contributed by D. J. Corcoran; wreath and pillow, hearing the Inscrip- tion, "Our Nephew," from Edmund Ha- ley ; a cross in purple immortelles, from the Central Club; an appropriate design from Court Montgomery, A. O. F.; cross, from Miss Maggie Gsfluey, of HBverhlll; baskets and bouquets of flowers, from Miss l.izzle Sullivan aud Mrs. Carraber, were atnoug the most attractive in the display. Solemn requiem moss wo* celebrated, with Fr. OXOMM a* celebjant, and Fr. EcEvoy and Row anas deacon and s'nb-dcacon. The music sung on the oc-

m!) wa* selected from the Gregorian chant In the "Memorare," Mr. J. D. Ma- honey rendering, with mucli effect, the solos In the "De l>rofuIldl•.,, At the close of the mass, the prayee* for the dead were Intoned, and an opportunity offered the congregation to look at the body before Its final withdrawal from human view. The procession then re- formed onuidc tbe church, and proceeded to St. Mary's cemeterv, where ail that Is mortal or the late Patrick F. Halley wss deposited in the grave.

tobacco has a tendency to prolong life ;

one position is as nonsensical as the

T-. The salaries were the same as when

>i.u<-ation was last received from the

board, and the matter provoked some

usslon.

Councilman Lyall said he liellevcd It

was partly through his motlou that the

matter bad been referred hack to the wa-

ter board, he being then under the im-

sslon, which he found to be errneous^

that they would make a change. He did

not believe that any office within the fran-

clilse of the people of the city of Law-

rence entitled a man to a salary of 81&00.

Some ten years ago when tho price of

nearly every class of goods waa nearly

twice as high as now the superintendent

received but 91200. Now It was asked of

the common council and supported by the

board of aldermen that such a salary as

this should be paid, when the city was

laboring under a burden of dent, and

when the contested policy of the city

government was to practice economy.

At the last municipal election the people

said tney wanted au economical adminis-

tration, and yet In the face of this the

board of aldermen support the paying of

such exorbitant salaries. In Justice to

thejpeople in the present aspect of anal

wc have no right to grant this demand.

i 'r..] ri-i y Is depreciating. The Washing-

ton mills are Idle, the Lawrence woolen

wills soon will tie, and their valuations

must be lowered and less revenue in the

way of taxes be collected. Mr. Lyall

atatcd that he had been requested to ascertain the value of ible man's services, ami he fouud that he did not have

amount of labor to perform, either mental

or manual, of other men In the depart-

ments of the city who got less pay. Bis

work was not nearly as laborious as that

of the street commissioner or city engin-

eer. He found no fault with the officer,

but believed the salary asked was too

much. He proposed If the council non-

concur, to make an amendment that the

salary of the superintendent lie reduced

and that of the other officials remain as

reported bv the water board.

The council then, with hut one dissent-

ing voice, voted to nun-concur, and Coun-

cilman Lyall aiucuded as above, making

the salary of the superintendent, at the

suggestion of Councilman Lane, *I200per

annum.

lie fore the close of the meeting Coun-

cilman lllnchcliflc stated that he had

waived his right lu regard tu the pay of

the engineer of the water board, but h« found that the uffieers of that board had

been receiving pay according to last year's

rate. He asked the auitltur if that were

so, and the latter replied that It was.

Councilman Hlnchcllire then asked ho<

the committee ou accounts came to ap-

prove such bills. They were nald month-

ly and the hill would amount to 6*00.

'Old the committee on accounts overlook

a bill like that?"asked Councilman lllnch-

clifie. One of the committee on accounts

the part of the council statei' that he

supposed they would draw the salary

last year until It was changed.

Councilman Lyall moved that the com-

mittee on accounts, on the part of the

council, be Instructed to approve no mort

bills of the water board for the auperln

tendent until his salary had lieen definitely fixed by both boards and agreed to by

water board, The tnotlen was sec

onded aud passed with one or two din

senting voices, but It was doobted, antl

peudlng Its being put again some further

discussion took placn.

Councilman Sullivan thought the com-

mittee on accounts should not approve

bills until the salary was fixed. Ho

no reason why those who had voted

to reduce the salary of the superintendent

should not agree with this. It was only

ccusisteiicy.

Councilman O'Neill thought the bills

might be approved If they did uot exceed

the sums allowed by the common council.

.iiiiiiliniiii Cooney thought there was

some motive in attacking the superintend

ent In this way, and he should continue to

think so until the matter was explained

Councilman Lyall denied that so far

he was concerned there was any persoi

motive. He believed the superintendent

as receiving too much for the labor he

performed, and he was only looking aftet

the Interests of the city and the taxpay-

ers. Councilman Suulran wanted the mem- r from ward six tu uuderstaud that he

had no motive iu his action on the matter

ther than a due regard to the city's In-

terest. He believed the city had been

paying too much for bis services anil be-

lieved that the salary should be reduced.

After some further discussion the ques-

tion of Instructing the committee on ac-

counts to approve no more bills for the

superintendent's salary was called for

and passed eleven to six.

AN EXCITING CONTEST.

Friday evening at Matthes hall a wrest- ling ni.iii-li. l.run-ii-hii-.. style, best twe out of three falls for njio, occurred between James Kubinsun and John Cassldy. A very large number of spectators was present. Will Jordan acted as referee and Robinson was seconded by his father, Frank Hohinson. and Cassldy by John Itiley. At a. .to t in- wrestlers appeared upon the stage and took their positions. For tnirty live minutes the struggle was thoroughly exciting, the advantage being first with one and then with the other, until at the end of that time the first fall was won by Cassldy. The second bout was even more exciting than the first and was contested sharply by lioth wrestlers, but at the end of f!2 minutes Robinson won the second fall, the secoud bout had hardly begun when a quarrel arose between the two and Cat-sidy throwing Robinson upon a gas pipe put him on his back with terrific force, almost breaking the hitter's arm. The decision on the bout was reserved by the referee. This finished the contest, which was marked by considerable skill and science. While the second bout waa In progress the spectators became so excited that they crowded close about the wrestlers and Captain Kalley put a stay to the proceedings until he had cleared the stage of all but those persons properly there.

SUITS AGAINST THE CITY.

Two suits were wrought against the city

ill morning for damages for injuries re-

iltliig from defective sidewalks, and

Tils of attachment served, by Deputy

Sheriff Ilriggs. one by John Conway who

near St. Ann's church, In February, and

broke his leg* the other by Catherine

Daley, who fell on Chestnut street, op-

posite the Immaculate Conception church,

and broke her arm. Criminal negligence

on the part of the city In permitting the

lidewalks to remain In unsafe condition.

Is claimed, noth writs were made by

Col. John P. Sweeny, who Is counsel for

the plaintiffs, and the writs are returnable

at the June term of the superior civil court

Visit to the Jail.

Yesterday morning the first Jury serv-

ing si superior court was excused by

Judge Gardner, at the request of Sheriff

Derrick, at 10.30 o'clock, and on the Invi

tatlou of the latter visited the Jail. They

were shown through every department

and were very much pteassd with the ap-

pearance of everything, end on taking

their leave passed a vote of thanks to

Sheriff Henicfc. for his courtesy and kind-

ness. They returned at neon.

The trustees of the public library have

no reason to regret their prompt rcspense

to the people's request to open the library

on Sunday. Yesterday week when the

doois were unlocked to Sabbath patron-

age, the outlook for the experiment was

somewhat discouraging, 'he visitors being

few and tbelr stay of brief duration. The cause of thbj was Insufficient notice that

the privileges It offered were unknown to

the general public. The local newspapers

during the week, however, made the necessary announcement, and yesterday the

results proved with what eagerness cit-

izens of literary taste or desire for Infor-

mation were prepared to take advantage

of the boon offered them on the most

auspicious day of the week. Public libra-

ries were established mainly for those

who have none—and they represent the

multitude In every community who pre

serve life at the cost of six days' toll

The seventh was set apart for rest and

recreation, acd In these days, prollnc of

books and papers, both are secured In

reading. Thus It was shown on yester-

day that the opportunities offered were

grasped with comparative aridity,

Shortly before two o'clock, the library

was opened, .Miss No well taking charge of

the reading room, while Miss Seavcrus at-

te'i i<- : 1.1 the call for books. Before the

ladies had time to prepare for reception

the room was replete with attendants.

A rush waa made for the Sunday papers

but forbearance was never better exein

"Do you believe," asked the reporter of

one of the ladies In waiting, "that

opening of the library on Sundays might

lead to u.idue levity among the younger

element?"

"No, sir. You see those hoys," refer

ring to some twelve youths sitting along

the desks,—"they have been hero over an

"What class of works do they call

North Andover was passing along in the

vicinity of the base ball grounds It ran

over a man lying across the rails. The

car was In charge of conductor Jonathan

Cllley, and upon it at the time was officer

Taylor. As soon as the accident was dis-

covered the officer sent intelligence of

the matter to Captain Bailey and convey-

ed the victim Into the saloon of Michael

Donovan, near by. Capt. Bailey antl

Officer Donovan were soon at the

of the accident and on the return of the

car the Injured man was placed carefully

In the car atul taken Into the city, and

when Appleton street wss reached, Offi-

cers Shceily, Spauldlng and 8hea assisted

the other officers to place the victim on a

stretcher and convey him to the city hos-

pital. He was here attended by Dr. Ab bott, who after a careful cxamlnatioi

gave no hope of his living- From tin

first he was unconscious, and it had been

Impossible to ascertain his name orwherc

he belonged. At the hospital, an cxarol

nation of the man's clothes revealed a

pay envelope which contained something

over $30 and upon the envelope was found

the name of Maxwell Crawford

wore upon his person nine undershirts

and eleven pairs of drawers, while hi*

outside clothing was of dark mixed ma-

terial. It was evident that Crawford had

been drinking heavily, and It is supposed

that he was walking along the road and

fell upon the track, too stupefied to rise.

Di. Abbott found that the right leg was

broken in two places above the km e aud

at the ankle, the former Injury being a

serious wound from which the bone pro

jected several inches. There were injur-

ies about the left leg and the body. He

died at about an hour after midnight.

Crawford had been working In the Low-

er Pacific, but complained of the wages

and short time, and Tuesday left the city

In search of employment. He was t7

years of age and unmarried, but had two

brothers who reside at 52 Bailey street,

South Lawrence.

Company M. Inspection.

Monday evening occurred the state in

spectlon of Co. M., 8th Regiment, In their

armory In Suunders block. There were

present forty-four men and three officers.

The Inspecting officers were Col. Currier

and Capt. Hall, of the Second Brigade

staff and Maj. Copeland and Adjt.

Thomas, of the Eighth Regiment staff.

The arms and equipments were found ii

fine order, and the inspection was

thoroughly satisfactory to the Inspecting

officers. Following the Inspection the

company was put through the company

movements In fine shape by the two

lieutenants, under the supervision of Col.

Currier. The movements were executed

in excellent shape.and the company showed

the result of careful training. There was

a vast improvement over the inspection

of a year ago. The manual of arms was

then essayed, uuder Capt. Puchesncy

with commendable success; throughout

all the work of the company the evidence

of careful, painstaking drill was most ap-

parent. The company formed in two

lines facing each other, and were examined

by Col. Currier In regard to sentinel duties,

guard mounting, etc. The men proved to

be thoroughly posted In this direction,

answering the questions put without hesi-

tation. Taken altogether it was a good

showing for the company, and one that

argues well for a return to the high rank

once held by the company In the slate

militia. 1 ■ >■ * Inspection of Co. F.

The state Inspection of Co. F. occurred

Monday evening, in the company's armory

lu Brechin block. There were present 45

men and three officers, The inspecting

officers were Col. Rockwell of the gov-

ernor's staff, and Capt. George of the

Second Brigade staff. The inspection of

the armory, arms and equipments wss

eminently satisfactory. The first and

second lieutenants exercised the company

In the manual of arms, company move-

ments, and loading and firing. The com-

pany waa then formed In two files, facing

each other, and examined relative to

tlncl duty and guard mounting, after

which the books aud papers were Inspect-

ed and found In good conditlou. The

company showed to much better advan

tage than last year. Among those present

as interested spectators were Attorney.

A young man, named Raleigh, who said

he resided In Andover, states that while

attention of the roughs was called to the

approach of another victim, who turned

out to be Timothy Corbett of South Law-

reuce. They also set upon him, but had

considerable difficulty In placing him

ler their control. Corbett estimates his

loss at a dollar aid sixty cents. The lat-

John Sullivan, but before the latter arrlv

A New Ward for Lawrence.

The legislative committee on cities took

up Friday forenoon, the consideration

of project of dividing the city of Law-

rence Into seven wards instead of six.

Hon. Andrew C. Stone thought that the

city council should be given power to es-

tablish new wards when needed, and sub-

mitted a bill drawn for that purpose.

Councilman P, W. Lyall preferred that

the legislature should Interfere to the

extent of making it certain that there

should bo at least seven wards. Several

geutlemen from the district on the north

glde of the Splcket river, appeared to

urge the claims of the district to be made

a single and united ward.

Rills Extraordinary.

Ex-Supt. of Public property Flannagan

has presented to the committee on claims

a bill for Sign, the same being for the

use of stable for city horse, wagon etc.

for iilncty months, or seven years and a

half. The committee on accounts con-

sidered the matter at a meeting hefd

March 8, and laid It over. A member of

the committee said that the claim would

not be allowed and that no jury would

give a verdict for the plaintiff If n suit were brought to recover. Another bill

presented by Mr. Flanuagan claims thi sum or 911.40 for car fare from August 9, lt"J2, to April 14, 1HS4. Of this amount 910. IS was fur car fares between the dates ol August 9, 1S8S, and March 8, I--:;. It seems a most extraordinary thing that these hills were uot presented Ft the end of each year. The bill for car fares was also laid over. A memtier of the committee on accounts remarked this morning that there were more sharks try- lug to rob the city treasury than there were honest men In all the city endeavoring to get an honest living.

Superior Court.

In December, 18w«\ Tobias Cronln,

while working In the Washington Mills

was caught In a dnstlng machine and his

arm so badly mutilated as to require sm-

putaMon. Suit was brought to recover

damages, aud Tuesday the case was on

trial In the Superior court. The evidence

offered by the plaintiff was that he had no

experience In running the machine. That

the first he ever run it was on the day he

was Injured,and that the machine was

of order. That he #as put on the job to

take the place of a man who usually run

the machine, hut who was out, and that

he was using due care. The defence

claimed that the machine was In order,

that It was not a machine dangerous to

run, and that due care was not exercised.

The case was glveu to the Jury at 12.30

yesteiday afternoon, and after being out

three hours and a half they returned a

verdict for plaintiff in the sum of 93,000.

Simply Immense.

We believe lu all sincerity that It has

never beeu our pleasure to examine In this

city such an enormous line of nobby head

wear as that opened to-day by Hawes, the

hatter. Bound to outdo all previous ef-

forts which he has made, Mr. Hawes has

placed on his counters and literally piled

on the floors of his large establishment a

stock of the latest shades and styles in

spring hats, that we hove never seen ap-

proached lu this vicinity. You have only

to step In antl verify this statement for

yourself. The styles for the coming sea-

son require two or three entirely novel

shapes, and all of these in a huudred

shades and colors are Included In the

stock. The place Is In reality "a wilder-

ness of hats," and should be seen to be

appreciated.

Another Suit Against the City.

Notice of suit for damages against the

city was served upon the city clerk this

morning, by William Taylor, through his

attorney, Chas. A. DeCourcey, Esq. Tho

notice seta forth that on the 8th of

February, 1885, sahl Taylor fell In the

alley back of the city hall, between Apple-

ton and Pemberton streets, caused by ac-

cumulation of Ice and rubbish, aud by

which his arm was dislocated at the

FBOM ALL taccouots tho delegation of Ma»8flc'iu9ctla democrats who went *o WaabingtOD in force at lhe inauguration, with a alate all made up and lhe OIIJLTS all iiaicelled Out, are about Jfae moat disgruntled aat of men in tbla country. The* could ool; get within leeing distance of the throne, and came borne in a state of uodln- guised disgust.

THE QUESTION of the future supply for tlie relief funds of the Grand Army, now before n legislative committee, Is ooe of DO small importance, not Odly to the posts aud their dependents, but to the people of the entlie Common- wealth. For seventeen years tbe Grand Army of tbe Republic has been engaged In this work of sympathetic chanty, expending in that time, In Massachusetts, over $600,000. Dur- ing this period these funds have bean provided mainly by fairs, tbe financial success of which has been largely due to (he milk's held and prizes swarded. With the recently growing sentiment among the best people,—those whose friendship has always been warmly with this organisation, and the efforts to enforce strictly the provisions of the statutes against all kinds ni gamns ol chancw, tbe seriou-i queblion of how to provide for these rt-liel lands, stares the Grand Army in the face. There is no question but that this charity fa among the most carefully, economi- cally and judicioualy expended ol any in the state, and almost if not quite tbe whole amount would fall directly upon tbe cities aud towns, if not disiilbuied by this organization. An old soldier has an instinctive aversion to beats and no man can so soon delect them, while by their army records and system of correspondence between posts, the bums are sure to be known as would be impossible in case of ordinary poor authorities. Then, again, there Is something repulsive to tbe average patriotic heart against msking ordinary paupers of the old veterans who are in need, aud they can confide their wants to their comrades with a little less feeling of personal humiliation than to city or town authorities, while tbe work of investigation and of expenditure is carried on by the Grand Army with absolutely no expense,— no salaried oflloers, all a work of love. We believe therefore, that tbe amount paid out by this organization, is so much, surely so much, andjprobably much more, taken from tbe ordinary burdens of municipal treasuries. A bill is before the legislature, and there should be no question as to Its pawagc, to permit cities and towns to make direct appropriations to the relief funds of Grand Army Posts; were this to become law, we believe that the several governments would promptly make the needed appropriations, and that it would not ouly be a patriotic, but emiuentiy Judicious and economical expenditure, settle the mooted question of lotteries as tbe Christian people wish it, and relieve tbe Grand Army of tbeir great burden of immense effort to secure lunds by appeals to tbe public, in addition to tbe gratuitous work of careful distribution.

A lady snd gentleman were invited into the dark cabinet, and soon came out again tc'.llng startling stories of spirit farms and kissing. Another couple entered, when the nolsee Inside were of an Itogether different character. A table

was overturned and the lady emerged, looking as If she bad had a struggle. Aft- er telling startling stories about the spirit forms aud the kissing, tbe medium rame out, followed by the gentleman who had been In therewith Mm. He immediately addressed the audience, saying that he was no longer a Spiritualist, for this was an infernal fraud. Then be dived Into the cabinet, from which, tn aplte of the medium's eflurts to lead him off, he brought back a long-handled paddle covered with canton flannel. "This Is the kisser," said he amid yells sad laughter.

At once tbere waa great coufusion and shoots from all overtne house, lie went

.)■ that on entering the cabluct bu 1 to place one of nla hand ■ on the

medium's head. He felt tbe medium move Ills knees and release the loops about his wrists. Then he thrummed tha guitar; then took th? paddle and touched the gentleman on tbe cheek and lips with It, making a klsxing sound as be did ao. The gentlemen seixed him, hat, being a powerful man, and the lady interfering, the medium sUcimb'd In replacing his hands In the loops. Tbe whole affair was cheat, he said. There was no Bertha King.

When he tiad stopped speaking the police officers came forward and arrested tin- medium and his partners on, a warrant previously taken out against them for ob talulng money under false pretences. The money at the box office waa secured and tbe apparatus seized.

The only voice raised In defence was by a tall woman who bad been first In the cabinet autl who stood up and shouted ■■I know enough about kissing to know the difference between a bathing swab and a genuine salute. I tell you ladles and gentlemen, I was kissed, If I die for Shouts of laughter silenced her further testimony.

G. W. CarleU)D, the well known New York book publisher, says in a private Dote from t'le Yacht Club at St. Augnsiine : "I came down here three weeks sgi to stay smong the alllgrttors and oranges of Poneo de Leou uotil about April 1, and ao ci- cape the blizzards and snow storms of New York. But the climate here this wiuter has been wretchedly variable ; one day hot enough for straw hats, whits sun umbrellas and iced lemonade, and the next dsy cold enough to freeae out every stockholder in the Consolidated Gas Company or New York City- Here is a Florida Uem for the Southern weather department of some of the valuable New York Journals : An entire Ismily waa froacn to daaih in St. Augustine yes- terdsy picking strawberries."

The lloaion Transcript tells the following story of the late mistress or the White House; At her reception two weeks ano, among others who were presented lo her by Marshal Mc- Michael, the master of ceremonies, was Dr. M«.ry Walker. This nonde- script personage, wearing light trou- sers and a little cost aud carrying a cane, presented a most grotesque and ridiculous figure, utterly out of keeping with the surroundings. Mrs. McElroy spoke a word or two to bar rather unexpected guest; and. ss it ao hsppened, tbe next person that was presented to her was a Miss Mann. To her Mrs. McElroy made the neat reixark, 1 have Just neen presented to a woman who would like to be a man. I am pleased, now to meet a Maun who ia content to remain a woman."

Tl CHEMIST Of OH BROOKLYN BOARD OF HEALTH versus

THE ROYAL BAKING POWDER.

From a clirmicul examination I have made of cans of CLEVELAND'S SUI'LKIOR BAKING POWDEB and ROYAL BAKING POWDER, purchased by myself In open market, X arrive at the following reaultst

CLEVELAND'S BAKING POWDER Is made of very pure materials, and Is entirely free from Alum, Ammonia, Terra.. AMm, or any adulteration whatever, and I recommend It as a healthful, effective and perfectly reliable baking1 powder.

Tho ROYAL BAKING POWDER CONTAINS AMMOKIA, AND AS THIS DRUG IS NOT WHOLLY EXPELLED FROM THE DOUGH 131 THE BAKING PROCESS, and us most medical authorities agree as to the Injurious effects resulting from the continued use of Ammonia, its use in food mhoultt be strongly condemned. CLEVELAND'S BAKING POWDER evolves more carbonic acid gas than the ROYAL BAKING POWDER, and it Is, In eoutfequence, more economical to housekeepers.

Tho First Mrs. Adam.

Another lllunlon of history has been destroyed—gone to Join th« chcrlxlietl legend of John Smith and Pocalioiitai, Franklin aud the kite, Itoland ar.d Oliver, Bel and the Dragon, and to many othei articles of clilltlllkc faith. It in probably knowu to Hebrew ncholara and other* Tutlite, that Eve, "(l» mother ol all lit

tng," was only number two, our great ancestor bavin;; picvhmsly been married to a lady WIIOHC maiden name watt * lull. But It U commonly supposed that Adam came a bluahing and totally Inex- perienced bridegroom to in- match with Eve. Ket-eut explorations by a Turkish conveyancer, who waa Hearchliiir tltlea to Home riparian rights on the rivers Hidde- kcl and Euphrates. In Asia Minor, result etl In the discovery of 1 palimpsest which being, after great care and labor, deelp' ered), proved to be the orlijinal marriage Mttltaant Tails establislies the fact of the marriage 'eymitl a reason, able doubt.

The subsequent events, however, are still buried in a mystery wilch will probably never be cleared. How lung Mr. and Mrs. Adam lived together, and whether they were sepirated by death or divorce, we shall never kt.ow. It It. scarcely probable that Adam ever told lils second auytlil.ig about bis th >t yen ture, and aa Eve la described as tin 'mother of all living," there were, o: course, no neighbors to give It awav And so InHplte of all the knowledgi she acquired by following the advice t>; the serpent, she probably Went to her own flrt,t claas funtral In the blissful faith that she was the rlmt and only, that Adam, (not having had a mother,) had never had a chance to compare her epph plea with those of any other housekeeper, and she could look forward with joyful anticipation to a re-united yoke in heaven.

Of courae, we might speculate upon the fato of the bride of Adam's firsi youth. It Is ptirslble that she ran awav into the land of Nod and fell asleep, anil hat) a rib extracted and converted Into a helpmate. For it la certain that years afterwards, Cain, the eldest sou by the second n.arrlage, having got into dlfflc il- ty with the Kden police, fled to Nod, and the very next thing we hear of him, 1 as tbe head of a family there. Why may not his wife have been a descendant of his father's HIM? Let that pass, however, there are no reliable facta In the case of LUteth, beyond her wedding, but the discovery of this circumstance wlh cause a shock to many romantic mlnd» who never have suspected Adam of bcli g a gay widower, or worse yet.—Pr dence Journal.

She Wants 9100 fop her Banff. - » Miss Mary Motley of Allegheny, until a

few days ago wo c her heavy blonde hair in a hang, of which she was exceedingly proud.

She wfl» struck by some object which wns hurled through the air, and which severed her bangs from her fore- head, leaving her hair ragged and thin at that place. She lias brought suit against the gas company, giving the aoove is her ground of complaint, and laying her damages for the loss of her bang at 8100.

FROM P. TURNER, Jr., BINQHAMPTON, H, V.

MEBSRS. J. H. ScnKXCE ASON, Philadelphia. Gentlrmt.n.—I have concluded that it Is

my duty to write you in regard to the great benefit I hare received by the use of Dr. Scbenck's medicines. One and * half years ago I was very sick with what my friends and myself believed lo be Consumption of the Lunjrs. The discasu betran with a heavy cold, its wnrst symptom being a dry, hackinrr cough, which wo* utmost continuous night and day. ;•■ ■ .11 after this I began raising a thick yellow matter. Being exposed to all kinds of weather, by working at my trade, 1 caught additiiriial (told and crew worse, until I was obliged to eiv- up nil work. I at this tints had terrible paint in my lung*, and was soon ntt.tcked with severe night-sweats. I tried nil tho cough remedies advertised, I believe, before I heard of your remedies. They were first brought to my notice by reading your book on "Consumption and its Cure."

I used all your medicines; that is, the Man- drake Pills, Seaweed Tonn mid Pultnonio Syrup- I felt their beneficial eti'eets from the Li rat. They gave ma strength and they gave me appetite, and in a very short time my cough was looser, and soon after disappeared lli.i.'.'.irr. I begun to giin flesh, too, and in

lm course of two mouths from beginning their use, I was very near well. 1 am now entirely v.ell, and, believe me, very thankful that I found ymir medicines and took them in time to save my life. I shall lie pleased to have any one call on tne in regard to my case.

Yours truly, P. TURNER., JR.,

No person possessing ordinary powers

Could be offered than that of the llrm of

Btckni-ll Bros.

counters no man has received a profit on

them, the benefit of whi'-n goes to tba

consumers. Those of our readers who are tired of paying the prices asked for

cuatom work would do well to examine the One suits and spring overcoats this

Arm are preparing for the spring trade. There Is, and always was, a demand for

a good honest article, made and trimmed In a substantial manner at a moderate price, and Blcknell Bros, are determined

to meet that demand. Prove to your own satisfaction that thia Is ao by visiting this

firm and examining the quality of the trlumlngs they are uaing In their Una

good* for the coming season. They claim tn be the only clothing house In New

England which manufactures only for

their own retail trade. This brings them Into competition with no one and euables

them to trim their cur incuts with such value as the quality of the goods requires

and as will do justice to the garments and give satisfaction to the wearer.

One look at the east wlnduwof Blcknell Bros, shows the people a few of the styles

from which they are manufacturing their spring stock, and in proof of the above

a a convincing argument.—

I the Mil Powders. " Royal" the only absolutely pure baking pow-

der made—Action of the New York State Board of Health.*

Under tho direction of the New York State Board of Health,

eighty-four different kinds of baking powders, embracing all tho

brands that could be found for sale in the State, were submitted

to t ■Lamination and analysis by Prof. C. F. CHANDLEB, a Mem-

ber of the Stato Board and President of tho New York City

Board of Health, assisted by Prof. EDWABD G. LOVE, the well-

known late United States Government chomist.

The official report shows that a largo number of the powders

examined were found to contain alum or lime; many of them to

■uch an extent as to render them seriously objectionable for use

in the preparation of human food.

Alum was found in twenty-nine samples. This drug is em-

ployed in baking powders to cheapen their cost. The presence

of lime is attributed to the impure cream of tartar of com-

merce used in their manufacture. Such cream of tartar was also

analyzed and found to contain lime and other impurities, in aome

samples' to tho extent of 33 per cent of their entire weight.

All the baking powders of the market, with tho single excep-

tion of "Royal'' (not including tho alum and phosphate powders,

which were long since discarded as unaafo or inefficient by pru-

dent housekeepera) are made from the impuro cream of tartar of

commerce, and consequently contain lime to a corresponding

extent.

Tho only baking powder yet found by chemical analysis to

be entirely freo from lime and absolutely pure is tho " Royal."

This perfect purity results from the exclusive use of cream

of t?.rtar specially refined and prepared by patent processed

of the N. Y. Tartar Co., which totally remove the tartrato of

lime and other impurities. The cost of this chemically pure

cream of tartar is much greater than any other, and on ac-

count of this greater coat is used in no baking powder but

tli* "Royal."

Prof. LOVE, who made the analyses of baking powders for

tho New York State Board of Health, as well as for the

Government, says of the purity and wholesomeness of "Royal":

"I have tested a packago of 'Royal Baking Powder' which

I purchased in the open market, and find it composed of pure

and wholesome ingredients. It is a cream of tartar powder of

a high degree of merit, and docs not contain either alum or

phosphates or any injurious substances.

"E. G. LOVE, PH.D.,"

Commission is approaching completion, and the most importnnt duties remaining to tin' Board, are in the adjustment of land claims and settlement ol

controversies involving legal considerations. Mr. Bell's tastes and talents lie in just this direction ; he has made

a careful nod painstaking examination of the legal points involved, and Irom this time forwnrd Ids nervices will be invaluable to the city. If he Is now

review* of tbe past financial condition of the country, referring to seasons when prices have fa!'cn below the cost of production, observes thai by means of new Inventions, Improved machlu- ory, reduced wages and other causes, the cost was lowered aud the product was again made remunerative. It recommends as the best method of resisting the evil that wu should strive to lower the cost of production. Our exchanges almost daily contaiu comparative statements of prices in the seventies and eighties which have changed almost imperceptibly, but even at the low (inures which are offered we seem to he no better off. In 1870 granulated Buyar was 13 cents per pound ; cost of refining 4 cents per pound; in 1884 it was 5 7-8 cents, costing 1-2 cent per pound, and this is a good basis on which to reckon the fall in prices. Wheat which 11 years ago sold at $1.29 last year, Bold for 82 cents. Fish has made the same decline ; also canned, cotton and woolen goods, and no one has suggested any possible practical means of relief xcept the horrors of war, which pub-

lic sentiment is loth to contemplate, and which no nation seems to be equal to bringing about without forcing a quarrel with barbarians. Enlightened nations are inclined to peace and only 'the heathen rage."

Kirk Hoses, jr., lives at the corner of Parker and Audover streets, In Sooth Ijiwrence. iJlroctly opposite stood, here- iifore, the Packard school, built In In7», it a coat to the city of |K,000. 8ln.ee ben there have been Improvements made

upon It until the total coat was probably not leas than 4VW,000. Wednesday night Just

fore 10 o'clock, Mr. Hoses saw what appeared to be an unusual light In the

hool building, apparently In the basement. Investigating he found It to be tire and he quickly rang In an alarm from box 28. In an Incredibly short time the portion of the are depart meat whose duty it was to answer that alarm was on the spot and working with a will, althoogh the exact locatiou of the body of the Are was difficult to determine. Their efforts to queuch the Homes had lltu-em-ct, such headway had the flames acquired, aud shortly after a second alarm was rung In. summoning the entire department. The blaze had by this time penetrated to the upper portion of the build ng and led greedily upon the dry .Under-like woodwork. Huge volumes of smoke rolled upward, and In a few minute* the flames burst through the roof and lit up the scene far and near, castlug a sickly glare OB the night. The Are department poured streams of water upon the bluing editli but still the flames crackled and roared with terrible cflect In the dry wood, and did Its fearful work regardless of the labors of the firemen. The showers of sparks flying on thu wluda presented a scene of brilliancy equal to a Fourth of July Illumination, and promised, uuleas extraordinary efforts were uied, to com- municate the flames to the Party 8t. Meth- odist Episcopal church. To prevent ibis the firemen placed ladders upon this building aud took every precaution necessary for Its safety. Meanwhile the flames upou the Packard school building we lug their work, eagerly catching on to every piece of woodwork and spar untl ot o few minutes past teno'clock the roof, deprived by the Irs of its Kiipport, fell in with a crash and rgaln the flames lit up the sky with their lurid glare. Until nearly eleven o'clock the (lory element did ts baleful work, when thu western wall ,of Hi. building fell In, cidangerlng the

if the brave tlreai-Mi who stood in ..II in I doing what lay In t'jeir powei queuch the devourlug flames. Not long after the Arc was gotten uiutr control. At 1 o'clock the flames had been extinguished and the weary firemen \ called.

In the Packard school bnlldlog, which was of brick, two stories high, there were eight rooms, four upon each floor, and capable altogether of accommodating about *00 scholars. Thera were four rooms given up to the pupils In the grammar grades and the remaining four were devoted to the middle grades. Last mouth Mr. Albert P, Doe, ol Marbk-head:

elected to take the place of Mr. Frederick W. Shntiuck, who resigned his principal- ship to accept a similar position at Man Chester, N. H. Uuder him there are eight teachers: Miss Klla V. Kastman having charge of the fourth and iifth grammar grades; Miss Jessie M. Dou, sixth and seventh grammar grades; Miss Teresa 8. McCabej seventh and eighth grammar grades; Miss LillianK. Larrabee,flrst and third middle grades; Miss 8adle W. Proctor; second middle grade; Miss Sarah E. Webster, third middle grade; Miss Margaret (i. Hcanlon, fourth middle grade; Miss Fannie ltobblns, assistant.

There are various conjectures as to t he origin of the Are, one of which Is that it caught from the heating apparatus which

located in the basement. From the fact that the flames were first seeu In thla part of the buildlug this appears the most plausible theory.

The work of the police, under Capt. Bailey, was greatly appreciated, the crowd of people being kept back from the scene of the Are aud allowing the Bremen a chance to work without hindrance.

Although the Packard school house has cost something near «-'■'■."IKI. beside provements since made, it is estimated by competent builders that it can be re placed for 81.1,Out) ot the present time, ai labor, building material and everything to bo used In Its construction are much cheaper than when the building was crect- d In 1872. Much of the brick, ols.>, In

the building, can be utilized lu constructing the inner wall of a new school building, the foundations are uninjured and many other considerations will greatly reduce the expense of rebuilding.

There was no insurance upon the building, the policy In the Niagara Company issued lu May, 1878, having expired In

77, and never having been renewed. In theabsenceof Supt. Ilrewstcr, Mayoi

Simpson and commltteemeu Sauuder* and McCormlck are making arrangements fsr Ihe continuance of the schools. It |s un- lerstoou that tlp-ec rooms can be accommodated In the Parker street church, and doubtless matters will be so arranged aud other convenient places found for the other schools.

At SI. Mary's School. m

The pupils assembled Tuesday afler- iii ">ti at two o'clock, In St. Mary's hall, for the purpose of general exercises Jn commemoration of the St. Patrick's day Pieces were read and sung appropriate to the day. One very pretty feature was the efforts on the drum of little Johnnie Morrlsscy, aged six years, who handled the instrument like a veteran. Thomas and -b.lui Leonard gave some fine selections on the plauo, and Daniel Barry gavi harmonica solos. The piano accompani- ments were played by Miss Lola Leonard, a member of the school.

The largest audience that ever convened in St. Mary's hall, was present Tuesday evening. A fine entertainment was gtveu, consisting of stcreopticou views of Irish scenery, and portraits of distinguished Irish patriots. Miss O'Kecfle gave interesting descriptions of the pictures. There was an operetta song by the Misses 1)1^. nam, Messer, and Lcary, Mr. Thomas J. Murphy and a select chorus, and piano ploying by the Leonard brothers, and Mi Williams of Cauada. The entertainment was for the benefit of St. Mary's school and a large sum must have been realized from the sale of tickets.

St. Patrick's day was properly observed Tuesday* by tho Irish societies of the city, the usual parade being dispensed with.

The Hibernians, Plv. 8, rendered a literary program In Haundera' hall, after which dancing was in order. The attendance was large and the occasion thoroughly enjoyable, Refreshments were served and the festivities kept up until the small honrs of the night.

The Irish Bencvoleut society, together with Invited friends, observed tho occasion by a banquet In their hall, after which toasts were proposed and responded to most gracefully. Vocal mnalc was rendered by a large number of those present and the pleasure of the occasion was greatly augmented thereby. Kx-aldor- man Ford lu closing the exercises made remarks upon the alms ami objects of the society.

The stockholders of the Lawrence Base Hall association, pursuant to a call by the secretary, met at the basement of the clty ball Wednesday. A proposition was sub- miiti-d and accepted to lease the grounds toj P. liurnhom of Portland, for 9300 for the sesaon, subject to certain restric- tions. The meeting was rather a stormy

and much 111 feeling was evidenced among the shareholders. It has transpired that the stock of the association was Is- sued with the assurance that the organl-j /ation was "Incorporated under tha laws of Massachusetts" which. In fact, was not the case. Much dissatisfaction was expressed at the attlon of the offlclalsof the association In leasleg the grounds from the Lssex Company in their own name.

A Slight Blaze.

The fire department Monday was called by an alarm from box 10, located In the Arlington mills, to a house on Chalmers street, number 17, occupied by Isaac Hall. When the department rived at the house the fire was discovered to be down stairs, in a room used as kitchen, and was blazing In a wood-box and hail begun to catch hold of the man- tie and trlmmlngi) back of a kitchen stove. It was speedily extinguished with damages not excooding *3. The funnel from the stove was very Bbort, aud after mak- ng a turn entered the chimney on a leva with the top of stove. Directly under Death was placed the wood-box, and as a brisk fire was burning In the stove it Is probable that the wood In the box became so heated as to igultd The occupanta of the house were all up stairs at the time of the fire, which was first noticed by Win. A.Andrews, who reported It at the Arlington mills, where au alarm was rung In.

Mrs. Martha Shove, wife of Augustus J. Shove, died Tuesday afi<*fttoon at her residence on Iloverlilll street, of gaa- trlc fever after au illness of three weeks Tbe news of the death of this estimable lady will be a shock to her friends, notwithstanding the fact that for many years she has fought against disease, anil by her indomitable will aud courage raced physical Ills that would have overcome the stoutest heorls. She was o lady who made friends everywhere, attracting by the grace and beauty of her character and her gentle ami rellned nature, aud at taclilng them closer by her unfailing kindness and sympathy which always prompted her to good deeds and cheering words for the poor, sick or unfortunate. Her loss will be keenly felt by the mony who Lave learned to love her and who will feel as if they could not spare hei from the circle which she has adorned for so many happy years. -Tier rare Christian character was shown through nut her Illness, and her last moments were made happy by a calm trust in Hi: who had beeu her stay through all tl past years of sickuews and suffering whk she has eudured.

She leaves a husband, and son, Frank A. Shove, now a resident of Maiden.

FRANK P. CIIOCKKH, brother of tho lvte Charles P, Crocker, formerly of the AMKRK'AN, died In New York, on the thirteenth, instant, after a short Illness. Mr. Crocker was a son, we believe the young- est, of Moses C. Crocker, Esq., for many years a resident of I-awrenec in the early days; Frank became a priuter, and removed with his parents, some years ago, to Vinelaud, New Jersey, where, for time, he published a newspaper. For five or six years past he has been In the publication department of Scrlbner Co., New York. He was of modest, re- tiring disposition, sincere, faithful and

: made warm friends wherever be was known. He was the sixth sou who has died from the family j he leave a widow and one son i, tho Interment was on Monday, at Halifax, i„ tl.ia ataU, wb-r his parents formerly resided.

CUT. IlKMtv Ciifm-ini.L, of Concord, N. II., who has four brothers. John and others, residing In this city, died at Con- cord, N. IL on Wednesday, at the agu of flfty-one. Capt. Churchill was a veteran of the late war, and his death originated from a singular accident; some months ago. he broke his leg, while pulling off his boots, aud the limb being improperly set, a bone disease began to develop Itself, finally resulting in death. It Is thought that the limb has become affected bafo c the accident from disease contracted during his army service; he was at the time of his death, 'local null agent at Concord.

Tuesday afternoon occurred the death of Mr, John Bradley, au old resident of this city, at his late residence, 206 Osk street, after on illness of about ose month,

was 56 years aud 8 months old at the time of his decease. He was the father of Michael, James W., John and Patrick Bradley, all well known In this city. John arrived from Havana, yesterday, just lu time to attend the funeral, which took place In the) forenoon, from St. Mary's church, and Interment was In the Immac- ulate Conception cemetery.

In tioortl of aldermen Monday a pe- lon for abatement of sewer assessment

was presented to the board by Lee, Blackburn 4 Co. When the company was connected with the main sewer last year they were assessed glfssi by the city government. Col, John 1'. Sweeney appeared for the petitioner. He suld he

as aware of the trouble the Lee, Black- burn company bod from the fact that there had been no system of drainage In that locality. For some years they had used the brook for that purpose. Parties after a time objected and they were denied the use of It within a certain space. When the matter wos taken Into court the petitioners were ordered to build o box drain to connect with the brook low-

mn, and below the laud of Mr. F.ll- ood. At that time the city talked of

putting In a sewer through that section, but it was not completed In the time named by the court for the company to build a drain, and they built a box drain. Soon after, tlie city put in a sewer. The sew-

was a great accommodation to them but they thought the assessment dispro- portionate and excessive. The whole cost of the sewer through that locality, and ii drained the Land of a number of persons, was fl4,000 and Lee Blackburn & Co. were assessed »1000 of the amount. In addition It cost them about vOOo to build a sewer from their works to the Lawrence line. This made the total cost to theiu JlfiOO or more. The petitioners lived in Methuen and would like to continue the use of the sewer. They would be satisfied If the assessment was abated t)300. In reply to a nuestlon Col. Swee- ney stated that there had been no agreement with the former city government that I-ee, Blackburn & Co. would pay #1000 of the cost of the aewer.

The petitioner and his counsel then withdrew, and city engineer Marble was asked what the proportion of the chemical company's assessment would be; he stated that it would Ire 9600 or over. The sewer, he said, was built at least five years sooner than it would otherwise have been, for the sake of accommodating I^ee, Blackbiitn & Co.

Alderman (lage stated the employes of the company all lived In the city and were paid good wages, averaging from |1.50 to *'.b0 per clay. He thought it policy to foster small industries.

Alderman (.owing moved that the assessment be abated one fourth and the motion was seconded by Aldcrmau Gage and unanimously passed.

Sweet Things.

"Sweet things are very bad for von, dear," said a fond mother to her 6-year old boy, who bad the end of a fast waning stick of candy In his mouth.

'•And is sweet things bad for papa, too?" asked the innocent child, releasing the stick from his mouth for only an In- stant.

"Yes," said the msther. "I thought so," replied the boy, as the

last end of the stick disappeared. "Why did you think so, my boy?" "Because be always goes out when you

POWERFUL MEDICINE —inr—

BAKING POWDER. This certifies that I have examined samples of

Cleveland's and the Royal Baking Powders, purchased by myself of grocers in Burlington, and that I find CLEVELAND'S BAKING POWDER IS COMPOSED OF PURE AND HEALTHFUL MATERIALS, properly compounded; while the ROYAL CONTAINS AS AN ADULTERATION OR IMPURITY AN AMMONIA COMPOUND. The use of Ammonia compounds in such a preparation I regard as injurious, as they are powerful medicines and do not serve as food in any way. The Royal, contrary to the representation of its manufacturers, contains Tartrate of Lime.

I find, moreover, that Cleveland's Baking Powder is of considerably greater strength than the Royal both samples being equaiiy fresh.

A Former Lawreiiee Han Arrost- ed for Bmbegslement.

"Adospalch from Chicago, 111., says: Frank Atkins, aoparlntondrnt of lbs Drl-jliton Cotton Manufacturing Companj' la lu a fair way of going to the pt>mu-n. 11;ir\. Tli.-es days ago the trt-aaurer of Mi,' company swors out a warrant for At klu'.i urrt'ttt, ctiATglog him with having •tabesiLsd thu sum of #7500. Atkins wtu> »r-i I'ltt-il and brought Into court yesterday, Tin- charge against Atklna is that lie mil aii|iruprlated the money which pa*i*ied throngs bis tiands while he was acting lo thti capacity of superlnteudcnt. lu re turnlu,: his reports monthly, he made the -nil", much smaller than they mill., were, putting the difference In his pocket. ni-ii mliiiil to liii Income by doctoring the salary rolls. He was led to steal through his paaslon for stock gambling, fie dealt as extensively as his means Allowed, wu never ituccessful.

Alklns was formerly a resident of this city, being employed in the Washlngtoi mills In this city ss superintendent. While hen* he made many friends and was well llk'd by the mill officials. He was very pk-aalng In hi* address, finely educated iiinl a good manufacturer. Hu la married but hat> no children. It Is stated that even when he lived In tlds city ho something In the stock buainoss, but l.l« position gave him no opportunity fur cmbeiiliug as at Chicago. The news of his disgrace wan a great surprise to his friends in I hit city, who bed the highest opluion of his integrity and honesty. When Atklus left here he went to some town In Connecticut, nesr Norwich and worked In a mill there. This was some four years ago, and not long after he left Connecticut, soonsfter which he went to Chlcsi*o and entered the employ of the Brighton Cotton Manufacturing com puny, where he remained until arrested for embcz/.lenient.

On Saturday, Jesse Uourbeau, employ* cd lu the l'lckerronmof the Upper .'settle

mills, while running a picker mschlue, gut ids hand caught in the machinery and

horribly lac-rated. The greater part of the hand waM cut off be.'ore It could be

extricated. The Injured man was taken

to the city hoepltal, and Dr. Chamberlal: and Dr. Dj.ua called, who were ohllged to

amputate the hand at the wrist Joint, on

account of Its being so badly lacerated At last accounts the patient was doing

well. The case Is one which should excite aympatliy from the fact that the insi extrt-uiely poor, and ha* a wife and Hiaull children dependent upon him for »upport.

The following Letters were published In The Christian at Work, tho leading relig-it

paper of New York, some months since. That they attracted great attention is proved

by the following editorial notice which soon

oiler appeared in that, paper

"The publisher of Tho Christian at Work has been asked if lhe letters publiahed in tbi

MESSRS. J. U. SCIIEXCE A SON, Philadelphia. Gentttmm:—I have concluded that it Is

my duly to write you lu rejrard to tho great benefit I have received by the use of Dr. Schenck'a medicines. One ami a-half years ago I wai very Hick with what ray friends and myself believed to bo ConMimjition of the Lu'nt-s. The diacose began with a heavy cold, its worst svinpiom being a dry, hacking cough, which iv 1- almost continuous night and day. Soon filter this I beritn raising a thick yellow matter. Being exposed to all kinds of weather, by working at my trade, I caught additional mild uml grew worse, until I was obliged to give up all work. I at this time bod terrible pains ia my lungs, and was soon attacked with severe 11 iirht-sweats. I tried all the cough remedies advertised, I believe, before I heard of your remedies. They were first brought to my notice by mailing your hook on " Consumption and its Cure."

I used nil your medicine*; that Is, the atsa- draks Pills, Seaweed Tonls and Pulmonia Syrup. I felt their beneficial effects from the first. They gave me strength and they gave me appetite, and ia a very short time my cough was looser, and soon after disappeared altogether. I I. -.■ m to gain flesh, too, and in the course of two mouths from beginning their nse, I was very near well. I am now entirely well, and, believe me, very thankful that I found your medicines and took them in time to mm my life. I shall be pleased to nave any one call on rac In regard to my 01

DR. J. II. ScttEKCK. Dear Sir:—I havo been very sick, and was

told by several of the best pfajatoaM or this elty that I had Consumption, nnd could live but a short time. 1 was advised by a friend to consult you, which I did.

I can hardly say that I was Bret attacked with the diaease ia 1880, for my lungs bad been weak for many yean previous te lhi», and I would quite often havo severe pain in my breast, if I took tbe least cold or exerted myself too much In any way. I grew worse, my cough became very bad; I had night-sweat* so severe that my bed, through the night, would be as wet as though water had been thrown over me. I waa continually railing b!ood and larg* quantities of offennlve matter from my tu.ii., and at last had all the woli-known symptom* ot Consumption in it* hut ctage*.

No person possessing ordinary powers of observation, who has given a moment's thought to the course parrtued by our local merchants and the results of the same, will for a moment doubt that those who have succeeded best ha.vc advertised most. Probably no better Illustration or convincing proof of the truth of this assertion could be offered than that of the tlnn of Blcknell Bros.

To condense the cause of this firms'success in as few wurds as possible we believe the whole story can be told In these few words, untiring diligence, honesty of purpose, liberal and convincing advertising. They drive their business aud keep no drones about their establishment. The manner in which they treat their customers la worthy of being copied by tho lining generation, and the telling points In advertising ace humorous originality, and ever-cllliglng te facts. Of course a careful watch of the minor details of a retail buslnuss has much to do with Its success but we relieve the above to be the foundation to good results.

In connection with the above we wouU ) add that manufacturing their own g Is */, ,,'h has helped largely to bring about desired remits.

goods. Another very important item Is, that when their goods are placed on their counters no man has received a profit on them, the bencflt of which goes to the consumers. Those of our readers who are tired of paying the prices asked far custom work would do well to examine the flne suits and spring overcoats this firm are preparing for the spring trade.

There Is, and always was, a demand for a good honest article, made and trimmed In a substantial manner at a moderate price, and Bicknell llros. are determined to meet that demand. Prove to your own satisfaction that this Is so by visiting this Ann and examining the quality of the trimmings they are using in their line goods for the coming season. They claim tn be the only clothing house in New England which manufactures only for their own retail trade. This brings them into competition with no one and euables them to trim their garments with such value as the quality of the gooda requires and as will do Justice to the garments and give satisfaction to the wearer.

One look at the east wlndowof Blritnell Bros, shows the people a few of the styles from which they sre manufacturing thtlr spring stock, and In proof of the above assertions ',» a convincing argument.— From Saturday's American.

The great success of the Royal Baking Powder is due to

the extreme care exercised by the manufacturers to make it

entirely pure, uniform in quality, aud of the highest leaven-

ing power. All the scientific knowledge, care, and skill

attained hy a twenty yearV practical experience are con-

tributed toward this end, and no pharmaceutical prepara-

tion can be dispensed with a greater accuracy, precision,

and exactness. Every article used is absolutely pure. A

number of chemists are employed to test the strength of

each ingredient, so that its exact power and effect in

combination with its co-ingredients is definitely known.

Nothing is trusted to chance, and no person is employed in

the preparation of the materials who is not an expert in

his particular branch of the businooo. As a consequence,

the Royal Baking Powder is of the highest grade of ex-

cellence, always pure, wholesome, and uniform in quality.

Each box is exactly like every other, and will retain its

powers and produce the same and the highest leavening

effect in any climate, at any time. The Government Chem-

ists, after having analyzed all the principal brands in the

market, in their reports placed the Royal Raking Powder

at the head of the list for strength, purity, and wholesome-

ness, and thousands of tests all over the country have

further demonstrated the fact that its qualities are, in every

respect, unrivaled.

THE POLICT of ooD-tnsarance upon city buildings, or practically, of the city becoming its own insurer, received two pretty sharp blows in the burning of tbe Broadway Bridge and* tbe re* cectly destroyed school bouBe, 'KJIII

cases where policies of iusuranco bad been permitted to sxuire. Of course, ni the long run, as Insurance com- pautes llx their rales at A figure which will afford a profit upon average losses, fie city, which, unlike an individual, has not its all, perhaps, in a single bnildm;>, will In' tin' gainer by non- insurance. But tbe difficulty is in the matter of yearly average; if Insurance is kept I'pmi the public buildings, the cost is paid, year br year, and a fair proportion goes nils each aunual expenditure account; if a loss occurs, il is not seriously felt. On the other hand, with the system of nou-iusnr- ance, one or two heavy losses in a single year, may throw a specially he.tvy burden of cast upon (hat particular period, and freally embarrass the administration. We believe that if

the city is to continue the policy now partially in force of becoming practically, the insurerof its own property, an insurance sinking fund ought to be established, snd gradually increased until it afforded a sufficient: sum from which tho losses by lire might be paid whenever occurring. Otherwise, with ao insurance policies, a serious confla- gration might destroy sufficient city property, to prove a public disaster to our aauuticinality.

Eastern New England ArMoci- aiion MeetlDg.

A meeting of the Eastern New England Association of base ball clubs was held at the Essex House, Saturday. There was a large number of well-known base ball men present, among them II. A. IMtson of Boston, Arm of Wright A Dltson, Messrs. Prince aud Howard of Haverhlll, Parsons, Eowle ami Wellington of New- buryport, poa of Gloucester, Waterhouse of Portland, Harris and White of Con- cord. The alx clubs of the association

i represented as follows : Biddeford, r7. Sutberland; Lawrence, W. W.

Barnham: Haverhlll, W. E. l'earsuut<; Gloucesfer, J. J. Flaherty; Newburyport,

J. Leonanl; Portland, C. J. Wlggin. Seley of I^wrence, Prince of Haverhlll, and Flaherty of Gloucester, were appointed acotrmUtee to take into consideration she playing rules to tie a*»e.i*d. and reported, recommending the adoption of the national rules—with the exception of those relating to the pitcher's pesttlun and ac- tions. It was voted that tbe price of admission b"' 25 cents—except In the city of Newburyport, where but i* cents will be charged. Considerable argument Anally resulted lu the admission of Brockton to the league and tbe election of Henry Bicknell as its representative director on the board. An assessment of $10 was levied on each club, for entrance fee, uuder the national agreement, upou which It

THE (JOALIFICATIONS for foreign missions seem to be misunderstood by tjentlcmen who have lived abroad for a number of years and have returned to their despised native land for tbe sake of an appointment and the con- sequent cmoluaient.

Ml|MSlfiB8t' Tue ProPer m*n t° represent a country ia one who is known to its inhabitants as a public spirited, liberal minded citizen of sufficient means to have acquainted himself with the manners of foreign ports so as not to >gnorantly interfere with their customs, but not so much imbued with foreign ideas that he forgets the dignity and requirements, social and commercial, of the section of the world which be represents. Kaoh division of our country should interest itself in this matter and see that tbe best man ia sent, direct, oof. moved or trans- ferred from some other country to represent what he kuows nothing whatever about. The United States is not what it was ten years ago, or even fire years ago. Tbe newspapers cannot possibly represent the coirect relations of this country to other countries in tbe minds of habitual dwellers abioad because no two ot them agree and tb* ideas of readers must become contused. Neither will a short visit to this country suffice tc initiate tba foreigner or the would-be foreigner, Into popular American necessities and demands. If the United States Is not good enough to furnish a home to aspirants for honors at its hands, let tbem ask for office and emolument where they spend their lire* and then mouejr.

TttKttK is something iu the sugges-

another a strong slavery advocate be-

fore the war, and a ihird one who de

nounccd the northern troops haBten

they were uot tbe men who were being

urged by the present leaders of tbat

ferent type of candidates was pressed

upon the president by the men now at

view of the case, that be promptly sent

THK RELATIONS between Russia and

cent event.-' kadi to the belief tbat war

between these two great powers is in-

erllalile. Kussians in lôndon write

other end is possible, and the tenure

of recent dispatches has Iiecn to send

evening, in the House of Commons

Lord Edmund Fihtmaurioet uodor for-

eign secretary, replying to a qnctUon

put by Sir Henry Drummond Wolif,

conservative, En regard lo the Afghan

frontier, said that it was not recorded

in a formal docunicut. Mr. Woltf then

asked: "Does the question of jteace

or war depend upon tbe verbal assur-

ance of Russia?" To this the under

foreign secretary did not reply, where-

upon the conservatives cheered ironi-

cally. Karl (Iranville, in the house ol

lords, said tbnt it was desirable thnt

the government, while firmly adhering

to tbe policy which England's obliga-

tions required, should not omit any

banco of arriving at n friendly agree-

ment with Russia. Russia is just now

n a much better condition for war

than is England, while the resources

of Ibo latter are BO severely strained

by tbe conflict in tho Soudan and the

unhappy coridilion of Ireland, and to

add a contest with a power of the

strength of Russia, would increase the

burdens to the utmost tension.

bill for weekly payments. Senators

Whiting of Worcester aadOunn of Frank-

rose dissent.

Section l. AU^ttrporatlonB shall pay, at intervals not exceeding 10 days, all

operatives employutl by them, the wagei*

earned by such operatives to withla six

days of the date of said payment.

Sec. t. Aoy corporation violating any

of the provisions of this act shall be pun-

ished by a fine not exceeding ar.o. and

not less that (20 for each and every of-

fence.

Sec. S. This act sliall take effect Aug

1, 1880.

The mlnoilty say that the committee

has given prolonged bearings, and the

advocates of the change have lieeu chiefly

those receiving weekly payment, or per-

sons enjoying salaries from labor organ-

isations, no actual employes of a Massa-

chusetts corporation now receiving

monthly payment having appeared, cither

personally, and but few, If any, by peti-

tion, itemonstrauces were presented by

about 400 corporatloni. The minority

say that any legislation fixing periods for

the payment of wages to employes by

corporations is tiiexpelleut, because it

would be of doubtful :onstitutlonality;

It would Inaugurate class leglslatlou ; It

would apply to only a United numbar of

annul the common right of making con-

tracts, heretofore always exercised by

persons employed by colorations; that

existing modes of payment, weekly, fort-

nightly and monthly, are natural growths

and will change accordhg to circum-

stances; that restrictive legislation Is per-

ilous, discouraging the lnv*staientof cap-

ital and checking the demand for labor;

that the preseut time is esptclally Inop-

Guilty of Man sUughter—The Pen

alty 7 to 20 Years,

The jury la tbe Kandcrs murder trial at

Montpeller, was given the case at noon

Wednesday. Afteralittleovcrthree hours

deliberation they returned a verdict ol

manslaughter. The penalty for this de

grec of crime is, lu the discretion of the

court, cither flue or Imprisonment for

life. The counsel for Saoders saved sev-

eral law questions, but It does not seem

probable that they will attempt to have

the verdict set aalde and run the risk of

another trial.

Tbe murder occurred at Montpclicr, Vt., Saturday forenoon, Aog. 23, ism

The murderer, Sanders, was married

about a year aud a half ago to Louisa

Spencer, notorious in connection with

Carr while he lived In Lawrence. Tbo

couple lived unhappily together, Sanders

being Jealous of Carr. Un that eventful

Saturday morning Sanders left bis home

at East Montpeller and drive Into Mont-

peller, went to the store of Blanchard

Brothers, on Main street, and procured

cartridges and a revolver, and visited

Carr's store, where he found Daniel Carr

with his (Sander's) wife's mother and a

young girl. Carr at the time was seated

at his desk. Sanders walked up back of

Carr and tired three shots inta his body,

one taking effect In the back of his neck,

another going through his lung and tht

third lodging In his body. Carr fell out

of his chair ami expired Immediately, while Sanders coolly picked up his re volver and left the store, lie was at once arrested aud confessed the deed. There is no need at this time to rehearse the career of "Elder" Daniel Carr. It Is too well kuown In this city to need comment. The conylctlon of Sanders was a surprise to most Lawrence people, who, knowing the character of the murdered man, and fully believing be had only had justice meted out to him after years of profli- gacy, hart hoped to see Bancier* arcquuw*.

Wing 4 On., mamufacturers or shoddy, was held in Boston Tuesday, 8. N. Al-

drlch acting as chairman. The commit-

tee of Investigation chosen at tbe first

what by »n accountant, and he reported

ed »38u9. The committee was of the

opinion tbat the real estate of this city

that the equity, If there lie any, might

as well be Ignored in determining what

the creditors ought to receive. In the

matter of a compromise, Mr. WIngstated

to the meeting that he had found a party

who would hack him in aa offer of lo

Oettto on the dollar, and this proposition,

Exotics. An AMERICAN reporter, Thursday

the course of lie travels, paid a visit to exteusive greenbouseg of Thoroton

Brother*. He was shown around by the

nlal ([entlumau, among; niasaes of potted

heath In lull ulaggoui,gracefully arranged upon tables; delicately tinted calla Ulle

la great profualou were grouped In pota apotl Mum!-*, and near by beautiful Easter iilii-". whoiie rare fragrance perfumed the

air, were artigtically arranged. The

porter was led along avenues, on either

side of mliili nodded an elegant array of

rosea of every description, while tropical

plants, such as are used In church decoration*, werh displayed in bewildering vari ety ami numbers. It waa like a dream of

the East; the fragrance of rare flowers, the exquisite blending of their nolois and

their artistic arrangement calling up tales

uf OtlenUl gardens. Cinerarias, tbe finest the reporter had ever seen, were dis-

played in rich profusion, and forests of

sinllax. of mast delicate green, clambered up the curds upon which they wen- trained. Such a display of geraniums I It would

task a btitanlst to call them all by their

names, but for variety and beauty it Is

gain to say they can hardly be excelled in the vkluity, aud as nearly all were in

blossom it was a sight worth seeing. In

another part of the greenhouse there were,

a great number of carnations, whose sweet odor added to the fragrance of the

atmosphere, and stately dracenas af exquisite tlutiugs and veinings, drooped

their loaves as if in sleep. One of the

finest sights, however, was a very wealth of pslms. instinctively calling up pictures

of the tropical lands, where they grow In wild luxuriance. The vary large display

of Easter anil calla lilies Is, perhaps, the

finest in tbe city, autl would richly repay

the Inspection of all interested Inflowera,

while the order anil neatness about the greenhouses, the artistic grouping of the

plants and blending of rich colors, at

once stamp the proprietors aa not only florists, versed in culture, but as baring

the rare faculty of arranging colors to the best possible advantage. Thornton Bros.

In past years have decorated a greater part of the churches In this city, also In

Methuen and the two Antlover*, at Ea*ter

A CASE of general interest in its bearing upon municipal government, bos just been decided in the supreme court of Maine. In tbe early part of InBt year, city msrsbsl Andrews of Portland, was removed from otltcc, by sn order passed by the sllermen, approved by ihe mayor of that city. Subsequently the deposed officer brought suit sgainst the mayor and aldermen upon the ground that he had been illegally removed. The decision of tbe court, which covers the points made by tbe plaintiff, is that where an officer is subject, after a bearing,to removal by tbe mayor, with tbe advice antl consent of the aldermen, the hearing by the aldermen alone is not sutH- cieut; second, where the officer it re- movable for inefficiency or other cause, tbe fact of sufficient cause must be passed upon or tbe order is invalid. In this case tbere was a bearing by the aldermen only and there was an omis- sion to vqdjîpon the tm'h of tUo charges against the officer, hence the order for the removal of tbe officet was Invalid, As tbe then city government hfts gone out of existence, and cannot review its proceedings, this so Tar restores Ihe marshal to his position that be will be able to recover, his salary for tbe entire year, nltiiough it has been once paid by the city lo bis sue-

Ammonia, which is a prodr.ot of decomposition and a refuse of the worn-out tissues, should not l>e tolerated in any article of .food. It is a ])owerful drug and its use in food is vigorously condemned by all physicians.

Free Tartaric Acid over-accelerates and wastes the leavening action of the baking powder. Both of these ingredients are cheap, inferior and deteriorative substitutes for the more costly and wholesome pure Grape Cream of Tartar and pure Bicarbonate of Soda which we And u neon laminated in CLEVELAND'S BAKIXQ POWDER, and which, with a Bmall amount of Hour to preservo the compound, are the only ingredients jf this powder.

An Important meeting of the Htoi-kholU- ere of the Washington Mills wan held at •J02 Deyotulura street, Boston, Friday, to act upon the report of the camuilUee appointed October 8, and determine whether the corporation will sell lb* mlUl and tiiacbtaery, and If ao, how the Male aiiuii ba made.

About 100 persona were present, and tlu mall) discussion was upon two propo- ■iUonr. The report of the majority, presented l)j Mr. C. U. Cotting, of Boston, liiitnicted tbe directors to sell the mills In one or more parcels on the IHth of June next, with the condition that the ma- i l.inery and fixtures should >><■ previously Hppralsed, and should be taken at the ap- praisal by the purchaser., of the mills.

Mr. Bouney of Lowell proposed a substitute to tbe effect that the mills should be sold on the Itith of June, but that tbe stockholders should positively order the sale to be made In the following manner,

The mills shall be divided Into two or more parcels, and each parcel offered .eparatcly, with the proviso that after bids have been made for tho separate parcels, the mills shall be offered as a whole; and If the bid for the whole property exceedH the aggregate of bids for the separate parts, then the property shall be sold as a whole, but otherwise the bids that have been made for the divided property shall ii.' accepted.

Tbe argument In favor of Mr. Bonney'.* proposition, as developed In the remarks of several speakers, consisted in the fact that the No. 1, or worsted mill, of the

poratlon was very desirable property to be operated separately. It was thought that, if that were sold by Itself, tbe Pacific Mills might desire the remaiuder of the property whirl: adjoined them,orlt would probably be wanted by other parties at the very great bargain at which It would be likely to be obtainable. It was held that tbe mills c >mpr.se tS.OOO.UOO worth of property, and are likely to tie a great bargain in any event.

J. S. Murphy, one of the directors of the mill, opposed the plan of Mr. Bonuey, upon Information given hitu that it was tried In the case of the Manchester Print Works some years ago.and proved a failure. Not a single bid was obtained for tbe separate parts, aud the result waa that the lack of offers so depreciated the property thitt when but a single bid was made for the mills as a whole It was accepted.

Another gentleman, however, said Mr. Murphy had been misinformed in regard to the Manchester sale In qQestlun. Bids were obtained on the separate parcels, and that adjoining the Ainoskeag was actually sold to Mr. llovey of Boston ; but when the committee who had the matter In charge stated that they had received a bena .Me offer of $1,000,000 from Mr. 8. K. l'aysoti of Boston for the whole property, Mr. llovey kludly withdrew and Mr. I'ayson's offer was accepted.

The protracted discussion having several times brought out expressions as t* the value of the worsted mill of the Washing- ton corporation, one of the stockholders Inquired whether the remainder of the property could not be sold and enough tulck capital be obtained In that way to

retain the worsted mills and operate them for the present stockholders. He based bis Inquiry upon the statement made last October that the sale of the tenement houses with exiting quick assets would leave the whole mill property and ma- hincry free from debt. If such werethe

fact, the further sale of all but the worst- ill would yield capital enough to start

the latter, and it could be run at a profit. Messrs. John S, Farlow, Joseph Sawyer

and others, favored the report of the majority of the committee. Other stockholders, however,- were equally earnest in advocating Mr. Bonney'B proposition. II was finally decided to adjourn to Saturday March N, at tbe same place at 11 o'clock when a stork vote will be takeu upon the question of substituting Mr. Bonney's motion for the majority report. Mean time, both propositions will be printed and sent to every stockholder.

The summons has again been answered i one of the pioneers of Ijiwrerce. Mr.

Leonard Btoddard, fhc well-known carpenter and builder, at one time chief of police, died Friday at bis residence, No. S Newbury street, after sn Illness of comparatively short duration. The deceased was bom at Durham, Me., ou the 22ntl of February. 1808, where he learned his profession. He removed to Dover in the same state and became so popular li Ills new settlement, that he was several times chosen to represent the district In the state legislature. He cams to l.sw rence, when it required sturdy, practiced hands to help to build It, and many of the substantial business and dwelling blocks scattered over the city, bear testimony to Ills taste aud skill. About :i0 years ago Mr. Stoddard was made chief of police, and filled the office with such acceptance, that at the expiration of his term of service, he was appointed deputy sheriff, and held the office over ten years. De- teased was a charter mem!>er of (irccla n Lodge. F. and A. M., when it was Itsti- tutcd ut Methiieii, and had been worshipful master ef the organization. Ills wife, who still survives him, was the mother of nine son, six of whom are living, and occupying honorable positions In life. They are Russell, a resident of Lowell] Frederick, of Winchester; Leo^ uard, Jr., a clerk In the treasury depart meut at Washington; (Jranvllle M., n prominent manufacturer Worcester, formerly for many years superintendent of the Washington mills In tiiis city, and AI- phonso and WlnOeld of this city. Mr. Btoddard was a member of the L'nlversa- llst church and the first leader of Its choir, under the pastorate of Itev. Geo. II. Clarke. Deceased was among tne best knowu^Rt! respected men of the community—one who looked on with pride, at the rapid strides which the city of his adoption was making toward prosperity.

"The publisher of The Christian tt Wort has been asked if the letters published In this paper, bv Dr. J. H. Schenck, of Philadel- phia, were genuine. In reply he says, that his representative has seen the originals of I'V.TV tetter at tho office of Dr. Schenck, In Philadelphia.1

Gentlemen;—I have concluded that it is my duty to write you in regard to the great benefit I have received by the use or Dr. Schenck'n medicines. One and a-half years ago I was very sick with what my fhends and myself believed to be Consumption of the LungH. The disease began with a heavy cold, its worst symptom being a dry, hacking cough, which waa almost continuous night and day. Soon after this 1 began ralaing a thick yellow matter. Iteing exposed to all kinds of weather, by working at my trade, I caught additional cold aud grew worse, until I waa obliged to give up all work. I at thia time bad terrible pains la my lungs, and was soon attacked with severe night-sweats. I tried all the cough remedies advertised, I believe, before I heard of your remedies. They were firat brought to my notice by reading your book on "Consumption and its Cure."

I used all your medicines; that is, the Man- drake Pills, Seaweed Tonio and Pulmonlo Syrup. I felt their beneficial effects from the firat. They gave mo atrcugth and they gave me appetite, and in a very short time m_r cough was looser, aud soon after disappeared altogether, I begun to gain flesh, too, and in tho course of two months from beginning their uae, I wa* very near well. I am now entirely well, and, believe me, very thankful that I found your medicine* and took them intimetoaavomy life. I shall be pleased to have any one call ou me in regard to my case.

Yours truly, P. TURNER, JR.,
