d tno REFORM school.
The whole number of boys at the Re-
form School in Cape Elizabeth, Dec. l.
1862 was 1S3. During the year 65 have
been committed and 6 returned, while so
have been dischared, have escaped. 6
nave died, and has been pardoned by the
Governor, leaving 160, in the institution
Dec. l, 1870. There has been an unusual
amount of sickness, but the trustees re-
port that in the six fatal cases the diseases
were of long standing and were not con-
tracted at the institution. The working
force OF the school has been reduced in a
greater proportion than the diminisle d
numbers would show. Many of the larger
boys have been discharged during the year,
or allowed TO 60 out on trial, aud the
average age is now much less than usual,
SO that the trustees are in doubt whether it
VIII be expeaient next spring to carry on
the work in the brickyard.
The receipts from the shops, hrickyara
and barn, from April l to Dec. l, 1870.
amount to 5000. The receipts from the
same sources for the balance of the year
are estimated at $3.50. From cities and
towns S2Ol9 are reckoned for the wear.
The State appropriation is $12, 53S, making
grand total OF $27 ,347. The expenditures
during the same time will amount to S23.
800, leaving balance of $3,657, to which
must be added the unexpended balance of
last year. 1897, making in all balance of
$4o54, II the sales of bricks, tiles and hav
during the winter come up to the estimates.
the trustees ask for an appropriation for
the next year of $l1 ,946, which includes
$l2oo for improvements and repairs, and
300 for the library. .ua...
Among the improvements of the mast
year Is the painting of the exterior of the
house, which has answered good purpose

which had previously been too intrusive.
The trustees report that the color selected
was appropriate, but on that point are
doubtless mistaken. The Reform School,
with the rudy color which originally be-
longed to it, was pleasant feature in the
landscape to which it belonged, while the
urao suit 1T has now assumed is as dreary
anu unpieasing as possible.
1he proposition to heat the building by
steam is recommended to the a,tant;on of
the legislature with considerohIo onoho
SIS and may possibly be profitable consid
cred in connection with the unusn,, a:n,.
ness of the last year.
The most importan; change of the vo..
is the resignation of Superintendent Wood.

he says that "after all their manouvering and

found representing Chamberlain in the cleo

A fellow in Bangor named John Mcdonald,
who has recently been released from Jail, for
larceny from clothes lines, eloped Tuesday
with the wife of his neightor James Mccoy, as
we learn from the Wing.
The Wing says letter was received Tues.
day at the Bangor Post Office, from the Dead
Letter Office. which was mailed at Bangor,
Dec. 21st, 1866. 1t was directed and sent to
California city, and its whereabouts for the
past five years remain matter of conjecture.
The letter contained the photograph OF a gem
tleman, but the original had changed so much
that the likeness was hardly recognizable.

TEE McErrR1cK WALKING MArcH.-Mr
McEttrick's walking match in Boston last
week seems to have been most barbarous
affair, which would have disgraced less CIV
ilized country. A newspaper writer, discrio-
ing the affair says that at ninety seven hours
and fifteen minutes from the time MeEttrlck
EST arted, he sank utterly exhausted anu IN
conscious on the ground. In an instant he
was seized by the attendants and amid the
plaudits of the audience, "set upon his pins
again, with his back resting against the wall.
The poor dazed wretch, slowly recovering his
senses, stared about him with an idiotic ex-
preston of countenance,and straining what
little life was in him tor another effort, set
out again. He had scarcely gone twenty
PAGES when he fell prone and motionless like q
man who had been shot dead. Once more the
modern Athenians set up exulting cries, and
once more the apparently llfeless body was
dragged out, duly sponged, shaken up, rubbed
and otherwise stimulated. When he came to
| the second time he was CHASTITY object to
contemplate. His pale face, his wild haggard
look, his feeble breathing, his swollen and
bleeding legs, his blistered feet, and miserablJ
| weary, wOebegone ensemble, seemed to helgnt
en- the desire of the audience for third Ell
| fort, and third effort the poor creature 40
soutely made latter an hour and half devot
| ed to restoring him) completing the lO4 hours
| amid thunders of applause.

A New YORK MYsTERy.-Our readers
will recollect that we published, a few weeks
ago.. an account of mysterious affair on
board New York ferry boat-the inding.by
young man of reticule in the ladies' cabin
which contained $4,000 IN bonds, gold watch
other articles ofvalue and letter from lady
to her lover, signed Eliza P. After making
every effort to discover the owner, the finder
took possession of the bag. The second chap
ter in the mystery now appears. On Monday
afternoon the body of a woman with hand
some features, and magnificent black hair
was found off the E'ysian' Fields, much in
jufed by floating ice. She was dressed in
black alpaca, and her clothes were marked
E. P. 1t is surmised she jumped off the boa
on which the reticule was found. The matter
| will be thoroughly investigated.
