ANOTHER TRIUMPH FOR THE STEAM SAFE
american Steam Safe Co.: Gentlemen-We
are pleased to inform you, and the public, that
the Steam Safe which we purchased of you
some time siEce was the means of preserving
uninjured large amount of debt, money, ETC..
exposed for several hours to a tremendous heat
during the fire which destroyed our manufac-
tory The safe was in the ruins from Sunday
evening, 9th inst, until eleven o'clock Mon
day forenoon, and on opening it the contents,
embracing our books, policies of insurance,
ETC., were found to have sustained no injury,
although it had been for long time surround
ed by burning timbers, ETC. We also found
that more than halt of the water remained in
the tubes, convincing us that the safe would
have withstood the test many hours longer
We ale so well pleased with the result that we
shall use no other than your Patent Steam
Safe in the future, which we shall order at
once. Respectfully yours,

EXCURSIONS To MoRRow.-The friends of the
Allen Mission have arranged an excursion in
aid of this phlanthropic enterprise, which de-
serves the encouragement of all Christian
people, and ought to call out their sympathy
and substantial assistance. We believe this is
the first excursion to Harpsweli for the season.
1t u.s. as all know who have been there, most
delightful place, and the means of reaching it
are very satisfactory. The Charles Houghton
has had many improvements added since last
season, and is safe and convenient boat. She
will make two trips during the day, ct hours
which will accommodate all.
The Irish American Relief Association will
go to Lake Sebago. The committee have pre-
pared good time for their friends, as will be
seen by the advertisement. The race between
four boats crews on the lake will furnish one
mean of excitement, and the match game of
base ball for prize will insure the interest of
all the young men; while Raymond, at the
hall, will attract to himself all the lasses and
consequently good delegation of the laddies.
