JOHN CoNLEY, resident of Biddeford, is an
individual whom reporters delight to honor If
times are dull John gets drunk, and this course
of procedure becomes habit and no notice is
taken of it if he attempts to slay the wife of his
bosom. If this fails to engross public attention
for a sufficient time he attacks the officer and
attempts to jump from car going at the rate
of seventy miles an hour or less, he then at
attempts suicide and in fact there is nothing
which the self-sacrifices spirit of John will not
lead him to attAmnt. -

OPENING OF ANOTHER MOUNTAIN HoUsB.-
Many of our old citizens who used to visit the
White Mountains by stage via North Conway
will remember that famous old hostelry which
stood ten miles below the Crawford Notch and
was kept by old Abel Crawford, the father of a
race of popular landlords A good many years
ago the stand passed into the hands of DR..
Bemis who occupied it for his private residence,
and the present generation of mountain visitors
never knew it as a famous spot. Lately DR.
Bemis has built him a new home, and the old
stand has passed into. the hands of AbePs son,
George him of the Upper, Bartlett House. Last
Wednesday night the old place was formally
opened to the public again. The old sign, which
had been'laid away SO many years, was brought
out and swung to the breeze. The old registers
of 1885 were hunted up, and group of Port
land people recalled the past by reviewing the
familiar names of former visitors, with the
quaint bits of poetry and notes of personal ex-
periences appended. It's worth a journey up
there to examine these books The house is
unchanged, and Crawford keeps a plain, old
fashioned tavern, with generous, homely COM
forts, which he dispenses with hospitality and
tariff of prices that is refreshing in these days
of fashionable hotels. 1t is one of the most
quiet and retired spots in the mountain region,
with no outward excitement except the rumb-
ling of the five coaches that pass daily to and
from North Conway. DIR. Bems says that his
life was prolonged forty years by residence in
this beautiful place, and he feels good for ff-
teen more May he live long to enjoy his beau
tiful home and the rare collection of Interesting
objects that he has gathered around him.

q GENEVA, July 29.-The Swiss Times IN CIV
ing further particulars of the proceedings of the
Board of Arbitration says that the board has
disallowed the claims of the American govern
ment arising out of the depredations of the Bos-
ton, jeff. Davis Music and several other small
er rebel vessels. The reasons leading to this ac-
ton are that the previous charges of negligence
on the part of the British government SO far as
these vessels are concerned have not been prov
ed. li1.- 81. -
Tho Times to-day says it is in a position to
confirm the report so current that the Tribunal
