A STRANGE CAsE.-The following are the
particulars of the death of Eben Smith of
Bridgton from the bite of cat, as given by
the News:
The case Of Eben Smith, who died last week
from the OBJECT of the bite of a cat nearly six
months before, was singular as we'll as sad
affair. Mr. Smith undertook TO kill a cat for O
neighbor, and was about to swing the animal
by the hind legs, SO as to bring her head down
on a block, when she in great rage seized his
hand and bit it severely He tore her off, dis
patched her aud resumed his labors. Soon,
however, erysipelatous inflammation resulted,
which, despite medical skin, extended gradg-
with severe pain. This was followed by a
general eruption over his whole body, involving
the mucous membrane of the head and stom-
ach; assesses formed in his leg, which during
his sickness discharged some so gallons purilent
matter; the bones of his hand and leg became
diseased internal assesses formed; his consti-
tuition broke down, and he continued to grow
more feeble until Thursday night, the 18th
inst, precisely twenty-five weeks from the
day he was taken down, when his sutferings
were relieved by DEATH Through that long
period he never left his room.

WE notice by the abstract Life Chart just
printed from the official returns of the differ
ent insurance companies doing life business
IN Maine the past year, that the Equitable Life
Assurance Society of the United States heads
the list both in amount of new business and in
the increase of premium receipts.
Mr.. j. f. Clark. General Manager for the
State, informs US that the general business de-
preston had no visible influence with the sue
cess of his agency during 1874, thus showing
that the Equitable must be exceedingly popu.
lar.
We also notice that nearly one-fourth OF all
the life business transacted in the state by
thirty-three companies was done by the Equit-
able, that is, that it did nearly eight times the
average amount of all the companies
1t does not seem SO strange that men prefer
the Equitable when its strength of $27 ,OOO,OO0
its income annually of $10,0OO.OOO and its sur
plus Of $4,OOO,O0O are taken into account 1t
issues all the ordinary forms of policies that
first class companies do, also the Tontine which
is very attractive to capitalists as an invest
ment.

THE ALLEGRETTI IcEBERG.-The Iceberg
is the only Refrigerator scientifically construct
ed SO as to secure the one absolutely preserving
temperature which nature provides in its sup
ply of ice; namely, 80 degrees Fahrenheit. NO
invention of man can ever hope to excel this
provision of nature; for below this point, even
one degree of temperature, all vegetable life
will be destroyed, and every degree of temper
allure added above that point only deducts so
much from the efficiency Of the preserving
power

Yesterday morning Messrs. j. I. Lewis u
Co., the Oldest clothing firm in the state, held a
formal opening at their fine warehouse IN the
Donnell Block, Nos. 149 and 151 Middle street.
The occasion was very pleasant one, nearly
all the wholesale merchants in the CITY en-
bracing the opportunity to pay their respects 10
the esteemed bead of the firm, MI. jacob L.
Lewis, gentleman whose business talent anu
genial personal qualities have endeared him to
his friends: and to testify their appreciation OF
the younger member, Mr.. james L. Lewis, ohe
of the most enterprising of the rlsipg business
men of Portland. A substantial collation. was
served on the occasion by Mr. James Toner OF
the Falmouth The affair was certainly one OF
tbe nleasantest which has ever occurred in bus
mess circles in Portland, and it is to be hoped
that similar reunions will become more frequent
among our wholesale dealers.
The quarters occupied by the firm are forty
feet by one hundred, and embrace three stories.
The first story is devoted to the counting room,
handsomely decorated and furnished with Bal
ley's improved desks, and to the sales room,
which is one of the largest and most commodi-
GUS in the state. Upon the second floor are
the trimming and furnishing rooms, large, well
lighted and convenient. On the third floor is
the great work-room, filed with employees.
The best elevator in the city runs from base

frances on Newbury as well as on Middle

Oldest clothing firm in Portland, having been
established thirty years ago. 1t gives employ
ment to three hundred people, and its annual
sales amount to $25O,OOO. Its market is Maine,
New Hampshire, Vermont and the Provinces.
1t makes speciality of supplying the lumber

of over 100000 worth of goods yearly; Mr..

ing business, entirely desoted to the manufac-
ture of oil clothing. They supply the market
east of Cape Ann.
