Curious.

It is quite possible for two enterplA~
ing men to bring about the sweet boon
of three Christmases in the same week.
If two men set out from this city to cir
cumnavigate the globe in opposite direc-
tons, agreeing to meet here on the day
before Christmas, they will accomplish
the following result: One viii lose a
day and the other gain day. The
Christmas of one will come on the Oath
of December, and the Christmas of the
other OH the 26th of December. They
will therefore find themselves in the
possession of three consecutive Christ
mas Days, and if they do their whole
duty their children will be so delighted
that they will beg them to repeat their
iourney.-.NeaO York Graphic.

1t Always Pays

to trade with first-class house, because you
are sure of getting the best class of goods at
the lowest prices The most striking nlustra-
ton of this truth is the great wholesale and
retail iewelry house of
N. MATSON AND CO., CHICAGO,
corner of State and Monroe streets, whose sales
outrank all other iewelry houses in the North
west. Their resources and credit are 80 great
that they buy and import as cheaply as any New
York house, and their sales are SO immense that
they can sell at the buying prices of their COM
petitors. The character of the house insures
to purchasers the exact quality and value of
goods as represented. For the Holidays and for
the general trade, they have an unusually large
stock of Silverware, Clocks, Bronzes, Gold and
Silver Watches, Jewelry, and Fancy Goods, fifty
representing the largest, best and most popu-
lar iewelry house in the Northwest.

WE give, on the authority of Mr.. f.
B. Carpenter, notable story OF Henry
Wilson, that has never yet been pub
lished. The evening before his in
auguration as Vice-President he called
on Mr.. Sumner, and said Sumner,
can you lend me hundred dollars l
have not got money enough to be In
auourated on" Mr.. Sumner replied :
Certainly. If it had been large sum
might not have been able to help you |;
but can always lend friend hundred
dollars" He then gave Mr.. Wilson q
check for the amount, and after the
latter had retired Mr.. Sumner, turning
to Mr.. Carpenter, remarked There is
an incident worth remembering such a
one as could never have occurred In any
country but our own.-NetU York I'ade

THE Forty-fourth Congress has one
unique case of contested election to de-
eide. It may be summarized as o case
of cheek, colossal cheek, enough to equip
aregiment of army mules. Its possessor
is Augustus NJ. Lowry, who lives in the
Thirty-second District of New York at
the last election of Congressman, the
vote of this district stood: Norton, 10,
ITO; Gary, 9,139; Lowry, 5. This
shows 1899 votes against Lowry to 5
for him; but he claims the seat on the
ground that he was the only person voted
for as Representative IN the Forty
fourth Congress, and that therefore
only his five ballots should be counted.
1t is pity that Barnum has gone out OF
the show business. He would certainly
have secured Mr.. Lowry as an unique
curiosity.

"FArHER is gonel" That is what
Tweed's son said to the polite Deputy
Sheriffs who accompanied the hero OF
the Sc, 900, 900 suit upon his last visit to
his private residence. The officers grew
pale, as well they might, because they
we're under heavy bonds for the faithful
performance of their duty. Sheriff Con
ner gives security to the amount OF
$50, 600 and Warden Durham 500, 600,
and they are liable to fine of $1,000

neglect. No one can be found who saw
the Boss enter the coach that took him

Matsell, President of the Police Com
missloners, there was collision some
wht re, and he thinks the fugitive escaped
earlier than was reported.

BASE BALL.-Three or four hundred people
went out to Presumpscot Park last Saturday
afternoon to see the game between the Reso-
lutes and Dry Goods, both of this city, and
were treated to the cheapest exhibition of ball
playing of the season. Both mines played
badly, but the fielding of the Resolutes, for
first class nine, was simply disgracefu. Their
errors were all made in the in field, Wilson
alone playing his postion-second base-with-
out an error The out-ield had little to do,
a couple of fly balls came into the centre field
which st John took care of, and fine stop by
j. Barnes of ball between centre and left was
the sum total. Ayers splendid catch of foul
ball and two neat double plays we're about the
only redeeming features of the Resolntes field
ing. The fielding of the Dry Goods was better
but nothing to brag on" Their errors were
all confined to their in-feld, Evans alone play
ing without an error, although Hersey played
| finely at first, The outfeders captured all
balls sent their way, and Payson took one hot
| from the bat in good shape. In batting the
Resout2s slightly excelled, making eight safe
hits to the Others Esix, showing the pitch
| ing of both Leighton and Payson to have been
very effective.
| Ths Resolutes scored only in two innings,
being whtewashed seven times; in the first In
| ming they scored four, and two in the ninth. The
| pair in the seventh, and one in the ninth. 1t
was narrow escape for the champions, as a
| glance at the following score will show:

MAINE GENERAL HosPITAL.-The friends of
this valuable charity are projecting an enter
tainment in its aid to come off in October.
Mr.. G. B. Bartlett of Deerfeld, Mass, has
prepared pantomime and art tabeaux. He
is to be assisted by large number Of ladies
aud gentlemen of this city, and the prospect Of
a pleasant evenings amusement, which shall
render material assistance to the Hospital, will
be gratifying to all citizens. it must be OBJ
vious that SO good an undertaking as the Gen
eral Hospital canuot be properly carried on
with the meagre endowment hitherto bestowed
upon it, and also that it was better to start at
once and depend upon the generosity of pub
lie who are each and every one liable at any
moment to be deeply interested in its existence
than wait until its support could be secured in
advance. 1t sometimes seems as if some gush.
ing objects of charity which throw themselves
upon the bosom of confiding public, protest
ing that they must have help or perish, would
do better to die at once, but this is of all Others
the highest and noblest that can appeal to US
helping rich and poor alike, and it is impossible
to do too much iu this direction. This is
"home charity" too, and will afford an oppor
tunity for those to contribute who had con
scientious scruples against the Centennial.

AMONG THE MoU NTAINs.-The Sund ay train
over the Ogdensburg was well patronizel yes
terday. The train left this city with twelve
cars and about 200 passengers under the direc-
ton Of Conductor Richards. The number was
increased at every station, and when the train

An UNFAIrHFUL SERvANT-Saturday after
noon Officers Merrill and Burnham arrested
Frederick H. Smith, trnck man in the employ
of Charles Mclaughlin & Co. Mr. Smith is
charged with stealing groceries to the value of
$24O from the firm, consisting of two hogs
heads of molasses, five and one half barrels of
lard and three barrels of pork. They were
taken in such small quantities that the loss was
not discovered until Saturday. The officers
recovered one hogshead of molasses and one
barrel of pork, aud the other lard and pork
barrels without their contents, the latter having
been sold.
