The OGDENsBUBG AND PRESIDENT HAYES
The correspondent of the Boston j Journal who
who was in the train of President Hayes dur
ing the Presidents trip through the mountains
seems to have occupied most of his time in
clarifying the Boston, Concord & Montreal
railroad. In order to further the interests of
that corporation he did not hesitate TO msrepre-
sent facts. The trip through the Crawford Notch
is said by this correspondent to have been made
lander the immediate supervision of Mr.. Lyon
OF the Boston, Concord & Montreal road The
truth is that the officers of the Boston, Con-
cord & Montreal vainly endeavored to dissuade
the Presidential Eparty from undertaking the
trip to North Conway, that it would not have
been undertaken had not the Portland & Og-
densburg extended an invitation to the Presi-
sident and that the train which bore the party
was "under the immediate supervision of
Mr. Hamilton, superintendent of the Portland
& sOgdensburg. The Journal correspondent
would do well to acQuaint himself with the
facts in a case before attempting another re-
port. AS it is he has given to the bite rest en-
envy of the Portland & Ogdensburg the credit
for the most notable excursion which has vet
been made over the line, and which would
never have taken place could Mr. Lyon have
had his will. An attempt was even made to
spoil the reception at North Conway by send
ing despatch stating that the President had
abandoned his journey to that place. The
despatch was unsigned.
1t should further be said that the success of
the trip through the Notch was assured by the
politeness. care and attention shown to the
Presidential party by Gen. S. j. Anderson.

tendent. That goes without telling in Port.

A bold Highway man.

Yesterday morning Mr.. Charles A. Strout,
son OF Sewall G. Strout, Esq, of this city, was
riding in Cape Elizabeth in a top carriage with
open sides, when deliberate attempt was
made to waylay him. He was passing through
piece of woods about two miles from
Vaughan's BRIDGE when man of ordinary ap-
pearance stepped out of the woods, and ap-
preaching the carriage, asked the time of day.
Mr.. Strout stopped his horse and taking out
his watch replied that it was Ii o'clock. He
was about to replace his watch when the fellow
said, THAT is pretty good watch.'' and at the
same time made grab over the wheel for it.
Strout was watching him, and applying his
whip to the horse started to leave him. AS he
did this the fiend drew revolver quickly and
fred at him. The shot just escaped his head
but struck his little finger of the right hand
smashing it and the ball passed out of the car
riage
Mr.. Strout drove quickly into the city and at
once notified the police. Marshal Bridges and
Deputy Black drove quickly to the place and
arrested man on suspicion of committing the
deed, but as he could not be identified he was
released.

MANY who are suffering from the effects of the
warm weather and are debilitated, are advised by
physicians to take moderate amounts of whisky two
or three times during the day. In a little while
those who adopt this advice frequently increase the
number of "drinks,'' and in time become confirmed
inebriates. A beverage which will not create
thirst for intoxicating liquors, and which is intended
especially for the benefit of debilitated persons,
whether at home or abroad, is DR.. Schenck's Sea
Weed Tonic. Containing the juices of many medic
nal herbs this preparation does not create an appe
tite for the intoxicating cup. The nourishing ana
