Paris was in very fair condition, and
there we're three or four other jails 10 the
State not as suitable for prison.
This ended the frs! days proceedings.
The Committee met the next morning,
and after the examination Of two wit
nesses, each party was allowed thirty
minutes for argument. Mr.. Swasey &C
cupied his time in careful considers
ton OF the propositions in the Petitions.
He argued that the case as here present
ed by the petitioners had no foundation
to rest upon, for the remonstrants ex-
ceeded the Petitioners in number by four
hundred. The proposition OF the unit
ness of the County buildings was fully
and satisfactorily disproved. and that no
ground Of argument for removal on that
account could exist. He said the Legis.
lature of two years ago. passed an act
giving Fryeburg one term OF the Su-
preme Judicial Court, to pacify eight or
ten OF the Western towns; and that ii
Norway were now to be made the Coun-
ty seal Dixfeld, and Canton, and the
towns in the vicinity, would justly be
entitled to one term Of the S. j. Court,
leaving only one term for the center OF
the County. He argued that there was
necessity for economy. and there was no
good reason, now that Fryeburg and the
Western towns were satisfied why the
County seat should be removed TO a
border town within three miles OF Cum
berland County, and incur expenses OF
thousands of dollars in taxation which
was sure to arise in spite Of all the prom
ises of Norway or her inhabitants. He
would like to know how the inhabitants
of Norway could raise money enough to
build County Buildings at an expense OF
S75. 900, and give the use Of them to the
County free. Did any town ever make
sue b promises and fulfil themP He end

ADJUSTMENTS.
GRAND OPERA-HOUsE,

"Humpty Dumpty' was given last even
ing to an immense audience at the Grand
Opera-house. The performance was ex-
cellent in spite of the fact that most of the
company consisted of new members. A
change was made by Mr. Roberts from last
season in this, that, instead of one clown
acting, there were two. The change is not
for the better although both, with few de-
fects, did surprisingly well. The fun by
their tricks, many of which were new, was
immense and the house was kept in a con-
tinual roar of laughter Miss Ida Maussey
(Mathilda de la Rose) appeared as 'Colum-
bine" and did her part well. Her figure the
principal qualification needed for "Col-
umbine" was pretty and handsome. The
feature of the evening was the gymnaStic
exercises by the wonderful Siegrist Family
Louise, Tony and Willie-and the house
greeted them with laundering and repeated
applause.
Ashton and Miaco have no equals as
speciality performers on the horizontal bar.
Another excellent performance is that
by Miss Marietta Zanfretta, on the tight
rope. She does some wonderful things
and never touches a balancing-pole.
The kennel of trained and educated dogs
was pleasing to the audience. On the whole
the pantomjme is one of the best and every
performance should draw an oVer-CroWded
house. Matinee tomorrow afternoon.

The investigation of the charges of i'm
morality made by little Fanny Hampton, a
school girl, against her principal, Jesse P. j.
DeBeck, of the Fourth District, was con-
tinued yesterday afternoon. The testi-
mony went hard against DeBeck as that
given by Fannie Hampton and the boy,
John Taylor, could not be broken down.
DeBeck tried very hard to induce Taylor to
state that he knew Fannie's character was
bad, and that he could give enough naughti.
ness on the part of the girl to fill a news
paper. His game didn't work, for the lad
stuck to his original statement, that Fannie
Hampton's character was above reproach
He even strengthened his statement by
taking an oath. Another point developed
was that DeBeck had only suspended the
girl after her father had refused to compro-
mise with him.
The Trustees after hearing the evidence,
which can not make out Fannie as a bad
girl, decided not TO act in the matter for
the present

Oysters and Whisky.

The verdict in the case of George Phil
lips, found dead in bed Sunday evening at
442 West Fifth street, was death from pa
ralysis Of the head, due to excessive use of
alcoholic drinks r
DR.. Valentine Schneider last night made
post-mor EN- examination. On dissecting
the stomach he found that it contained
fully one half of gallon of whisky and
four immense and select oysters. These
naturally foated on top, and when the man
had 10 make an effort to empty his stomach
of the whisky they of course bulged up
against the canal leading to the stomach,
and thus formed a valve, which would not
permit the emission of the stomach's con-
ten s. This fact led to the paralysis of the
head.
The case has created some talk in medi-
cal circles.

What is it they ought to know, thenp

than being learned in all sciences and in
all languages, to be at the same time false

things teach the boys that truth is more
than riches. more than culture, more than
any earthly power or position.

trine of shells in the cream in its bald-
est form. Nor do we want to Join in argIs
ment with its veterinary editor when he ex-
presses his opinion that a voluntary with
holding of the milk by COW is not posi-
ble." Yet we cannot believe that any one
who has been in the daily habit of fitting
the cow as they say in York state, will
agree to this view of the subject, or 10 the
idea that the holding up is due purely
to fright, nervous excitement, worry
about her calf etc.
How can this idea be reconciled with the
observed fact that COW that is MIXED, say
at seven in the morning and four in the al
ternoon, as many are during the short
days of winter, will hold up her milk at the
evening milking, but not at the morning
milking? There is no more excitement,
or fright, at one time than ut the other,
and no calf TO worry about. She simply
Tor wisclv) does not want to be MIXED be-
cause her bag is not full But by persist
ing in the action of milking for minute
or two the milk will come; or if you are
in hurry, Just press gently on the spinal
processes of the lumbar vertebrae (ridge
of the back bone at the small of the back),
and you will see her back drop an inch or
more and the milk will come ut once. Now
is not this humping herself volun-
tary act by which the COW is enabled to
control the flow of her milk? 1t looks so
