Lately, when on a visit TO country house
where the dinner table decoration is much
thought OF, I saw some varieties OF what ia
called "a water bouquet" which, / think,
some ladies who do not already know it may
be glad to hear about, especially at this time
of the year when flowers are scarce and in
genuity is taxed to the uttermost for novelty
and variety. The articles required are a
glass dish (circularl and a low glass shade to
fit inside the dish. You then make bouquet

The Riot among ExcursiOllists.

The Portland papers contain the following
particulars of the riot which occurred in their
city last Friday evening:
On Friday, Waterville Engine Company,
No. 8, with the Veteran Association, made
an excursion to Peaks Island, Portland har-
Dor. Among them were some 30 Frenchmen.
When they reached the city, on their return,
most of the Frenchmen, and some of the
others were drunk, and became more so be-
fore the train started. A French fellow ap-
piled to another an opprobrious epithet, which
was resented. A fight commenced and in
few moments the whole crowd was engaged
The train had started, but the fighters at
tempted to drive the peaceable ones from the
car. The train was backed into the yard.
when Detective Heald, Deputy Sheriff V. c.
Hall, and officer Langmaid, help having been
teleph0ned for, went out. The fight had then
become general. Knives had been drawn,
and there was a scene of the widest confu-
sion. The car windows were broken, seats
torn up, and the doors broken. Head and
the others went to work, and in few min
utes had thrown several out of the car. One
was rendered insensible, and it was thought
for short time that he would not recover
But he did. and with three others were taken
to the station. Mr.. Head was kicked severe
iy in the ribs, but he has no doubt the man
that did it can be identified by the bruises on
his head. The name of the man so severely
injured was Jim Shaw. About twenty were
put of the cars, and the remainder being
quoted down the train proceeded. 1t was a
most disgraceful affair.

They got to wranging over politics and then
to betting Hammond bet he could pick out a

4 steady Revival Apparent..Abundan
Harvests, etc.

New YORK, August %. The Tribune pub
fishes an interview with large number OF
business men. on trade prospects, and says
they express the belief that times are steadily
improv ing. Abundant harve>ts West and
South, and revival of manufacturing interests
are mentioned as proof. The principal de-
partments OF trade are firm. with an upward
tendency.
The volume of business the past six months
shows an increase over the corresponding pc
RODS since 70, and the volume OF bushes, is
considerably in excess of last year. and Il
more cheerful feeling exists throughout the
land than since '73.
