City Hall was filled with large and intelli-
gent audience last night anxious to hear more
OF the Indian question and listen to Miss
"Bright Eyes" The stage was occupied by
the committee, Mayor Senter. Mrs. Williams
and Miss bright Eyes" Mayor Senter pre-
sided and Rev. Mr.. Dalton offered prayer.
Mr.. Tibbles was then introduced and COM
rnenced his remarks by saying that the Boston
Sunday Herald had been made the Govern
ment organ for the past few weeks to attack
him and defend Mr.. Schurz, and this morn
ing, in the same paper, Mr.. Kemble takes up
the cudgels.. He is. the man who moved the
Poncas from their lands in spite OF two treaties.
Kemble said the Poncas were in a condition of
starvation and the Government under no teeaty
to feed them. This was false. The United
States statutes contain the terms Of the treaty,
by which the Poncas were to receive in pay
ment for their lands $4,000 a year for thirty
yeats, and the time will not be up until 1885, 9.
In fact the whole Ponca question is matter of
record, and their story cannot be denied.
Kemble talks about an investigation Why
this Government has had an investigation
about every year, last year most thorough
one by a special Senate committee. That COM
mittee proved, even by the Government wit
nesses, the Poncas were in the right, and de-
nounced Kemble as an incompetent The
committee said the Poncas had a fee-simple to
their lands. They bought $4,000 acres and
paid for them. 1t is true the transaction took
place before Schurz's administration, but
Schurz knew about it and sen for companies
of soldiers to drive them off the lands legally
theirs. Mr.. Tibbles narrated a number Of in
stances of gross cruelty to the Indian tribes
and claimed three things for the Indians
1st-The outstanding influence of the gospel.
You can send a missionary to China or Persia
but not to the Indians. 2d-The establishment
of courts in the reserves, where every one will
have fair trial. 3d-The titles of Indians to
their lands.

taken up when Miss Bright Eyes delivered her
interesting address

The Age Of Elijah eth.

Mr.. Dalton's lecture Saturday at st. Steph-
ems church, on "The Age of Elizabeth of
England" was we'll attended.
The speaker reviewed the events leading
TO the secession of Henry VIII from the
church of Rome, and the attempt of Queen
Mary to restore the ancient faith. He be-
neved that Elizabeth was more Catholic than
Protestant in her views, but that she was a
true Queen OF England, and never dreamed
OF yielding to the Bishop of Rome and giving
up the crown at his demand Elizabeth found
england divided into three parties, One
party represented the Catholic element, an.
other may be said to have believed in Henry
VIII, while the third class were the Puritans,
who more than once in Elizabeth's long reign
saved England.
The speaker discussed the questions-was
queen Mary guilty of plots against the life of
Ellzabeth, and was she guilty of being con-
cerned in the murder of her husband? and
her and that the execution of Mary is not a
blot on the reign of Elizabeth. He gave a
vivid description Of the death of Mary
The reign Of Elizabeth was rich in results
The population of the kingdom increased al
most one million, and the wealth of the peo-
Elizabeth will be remembered because of the
great names associated with it. Shakespeare
appeared at least once before the Queen, and
ne and his company were paid about one humid
dred dollars for their services, and it is re-
lated that the Queen twas nightly well
pleased!~ 1t is only in this age that his genius
has been regarded at its true value-if, indeed
it is now so regarded. Leaving out all proph-
cts and apostles it may be said that his was
the greatest intellect Of all time.
AS contrasted with the rulers of Europe in
her day, Elizabeth was great, and her are
was great one. In her reign the PROTESTANT
faith was established, but it was not until a
hundred years after the last attempt to invade
England, that the liberties of its people were
established on firm and secure foundation.

Water Supply.

The low state of water in the Lake not only
causes the Water Co. to pump its entire supply
but they have to contend with difficulty not
before encountered. The lake not having
frozen'over the water has become chilled and a
large quantity of anchor ice has formed on the
rocks on the bottom of the lake and extends to
the surface, forming snowbank of slosh ice
three to four feet deep on the Shores A north
wind drives this body of ice on to the conduit,
packing it full and stopping the flow of water
to the pump. AS it is not solid enough to cut
nor shovel, the water supply is cut off for the
time. A change of wind will drive it to some
other part of the lake. This ice will continue
to form until the lake freezes over, when it
will all disappear. Until that time the upper
levels of our city will suffer much inconven-
fence by reason of the supply being taken from
the reservoir. Co.

British Stuhhornnass,


The other day Dr. Fitzgerald says he was on
the way home from the West, and had put
what spare money he had into checks with the
exception of dollar and half, and intended
stop over in Montreal At that city he re
ceived dispatch to come right through to per-
form a surgical operation. He went to the
regular conductor Of the train that ran through
to Island Pond and offered to leave 500
overcoat, $500 diamond pin, Or anything
else he had with him if he would pass him to
Island Pond where the conductor on the train
coming to Portland would know him, and get
his trunk checked through. He begged, pray
ed, wriggled to no avail. Finally the Pullman
car conductor and porter said they would risk
it and got him and trunk through. When he
reached Lewiston he sent the Pullman car con-
ductor and porter on the hall, of the line from
Montreal and the conductor on the half from
Island Pond handsome present for their cour-
tesy, but the doctor thinks that his patient had
a narrow squeak for his life, and that British
stubbornness nearly killed him.

Supreme Judicial Court

The following decisions with rescripts have been
received from the law courts
ANDRoscoGGIN COUNTY.
John Simpson ct al. vs.. Albert Caswell and trus-
tees Exceptions overruled.
Rescript by Symonds 1.-THE result of the dis
closure is to show that by mutual consent, before
to the principal defendant had been discharged and
the claimant of the fund had become the itor of
the firm for the same amount. This was a transac-
ton to which-when in good faith-the sta ute re-
quiring record of assignments of does not ap-
ply The trustees owed the defendant nothing
when the writ was served. In some cases in Massa-
chusetts, under similar statute accepted orders,
nnrecorded have been held to be ineffective against
the trustee procees-upon the ground that the &C.
ceptances created liability only pay the balance
remaining after satisfying the claim of the attach
ing creditor. Here the trustees were liable in full to
the claimant.
Octave Bermier VS.. Cabot Manufacturing Co. Ex-
ceptions overruled. Judgment to await the termin-
alton of the trustee suits.
RescriDt by Symonds, 1.-THE oral contract, re-
lied upon in defence, is held on grounds stated in
clear rule of law is that oral contract within the
statu 9 of frauds can no more be made the ground
of defence than of demand. The obligation of the
plaintiff to perform it is more available to the
defendant in the one case, than the obligation of
the defendant to perform it would be to the plain
tiff in the other The present case does not fall
within any of the exceptions to the rule.

The Chestnut Street Church Lifts It's
Debt


The Chestnut street church was erected in
1856 and is a handsome, commodious structure
1t cost a large sum of money and for almost a
quarter of a century it has struggled along un-
der large debt. In 1876 about $4,000 re-
manned to be paid and then the debt was re-
duced to about $4,000, and the next year to
about $4,000. Since then the interest and re-
pairs on parsonage and church have increased
that sum to $9,044.
Yesterday Bishop Beck was present and it
was considered good time to raise this debt.
At the morning service $4,000 was subscribed;
at the afternoon service the amount was raised
to over $4,000, and at the evening service the
fall amount was obtained. This will be good
news to the friends of fthe church which occu-
pies the leading position in the Maine Confer
ence.
