.Iosanh II. Parlav.

Mr.. Perley, whose death was announced yes
terday morning, was born in Gray. in this
county, February 2Sth, 1903, being the son of
Isaac Perley, farmer in comfortable circum-
stances.
In early manhood he purchased with his
own earnings and carried on for some years a
farm in his native town; he was also engaged
in the stock business, first with Col Merritt OF
Jay, and afterwa rds with S. W. Porter OF
North Yarmouth. About the year 1886 Mr..
Perley moved 10 this city and formed CO.
partnership with Judah Chandler, under the
name of Chandler & Perley, for carr yiDg on
grocery and ship chandery business, near the
head of Commercial wharf, just in the rear OF
where Willis Block on Commercial street now
stands. This co-partnership continued until
the year 1S41, when Mr.. Perley withdrew and
entered into partnership with Mr.. John w
Russell, under the name of Perley q Russell,
occupying store on Commercial wharf, on
spot now covered by Commercial street.
In 1851, soon after the building of CONNER
cial street, they moved farther down the wharf
and occupied store standing on what is now
the southeast corner of Commercial street and
wharf, which spot they occupied continuously
until about six years since, when Mr.. Perley,
on account of failing health, retired from the
firm.
During the whole of his life Mr.. Perley was
noted for his integrity and upright dealings
with all who had business with him.

An Air Prnnellar.

Capt. Richard Tucker of Boston, arrived in
this harbor yesterday morning from Wiscasset,
with his famous air propeller, on which he is
with view to taking the
prize offered by the Erie Canal Company.
They require boat which will run by steam
on the canal, without leaving "a wake and rails
ing large waves, which wash the banks and
cause great expense in keeping them in repair
This boat attracted considerable attention yes
terday by the novelty of her construction. She
is built like an old-fashioned scow and is 613
feet long by 80 feet beam. She draws two feet
of water amidships. The bottom is Y shaped,
from stem to stern, and has five keels, aft of
| the centre, running out to the stern. Forward
of the centre the five kees extend p feet On
the forward deck is placed an upright, high
pressure boiler, of fifteen horse power. Just
behind this is the engine, which has a large fly
wheel feet in diameter. On deck is a large
air box extending almost ACROSS the boat, from
the underside Of which four square tubes run
down perpendicularly into the water. large
fan is placed on the air chamber, and the air is
forced directly downward into the water be-
| tween the five keels. The propelling power is
| given to the boat simply by the air rushing be-
tween the keels and pressing the water out at
| the stern. When in motion the air, rushing
out, gives the boat the appearance of stern
wheel propeller, although she leaves no per-
| oeptible wake. The boat easily makes five
| miles an hour. This invention is the result of
several costly experiments and may possibly
be the means of doing away with the present
system of towing canal boats with horses and
| luules.

PORTLAND s. oapENsBuRG.
Proposition to Buy the Powder House
Lot.

Last evening President Anderson of the
Portland s. Ogdensburg road, appeared before
the proper committee of the City Government
in reference to the purchase by the road. If
possible, Of that portion of the city lands lying
in front of Bramhall, and on which the powder
house is located for the purpose OF establish
ing the machine shops of the company there
on. These are now located near the transfer
station Mr.. Anderson's idea was, the land if
bought by the company would pay more in
taxes than if ultimately used by the city to
build houses on Tor to sell for house-lots) as the
red clay of which it is composed would make
the expense of streets through it more than the
taxes would be. The property consists of some
49, acres.
Mr.. Anderson stated that several towns de-
sired that the shops should be located in
their midst Fryeburg, Deering, Upper Bart
lett, all had made very acceptable offers. but
it seemed to him that Portland was most in
terested in having money spent at home that
was earned by the machinists of the company,
as she was the largest owner in the road. If
the Maine Central desired the land, as had
been limited, why then he would withdraw his
claims in honor of road whose business was
SO much greater, and whose shops, If moved
here, would leave so much more money in the
city, but he did not believe the Maine Central
intended to move their shops here.
Mr.. Anderson thought it would be we'll for
the city to sell the road the first half OF the
desired land at the rate of 500 per acre, and
tue remaining portion at the rate of $500. for
ona ouartar and S50o for tha other. The COM
mlttee will probably come to some decision
which they will report to the City Government
at the next regular meeting on Monday next.

A Calais Man in trouble.

George Hutchins, Calais sail-maker, came
to this city Saturday in search of work. He
has not found it, but has succeeded in making
work for others. Yesterday he drank freely
and in the evening stumbled on and off Burn
hams wharf, missing the water, striking a
boat, and badly brusing his head He was
rescued from his uncomfortable position by
Mr.. Thomas Smith, night Waterman for the
Boston boats. This is the fifth man Mr.. Smith
has pulled out of the dock within short time.
His humanity deserves some substantial recog-
nition Hutchins on his arrival at the station
was bleeding freely from the cuts on his head,
and was anything but pleasant object to con
template His injuries are of trivial charac-
