A narrowing tale is telegraphed from
Paris. The scene was the summer cir
Gus. A marquis meets there his wife,
from whom he has separated, and his
little boy. He grabs the boy and makes
oil, but not before the marquise had
stabbed him in the face with a gilt dag
ger. which she had taken from her hat.
Then she went home, only to find the
boy sleeping in his bed, and the town
is informed that madam will soon ap-
pear upon the stage! Talk of Barnum's s

The Harmonu Murder.

Eugene Hurd, the Harmony murderer, was
visited in jail by a representative of the Som
ersat Reporter, to whom he gave the following
account:
Shortly before his father died he (his fatherl
married second wife, and daughter OF the
second wife, by former husband, married
Howard, his brother. The second wife,and her
daughter, and Howard, he claims, formed
conspiracy to defraud him out OF his rightful
share in his fathers property. Previous TO
TINS marriage he was considered the faVorlte
son and expected to get good property at ms
fathers death. In fact he claims that Will
was made giving him $1,000 but through the
influence named above it was changed TO $o0o.
Ihls OF course made him suspicious OF MS
brother and his family and it has been per-
rect hell In that home for the past four or nVe
years. Last March Eugene married IN new
Brunswick and brought his wife to 1--we next
door to his brothers family. AS late as last
Thursday they had hard quarra and threat
ened each other bite rly over the ownership OF
seven punches of ay. The next day, Friday,
Eugene went to Dexter and on his return
turned one of his horses out to feed. Saturday
morning Howard complained that the horse
got into the oats and again they had hard
words, and after thinking hard for some sec
onds Eugene remembered that Howard struck
him "a little'' when he seized his shot gun
and shot him. He is very positive that after
he seized the gun he knew nothing.
Hurd is not vicious looking fellow: lie
evinces great solicitude as to his fate and hopes
to secure Hon. S. d. Lindsey and Il. n. Mer-
rlll as counsel

CONFIDENTIAL.

In view of the intolerant, persistent, aggressive
efforts of Romanists, their ayowed determination
to subyert the government OF me 1nisea states
desire to submit to you the following questions
Are you a Protestant from principle and from
choice? ..
liberty and maintaining the government of the
United States?
3-Do you regard Romanlsm as the enemy o.
civil and religious liberty?
AIs it not, in your opinion, unwise and unsafe tc
appoint to CIVIL political Or military Office in tht
country men who owe allegiance to the Pope ol
Rome and who have sworn to OBEY him?
5-Are you in favor of maintaining the principle!
of general unsectarian free school organization
G-Are you opposed to all attempts to use the
public funds for any sectarian purpose whateveri
Are you in favor of putting into office homes
and true patriots who are pest qusnned to NIL th'
positions regardless of political parties?
S-Are you willing to be governed by these prin-
ciples in your future political actiens?
S--Are you willing to unite with others who holc
your fortune and your sacred honor, to the protec
lion and perpetuation of civil and religious liberty
and this great American Union?
The obligation, which was most solemn
and binding one, contained pledge that thu
initiate would under no circumstances VOTE
for or appoint or assist in appointing Roman
Catholic to any office of trust, civil, political
or military, and this obligation was solemnly
agreed should be binding while life SHOULD
last. =
taken upon the Holy Bible, has been kept BY
the Democratic portion of the order, may com
mend itself to Jesuit, but is not calculated t.
inspire confidence in true American citizen
especially when some of them who now den!
having any knowledge of what they were do
ing, or worse still, deny having joined th
order, stated at the time the above circular wa
presented, that they were members of the oil
t'Nnow Nothing" organization, and were glat
the essential principles of that order were be
ing revived, and should be happy to enrol
themselves in the ranks of the new.

OUR FISHING INDUSTRY.
E.H. Chase's New Packing House.

Mr.. E. H. Chase, tho well-known fish pack
er on Long wharf has just completed his new
packing house on the wharf, which is admira-
bly, adapted to all the requirements OF the
business. The building is two stories in
height, and, on the ground floor, Mr.. Chase
has the finest Office Of any one engaged IN the
trade in Portland. 1t is 25x9 feet in size, is
finished in chestnut and we'll lighted.
Off from it is a private office, handsomely
carpeted, and provided with all the modern
conveniences Adjoining these offices is the
packing room 100x50 feet in size, and about
10 feet high. Here the firm pack, on average
days, 200 barrels of mackerel, but when
rushed the amount rises to 500 barrels. Am
pie scuttles are provided in the floor to carry
off the refuse pickle and floor washings. The
main floor when occupied holds 1000 barrels OF
fish. The floor is very carefully laid, and the
supports to the second story, which is used as
store room in part, are aslmassive as on the be-
tween decks of man-of-war. There is large
force-pump on this floor, worked by wind
mill ON the roof of the building, to supply the
water for the packing and washing.
On the second floor, which is as large as the
one underneath, is the great store-room, and
the bins containing the salt There is also
great tank containing $4,000 gallons of water
for use below. A portion of the floor is de-
voted to the boneless fish business. Here Mr..
Chase employs eleven persons who cut and
box $50 boxes weekly and send them to Mr..
Chase's brother al st. Paul, Mimi, who has
established large trade in that city and
where the fish are in great demand. There is
also large open hatchway with a run con-
Meeting with the roof. On the roof large
frames are laid, and, by the run, the fish will
he taken from the vessel, hoisted through the
hatch to the roof and 81 read on the frames to
dry
Farther down the wharf Mr.. Chase has
another large packing establishment, 75x5O,
where 1900 barrels of mackerel are accommo-
dated and almost an equal number Of barrels
of fish hacked daily as in the other building.
He also makes frozen herring speciality in
tba season. Mr.. Chase employs sixteen yes
sells constantly in the business some of them
making two trips week, and he stands nearly
at the head of the packing business in Port
land

SPACIOUS QUARTERS.
w. Il. Kohling's New Tailoring Establish
ment.

1t ia always pleasant to record success, es-
pecially when the successful man has seized it
by dint of hard wark, good work, attention to
customers, and unvarying courtesy Mr.. W.
H. Kohling is just such man. Nineteen
years ago he landed in Portland by steamer
from Liverpool, direct from Germany, and una
BILE to speak word of English. He had been
a tailor at home and brought to this country
with him the stock of goods he had on hand
when he gave up business in Germany. He
hired shop Of Mr.. W FL. Clapp, and for
long time he had an up hill job until he ac-
ouired our language and became familiar with
American methods of doing business. Since
that time he has steadily progressed until he
has found it necessary to obtain more commo-
dious quarters in order to accommodate the
large and first-cIass patronage he has obtained.
The rooms secured by Mr.. Kohling are stu
ated in the second story of the new Lancaster
Building on Market Square, the most central
location in the city, where FIVE streets con-
verge Everything and everybody passes his
doors. The quarters are exceedingly airy,
comprising the whole of the second story,
and embracing front room looking on the
Square, which is as large as the great store OF
Loring, Short & Harmon underneath, IS Drill
liantly lighted and splendidly ventilated.
Here can be found all the latest and most at
tractive styles in imported and foreign cloths,
and Mr.. Kohling is having new and modern
designed counter for the express purpose OF
showing off the goods to advantage Mr.. Koh-
ling's ''fts'' go for the saying and are equal to
those of the best Boston tailors. Off of the
main room is q spacious, well-lighted, warmed
and carpeted room for "trying-on" or draw
ing-room for customers, and back of this the
long, wide work-room, which, with its excel
lent light and ventilation must be great boon
to the large corps of work girls and workmen
who occupy it. 1t is also provided with all
modern conveniences. There are only three
occupants of this large Lancaster Building,
Allen & Co., Loring, Short & Harmon and
Kohling, and they utilize every foot of it,
Each establishment has separate entrances for
their customers and their employees.
That Mr.. Kohling will still further increase
| his business and become all themore popular
| in his new quarters, is assured. Every man
| likes to be we'll dressed and fashionably dress
ed, and Mr.. Kohling succeeds in accomplishing
| that feat even at moderate prices.

A Rensgade KNOW Nothing.

To the Editor of the Press:
To one who knows all the facts the remarks
Of Mr. MCCARTHY in the Democratic caucus
were to say the least amusing. He is reported
to have said in effect that Mr.. D. w. True
did not deny having joined the 30. A. o." but
claimed he was fooled, or that he Joined the
order, not knowing its character or objects
This of itself would be a very damaging ad-
mission, for man of Mr. True's reputation,
as business man and politician, were it true,
but nothing could be farther from the truth.
No man who became member of the order in
this city was deceived in any way as to the OBJ.
jects of the order, or the principles he would
be required to sustain. On the contrary each
and every one was first sounded in regard Il
his sentiment toward the Roman Catholic
church, and if his sentiments as expressed
warranted the confidencs, the following Cir
cular was presented to him, and if an affirma-
tive answer was given to each question, he was
told that such an organization existed; the
nature of the obligations which would be re.
quired and invited to mako regular applica-
ton for admission:

Abiding to the recent strike and ill-feeling
between the New Jersey Railroad managers
and their employees, an exchange pays the fol-
lowing compliment to Superintendent Iucker
of the Maine Central.
In striking contrast with this action is that
of the managers of the Maine Central Rail
road, who have provided to give all their en-
pIoyes and their families an excursion some
Sunday to Maranocook, where Tree dinner
will be- furnished and religious services will be
held. Most railroads are not in a condition tc
recognize their employees in this manner, but
many recognize the value of that policy, There
will be no strike on the Maine Central, and
remembering this act OF thoughtfulpess' tne
Greater part Of the employees will render more

Small Pox.

The barkCarrie E. Long, (which arrived at
this port yesterday, had hard luck. On the pas
sage from Bahia to one of the West India is
lands for cargo of salt a member of the crew
was taken with small pox. He was isolated
ana placed in charge of another of the crew
who had suffered from the disease. The man
died and was buried at sea, tweDty-one days
ago, the vessel fnmigated and painted. The
authorities at the island would not let her
land however, and the captain had to sail for
this port in ballast arriving here yesterday
morning. The health officers found every
thing had been done that was necessary and
to-day the vessel will come up to her wharf.
BY the action of the authorities in the West
Indies the vessel lost chance to bring $4,000
cargo here.
