This record is fair illustration OF that OF all
the rest of the companies, and shows the spirit
that prevailed throughout the poorly organized

they responded as one man to the call. Such

NIT. He therefore gives her brother, William

very doubtful he shall give Mr.. bennett per-

equitable according.to their respective needs.
The rest of his property he divides into 20
equal parts and gives his niece, Susan B. Sta

Cumberland County District Lodge OF Good
Templars met yesterday with the lodge at
Woodford's. In the absence OF The Worthy
District Templar Seth Scammon of Scarboro,
Worthy District Councillor Starbird presided.
There were n delegates present representing
all but nine lodges in the district. They re-
ported the financial and numerical strength of
the lodges as excellent. The officers were
elected and installed. The following are the
names handed us:
W.D T-Robert H. Murphy, Portland.
w. Councillor-E. II. Starbird.
W d. V. margaret Pillsbury, Cape
Elizabeth.
W.D. SD. R. Dresser, Portland.
WD. Chap-H. w. Straw, Portland.
W.D Treasurer l. N. Chase, Saccarappa.
w. M.-William Stalland.
W. D. M.-Josie Clark.
w. A. ST. 81. Dexter.
The following resolutions were passed:
First-That total abstinence from all intoxi-
eating liquors as a beverage is the fundamental
principle of the Order and OF the reform In
which we are engaged.
Second-That the indiscriminate use OF al
coholic beverages as a medicine, leads direct
" to the path of meditation. That the use OF
such LIQUORS, and the long list of patent medi-
cines dealt out by drue gists and grocers all
ever the State calls Tor gfeaCer 6HOrtS 10 lp part
a more perfect knowledge of the evils result
ing from such use.
Third-That the traffic in intoxicating
liquors, in the past, has proved an unmitti-
gated evil, its protection cannot change the re-
suit for the future. We therefore oppose any
legal protection of the traffic. Temptation to
the weak can never be legalized by our votes.
Total abstinence cannot be maintained under
the license system.
Fourth-That prohibition by the State and
the Nation is not only an outgrowth of our
work, but is demanded by every consideration
of Christian virtue and manly patriotism, and
we demand sufficient penalties and their i'm
partial enforcement by all executive officers.
Prohibition has succeeded in Maine
Fifth-That we are in accord and will
heartily cooperate with the church, the
schools and all temperance organizations en-
gagged in the great work of saving the people
from the ravage of intemperance.
Sixth-That in the moderate drinkers we
find the greatest obstacle to the temperance
reform and urge the members OF the Or
der to use all honorable means to make the
drinking system odious in the eyes of all the
people.
Seyenth-That it is the duty of Good
Templars to use political parties in the interest
of ali true reforms and in case of failure thus
to use them to aid in their destruction.

Roller Skating Rink.

In spite of the storm Of last evening large
audience was present at the aesthetic party at
the rink. Sunfowers and lilies were seen in
great abundance. Oscar Wilde was faithfully
represented by a well known young man of
this city. Quite number of admirers were
present in full costume. Several unique de-
signs were noticed. Among the many novelties
a huge sunflower, which measured fully two
feet across it, was especially noticeable.
