Entertainment at Casco Street Church.
A superb entertainment, musical and litera-
ry, at the Casco street f. B. Oh ureh last even
ing opened the course oftconcers and lectures
to be given by the society The programme OF
the Grimmer Orchestra was an excellent one,
every selection being fully applauded. Con
spicuously good were the piccolo, saxophone
and cornet solos, but it was good throughout,
from the opening overture to the closing
march. Mrs. Emma Wyer Mosely, by her ar
tistic readings, contributed not little to the
success of the entertainment. Her spirited
rendering of juvenile selections seemed to give
special satisfaction. The attendance was large
and the managers cannot regard it as other
than most auspioious beginning of the course.

Mr.. E. II. Carpenter:
Dear Sir,-My daughter had previous to the
year 1881 been great sufferer from Rose or
Hay fever for four years. and every intelligent
physician knows how difficult it is to treat. 1t
would come on about the 10th of June and last
her until about January following.
On April, 1881, 1 bought one of your Pino-
Palmine mattresses and pillows for her and
watched with interest the result. She has not
had bnt one slight attack since, and that was
from cold taken when away from home GU a
vacation, some eight days before she returned.
She returned home, and after using the Pine
and pillow one week she was all over it, and
for the last year she has not had it at all. My
wife and myself used the Pine for the last fif-
teen (15) months and think it the sweetest and
best bed we ever used. Also nine of my pa
tients have each had one for more than year.
Some used for Rheumatism, General Debility,
Asthma, Nervous Debility and Nervous Pros
tration, &c. Not one but has been benefited,
and all say they would not part with them for
twice their value. Yours, &c.,

The other day man rushed into Sawyer's

The Cadets ball will prove one of the social
events of the season. The company have pre-
pared for an extensive lay. out, the Lowell
Phalanx will prove a great feature of the af-
fair, and the reserved seats will be sold at
Stockbridge's at 9 a. m. to-day. Checks for
the reserved seats will be given out at a. m.
The lush for numbers to procure reserved
seats for the Cadets drill and ball on Tuesday,
evening, Dec. 9th, has been simply wonderful.
AS early as 6 o'clock last evening the first man
put in an appearance at Stockbridge' equipped
with chair and extra garments prepared to
hold his vigil all night long, but not alone, for
before II o'clock as many as eighteen were i'm
patiently waiting for the o'clock bell to ring,

hearty reception to their guests, the LOVELY

A REPLY.
Important to CyclOpadia Buyers.

More than 100 people in Portland and
viclnity,-105, to be exact-including clergy
men, lawyers, physicians and business men,
have within the past three weeks subscribed
for the Encyclopedia Britannica, at full price
through the agents of Charles Scribner's
Sons. A few former subscribers, who have
been beset with plausible Misrepresentation
of the work, have been led to throw up their
subscriptions, in plain violation of good
faith. Some others, unwilling to dishonor
an obligation, have accepted the urgent Of
fer of one j. E. Miller, to assume their sub
scriptions and exchange the volumes already
issued for Appleton's Cyclop@da. All such
persons however, remain honorably and
legally bound by their original subscriptions.
He invites all who desire to investigate the
merits of the two cyclop@dias mentioned to
make careful examination and comparison
of the volumes, side by side; and since most
persons will still prefer the "foreign CYCLIC
p@dia," he can supply, at secondhand, odd
volumes as far as issued, and the balance he
will cheerfully supply at regular price, pro-
uided he can get them After eight previous
editions of the Encyclopedia Britannica
have won for it the foremost place, and the
Ninth Edition, now two-thirds com
pleted, has already reached an american
sale Of over $4,000 sets, the public have
no doubt either of its completion or of its
vast superiority to Appleton's Cyclop@dia-
whether in the hastily made editions of 1878,
10 and 'S1, or the more valuable ''old edi-
ton" of 1S57-63, which with no more matter
than 10 volumes of the Encyclopedia Brit
annica) was seven years in issuing. For

More than 100 people In Maine including
clergymen, lawyers, college professors and

much dissatisfied and disappointed in the
character of that work that they have either
thrown up their subscriptions, positively re-
fusing to take another volume, or have Of
fered to assign their subscriptions, with a
GIT OF four OF five volumes, to any one who
would take the work off their hands, or have
sought to exchange the volumes already is

all who desire to investigate the merits of
the two cyclop@dias mentioned to make a
careful examination and comparison of the
volumes, side by side, and those who prefer
the foreign cyclop@dia, we can supply it at
from W to "a per volume, as far as issued,
and the balance at regular price. We will
cheerfully furnish volumes of both works
for examination. After eight years from
the publication of the first volume the En-

as far as the letter L. And we have no doubt
that the work can be bought for half price

CANVASS WILD MAN,
The "TimcSO Account Of Him Illustrated
In the Pictorial Press.

The Illustrated Police News of the
I'd instant, which has just come to
hand, contains the article on the Wild
Man of Camas Prairie which APP
peared in the TINES few weeks ago,
and half,page illustration of the
same.
The title of the engraving is "Ihe
Wild Man of Idaho-a determined
but unsuccessful effort to capture him
by two horsemen near Snake River"
The Wild Man is shown about six
feet high, thickly covered with hair, a
tusk protruding from each side of his
mouth, sharp claws for nails, and pre-
senting a most horrible appearance
all as described in the TIMES.
As another hunting party is organ
izing to capture the Wild Man, this
republication of the TIMEs's article
will be apt to increase the interest felt
on the subject.

THE UNITED STATES GRAND JURY.
Five OF Our Citizens Summoned to Boise,
to Help Form It-Why We're Messrs.
Parsons and Callahan Summoned.

to Help Form It-Why We're Messrs.
Parsons and Callahan Summoned.
Reuben Robbins, Deputy United
States Marshal for idaho, was on
Wood River, Saturday and Sunday
summoning citizens to go to Boise, to
serve on the grand jury, or to appear
rs witnesses before the grand jury.
That body is selected from % citizens
who are chosen from the various coun-
ties composing the district. In this
district there are five counties, viz:
Alturas, Boise, Owyhee, Washington
and Ada, and each county has been
required to supply five citizens to
serve. Those selected from Alturas
are J. B. Oldham, +. r. Cavanah,
Mans. Coffin, Ike Bingham, and
Wheeler. Warren p. Callahan and
George NJ. Parsons were also sum
moned as witnesses.
The pay allowed these men is only
70 cents per mile one way, and s3 per
day. Although this is paid in lawful
money, it would not cover the expens-
es of making such a trip, at any sea-
son of the year, if the officials were
not liberal in the matter of reckoning
time. Each man going from here,
however, will be allowed seven days
each way, to and from Boise, besides
20 cents per mile one way, and will
thus receive just about enough to de-
fray his expenses on the trip.
The reason for summoning Messrs.
Callahan and Parsons is not very APP.
parent, unless it be in view of the pos
sibility that the grand jury may indict
Messrs. Bixby and Leadley, or either
of them, for something in connection
with the recent election.
For judicial purposes Idaho is di-
vided into three districts, in which two
terms are held each year The seats
of the districts are at Boise, Malad
and Lewiston. The next term III this
district will be held at Boise, in April.
Next summer or fall, and every year
thereafter, there will doubtless be a
term of the United States court in

Odd Fellow Notes.

The Grand Lodge l. O. o. F. has
been in session at Nashville the present
week. We CLEAN the following from
the World:
The Grand Master at the last session
was not inclined to encourage any plans
of insurance or endowment as a part of
the Order.
The Sovereign Grand Lodge refused
to take direct action upon the question
of insurance or endowment, and with
an appearance of distrust in its feasibili-
ty relegated the matter to State juris-
diction.
McMinnville Lodge No. 146 was the
banner lodge of 1881, having made 80
limitations.
Five Odd Fellows halls have been
destroyed by fire during the past year.
Gen. w. B. Bate, the Democratic
candidate for Governor, has for many
years been an Odd Fellow in good
standing of Howard Lodge No. 10, al
Gallatin. He will be the first Odd
Fellow Tennessee has ever elected tt
that high office.
1t is a subject of interest and con
graduation that Odd Fellows period
Gals outnumber those of any Order, ar,
of the highest order of literary excel
lence, and are most earnestly and cor
daily supported.
Southern standard. (McMinnville, Tenn.) 1879-current, 1882-10-21
Demonstration il the Thief OF
Time.'

1t has been demonstrated over and
over again that the newly discovered
remedy, McElrees Wine OF Cardui will
cure the troublesome bearing down
pains in the back and loins, dizziness,
headache and other indescribable pains,
which make. many a woman's lite al
most constantly miserable. 1t has been
as often shown that the "Wine" will
correct all those arrangements peculiar
to females, which are yearly making
thousands of invalids and robbing fam
lilies of mothers, sisters and daughters.
Every mail bag carries letters to the
Chattanooga Medicine Company from
well known people and ladies express
ing their heartfelt gratitude for the re-
lief they have obtained by its use, after
years suffering. Out of 1000 test cases
$500 were cured after all usual rem
edies had failed. 1t is as certain in re-
suits as vaccination is in small pox, and
is accompanied by none of the risks,
since it is simple vegetable compound
harmless to the most delicate lady.
Yet, with all these facts before them,
there are many ladies who will contin-
ne to suffer monthly with diseases that
will as surely take them to an early
grave as consumption, when single
bottle of McElree's Wine of Cardui or
woman's Relief would restore them to
health and happiness. Will it not pay
any lady, no matter how slight her
difficulties, to send one dollar to a drug
store and get a bottle of this miracu-
lous remedy?
Dr. j. B. Ritchey, of this city, has
procured a supply of McElree's Wine
of Cardui direct from the Chattanooga
Medicine Company and will cheerfully
supply all who wish it.
