The Brute Captured in oxford County

Probably no event of late has stirred up our
people more than the recent brutal attempt py
John Archibald to murder his wife on Thurs
day. the 9th inst, at their residence in this
city. 1t will be remembered the last seen OF
Archibald in Portland he was flying across the

peared under the Maine Central Railroad
bridge. The police hunted for him, tracked
him to Woodford's, there sscertained that he
doubled on his track and came back towards
the city, on the old towpath, and then lost
him.
Monday last Marshal Bridges, who had kept
officers on the lookout, received despatch
from gentleman at Gotham to the sf-
feet that he had seen Archibald In
that town that day. The MARSHAL
telegraphed back to put two officers On his
heels at once They followed him up as fast
as they could, making sure they had not lost
him, and reaching Bethel Wednesday night.
That night, however, Marshal Bridges had
dispatch from Portland gentleman at South
Paris. stating he had scen Archibald at South
Paris that afternoon and that he thought the
officers could get him. Captain Black and
Officer Frank Immediately left on the mid
night train for South Paris. There they ar
rived at e. m. yesterday and hiring horses
started to scour the country. They ascertained
that the night previous Archibald had been
given shelter by one Of the sslectmsn OF Nor
way who little dreamed who he was entertain
ing. and it was evident Archibald was begin
ming to work his way back towards homo. FL
nally the officers asesrtainsd pretty definitely
where Archibald was and Capt Black and
Officer Frank made arrangements with Shsr-
if Douglass of Oxford county for Archibaid's
arrest. Capt. Black came back on the ysstsr-
day afternoon train leaving Frank behind.
About p m. yesterday Sheriff Sawyer fs-
ceived telegram from Sheriff Deaglass, and
Marshal Bridges one from Oniccr Frank, say
ing that Archibald was arrested and would DO

coercion, and the justice of the demands Of the
League. He trusted that the day was not far
distant when the Irish peasant would be owner
of the soil he tills Mr.. Thomas paid glow
ing tribute to the valor and patriotism OF the
sons of Ireland in every war in which we
have been engaged. He believed the Irish
Land League was a great educational move
ment, and would tend to enlighten all in the
great labor questions which agitate the land.
Mr.. Thomas then gave his lecture which
evinced careful research, discriminating taste
and high literary merit. No abstract could do
even partial justice to Mr.. Thomas able
lecture. Every person who desire to know the

BABY BoARDERs.
What was Said of a Portland Child.


A Boston Globe reporter has been looking up
q baby boarding house in that city and after
entering onco fashionable street and pulling
the dislocatsd door bell Of dinsy brick house
was then led up at least four flights OF stairs,
carpsted with tattsred oil cloths. A number
of children of tender age were scattered along
on the various landings, and looked up in rec
IGNITION as 'Auaty" nurse of 10 years of age
swept by. On tho fourth landing there was
sound of infantins rsvelry, and the reporter
was ushsrsd into nursery. Several crib beds
were arranged side by side, sad therein swath-
ed in long clothes of white, lay six or eight
incipient American citizens in various stages
of development, some with plentiful growth
of curly hair others with painfully bare GRANT,
ums which had not yet lost their natal red
ness. But all, from the tiny individual who
had probably soiournsd in this world but few
weeks to the old veteran OF three months ex-
istenos, seemed highly satisfied with their pres
emit circumstances, and qsite Indifferent as to
their past history or future disposal. The visi-
tor was promptly invited to inspect each Of these
recent editions of humanity, and their indiYi-
dual sxesllsnces were enlarged upon inbsftting
terms
II noticed said the reporter that one Of your
newspaper advertisements stated that you Had
babies from the frat families in New England. :"
"Oh yes" frequently replied the nurse.
"In tho case Of child bsias adopted, do the
parents surrender all claims?"
20 yes. yea can have papers If You want
them. Thsss are signed BY tbs mother, who
gives up all legal right to ths child and prom
isss never to trosbls it, They gen orally keep
their agreement, although there are some az
captions. 1 know Of enc wealthy yeang lady
of Portland, Me-, whose child, strange As 1t
may seem, ~ adopted into another wealthy
Portland family Of her acquaintance. She fol-
lowed these people, it is said, all ovsr Europe
for two years in ORDER to DO near her little
daughter, and finally she claimed her. She
has since bean married to the father, and they
are now living happily, I An told, in = pretty
little villa some here on the coast of Italy. If

One of the voyages of the Allan line proved
disastrous, the Moravian which cleared from
here on the 29th of December, having gone
ashore on Mud Island, 10 miles from Var
mouth N. S., in fog on the 90th, and large
part of the cargo was lost or badly damaged.
The passengers and crew were saved, but the
vessel still remains where she went ashore. An
attempt is to be made to float her and bring
her to Portland for repairs. The Sandman,
which sailed from here on the 18th Of January
became disabled on the voyage by the loss of
her rudder and was towedsinto Liverpool. Aside
from these extraordinary incidents, the fleet
have performed their winter work with com.
