The evening light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1881-1883, 1882-10-23

Introduced Gov. Stockdale to the poblic on
Saturday evening, in doing SO the doctor en-
dorsed the Governors democracy, which was
very generous of him, although he could not
tell whether Stockdale was for or against tariff.
then the good old doctor took his seat near an
open window, and before Stockdale had pro-
ceeded very far upon the tariff question the
doctors heels were seen to fly up and his body
to disappear through the window; q loud boom.
like that of fourth of July cannon, was neat
heard when the doctor struck pile of lumber
under the window. The Governor stopped in
his speech, his cheek blanched, the horrible
thought passed over his mind that he had COM
mitted lnurder-had killed . worthy citizen
in his effort to force free trade upon the
community, happily the accident was not fatal.
The Governor delivered a telling speech, but
Graves summersault through the window
made it impossible to recollect the speech.
and Stockdale was forgotten in the excitement
that followed.
The evening light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1881-1883, 1882-10-23

Governor Stockdale, a gentleman we'll
known in the state, was invited by the Han
cock club to deliver speech on last Saturday
evening, the new court room, still unfinished,
was chosen for the occasion.
After good dealof drumming on the part
of the drum corps, such as starting report
that Wash Jones would speak, &c., some fifty
persons were gathered in. DR.. r. L. Graves,
the leader of the Hancock club, introduced
Gov. Stockdale in very appropriate manner
and then took a seat near an open window,
and at the first statement made by Gov. Stock
dale, or as we may call it 'tbe first round"
the doctor fell out of the window. We give
the incident as we find it in the Express:
Gov. F. S. Stockdale was introduced on
the platform in the unfinished courthouse by
DIR. r. L. Graves in few brief, but very char
acteristic remarks.
The speaker said he was not candidate for
any Office in the gift of the people, but simply
desired to say few words on a question which
was of paramount importance to the people
all over the 10th district as we'll a. in his own,
and that was the tariff. The:.tax paid by the
people of the United States for the support Of
the government last year amounted to $685.
100000. This was the income from the tariff
paid by our people, and no one else. VIVA,
is tax? 1t is tariff The constitution Of
the United States says the government shall
not take private property from the people for
public use without paying for it.
The address was here interrupted by Dr..
Graves falling from the window just back OF
the stage, to the ground, distance of twenty
feet.
When it was learned the doctor was not
seriously hurt Gov. Stockdale continued"
But the rest of the address was only wasted,
the fate of the good old doctor, so long the
leader OF the true and tried democracy, alone
interested the meeting. 1t will be observed
that the exact words used by Gov. Stockdale
at the moment of the catastrophe were :
"What is a tax! 1t is tariff. The constitu-
ton of the United States says the government
shall not take private property from the peo-
pie for public use without paying for it."
We reject the theory that the good doctor
had fallen asleep SO early in the sction-we
incline to the opinion that this astounding
proposition, -associating tariff, and tax
! with the constitutional provision regarding
confscations was what SO astonished the doc
tor that his head lost its balance and in the
whirl bis body was thrown backwards and
hence the terrific fall, which we are heartily
glad to chronicle did not result seriously.
Great excitement and concern was every
where caused by the announcement the
Doctor had fallen out of a second-story win
dow, and every one expressed qualification
that he was not hurt.

Two Mexicans named Ureste and Martinez,
late last week, brought in bale Of cotton
weighing over 600 pounds, and deposited i,
with man named Jean, dealer on the other
side Of the San Pedro. Jean, without author
ity of the owners, delivered the bale to man
named Rimald, who sold it for 500 and has
absconded to Mexico with.the..proceeds. The
Mexican owners Of the cotton are poor people
and seeing that Jean had no authority to de-
liver the bale to Rimald, friends are using
their Influence to make Jean pay the value Of
the cotton.

Joseph K. Merrill.


We regret to be called upon to announce
that Joseph K. Merrill died at his residence in
Falmouth yesterday afternoon. Mr.. Merrill
was horn in Falmouth, Aug. 11th, 1926. When
about % years of age he came to Portland to
live, engaging first in the hardware trade and
afterwards in the lumber business under the
firm name of Stevens & Merrill. After living
twenty-five years in Portland he moved TO
falmouth about eight years ago where he has
since resided. For several years he has been
CO slderably out of health and last spring he
took severe cold from which he never recov-
cred. For the last few weeks he has failed
rapidly and has been great sufferer, although
his end was peaceful. Mr.. Merrill, at the time
of his death, was d member of Maine Lodge of
Odd Fellows of this city and was also justice
of the peace. He was formerly member of
Plymouth Church of this city bat for the last
two years has -boan Hnost -eHaraplarJ s>ad
worthy member of the First Congre gational
Church, Falmouth. He leaves a wife and two
children and will be sadly missed, not only in
his own family but in the church and CON-
munity to which he belonged. He was man
of sterling qualities of character and was
greatly beloved and respec ted by those who
knew him.
The funeral will occur a. his late residence
Friday afternoon at 30 oc lock.

CUMBERLAND.
Dedication OF the New Methodist Church.

The new Methodist church dedicated yes
terday afternoon at Cumberland is very neat
and tasty structure, having fine situation
and was dedicated free from debt. For this
fact as we'll as for the church ITSELF great Grad
it is due to the pastor Rev. e. W. Hutchln-
son, who is also pastor at Falmouth Foreside.
The house cost some $500, and will comforta-
bly, seat 200 persons. From statement by the
pastor preceding the dedication, We learn that
the LOT was donated by lady of Portland, and
that friends in Portland and Yarmouth rs well
as all the people of the vicinity have gener-
ously contributed Miss Nettie Milliken gave
the proceeds of concert. The beautiful vane
on the little spire was the gift Of Mr. Whitney
of the firm of Kendall & Whitney OF this city.
The desk, a fine mahogany one, was presented
by the First Parish church OF Yarmouth, and
was remodeled from one built 70 years ago,
and long used by Rev. David Shepley and DR..
Akin. The Bible was given by A. l.. Weed,
Esq, of Boston, the hymnbook by j. 2. Magee
of the same city. A set OF elegant pulpit
chairs was the gift of Miss Gertrude and her
bert st. Clair, In memory of sainted mother
who had long wished to see such place OF
worship in the neighborhood, but had died
without the sight.
The dedication services, before congrega-
tion larger han could be accommodated, were
participated in by Rev. A. G. Trafton of North
Yarmouth, Rev. DR.. Torrey of Yarmouth,
Rev. Mr.. Perry OF Cumberland, Rev. Mr..
Cook of Great Chebeague, and Rev. d. Nc
Keown of this city, who preached the sermon
from Isaiah 2S:16-f Behold, lay in Zion Tor
a foundation &c. The singing by yolun-
teer choir led by DR.. Burbank of Cumberland,
was excellent. The day, one of the finest OF
the autumnal season, aud the rare luxury OF
dedicating a church without an agony of effort
at raising money, altogether made up very
ENJOYABLE occasion.

The Western Union Telegraph did admira-
BILE work on election night. Never had such
mass of report oeen crowded upon them, and
the storm badly impeded the service, yet a
larger Dumber of towns than usual Was return
ed with great promptness. 1t is very dita-
cult task to obtain returns from one hundred
and fifty different offices, that shall all be IN
the same form and without error; but Superin-
tendent Bedlow and Manager Livermore, by
personal supervision, accomplished the feat IN
a manner that was beyond criticism. When
heavy rain comes after dry season telegraph
lines work unusually hard, and in this case a
magnetic torn west followed the close of the
storm there, aud the aurora boreals opened
the circuits and threw out the qoadruplex in
