A Complete Record Of the Proceedings.

The middle of last January little squib ap-
peared in the PRESS to the effect that the sons
and daughters of old Oxford natives, or
former residents, but now residing in Portland
or vicinity would soon hold q reunion in this
city. The squib bore fruit, for a few days
thereafter-on the second of February-a
meeting of Oxford bears was held at the City
Building, Hon. John J. Perry presiding, and
a committee consisting of Messrs. Israel
Washburn, Jr., George f. Emery, ]. j. Perry,
S. G. Andrews, G. D. Brown, A. l.. Burbank,
DR.. H. P. Merrill and e. s. Osgood were ap-
pointed to make all the necessary arrange
ments for reunion to be held on March 4th,
the anniversary of the Incorporation of Oxford.
At later date the Falmouth Hotel was de-
cided upon as the place. An invitation was
extended to all to subscribe, who saw fit, and
the result which eliminated in the party OF
Saturday night must have far surpassed every
ones expectation.
According to the plan of the committee the
guests were invited to assemble at six o'clock,
and devote a couple Of hours to making each
other's acquaintance A handsomer, or more
noteworthy assemblage, has never graced the
spacious parlors of the Falmouth Hotel There
were ex-governors, ex-congressmen, judges,
United States and State officials Of every rank,
while the city of Portland herself contributed
many she had delighted to honor. They were
accompanied by their wives, sons and daugh-
ters, quietly yet elegantly dressed, splendid
specimens of the intelligence and the physical
beauty of the women and men of the Pine
Tree state. Surprises were frequent. "Why!
are you an Oxford bear?" was an expression
frequently heard There were several very
aged ladies and gentlemen among the guests.
Mr.. Reuel Shaw, aged S3, Mr.. Brett So and
Ruth Durell Wright, widow of Nathan
Wright, aged S3, being the Oldest. Then there
were Eaton Shaw and Charles Fobes and
others who closely pressed upon their heels in
the race of life. Mr. Reuel Shaw and Mrs.
Wright used to be playmates together in Ok
ford and met for the first time Saturday, in
seventyfive years. She was fine looking
old lady dressed in black and he bright and
fresh for his age. The conversation never
tagged an instant, but steady stream howed
on till dinner time. The executive committee
were here, there and everywhere attending to
the com fort of the guests, distinguished by
their handsome badges, fastened with beau
tiful boato,anaere. The following is o partial
list of the guests:

Responded to by Col. John NJ Adams of the
Argus
Mr. President, Ladies' and Gentlemen:-In
responding to this toast, perhaps l cannot bet
ter improve the very few allotted moments,
than by referring briefly to the recent rapid
growth of the newspaper press, growth
which is remarkable and very suggestive.
Amid the present multiplicity of journals,
which are sought for and priced by different
classes of readers, the inquiry comes very
naturally: What would the world do without
newspapers? The answer is equally ready:
The world will not do without newspapers. 1t
cannot do without them now. And yet all
through the long ages down to within three
centuries, the world did get along. without
them, and almost without substitutes for them,
as the news-crers of the olden time and the
written new-summaries of later periods were
hardly entitled to be called substitutes for
newspapers. The field for news was then very
limited, to be sure, but the methods for
gathering and distributing it were only of the
most primitive character. But within thirty
years. and especially during the last decade,
the progress of the newspaper-press has been
very marked. Its machinery has been so per-
fected by some of the most ingenious con-
trivances Of inventive skill, that now there is
practically no limit to the number of papers
that can be printed of a morning and sent by
early trains in all directions. The manufac-
ture of paper-lack OF which greatly retarded
larged BY improved methods and the utilizing
of new materials that the supply is ample to
meet all demands.
Along with increased capacity for making
newspapers has also come vastly greater facili-
ties for obtaining news; and as consequence
a largely increased demand for the newspapers
In forty years railroads enough have been
built to reach around ;he world eight times.
In thirty years sufficient telegraph lines have
been constructed to encircle the earth forty
times The railroads are thoroughfares of
trade and travel between the centres of popu-
lation in the same and adjoining countriesi
the telegraph, crossing oceans, has established
instant inter-communication between all i'm
portant points of the globe. The merchant
must now have his market reports not later
than the morrow of each day, and the intelli-
gent reader is content with nothing short of
good daily summary of the whole worlds news
after reading at breakfast extracts from Lon
don journals of the same morning, issued a
few hours earlier there than here.

which to gather intelligence of occurring

Our Candidate for Representative.


Our fellow townsman, Watts s. Hum
phrey, the Republican candidate for
representative in the legislature from
this district is being endorsed by the
press of the district, even the Democratic
papers acknowledging his ability and
fitness for the position. The Harbor
Springs Republican notices him as
follows:
"Mr. Humphrey is man who has al
ways been thorough Republican. He
is we'll qualified to fill the position, very
popular throughout the state, and ex-
ceedingly so in this district. He Is a
pioneer of northern Michigan, having
practiced law in Cheboygan for the past
fourteen years, and has established a
reputation which may well be envied.
In short, he is a good man for the place,
and If elected, of which there Is no dOnbt,
he will serve his district to the best Of
his ability. ..

Burglary.

The pawn shop and auction room Of
P. Y. Foote, near Third street bridge,
was burglarized last Saturday night.
Entrance was gained by breaking a
light of glass. Once inside, the rObber
filled a satchel with rsvOlvers. cutlery,
ETC., and proceeded to lay in stock Of
clothing for the winter. Having pro-
vided himself with all he deemed neces-
sary for his winters comfort in the way
of clothing, he made his exit. 1t being
Sunday, and not desiring to appear in
his old clothes, he proceeded to drees up,
stopping under the side walk for that
purpose. Having dOnned his new attire
he concluded to take a little rest, and
for q couch he spread some OvercOats he
had stolen on the ground, proceeded to
slumber, but slept little too long. 1t
proved a case where the early bird
caught the worm, for the proprietor be-
ing astir early in the morning discOv-
cred his place had been entered, and at
once began looking around for traces Of
the thief, and while doing this, discov-
cred the man enjoying his slumbers un-
der the walk, and made for him, His
approach awoke the sleeper and he start-
ed to run but was 0vertaken and cap
tured. ItlOoks as though 1t was sure
case, and the candidate was elected for
Jackson. He had his examination be.
fore Justice Fife, and was held for trial
at the circuit court.
