Fourth of July.

The committee of the city government on
the Fourth of July celebration held meeting
at the Mayors room Saturday evening. There
were present the Mayor, Aldermen Birnie,
Gould, Tukesbury, Winslow and Emery,
Councilman Hallett, Wilson, Prince, Nc
Aleney and Rand
The general idea of the celebration as ex-
pressed by the committee was to have an ora
tiou and reading of the Declaration of indie
pendence, music by several bands and musical
societies. with, perhaps, rowing regatta, bal
loon ascension, fireworks, a grand procession
of the military organizations and trades, and
possibly sham fight.
The Mayor appointed committee to invite
Hon. W. w. Thomas, Jr., to deliver the ora
tion on the occasion, and to Invite some young
lady or gentleman Of the High School under
graduates, to read the Declaration of Indepen-
dence.
A committee consisting of Messrs. Winslow,
Hawkes., Hallett, Prince, Wilson and John L.
Shaw were appointed to prepare programme
to be presented at the next meeting of the COM
mittee. Mr.. Hallett was appointed the COM
mittee to secure the cooperation of the eiti-
zens in the celebration. The musical part of
the programme was left to Mr.. John L. Shaw.
The military and fire department will be asked
to take part in the festivities of the day, and it
is hoped that the celebration will be one in
which all our citizens will take pride. Iii eiti-
zens should make up a subscription OF several
thousand dollars to add to the city appropria-
ton, the result would be an affair that you'd
call people to Portland from all parts of the
state and prove a grand time indeed.

An important reference has been going on
the past week in the Attorneys room in the
City Building before W W. Gross OF Bridgton,
Mr.. Gray of Mechanic Falls, and Mr. Jordan
of New Gloucester, as referees. 1t is a sub
mission under the statute between Mary A.
Mayberry OF Cape Elizabeth. against Melvin
Golf Of Gray. The question involved is the
amount due Miss Mayherry for timber cut by
Golf on her land in Gray, under a contract
made in May, 1874. Golf admits liability Of
about $3.50, but Miss Mayberry claims that the
balance due is about $1,000. She claims shat
all the timber he had was number one, while
Goff claims that about one-third was second
quality. She also claims that he had about
seven hundred thousand, and he admits OF
having only four hundred and sixty-six thou
sand. The contract price is also in dispute
The hearing occupied four days. The referees
fled their sealed report Saturday, which will
be opened next Tuesday. Lndley M. Webb
appeared as counsel fer Miss May berry. and A .
