Charged with lncendiarism,

A case of alleged incendiarism has caused
much excitement in Pittsfeld. The Advertise
er OF that town has the following: A week
ago last Monday evening, the house of Thomas
j. Wright was discovered on fire. When the
fire was first discovered in this village the
flames we're plainly seen, and the ell of the
house had the appearance of being completely
enveloped by fire. By the time the engine ar
rived it had died down somewhat, and was
easily put out by the crowd with pals of water
The fire started in the attic of the ell, and
burned through the roof in some places, but
the damage by fire was comparatively SIN all
The fact that the buildings were fully insured.
and that the fire burned SO briskly at first,
caused the belief to arise in many minds that
kerosene had been spread on the roof and the
house set on fire for the purpose of defrauding
the insurance company. This belief was great.
ly emphasized when the house was discovered
to be again on fire on the following Saturday
morning.
This time the fire started in the attic of the
main part of the house, but willing hands ex-
tinguished it before it had gained much head
way. On this occasion kerosene was found on
the attic floor and the beams. T. j. Wright
the owner of the house, was arrested and
brought before Justice Moses Maxfield Man
day, charged with having set fire to if, but the
warrant being defective he was discharged.
On Tuesday, Mrs. Miriam j. Wright, his
mother, was arrested on complaint of T. S.
Dexter, Esq, on suspicion that she had set the
ire to defraud the insurance company, and she
was brought before Justice Maxfield on that
day. An Adjournment was had till Thursday
IN order to collect evidence in relation to the
insurance. The hearing is still in progress
The Portland daily press., 1883-10-30

The property Of the Company consists of $500
head of cattle, houses. six ranches controlling
twenty miles of river 'front.' which controls 2Oo,-
900 of land, houses, corrals and other build
ings necessary conduct the business, located in
Tonic Basin, centre part of Arizona Territory.
It has long been known that the raising OF Cattle
in Texas, NewMexico, Arizona and other States and
Territories of the great west is and for many years
has been immensely profitable and the fame of the
Cattle Kings is world wide. Starting with small
means, these men within comparatively short
time, attained positions in the World Of business
and finance rivalling the famous Bonanza Kings of
the Pacific Coast Their success shows the results
of intelligent and persevering efforts and the short
time which has been necessary for the achievement
of that success proves conclusivey that investment
made in the cattle business rarely fails of returning
ratio of profit fairly astonishing to those not ia
milar with the resources of the great west And
the almost absolute certainty with which the profit
be relied upon, will at commend this class
of investment to anyone who will take the trouble
to study the history of Stock in the western portions
of the United States, and more particularly Texas,
New Mexico and Arizona. Capital invested in cattle
will return larger per centage of interest than is
returned by any other legitimate investment and at
the same time be free from the risks and uncer-
tainties usually attending highly remuneratve or
speculative business.
No safer investment could be offered.
The management of the Company's affairs is in
the hands of parties whose long experiences renders
them familiar with all details and are eminenty fit
ted to conduct the enterprise with success.
From the earnings each year after payment of
expenses the holders of the preferred stock are to
receive dividend of per cent, three per cent

Paris.

The trite old saying that Cali good Ameri-
cans hope to go to Paris when they die" has
had good deal of its force lost since Mr..
St0ddard prepared his lecture on Paris and
secured his illustrations of that queen of the
European capitals. Such an evening as that
passed in City Hall last night went far to re-
concile the average American to the fact that
for him in vain do European steamers lessen
the time between the new and old worlds, and
In vain do Cook and Tourgee put down the
price of three months trip within the hun
dreds. The very places that to him have be-
come household words from historical associa-
tion were put before his eyes last night in such
magnificent form and SO aptly and beautifully
described-not by pages Of guide book but by
striking incident, happy anecdote, or witty
mot.
In would be unnecessary to enumerate all
the places thrown upon the screen. There
was the Paris of the historian, of the artist and
of the pleasure seeker The beautiful Mad
elaine, with it's chaste and classic Grecian
sculpture; the gorgeous halls of the Tuilleries
OF 1870 and the mournful relics of the palace
Oh 1883; the Louvre, the treasure-house of
Europe, saved from petroleum and dynamite
by the valor and brains of three men; the
superb "arc de PEtoile' with the twelve
avenues stretching away frem it in the form of
q star; the Vendome column by moonlight
from whence so many Frenchmen have flung
themselves to perdition wearied of absinthe
and grisettes; the Luxembourg gardens. Place
de la Bastille, and the Boulevards teeming
with life. But it was reserved for the magnif-
cent views of the Grand Opera House to fairly
capture the audience. 1t doesn't seem possible
that more life-like scenes could be thrown upon
the canvas. The pictures of the toyer the
grand staircase, the Hobbies, were marvels of
effect, and the view of the exterior of the
building by moonlight ELECTED loud applause.
The next lecture will be given Monday eve
nirg On Berlin and Sans'Scuci."

Post ONCE Renairs.

The repairs on the drains at the post ofic,
are about completed. Mr.. French, the gentle
man in charge, says all the old drains have
been taken up and replaced with iron pipes
having about three times tt 9 pitch of the old
brick ones. The new pipes are six inches in
diameter. The soil pipes have been ventilated
to some extent. New water closets, with two
exceptions, have been put in throughout the
building. By the old plan the air supply for
the heating apparatus was taken in below the
cellar windows and carried in large brick ducts
along the cellar floor. These ducts have been
replaced by short and direct connections at a
much higher level, and remote from all con-
tact with the drains or ground air.

fOhILAhD GAS CO,
Mayor Deering read the following preamb Bile
aud order
Whereas, it being, In the opinion of this
Board, essential to the health, safety and es-
pecially for the convenience of the inhabit-
ants OF the city, that the gas metre now in the
City Building shall ba allowed to remain
there, and no interference made with the
clts use OF gas. by the officers or employees of
the Portland Gas Light Company; and as by
section II, of the act OF Incorporation of said
Company, the Mayor and Aldermen for the
tine being shall at all tunes have the power
TO regulate, restrict and control the acts of
said corporation, which may 10 any manner af-
iect The health, safety or convenience of the
Inhabitants of said city, therefore be 1t
ordered, That said corporation is hereby for
hidden, ny its officers or employees, to remove
tho gas metre from the City Building or in
any way to interfere with the free use of gas
Ia any part of said building.
Mr.. Hawkes. asked the Mayor what assur-
auce he had that the Gas Company proposed to
interfere with the metre, Or with the use Of
tic gas.
The Mayor replied that he had assurances
aud that the statutes quoted showed the au-
thority of the Board of Mayor and Aldermen
in the matter.
Mr.. Hawkes. asked by what authority the
electric lights were put in the hail.
The Mayor replied, under direction of the
committee on public buildings.
Mr.. Hawkes. said he thought the same COM
mittee had equal jurisdiction to deal with the
gas company.
Mr.. Winslow approved of the order and
thought it proper one.
Mr.. Emery said as gas agent he made
the usual contract with the Gas Company for
supplying the city with gas.
The Mayor said this was matter that did
not come in the city gas agents province.
Mr.. Melcher thought that until the Board
was satisfied the Gas Company intended to
take any steps calculated to do harm 10 the
building or inconvenience the citizens, the pas
age of the order might seem uncalled for.
The Board, however, passed the order.
Adjourned.

A Hard Time.

The schooner Connecticut of Bangor, Cap
tain Leathers, from Northport, L. l., with clay
for the Portland Stone Ware Company,
while off Minot's Light, on October Goth. met
with gale which carried away the outer jib,
main peak, and the flying jibstay parting let
everything down under the bow. The vessel
became unmanageable and nearly drifted on
to the ledge. The vessel began TO leak badly
and the men had hard time pumping. The
water got into the clay and the clay choked
the pumps. Finally the crew managed to an
Choir the vessel in Boston Bay on the 2lst,
from whence she set sail with a deet Of over
100 sail, arriving here yesterday.

RAILWAY NOTES.
The Canadian Pacific and the Wheat
Carrying Trade of Manitoba.

n speciai 10 the Boston Herald from Winni-
peg yeuterdsy says: A question agitating
farmers in Manitoba is whether the Canadian
!. Pacific is to have complete mosopoly of the
wheat carrying business to the( injury Of the
producers. At present the province has almost
no provisions for storing and hauling grain.
Even Winnipeg is without elevators The
principle of granting leases at nominal rent
to parties putting up warehouses along the
railroad sidiDgs, on condition that at certain
time they mast build steam elevators or re-
move the fiat warehouses, tended to throw the
trade into the hands of a comparatively few
people, and prevent competition among the
buyers, and was opposed to the interests of the
farming community, and also TO those of the
railway company. A bonus has been offered
for an elevator at Winnipeg, but no one dares
build under the policy of General Manager
Vanhorne of the Canadian Pacific. He has
stated that il was intended to make Port
Arthur the shipping point, and not to carry
gram around Lake Superior, and that people
might as well throw their money into the Red
river as put it into elevators in Winnipeg.
The sslong haul' On the Canadian Pacific rail-
road is really tie haul to Port Arthur. The
La1adfaf Pacific boats will take export grain
and deliver it to eastern Connections of the
subsidized railway. Grain at Port Arthur will
be unable to go away from the Canadian Pa
cific charge till it reaches tide water, and,
when the line around the North shore OF Su-
perior shall have been built, will have merely
the choice of the Canadian Pacific com pany's
all rail on this roads combined rail and water
route, It looks as if the Canadian Pacific in.
tended to discriminate. Nobody wants to
venture money in elevators that must depend
for accommodation wholly on one-and that a
hosti.e-railway company. Wheat is now 90
cents in Winnipeg, which is good price in
spite of the trouble.
Minor Notes.
The Bangor Wing says the success of the
Green Mountain railroad has led to the in
sugurstion Of another railroad enterprise on
Mount Desert Island, which is to construct a
narrow gauge railway from Bar Harbor dis
tauee Of about three miles to Eagle Lake to
connect with the steamer Wauwinet, which
runs to the foot of Green Mountain Among
those interested are Payson Tucker and w. A.
Allen. of the Maine Central.
The gross earnings of the Eastern railroad
for the month of September, 1883, were $780,
05344; for the same month in 1882 they were
S342 636 So; decrease, $2,553.45. The gross
earnings of this road for the eleven months
ending August 81, aggregated 1924, 900, an
amount that exceeds ny over $4,000 the total
gross income of the whole of last year.
The annual report Of the Boston & Maine, it
Ia said, will show gross earnings for the year
ending September 80 of $290O,OOO, as against
81 $50, 730 last year, increase of $139, 270 or
fully $900 600 more thau had been calculated
upon.
