Riverside Items.

The annual reunion Of the Coleman family
was held in Liberty Hall, Tuesday, the 2Sth
inst Nearly 30 me mbers of the family were
present, representing eleven towns and three
States. The day was spent in social and liter
airy exercises A basket lunch was served at
noon, and all present declared the occasion
pleasant and successful. The family is one of
the Oldest in this section of the State, dating
back to 1902, the family record including ten
generations. An association was formed
three years ago, and an effort is to be made to
look up the various branches Of the family and
increase the membership Of the association so
that future reunions may even be even more
extensive in scope and character.
A party of over 60 from Riverside enjoyed a
pleasant excursion on Tuesday to Bradley's
Island, in China Lake, near East Vassalboro.
This island is becoming quite resort for
small pleasure parties, who desire day of va
ried recreation with the absence of the IN
pleast features of large and too frequently
mixed crowd. The lake is one Of the most
beautiful sheets OF water in the State, and the
island is well fitted up with bowling alley
croquet ground, dancing hall, and other facil-
tiles of amusement. The genial proprietors,
Mr. a. NJ. Bradley &c Son. provide ample
means of transportation TO the island, having
small steamer and several fine sail and row
boats, and extend every courtesy to visiting
parties. Mr.. E. G.. Rideout, the New York
publisher, was on the island during the day.
The Maine Manufacturing Company propose
soon to increase the force in their box factory
so as to run night and DAY. They are engaged
ia the manufacturing Of small wooden boxes
for jewelry, silver Ware and almost every other
conceivable purpose. The process of working
up the wood is a very interesting one and the
fineness and delicacy of some of the work is
quite surprising. DELTA.

NATIONAL LONGEVITY UNION.


An Organization to Prevent Disease and
Lessen Dostsrs' Bills.
ERIE, Pa, Aug 3i.-A new and unique IA
tiensl organization was formed here Wednes-
day, having for its primary OBJECT the extern
sion of human life. 1t is called in its charter
"The National Longevity Union," the SUI
preme lodge and central offices of which are to
be located in this city, aud officers appointed to
institute subordinate lodges o, unions through
the State and country. In the articles of in
corporatiod it is stated that the objects shall be
to promote fraternity and socia bility, health
and happiness; to prevent disease by educat-
ing its members in the laws OF life and health;
provide skillful medical advice and attendance
upon an economical and scientific basis, and to
promote the general welfare of humanity. The
capital stock of the Union is 900 shares of
$40, nearly all of which has been subscribed
here. This, II is stated, is merely % create
fund for necessary expenditure In starting the
ed, consists OF president, vice president sec
retary, cashier and treasurer, five directors and
three physicians as an advisory board.
The promoters claim that one-hslf of the
diseases which sweep away humanity may be
prevented Just as effectnally as grades of crime
prevented by organized efforts. The mem
bers will be required to pay one dollar per
month for man and his wife, and ten cents
additional for each child. For this amonnt
they will be entitled to medical attendance
free of other charge, the condition being to
follow the sanitary Instructions of the visiting
physician, whose duty it will be to visit all the
homes and keep medical history of MEM
bers. AS he is paid by the Longevity Union
aud not by patients, it will be to his interest TO
check the spread of disease All the visiting
physicians are required to send in a report of
their sick, accompanied by method of treat
meni, with results. The medical advisory
board examineitbese reports and use them for
geseral information and instruction. Where,
in cases OF epidemics, ETC., the treatment of
one visiting officer is found to be successful in
a larger degree than others, his prescriptions
are 10 be forwarded to the district where the
least amount of success has been obtained.
funeral benefit funG is attached, by which
widows receive from S130 to $780, at the death
of the husband, for funeral expenses.

Meetings at Old Orchard.

OLD OOhtdAhOt aug. OA'
Summer yields up the scepter with her
sweetest smile. The fragrance of the balsamy
pines mingled with the invigorating breath of
Old Ocean make an air to breathe which is
reason enough for living.
The audience today has been fully up to the
average. Spirited social meetings, impressive
altar services and stirring sermons have filed
the time from dawn till eventide.
Rev. e. l. d. Pepper, Of the Central Church,
Philadelphia, preached at 10 a. M: "And for
their sake sanctify myself, that they also
might be sanctifed through the truth"-John

England Conference. preached an able sermon
on Personal Holiness" taking for his text,
loved, let me cleanse ourselves from all filth
ness OF the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness
in the fear of God"
The meeting for young people led by Mrs
Inskip was attended with great interest. Re-
quests for prayer and professions of faith fully
occupied the time. The meeting was pro-
tracted considerably beyond the hour for clos
ing.
Rev. Mr.. Griffin preached an instructive
sermon at 7.S0 p. N.
The new system Gf lighting is a great inn
provement upon the lamps. The effect is
charming.
DR. Charles Cullis was present at the after

FISHING FLEET.
A Gale Sweeps over the Grand
Banks.
Scores OF Fishing Dories Wrecked.
From Sixty to Eighty Lives Lost.

81. JOHN, N. f., Aug. S1.--From several arr
rivals within the past twenty-four hours from
the Grand Banks intelligence Of alarming dis
asters to the fishing fleet have been received.
The most reliable and definite comes from the
Gloucester schooner Wachussett. She was
anchored about twenty miles southwest OF Vir-
gins and just escaped the fury of the storm,
and ran for the land. Whilst coming In she
passed through vast amount of wreckage,
everything indicating work of destruction.
The gale arose from the eastward shortly after
sunrise on Sunday last A heavy sea rapidly
piled mp and became confused and chopplng by
the wind veering to the north-northeast. For
thirty miles in the schooner's course wreckage
was encountered on every side. Dories in tens
were seen bottom up, oars fishboards and other
wrecked material were passed from time to
time. One French fishing brig alone lost four
dories with all hands. The vessels docks
were swept, cables parted and anchors lost
The general estimate at present puts the loss
of life from sixty to eighty souls, while mate
rial damage TO the fleet is iDcaleulable. At
the time the gale sprung up there were assum-
edly 1000 dories away at their travis. 1t will
be fortunate If the disaster 30 the Great Bank
feet is circumscribed within this report.

THE PRESIDENTS PARTY.


NO occasion Tor Sensational Reports.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.-The Presidential
party remained at Allison yesterday SO an ex-
cursion could be made to a narrow point of
view from which the grand canyon could be
seen. The camp was in a beautiful grove and
the day was very interesting but uneventful.
All were to start for the Lower Falls yesterday
morning as the trip is drawing to an end. This
is probably as good an opportunity as can be
presented to refer to the inventions OF news
papers which have continually published pre-
tended special kilograms purportiDg to be
from correspondents with the party. No spec
ial correspondents have been with the party.
The falsehood of the pretended specials is ap-
parent to any one knowing the distances to be
travelled in this region. Correspondents
would have to transfer themselves and send
reports on one day over distances which can.
not possibly be passed in three or four days.
Their silly stories of personal incidents are not
Of sufficient consequence TO be denied, but the
stories of danger to the President and his be-
ing in bad health go beyond the bounds of per-
missible boaxes, as misleading the public In
matter of general interest, and for this reason
it should be known that there have not been
at any time the slightest grounds for any such
stories. The only other falsehood worthy of
mention as being subject of public interest
is that on this journey any attention has been
given by the President, the Secretary OF War
or General Sheridan to new policy of dealing
with the indiana. Ii such matters were to be
dealt with the Secretary Of the Interior would
be present. 1t Is sufficient to say that many
newspapers have been fighting men OF straw.
