train from Boston, on the Boston and Maine
Railroad, left Kennebunk, a man evidently
under the influence of liquor arose from his

the platform. Other passengers, fearing thai

look after him Before they could reach the

the evening. notwithstanding these enor-
nous expenses, Abbey puts good face on the
matter and does not stint money for the per-
lection OF the mis-en-scene. A correspondent
saw wholly novel piece of stage machinery

Directors,

The property of the Company consists of $500
head of cattle, houses, six ranches, controlling
twenty miles of river front, which controls 2OO,-
600 acres of land houses, corrals and other build
ings necessary to 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 a 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 ia the cattle business rarely fails of returning
ratio OF profit fairly astonishing to those not ia
.miliar with the resources OF the great west. And
the almost absolute certainty with which the profit
can be relied upon, will at once 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
win 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-
tanties usually attending highly remunerative or
speculative business.
No safer investment could be offered.
The management of the Companys affairs is in
the hands parties whose long experen ces renders
them familiar with all details and are eminently fit
ted to conduct the ente rprise with success.

Mr.. Noyes. The parish then voted to extend

Copying New York Charities In London.
Pail Mall Gazette.

ran Mail uaZette.
1t is the boast of New-York that any
charity that can prove itself to be prac-
teal and well administered is never al
lowed to languish for want of funds in
that city. The Fresh Air Fund of the
New York Tribune was an instance.
The Tribune had only to show that for
every three dollars contributed poor
child could have a fortnight's vacation
in the country, and means were sup
piled for the holidays of 5000 children.
London has in this respect taken leaf,
though as yet, we fear, but small one,
out of the book of New York. Perhaps
some day we shall likewise initiate our
trans atlantic cousins in another very
practical and necessary form of charity,
the New-York Diet Kitchen Association.
The object of this society is to start in
poor districts well-equipped kitchens,
from which the poor, who suffer so much
in illness owing to the want of suitable
food, may, upon the written acquisitions
of physicians connected with the dis
pensaries, obtain proper curative diet,
such as beef-tea. mutton-broth, rice and
fresh milk-things apparently so SIM
pie, but which, as every doctor knows,
are most difficult to have properly pre-
pared in the narrow and disappointed
homes of the poor. There is no reason
why such kitchens should not be estab-
lished here on the wise non-pauperizing
principle of the provident dispensaries.
The good they might do in fastening
recovery, and converting the dubious
convalescence of SO many poor patients
into real restoration, is incalculable.

A Caller Whom the President was Glad
to See.

Philadelphla RECORD.
A dainty little girl of eight or nine
years, with dangerous big blue eyes,
appeared in the library of the White
House the other day when it was full of
great men OF one sort and another, and
quietly waited her turn to speak with
the tall, dignified gentleman with the
gray whiske1s and hair, and the sober
face and courteous manner down by the
bow window in the south end of the
room. BY and by her opportunity came.
She tripped forward modestly but brave
ly, and with "Good morning Mr.. Pres
ident," told her name and proflered her
request. She was niece of General
Winfield Scott Hancock, and she want
ed a few sweet flowers from the Execu-
tive conservatory for the Easter decor
alton of little Episcopal church. She
smiled archly as she told her errand, as
though she was sure of favorable re-
Spouse. The Presidents tired face
brighted with smiles as he turned from
the tiresome politicians to the sweet lit
tie face before him. 1t was like q cool
ing zephyr from the Chesapeake on a
hot summers day. He told her honestly
that he was very glad to see her and
then he gave her carte blanche in the
conservatory, and dismissed her with q
pleasant word or two about his own lit
tie girl who does so much to tighten up
his life in the White House. Her hand.
