There was no unusual stir at Mr. Blaine's res
idence. yesterday, and but few callers during
the day. As is his custom, Mr. Blaine took
a walk on the street in the fternoon. He
continued in communication wiIh New York
a greater portion at the day, receiving advices
from there. In the evening n party of
gentlemen from Portland, among whom were
Postmaster Clark Barker, District Attorney
w. +. Lunt, Col. Fred Dow, and Messrs. A.
w. Coombs, Albion Little, II. Farley and
Edward A. Noyes, called and paid tn 'ir re-
spects. They remained at the house several
hours. Information from New York was of
q most encouraging character Everything
possible is being done by the republicans
there TO unearth fraud and secure fair count.
The Official count commences today and it is
very doubtful if it will be completed before
the expiration ct .e,efal days, as matters
will be likely to are which will cause de-
lays. The count is looked forward TO with
much interests and well it may be, for as goes
, New York so goes the presidency. A most
infamous affair and one which clearly belongs
to the days of the rebellion, occurred during
a democratic celebration at Georgetown, ID.
c., this week. The American flag was
dragged in the dust at the rear of the process
sion and badly abused. This shows that the
Southern democratic have not forgotten their
old tricks vet.

A GRAND SIGHT
At bar Harber-As Unusaally Heavy Sea
The Whole Cove Boiling and seething
Like . whirlpool

The unusually heavy sea which prevailed
here Wednesday morning made walk along
the shore from the steamboat wharf to Crom
wells Harbor very interesting. At Birch
Point the waves we're dashing completely
over Pulpit Rock and washing against Mr..
Hardy's seawsll. Further along, where the
sea struck fairly against the rocks, the
scene looked wilder Balance Rock
was completely surrounded BY the
surging sea and the big waves roll
ed over it freely, often burving it from
sight. The surf was filled with float
ing debris-roots, timber, casks. tubs and
pals, washed from the shore where workmen
had been clearing up Miss Bowler's lot. and
building an additional seawall for Mr.. Mus
grave. The Musgrave wall WIS completely
under water, the sea making clean sweep
over it. AT the shore in front of DIR. Der
by's residence the rollers came in grandly,
pounding heavily on the rocky beach and
throwing the spray high in the air. In front
of the Sears cottage the ocean was fairly
boiling and the waves dashed high against
the wall, wetting the turf of the lawn with
clouds OF spray. But by far the grandest
spectacle of all was to be seen from the point
just beyond the grounds of Mr.. C. j. Morril,
looking north towards the harbor. The bluff
along Mr.. Morrilfs water front is quite high
and in one place a considerable cave has been
worn out in the rocky wall of ledge Here
the fury of the sea was at its height. Great
waves came rolling in one after another and
as they broke against the shore the
water rushed into the cavern with
deep booming sound. striking as
fiercely as if is would lift the rocky root from
its foundation. Great masses of spray were
thrown more than hundred feet Into the
air. The whole cove boiled and seethed like
whirlpool, while breaker after breaker
came rolling majesticaly around the point,
and beat against the rocks with ever increas-
ing violence until the tide was at its highest
point. 1t was grand and awful-no, a
grand and glorious spectacle, such as no
lover of nature could fail to admire.-M.

By the above statement it will be seen that
the Maine Central railroad makes a good
showing for the current year. having made a
gain OF net earnings of s26.657, and this
with an increased interest account added by
the building of the Mount Desert branch.
For the three months ending Sept. 30, 1884,
the passenger earnings were $1,000 in excess
of the same months for 1888. This increase
of passenger earnings is attributed to the
Mount Desert branch.

THE RED ETS.
Another Scientific Theory as to Their
Cause.

The red sunsets continue, notwith-
standing the recent storms, which is
accepted as conclusive evidence that
they are not caused by smoke from
forest fires. The fact that the sky has
reddish tint in the southwest long
after the sun has sunk below the hor-
lion, is accepted as evidence that the
glow is caused by something much
higher than the clouds. Professor
Lewis Swift, director of the Warner
Observatory at Rochester, \. z, ad-
vances new theory to account for
these brilliant sunsets. He has dis
covered that the Pons comet, which
had single tail in 1872, has double
one now, the longer seven, and the
shorter, three degrees. 1t is under
going changes as it approaches
the sun, and can be seen with the
naked eye early in the evening. Swift
asserts that the red sunsets are due K
extraneous matter which came int
our atmosphere, and refracts the rec
rays of the sun. What the matter is
it is impossible to say, but it is no

WE learn from the Haley Times
that General Erskine Il. Cunningham
was shot in the wrist the other dav
by Wells, the agent and telegraph
operator at Tikura, a railroad station
twenty miles south of HALEY. Wells,
who was boarding with Mr.. and Mrs.
Cunningham, made improper propo-
sails to Mrs. Cunningham, and on re-
peating his advances on the 23d of
last December, Mrs. Cunningham
struck him blow back of the ear
with poker. The General coming
IN while she was wrought up, she
told him all about Wells advances,
but made him promise not to Kill
Wells. The General thereupon call
ed Wells out of the tent and said:
'sYou dirty cur, you have insulted
my wife, and l ought to kill you
But, at her request, l refrain. To.
morrow will be payday. will give
you 80 days more to leave here. II
you don't go, I'll kill you as | would
dog"
The man at once wrote out his res
ignation, which he showed the Gen
eral, and said that he would mail it
He then changed his boarding house
and the two men never met again I'm
til the afternoon of the 4th, when tn
t General went up to the station t
send some money to Shoshone. FL
was unarmed. As he got to the sta
; ton Wells opened the door and dis
charged the contents of a shotgun g
e him. The General received the loa
| in the left wrist. Wells then pickle
, up rifle, and fired two shots as tn
General was retreating toward h
i cabin. Wells, and Jules Toponc
who was witness of the occurrence
were lodged in Jail.
