A Hard Time.

Schooner Express as brought here Thurs
day morning, from Richmond's Island, by tug
Salem, Capt. Matthews. who also took up
schooner Adelaide, from Machias for Boston.
Soon after Capt. Ingersoll, of the schooner
Express, left to come here for assistance, four
men boarded the schooner from the beach
Capt. Ingersoll's crew was then on board OF
another vessel. They soon after tried to go
aboard their own schooner, but were ordered
OIL by the wreckers. One OF the men tried to
go on board but was pushed back into the boat
BY one OF the wreckers, who cried, 'We have
charge Of this schooner and propose to keep
her, law or no law" When the tug arrived
Capt. Ingersoll ordered the wreckers to leave
the schooner. They were reluctant to 90, but
found themselves greatly outnambered, and
were obliged to make off.
Capt. Cole, of the schooner Adelaide, had
been for several days off Richmond's Island,
and finding another storm coming Oh, his sails
too stiff to be handled, and his vessel beyond
his control, he signalled for the tug Salem, and
at dark Capt. Matthews started for Portland
with two schooners in tow. He says he never
experienced such a night. The wind blew
fearfully. There was q thick storm, and to
make matters worse the schooner Adelaide
twice broke loose, and he was obliged to follow
her, as she drifted away, and recover her. In
the midst of the storm, Capt. Cole was thrown
violently to the deck and seriously injured,
having several ribs broken.
The two schooners are now here. The Ade-
laide is not very badly damaged; the Express
is almost perfect wreck. To repair her
would cost about as much as she is worth. Her
owner is poor man, and is not supposed to be
insured.

The Charity Ball.

There was very handsome party gathered
at City Hall last evening, including many of
our best known society people. The toiettss
were very handsome, aud the music by Chan
der inspiring. The space under the rear gel-
lery was fashioned into salon by means of
rich handsome porNeres, and handsomely fur
nished. Massive old-fashioned can
delabra supported wax candles whose
rays flashed back prismatic colors from
the gemmed fingers of the fair aides who dis
pepsed tea and coffee from rare old China. At
intermission Mrs. Ulmer furnished an excel
lent supper in Reception Hall. An order of
twelve dances was fully enjoyed and it was
late when the tired dancers took their leave.
The ball was under the management of Mes.
danes F. 81. Gerrsh, p. Fl. Brown C. W. God
dsrd, A. W. Longfellow, Howard Gould, G.
M. Moore, Stephen Berry, W. f. Milliken
and j. Z. BlaboD. The floor was under the
management OF Messrs. A. s. Gibson, w. r.

A complaint was made to Capt. Black last
evening. at the station, that some one had en-
tered house No. 8 Vine street, and taken a
shawl and an overcoat. Previous to this sew
eral complaints of theft had been made.
While the complainant and the officer were
talking about the affair, the corridor door was
suddenly opened, and policeman Caleb New
comb entered, bringing rather rough looking
man of medium sizs, who carried on his arm
the shawl and coat taken from the Vine street
house, together with part of the property of
Hamilton and Silver, the two seamen, whose
vessel was broken into Christmas night. The
fellow was searched, and other things brought
to light, but he stontly refused to give any in
formation to the officers, and declared that be
would die in his cell before he would give his
name.

Now that the rush and hurry of Christmas
is over let us give thought to the Little
Women and the noble charity for which they
are working-the Old Mems Home. New
Years Eve is right upon US, and all who want
to dance the old year out and the new year in
can have an opportunity at the fancy dress
party to be given by the Little Women in City
Hall. Then there is the court minuet, and
still later we are told that an exhibition by the
drill squad of the Portland Wheel Club has
been kindly volunteered. In union there is
strengtb,-the Little Women, the Annex and
the Wheel Club. May they meet with that
success they so well deserve.

mas Club stands for money!
The chldrens fees with small donations
now amount to little over hundred dollars.
This goes in many directions, but there is
need which children cannot meet with their
small savings. The Provident ssociation re-
this direction and from the Associated Chari-
ties we hear of great and immediate need. To
the older friends Of the Club, l would say
that any contribution made to Mrs. Henry
Taylor, 81 oak street, or to my address, 14S
Spring street, will be faithfully expended for
this purpose. ELLA S. SARGENT.
