" ung Man Dangerously Shot-Nan Killed
in a Well.
Spencer Bulletin: On last Wednesday
Lewis Perrine, after days work in the
cornfeld concluded to take his gun and 90
to Little Creek and take battle and shoot
any game that might fall in his way. He
reached a point on the creek about a
quarter Of mile from his residence, where
he placed the gun against pile Of cross
Ties, undressed and took battle. He re-
turned, dressed himself and sat down on the
cross-ties to tie his shoe when it occurred to
him that he had better move the gun, as
the muzzle was almost against his body. In
trying to move the gun it was discharged,
the contents being received in the region Of
the abdomen, the ball passing nearly
through the body. He walked nearly home
when he called to his wife, who came to his
assistance Drs Thompson and Hall were
called and the ball extracted. At last &C
count the patient was doing as well as could
be expected.

ternoon the scene Of wrestling match be

manner that a sudden jerk on the part Of
his antagonist fractured the limb near the
ankle JOINT, He was conveyed to bis home

Saturday Nights Concert the Usual Flat
tering Success.
The fifth grand concert by the Opera
House Band, at the Capitol Saturday, was
as usual successful in the superlative de-
gree, both in the immense throngs Of people
in attendance and the unusually happy selec-
tons of musical numbers on the pro-
gramme. The baritone solo of Mr.. c. f.
Brandfass was received with rounds of ap-
plause, demonstrating that the old familiar
air still retains its strong hold upon the
public, and touches at each rem
dition chord that can never be silenced.
The medley Of Southern plantation songs
introduced numerous old popular airs, and
was received in fattering manner by the
spectators. The programme was as follows;
Part LIST, Beggar Student, March,
Bach, Medley Overture, Soldiers
Dream, F. Wilson; Old Folks at Home,
Stewart. Part I'd, Medley selection OF
Southern plantation songs, l.. Courteno;
Schuberrs Serenade, D. Moeller; Plume
Dor Waltz, F. Waldenfel Part Sd, Venus
March, j. 0berhauser; Grand selection
from II Trovatore, +. Cook;
Crown Jewell, Polka, Southwell.
Pant 4th: Lustspiel, Keler Bella; the
dancing music, polka mazurka, J. Strauss;
quadrille, Zikof.
NOTES.
The popular manner for the upper tendon
to enjoy the concert is to hire barouche
and converse with less fortunate friends on
the sidewalks.
More seats, is the constant cry. The
committee would do well to attend to this
matter.
Numerous Jefferson hats could be dis.
tinguished ever and anon among the sea OF
heads.
A popular clerk in the Auditors office
made his presence felt by turning out i'll full
Tammany Club regalia, gathered while on
a visit to the Chicago convention.
The offices in the Capitol were unusually
popular with the ladies, every window con-
tanning a beyy of maidens tair.
The concerts are rapidly growing in pop
ularity. and will doubtless prove an institu
ton in the city.

club to indulge in, and the Brigade will
do well to ascertain and denounce the

AN INDIGNANT VOTER
Whom the Boston Globe Charged with
Selling his Vote.

Editor Rennebee Journal:
NV attention has been called to an article
in the Boston Daily Globe of the 18th inst. l
believe the whole article to be wilful, ma
licious lie and the person who wrote it knew
it to be lie, when he wrote it. Persons
names appear who did not vote; persons
names who were not in the city election day !;
persons names were never voters and never
claimed to be, and persons names who even
voted the democratic ticket. The suthor of
the article is liar, and if he were known
this city would not be large enough for him
to hide in. MY name appears with other
citizens as having supposed" to have sold
nv vote, the superstition being based, pre-
sumo, from the fact that | voted my first re-
publican ticket on Monday the Sth inst. In
common with large majority of our citizens,
democrats and republicans alike. hailed
with delight the nomination of James g.
Blaine for the Presidency, and the evening
after the nomination, my residence was IL
Illuminated in honor TO our distinguished
statesman and citizen. The democratic press
before election, said "a vote for Robie is
vote for Blaine" endorsed that sentiment by
voting for Gov. Robbie and nearly the whole
republican ticket. feel proud of it, and l
wish to announce when November comes, l
shall vote for the electors who will cast the
electoral vote of Maine for the Hon. James
n blaine. The author of the libel upon our
citizen and his cohorts in this city, will be
kent in the minority for the next eight wears
during President Blaine's administration,
sure-see?
