Cheers For Blaine,

Me, June five cars
were in waiting in Portland to connect
with the Blaine train. The leading car
was gaily decorated with bunting and
portraits and was engaged by Collector
Dow for q select party of citizens and
public men. Chambers band accom-
panied the party. The train rolled in at
2.40 p. IN. amid cheers and welcomes and
strains of music, The delegates report an
enthusiastic reception at Lynn and Ports
mouth, the only places where the train
stopped. At Portsmouth addresses were
made by Congressman Boutelle and Gov
ernor Davis, of California. The train
made a short stop at Portland. Mr., Wing
of Auburn, made a brief speech. The
band struck up again andthe artillery closed
by a Numbered salute.
AUGUSTA, June 9.-The Blaine train
left Portland at 3 o'clock, and no stops
were made until Brunswick was reached
at A o'clock, Here there We're four cars
from Lewiston and Auburn decorated with
the Blaine insignia, and three moro
from Rockland aud other cities, all filed
with delegates to join the Blaine train.
A great crowd, with a band of music,
greeted the California and Maine delegates
with cheers, The Bowdoin students were
conspicuous in enthusiasm. Senator
Mcclure of California, made a ringing
speech, after which Congressman Boutelle
made a speech which was curtailed by the
starting of the train at 4:20 p. m. for
Augusta. At Gardiner the artillery wei
coined the train, but a stop only of two
minutes was made, All along the route
the flying train was greeted with cheers
and waving OF handkerchiefs, particularly
along the Kennebec river. Crowds were
gathered at many places, and at $40 a
long train of thirteen cars rolled into
Augusta, where bands were playing,
whistles blowing, bells ringing, artillery
firing, and crowds were assembled to meet
it. The procession, with music and ban
ners, was forwarded 10 escort the visitors.
Ex-Governor Conner addressed the Cali
fornia delegation in words Of welcome,
which were responded to by Senator Nc
Clure, of California, who closed, amid
great cheering, by saying: You need
not worry about us. We will take care of
our side of the continent" Ex-Governor
Conner said: you have done wisely and
well, We will sweep this country
like a vast prairie on fire. Judge
Knight, of California, paid a tribute to
the venerable ex-Vice-P President. The
enthusiasm of the crowd at the depot was
preceded by a band striking up, aud the
procession proceeded through the prin.
cipal streets to the residence OF Blaine, in
front Of which quite a crowd was assem-
bled watching an artist sketching
for an illustrated paper. The procession
arrived at 6;45, and the Californians
were received with aapping of hands as
they passed into the house. They were
most cordially received by Mr.. Blaine as
Senator Mcclure presented each by name,
and conversation ensued which was brok,
en- up by Senator Hamlip coming in and
being presented, remarking they were
nice boys. Mr.. Blaine went to the door,
where he was received with loud cheera.

WASHINGTON, June 9.--The commit
teo on appropriations reported a general
deficiency bill and it was referred to com-
mittee of the whole, A bill repeating the
presumption and timber culture act and
amending the homestead laws were called
up and an amendment adopted providing
that all persons who have heretofore, in
good faith, made settlements on public
lands in certain states and territories. An
amendment was adopted providing that
all persons who have heretofore in good
faith, made settlements on public lands
under the presumption laws shall be per
mitted TO make final proof and entry
upon tracts of lands not exceeding 100
acres. Mr.. Holman offered an amend
ment providing that public lands of the
United States adapted to agriculture
shall be sold except mineral lands, and
town sites and all of the public lands
adapted to agriculture shall be reserved
for dona,fde settlers and only upon the
provisions of the homestead law, subject,
however, to bounty land warrants and
college scrip issued by authority of Con
gress and grants which congress has made
for the purpose of education. In the
debate which followed Mr.. Golf. of West
Virginia, gave a slightly political turn by
declaration that homesteadlaw had been
almost solidly opposed by the Democratic
party and also vetoed by a Democratic
president,
Mr.. Cobb retorted by a statement that
since the Republican party had come into
power it had in the most fragrant manner
wasted and given away public lands. Mr..
Holman contended that the homestead
law was essentially a Democratic measure.
A long discussion followed, confined prin-
cipally to declarations of the necessity of
~resewing public lands for actual settlers

GENERAL WEBB's DEATH.
A Pioneer New York Editor Passes
Away.

General James Watson Webb died in
New York on Saturday afternoon.
General Webb was born in Clavrack,
N. Y, February 8. 1902. He was a son
Of General Samuel B. Webb, who served
during the Revolutionary War. Webb
entered the United States army as second
lieutenant in August 1919, was promoted
to a first lieutenancy in 1928 and the fol-
lowing year was made assistant commits
sary of subsistence. In 1899 he resigned
his position and took charge of the New
York Courier, which had been established
in May of that year. In 1929 he pur-
chased the Enqaarer and united the two
under the name of the Morning Courier
and Ne,o York Enquirer, and at that
time became sole editor and in 1880 sole
proprietor of the journal. 1t was at an
early period identified with the interests
of the Wing party, and maintained its
fidelity to that party during its existence.
In 1850 President Taylor appointed him
charge d'affaires to Vienna, but the SEN
ate did not confirm the nomination. In
1881 Governor Hunt, of New York, APP
pointed him an aide-de-camp with the
rank of Brigadier- General In 1861
President Lincoln appointed him Minister
to Brazil. 81
For several years past General Webb
had been living quietly and had not iden-
tilted himself with public matters. His
death removes the last of the celebrated
old New York editors.

a Terrible Calamity.

The " City of Columbus" with l26
passengers and crew, was wrecked
Friday morning, and 101 persons were
lost, including DR.. Bartlett and wife OF
Lyndon, VT. TIE facts are reported
as follows:
The City of Columbus left Boston
Thursday afternoon, bound for Savan-
nah. At 3.45 Friday morning, with
the wind blowing a gale, the steamer
struck OH the Devils Bridge Reef,
off Gay Head, Martha's Vineyard.
The passengers, almost without ex-
ception, and many of the crew were
below. Most of them rushed at once
to the deck with little on but their
night clothes, but so sudden was the
catastrophe and so short was the time
between the striking of the steamer
and its sinking that some of the women
and children did not appear at all. A
few hours later the revenue cutter
Dexter going its round of perilous
duty approached the unfortunate
steamer and took off the remaining
| survivors. The hardships to which
the sufferers had been exposed will be
realized when it is stated that atte1
their rescue four of them died on board
of the cutter, and that not a woman
or child was saved.

How Watch Cases are Made.

1t is fact not generally known that the
James Boss Gold Watch Cases really con-
tain more pure gold than many "solid"
gold cases The demand for these watch
cases has led to the manufacture of very
poor grade of solid gold watch cases
low in quality, and deficient in quantity.
These cases are made from 4s to 10 karats,
and or karat case is often sold for II
or IA karats. 1t is NOT economy to buy
watch case SO poor in quality that it will
soon lose its color, or one so soft that it will
lose its shape and fail to shut tight, thus
letting in dust and damaging the works, or
one so thin that slight blow will break
the crystal, and perhaps the movement.
1t is economy to buy James Boss Gold
Watch Case, in which NONE of these things
ever occur. This watchcase is not an erpert-
ment-it has been made nearly thirty gears.

William Morton, has lately died at
Sitka, Alaska. He was a remarkable
instance of the fascination which
Arctic exploration possesses for men
who have once yielded to it. He first
went north in 1849 upon the brig
Advance as member of the Grinneil-
Franklin search expedition, and he so
signalized himself that Congress gave
him a vote of thanks. DIR. Kane was
the surgeon of that party, and when
he was fitting out his own expedi ion
the first man he sought as volunteer
was Morton. 1t was during the ex-
petition that Morton discovered the
open water to the north which gave
such impetus to the discussion as to
the existence of an open polar sea.
Kane, broken in health upon his re-
turn, sought relief in travel; Morton
accompanied him, and Kane died
in his arms at Havana in 1856. Nor
ton, who had entered the navy in
1913, served through the rebellion, as
he had also through the Mexican war
his ship sank under MIN at the attack
upon the forts below New Orleans,
and when the Monongahela was car
ried inland by a tidal wave in 1867
Morton was one of the 40 left to
float her, and one of 81 of the party
; who survived the outbreak of yellow
. fever. He went moth again with
. Halls expedition, as second officer Of
the Polaris, and Hall gave him, fol-
) prudential reasons, absolute contro
, of the stores. 1t will be remembered
: that it was while these were being re.
, moved to the ice, with view to aban,
5 doning the ship, that the ice sudden.
e ly broke up, and part of the crew
Il. drifted off. Morton was one OF the
few left upon the vessel, and theil
r fate was long unknown. They tool
+, to an open boat, and were finally
5 picked up by Scotch whaler, anC
landed at Dundee, Scotland. Nor
, tons seven years of hardship in the
: ice, dissatisfied him with any other life
Y and he soon sought service IN the al
! most Arctic climate of Alaska. His
term would have expired in June, anC
he was planning to spend the rest o
{ his days at his old home in jersey
; City, where his wife and three chill
, dren have lived for more than q
| years.
