A Mystery Partially Cleared Up-A Bear
Hunt.


The mystery attending Maurice Fitzgerald OF
Merrill Plantation, whose death was recently
reported in this paper, has been partially
cleared up. just before death he gave per-
mission to two Of his attendants TO remove the
mittsn and rubber casing which he had con-
stantly worn on his left hand, when it was
found that the fourth finger and a part Of the
side of the hand was gone. The other three
fingers had been cut off at the third joint, and
there was round hole through the palm Of
the hand. Probably but one man-the priest
who attended him in his last hours, knows
how the mutilation occurred. That something
weighed heavily on his mind was evident from
his sending with the utmost haste for his con-
fessor when he found he could not live. It Il
thought that Fitzgerald was not his true
namei that he had probably received the in
jury while engaged in the commission OF some
crime for which he was in continual fear OF de-
lection. Scars OF so singular character could
not escape notice and would furnish certain
means of Identification. Fitzgerald was of .
gloomy disposition and extremely reticent, and
it is said that he slept each night with the
hand in his bosom in order that it could not be
touched without awaking him.
On Wednesday as Thomas Weymouth Of
Bangor and another man were exploring some
timber lands on Hastings brook they came
suddenly upon an old bear and two young
ones. The old bear took to the bushes at once
and the cubs made for the nearest tree. Mr..
Weymouth's companion arrived with club
followed the cubs up the tree, and soon sue
ceeded in knocking them to the ground,
where they were killed by Mr.. Weymouth
with an axe. Strange to say the old bear did
not show fight.

THE OLD WORLD.
Beginning of Trouble Between
France and China.
THE TOWN OF KRLUNG CAPTURED
BY THE FRENCH FLEET.

LONDON, Aug. "a despatch from Shanghai
70 tne Reuters Telegram Company states that
tne french squadron under Admiral Lespes,
consisting or hva vessels, had bombarded and
Formosa.
Immediately following the above despatch,
caoiegram from Paris says the news of the
capture and occupation of Kelung BY the
French is officially confirmed.
PARIS, Aug. Sit is stated here semi-ofi-
clally that the negotiations between NJ Pate
notre, the French Minister to China, and Iii
HING Chang, only resulted in an offer on the
part OF China Of an illusory indemnity. The
time given to China to accept the French nj
timatum expired August 4th. France was
oollged TO support her demands by Selling the
guaranty. Admiral Lespes therefore on Aug,
9th occupied the port Of Kelung ard the coal
mines In the vicinity. M. Patenotre informed
Ii Hung Chang that the duration of the
French occupation depends entirely upon the
action OF the Chinese government, which can
shorten it by paying an indemnity of 80,OOO,-
OUU francs Ia ten yearly payments.
LONDON, Aug. "a despatch to the Times
says that France refuses to submit the settle
ment of the Franco-Chinese difficulty to
mediation. Late advices from Pekin state
that Tsung LII Yamen has regained confidence,
and will disregard the chronic menace of the
french heet. The French prestige can only
be recovered by serious operations.
A despatch from Foo Chow says that Presi-
dent Arthur is mediating between France and
China, and has telegraphed instructions to
John Russell Young, United States Minister to
China.
Admiral Courbet will attack Foo Chow
Tuesday next unless the French indem nity
proposals are accepted.

NOTES.
Frelgh is splendid fielder, but he needs batting
practice as does OConnor.
One of the most pleasing features of the game
Saturday was the umpiring of Mr.. Batchelder
Callahan played good first base Saturday
OConnor moved great deal livelier Saturday
than usual, and we hope he will continue to i'm
prove.
Barnes stole run Saturday handsomely, although
he got a tumble.
Itwssa pretty catch of the high fly to left field
by Hutchinson. =
CULVER played fine second base. He belongs
Fish is splendid ball player, How the little

1t was pleasing to see how qnickly the Portlands
came In from the field at the end of each inning
and also to see that the batsmen were ready for
their turn at the bat. 1t makes game more inter-
esting to play up sharp.

Portlands it was determined to bring them here
again, and see what the new Portlands could do
against Them They played here Saturday but the
Tremonts are much stronger than when here last,
they bringing with them nine of picked players.
Strong players from other clubs were added to the
Tremonts, notably Aver. substitute Of the Beacon
Club, who caught for the Portlands in the Beacon
game, and Walden, one of the Shoe and Leather
Club of Lynn. The Portlands were short one man
-Chase-who received a bad bruise in running
bases Thursday, which necessitated putting Gala
han on first base, and Burns in the field The
game was the strongest one the Portlands have
played here, both in batting and fielding while the
Iremonts, although fielding fairly could not bat
OConnor at all. The fine pitching of O'Connor
an the splendid catching of Abbott and Aver we're
noticeable. The pitcher of the Tremonts a Young
man only 16 years old, Westcott, it is claimed nv
the Tremonts, is very effective in Massachusetts
but he was bstted out of the box in the third
inning. The Portlands have improved wonderfully
in their batting but they still need more practice
10 that line. About 700 people Witnessed the
game. Only six innings were played Occupying
