Regents in session. They have formed
themselves, woman-llke, into two fac
tons. One of their bones of conten-
ton is the admission of reporters into
the sessions of the board. The great
est point at issue, however, relates to
the management of affairs. A certain
lady, it is alleged, by her dtcrmina-
ton to run matters to suit herself, has
collided with others. Among the
things that have caused grief is the
contempt shown the custom Of respect
inc the wishes Of deceased members,
who were formerly privileged to name
their successors. There are now three
vacancies to be filled, and, while ap-
pointmcnts may be made, it is thought
that as long as the factions exist, there
will be trouble in filing them. The
leaders of the ari5tocratic and Demo

Singular suicide.

The body of white man was found in the
marsh near Drum Island, Tuesday morning,
In horribly mutilated condition, and the
Charleston News and Courier says that the
sailors on the schooner Henry Crosby seem
to have no doubt that the dead man was none
other than a sailor who had mysteriously dis
appeared from the Crosby last Friday night.
The sailors name was Fred Barkstrom. He
was native of Sweden.
The story is that just before the Crosby
left Bangor, Me-, the captain shipped as
sailor this man Barkstrom, who came down
to Bangor from Rockland by rail. Barkstrom
being of a very submissive disposition allow
ed the mate to bully and browbeat him. AS
none of the other sailors would put up with
anything of this kind, Barkstrom came in
for all of the cuffs, curses and abuse of the
mate during the yoyageHto Charleston. When
the vessel reached Charleston on Friday last
Barkstrom seemed utterly broken down in
spirits and remarked to one of the men "that
II he knew anybody in the city he would
leave the vessel and go ashore" The next
morning Barkstrom had disappeared from
the vessel and has never been seen or heard
OF since by any of the crew.

pea. Marshall Irish.

The town of Gorham has lost by death one
Of its most esteemed and valuable citizens.
Deacon Irish who has been in i'll health for
several months, died quite suddenly at his
home on Sunday morning at nine o'clock,
from hemorrhage of the stomach. He was
born in Gorham, Sept. 9, 1914, and was q
lineal descendant Of two of the earliest and
most distinguished families who settled in
that town. James Irish, the great-grand-
father, emigrated from England and located
at Falmouth (Portland) in ITO, but came to
Gorham in 1873, the second year of its settle
ment. One of the sons of the early immi-
grant, by name James Irish, Jr., married
Mary Gorham, daughter Of Capt John Phin-
ney, who had the honor of being the first
settler. She was the first white child born
in Gorham, and these were the grand parents
of Deacon Irish. General James Irish, the
father of Deacon Irish, always lived in Cor
ham. He held many responsible State and
town offices, and was widely known and re-
speeted dnring long period Of military and
civil service. Deacon Marshall Irish has
also always lived in the town of his birth,
and has frequently been honored by the
town, by an election as one of its officers,
although he never sought political prefer
ment He has been trustee of Gorham
Academy for many years, and always felt a
keen interest in its prosperity. He has been
a devoted friend to the church, and the First
Parish of Gorham, of which he was mem
Der for ffty-four years, always taking con-
spicuous part in the management. He was
true man, faithful and loyal to his religious,
political and social duties, and leaves behind
a character which has no stain. His name
will be cherished by many relatives and
friends. He buried devoted and lovely
wife in October 1872, but afterwards married
Miss Mary I. Mcclellan, who, with two child
rem, daughter and a son, survive him, and
were with him during his last sickness. The
son Edward is a lawyer of reputation, who
resides in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The funer-
al of the late Marshall Irish will take place
at his residence in Gorham, on Tuesday, a.
M, at half past nine o'clock.

BROCkTONS, q; BIDDEFORDS, u
The league game between the Biddefords and
Brocktons at Brockton Saturday afternoon was
very one-sided at the start, very other-sided for
the middle, and again on the side OF the home
team at the finish. The hits on one side were al
ways met by errors on the other, and that caused
the game to be so uneven. In the SIXTH Irwin
hurt his ankle and gave place to McKeever in the
seventh, and at the same time Sylvester, who had
been batted out of the box in the fifth, was con-
veniently sick and Bignell took his place, and his
batting won the game. Six of the thirteen hits
made by the visitors wereoff McGunnigie's pitch
ing, while until the seventh inning "Keub" How
ard was the only one who had secured a safe hit
off Beck's delivery. Sweeney's umpring was un-
fortunate for the Brocktons in number of in
stances. In the last of the NINTH with two to tie
and three to win, Cudworth hit into long centre
field, and Sattery misjudged it. ''Cuddy" went to
second on passed ball, and cantered home on
Toffiing,s single, who in turn scored the tieing
Jandron's wild throw to third, allowing Bignell to
score before there was any one out. The score:

WATERvILLE, June commencement
at Colby University was inaugurated this af-
ternoon by the baccalaureate sermon deliv-
cred by Psrsident g. d. B. Pepper, D. d., at
the Baptist church which was listened to by
large audience. 1t was earnest and i'm
'pressive. He took his text from Hebrews,
4:12.
This evening, Rev. O. P. Clifford of Boston
delivered sermon before the Y. NJ G. A.
and Boardman Missionary Societies. The
theme of his diccourse was: ''The regnant
life of the world is Christ; the regnant law
of the world is the law of sacifce; the altar
of self-sacrifice is the very throne of God
the law of sacrifice is the only true, eternal
and universal law of progress and power of
heaven and earth" The sermon was bril-
liant with imagry metaphor and poetical
language. Few friends of the university
have yet arrived.

Rowdoln College.

At meeting of the Faculty of Bowdoin
College on Saturday, June 27th, the follow
ing vote was unanimously passed.
Voted-That we hereby express TO Professor
Chapman our cordial appreciation of the manner
in which he has served the college as its chief exc
cutiye officer during the past tive years. During
the first of these years it was his duty and his
pleasure to relieve our beloved Dr. Packard from
the actual weight of burdens which could not have
been borne alone and SO well did he discharge his
trust that the closing year of that long and hon
ored life was one of rest and freedom from official
care. During the past year he has been the head
of the college in all but name, position involving
pecuiarIdifiiculties, yet one which his prudence,
tact, and never falling courtesy have enabled him
to fill with distinguished success. As his associ-
ates we extend to him our hearty thanks for the
wise and gentlemanly leadership with which he
has h0nored and helped us, and especially for the
thoughtful and conscientious attention to details
of administration which has made these two years
a season OF rare opportunity for us to pursue un-
interruptedly our work as teachers.
The incoming Freshman class promises to
number forty or more.
