BlDDEFoRD, Feb. 1.-The Salvation ArmyEto-
day inaugurated warfare against Satan in this
city, by the dedication of their new barracks
near the head Of Summer street. At 1890 a.
m. detachment of Saco warriors under the
leadership of Capt. hampton, the "electric"
lad, or as he is more familiarly known the
"Hallalujah Jumping jack, formed on Main
street in front of Marble block, where short
knee drill was practiced in presence of some
five hundred persons, including the usual
sprinkling of the hoodlum element who gen.
orally congregate upon such occasions; thence
the army marched to the barracks singing hal
lalujah hymns, while the tambourines were
vigorously manipulated. An immense crowd
thronged the sidewalks along the route and
hundreds followed in its wake. Perfect order
however prevailed and no disturbance was at
temDted, the notable presence of City Marshal
Harmon in the vicinity doubtless exercising
very soothing effect among the crowd. Upon
arriving at the barracks Holiness meeting
was held before an audience of about tour
hundred, one convert resulting from the STR
vice.
At2.S0 p. M, the army paraded the streets
in the binding storm, and at o'clock fled in
to camp singing hallalujah hymn and taking
their positions upon the platform, engaged in q
silent prayer. There wers fifteen of their lads
and lassies nearly all OF whom were attired in
the regulation uniform of the army.
Capt. Hampton, in his usual happy manner
pointed to the convert of the morning and con-
graduated all upon the auspicious opening Of
the campaign here. He was ably assisted by
Lieut.. Singing Alice, and Halleluiah Tay lor.
Exhortations followed from many of the
"saved" warriors.
In the evening hallalujah free-snd-sasy
was held. Several converts were the result of
the days labor. Meeting are to be held every
evening at the barracks hereafter, and much
good will doubtless result from the iabors of
this little band of earnest workers.

BIDDEFoRD Jan. 31.-Andrew j. Small, editor
and proprietor of the Biddeford Daily and Weekly
Times died at his residence in Saco this morning,
aged AT years. A few years ago he suffered a
shock of paralysis, and has been an invalid ever
since, bnt the immediate cause of his death was a
severe cold contracted last week.
The deceased was born Nov. 10, 1897, and enter
ed the printing business compositor in the office
of the Maine Democrat, in Saco, in 1867. He re-
manned with the proprietor of that paper, Alpheus
A. Hanscom, and his successors, VIM. A. Noyes &
Co., until Jan. l. 1868, when the paper was sold to
Hon. Charles A. Shaw of Boston, and the Office of
its publication removed to this city. He entered
the employ of Mr. Shaw as assistant, and served in
that capacity with the latters successor, Hon. EK.
Smart until the sale of the paper to Watson Bros.
May 20, 1869. Mr.. Small was afterwards employ
ed on the Union and journal, under John e. But
Ter s. Co. He bought the Daily Chronicle of F. W.
Roberts, July 18th, 1876. and Immediately chang
ed the name to Daily Evening Times, and subse-
quently purchased the Weekly Advance of Rev.
Oliver Butler, which became the Weekly Times.
Mr.. Smalrs health was impaired from the time of
his first attack of paralysis still he continued to
manage the business of his papers, and was inde-
fatigable worker. In sunshine and in rain he rode
between his residence and office, and there was
scarcely day in the year that did not find him at
his desk experimenting the publication of his pa
per. He was member of the Orthodox church in
saco, and belonged to the Knights of Honor and
the Endowment Rank of the Knights of Pythias of
Saeo.
The funeral services will occur Wednesday after
noon, at O'Clock, from the Congregational church
in Saco, and will be attended by Mystic Tie Lodge,

member. 1t is presumed that the entire press OF
this vicinity will attend in body ont of respect to
his memory

Nearly a Collision.

LONDON, August PA dispatch sent
to-day from Meshed, Persia, near the
Afghan frontier, to the Times, states
that collision between the Russian
and Afghan post nearly occurred on the
18th instant, at Karatepe, Is miles from
Chamanibaid. Some Russian troops so
the dispatch states, approached Kara
tepe, and the Afghan troops there stood
to their arms. A Russian officer, when
he saw this, ordered his troopers to I'M
sling their carbines and he was shot and
severely wounded by the accidental
discharge of one of . these wea-
pOns. Before the exact nature of
this accident was ascertained, there
was considerable excitement and con-
fusion which, however, subsidized, as
soon as the truth was made known.
The Afghans then detained the Rus
slams until they received orders from
Herat to let them go. During the de-
tenuon the Afghans treated the
wounded Russian officer with great
kindness, bandaging his wound, and
sent him back to the Russian lines. A
hurried investigation of the occurrence
was made on both sides. The Russian
commander exonerated the AfghanS
and promised that the troopers should
not again advance beyond Chenanlbad.
Four English officers continue to super
wise the work OF repairing and str ength-
ening the forts of Herat.

GERMANY AND SPAIN.
Seizure of the Caroline Islands
by Germany.
EXCITED FEELING IN MADRID.
Public Meetings and Resolutions
Against the Action of G emany-
Miscellaneous Notes.
The Caroline Islands.

MADRID, August 21.-The reply OF
Germany to SPANS protestin reference
| to the formers annexation of Caroline
Islands, has been received by govern
ment here. 1t is couched in friendly
/ terms and in it the German government
offers to submit the claims of Spain to
the Carolines to a fair examination. 1t
is reported here that two Spanish war
ships have occupied zap, the chief
/ island of the Caroline group. The feel-
ing in Madrid against Germany because
of her assumption of the possession OF
these islands is so bitter as to cause
alarm. At a meeting of the Geographl-
cal Society last night. various members
made speeches violently deneuncing the
action of Germany. Their remarks
were received with great applause.
Fears are entertained that a hostile
demonstration will be made against the
German embassy, and IN consequence
body of policeman has been detailed to
guard that building.
The irritation against Germany In
increases hourly. The official press is
more indignant over the seizure OF
Caroline Islands than the opposition
press. Newspapers generally advocate
repriSalS. Count Won SOlmo some
waldo, German ambassador to Spain.
now abstains from attending theatres
and avoids public promenades and
places of amusement. 1t is semi
officially stated that the government in
tends to rupture the commercial and
diplomatic relations existing between
Germany and Spain unless Germany
abandons her claim to the Carelines.
Senior Carvajal, in an address before the
Spanish African society to-day, de-
nounced Germany for trespassing upon
Spanish rights. The society has de-
clded to reassembie and pass resolu
tons, demanding that Spain take ener-
getic action against 0ermany's occupa-
ton of Caroline Islands. Prince Bis
marck's reply to the Spanish protest is
considered evasive and unsatisfactory.
although he processes to be willing to
submit the claims to the examination of
an arbitrator.
A patriotic demonstration against
Germany, because of her action in con.
nection with the Caroline Islands will,
it is expected, be made here next sun
daV.

monrrea,,s Winter carnivals.

Sp ecial Correspondence of the Globe.
MONTREAL. Nov. 8, 1SS5.-St. Paul's de-
termination to hold a winter carnival exctes
much interest here. for MontrealerS are in
clined to believe that they have practical
monopoly of the thing Other cities, they
know, have snow and cold weather and ice
in plenty; other cities may build ice palaces
and toboggan slides galore but Montreal
has an immense permanent plant in her
unrlValed athletic associations, snow shoe
and tOboggan clubs, and tandem and curling
and hockey clubs, and in the habitual devo-
ton OF her young people of both sexes to
open-air enjoyments in winter If ST. Paul
makes grand success without these pre-
liminary advantages the inventiveness dis
played will give Montrealers valuable
points for their next midwinter splurge, to
be held the season after they shall have
banished the smallpox.
The best advertisement of our winter car
nivals has been the ice palaces The mention
of such fabrics tempts people to see them.
By scattering cuts and descriptions over the
continent the Montreal carnival managers
attracted wealthy visitors from the most re-
mote districts. Many even came from Eng
land. Obviously ST. Paul. in the ice palace
matter. has large advantage from clear,
steady. cold weather. With that the build
ing will be very easy. Last winter it was
doubtful for some weeks whether we should
succeed in piling up all the frozen blocks
before the setting in of carnival week. so
much did thaW and rain delay the work and
