The Fryebure ASSEMBLY.

The preparations for the coming Sunday
School assembly and Chautauqua Union at
the Fryeburg grounds are being rapidly
pushed to a conclusion The picnic auditori
UNI seating from 1900 to 1900 is now complet-
ed. The Boston & Lowell railroad has adj
vertised special rates along its lines as well
as the Portland & Ogdens5urg, Boston &
Maine, Maine Central and the International
boat line. Persons from as far west as
Michigan have written, expressing a pur-
pose to be present. DR.. Vincent thinks no
assembly ever opened its first year with a
more brilliant programme. Rev. A. E. Dun
ming, Mrs. Livermore, Edward Everett Hale,
DR.. Hill, DR.. Cyrus Hamlin, Mrs. Crofts and
Mr.. Blaine are sufficient to make any pro-
gramme attractive. Reports from the mana

Nearly Drowned,

Mr.. Rice of the Boston Herald, guest at
the Sea Shore House, while bathing We'd
nesday started to swim out to the yacht an
chored in the bay. He was joined by a
stranger and together they reached the
yacht, but the water was very cold and the
stranger was chilled and exhausted so that
after getting into the yacht he lay in a help
less condition. Mr.. Rice again plunged into
the ocean and swan ashore, and got boat,
starting after his companion in the swim.
he reached the beach completely exhausted.
He was cared for by the guests at the Sea

hours, that he was himselfagain. The 9TH

Killed by a Locomotive.

AS No. Lewiston train, which leaves this
city at noon for Lewiston, was just this side
of Auburn station yesterday afternoon, a
man was seen walking by the side of the
track The train was rounding a curve
when the man was sighted and he was but a
short distance from it on the left hand side.
All at once the man stepped in front of the
engine and was instantly killed. The engi-
neer was ringing the bell at the time, and
had grasped the cord to blow the whistle,
and was about toset the air brakes, but the
whole affair occurred so suddenly and UNI
expectedly that all efforts were useless. Con-
ductor Stone left brakeman in charge of
the body and procured assistance in Lewis
ton and kindly rendered the use of wagon
to bring the remains to that city.
The unfortunate mans name was John
Bream of Lewiston. The coroner's jury, af-
ter hearing the evidence, found no blame at
tached to the employees of the road.

THE FISHERIES.
An Apparently Unjust Discrimina-
ton.

On of our leading fish dealers said yester-
day he thought it very unjust that the Cana
dlans were permitted to send their fish in
bond to Portland and thence to Boston and
New York where it was reshipped to their
colonies in the Windward Islands, also in
Bermuda and Jamaica, while our vessels
were not permitted to land fish in colonial
ports and haveit sent forward in bond to the
United States
Another fish dealer said that he thought
Secretary Bayard was mistaken when he
said that our fish exports and imports were
almost equal, the former exceeding the lat
ter only to the amount of about 100000 He
thought the Secretary mixed up his statistics
so that he was mistaken when he said that
now intercourse between the two countries
would, by the dropping off in the sale of our
fish only make up the difference between the
two. Our fish sent to Canada is charged
duty, while theirs is admitted Free

rect by Department Commander Lane (who
had the charge of the whole business) on

International steamship Company.

The management of the International
Steamship company have been gradually fit
ting up and improving on the general man.
agement of their magnificent steamers until
now it is doubtful if better managed steam
ship line exists in America The discipline
among the crew and the effect of the boat
drill, which the crew are regularly put
through. was fully demonstrated on the re-
cent case of suicide by drowning off the
State of Maine. From the time the steamer
was stopped, a boat launched and manned,
the body recovered and put on the steamer,
and the State of Maine got under way, just
% minutes elapsed. This speaks volumes
for the discipline Of the steamer, Not only
has the crew been thoroughly drilled in hand
ling the boats, but they have also been
drilled as firemen. The steamers are sup
piled with so per cent more hose than they
are legally required to carry, and in a re-
markedly short space of time after an alarm
is given the whole steamer is surrounded in
such way that makes it next to impossible
for fire to get any headway.-St. John Sun.
