Fires in the Woods.

The fire in Deering comes from the woods
in the rear of Evergreen Cemetery. 1t had a
good hold last night, was burning quite
fiercely, accompanied by a dense smoke.
Parties came in town at p. m. to get help to
fight the flames. If a strong wind should
arise serious results might follow.

BowERY BEACH.
Wednesday was the hottest day yet ON the
sea coast, the mercury touching $40 in the
shade. Sunday was another parching hot
day, the heated northwest wind sweeping
across the land like a simeon. Crowds of
people drove to the Two Lights and other
cool places along the Cape shores.
Last Thursday seven pleasure barges and
some twenty other vehicles of lesser capaci-
ty conveyed the Woodford's Congregational
Sabbath school society and other parties,
about two hundred persons in all on an ex-
cursion and picnic to the Lights. We regret
that members of this party were charged by
a neighboring farmer with entering his field
and wilfully breaking his farming tools.
From II o'clock to p. m, Sunday, mag
nificent feet of the largest size schooner
yachts passed the Cape from the westward
and bore up for Portland. One carried away
her foretopmast off the Cape
A young man named Dow, an employee of
the Maine Mutual Life Insurance Company
was taken seriously i'll on the Two Lights
premises Sunday. All efforts for his relief
by his friends proving unsuccessful, he
was borne in "a hammock to the keepers
house where under patient and skillful nurs-
ing he so far recovered as to be able to ride
home that night.

Dear Sir.-In accordance with your request,

find that it contains no Sugar of Lead, or any in

The above is a copy of the original letter to Mr..
Bachelor, and we take pleasure in publishing it
and endorsing Bachelors hair Dye as having en-
joyed world wide fame since 1881, fifty-6ve
years, and it looks to that it will last in favor
for as many years longer, as we are told that its
sales today are equal to over 100000 bottles

Serious Fall.

Mr.. j. B. Libby, a painter, and working
on Mr.. Robert Whitcomb's new house on the
corner Of Mellen and Cumberland streets met
with a severe and painful accident yesterday
morning. He was making his way down the
roof when workman who was holding the
safety rope attached to his waist dropped
it, and after a frantic effort to save himself,
Mr.. Libby slipped off and fell from the
height of two and half stories to the
ground. He was picked up unconscious and
taken to his home at No. 112 Newbury street
where DR. F. III. Gerrish attended him. The
doctor is unable to state the exact extent of
his injuries, but thinks that several ribs are
broken and is inclined to the belief that in
ternal injuries have been sustained.

You are about to make yourself as happy
as human being'can possibly be, yet you
wish to inaugurate that period by reducing

l know you too we'll, sir--or, rather think
too we'll OF you-not to be sure that If you
carry out this latter intention your con-
science must prick yOu in after-lite."

told you not to brandy words with me, so
let me hear no more. j am now going to
Brighton. Do not omit to forward
all letters to my address there. You
will please be particular in this.
l must say, Mr.. Penn, that 1 am
not little astonished that, remembering
as you must what have done for you, and
how with your furnished name you might
long ere this have been begging you bread
but for me, you should presume to offer me
advice on my own affairs. But will say
no more"
in hopes that some straw might still be left
to clutch at. Then he said: MIR. Gray
sark, you observed just now that the fact
of your marriage depends upon the consent
of the young lady's father"
Those were my words. Mr.. Penn" re-
piled the merchant.
IF he should refuse his consent?" said
Penn.
Refuse, Mr. Penn! Refused" exclaimed
Greysark. ''Such thing is simply impos-
sible, simply too ridiculous to be enter
tanned for moment. The head of the
house of Jonathan Greysark & Co.. I
should imagine, was a fit match for any
one"
$50 you may think SIR" said Penn,
quietly, but fathers sometimes hold
strange opinions"
Mr.. Penn, you are insolent sirl" al
most roared the merchant, rising in his
chair, and glaring at his clerk with furious
eyes.
Penn fumbled in his pockets and contin-
ued, still quietly: well, sir, in this case
the fathers opinion does happen to differ
from yours, and he refuses his sanction to
his daughters marriage.
Jonathan GreySarl started from his chair,
his face perfectly livid, his eyes and mouth
wide opened. Penn drew forth a letter
from his pocket, unfolded it, and, as if ut
terly unconscious of the storm he had raised,
resumed:
You have addressed the letter to Mr..
Robert Fleming, the father of Phyllis, the
young lady to whom you have been paying
your addresses. l. for family reasons,
with which you are quite familiar, prefer
to be known in my circle of acquaintance
as Robert Fleming. Phyllis is my daughter,
and re"
No, no! don't go on" shouted Greysark
in voice of supplication.
In the course of a few weeks Phyllis Penn
became Mrs. Jonathan Greysark. and the
style of the firm in Rood lane was altered
to GreySark Penn & Co

PAR A Disc.

o, Paradise must fairer be
Than all on earth eXcelling;
o, would that /, from trouble free,
Were there securely dwelling!
In Paradise a river clear
OF heavenly love is streaming,
Where every bitter earthly tear
\ lucid pearl is cleaning.
In Paradise soft breezes blow
To cool the hearts hot fever;
The pangs and pains that here We know
They watt away forever.
In Paradise, on greenest glade,
The tree of Peace is planted;
The sleeper underneath its shade
BY blisSful dreams is haunted.
A cherub sentry at the gate
His wakeful watch is keeping,
Lest worldly din should penetrate
To rouse me, sweetly sleeping.
My heart, that shattered bark, will there
Be safe in harbor riding;
Its ever-restless infant, Care,
Be lulled to lest abiding.
For every thorn that gave wound
a rose will there be borne me;
And joy, that here no roses found.
With rosy wreaths adorn me.
There will all pleasures breathe and bloom
That here untimely withered,
And blossoms rare of rich perfume
From arid stems be gathered.
All that was here my hearts pursuit
Will grow from hour to hour,
From tender frond as golden fruit,
As summers opening flower
The bllghted hopes that here were mine,
Like wreathe from many a far land,
In fragrant bloom will round me twine,
My never-fading garland.
Youth, that on rapid beating wing
So swiftly DER me darted,
And Love, that on a morn in spring
One nectar draught impaired,
Wiugless and fiightlesS there will be,
And to their heart will hold me,
And, like a child on mothers knee,
In soft embraces fold me.
And that Divinity, whose light
Shone dim and fitful cleaning,
Whose lovely visage angel bright
/ only saw in dreaming.
Fair Poesy unveiled will show
Her eyes celestial fires,
While joyously my song shall flow
To sound of angel Tyres.
