 BOSTON, Dec. 1.-The Boston police this afternoon made a raid on the gambling places in different localities. After visiting number of dens the police stopped at No 35 Hanover street. The occupants refused to listen to all commands to open the barred iron door, but the sledge hammer made short work of the plaster around the door and the officers, To king through the opening, saw the activity of those within. When they had obtained an entrance only a table could be found. The officers looked for the contra band articles. Special Officer Vinal glanced out of a window and saw the end of rope in an unusual location. He walked down stairs, made his way to the rear of the build ing and found bag hanging fifteen feet from the groand. He pulled, but the bag refused to come. He pulled again and it gave way so suddenly that he fell to the ground, distance of ten feet. The bag contained one thousand chips, cards and a deal box.

Bay State Farmers Who will Employ
 None of Them Hereafter.

BOSTON, Dec. IA private meeting of farmers of Winchester, Woburn, Lexington and Arlington was held last night to devise means to protect farmers against forthcom- ing demands of the Knights of Labor. There has been considerable dissatisfaction among the farm hands for some time and the feeling would have culminated in a strike the past autumn if it had not been that the season was unusually dry, the hands knowing that the farmers on that account could afford to let them go. Last evening the farmers bound themselves together and decided that they would employ no man who belonged to the Knights of Labor. The present is when the farmers hire their help for the coming year. One farmer said if the crop growers did not take action at the present time on this ques- tion that there would certainly be strike of the men next summer and that too when the crops were in such condition that they could not afford to spare hand.

moen Says sItIs AlfALie.

WORCESTER, Mass, Dec. 1.-The an- nouncement from Providence this evening that ssDoc' Wilson had lifted the veil from the great Moen mystery caused 8 tre- mendous sensation. The bulletin boards were surrounded far in.o the night by 8 crowd who drank in the brief sketch in open-mouthed wonder. The millionaire manufacturer was at prayer meeting when the announcement reached the city and the reporters gathered at the entrance of the
 Union church to waylay him as he came forth. One of them showed him copy of Providence paper containing the story and proceeded to interview him on the subject, but he would say nothing aside from the statement that 'tDoc's" story was a lie. With difficulty he escaped the newspaper men rnd went to his elegant residence. There tn -oughout the evening the door bell 1 was kept instantly ringing. A reporter of the Inited Press called upon him there at | o'clocA. His son Philip came to the door with him, for he never goes to the door alone. He was as cool and collected as l though he had been called to the door on 1 matter of business of the simplest kind. When asked about the statement made by l s'Doc' Wilson to day that he was his father,
 | Mr. Moen said: tsIt is lie, downright he."
 He then said: 'My counsel has advised me | not to talk with any of the newspaper men on this subject, so you will excuse me if l | decline to be interviewed further. But you 1 can see he is nearing the end of his rope. Just see how desperate the man is, getting up such story as that" MT. Moen then declined to state anything further.

 A Strong Denial From Rice. WORCESTER, Mass, Dec. 1.-Hon. W. W. Rice stated tonight to a reporter that Will
 sons story was a base fabrication and that it
 would be received by all the elder people of
 Worcester as preposterous and impossible.
 Mr. Moen, said MT. Rice, was married in
 184S, thirty eight years ago, and Wilson by
 his own statements many times is several years younger than that. The lady whom Levi Wilson now claims was his mother, MT. Moen's first wife, daughter of the late Deacon
 Washburne, from birth in delicate health and for years before marriage as well as during all the years of her married life re- quired the attention of a nurse, who con- stantly accompanied her and who is now living. Moreover there are scores of early family friends as we'll as those who all those years were neighbors, were almost daily wis., itors who are yet living and can prove the utter untruthfulness of this mans declaration against lady who will be recalled by all who knew her as rare example of the del icacy and refinement of true woman. Wilson has in his desperation taken posi- tion for further attacks upon MT. Moen that can be of no advantage to his schemes be- cause all he alleges can be so easily be shown to be without even the colon of truth. Every day of the years he refers to can be covered by numbers of acquaintances when recollec- tion and opportunities for knowing all the daily life of this family were conclu sive and whose statements cannot be doubted. The story besides being outrageous is weak and absurd Moen is an unspotted gentleman in his private life as he has always l been in business Thers is nothing in the l mystery dishonorable to him unless it be his l unaccountable weakness in paying so much 1 to maintain secrecy in so trivial matter as the so ocalled mystery. His principal reason l for keeping it so long has been on account 1 of unwillingness that people should know he has paid so large sum for so slight cause. l

Life to Death

;s bnt a moment if rheumatism or neuralyia strikes the heart. These diseases are the most painful and the most dangerous of any to which human kind is liable. They fly from one part to another without mo- ment's warning, and liniments and ether out ward applications are in themselves danger ous because they are liable to drive the dis ease to some vital organ and cause instant death. Rheumatism and neuralgia are dis eases of the blood, and can only be reached by 8 remedy which will drive from the blood the dangerous acids. Such a remedy is AthIoohoros It has been thoroughly tested and is a safe, sure cure.
 NEW HAVEN Ct., Sept. IA, 1885.
 Day before yesterday, and day or two prior thereto, suffered great pain in my right arm, which I felt sure was rheumatism. Being determined to do someting to relieve the pain, if possible, l sent out and got bottle of Athlophoros and took three doses during the day. Yesterday morning the pain was nearly gone, and one more dose colnpleted the cure, that to-day my arm is as good as new. I feel so grateful to you that 1 determined my business this morning should be to write to you this note of thanks
 EDWARD A. ANKETELL.
 ANsoN1A, Conn.,, Oct. IA, 1885.
 I believe in fact, know there is nothing like Athlophoros. It cured me or very se- were case of muscular rheumatism. My cure is permanent. I have recommended 1t, on the strength of my own cure to a number of persons suffering from rheumatism and neuralgia, and still the good work of driving away that dangerous disease-rhenmatism, goes bravely on on all sides. I hear the highest praise for Athlophoros.

THE ARREST OF JOHN DILLON
Likely to Prove a Boomerang For
 V.AI

Lord Churchill.
 LONDON, Dec. .1.-Mr. Mundella in speech at Sheffield this evening highly eulogized the honesty and patriotism of John Dillon and said that he himself had repeatedly heard
 gentlemen high in the Tory government as
 well as leading Conservatives not connected
 with the government denounce Lord Clanri-
 cardi in stronger terms than Mr Dillon had
 employed. The summoning of MT. Dillon has proved boomerang. The action ot the government has not created that enthusiasm or received that support that was expected and it has called up a greater degree of in- dignation and resentment among the opposi- tion than was counted upon. In these cir cumstanees it is thought probable that no further prosecution will be attempted and that MT. Dillon's case will be allowed to die a natural death.
 A League Meeting Broken Up.
 CORK, Dec. IA large National league meeting was commenced here to day which was presided over by Commoner O'Connor. Shortly after the meeting was called the police arrived and the crowd fled, leaving the speakers on the platform. The latter were commanded to leave and it is alleged the district inspector of police, a ruffianly fel- low, attacked Mr. O'Connor, striking him in the face with his fist and smashing his eye glasses. Commoners Tanner and O'Hea, who were among those present and announced to speak, were roughly handled by the police.

i Negro Strung Up for Attempting tt
 Assault a White Girl.

COLUMBUS, s. o., Dec. 1.-Caessr Robin son, colored, was lynched at Florence, s. O., last night, for attempting to outrageously assault respectable white girl of that town. Robinson met the girl Monday morning on the railroad track two miles from Florence and was in the act of accomplishing his pur- pose when he was frightened away by the approach of party of boys. He was ar- rested and was identified by the girl, after which he was lodged in jail. Last night about o'clock large party of armed white men surrounded the prison. At the same time several hundred negroes gathered iH the same vicinity for the purpose of protecting the prisoner. The lynching party divided their forces, one party keeping the negro mob at bay while the other attacked the rear end of the guard house, effected an entrance, dragged Robinson out, hanged him to a tree and riddIed his body with bullets. The ne- groes fired several shots at the lynchers, but a volley from the latter dispersed the negroes in short order.
