THE CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION.
Meetings of the subcommittee on
PROFESSIONS and Decorations.

The sub committee on professions held
meeting at the Mayors office yesterday af-
ternoon. 1t was voted to invite the various
military and civic organizations of the city,
the G. A. R., the Grammar High and Cath
Ollie schools, the fire department. the various
trades ETC., to take part in the procession.
Major H. S. Melcher was appointed chief
marshal. The following gentlemen were
added as citizens committee, others to be
named hereafter: Lewis B. Smith, George
NJ Moore H. B. Brown, A. L. Merry, Isaac
Atkinson, w. p. Goss, Frederick G. Forsyth,
G. Ell. Cloyes.
In the evening meeting of the sub-com-
mittee having charge of the decoration of the
City Hall, public buildings, arches, etc, was
held IN the ante-room of the aldermen's
chamber. Alderman Wilson,. Councilman
Brown, Galley and Murphy and Mr.. John T.
Hull of the committee were present, and alse
Messrs. Geo. NJ. Moore, M. L. Mulhall Geo.
E. Brown and F. G. Forsyth The gentlemen
present discussed plans for the decorations
for about an hour.
Mr. Geo. E. Brown recommended the dec
Grafton and Illumination of the front of the
city building.
Mr. Galley renewed the suggestion that
flags might be draped in the form of arches
from wires extending across the streets from
telegraph poles on each side. He also
thought double arch in front of the city
building would look well, the arches being
erected diagonally across the street and in
tersecting at the centre.
Mr. Forsyth thought pine tree on top of
these arches would be appropriate
MIR. Moore thought decorations with flags
would be effective.
Mr. Forsyth recommended procuring pic
lures of Lafayette and the Prince of Wales,
both of whom have visited Portland, and
displaying them somewhere on the route of
the procession.
Mr. Galley said that the carriage used by
Lafayette on his visit here might also be pro-
cured.
Mr. Hull mentioned that the city civil en-
gineer could have large maps prepared of
the city of 1856 and 1886, to be used in the in
terror decoration if it was deemed advisable.
The matter was left with the chairman.
Mr. Murphy recommended that the obser-
vatory be decorated, and Mr. Mulhall sug-
gested the erection of an arch in imitation of
masonry.
After some further discussion the meeting
adjourned until next Thursday evening, at
which time Mr.. G. E. Brown will present
estimates as to the cost of the various dec
0rations proposed.

OIL ON TROUBLED WATERS.
How the Brig Hyperion Rode Out
the Storm.

Capt. j. F. Foss, of the brig Hyperion Of
this port, tells an interesting story of the
way in which his vessel rode out severe
storm while the waves were kept from
breaking over her by bags of oil hung over
the sides. Capt B. J. Willard, the owner
of the Hyperion, had told Captain Foss of
his belief in the efficacy of~oil in breaking
the force of the waves, and when in Havana
last February Captain Foss had two bags
made of canvas, each with capacity Of
about one and one-half gallons. The bags
were made in such shape that the mouth
could be tightly closed and the bags sus-
pended in the water from the vessels side.
On the 25th of February while on the pas
sage from Havana to New York, the Hype-
rion encountered storm which her COM
mander thinks is the severest he has known
for thirty years. The little brig was hove
to and the two bags, with about a gallon of
fish oil in each, were lowered into the water.
One was secured to the cathead on the
weather side, and the other on the opposite
side of the brig, fastened to the main rig
ging. Before lowering the bags into the sea,
Captain Foss made three small holes in
each. The effect was all that could be de-
sired. The waves, instead of breaking on
the vessel, became huge rollers, on which
the brig rose and fell without shipping any
water until at half-past three in the after
noon of the following day. Then the bag
suspended from the main rigging broke and
soon after heavy sea struck the vessel and
washed away the man at the wheel. Cap
tain Foss as quickly as possible got out
another bag and rode the gale out in safety.
But for the oil the captain of the Hyperion
says that his vessel would have been lost in
the terrible storm A barque which left
Havana at about the same time as the Hy-
perion has not been heard of since. The oil
in each bag was sufficient to last about TWEEN
ty-four hours. Captain Foss says that in
future his vessel will always carry stock of
