John White ChIckering.

Rev. DR.. j. w. Chickering, formerly of
Portland, who was visiting his friend Thorn
as White, at his home No. 1876 Hicks street,
Brooklyn, died there after a short illness
Sunday.
Rev. DIR. Chickering was born in 1906. and
was consequen tly eighty-two years of age at
the time of his death. He graduated at Mid
dlebury College in 1926, and after a theclogi-
cal education, he was called to what was
known as the hillside" parish at Bolton,
Ma SIS. Here he remained five years. Very
early in January. 1885, he received loud
call from the High street church. He came
on visit of few weeks, and was taken
captive. March 9TH he formally accepted
the call By letter, and April I'd, 1885, he was
installed. Rev. DR.. Nehemiah Adams of
Boston preached the sermon, and Rev. Sam
uel johnson of Saco the installing prayer.
Young, tall, of deep, strong voice, preach
ing ever with serious motive, and laboring
indefatigably from house to house, his pres
ence and power began new epoch with the
church-of which he was the second pastor
and the neighboring community. DR..
Chickering remained pastor of the church
for thirty years, and was released from his
charge March Goth. 1865. Crowned with q
most solid token of the esteem and gratitude
of his Pensioners in the form of $4,000 in
United States bonds. Rev. DR.. Fem. the
present pastor, who succeeded him, says !:
"a happy and favored ministry was this of
thirty years duration. In his letter of ac-
ceptance the young candidate had said !:
"God grant that eternity may illustrate un-
ceasingly the fact that he sent me to Port
land" What answer God may vouchsafe to
prayer may appear from this, that when his
pastorate was formally closed, there had
been received to the rolls more than $50
souls, over 400 by profession, as its precious
seals of fidelity"
During DR.. Chickering's labors at the
High street church the galleries were added,
the quarterly fast was instituted, and the
Maternal Association formed. 1t was owing
| greatly to his efforts that State street church
was established in 1852, and West Chapel
now the West Congregation church--in 1862.
| He assisted at the dedication of st. Law
renee street church in 1853 In 1860 the par.

pastor and his wife with appropriate exer

PRESENCE OF MIND.
A Narrow Escape from Burning to
Death.

Sunday night Mrs. Newcomb, wife OF OH
Ger Newcomb, who resides on Oxford street.
proceeded to fix her stove fire, and knelt be-
fore the stove for the purpose of arranging
the drafts after putting on fresh coal. She
was partially undressed. and, having fixed
the drafts, turned to put some tcothache
drops into tooth which was paining her.
Her hair, which was very long and thick,
was hanging down her back. Feeling very
hot about the feet she turned and discovered
that hersclothes were ON fire, and, as she
turned, the flames were communicated to her
hair
Mrs. Newcomb's first impulse was to rush
out of the house. But she is woman of
strong commonsen and at once rejected
the impulse as suicidal. She sprang into the
bed, pulled the clothes around her and rolled
over and over. Then she found the flames
were not out, for her hair was still burning.
and this she managed to pull out and extin-
guish. Finally the last spark was put out
and she was safe. There is no doubt that a
wooden skirt she had on, which burned slow
ly, saved her life. As it was, while her body
escaped slight barns, one of her hands was
completely blackened by the flames, and the
other also severely injured, although not as
seriously. 1t was remarkably narrow es-
cape from death.

Scotland.

Rev. Mr.. Crosser gave a very interesting
lecture on Scotland at Williams Hall last
evening.
After brief description of his visit in
ireland, the speaker dwelt more at length on
his visit in Scotland. especially in Edinburgh.
The Scotch capital is one of the most histor-
ic and picturesque cities in Europe. 1t is in
teresting historically because it is the city
of John Knox, Chalmers and Guthrie, be-
cause Of the old castle perched upon rock
SO inaccessible that even Cromwell with his
Iron-sides was unable to take it, and of
Hollywood Palace, made famous by the beau
tiful but Inflated Mary. TIE houses are
built of stone, giving a cold but durable ap-
pearance to the city. Many of the finer
houses are surrounded by great high stone
walls as if each family had to protect it
SELF
A stranger is reminded of the Lords day
morning, not by what he hears, but by what
he does not hear At about 1890 a. m. the
streets are full of people going to church.
The pavements are too narrow so they walk
in the middle of the street. Father, mother
and any way from three to ten children go
together to the house Of God Nearly as
many men as women are found in their
churches.
The lecturer then told his audience about
such places as the famous Blarney Castle,
which is as beautiful as ruin covered with
ivy; but it tells Of time when the gallant
knight was little else than robber and
murderer. In Scotland such places as Loeb
Lomond-the queen of the Scoth lakes
Loeb Katrine-out of whose waters rise e.
lens Isle, where Fitz James and the Lady
of the Lake" had their famous interview
were described in most attractive garb.
These places are doubly beautiful because
Sir Walter Scott so peopled them from his
mind. N'f--,s~4s-.e, crs.s,.-,.,
1t was great disappointment to both Mr..
Crosser and his audience that the gas failed
to arrive so that he could illustrate his lee
ture by the stereopticon.

She Remains the Same.

Mrs. Rebecca jackson, living at go Congress
street, Portland, was terrible sufferer from fac
ial neuralgia for seven years. 1t would at times
extend down the right side to the leg This dis
ease is known as Tic Douloureux and is the hard
est of all known kinds of neuralgia to cure. Dur
ing these seven years of torture what Mrs. Jack
son suffered is beyond the pen to describe. Every
thing in the world was done for her that could be
thought of, the best physicians employed and ey-
cry remedy used for such diseases tried but TO no
avail Mrs. jackson got no relief. Some months
ago she read an advertisement in one OF the dally
papers of the many being cured by Doctors
Smith and McMullen, the magnetic physicians at
the U. s. Hotel AS many of these cures were of
quite a miraculous nature, she thought she
would as a very last resort, try again. Mrs. jack
sons recovery was wonderful to say the least
She commenced to feel better from the first, and
in a very short time was entirely well and has
remained the same every since. Mrs. jackson
is an old lady of II. Still she now does all OF her
own work about the house and is in every way
well and strong. This cure was made some
months ago, and is given again, as many were
skeptical as to its lasting Doctors Smith and
McMullen are permanently located at the United
States Hotel. They treat successfully every form
OF chronic disease by their great magnetic heal
ing gift. Consultation free from a. m. to p. m.
For any case of nervousness, Sleep
lessness, weak stomach. Indigestion, dyspepsia,
try Carter's Little Nerve Pills. Relief is sure.
