seranaded Friday evening at their home on
Lamb street, by the Westbrook Band, of
which Mr. Durell is member. A large
number of their many friends were present
and the festivities were highly enjoyed by
all.
Recent developments concerning the at
tempted safe robbery at Westbrook Depot,
point to the supposed fact of an organized
effort in different towns in this section in the
line of house breaking and safe blowing.
Gorham, Cumberland Mills, Auburn and
Bethel have been visited successfully by per-
sons OF this class. No traces of the men are
found. At Cumberland Mills the parties
left behind dynamite cartridges and also the
money contained in the safe which. on ac-
count Of an unsuccessful explosion, they did
not obtain. Only few dollars were takens
the contents of the money draw.
yolney u. Gushing, of Bangor. opened fire
upon the people of Cumberland Mills and
Saccarappa Friday evening at Browns Hall.

ton party for Governor of this State. smoke
very el0quently upon the subject of national
prohibition which is as he claimed ssthe
great political issue of 1885," He spoke very
calmly and deliberately of the enormons
wickedness of both the Democratic and Re-
publican parties and advocated union with
the Prohibition party as the only salvation
for the people. After Mr.. Cushing closed
his remarks and while the collection was he
ing taken, Mr.. s. w. Woodbury., pioneer
and representative prohibitionist of Maine
made few remarks appropriate to the oc,
casion, urging fidelity to the party an en-
thusiasm to the cause.
