The Typographical Union Rail.

The entertainment at City Hall tonight
will reflect great credit on the committee in
charge. Mr. Collins has prepared some new
music. and the concert, from 1880 TO $50
O'Clock, will be .one of the most enjoyable
ever listened to in this city. The dance m u
sic has also been carefully selected, and for
the quadrille preceding 'intermission" the
orchestra will play an original composition
by Mr.. Collins, dedicated TO the Portland
Typographical Union. 1t is the impression
among members of the craft in this city that
we have some very swift compositors-as
fast and correct, in fact, as they make them.
In the contest tonight, several of these will
take part, and one Of the best men ON the
Boston Herald force will also participate.
The president of the Union. Mr.. NJ. A.
Welch, will have charge of the floor, assisted
by efficient aids. A reception committee,
composed of honorary members of the I'm
ion. willsaook after the invited guests. A
ladies' cloak room and facilities for checking
clothing will be provided.
The programme of the evenings enter
tainment will contain some interesting par
ticulars concerning the origin of the art of
printing, together with the records of some
OF the fast compositors Of the past and pres
emit. We would advise those intending to 90
to secure their tickets as soon as possible,
and thus avoid delay at the door. The doors
will be opened at $50. and the concert will
commence at 1880. This will be the concert
programme:
March-The Tbuuderbolt. Richard Wagner
Overture-Alessandro Stradella .......... Flotow

Helped up the Stairs.

Mrs l.. G. Shearer, living near Gorham. has
had an experience that she is not liable to forget
and it plainly shows the risk one runs in neglect
ing small things. About one year and half ago
Mrs. Shearer was taken suddenly with chill
while riding home from the village This left her
with avery bad cold. Shs paid little attention to
it, however, believing it would wear off. Flom
this neglect she found herself so bad that her
family became alarmed and called physician. He
said the cold had settled In the throat and lungs
and she would have to have great care. This was
given her but she grew worse and ran down very
fast. This continued until she lost all appetite,
and her stomach was weak and sore, bowels ter
ribly constipated, and worse than all female
troubles bothered her so badly she could not
stand alone. She had nightsweats so badly that
in the morning most Of the bed would be damp
and wet. Everything that could be thought of
of was done for her, but it seemed to do no good
friend of the family who had been cured OF
rheumatism by Drs. Smith and McMullen the
magnetic physicians at the United States Hotel
advised them to at once take her to them They
took her to the United States Hotel in carriage,
and it required the help of three persons to get
her up the stairs. She has been under the care of
Drs Smith and McMullen just one week, and now
returns home well woman in every way. The
night sweats ceased after the first treatment. AT.
ter fonr days all of the cough was gone. She has
gained eight pounds in weight, and she can ca,
anything without distress to the stomach. 1t was
great surprise to her family and friends to see
her come walking into the house, when only a
week before she had to be carried out.
Drs Smith and McMullen are permanently To-
Gated at the U. s. Hotel. They treat every form
of chronic disease, and be consulted free from
o a. m. to p. m.

A Narrow Escapa.

The schooner Ellen Lincoln landed 10000
pounds Of cod and haddock yesterday. The
schooner was out in the great storm and had
narrow escape from being wrecked. She
was in the vicinity of Rockland in the heav-
lest of the storm and before the crew were
aware of it they were almost in the breakers.
The anchors were lowered just in time and
the safety of the vessels depended upon
their holding. All night the waves swept
over the schooner and when morning came
she put on sail and got ready t. move out of
her hazardous position. just as she was
doing this her cables broke, and had not the
crew been prepared for such catastrophe
the vessel and all on board would have been
lost. The captain calls it hair breadth
escape.

Knocked over by the Rain.

This fall Clark, the clothier. made such a
phenomenal increase in his sales without any
special effort that he decided to make big
pull to break the record and run his sales up
to an even 100000. To do this he purchased
for spot cash $4,000 worth of clothing and
furnishing goods, the sale of which, added to
his regular run of business, would bring
about the coveted result.
But Providence doesn't always dispose as
man proposes, and the prolonged season of
rainy weather has destroyed all calculation
and left Clark barely holding his own regu-
lar trade, while the $4,000 stock is compar-
atively untouched. The wet weather has
effectually spoiled anything like boom, and
but one course remains open, viz: to sell the
goods for what they will bring, and thus at
one stroke save the interest and stop the de-
probation on the goods which is inevitable
from carrying over from season to season.
The goods will be sold for what they will,
bring, and that means rapid closing out,
for ct prices offered no one can afford to
spend dollar elsewhere for clothing.

so much, that L decided to make q des-
perate effort to run my sales mp to
$780, 100000. To do this purchased
for spot cash $4,000 worth Of clothing
and furnishing goods, the sale Of which
added to my regular run OF business,
would bring about the coveted result.
But Providence doesn't always dis.
pose as man man proposes, and the pro-
longed season Of rainy weather has
destroyed all calculation and left me
barely holding my own regular trade,
while the $4,000 stock Is comparative
ly untouched. The wet weather has eff
fectually spoiled anything likea boom,
and but one course remains open, viz:
to sell the goods for what they will
bring, and stop the depreciatit n on
the goods which is inevitable from
carrying over from season TO season.
The goods will be sold for what they
will bring, and that means rapid
closing out, for at prices offered no one
can afford to:spend dollar elsewhere
for clothing.
