meter at the Westbrook Mills, was engaged

were at work broke and Mr.. Towle and his
brother fell distance of 16 feet, striking in
mass of tar-like residuum. They were
rendered almost Immediately insensibIe by
the accumulated gas. The other man fell at
the same time, but ON the outside of the gas
ometer and was somewhat bruised. Mr.. Has
kell, the agent, and other men at work about
the corporation, hurried to the rescue of Mr..
T0wle and his brother, who after a number
OF attempts were taken out Of their perilous
position completely Supplied by the gas. Drs.
Horr and Burroughs were called and ap-
piled the proper remedies for their restora-
ton, and in the course of forty or forty-ive
minutes the men regained sensibility. They
received little injury from the fall.

Isolated from all the otheR departments Of
the store aKd the most distant from the en-
trance, our Art-needlework section is really
one Of the most interesting places In the
whole establishment. IL you come into the
store for any special thing you naturally go
to that department where the article you're
looking for is kept, and, unless your attention
is called to It, it probably never occurs to
you to spend few minutes in looking at the
exceedingly entertaining exhibition OF attrac--
tive merchandise that is always to be seen at
the lower end of the store.
Last season we selected some OF the choicest
examples of needlework, some Of the rarest
Of our imported models, and with a few
pieces Of pottery and bric-a-brac sent them
to Bar Harbor. There was enough to com
pletely fill four rooms Of a cottage without
depicting our stock here. Our exhibition at
Bar Harbor was visited by everybody and
the fiattering comments it received would
fill whole side of this newspaper. This
year we have decided to make the display In
Portland and make it larger and better than
before. We hope all strangers who are Wis
iting the city this summer will make it
point to come to our store and see what we
are Offering in new ideas for interior decora-
ton. Nearly everything shown in this de-
partment is Of our own origin, design and

WASHINGTON, Dec l7.-The attention Of
Mr. Mckinley, one Of the Republican leaders
OF the house, was drawn to the decision Of
the Democratic caucus with regard to the
admission Of certain territories to statehood.
He remarked that he was glad to learn that
the Democratic members were disposed to
proceed in this matter, as the Republican
members will cooperate with them cheer
fully in needing tie appeals Of the territories.
He denied that there would be any attempt
on the part Of the Republicans to postpone
the consideration of this subject until next
congress. There is nothing TO be gained by
either party by the postponement, and the
sooner the matter is disposed OF the better it
will be for all concerned.
Representative s. s. Cox, the chairman
Of the Democratic caucus, says the territor-
ial bill will be called up just as soon as the
committee on rules appoint day for that
purpose Should the committee hesitate
about selecting day, the rules may be sus-
pended and the bills considered without
waiting for the committee on rules. He says
he has been hard at work trying to Induce
some of his associates to consent to q divi-
sion of Dakota He finally succeeded, and
he is prepared to proceed to the considera"
ton of the bills without delay.

much interest as to tho sentiment in

of age, and, dressed i'll the uniform of
tho guards, he seemed to be the very
idoal soldier, and graccd with most
gentle and courteous manners. Tho
conversation, which was brief, as noi-

The absorption into Brahminism is
becoming. under the pax Britannica,
day by day, u moro important feature
in Indian social economy. As surrey
as the English bring fresh unculturcd
tribes under their civilizing influence,
SO surely do they add TO the number
of the Hindoos; as surely as the iron
hand of Anglo Indian law, by refusing
to recognize any difference between
man and man, causes the upward rise
in the social scale of those that labor
to good purpose, so surely is the cause
of Brahminic orthodoxy advanced and
its influence widened. / have watched
the first process myself in the case of
the recruits to our little army OF
Gurlzhas; the wild mountain boy, on
joining his regiment, is taught not
only his drill, but also the Hindustani'
language rs understood in military
circles, and with it his religion, j. c., a
smattcring of current Hindooism.
The second can be seen in progress
any day all over India by any one
who will take the trouble to observe
the career of a successful handicrafts-
man or small trader. At first an out
cast" dealing only in matters of re-
igion with his tribal soothsayer, as he
gathers money he sets up Brahman
priest and minds the orthodox gods,
and at last, when respectable and
wealthy, he develops into full blown
Hihiloo; and then, since in all Hindoo-
ism ceremonial orthodoxy is synony
nous with social responsibility, he
adopts Hindoo manners 70 the full
isolates his women, prohibits the re-
marriage of widows, marries off his
infant children in the proper quarters,
and practices the thousand and one
customs peculiar to his adopted re-
ligion. Capt. r, G. Temple in Journal
of the Society of Arts.
