ARTHUR CHAMBERS OPINION.
He Talks About jackson and Godfrey, the
PuRiliata.

A local sporting man returned from Phila-
delphia yesterday and repeated the opinion of
Arthur Chambers. the once famous lightweight
pugilist, regarding Godfrey and jackson, the
two colored pugilists. Chambers said:
jackson is good man; one of the best. His
movements are excellent and he has an ex-
traordinary reach. He is not a very heavy
hitter, but he is quick and has pair of good
legs. Godfrey is also well built and quick, but
he cannot give much punishment. He is a
good pugilist, however"

RESCUED HIS DAUGHTER
From the Clutches OF Desperate Biga
mist.

BISGHAMProN. n. Y, April l6.
Laura GRAMS, a seventeen year old girl,
came to this city a short time ago and Sc
cured employment in the factory. She was
bright and attractive and soon had several
suitors, among them John B. Smith, who
was several years her senior. He induced
her to accompany him to Tunkhannock, Pa,
where the marriage ceremony was per
formed. The couple then went to Ninevah.
where they remained several days with the
girls parents.
GRAMS became suspicious of his son-in- law
and instigated an investigation which result
ed in the discovery that Smith had been
twice married before and that both of his
former wives are living, and that the alleged
wedding vas only a mock marriage. He
ordered the bigamist to leave the house.
Smith waited for an opportunity and when
he found the girl alone pointed revolver at
her head and compelled her to leave her
home with him. They walked the enre dis
tance of twenty-four miles to this city
Several times during the journey Smith dis
played bottle which she believed contained
poison, and wore that he would force her to
swallow it if she tried to escape.
When this city was reached the girl was
completely exhausted. She was taken to a
house on the outskirts and kept concealed
for three days. where she was found by a
detective employed by her father. When
the officer was about to remove her, Smith
presented a revolver aud declared that he
would shoot if any attempt was made to sep
arate them. The detective dared him to
shoot and departed with the girl, who was
restored to her father. Smith cannot be
found.

MAINE DISPATCHES.
MAINE POSTAL CLERKS.
An Exaggerated Report About Dis
missals

PORTLAND, April Is.
newspaper item which had its origin in
Bangor has had the effect of causing more or
less anxiety among the postal clerks of the
New England division, and particularly in
Maine. 1t was to the effect that 81 railway
clerks had already been dismissed from the
service in this division and among them sew
ersl on the run between Bangor and Boston.
Chief Clerk Hale and Inspector Water
house who was seen at the post office at noon
today, both said that this was an exaggera-
ton so far as they knew.
The only removals affecting the service in
Maine thus far made are those of
Frank f. Brown Of Waterville, whose place
has been filed by ) Leyeresque of Lewiston
and John L, Lowell of Bath, whose success
or is w. A. Knapp of North Leeds. Sever
al clerks in this State who received proba-
tlonary appointments for six months, whose
time has expired have not been resppointed
but those do not constitute dismissals and in
10 way affect the routine of the service in
this division.
