>ITAe-deadly grade crossing has again
got in its work in Philadelphia, and
out OF coachload of ten persons TWO
were killed outright and five seriously
injured, by the coach being struck by
a locomotive al a grade crossing. This
crossing, like the one at Newport,
where three persons were killed about
ten days ago, is very dangerous one,
as approaching trains cannot be seen
until within short distance OF il, but
Notwithstanding that fact there is no
flagman stationed there after 10 o clock
at night, consequently those who at
tempt to cross after that hour do so at
their peril. The recent remarks Of
President Roberts in relation to grade
crossings shows that he is fully aware
of the dangers inseparable from them,
and therefore it would be expected
that the company would take some
action toward ab9lishing them Thi:
accident will no doubt cost the com
pany many thousands of dollars in tho
way of damages, and therefore il seemi
like false economy TO permit thes,
deadly man traps to exist.

The Republicans should be careful
not to fall into the trap which has been
set for them by the Democrats in the
Biennial Election bill. There is no
doubt but we have very iull assess
ment this year, much fuller than there
has been for years, but 1t is equally
certain that the duplicates will not be
given to the tax collectors in time for
those who were put on this year 10 pay
their taxes and vote at the June cleo
ton. Consequently as there is nc
election this fall there are some who
may delay paying the tax until 1t is too
late, when they will be returned as
errors and DISTINGUISHED until after The
election in 1890. Every Republican
should pay his tax just IS soon after
the duplicates arc passed into the col.
lectors' hands as it is possible for him
10 do so, but by all means pay it before
the end OF this year. We believe tina
our new collectors will take every
mans tax who offers it, and it it is moi
paid in time the voters will not have
any one to blame but themselves.

WRECKED ON HALF WAY ROCK.
The vessi a Total Loss But the Crew
Saved.

The schooner A. Hammond oil 276 tons
burden owned in Saco by r. F. C. Hartley
and others of Saco, was off the coast in the
heavy weather of last Tuesday morning
bound from New York to Gardiner with a
cargo of coal. In addition to the fierce south
west gale that was blowing, there was good
deal OF fog so that Capt. Fitzpatrick couldn't
tell where he was. Through the fog he saw
the light off Half Way Rock and mistook it
Tor Portland Head Light. All at once he
recognized where he was and ordered the
man at the wheel to hard down" the helm.
Inc order came too late and in q few mo-
ments, about three o'clock, the schooner
struch heavily.
Inc situation was very serious, the waves
breaking over the schooner. Before any at
tempt could be made to relieve the strain on
the masts both went by the board narrowly
missing several of the crew. The vessel was
pounding on the rocks, and was so near the
land that when one of the masts fell it can't
ed over on to the rock so that the captain
and crew, with the aid OF the keepers of the
light who had been attracted to the spot by
their cries. managed to creep ashore over the
mast. They were most Hospitality treated
and remained on the rock until yesterday
when they were taken off by fisherman and
brought to Portland where they were paid
off and the captain proceeded to Saco. Ryan
& Kelsey were the agents of the schooner.
She will be total loss as will be the case
with her cargo of about $50 tons of COAL The
crew consisted of three men before the mast.

Portland Fraternity.

Last evening the directors and teachers of
the Portland Fraternity received the friends
OF the society at their rooms on Free street,
from to 10 o'clock. Small tables, where
young ladies served tea and coffee, produced
very pretty and cosy effect; the decorations
of leaves and flowers were especially grace
full and effective. Among those present were
MIR. Edw. II. Davies, Col. Cobb, DIR. Hill,
Rev. Samuel Longfellow, Mr. Edward
Thomas, Mr.. Geo. Thomas land many ladies
some seventy-fye persons in all. At nine
o'clock the guests adjourned Ito the upper
hall, where they listened to some charmin e
musical selections. Mrs. Fellows sang "He
Was Prince" with much expression and
spirit. Miss Rice gave beautiful rendering
OF "Two Children" the ladies playing each
the others accompaniment, and also giving a
duet, two Tuscan Folks songs. which were
very quaint and attractive. Miss Cobb played
piano solo, n0cturne, and Miss
Leach Flower Song upon the violin, both
most acceptably. Miss Evelyth accompanied
Miss Leach upon the piano. The ladies all
volunteered in aid of the Fraternity and Mr..
Wheelwright, as usual, very kindly gave his
services in tuning the piano. The Frater-
nifty, both senior and primary, is rich in
friends who upon all occasions show their
interest in the good work by their presence
and assistance.

The JUDGE KNEW HIM.
How a Drunken Man Secured
Term in Jail.

Judge Bonney was in WaterVliie ias'
week. He boarded the train there Ior ror'-
land and took a seat in the smoking car
Pretty soon q drunken man, with dos III
his arms, entered the car, and approaching
the Judge. dealt him heavy blow with the
fiat of his hand, intended evidently Tor
friendly slap. The judge, with some asper-
ity. INQUIRED the meaning of this action,
when the drunkard explained huskily that
he mistook him for an acquaintance and
asked to be excused. The judge told him, If
he had made mistake, that it would be all
right. The fellow was not satisfied, how
ever but persisted in his apologies, going so
far as to attempt to sit down IN the judges
lap, in his anxiety to be fully pardoned.
Finally the Judge changed his seat, but the
troublesome fellow followed him and con-
tnued his apologies. The judge, out of pa
thence, got rid of him by saying, There, if
you will go and sit down in that seat and
stay there until we get to Portland, it Will
be all right, otherwise it won't" The
drunken sot, partially sobered by this vig0r-
Gus speech, did as he was told.
A day or two later, when the judge came
into the court room, he found this same fell
low in the dock and readily recognized him.
The offender was before the Municipal
Court some time ago for assault and battery.
His case had been appealed, gone to the Law
Court, been decided against him, and he was
now up for sentence. His counsel politely
asked the judge to continue the case on the
good behavior of the prisoner. The man, it
was explained, had been pitcher of ball
team down in the Provinces during the sum-
mer and had done fairly we'll. The judge
asked the counsel what he meant by fairly
we'll" Counsel replied that the man had
not been before the court since his offence.
Upon this the judge briefly related to the
lawyer his experience with the man on the
train and ended by sentencing him to ninety
days In Jail. The lawyer afterwards ex-
planned privately that his client had recog-
nized the judge as the man he struck on the
train and had said he didn't think it would
be Of any use to ask for continuance of
sentence.

FRANKlIN COUNTY COURT.
BEFORE JUDGE HASKELL.

PENNINGTON, october 2.
K. o. Greeneaf, administrator Of the estate Of
Benjamin Lowell VS.. George Grounder. This
was an action brought by the plaintiff as admins.
formerly owned by Lowell, valued at about $4,000.
The defendant holds title to the real estate under
a deed dated November 10. 1887, Zone OF the con-
ditions of which was that the defendant should
durng their heir et%e Which deed Was n mot Ge
tested and claimed title TO the personal property
under an alleged bill Of sale of even date with
the deed. The plaintiff attacked the bill OF sale
upon the ground that the name of Lowell affixed
thereto Is not the genuine signature of Benjamin
Lowell.
The defense introduced the deed Of the real es
tate and the alleged bill OF sale, and also the tes
timony OF witnesses tending to show an arrange
ment between Lowell and the defendant Just
show that the name upon the bill of sale was a
genuine signature.
In rebuttal the plaintiff introduced the testi-
msny of witnesses familiar with Lowell's hand
writing. and the testimony OF Judge Chandler, OF
Pennington, and William X. Neal, Esq, of Port
land, as experts, to show that the signature upon
the alleged bill of sale was spurious. Documents
were introduced bearing what were admitted to
be the genuine signatures OF Lowell. The expert
testimony was to the effect that the name upon
the alleged bill of sale was not written by the
same hand that wrote the signatures which were
admitted to be genuine.
After being out about two hours, the jury re-
turned verdict for the plaintiff, assessing dam
set the verdict aside and exceptions and the case
goes forward.
