band. He thanked the Lincoln Club most
heartily for this expression of their regard,
and congratulated them on the grand victory
that had been achieved that day, grand be-
cause of the unceasing work that had been
put into the election by the Democrats. He
referred to the frequent reminders, on the
part Of the Argus. of his feeblepess and de-
crepitude and thought thai, for sick old gen.

made by them in behalf of coed government

ARcANA LODGE I. o. c. T.
A Public Meeting Held In Reform
Club Hall Last Evening.

Last night. in Reform Club Hall, a goodly
number of people were assembled to listen
to public address delivered by Chief Tenn
plar Warner Of Blackstone Lodge of Boston.
Although young man. Mr. Warner has evil
GENTLY studied the order of Good Templars,
ana has the interests of the order at heart.
Ohief Templar William Kelley presided, and
alter short history of the order, relating to
the manner OF Its formation in New York In
1901, MT. Warner spoke of some OF the work
being done at the present time, saying gin
the lodge / formerly sat in the members
went out into the broad ways and brought In
men who had been overlooked or neglected
by the church, and as a result there are
many new members of the order who do not
belong to any church, But we do not forget
that over all there is supreme unseen pow
or which we obey, as we also listen to the
teachings of the Nazarine. Nature itself
teaches us temperance; the first drink that
man ever placed to his lips was the pure,
sparkling drops of water furnished by Him
on high Intoxicating drinks are furnished
by man, From our own country some Of the
barbarous nations have been furnished with
intoxicating livuors.0 When the Bible was
carried out in one hand whiskey went in the
other. and often there has been too much of
load In the hand that carried the whiskey.

Purify
Your Blood

At the coming of spring the blood should be
purified, as impurities which have been accumu-
lating for months or even years, are liable to
manifest themselves and seriously effect the
health. Hoods Sarsaparilla is undoubtedly The
best blood purifier. 1t expels every faint of i'm
purity, drives out scroluIous humors and germs
OF disease and gives to the blood the quality and
tone essential to good health
A Severe Case of scrofuIa.
"My little daughters life was saved, as we
believe, by Hoods Sarsaparilla. Before she was
six months old scrOfua sores began to appear on
different parts Of her body, and in a short time
she had running sores. Two physicians were
called but they gave us no hope. One of them
advised the amputation of one of her fingers, to
which we refused assent Our attention was
called to Hoods Sarsaparila, and we began CIV
ing 1t 10 her. A marked improvement was noticed
after she had taken only one bottle, and by q
continued use of it her recovery was complete.
And she is now, being seven years old, strong and
healthy. The other members of my family have
been greatly benefited by Hoods Sarsaparilla,
and recommend it as an excellent blood puri-
fer" B. Q. JONES, Alma, Lincoln Co., Me.

The Democrats Experienced a
Weather Change.

Yesterday opened fair and mild. just the
kind OF weather to bring out the voters By
ten o'clock. when the polls opened, the merry
sunshine flooded the ward rooms and braced
up the vote distributors. In some of the
ward rooms there were large bodies OF voters
waiting for ten O'Clock so as to throw their
ballots early. At noon the great bulk of the
vote was In. The heavy snow squalls at 8
O'Clock probably prevented few from get
ting to tho polls, but as rule there was
lively hustling to get there. Carriages of
every description, from handsome clar-
ence to job wagon, were driving at break
neck speed through the streets to get out the
feeble and infirm. Probably every availa-
BILE team was secured. As a result a very
large vote was polled. It will be seen the
Deering vote was reduced considerably over
one-half. After the ballots were counted it
was seen that the vote figured mp over 6S7O.
At the Congressional election in September,
1890. 1t was 6049. Hon. George w.
True is the Mayor-elect of Portland and
will take his seat as soon as he notifies the
city OF his readiness for installation.
This was the vote for Mayor at the first

SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT.

The following decision was sent down
from the law court yesterday In a case
which was tried in the Superior Court. The
parties at the time Of the trial resided in the
city. The verdict was for the defendant and
the plaintiff filed exceptions:

was "a feet wide with its east end bounded
by same number Of feet of the back end OF
the way.
The defendants wife's lot fronting on
Pleasant street, extended along the entire
length Q0S feet of the passage way on the
side opposite the plaintiffs.
The plaintiff occupied his lot from 1864,
and the defendants wife with him occupied
hers from 1867.
The "a feet of the back end of the passage
way whereon the alleged trespass was COM
mitted, was In 1851 inclosed by a fence con-
tanning gate by the guardian of the Poor
heirs, from whom the plaintiff derived his
title, for little garden" for his son, and

In 1864 to 1872
In 1872 the plaintiff removed the fence
which has never been replaced. Since
which time the plaintiff has used the locus
for hauling out earth from his celler and
ashes, and for hauling in building materials
TO enlarge his l. and coal-also for a place
to hang out clothes as did others the portion
Of the way opposite their lots. Plaintiff has
also usually picked the fruit from the three
or four trees-the relics Of the former 'little

The guardian could not be considered as
holding adversely to his wards from 1850 to
1S5S-and If otherwise, the plaintiff is not
privy. From 1858 to 1872 the plaintiffs pos
session could not have ripened into title by
disseizln. Since 1872 his possession is not
shown to have been exclusive and ad-
verse. Harris, defendants wife's grantor,
forbade It and plaintiff practically yielded.
Besides the defendant has annually used the
locus Tor taking out accommodating refuse
from bis wife's lot which plaintiff has not
denied.
