A WELL KNOWN colored man by
the name of Lit Porter accidentally
shot himself Saturday night. He
went to his home near Covington
under the influence of liquor, end
concluded to return to town. Pear.
ing that some one might try to rob
him, he placed his gun between his
coat and vest muzzle downward.
The hammar caught in the collar OF
his coat and dropped back on the
she'll, causing the gun to fire. The
load entered the calf of his right leg
and he bled freely until medical aid
could be secured. After the flow of
blood was stopped it was thought
that he would recover, but he died
early the next morning.

DELIGHTFUL NEWS.

Here is some delightful news for
young men Ct a slim purse and eco
nomical turn OF mind who are con>
templating mdtrimony
There seems to be growing ten
dency to abbreviate, and in many
cases to omit the wedding journey,
which has tor long time been con-
sidered necessary preliminary to a
newly married couples settling down
to their domestic happiness. Young
people who intend to keep house
always ind considerable to do in
getting the domestic machinery into
running order, and in many cases
they prefer to remain quietly in
their new home, and perhaps take
the pleasure trip later. The bride
who has for weeks been busy with
dressmakirg, shopping, calling and
the countless little details of prep
.aration that most girls find necessary
to attend to before the wedding, is
usually more or less tired out, and
often prefers the rest and quiet
home lie to the fatigue Of journey
As for the husband, there are rea-
sono tor supposing that he doesn't
usually care much for the wedding
trip anyway. All the preliminary
arrangements which the girl finds so
pleasant and interesting are little
bit irksome to him. There is too
much fuss and trouble about it to
suit the masculine miad. And SC
when it comes to going away after
the wedding he considers it an IN
terruption rather than an aid to his
happiness, and really prefers to re
main at home.

STATE TOPICS OF INTEREST.

At the Republican caucus in Biddeford,
Saturday night, IA delegates to the State
convention were chosen and instructed
to vote for Hon. Henry B. Cleaves, of
Portland, for governor.
The rain was gladly welcomed by Fair
field people, as it may enable the drivers
of logs to reach the mills, which have
been shut down for want of something to
do.
Ollie, son of James Fish, of Rockland,
was found dead on the LIMERICK rail-
road tracks, Saturday. His body was
nearly cut in too. tits supposed he fell
from train while stealing ride.
A boy named Sprague, aged sixteen,
employed by E. [. Salisbury, of North
East Harbor, while hauling furniture
through Town Hill, Saturday, fell from
the load between the horse and whifle
tree. The hind wheel passed over the
boys head fracturing the skull. Death
resulted instantly.
The body of a man found on the Grand

HoDoKINs AND THE TREES.
A Performance Which Brought Bangor
Man to Trial.

BANGOR, May 22.-Ivory A. Hodgkins
of Bangor was before Judge Brett in the
municipal court this morning on war
rent sworn out by Charles S. Pearl, a
member of the park commissioners, for
malicious mischief. 1t seems that on
Wednesday of last week the people resid-
ing on Center street awoke and found
that the large elm trees in front of the
house occupied by Mr.. N. B. Williams,
had all been girdled. Mr.. Hodgkins
owns this house and for some time he
has said that his property has been dam
aged by the trees. On Tuesday night he
hired two boys and had them girdle the
trees, after which they poured on
kerosene which is always considered
sure death to a tree.
The police when arresting Mr.. Hodg-
kins had quite hard time in getting him
to the station. He is an old man and is
probably slightly deranged. CITY Solic-
itor Mitchell appeared for the state and
Judge James Ell. Burgess was counsel for
Hodgkins. The latter could not be in
duced to go into the bourt room so the
hearing was held in Chief Parker,s Of
fee. There were number of witnesses
and after Judge Brett had heard the case
he imposed fine of $40 and costs. the
whole amounting to $18.44.

Mr.. CLARKsoN TALKS.
He Believes the Minneapolis Convention
Will Be of the Best Sort.

NEW YORK, May 22.-James S. Clark
son is in this city. From his appearance
one would never suppose that he had
been through such severe attack of
sickness as he has experienced. His
color is almost ruddy, and the pallor of
countenance, formerly so pronounced,
has entirely gone. 1t is said that he
really felt greatly improved and was sure
that his illness had left him in fine
physical condition. 1t is reasonably GER
tain, therefore, that he cannot retire
from the chairmanship of the Republi-
can National Committee on the plea of
broken health.
Mr.. Clarkson tried to. avoid talking
politics. II am not prepared to discuss
the situation" he remarked. ''All L
care to say regarding Presidential candi-
dates 1 said in Chicago, and that has
been telegraphed all over the country.
There are no plots or conspiracies
against anybody OF in anybody's interest.

resentatives of great party to decide,
after careful consideration, who is the
best man to lead us to victory. am an
uninstructed delegate, and so are nearly
all the others. We are free, therefore,
from all restraint or coercion, and if in
the circumstances we cannot choose
wisely, then | am greatly mistaken.
have not declared myself for or against
any man who has been named for the
Presidency. I believe this is going to be
one of the best conventions of the party
ever held.''
1t is probable that Mr.. Clarkson will
go to Washington on Monday or Tues
day, returning here later and remaining
here until he starts for Minneapolis.
Chairman ClarkSOn has iSSned a. call
for meeting of the Executive Commit
tee of the National Republican League,
to be held at the West Hotel in Min
neapolis on the forenoon of June 6. The
object of the meeting is to hear the re-
port of the subcommittee and take
action concerning the time for holding
the next National League Convention,
and to transact such other business as
may be deemed advisable.

The Golden Club Holds Forth.

LONDON, May 21.-In view of the
recent utterances of Lord Salisbury, the
Golden Club has adopted resolutions de-
claring that it will welcome ali efforts
that are based upon sound economical
principles to draw closer the relations
between Great Britain and her colonies.
The resolutions further declare that the
club is convinced that fiscal union of
the empire by differential tariffs levied
against the rest of the world, which are
advocated in certain quarters. would be
politically dangerous and economically
disastrous. The only practical fiscal
federation of the empire, the resolutions
say, must be based on free trade and the
self-government colonies adopting the
nou-protectiye policy Of Great Britian.

ATTLEBoRo, Mass, May 21.-A heavy
fall of rain here during the past 4s hours
caused the water in the Ten Mile river
to rise very rapidly and at 12 10 p. m. to-
day the dam at Farmers gave way, al
lowing an immense body of water, cover
ing fully 100 acres, to tear down stream.
The water poured into the boiler room
at the electric light station, where it rose
to the height of 30 inches. Below here.
the tracks of the Old Colony branch
road were washed away for about $50
feet, stopping all travel for some time.
This great body of water foated from
this point into Mechanics pond and
spread out over 100 acres below this.
just below here stands the jewelry shop
of A: Bushee 6 Co., and the water
soon flooded the boiler room, putting out
the fires. Fears ave expressed for the
safety of two or three more dams on the
river, and, should these give way, much
damage will be caused.

HELD UP BY MASKED MEN,
They Killed the Express Messenger, but
Secured No Booty.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, May 22.-Four
masked men attempted to rob an express
car attached to train No. IA on the Jack
sonville, Tampa 6 Key West Railroad
this morning. They killed one express
messenger and shot the nose off another.
They would have killed him too had not
the train hands come to his rescue. The
outlaws escaped to the woods.
When the train was tagged, the four
masked men jumped on the engine and
two on the express car. Those on the
engine, with pistols at the heads of the
engineer and fireman, compelled them
to go ahead slowly, then stopping the
train at the head of a long trestle leading
to the bridge across the St. Johns river
The engineer and fireman were then
marched into the second car from the
tender and locked in.
In the meantime, while all this had
been taking place ON the engine, a des-
perate and bloody affray was being
enacted in the express car. When the
robbers got on the train, one met Express
Messenger Saunders at the door of the
car and covered him with pistol, order
him to throw up his hands. Saunders
made a dash for his pistol in his iron
chest near by, but no sooner had he
done so than bullet crashed into his
brain and another through his breast.
He ran to the other end of the car and
fell out on the platform with his head
hanging over the steps where he expired
J. M. Cox was in the same car with
Saunders and Immediately made for the
robber. Cox is large and powerfully
