GRAND AND IMPOSING.
Mount Etna's Display of Volcanic Pyro-
technics.

CArAN1A, July 15.-The situation at
Mount Etna is steadily growing worse.
The main crater is gradually extending
and the mass of red hot stones, lava and
scoria which it is voiding is increasing
in volume and violence of expulsion.
Showers of fiery stones, many of them of
huge size, and molten matter are some
times projected into the air to the height
of 1000 feet and dense clouds of
smoke and ashes hover continually over
the crater. At night the sight is grand
and imposing. Two new cones, each
about 500 feet high, have been formed
and from these streams of lava are con-
stantly flowing. The lava is advancing
in threatening manner in the direction

pEERlNG's POLAND SPRING.
Charles Goodridge's Plans to Store Water
From the Big Skies.
Especial to the Press.l

BANGOR, July 15.-Mr. Charles L..
Goodridge of Deering was in this city
Thursday in consultation with the firm
of Leighton, Davenport & Co., relative
to the building of a reservoir for the Big
Six springs on Rocky Hill, Deering, and
on the estate of his father, Charles Good
ridge, Esq. The Bangor firm is author
ity on this kind of work and recently
had an extensive contract at the Ottawa,
Portland harbor.
One of these boiling springs has been
known for over 70 years. Before Deer
ing became other than country town,
the Oldtown Indians came there annual
ly bringing their sick and aged. They
had great faith in the spring for which
they had an unpronounceable and al
most unspellable name, which inter-
preted means ''big medicine water =
Often they tarried for weeks beside the
spring until at last, some years ago, the
Indian squaws took to milking the COWS
of the farmers and city people and were
driven away by Mr.. Goodridge, Sr. But
the Indians did not depart without much
lamentation and this caused Charles l..
Goodridge to make crowbar investiga-
ton about the estate, which resulted in
the discovery of five other springs. The
estimated flow is about $4,000 gallons
each "a hours. The water is COOL soft
and it has demonstrated great efficacy in
certain troubles, has been prescribed
by some Portland physicians and is now
bing used by some well known Portland
business men.
Mr.. Kicker, of the Poland Spring, who
finds ready market for all the water
that flows at Poland, has advised Mr..
Goodridge to barrel and bottle the
water for market. but Charles has an
other plan. He will under the advice OF
Leighton, Davenport q Co., build a
reservoir and lift the water to a so feet
head, and will then pipe for Deering
houses that lay lower than Rocky Hill.
The work will be begun Monday.
1t is thought the water veins on Rocky
Hill can be tapped in several places, and
it may be that in the future, out.of the
| new enterprise, will grow in Deering a
second Poland Spring establishment.

THE DALTON GANG Did IT.
They Held Up a Train and Secured a
Comfortable Fortune.
BRAVE PASSENGERS FIGURED AS
TARGETS FOR THE ROBBERS,

While Cowardly Travellers Lay in the
Aisles and Under the Seats in the
Cars-The Express Messenger Was
PIucky Until They Threatened to
Blow Up the Car With Dynamite
Then Discretion Conquered and He
Surrendered.
GUTHRIE, o. T., July 15.-The Missou-
ri, Kansas G. Texas passenger train No.
2, south bound, was held up by gang
of masked robbers at Adair, I. T., late
last night. 1t is said the amount secured
by the robbers is between $50, 900 and
$4,000. The robbery was not accom-
plished without hard fight, however. in
which Captain ]. J. Kinney, chief of de-
tectives of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas
railroad, L. A. Flora, a member of the
Indian police, a1d two doctors, passen-
gers on the train, and residents of Adair,
were wounded.
When the train was few miles from
Adair, two men went to the engine and
ordered the engineer to stop. AS the
train came to standstill, shots were
heard outside. Captain Kinney, Flora
and the two doctors rushed from the
cars and opened fire on the two men
who were standing at the side of the ex>s
press car. As the firing began, several,
men emerged from the darkness, andp
they, too, opened fire. A lively fusilade ems
sued, in the course of which Kinney,
Flora and the two doctors were wound
ed. None of the other passengers came
to their aid and they were forced to re-;
treat into the cars, their revolvers being
empty The men who had last appeared
kept up lively firing for the purpose of
intimidating passengers on the train,
and with excellent effect, as not a soul
appeared. As a matter of fact, most of
them were under their seats or lying in
the car aisles. The two men at the ex-
press car were joined by a third, only
one man being left with the engineer and
fireman.
Up to this time the messenger had
persisted in his refusal to open the door.
One of the robbers then shouted that he
had placed dynamite under the car and
would blow it to atoms if the door was
not opened. The messenger then yield
ed and opened the door. The three men
sprang into the car, and
while one covered the terrified
messenger with his gun, the others
turned their attention to the safe. The
work of blowing il open was soon accom-
plished and the contents quickly extract
ed. After relieving the messenger of his
watch, the robbers bound him and
dumped him in corner of the car. They
then leaped to the ground and firing sew
eral shots disappeared. After it became
certainty that the robbers had gone,
the train started for Adair. AS soon as
the station was reached the alarm was
given, posse hastily formed and re-
turned to the scene of the robbery. No
traces of the thieves were discovered.
That they were members of the Dalton
gang, headed by the Daltons themselves,
is beyond peradventure. The officials
here are reticent as to the amount of
money received by the thieves, but the
sum given above is vouched for by an Of
fetal of the express company.

Wisdom from Abroad.

LONDON, July 15.-The News says:
eThe Idaho troubles, following those at
Homestead, seem to show that
there is something rotten in the
troubles may become real help if they
destroy the ''spread-eagleism' which as
sumes that the social problems which
perplex us have all been solved there. 1t
may be remembered that Zola predicted
that the fercest outbreak against organ
lied capital would probably occur in a
new country like America
An article in the Chronicle concludes:
SIT is idle to expect that any country can
exist in a healthy state where theoreti-
cal political equality accompanies actual
gross and social inequality, where social
forces go to create millionaires at one
end of the scale and tramps at the other.
and where millionaires are permitted to
hire and drill the scum of society to
shoot down workers.

CAME AS A SURPRISE,
Assessment Levied on Maverick Bank
Stockholders.

H
BosToN, July 15.-The announcement
that the stockholders of the Maverick
bank are to be assessed, came as sur
prise to most people who had supposed
the assets sufficient to meet the liabil-
tiles. There are likely to arise many in
teresting legal questions as to the Eabili-
ty of certain stockholders as there did in
the case of the Pacific National Bank. 1t
is suggested that the holders of the stock
who took it as collateral for loans to
French and Potter may be liable by rea-
son of having the stock transferred to
them when the loan was made. There
are about 1875 stockholders outside Pot
ter, French and Dana, who will be called
upon to contribute. The holders are
scattered all over New England, many
being savings banks.

Mr.. Oates on the Trouble.
WASHINGTON, July 15.-The special
committee of the House which has been
engaged in the investigation of the
Homestead troubles returned from
Pittsburg to Washington this morning.
Chairman Oates, in speaking of the in
vestigation, said the committee had not
found things SO bad at Homestead as
they expected. The differences between
the strikers and the company were not
composed and they were about as lar
apart now as they were at the beginning
of the trouble. Mr.. Oates says the mil
itary are in complete control at Home
stead and no trouble is expected while
they are there, but he is confident if the
military are withdrawn and non-union
men brought in to take the places OF
those now out, serious and most disas-
trous results are sure to follow.

Ever since New York was settled the
