What Snakes in a Barber Shor
 Means.

Did you ever hear barber call out "Snakes!" instead of the old fashioned "Next?n If so, you probably thought it was an exhibition of good-natured eiarity on the part of the barber and nothing more. Well, you were mis- taken, then. s'Snakesln means some thing to every barber who hears it. It is signal by which the barber who uses it lets his fellow workmen know that the man who is about to take the chair does not bestow tips" or gratui- ties.
 Hardly complimentary term to ap- ply to man who gets shaved every day and pays fifteen cents every time, but l have frequently heard it used under those circumstances.

General Dow Addresses an Open Air
Meeting.

A very large open air meeting was adj
dressed by General Neal Dow last even
ing at the corner of Howard and Quebec
streets, in the eastern portion of the city.
Rev. A. H. Wright opened the meeting
with prayer, in which he referred to
the coming election and prayed for the
reelection Of Sheriff Cram. General
Neal Dow was introduced and spoke for
nearly an hour on the need of self denial
to the young man who expects to sue
coed in life. He said it was the getting
of the first thousand dollars that insured
financial thrift; and financial thrift was
very necessary for a Christian life be-
cause it enabled one to do a greater
amount of good. General Dow spoke
vigorously against the use of tobacco as
filthy and wasteful habit, and advised
his young hearers against it. But he
warned them M ost earnestly against the
grog shops, which are traps set for young
men just as rat traps are set for rats.
The success of the grog shops depends
on their ability to train young men up to
drink. In closing General Dow exhorted
his hearers to do all they could to secure
the reelection of Sheriff Cram.

licences of the city were quite brilliant

THE BOARD OF HEALTH.
They VIII Take ALI Precautions in Regard
to the Cholera.

A reporter for the PRESS called on
President Jordan of the State Board OF
Health yesterday afternoon and asked
him if he had anything for publication in
regard to the protection to be afforded the
state from the scourge of cholera that is
now threatening the country. President
Jordan stated that the State Board was
fully in accord with the national govern
ment in this matter and that communi-
cations had passed between them, each
assuring the other of hearty cooperation.
A commission from the different states
is now visiting the cities of the Domin-
ion to ascertain what steps are being
taken there to prevent the infection
from reaching these shores. DR.. Young
of the Maine Board, owing to his lame
ness from his accident, was not able to
CO. President Jordan stated that what
ever occurred that would be beneficial
for the public to know at any time would
be at once furnished the press by him.
A telegram from the Board of Health
of Illinois the past week was received,
asking that this state act with them and
send petition to the authorities at
Washington to suppress all immigration
After consultation with the Massachu-
sctts authorities, President Jordan, Drs.
Young and Smith sent telegram to Dr..
Wyman, surgeon general of the United
States Hospital service, saying that the
Maine Board doubts the value of consul
lar certificates from infected ports and
urges suspension of immigration from
such ports.
DR.. Meserye, chairman of the Portland
Board, said that for the past six weeks
the board had quietly prepared for any
epidemic that might threaten us. The
city, he said, was in very fair condition
from sanitary point of view. In some
cases where parties had declined to obey
the health officers orders, the street de
partinent had kindly co-operated with
the health department. and then police
man had been detailed to accompany the
inspector and the parties offending had
been notified that recurrence of the Of
Tense would be followed by arrest. The
condition of the premises referred to is
now excellent and the former offenders
no longer offend. The United States
Hospital service will work in conjunction
with the city board, so that there may be
no waits or hesitancy if cholera ships, or
any other vessels with epidemic
diseases should appear. At present
we have no steam communica-
tion with infected ports, and
it will not be until the last of November
that the ocean steamers will commence
to run here, and then it will be cold
weather, when cholera is apt to be less
active than in warm, moist weather.
But in this connection it may be well to
state that owing to the prevalence of
cholera in Russiayas well as yellow fe-
yer in South America. the Board of
Health have voted and instructed the
harbor master and pilots to stop at quar-
antine and hold until inspected all YES
sells arriving at this port from Asiatic,
South American, French or Mediterra-
mean ports, and also any vessel from any
port not having a clear bill of health
from consular officers at port of clear
