Reminded of His Youthful DAYS

If you want to live to a good old age, do
not buy or try to drive IL horse that has
ever belonged to the fire department. A
friend who ONE into market three times
IL week some time ago got such a horse, and
the animal did well enough until one night
about o'clock as he was coming in with a
load the fire bells rung as he was passing
an engine house. The old horse pricked up
his ears and threw up his tail, and when
the engine came out he took after it at u
gallop. All efforts to hold him were in
vain. He was going to the fire, and he got
there, too, as soon as the engine did, though
he left some of his load ON every block on
the road.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

Improved Pullman Car Service.

Commencing Mondaysnight, May 9Th,
the Pullman parlor car arriving at Port
land at 5 o'clock on the train leaving
Boston via the Western Division at p.
M, will leave Portland at $40, running
through to Waterville by the way of
Lewiston; and will return via the same
route, leaving Waterville on No. - at
9.25 a. M, and running through to Bos-
ton via the Western Division, arriving
there at 4.50 p. m. AS will be seen, this
not only gives Pullman service direct be-
tween Boston and Lewiston, which has
never before been the case, but also gives
people between Lewiston and Waterville
the benefit of parlor car service, which
they have never enjoyed in any manner
before. Commencing April 1st
the Pullman Company took charge of all
the parlor and sleeping cars on the Bos-
ton & Maine railroad, and have with
drawn what were called the old Boston
& Maine parlor cars and substituted
those of their own make, of new and ele-
giant design. tits hoped that the people
living along the line of the ''back road"
between Portland and Waterville will ap-
preciate the special accommodations off
cred by this service.

A SHOOTING ARRAY IN LITTLE ITALY.
GFrom our Regular Correspondent
Two men who belong in Bangor but
have been working here lately crossed
the river to attend dance in Mexico
last Friday evening. They returned late
at night and as they passed the italian
quarters the man ahead saw one coming
toward him with an AK in his hand. He
shouted to him to stop but as the italian
showed no intention of doing so, he
pulled revolver and threatened to
shoot. This did not discourage the
'sDago'' who pressed on with his AK.
The revolver snapped and the howl
which followed indicated that some one
had been hit. The cries of the wounded
man and the report of the revolver
aroused the inhabitants of Little Italy
who came out in swarms. The man
who had shot attempted to fight them
single handed and was getting much the
worst of it when the other man, who
had retreated at first, let drive another
shot 1t didn't take effect but scattered
the Italians until the two men could get
out of the way. The one who was en-
gagged in the hand-to-hand fight was
badly cut about the face and had one
severe scalp wound. 1t is learned that
the Italian who first declared war re-
ceiyed the ball from the mans revolver
in the feshy part of the shoulder.

A Bar Mills Young Man Terribly Beaten

Bar Mills Young Man Terribly Beaten.
The Biddeford Times says: The dance
at Larrabee's hall, Scarboro, on Fast
night, came near ending with murder,
although but two Or three present were
aware of the fact. A. G.. Pennell, a
highly respected young man of Bar
Mills, while strolling about in the open
air smoking, after supper, was brutally
assaulted and beaten into insensibility
and left lying on the ground. Being
missed by his friend, Mr.. Pitts, search
was instituted and he was found as de-
scribed, the rain beating upon him in
torrents. He had large, 3S-calibre re-
volver in his hand, which had one bullet
missing, supposed to have been fred at
hig assailant which probably frightened
him off. Mr.. Pennen was quickly moved
to sleeping room and the affair has been
kept quiet. He was removed to his heme
the next day, where he still lies in pre-
carious condition, never having fully
gained consciousness.

Relics of eye olden Time"

To the Editor of the Press:
Recently while in Boston, on the way
to New York to witness the great naval
parade and review, Charles W. Holden,
ESQ.,, showed SINE four copies OF the
Eastern Argus of the dates of October
20, 1912; March 8, 1914; September s,
1914; and September s, 1920. They were
presented him by George Clark, who will
probably be remembered by some of the
older citizens of Portland; he. having
learned his trade of cabinet making with
his uncle, George Clark, whose shop then
stood on Congress street, opposite Owen,
Moore & Cos. In 1912, that shop took
fire. 1t was consumed. as well as the
Patten hotel and both sides of Brown
street, from Congress to Free streets,
with the exception of the Davies house,
which was recently demolished to make
way for the Hanson block, corner of Con-
gress and Oak streets. Some time after
the fire Mr.. Clark took up his residence in
Boston, where he is still in the piano bus
mess. The papers measured 81 inches
long, 20 wide and were very brown. AS
they were quite interesting to me, I
thought would take few notes, and
perhaps they may be pleasing to many of
your readers.
Among the contents of October 20,
1872, was proclamation from President
Madison. pardoning certain soldiers who
had deserted the army, and had returned
to duty. Among the many advertise
ments were Browns Crockery, Column
bian Row, near Hay Market; Royal Lin
coin, dry goods, Exchange street; B. G..
Atwood, crockery, Hay Market Row;
Stephen Patten, book store and lottery
Office, Exchange street; Williams Evans,
hardware, Middle street; Joseph Pope,
agent for Almy & Brown, Providence,
American cotton goods.
March 8, 1914, the Argus was threat
ened by an anonymous correspondent
with the destruction of its printing ma
terial for some particular grievance.
Among the advertisers were Oliver S.
Hartshorn, boots and shoes, Middle
street; Stephen Deland, confectioner,
Exchange street, next door to Cumber-
land bank; Belknap g, Runnells, No. 1
Mussey block; L. q A. 81. Cross, grocer
les, Union Row. A meeting was called
for the Portland Light Infantry, for the
first Friday in March, at Z o'clock, j.
Poole, Jr., clerk.
September s, 1914, found an anthem
tic account of the capture of
Washington; an appeal to the public for
the defence of the town and harbor,
Daniel Tucker, chairman. Among the
advertisements are VIM. Oxnard, dry
goods, Mussey's Row; Thomas Merrill,
Jr., general merchandise, 5 Union
wharf.
September, 1920, the second and third
pages of the paper were entirely enclosed
in mourning columns. for the death of
Francis Douglass, editor and proprietor
of the Eastern Argus, he having been
accidently shot in a boat while going to
the islands for few hours sport.

Captain Hamilton's Pooketbook.

John 7. Emerson, baggage master at
the western division station in Saco,
made an interesting find one day last
week. He and Roadmaster Smith were
near the Saco end of the Gooch street
bridge. Just off the roadway, in the
grass, Mr.. Emerson found long fiat
pocketbook. In it he found check for
1925 on the Rockland Trust Company,
dated October 20, 1891, in favor of Cap
tain J. F. Hamilton, and endorsed. There
were other papers, among them one con-
tanning Captain Hamilton's address in
Portland. There was no money in the
pocketbook. Captain Hamilton lost the
pocketbook in the fall of 1891. He
thinks it was stolen from him while he
was working on the breakwater at the
mouth of the Saco. 1t contained then
small sum of money.

Can Smoke on the Grounds,

Callow young men with cigarettes con-
cealed about their clothes have Stunned
Jackson park for weeks past. That was
because Of the rule declaring to all that
Smoking Is Prohibited on These
Grounds" And the rule was well backed
up by the Columbian guards, so that the
fair has SO far been the most successful
preventer of the tobacco habit on record.
But Of late the rule has been relaxed to
the extent of allowing smoking in the Ad-
ninistration building and in other Offices.
Now comes the announcement that as
soon after May as safety will permit
smoking will be allowed all over the
