1850, was indeed memorable day IN the
annals of these United States, for on that
day President Fillmore set his autograph
to the many acts which terminated the
longest and storiniest session of congress
ever held before the war era. By that
series of acts the status of all the region
acquired from Mexico was fixed, the terri
tories were organized on uniform plan

slavery controversy was put to sleep for
ever'-so they said. The next year, how

to allow him to pass Judgment on the
general question.
Mr.. Alfred D. Warren of Worcester, was
called, and explained how the estate
happened to hold the note of S31, 000
against himself and brother. His father
had given them money for their business
from time to time, and had taken the
note so that in case they had trouble in
their business, he could come in as a
creditor. But he never intended that
they should pay the note
In the course of Mr.. Warren's testimony
as to the various efforts to divide the
estate, he let drop the remark that a
certain event happened about the time
Mr.. Oxnard gave up his residence in
Maine.
Judge Symonds was quick to remark
" You mean Mr.. Cram :"
mean Mr.. OXnard, Mr.. Edward p.
OXnard," replied the witness positively.
Did you ever give up your residence
here?" asked Judge Symonds of Mr.. Ok
nard
:" never knew that did, replied the
latter.
Yes" continued the witness, Mr.. Ok
nard gave up his residence and went to
Baltimore or Washington, desiring to be
out OF the jurisdiction Of this court in
case the efforts to divide the estate
among the heirs should succeed.
Judge Symonds cross-examined the
witness very vigorously, bringing out
the fact that he had not asked Mr.. Ok
nard for list of the securities at the
time OF the movement to Dust the latter,
although one of the grounds of the move
ment was an allegation Of bad invest
ments. Whenever hetthought of getting
a statement from Mr.. Oxnard the ques-
ton of division would come up, and he
did not persist He admitted that he
rrh fT la, cir fear
was always before him that by stirring
up the question OF Investigation of the
securities he would be putting off the
division of the estate.
"So,n said Judge Sysnonds forcibly,
after the witness had Stated these facts
You had determined to have these
trustees removed before you knew there
was any of this alleged misconduct on
the part the trustees?"
Yes"
= { So at the time you came down to have
these trustees removed you did not know
of this alleged misconduct"
Witness did not at first admit this
directly; but finally conceded it.
Mr.. Alfred F. LILLY of Westfeld, Mass !,
an officer and attorney Of the Westfeld
Savings bank, testified as to the standing
of the Warrens in Westfeld. expressing
his opinion that their property there was
worth one hundred and fifty Thousand
dollars, exclusive of their interest in the
estate.
Mr.. William Warren of Westfieid was
called and testified as to his relations
with the trustees. Cross-examined he
said he thought Mr.. Oxnard had general
II been a faithful trustee although he
had some uneasy reflections about the
tax evading policy.
This concluded the evidence; and the
arguments of counsel will be made to-
day, beginning at 10 am.

why They Came.

Two "big gunsn of the Salvation
Army, a converted Turk and a Hindoo
ex-priest, are to make their appearance
in Portland tonight and Sunday. and
one OF Portland's citizens has already
raised the question, "Why didn't they
stop in their own countries, instead of
coming to the States?" That is easily
told. Captain Garabed, the Turk,
emigrated TO California to pick up little
gold. There he turned into one of the
| biggest drunkards in San Francisco,
and then the Salvation Army picked
| him up, got him soundly converted, dis
covered and helped to develope his
preaching abilities, and lastly set him
on the war path,
If any Of our esteemed citizens want to
know why he doesn't return to his nat
i've land, it is because the Salvation
Army has not aopenedn that country,
and its officers do not set out on indie
pendent mission. Besides, this manly
son of the East is eminently successful
in getting Americn heathens converted,
and there is sufficiently broad field for
his work here. In one of his meetings
in Lewiston, last week, ten or twelve
white people professed conversion.
That sort of thing oughtto be warrant
enough for staying on, and it ought TO
give him a grand welcome wherever@sahe
goes.
The other Eastern star who will light
up the religious horizon of Portland on
Sunday night in the City Hall, is Lord
Ratna Pala, once Buddhist priest, now
Salvation Army captain, like Garabed.
He has been most successful as home
missionary in his native India, but
because of his high education, knowl-
edge of English and brain power, was
considered the right man to send to
England to get help for the evangel-
zation of her great dependency. He
came to the States as one OF General
Booths representatives to the recent
huge Salvationist Congress in New
York, and is ardently sought for to speak
in meetings by different Army District
commanders, during his stay in Ameri-
ca.
Adjutant Brengle has secured him for
a few days in his District, beginning in
Portland on the 18th.
: The meeting tonight and Sunday morn
ing and afternoon will be held in the
Army Barracks, 239 Federal street, and
Sunday night in City hall. There will
be fine instrumental and vocal music at
all these meetings. Il $40

FOOTBALL IN MALAY.
A Game That Might Give Our Own Players
Few Pointers.

A Game That Might Give Our Own Players
q Few Pointers.
Asaong the Malays football has been
in existence from time immemorial,
but it is with them essentially game,
as, for instance, battledoor and shuttle
cock is with us, and it is not contest.
The football is rather smaller than that
used at Fton and is made of wicker
work. Those who join in the game ar
range themselves in wide circle and
kick the ball from one to another with
the inside, or, at times, with the fiat of
the foot. The object of the players is
to keep the ball passing about without
its ever touching the ground or the hand
of any one. Great dexterity is shown
in this performance, and the ball is
usually kicked to very respectable
height. There seems to be no penalty
exacted from player who may kick the
ball badly or fail to kick it at all.
We had our own game of football,
and the Dutchmen, assisted by two
members of our team, scored two goals
to our four During the game the ma,
tives collected in still greater numbers,
and at its termination they begged us
to allow them to have game among
themselves To this we assented, and
two Of US acted as captains of the sides,
numbering about 80 players apiece,
most of whom strippedto the 'sarong, y
and wrapped it round their loins, leav-
ing the rest Of their bodies bare.
The ball was started, and then fol-
lowed one of the most extraordinary
games of football that has ever been
seen. Tho game soon ceased to be
game at all and became veritable bat
tie
AS when sort of lusty shepherds try
Their force at football, care of victory
Makes them salute so rudely, breast to breast,
That their encounter seemed too rough for lest.
Hands, arms and even teeth, were
used on all sides, blood flowed freely,
and scattered about the field were soon
to be seen the wounded, might almost
say, the slain. AS some fell exhausted
to the ground they were removed, and
their places in the fray were taken by
others, who rushed forth eagerly from
the crowd Of spectators.
Shouts of victory and groans of de-
feat rent the air, and at length things
became SO serious that the two captains
were obliged to seize upon the bali and
bolt with it to the pavilion. The game
thus came to an end, and the PLAYERS
withdrew to their homes, with the ex-
cited crowd following at their heels.
This must have been regarded as red
letter day by the native community of
Medan, and the visit of the "Oranae
Puteh" (Finglishmen) will be remem-
bered among them for some time to
come. We received a hint next ,por,,.
ing from the authorities that the natives
must not be allowed to take part in o,,r
games. Fortnightly Review,

The Jubilee Quartette gave concert
in Thatcher Post Hall last night.
The stoddard Lectures.

The Stoddard lecture season is passing
on. On Monday evening next, Mr.. Stod-
dard will appear at City Hall for the last
time but one. In this lecture he will
describe his visit to the island of Ceylon.
Its traditional spicy breezes will became
reality to the listener who witnesses
the illustrations of tropical fruit and
flower SO luxuriant there. A visit to the
interior, up steep hillsides covered with
tea plantations, brings the traveller to
Handy, which was the capital of Ceylon
in the days Of native rulers, and is now a
favorite and beautiful health resort. Re-
embarking, the tourist is landed in the
streets of Bombay, the magnificent city
of Western India; thence to Jeypore, a
city under the dominion of the Maha-
rajah. and typical oriental capital
Journeying still farther inward is reached
the sacred city of the Ganges, Benares,
famed throughout the world. And moth
ing grander can be conceived than the
views of the wonderful Himalaya noun
tains, to which Mr.. Stoddard made a
never o-be-forgotten excursion. This
lecture and its companion OF the last
week, revealing other parts of India
have proved the especial attractions Of
the course, and those desiring tickets
should not delay in securing the few that
remain.
