A Hard winter for the Poor.

"This cold weather which we are hav-
ing this wiuter is making it hard for the
poor said Mr.. Baker, of the Board, to
the PRESS reporter yesterday. We are
helping as many as twenty-five more
families this year than we were last. The
orders issued for the December just
passed were 223, against 161 for Decem-
Der of the year previous. The old and

STRUCK WITH A BOTTLE.
But Mr.. Flaherty Escaped With Bad
Cut.

Yesterday evening three sailors came
into the police Office from three masted
schooner lying in the harbor and com
planned that as they were coming up Ex-
change street they were met by a gang
of hoodlums who urged them to buy bot
ties Of liquor. They refused to buy and
then the fellows assaulted them and ran
off.
A little later Officer Usher pulled in
for the patrol wagon, saying he wanted
it on Fore near Custom House street.
There is poolroom in that vicinity kept
by man whose name was given by the
police as Barnard, and 1t appears that the
gang went in there and after some talk
one of the number named Flaherty,
seized a spittoon and threw it at the pro-
prietor. The proprietor snatched up an
empty bottle and hit Flaherty a smart
blow over the head with it, Flaherty got
out. Officer Usher heard of the row and
went into the pool room to see about it.
While there Fiaherty came back and
broke two panes of glass in . window in
the pool room right before the officers
eyes. Flaherty on arrival at the station
had a very bloody head. DR.. Sullivan
dressed the wounds and said there was
no serious damage done.

GREAT RACING ON PORTLAND
STREET.
Topaz and IThornburg Have Some Warm
Struggles-Topaz "King of the Road
Yesterday.

LII was nipping air yesterday after
noon, but there was a large number
of sleigh riders and spectators on Port
land street. The fun was at the best at
/ about o'clock when there were some
| hundreds of sleighs on the road, and the
sidewalk was lined with people enjoying
the sport, apparently as unconcerned
about the cold as though they were Ca
nadians.
! Nearly all the horses that have been
before mentioned by the PRESS and a
number Of noticeable new ones were
there. Among them was fine pair of
bay colts, Wilks and Goldwood.
They were driven by their own
er, Charley Ilsley, and made handsome
team. David Rines's fast trotting mare
Kitty R did some speedy work under the
skillful guidance of Ira Woodbury..
Judge Haskell was taking the air hi id
his speedy bay and the judge showed
that he had one of the fastest horses on
the street. Everleen was taking along
her owner and Hon. W. F. Milliken at a
very rapid pace. Ed. Clark had a hand
some and fast-stepping pair of blacks. E.
E. Cross had his fast young gelding
Goldleaf-a particularly strong going
and handsome trotter The horse that
attracted as much attention as any was
Trafton's roam stallion Fred Lothian,
2.294 at the Cumberland County Fair
last fall. He had been logged over from
Cumberland Mills and gave some pretty
exhibitions of his speed and action.
The event of the afternoon was two or
three trials between Ira Woodbury's
Topaz and Steve Murray's Thornburg.
They had at least two pretty straight
away heats an d all the rest of the
sleighs cleared the road for them.
Thornburg, with record of 2.19 in his
younger days, is .big-gaited, powerful
going horse, and he could not manage
the uneven places in the road quite as
handily as Woodbury. engineered Topaz
over them, and the latter would finish
a winner by q handsome lead. But
when both horses were trotting level
there was but little if any perceptit lie
difference in their speed. Topaz has
never been sent for fast public
record, and the most that the public
know about his speed is that he Tapped
horse out in $50 and went to the half
in 1.13, or 2.25 clip, At all events he
seemed liking of the road" yesterday.
Some close brushes were witnessed be-
tween the Rines mare, Kitty R, and
Nickerson's PAGER. The speedy PAGER
would get the best 1T at the start. but
the game trotter Kitty, guided by Ira
Woodbury. would be the first at the fin
| ish.
Fred Lanes horse Mabel L, and John
Flannagan's Dick Lambert, had num-
Der of tussles, and the nimble Mabel was
usual too quick for big Dick in such
| footing.
Two ladies took chance in the sport
and hadsa very fast horse, which one of
them managed with rare GOODNESS and
skill, holding the ribbons as calmly as
Budd Doble. and quietly touching her
mare with the whip when little more
speed was desirable.
1.-THE weather holds out there will
probably be quite carnival this after
noon.
