AN IMMENSE SUCCESS
was Millie Luline's Leap at Peaks Island
Yesterday.

Mile Luline has come and jumped
and conquered Peaks Island. She is an
exceedingly gritty and clever little wo-
man and her balloon ascension and leap
yesterday was one of the prettiest ever
seen in this vicinity. The idea of a
woman Bronaut is a novelty and the
crowd went down yesterday expecting to
see a big athletic female but were
amazed to find that Miss Luline is a
slight unassuming woman, weighing per
haps a hundred pounds. 1t was just
5.45 when everybody let go'' was
shouted and the balloon shot up. 1t
rose to considerable height and foated
gracefully over toward Diamond Island.
When over the school house Miss Luz
line cut loose and dropped with her para
chute. 1t seemed long time in open
ing and the spectators held their breath,
bnt it did open and the plucky girl
descended easily alighting in an old cellar
back of the school house. 1t was
beautiful sight and the crowd cheered
her Justify. The management have
secured her to make another jump next
Wednesday, and all who have not seen it
should go down then.

A Lively Affair.

Yesterday afternoon, quite an excite
ment was created on Portland Pier and
the end of Custom House wharf. The
wharves were filed with interested on
lockers. A Jew pedlar had taken boat
belonging to a negro employed on a
schooner in the harbor, and gone off
with it to peddle his goods. When he
returned the negro demanded half a dol
lar for the use of the boat. The pedlar
refused, and the negro rowed the boat
out into the stream with the pedlar
aboard, threatening to brain him with
an oar if he attempted to leave. Every
little while he would demand his money,
and the pedlar would refuse to pay. The
negro rowed the Jew to the schooner.
How the affair terminated was not
learned.

THE CHASE CASE.
Claimed for Raising Commercial
Street.

The case of Daniel Chase ct ais, appel
lants from the judgment of the municipal
officers of Portland, was yesterday morn
ing argued before the Law Court, Hon.
Chase appearing as counsel for plaintiffs.
and City Solicitor Larrabee for the de-
fence.
In this case the petitioners seek to re-
cover from the City of Portland damages
for alleged injury occasioned them as
owners of certain land with buildings
thereon on Commercial street in Port
land by the raising of said street by the
city in front of petitioners said property
during the months of June, July and
August, 1891.
Proceedings were commenced by the
petitioners September I, 1891, under the
provisions of section IS of Revised Stat
utes, as amended by chapter 81 Public
Laws of 1887. Application was season
ably made to the municipal officers of
Portland to view said street and assess the
damages caused by the alleged raising of
the street in June, July and August of
the same year. View of the premises
was had by the municipal officers, Octo
Der Ia, 1891, hearing had and petitioners
were given leave to withdraw. Appeal
was taken and complaint to the Supreme
Judicial Court under provisions of sec
ton is of said chapter 10 of Revised Stat
utes as amended by section of chapter
$50 of the Public Laws of 1885, was en-
tered at the January term, 1892, of said
court.
The case was tried at the October term,
1892, before jury, and the jury were al
lowed to view the premises. The jury
returned a verdict that the defendant did
raise said Commercial street in manner
and form as the petitioners claimed, but
that the petitioners suffered no damages
thereby.
The petitioners filed motion praying
that the verdict be set aside and new
trial granted, claiming that the verdict is
against evidence and the weight of evil
dence in the case, and against law and
the charge of the justice.
The petitioners also fled exceptions to
the alleged refusal of the presiding JUS
tice to give certain instructions to the
jury which were requested, and to GER
tain portions of the judges charge. No
part Of the testimony was made part of
the case SO far as the exceptioEs were
considered. The bill raises no question
as to the admissiblity of any evidence
g;;1.-,-. or excluded in the trial of the case.

The Man was Probably not Mr.. Thurston.

1Ho iuah WIS HfoDaDIy nOG Mrs InursCOn.
Mr.. W. F. Phinney, of Standish, was
in the city yesterday, and gave the PRESS
some information which he thought
might have some bearing on the disap-
pearance Of Mr.. Samuel Thurtton. Mr..
Phinney says that last Wednesday after
noon he was driving toward Gilead vii
lage from the west when, at distance
of about mile from the village he over
took an elderly gentleman, who was
walking towards Gilead. 1t was about
2.45 o'clock p. M, Mr.. Phinney was
Fastening to take the train, and thinking
the man might be going for the same
purpose, invited him to ride. The man
thanked him very courteously but de-
clined. He was carrying canvass ex-
tension bag as Mr.. Phinney remembers
and had agrey beard. His clothes were
not at all travel stained. and Mr.. Phinnev
thought at the time that he might be a
clergyman of the region. On seeing in
the PRESS the circumstances of Mr..
Thurston's disappearance, it occurred to
him that he might have met him that
day.
IT seems hardly probable that the man
could have been MI. Thurston, who was
last seen near Gorham, N. H., on Thurs
day of the week before. Had he re-
turned to the neighborhood of Gilead
his sister would have been likely to have
heard from him.

A Rowing Carnival.

1t is proposed to Ihold grand rowing
carnival in the lower harbor some after
noon in August. Prizes will be offered
for best decorated row boat and best deco
rated steam launch. and one for the boat
containing the prettiest young ladies. 1t
is expected that boats will be entered
from Cushings, Little and Great Dia-
mond, Forest City, Trefethen's and Ever
green landings. The boats will probably
be towed by steamer near the landings
at Peaks Island, SO that the crowd can
go down on the Casco Bay steamers and
witness it.
