Providence. ,..R. l.. treasurer of the Royal
Fossil Flour Company, owners and oper-
ators of the silica plant at Beddington,
Washington county, had a severe expe-

from Beddington some miles distant to
inspect silica deposit, with a guide.
They travelled some time when they
found they were hopelessly lost, going
about in circle. After several hours,
Mr.. Haines became exhausted aad the
guide went off alone in hope of finding
some camp: He succeeded and party
of lumbermen went in search of Haines,
who was found lying in the snow where
he had fallen from exhaustion. He was
taken to the camp rnd revived. Exposure
for short time longer would undoubt-
edly resulted in death.

pERILs OF THE SEA.
Experience of an American Bark
Off Hatteras. 7-~

New YORK, January 4.-American
bark Herbert Fuller from Brunswick,
Ca, brings - persons, consisting of Cap
tain Bunker, master of the schooner Le-
vanter, abandoned off Cape Hatteras last
Tuesday. his wife, son and nine sailors.
The Levanter hailed from Thomaston,,
Me. She sailed from Brunswick a few
days before the Herbert Fuller. When
off Cape Hatteras, December Goth. the
wind was terrific from the north and east
and the sea rose to an unusual height.
The Levanter finally sprung aleak. At
daylight on the 9th she was so rifles
east Of the cape, with six or seven feet
of water in her hold. At noon the YES
sci became waterlogged, the steerage
gear gave out and she became unmanage-
able. At o'clock the vessel had sunk
to the upper deck and the rigging was
one mass of ice, freezing thicker and
thicker as the sea dashed against it.
At 10p. m. tile captain ordered all
hands to lash themselves to the house
top and even then the sea constantly
broke over them. This condition of
when the bark Herbert Fuller sighted
the distressed vessel, 10 miles north of
Cape Hatteras, bore down to her and
rescued all on board. All hands were on
the house top for 53 hours, the vessel
drifting completely at the mercy of the
sea. Captain Nash says the rescue was
effected after great difficulty. It took.
three hours to complete the work and
the high sea came near swamping the
boats several times. The majority of the
men were badly frostbitten.

Especial to the Press.]

Especial to the Press.]
BATH, January About II o'clock
Tuesday night Officer Crocker discovered
fire in the three story wooden block
near the corner of Centre and Washing
ton streets. The blaze started in the
. back room of E. J. Murphy's grocery
store and burned fiercely among the
kerosene barrels. The barber shop of
Chas. Curtis. Tarbox,s fruit store and
Z Chase's market were badly damaged by
smoke and water. The upper stories of
the building were occupied by O.. r..
Adams. tailor and repairs, Street Com
missioner o. F. Williams and several
dodgers. The firemen succeeded in
keeping the flames away from the
Alameda, which, is directly behind the
place where the fire started. Had the
Alameda caught the city would have lost
her only dance hall. The report that
help was summoned from out of town is
incorrect, as the department were fully
equal to all that was required of them.
The loss is about $4,000. The building
where the fire started had only recently
been repaired receiving an additional
story. 1t was badly scorched. The
other buildings we're damaged by smoke
and water.

The Cumberland delegation met this
evening and organized by the choice of
Senator Mallet as chairman and Carroll
W. Morrill, of Portland clerk, Hon. NJ.
F. King of Portland was the unanimous
choice of the delegation for councillor
from the second district.
Democratic Caucus.
The Democrats had the liveliest Of
times at their caucus. Simon S. Brown
presided. Most of the lengthy list of
would-be candidates for state assessor
were put in nomination. Then the con-
vention balloted half dozen times,
while excitement ran high. On the
seventh ballot the contest narrowed to
three aspirants, and Geo. w. Pottle of
Lewiston was nominated. Llewellyn
Barton of Portland had Is votes and +.
G. Rogers of Hampden four.
The motion was made that councillor
district and not county of candidates
present the candidate for councillor
Before this was voted upon, pretty war
of words came up, the aniInus being
the old soreness from the fourth district
congressional fight between Powers and
Leavitt D. C. Parker Of Danforth want
ed the district and not the county to
nominate. He wanted to see a straight
Democrat and not a kicker nominated.
This talk and more like it we're fire
brands to the burning. Things were
getting hot. S. B. Hunt of Robbinston
spoke for Leavitt and in favor of the
county presenting the name. The old
congressional difficulties were revived
vigorously and in not at all compliment
tary terms.
After several motions, shows of hands
and some confusion, John G. Talbot re-
ceived the nomination of councillor from
the 7th district, he getting 10 votes and
Gen. Leavitt votes. Stephen Scammon
is the candidate from Cumberland, r.
T. Rundlett from Lincoln, A. S. Kimball
from Oxford, R. Fl. Moody from Waldo,
Samuel w. Gould from Somerset. For
secretary of state, VIM, A. Pennell of
Brunswick; for treasurer, Jere q. Shaw
of Biddeford; for attorney general, ]. Fl.
Montgomery.
Then motion was made to adjourn to
next Tuesday evening, when candidate
for senator might be present, and the
faithful could indulge in love feast. 1t
is understood that Harold Sewall will
run up from Bath with speech in his
pocket OIL that occasion. Certainly the
motion did not refer to Mr.. Brown for he
was very much present this evening.

ges the Minister'S Title.
The new Methodist Discipline
embodying the fundamentallaw Of the
church, as adopted by the general con-
ference Of 1892, is now being distri-
buted. "A veteran Methodist minister
says; .sThere is very notable change
in this Discipline concerning the re-
lation Of the minister to his people.
Heretofore, in every reference to the
minister, he was called the preacher
in charge. He is no longer called
that, but in every section Of the Dis
cipline' in which the minister is refer
red to he is called the pastor. In no
case that I can find has this been neg
lected. The General conference has
emphasized the change that has come
over the churches. Methodist congre-
cations are becoming more and more
convinced that churches need pastors
more than they do preachers, and they
measure the chances Of administer more
by his qualities as a pastor than BY
his qualities as a preacher"
