Simpson, made an official visit at the
School for the Deaf on Free street yes
terday. The gentlemen met in the

showed them the workings of the sys-
TEN, and the visitors were highly pleased

joyed for so many years. The council

A Mad Dog in Deering.

: He was little dog, of the mongrel
type, and he went mad in Deering
backyard the other day. Luckily the
outside door was open andshe was headed
in the right direction, for he rushed
yelping and frothing into the cellar, and
the free lion in the barn, of recent news
paper notoriety, scarcely created a better
quality or greater quantity of excite
ment. The neighbor who owned gun
would not venture into the cellar, but
finally the right man appeared, and with
him the requisite Yankee continuance.
He fastened a large hook on large pole,
opened the cellar door, caught the hook
firmly in the collar of the struggling lit
tie animal, hauled it up and dashed it
into pail of hot water. What towards
we are in these days of peaceful security
from any physical danger, except the
attack of microbes Probably the poor
little dog had simply eaten something
that didn't agree with him, and was in
dulging in the canine method of express
ing indigestion.

The Sausage yender DISCHARGED.

Maurice Rodnick, the sausage seller,
who was arrested for assaulting the lit
tie newsboy, Bernard lilies, was arraigned
in the police court yesterday morning.
His brother acted as interpreter, as Maui
rice cannot speak word of English.
Mrs. Illes was present with her son. The
boy testified that on the night of the al
legged assault, he was called across the
street by man who wanted to buy a
paper, and that Rodnick caught him and
threw him down upon an iron graf
ing.
Maurice through his brother said that
the lilies boy had been seen shooting
beans at him all the evening and that he
had chased him. Maurice said he did
not touch the boy, but that the boy had
slipped upon some grape skins and fallen
on the iron grating.
Recorder Tompson called two wit
nesses and after the court had listened to
the evidence Recorder Tompson dis
missed the case giving the respondent
the benefit of the doubt.

Those Iron Thefts.

The Argus yesterday morning found
fault because it claimed Marshal
Triokey didn't put some boys before the
court for stealing railroad iron. The
Marshal says:
Several times there were complaints
made to me about iron being stolen from
the Portland & Rochester railroad, and
at last Officer Frank captured the
offenders. They were mere boys, little
children, who did not know what they
were doing In matters of this kind it
is always better to allow the culprits to
be punished at home. These little thieves
were too young to be sent to the Reform
school and so let them go. The snperin-
tendent of the Portland & Rochester was
perfectly satisfied with the arrangement,
as the junk men returned the iron they
had bought.

a Feminine Bicycilst.

To ride from Lynn, Mass, to this city
on bicycle in twelve hours is feat
that would be creditable to any man and
would be remarkable in d woman, But
young girl arrived in this city recently
at seven O'Clock pm, who had left Lynn
at a little before seven that morning
and had stopped nearly two hours for
dinner on the way. 1t was most credit
able century rum" for the distance is
over 100 miles. From Kennebunk to
Portland she did not once dismount.
She is tall and slender and weighs not
more than ITO pounds She was accom-
panied by young man, who said that
it was the first. time that the ride had
ever been accomplished by feminine
cyclist. 1t would be interesting to see
what that girl could do ina country
where thesroads are smooth.

School Committee.

A special meeting of the school COM
mittee was held yesterday. There were
present Mayor Baxter, Messrs. Allan,
Blake, MCGOWAN and Brownson. The
meeting was called for the purpose of de-
Gliding upon chairs for the new hall in

samples have been submitted to in
dividual members of the committee
during the past week.
On motion of Mr.. Blake it was voted to
purchase 967 folding chairs from the

that are in use in the best High school
buildings in and around Boston, where
they give perfect satisfaction. They will
be arranged in blocks of three and four,
for convenience in handling.

EXPORTING PULP.
A New Maine Business Which Is a
Good Thing for Portland.

The Moosehead Pulp and Paper Com
pany ofSolon, have recently become the
greatest exporters of pulp in the country.
Up to about year this country import
ed great amount Of pulp, but this is
now reversed, and there aer extensive ex-
port shipments. The company has re-
Gently increased their plant by an ad-
dition of so dry tons day and now EN-
ploy 105 men in their mills, beside their
gangs in the woods. Last summer they
made few experimental shipments and
then settled down to their present export
trade, and have heavy orders ahead.
They are adding very largely to the sum
total of the freightage of the state. For
example, the Northern Empire, now at
the P. & .. wharf, will require 80 car
loads for full freight, and she is the
second large vessel loaded within short
time here, and the orders received show
that the company will keep at least one
large vessel constantly loading here. The
pulp will be taken directly to the P. &
". w lltbII lOI Dill pulCut. 1Ho Gals Iun
right alongside and the pulp is sent from
the car to the vessel, but even then full
crew of longshoremen will be required
at that wharf all winter. The company
expect to use UP about 10000, 900 feet of
lumber the coming year. The cargo of
the Northern Empire will go to England.
The company is represented here at this
time by Stanton Day, the president, and
d. F. Mills, the general manager, who
have been making the arrangements
for their export business. They claim
to have the largest pulp mills in the
world, and to do the largest business of
any corporation in their line. They own
vast spruce forests, where for miles the
light can hardly be seen through the
thick trees. In 1888 Stanton Day was a
Boston reporter working for small sal
airy. Now he is doing what promises to
be the most extensive export business in
Maine. The los men employed in the
mills form only portion of the number
in the employ of the corporation.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Professor Carpenter.

But.two more opportunities remain
for people interested, in mesmerism to see
Prof, Carpenters wonderful powers
Portland Theatre has seen large audi
ences thus far this week, and the patrons
have felt more than repaid. 1t is aston
Ish1ng how persons have been made to
crate, sing, indulge in gymnastic exer-
cises, in fact they have done whatever
the professor has seen fit to have them
do. Of course there are many people
ever whom Prof. Carpenter is powerless,
but enough always remains in an audi
ence to afford an evenings entertainment.
There is nothing in the least offensive in
the exhibitions. They are simply an ex-
hibition of the triumph of mind over
matter.

The Maine Eye and Ear Infirmary

necessary funds, and tonight and Satur-
day will repeat @One Day." which was SO
successfully given last year. Remember

doubtedly draw large audience The

superior, to that of last winter. Pro-

Realism and Romanticism, Va subject on
which his position as novelist of &C
knowledged reputation enables him to
