$4,000.

A Saturday last there was hearing be
fore Judge Webb in the United State

Moore of Dublin, Ireland, who seeks to
recover $4,000 damages from Captain An.
drew |. Hall of Rockland, who com
mand the schooner Olive T. Pecker, for
injuries received on the vessel.
Moore claims that he was student in
Dublin University and wanted to sea
the world. He shipped on vessel bound
to New York, and on arrival there went
to Manhattan college, then he went to
Brazil oh steamer as second steward,
and thence to Liverpool. At The latter
port h e shipped as able seaman on a
schooner to st. John, NIB, and from
there on the Olive T. Pecker for PhiIa-
delphia. The vessel anchored off Rock
land on the way.A She carried steam
hosting engine to hoist the sails, and
Moore claims that in hosting sails, ow-
ing to defects in the machinery, his
hand was caught in the ropes. one
thumb was torn off, another SO badly
hurt it had to be amputated, his left
arm broken, and he was otherwise so
badly hurt that he was confined long
time in the United States Marine Hos
pital.
Mr.. Benjnin Thompson of this city
and cx-Attorney General Littlefield ap-
peared for Moore, and Hon. George q.
Bird for Captain Hall. The case was
continued until today, after hearing
Moore's statement, who occupied the
stand the most uf the day.

A HALF HoLlDAYGsueeEsTED.
That Everybody May See the Greatest
Race Ever witnessed in Maine.

AS was stated in Saturdays PPESS
there will be the greatest race ever seen
in Maine at Rigby Park Wednesday af-
ternoon. between Directum and Nelson,
and we understand that movement is
on foot to obtain general half holiday
that day in all business places and profess
sional offices, throughout the city. We
hope that every professional man and
business house will close it's doors at IL
O'Clock Wednesday noon, and thus give
all it's employees a chance to see the
greatest race probably the most of them
will ever see, and also patronize Rigby
Park, an institution of which the city
may well be proud. This will be the
greatest horse event since the days of
P rim cess and Flora Temple.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Dockstader's Minstrels.

Dockstader's Minstrels gave per-
Torrance at Portland Theatre Saturday
night that was one of the best ever seen
here. The singing was admirable and
most artistic. The specialties were first
rate, the Maryelles Archie, Edward
and Dan performing feats of contor-
ton and agility never surpassed on the
stage. The soloists were good, especially
Mr.. Preston and Mr.. Harry leighton.
The musical skit, ain Music Store, y
was first-rate and the Manhattan Quar-
tette was fine. Dockstader made an aw-
fully funny speech and sang some bright
songs. The concluding extravaganza,
"Down in Mobile" was excellent.
The Galley Slave.
: BARLEY Campbell's famous drama,
"The Galley Slave" presented by 1.-The
same company that drew full houses all
last week at the Grand Opera House in
Boston, will be at the theatre October 2,
8 and 4. In the cast is Joseph Wheelock,
one of Portland's old favorites. The pro-
duction is under the personal direction
of Robert and John Campbell, SONS of
the great dramatlst. Several years have
elapsed since the play was last seen in
this city, but it will be readily remem-
bered as one of the most powerful of all
melodramas. Seats will lie on sale at the
box Office th is morning.
Wang.
! 1t is simply to mention the name only
and . Wang" is remembered and greeted
like an old friend, simply because
Wang" than which no comic opera
has had a greater success, brings 18th it
2 gorgeous array of absolutely new and
accurate Siamese costumes and mag
nifcent scenery, which with equal ac-
curacyss represents the Simese localities
in which the scenes of the opera are laid.
This attraction comes to City Hall for
one night only, tomorrow evening, and
will bring to our city carload of seem
cry, drops and properties. In Wang"
one hundred and fifty costumes are used
by the chorus alone. This fact gives
a faint idea of the gorgeousness with
which the opera is put on the stage, and
the scenery is on the same scale of mag
nifcence. d. W.. Truss & Co., directors
and sole owners offs Wang" for the fourth
season, promises everything as represent
ed, and their names is sufficient guar
antee that every promise will be carried
out. The tickets are selling fast at
Stock BRIDGES.
pavy Jones.
1t is said that one of the most complete
comic opera productions this city has
ever seen, Fred Miller, Jr., is the new nau-
tical comic opera, "Davy Jones,n which
has just closed run of 100 nights at the
Boston Museum, and will be presented at
City Hall. The Boston, cast, scenery,
their own orchestra, will make per-
Torrance that will more than please the
most fastidious opera goer. The Boston
journal says: @Davy Jones is comic
opera that leaves pleasant Impressions.
You are sure to hum its melodious
music.n The Boston Transcript says:
~ more catchy opera never was writ
ten." The opening sale of seats at Stock
BRIDGES Saturday was large. Get seats
early.

DECLINE AT CHICAGO
Bullish Feeling Checked After
Some Early Buying Orders.
Corn Held Steady and Oats We're Firmer
Provisions Underwent a Raid
and Closed Lower.

CHICAGO, May 5.-The report to-day OF
over 100000 bushels as the amount of
clearances of wheat for the week. from the
Atlantic and Pacific coasts, checked the
bullish feeling. The first price at the open
ing for July wheat was lsc below the clos
ing on Friday, but some of the recent
heavy short sellers had orders in the pit
TO buy at the opening, and, owing to their
purchases, there was a lively rally TO $3.50
601sc. AS soon as their buying stopped the
original bearish influence under which the
market opened reasserted itself and the
price quickly fell off to $3.50. The favor
able crop reports encouraged more short
selling and the price fell of to $3.50. There
was only one sale at the latter figure and
the price varied but little until the close,
which was at Coo, CSC below Fridays clos
ing.
:. The receipts of corn were only 1S9 cars
and the shipments $4,000 blu. The liberal
shipments gave the market a good send-of,
July starting 1sc higher than IL closed yes
terday. The eakne which developed in
wheat took the stiffening out Of corn and
the price sagged Oft gently from 1850 to
39Ac, recovered again to 1880, and remained
between 39Ac and 1880 during the remain
der of the session. Offerings of May corn
were rather more plentiful than for a few
days past, although no large lots came on
the market, the offerings being in 5000 and
10000 bu lots. Bartlett-Frazier were moder-
ate sellers of July. The close was the same
as that of Friday.
Some of the strength in yesterdays oats
market was visible to-day. but not in so
great a proportion. Holders still keep their
stuff back, and while shorts were Just as
anxious to buy they were not willing to
pay the prices asked. The market closed
near the high price of the day, or at an
advance of 9sc over yesterdays last quo
tation.
The provision market was subjected to
a slight raid which knocked 17hc off the
opening price of July pork, csc from July
lard and .O21zc from July ribs. Pork recov-
cred 71ac from the lowest through a little
profit taking by shorts, and lard touched
a point .021zc below the closing. Ribs closed
at the lowest figure. Estimated receipts for
Monday are: Wheat, 65 cars; corn, 156 cars;
oats, 1913 cars; hogs, 5000.
Freights were steady, with a moderate
demand at 112c for wheat and 1850 for corn
and oats to Buffalo. Leading futures ranged
as follows.

LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
Trade of the Week Satisfactory, with
Few Changes in Values.

The trade Of the week, although hardly
equal in volume to that of the week ending
April rs, was fairly satisfactory for the
first week of May. Dry-goods houses had a
good trade. and the milliners did more than
in the week ending April %. Grocers were
quite busy; still, there is room for i'm
provement. In most lines the retail mer-
chants are pursuing the hand-to-mouth
policy of buying goods. Travelling sales
men on Friday and Saturday brought In
good orders. and speak more encouragingly
Of the outlook. Prices on most articles
through the week were steady. Sugars
were of, but recovered the decline In a day
or two after. Other staple. groceries are
firm. The seed market Is more active and
prices easier but unchanged. Provisions
ruled steady through the week with a fair
demand. Druggists report trade improving;
paints and oils in better demand. Hard
ware men speak Of trade as being better.
The flour market Is active at unchanged
prices. On Commission row prices were I'M
settled most of the time. There was such
a difference in quality Of articles offered
In the way OF new tomatoes, strawberries,
cucumbers. new potatoes and like vege-
tables that 1t was difficult to make quota
lions. and from this on lower prices will
doubtless rule, unless for very choice stock.
A good orange is difficult to find. Lemons
pineapples. Poultry and eggs are both weak
with the close of the week. The market Is
Hooded with an inferior quality or butter.
The local grain market was rather tame
yesterday. Bidding lacke spirit. Still there
is a fair demand for corn, and oats are In
good request at the following range of
prices on track:

Homemade Ice Chest.

hAAtt al n -
TIL convenience Of a refrigerator or ice
chest is too apparent to need mention, but
many who would like TO avail themselves
OF the advantage OF thus preserving and
making palatable the food that comes 10
their tables in the hot weather are deferred
by the exp~ensiveness OF the factory-made
articles. A very satisfactory substitute can
be made at home by procuring a large dry
goods box and fitting a smaller box inside
space of four or five inches all around il,
which is TO be filled with sawdust or other
similar material. The inner box should pro-
ject an inch above the outer one. A box
cover should be made TO tit the outer box,
so that there may be a nonconducting space
above the inner box as Well as around II.
On the bottom Of this cover let inch strips
be. nailed along the sides and ends 50 thai
they may fit closely around the upper edge
of the inner box when the whole chest is
closed, which will make the ice chamber
air tight. An iron pan, with a bit OF pipe
leading down through the bottom can be
made to place the ice In, or, III the chest is
to be placed in a shed, a hole may be bored
through the bottom, and the ice set directly
on the boards. 1t will spend" better if
wrapped in burlap or some closer cloth.
Movable Stat shelves are fitted into the
other end of the inner chamber 20 place
food upon. The inside should be shelack-i
before using, or the pine wood may give
a flavor to some articles OF food. particu-
larly butter. II must be kept clean and oc-
casionally sun-dried TO kill the mold.
