publican victory indeed. Governor
Cleaves is triumphantly elected, carrying
cities and towns where hitherto there
had barely been only faint hope OF beat
ing the Democrats. Portland has truly
shown its appreciation OF ex-Speaker
Reed and Governor Cleaves, as have all
the towns OF the vicinity. In this city
every one of the seven wards, except one,
return mai critics for both Governor
Cleaves and Congressman Reed. This is
decidedly unprecedented. That former
Democratic strong hold, Cape Elizabeth, Is
carried by both Governor Cleaves and Mr..
Reed, as is Scarboro. The whole Republi-
can ticket in Cumberland County Is
elected. MIR. Plummer, the Republican
candidate for sheriff, is elected by very
comfortable majority. This is the only
office which the Democrats exerted any
effort to secure.
Last evening the Republicans OF the
city assmb bled at city hall and listened to
the glad returns read by Chairman Josiah
ii. Drummond, Jr. The tall was well
filled when at 10 o'clock Congressman
Reed and Governor Cieaves entered. They
received a magnificent ovation, and
spoke few words. Mr.. Reed did not as
cend the platform, explaining that he de-
sired to speak ON the,level OF the people.
"There doesn't seem TO be any Demo-
cratic party" he began, sand shall miss
them. QLaugh.er.) / suppose that the
Governor cannot help being pleased by
receiving the old time msiorities.
This carries US back to the days OF the
good old Hannibal Hamlin, the
steadfast Grant and the brilliant
Blaine. am quite sure that this
great victory will extend over the country
and, il the country ratifies our decision at
the end of two years. it will appreciate the
virtue of the Rel ubl Ican party"
Governor Clea>ej also spoke. "It's
rather rainy tonight" he remarked, "but
you can stand almost anything except the
reign of the Democratic party. (Laughtcr)
| The result in Maine is significant. We
are all grateful for the great Republican

neturns from over 100 cities and towns
indicate that the state has reelected
Governor Cleaves (Rep.) over Charles Il.

81, 900, the largest In tho history Of the
party. The Republicans have carried
every county I'm the state, and It Is esti-
mated that the legislature will have a
working Republican majority of l25, which

Nelson Dingley, Seth l.. Milliken and
G. A. Boutelle are also reelected to con

DETROIT, Sept. i1.-A meeting OF the
representatives of the German and
Bohemian Lodges, X. of r., of Detroit,
was held last night to take action on the
recent decision OF the Grand Lodge,
requiring that the English language
be used i'm rituals of the
order. The sentiment was strongly fav-
orable TO withdrawal from the order, and
the chairman was directed TO appoint
committees from each of the three Ger
man lodges and the Bohemian Lodge to
recommend action at future meeting.
Many of those present are saloon keep
ers and bar tenders and the discrimina-
tion against persons OF their class by the
Grand Lodge was also very strongly de-
nounccd.

five DROWNED.
A Steamer Cuts Down a Three Masttf
Schooner in the Fog.

Bu Inc AZ OciHcn fTcN
NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE steamer Por-
{ a, from Halifax, has arrived at City Is
land and reports that she ran into and
sank the three masted schooner Dora
NJ. French yesterday afternoon about
four miles from Cuttyhunk light. Four
out of the five men comprising the
schooner's crew were drowned.
The accident occurred a few minutes
after 10 O'Clock, in q dense fog. The
steamer was running at full speed, blow
ing her whistle at short intervals. She
struck the sailing vessel just forward of
the foremast and cut her IN two.
The latter sank in less than two minutes,
going down head foremost and leaving
her broken foremast and sails across the
Portals bow. One man could be seen
swimming amidst the wreckage and two
others were visible just below striving to
reach the surface; but they were caught
in the vortex and borne down.
A boat was quickly lowered by the
steamer and one man picked up. His
name is Jeremiah Murphy and resides in
New York. He was mate of the lost
vessel and gives the following account OF
the disaster:

40 feet OF rail lost. A hole was stove in
the starboard bow Just below the water

No citizen of this village is better
known or more highly respected than
| Theodore j. Wheeler, who has lived
here for nearly half century. Five
years ago he was stricken with paraly-
sis and was in its worst form. The
physicians said that he would surely
die. But Mr.. Wheeler did not die,
and it is 70 tell the readers Of the
Pdll0dinn, about his almost miraculous
recovery That reporter called upon
him.
Despite his siXty-fve years of age,
and the intense mental and bodily af
fiictiOns, he has been obliged to endure
for nearly five years. Mr.. Wheeler is a
| fine looking man. He answered the
reporters ring at the door bell in per-
son, and invited him into his coy sit
ting room, where he told the follow
ing story:

1888, that / was stricken down. at

an infant when creeping, but unable

slightest feeling in the lower part of
my body and a needle thrust into my
afflicted parts would not produce the
slightest pain. This went on until
eight months ago. One day read in
the Palladium Of Canadian gentle
man who suffered from paralysis and
who had found relief in DR.. Williams

An Artists Studio.

Of late we are growing to know
more about the inner lives OF those
who amuse and instruct the public.
The hand of inquiry has thrust aside
the veil between, and the public, in
spirit, visits the den of the novelist,
the eyrie of the poet, the boudoir OF
the belle, and the studio OF the artist.
AS an exponent of art, the artist loves
luxury and color, and his studio
reflects his tastes. Luxury is found,
also, on the finely equipped passenger
trains of the st. Paul 81 Duluth rail-
road, or Duluth Short Line, which is
the popular route between St. Paul,
Minneapolis, Duluth, West Superior,
Saltwater, Taylor'S Falls, and other
points of Importance. These trains
are run at hours convenient to the bus
mess man and tourist, on fast time,
smoothly, between the finest of ter
minals, and single trip makes the
casual passenger firm and lasting pa

ton cheerfully furnished by ticket

is HE THE MAN?

Chief Yates received letter Tuesday
from the police officials of Winona, en-
closing a piece of cloth, and saying
that the sample was cut from some
trowsers which a peddler was selling
on the streets, and asking whether it
corresponded with the goods stolen
from Kruse Bros store. Kruse Bros.
Immediately recognized the cloth and
said without hesitation that it was
the same as that stolen. A warrant
was issued for the mans arrest, and
Chief Yates left for Winona this after
noon to serve it.
Nothing was said in the letter about
any other goods being offered for sale
by the man. The latter is being held
by the Winona authorities, and future
developments will decide whether he
is the man wanted for the robbery, or
not.
