BAD WEATHER FOR FOUNDERS.
The Reason why They Are So Scarce il,
the Weirs this Week

This is bad weather for the men who
catch founders with weirs on the flats
above Portland bridge. The founder
is very knowing fish, or has a wonder
full instinct, just as you please. The
weirs are so placed that AS the founders
come down over the flats with the out
going tide, they are caught. Now a
founder will never go against the tide
current, neither will it remain in shall
low pools and channels of the bare flats
when the sun shines, for warm shall
low water is uncomfortable and even
disastrous. But during such weather as
that of this week many of the founders
remain on the flats; besides it is now a
time of neap tides. The water doesn't
run out very far of course, nor with SO
much force, and so many of the founders
do not go out with it and therefore do
not get caught in the weirs.
The difference between the catch of
founders at present and when the sun
is shining and the tide is FULL is the
difference between one and two, or five
and ten.
Most of the founders caught here go
to New York. That is the only available
market for them. People do note at them
here. and prefer cunners as pan fish,
though the founder is as much better
than Gunner as salmon is better than
cod,

DEERING.
Sudden Death of MIR. Dana M. Smith

Yesterday afternoon, Mr.. Dana M.
Smlth,a young man of 81 years died very
suddenly and under somewhat unusual
circumstances, on Deering electric car
Mr.. Smith has not been we'll for several
months. but was able to come into the
city yesterday. Returning home he took
the car which leaves the head of Preble
street at quarter to 2 o'clock. Moth
ing unusual was noticed about him until
Fessenden street was reached There
were then but two other passengers on
the car. These noticed sudden flush
on Mr.. Smiths face, and he acted as if
asleep.
From this condition he did not
awaken. When the car arrived at Wood
fords Corner, he was taken into Chap
man and Wyman's store. A slight move
ment about this time indicated that a
little life was left, but it is believed that
death ensued Immediately. The doctors
at Woodfords were away, and DR.. Adams
was sumomned from the city, but the
patient was dead before he arrived. Heart
disease is thought to be the cause of his
death. Mr.Simth formerly lived in Hol-
lis, Me-, and came TO Woodfords about
five years ago. He was carpenter, and
had built several houses, including the
one in which he lived on Saunders
street.
The deceased leaves wife and a
brother. He was a member of the
Knights of Pythias.

The nIilliken-Morey Decision.

A somewhat erroneous impression was
given of the effect ofathe decision of the
law court in the Milliken-Morey case in
the article in the PRESS Wednesday
moning Judge Foster had found as
matter of fact that Morey & Co. had ac-
cepted no preference in violation of the
insolvent law, and that they were en-
titled to retain such property as they
had received from the Dennison Com
pany. The law court found on the con-
tray that they had accepted preference
of S11, 1856 so, and that they must refund
that amount less dividend of Is per
cent to which they would been entitled if
they proved their whole debt, and thpt
their whole debt might be increased by
the amount of their preference, making
their proof stand s146,170.l

II Is true, dear friends.

That one we loved so dearly
Has passed beyond the skies.
God, in His goodness and mercy.
With His fingers of mighty love.
4 lower from earth has plucked.
And planted in the garden above.
A loved one from us has been taken:
There IS left a vacant chair,
A link in the circle is broken,
To be clasped in the home over there.
A happy home has been entered,
Hearts been left bleeding and torn;
Yet. let this be an incentive
TO lead us to the Lamb that Is shorn.
He is gone. His body sleepeth
Beneath the green, green sod;
But his soul has taken its flight
To live forever with its God
To the wife. so fond and loving.
And children. so sweet and bright
We all, with hearts overlooking
With sympathy and love. unite.

Let us all ever be faithful,
And trust in the Providence OF God,
And yield our lives entirely.
And bend to the clustering rod.
Prove faithful to the trust that Is left US.
The trumpet call obey,
In the dawning of the morning we'n rise
In realms Of endless day.
Fly. oh. carrier dovel on downy pinions
To that land OF bliss above;
Wing thy way to earth again.

And dwell In those mansions SO bright.
And forever and forever.

While the years OF eternity shall roll.

When the Natalie left Savannah 1t was
understood that her destination was

Of her departure until her arrival at Mas
sau. y. T.. on February 4th, nothing was
heard OF her, and 1t was supposed that
she had been lost or captured, and 1t was
even alleged that she had been secretly
sold. with her cargo. to Hlppolyte. Her
captain reported that he had put IN at
Nassau under stress of weather, but Gene

he had BEEN betrayed. and refused to go
on board the yacht, fearing that the cap

The Natalie was suspected or belng en-

as discovered to Justify seizure, and she
was not held. She sailed February sth'
and the same night ran aground on Egg
Island reef from which she was helped
off by local wreckers.
A few days later the Natalie was dis
covered by a passing vessel anchored on
Fortune Island about 400 miles 10 the
North OF Haiti, and a Haitien gunboat
was also anchored IN close proximity TO
her. Subsequently it was learned that
President Hlppolyte had expressed his de-
termination that the Natalie's cargo or
arms and ammunition should not fall INTO
the hands of his enemies, and had gwen
orders that in case she should attempt 70
leave Fortune Island, she must be seized
Immediately by the Haitien gnnDOat
which had been on the lookout for her
some time before her arrival at Fort For

The Natalie was a very small boat
of only twenty-ninc tons. 1t is SAID that
she was commanded by Antoine Salini.
