The Fourth was spent very pleas
antly at Weser in old fashioned pic
mic style. The program heretofore
given in the SIGNAL was carried out
with the exception of Rev. r. B
Wright, who was to have been orator
of the day but could not get here.
T. G. Galloway was added to the list
of speakers The remarks were pat
riotic and we'll rendered, especially
the address of II. A. Lee. Those
gathered at the grounds enjoyed
themselves thoroughly until well
along in the afternoon. AS matter
of course the day had other side adj
juncts-horse racing, foot racing,
anvil shooting, etc, but no fights.
The ball in the evening was largely
attended and the floor was kept hot
until daylight.

With all prudent men life insur-
ance is becoming more popular This
is evidenced from the fact that the
companies engaged in that business
are rapidly growing stronger finan-
cially each year, showing that they
are patronized literally by the public.
In other words, after the test of years
life insurance is more popular now
than it ever was. To person who
contempiates life insurance the prop
osition presented to him is Il very
simple one. Where can obtain the
best results on the money invested?
This proposition was submitted to the
national executive committee of the
Farmers Alliance, and they reported
in favor of 'srhe Mutual Life lnsur-
ance Company of New York. " An
endorsement by a safe conservative
organization like this, after q thor.
and exhaustive research into the ad.
vantages offered by all competing
associations, is one of tie itronges
testimonials that company can pre-
sent to the public. Boise Sentinel

Ninetenths of the unhappy mar
riages are the result of green human
calves, without any yoke on them.
They marry and have children before
they do moustaches; They are father
of twins before they are proprietor of
two pairs of pants and the little girls
they marry are old women before they
are twenty years old. Occasionally
one of these marriages turns out all
right, but it is pure case of luck.
If there was law against young ga
loots marrying before they .:have cut
all their teeth we suppos the little
chaps would evade it in some way
But there ought to be a sentiment a
gainst it.
1t is time enough for these bantams
to think Of finding pullet when they
have raised money enough to buy Il
bundle of lath to build henhouse.
But they see girl who looks cute,
and they are afraid there are not
enough to go around and they begin
to spark real spry, and before they
are aware of the sanctity of the mar
riage relation they are hitcned for
life, and before they own a cook stove
or bedstead they have got to get up
in the night and 90 after the doctor,
50 frightened that they run themselves
out of breath and abuse the doctor
becaue he does not run too. And
when the doctor gets there, there is
not enough linen in the house t6
wrap up the baby. Paris Post

ROBBED WhlrrIER's HOME.
The Poets Study Ransacked, but None of
Its Contents stolen.


Danvers, January 24.-Three hundred
dollars worth of jewelry was stolen by
burglars from the Oak Knoll homestead
at about O'clock this morning, and
some solid silver spoons and Sc in cash
from the house of Rev. Eugene de Nor
mandie.
At Oak Knoll, the home of Mrs. A. j..
Woodman and the Misses johnson and
of the late John G. Whittier, they forced
open back door and went over the
whole house, securing gold watch and
and chain, gold pin, pearl and gold
brooch and other jewelry, and a small
purse containing few rare coins. They
ransacked Whfttier's study and over
turned drawers full Of papers and manu-
scripts, but took nothing there. A
carriage robe was taken from the stable
and spread out in the front hall for the
purpose of wrapping up the plumber, but
the barking of dogs aroused the servants
and frightened the burglars away.
At Mr.. De Normandies, entrance was
obtained througha parlor. window, and
all the rooms were visited. In Mr.. De-
Normandie's sleeping room So were tax
en- from his clothing, and the garments
were thrown under the table. One doz-
en- solid silver spoons were taken and
plated ware ignored.
The burglars ate dish of oranges on
the dining room table. There is no
clew, but the work was undoubtedly by
professionals.

THE ART OF SELF DEFENCE.
A Fine Exhibition at the Portland Ath-
letic Club Rooms.

A large audience of the members of
the Portland Athletic Club and invited
friends witnessed an exposition of the
art of self-defence at the club rooms last
evening of an exceptionally high order
in every respect.
The sparring took place on the floor of
the gymnasium hall, upon which regu-
lar 24-foot ring had been laid out. and
the ropes cushioned with cloth. The
spectators, to the number of several
hundred, occupied the galleries above or
stood about the arena. The great ma
jority of the sparrers were from the Bos-
ton Athletic Club, where such exercises
are quite frequent. Mr.. Emerson Off
ciated as master of ceremonies and Mr..
Merrill as timekeeper.
The first bout was between Professor
Lee, of the Portland Club, and Mr. La
hey, of the Boston Athletic Club, both
men apparently middle weights. 1t was
three rounds of one minute each, and
very lively iopening it proved. The ex-
changes were rapid, the maneuvering for
position fine, and the in-sparring when
they came to close quarters was like
the tattoo of drum. The men
were well matched, but unquestion-
ably Professor Lee had the best of the
bout.
The second set-to was between Har-
kins of Boston and Wiley of Portland,
light weights, 1t was very lively and the
honors about even.
e Bout three was between Nelagan and
Fowler of Boston, the former 1875 and
the latter 1875 pounds weight. There was
a very scientific display, with lightning
like hitting and getting away, and at the
conclusion of the rounds both men were
famed vigorously in their corners.
The fourth illustration was made by
Young and Peters 1876 and 14O pounds re-
spectively, both of Portland. This was
fine set-to, the men being evenly
matched.
The fifth meeting was between the
Boston bantams, Boderhan and Mack, at
ITO pounds apiece. They danced around
each other in the most amusing style,
and afforded mueL entertainment.
The sixth and closing set-to of the eve
ming was very spirited, and the warning
of "break'' by the master of ceremonies
when the men got into close quarters or
a clinch was impending, was frequently
heard. This bout was between Nelagan
and Lane, both of Boston. 1t was give
and take, and hot work, too, and little
tap started the blood from Nelagan's
nose, it being the first blood of the eve
ming. This lively set-to closed the eve
ning's amusement, and received hearty
applause.
A notable feature of the exhibition
was the unvarying good temper, not one
of the contestants losing his head for a
moment. Altogether it was an exhibit
ton of the possibilities of hands and
legs in the way of defence and aggres-
sion that was very creditable to the Port
land Athletic Club.

BOSTON SONS or BowpolN.
They Hear College History Eloquent
Told by Prof. Chapman.

Boston, January 24.-The 26th annual
meeting and banquet of the Bowdoin
Alumni Association of Boston and
vicinity was held at the United States
hotel this evening. About sevent-five
attended, and the gathering was more
than usually enthusiastic. At the bust
ness meeting of the association Edwin
W.Curtis was elected secretary and VIM.
Gardiner Reed, 80, elected assistant
secretary. The other officers where re-
elected. The post prandial exercises were
opened by Prof. Smyth of Andover, who
offered prayer for the continued succe SIS
of Bowdoin. President e. P. Lorine
briefly introduced Prof. Chapman, the
orator of the evening, who spoke OF
Bowdoin's past, and reviewed at length
the history and struggles of the college,
referring to the time when the president
and one professor constituted the faculty.
He continued :-o-s Wealth is coming to
Bowdoin now, but she needs all she can
get. May the time never come when her
alumni shall cease to reverence the
names of such men as Cleveland, Pack
ard. Smith, Uphann and Woods" The
speaker was heartily applauded. VIM. d.
Northend, for over fifty years an alumnus,
exhorted the men OF the college to CON
tinue the good work. The ode was de-
livered by Samuel Cole of "a.

OBITUARY,
MISS Frances e. Flood.


This afternoon the mortal remains of
one VINO tor many years has been con-
slant sufferer will be laid to rest. OF a
delicate, sensitive nature, Miss Flood, In
earlier life, was ever ready with loving
sympathy for everyone in need or
trouble, and shrinking from no labor in
behalf OF others, she often went beyond
her strength in acts of kindness and
charity. .s..
Bedrldden for the last fifteen years she
herself has been most carefully shielded
from trouble and worry, and watched
over at all times with the truest and
most loving and most unselfish devotions.
During these long years of suffering
both hands and brain were often busily
engaged in devising and arranging
tokens of love and mbrance to be
sent to her many friends. Always patient
and accomplishing, intensely loyal to
her friends and true and faithful to God,
she was content to follow cheerf fully in
the path of suffering trodden by her
Divine Lord and Master. In the COM
munion of the Catholic church, in the
confidence of a certain faith, in the
comfort of reasonable, religious and
holy hope, the soul of her we knew and
loved has passed away from the trials of
this world to the blessed joy and peace

The Miners Defiance.

Columbus, O., January 24.-Ten thou
sand miners of Ohio have thrown down
the gage of battle to the operators. They
have refused to accept reduction in
wages. The state executive board of the
United Mine Workers of America, rep
resenting the ten sub-districts, counted
the vote on the proposed reduction and
it was lost by a majority of 500. The Of
t1cials of the union favored the accept
ance of reduction. They argued that
failure on the part of the miners to
pursue this course means months of idle
ness and restitution for the families of
thousands of workingmen in the mining
districts of the state. The miners de-
mand the 10 cents a ton scale up to Nav
LIST. This will close all the Ohio coal
mines. Eight hundred miners are idle
in Kanawha valley, and many are entire
ly without food.
