A SERIOUS FIRE.
Capt. Marshal Spear, Formerly of Cape
Elizabeth, Suffers Heavy Loss.


News has been received here of the Sc
rious loss by fire suffered by Captain
Marshal Spear, long resident of South
Portland, at his new house near Wash
ington, DC.
Captain Spears present residence is To-
Gated in retired country place. EHe
possessed large dwelling and outbuild-
ings, with much stock and farm uten-
sils. A bout six or seven weeks ago one
of his neigh bors lost large barn by
fire. A week or ten days after anoth-
.er neighbor was sufferer form the same
cause. Last week, early in the morning.
Captain Spear heard sound as of hors-
es galloping fast over the country road.
AS the place is so retired he thought it
odd, and went out to investigate. He
found flames bursting from his large
barn. His neigbors lived SO far away
that even if they could have been of SER
vice if on hand, they were unable to as
sist, and the barn was destroyed with all
the hay, farm tools, nine horses and fif-
teen COWS, the property in all valued at
$40, 600, on which he had but $1,000 in
surance. Captain Spear will have the
sympathy Of his many .old friends in
this vicinity. The fires were all of them
unquestionably of incendiary origin.

TRAMPS IN THE WOODS.
Two Camps Discovered in the Vicinity of
This City.

A Portland man, who was at Cape
Elizabeth Sunday, had an odd expert
ence. He left the main road and wan
dered into the woods for nearly mile.
and to his surprise reached camp OF
tramps. There were eight of the wan
derers. and according to the Portland
man they were hard looking lot and
were apparently fast getting drunk. They
called after him, but as he had consid-
cradle money on his person he deemed
it wise to get out of the way.
A man who lives a few miles out
of town, on the Falmouth road, saw a
smoke in some woods about half mile
from his house Sunday. Fearing for
est fire, he went in the direction of the
line of smoke, and at last found little
camp and five tramps, all young and
bright looking fellows, watching the
boiling of the dinner. They had built
their camp against stone wall, and had
a fireplace of stones and clay, into which
they had fitted section of stove pipe.
They assured him that they would be
sure and not start forest fire or dis
turh his property in any way, and they
were allowed to remain. They begged
a paper he had with him, and as they
were bright, strong young fellows, he
limited that they might get work if they
wanted it, which drew from the leader
of the party complaining We've treat
ed you white, now what do you want to
talk that way for?n

He Was a Mere skeleton.

He had no appetite, and it was hard work to
make him eat enough to keep him alive. A few
weeks later we had his hip lanced, and follow
ing this five other eruptions broke out, making
eight running sores in all. We did all we could
for him, but he grew weaker every day, al
though we had three of the best physicians.
AS last resort we were prevailed upon
by relatives who had taken Hoods Sarsa-
parilla with beneficial results to give the medi-
cine trial. We got one bottle about the first
of March, 1892, and he had taken the medicine
only few days when his appeu began to
