Charles Pease, pastorsof the Congregation.

from like fate.

ers at the noon hour and were seen to
throw up their hands and to be shouting,
but it was impossible to hear above the
roar of the surf and it was thought they
were in sport.
Mr.. Flanders was the first to go down
and Mr.. Pease, who went to his assist
anec nearly succeeded in say ing him, but
his strength failed and he himself barely
reached the shore before falling with ex-
haustion. His companions worked over
him an hour before he revived and at two
thirty he was comfortable and out of dan
ger.
The body of the Flanders boy was
washed out by the tide and all efforts to
find it have proved in vain. At low tide
thisTafternoon a large party will drag
for his body.
At the time of the accident the tide had
Just turned and considerable undertow
was noticeable, which with the heavy
surf, made the bathing rather dangerous.
This is the first drowning accident at
Ocean Park in the fourteen .eyear of its
history and gloom is cast over the
whole place.

Scene of the Trouble.
'Laddills, Aug. 5-The foreigners at
Spring Valley under the leadership of
Italians and thesnegroes who have concen-
trated their forces at Seatonville, were
both organizing men today and as the
towns are practically under mob law, a
deadly conflict soon is anticipated. The
non-English speaking miners at Spring
Valley to the number of 1900 held mass
meeting at the lumber yard near the
Rock Island depot at ten this morning
and passed a resolution that no neg roes
men or women or inyalids would be al
lowed to remain in side tho city limits
after five tomorrow afternoon. Speeches of
the most inflanatory nature were made
advocating the immediate opening of hos
tilities.

they would continue to work in the

increase. In addition to the negroes re-

four others are missing and it isssthe opin-

order to improve Deering street between
High and State streets by making an
eight foot.law on each side of the street
rovided the abuttors pay one.half the
cost
Mr.. Thompson said the gentlemen who
ask for the passage of the order are
among our heaviest tax payers. They are
entitled to the passage of the order.
Mr.. Randall said that in that short
space Of land the expense to the abuttors
would be only about $25 apiece, and he
thought it not the thing for them to
come and ask the city to pay $500 for it,
especially when it has been shown to-
night how badly Fore street needs paving
that cannot .be afforded. Improving a
public park is one thing, but this1 is
improving private property.
Mr.. Thompson asked if the market
value of the property wouldn't be in
creased and it's tax increased in proper
tion.
Mr. Randall 5said the increase of tax
didn't always follows increase of value of
property.
Messrs. Dam and buddy both spoke
against the order
The order had passage, four yeas and
three nays, Messrs. Dam, buddy and
Randall voting no, but did not get it to
the lower board
PAVING FORE STREET.
Ordered, That the commissioner of
public works pave Fore from Vine to
India street with granite blocks.
Mr.. Thompson said while there was no
question of the need of the work, but
there is no money to do it with, and it's
passage will mean nothing.
Alderman Dam said he thought it was
a very bad place.
This board non -concurred and the lower
board appointed on a committee of con :
ference Messrs. Mcdonald, Nickerson and
Henley, and this board added Aldermen
Dam and Peters. The committee reported
unable to agree, and the report was
accepted So the matter is hung up be-
tween the boards.

$41,0S7. rs

A letter from Architect Tompson said
there were several changes that could be
made, which he mentioned, that would
lessen the cost, but whether they would
be advisable was for the committee to
decide
Mr.. Randall said it would be seen from
the above figures that the cost of the
armory would exceed the appropriations
by some $21, 600 and they decided to come
and ask for further instructions.
Mr.. Little asked if the committee had
any suggestions to offer.
Mr.. Randall said there were so many
bids for the various parts of the work
that the committee adjourned to Thurs
day next without action, but decided to
submit the matter to the City Council as
under the circumstances they had nc
right to go ahead
Mr. Little thought it was understood
that the committee should go ahead as
far as the appropriation and the next city
government take the matter up.
Mr.. Thompson was not surprised He
always supposed the armory would cost
$780, 600 to $50, 600 and he moved to lay the
matter on the table till the September
meeting so as to consider the matter care
fully.
Mr.. Randall said the winter was most
here, and if anything was to be done it
had got to be at once.
Mr.. buddy agreed with Mr.. Thompson
Mr.. Randall thought the $40, 900 would
build the head house or armory.
Mr.. Peters thought it would be we'll to
build the head house.
Mr.. Little-Mr. Thompson withdraw
ing his motion-moved to accept the re-
port which was done, and it was sent
down and concurred in by the lower
b board
Mr.. Little then offered this order:

NEW ENGLAND FAIR.

Mr.. Randall called Alderman Dam to
the chair. He then said he thought the
original appropriation of $4,000 for the
New England fair should not be diverted
from the object. This money will be
needed by them and even more. A fine
City hall, electrical, Maine fish in tanks,
etc., and he thought the society ought
to have all the money. He then intro
duced this order:
Ordered-That the committee on New
England Fair be and are hereby in
structed to expend the appropriation of
$4,000 for the exclusive use of that portion
of the fair which is to be held within the
limits of the city of Portland, either in
advertising, music, premiums, or in any
other way they may deem best, after con-
sultation with the management of the
fair. and no part of the appropriation
shall be diverted to any other purpose
then the benefit of the fair.
Passed and sent down for concurrence
and passed in concurrence by the lower
board.
Previous to the passage of the order
there was some little discussion. Then
Mr.. Little moved that the order be taken
from the table that came from the lower
board at a former meeting, appropriating
$500 for properly receiving invited guests
of the New England fair, and the amount
increased to $1,000
Mr.. buddy asked if this sum was
additional to the $4,000 raised for the fair
If SO, as these guests are guests of the
fair he thought we were getting too
liberal
Mr.. Little said the $1,000 was for the
managers of the New England fair alone
Here are a number of distinguished
people coming and he didn't think the
city should be niggardly in entertaining
them. He believed in liberal appropri-
alton.
The amendment passed. five yeas to
