was held in Presque Isle last week was
in every way success, although the

last Saturday, as they were in no condi-

from the encampment where they obtained
little or no practice. A general shaking
up of the eleven has been made and Fair

OUR ELECTRICS STARTED.
The First Cars Passed Over the City
Line Last Night.

They Were Greeted With Cheers by the
ElMen-Women Waved Their Handker-
chiefs-EverythingM ooved Smoothly.
Portland, as far as the--city proper is
concerned, has been rather behind her
sister cities in the adoption of the electric
cars. But Portland for a long time has
been connected with the suburban cities
of Deering and Westbrook with as COM
plete and convenient line of electric
cars as any city in the country can boast
g When, last spring, work was begun
on the Portland line, it was hoped to
have the cars running by the middle OF
July, but the company was determlnd
to have the work of laying the rails,
placing the poles and the construction OF
the power house as thorough and sub
stant1al as possible, SO that 1t was noo
until last evening that the first cars were
run, and then only as an experiment. TO
sec that every thingSwas in good working
order
At 90 D. M, car No 105. with Joseph
6. Pelton as motorman and George III.
Todd as conductor, and carrying Hon.
Chas. f. Libby, one of the directors,
General Manag er Newman, Councilman
Nickerson and a representative OF the
PRESS, and several other gentlemen,
besides a large delegation OF Young
America, left the car house on Munjoy
hill and ran down Congress street near
" to Exchange street, and then returned
to the car house, passing over the Con-
eress street extension. The motive power
was furnished by the small engine, the
large one not being needed.
1t was matter of current remark how
smoothly and easily everything worked
The cars went around the curves without
jar and assembled the steep grades, es-
pecially Munjoy hill with a good rate OF
speed. All along the line knots of men
gathered and cheered, while the women
waived handkerchiefs and the boys in the
car responded with all the.yells and.calls
for which boys are noted.
After the car had reached the car house,
the big eight wheeled Mogul, known as
10S, with Philbrook and Huntoon as
motorman and conductor, was taken out
and ran down to the Union station, FOL
lowed by car 105. The Spring and Middle
street tracks were also passed over, and
everything appeared satisfactory. One
agreeable feature of the cars was their
brilliant lighting in place Of the smoky
kerosene lamps. The full power of the
engine was not employed in running the
cars last night. because there were only
two cars in use, Eand the engine would
have raced if full power was employed.
This afternoon, it is hoped, Mr.. New
man says, to begin to run the cars regu-
larry.

ROW IN THE ENoeAvoR SOCIETY.
0ohn @. Wooley Says the Organization Il
Under "Boss Rule"

Sohn .. Wooley Says the Organization II
Under "Bo.s Rule"
BOSTON, Nov. H.-John G. Wooley, who
has controversy with President Francis
r. Clarke, Of the Christian Endeavor, has
written letter to the society at large in
which he declares the societies to be under
"boss rule" and declares that the "cor-
poration policy" adopted by the
management leaves nothing to the judg-
ment OF tss members. WoOley says: 1.-The
president Of the corporation that controls
the United Societies Of Christian Endeavor
Is also chief owner Of the golden rule
There are some 5000, 600 Of us 'privates. >
We have no president, no trustees, no sec.
retary nor treasurer, no newspaper, no
voice, and SO 1 am forced to address you
individually by the mail or submit to the
injustice and tyranny Of boss rule, which
refuse to do for your sake no less than
my own"
WoOley then refers to speeches he has
made criticising the management and to
replies thereto, as well as to an offer he
made to drop the matter, which offer re-
ceived no reply. He says that Messrs.
Baer. Shaw and probably Clarke are party
Prohibi:ionists. He thinks it would be
better if the 100000 "privates" had ..less
chaperoning and more responsibility"
In his conclusion he says: Nothing
could induce me to lead a division Of our
society. We ought to be loyal and respect
ful to our leaders, but leaders are very
prone to forget that they owe us loyalty
also. And president of our society whose
attitude toward the saloon is Indefinite in
its ordinary details is deficient in loyalty
