PORTLAND PHILATEllsTS.
Evening-Some Valuable Collections
Officers and Members,

Last evening the Portland PhiIatelic
weekly meetings at the Falmouth hotel.
The business OF the meeting was chiefly
the examination of various stamps sent
from dealers for inspection. Those who
suppose that stamp collecting is one Of
the pleasures of the very young, would
be surprised to call upon the Portland
Philatelic Association, most of whose
mem bers are. well know business and
pro fessional men. The officers are:
President, G. E. Raymond; treasurer,
Charles R. Lewis; secretary, Sterling 7.
Dow. Among the members are. Messrs.
W.N. Howe, W. l.. Blake, WIN. Taylor, A.
B. Stephenson, E. II. FORK, &c. Payson,
f. o. Conant, DR.. j. A. Spaulding, DR..
Chas. E. Banks, S. H. McAlpine, George
W. Merrill, Clarence ". Small, c. Fl. Nea-
ly.
Some of these gentlemen have costly
and extensive collections. Mr.. Commits
mum bers upwards of twelve thousand
specimens. Messrs. Raymond and Lewis
also have large collections.
The collecting of stamps is really not
child's play but business Most of the
rarer stamps. have value, which increas-
es with time. So the judioious buyer is
really making all in vestment all the
time, which will pay him good per
centage in the end. Most Of the Portland
gentlemen began collecting stamps when
they were boys and have kept it up for
the love of it. Butrthe financial feature
enables them to 60 inte.it more exteu-
sively than they otherwise swould feel
able to. Probably the largest collection
in stamps in Maine is owned by Mr.. E.
W.Ayer, the we'll known umberman and
salmon angler of Bangor. His collection
is reported to be worth $4,000.
Some of the rarer stamps bring aston
ishing figures. Two Mauritius stamps,
a one and two penny, brought about
$500 apiece not long ago. Last evening
the PRESS was shown a Nova Scotia
shilling stamp of 1851 that is valued at
$S5.
A few days ago New York dealer
who called on the Portland philatelists
had with him a lot of stamps worth S13,-
900.
The Portland Philatelists meet every
other Wednesday evening and enjoy a
pleasant social time, looking over the
latest in the world of stamps.

GOOD FRIDAY.
The Three Hours Devotion in St. Luke's
Cathedral.

A day which all the world calls Good"
must have some great and especial claim
upon the. attention of Christian man. From
the earliest times the day has been observed
withsgreat eclemnity as the anniversary
of the crucitxion of Jesus Christ. our Saw
Jour.
In the busy competition of these days the
sacredness of Good Friday has been to a
very great extent lost sight of. The traffic
and merchandise of the world have been
allowed to obscure the higher thoughts
which centre round the crucifed Lord. No
day in the year has such great claims upon
the world. unless there been good Friday
of sorrow and humiliation and death. There
could have been no Easter day of joy and
gladness and resurrection. 1t was thong b
the grave and gate of death that the saw
Jour of men passed to His resurrection, and
men who wonld rejoice with the Risen
Christ, 10 be consistent, must be with Him
in the hours of His cruciGxtion.
1t is with a view of deepening { the spirit
nal life and increasing devotion .for the
Lord, and of preparing for a fitting celebra-
tinn of the Easter festival, that a spec al
.vo5ional service in addition to that regu-
larly appoin led. will b. held in in St. Lux IS
Cathedral tomorrow from II O'Clock nom.
to p. no., or during the hours of the Saw
iour's agony.
This services will consist of familiar
hymns and prayers; with brief address on
each of the seven sayings from the cross.
Thefscathedera1 will be open to all who
may,wish to attend and printed order OF
service will be provided.
A cordial invitation is extended 10 the
public generally and during the singing of
the hymn any one can enter or leave the
church so that the service need be weaIi-
some to none. Many business man might
find 1T spiritually helpful to spend an hour
at noon at such service on Good Friday.
and it is hope that many will avail them
selves of this opportunity. We have lately
seen a successful effort to close many of
the stores during certain hours lin week
day i'll order to give men time to attend
several meetings in this city. May we not
hope that Christian men may be equally
ready to give some portion of their business
hours for quiet devotional service on the
most solemn. and holy day of all the year.

Following upon improved demand, be-

bricks have advanced from one to two

that bricks made near salt water have a
tendency to show the salt afterWard,
thus making on the walls, as most have
noticed, appearance as if incrust ed with
patches of salt. An experienced manu-
facturer says this is not the case, but
that it is caused by saltpetre, which left

I O You
The Most important

Matter demanding attention at this
season is the condition Of your blood.
Your health depends upon it, for as
the quality and quantity of the blood
vary, you are better or worse.
The blood conveys all the elements
which go to make up the organs, nerves
and tissues of the body, and carries
away all dissolved, useless material.
Every bone, muscle nerve and tissue,
lives upon what the blood feeds to it.
The whole world knows that Hoods

for making pure blood.

cures even when other preparations
fail. When you buy your spring medi-

MRS. LANGTRY SNUBBED.

.s4. Her.
NEW YORK, Jan. 29.-Mrs. Langtry
while playing around New York is
stopping at the Victoria hotel She has
been acting in Brooklyn during the
last week. Despite the strike, she did
good business. The women in Brook
lyn went to see her because they heard
she had beautiful lot of new gowns.
The last time Mrs. Langtry visited
this country she travelled in a palace
car. Now the ordinary coach is good
enough for her.
1t is noticeable that despite the fact
that Mr.. and Mrs. Kendall are stop
ping at the Victoria they have not yet
even so much as deigned to notice the
presence of their fair countryWoman.
When Mrs. Kendall meets MRS. Gangtry
on the elevator or in the dining room
she simply passes her with frozen
smile on her face. Mr.. Kendall does
not even smile. Some of the guests in
the hotel say he is afraid to. Mrs.
Langtry does not seem to be worried
much about these trivial details. She
returns to the hotel every night in
carriage, accompanied by her leading
man and her French poodle. She met
for the first time, Friday, the dis
tinguiShed, Cuban millionaire, Antonio
Terry, who followed Sybil Sanderson
to this country from Paris. Miss San
derson says she will marry Mr.. Terry
as soon as he can get divorce. Mr..
Terry seemed quite pleased to meet
the Lily He invited her to go out for
supper. The invitation included her
leading man and the other English ac-
tors who are playing her cast. The
! only one who was not to go was the
French poodle. Mrs. Langtry had her
pet sent up stairs on the elevator and

BROOKLYN, Jan 29.-Odd Fellows
opened since the police raided it last
night. The men who fell victims to the
policemen'S clubs at that time were to-
day nursing their injuries. One Of the
most seriously injured is Master WORK
man Thomas Murray. Mr.. Murray says
he was engaged in writing at his table
when the police entered the hall and
began to club the men and order them
out of the room. The master workman
told the police that If he was in any way
violating the law he was willing to be
placed under arrest, but he protested
against being dubbed. This availed
nothing. however, he said, as he was
dealt three heavy blows over the hea
and shoulders and hustled out Of the
door. Today he is unable to leave his
bed. The interior of the hall presents
the appearance of a desperate battle
ground. After being raided three times
within week. the windows and doors
are shattered and the walls have been
punctured by many bullets. 1t is said
the owner will bring suit against
Capt. Kltzer to recover damages for the
destruction of property.
A meeting of the directors of the
Brooklyn Heights Railroad company
was held this afternoon at the office Of
the company. President Lewis is a
hOld-Over, and it was thought that he
might not be reelected. No action SO
far as the presidentship of the road is
concerned, however, was taken. AT the
conclusion of the meeting, President
Lewis, in reply to a question as to
whether the company will make any
concessions to the demands Of the
strikers. said:
I'VE will concede nothing. We have
all the men we require to operate the
roads, and will tomorrow have All cars
running. We will run them up to mid
night, and on some of the night lines
later than thar, except in such localities
as are peculiarly dangerous. | think it
was great mistake to withdraw the
First brigade before the city had re-
sumed its normal condition. A peace
footing has not yet been established on
firm basis, and the troops should have
been kept Cd duty here until }then."
President Lewis said in regard to the
damage done to the company'S prOp-
erty that the rolling stock alone had
suffered to the extent of 100000. The
damage to wires was also considerable,
and the lines on all the roads will Sc
quire complete overhauling.

his foot slipped. and tue blade was
buried in Green's body just over tile

Green's aSsailant made his escape.
