the revenue which would command the
approval OF all parties. but unfortun-
ately he is neither but only a politi-

bonds were sold to make up the de-

bond sales began in January, 1894.

DRAGGED 200 FEET.
How PIucky Driver stopped a Runa-
way.

Yesterday noon, large, wiry, sorre
horse, drawing a sleigh containing a
single man, turned down Preble street
from Congress at brisk trot. The
sleigh tipped over, the man was thrown
out, the horse started down the steep
incline at gallop. But he didn't gal
lop very far. The man, though dragged
fat on his breast on the snow, held on to
the reins like grim death. The sleigh
dragged on it's side beside him. The
cushions and the robes fell out ON top
of him. Yet still he held on.
When down about opposite J.J. Frye's
pillow mandatory, the horse was dragged
down to standstill by the weight of
the load it was dragging, for he was a
good-sized man.
Every body crowded around the man
with words of praise for his pluckiness.
1t was rather a wild looking horse, and
to prevent its galloping down Preble
street with an overturned sleigh, was
good thing to do. even if it required
the making toboggan of oneself and
the sacrifice of all tina buttons on ones
coat.
The man gave his name as Casper l..

A Hard Case.

Yesterday Marshal Tricky had a very
sad case brought to his attention.
Last spring, man well connected in
this city, was employed by livery stab
lie proprietor as driver, ana proved an
excellent one. The Marshal says he was
attentive to his duties, neat, and we'll
liked. A short time ago the mans wife
came down to Portland from Boston.
The Marshal says she is an habitual
drunkard, and when the couple lived in
Boston her Influence over him was sach
that he was continually getting intoxi.
Gated and neglecting his work. The
couple have three children and they were
neglected, and finally taken into an in
stitution where they were well clothed
and well treated. Since the wife's return
the children have been brought here
from Boston, and the husband has lost
his place and gone back to his old hab-
its. The Marshal is going to try and
have the woman taken care of. and then
he thinks the father and children will
get along all right.

The reception last evening rendered by
the Second Parish to their pastor, Rev
Mr. Hack and to Mrs. Hack, was a brill
liant affair The large church parlors
were prettily festooned with bunting,
and decorated with Christmas green,
large palms and other potted plants, and
many fragrant flowers. In addition ITO
the light from the chandeliers, large
silver candelabra, bearing wax candles,
were placed here and there about the
spacious rooms, adding much to the
briIliancy of the occasion. Mr.. and
Mrs. Hack were assisted in receiving by
the officers of the church and parish.
The refreshments tables were presided
over by young ladies of the society. who
relieved each other in their agreeable
duties throughout the evening. The
young men of the parish officiated as
ushers. There was very large attend
ance during the hours of the reception
which lasted from to 10 O'Clock.
Among those who made the acquaint-
ance of Mr. and Mrs. Hack were many OF

1t Means Less Expense and More

1t is Just What All Persons are
~
Looking For.
Probably the Greatest Discovery Of
the Age.

The greatest and mosts wonderful en-
terprises in the world are those which
have the strongest and most powerful
intelIeots back of them which results
from yeara of study by thinking men
and which are built upon foundation
SO sure and firm that no possible emer-
gency can weaken them. This is exactly
the case with the subject in question.
1t has astonished the most learned men
everywhere, and the greatest intellects OF
the age acknowledge its genuine worth
and marvellous superiority. And what
makes it still more valuable is the fact
that it is something large portion OF the
people need
No other discovery in the world has
so much saving, and has so completely
won the hearts of the people as llr,
Greene's Neryura blood and nerve remedy.
It's irresistible power to cure @has aston
ished' the greatest physicians in the
world. One great reason why this won
derful remedy has taken the highest
place among all the medicines OF the
and have more confidence in it than any
other, is the fact that DR.. Greene, him
self, personally assumes the entire re-
sponsibility of his medicine.
There are many remedies of uncertain
value with no one to vouch for them,
no physician standing behind them with
whom persons can consult in case the
medicines fail to produce the desired
effect But here is one which is the dis
covery and prescription of the best
known and most successful specialist in
curing nervous and chronic diseases, DR..
Greene, of "a Temple Place, Boston,
Mass, who is in active practice, and
stands ready at all times Ito answer any
and ali questions regarding his remedy
and Rits effects. And right here is an
other great advantage. DIR. Greene.actual-
ly requests all persons taking his won
derful remedy to.consider themselves un-
der his Direct personal care and treat
ment, and to consult him, free of change,
personally or by letter. He will carefully
answer all letters, giving his advice and
allsnecessary information.
The great and world wide reputation OF
Dr. Greene is guarantee that his medi
cine will cure, and the fact that he can
be consulted by ganyone, at any time
free of charge, gives absolute assurance
OF the sure and beneficial action of his
valuable remedy. No other medicine in
the world offers SO many or such strong
Inducements, and no other can give such
certain and powerful assurance Of curing
disease. These facts give everybody the
utmost confidence in DR.. Greene's Ner-
vura blood and nerve remedy. Use it.
1t will make you strong and well.

CAPE ELIZABETH.
An Official Statement of the Reason for
the Release of Rev. I. G.. Ross, as
Pastor of the Peoples MI. e. Church.

Tuesday evening, January 1, at South
Portland, Rev I. G. Ross called meeting
of his official board and requested, as
personal favor, that they would grant
him an immediate release from his
duties as pastor of the Methodist Episco-
pal church. He stated clearly and fully
his reasons for this action. He said
that for some months past he had been
considering the advisability of turning
aside for time from the regular pastor
ate with a view to devoting his energies
chiefly to some lucrative business in
order to relieve himself from heavy
financial obligations that for several
years he had been carrying, the result
largely of misplaced confidence il those
with whom he had business relations,
which obligations his incoms in the
pastorate was not enabling him to
liquidate.
A proposal recently made by Bishop
Goodsell of San Francisco, asking him
if he would accept an appointment in
that city at a salary of about $500,
failed on account of the fact that new
and unlocked for complications in re-
gard to the church property rendered
the appointment not advisable at pres
emit.
A direct offer, however, of a different
nature b ad come to hand from Hunt q
Eaton, agents of the Methodist Book
Concern at New YORK, asking him to
accept fine salaried position in Phila-
delphia as their representative in hand
ling the rev census edition of the
Peoples Cyclopeadia. This offer, Mr.
Ross expressed to the official board his
desire to accept. sHe said he had received
assurances both from Presiding Elder
bishop of the Maine Conference that his
contemplated action would be approved
by them. He expressed his regret that
circumstances over which he had no con-
troll made it seem clearly his duty to
thus ask for a srelease. Although the
mem bers of the Official board regret that
there should be any occasion for such
action on their part, and will feel the
loss to them and to the community OF
MIR. Ross's retirement from service in
South Portland, yet, in accordance with
his desire in the matter, they voted to
grant his request, and MIR. Ross was re-
leased. Edwin r. Heck bert, Albert e.
Thurreill and Charlie A. Tilton were APP
pointed committee to draft appropriate
resolutions.
AT the adjourned board meeting next
Monday evening, it is probable that
some action will be taken in relation to
securing a permanent supply for the pull
pitt until the meeting of the next confer
