day, sand he told Of a queer case of "a
wreck. The schooner Hustler had just got

affairs. The captain of the Stanley said
that when he was little to the south OF
Sable Island he saw the house and part of
cabin of a vessel.
The captain then stated that ne was in
formed that close examination of the
floating wreckage was made by the captain
of the Stanley, and in the half demolished
ca bin large clock was found hanging and
still running. 1t was highly probable that
the crew of the unknown craft had been
drowned but short time before or else the
clock would not have been runLiIg. The

WHAT A HORSE CAN DO
And Not Get Killed or Kill ADybody-A
FrightfuI but Not Disastrous Runaway.

Yesterday at about five o'clock, q Mr..
Harmon, who lives on Paris street, left
his horse standing by the sidewalk on
that street. Something frightened the
animal, and il went tearing down the
steep hill toward Portland street
at terrific speed. When 1t
reached Portland street, Mr.. Charles
Farris came driving along on the upper
side, with the Rev. Samuel Pearson IS
horse and sleigh. The galloping horse
came down like an enormous cannon
ball, struck the sleigh fair and square,
and knocked the upper part clean off the
runners, badly breaking it. OF course
Mr. Farris went with the sleigh, and
luckily was thrown right out of it with
out receiving any injury.
The horse fell down with the shock,
but so great was it's momentum that it
slid across the two electrician tracks,
across the Other side of the street and
up onto the sidewalk in front of Lonl-
bard's grocery store.
It's injuries, whatever they were, did
not prevent its being driven away. The
only damage to the sleigh was broken
shaft.

Mrs. Hunts Candidacy.

10 the Editor of the PRESS:
7 he women of the Portland Council
desire, through your courtesy, to state
publicly the sacrifice of private feeling
on the part of our candidate, Mrs. Au-
gusta NJ. II u Mt, when, at our urgent re-
quest, she permitted her name to remain
for the Wednesday election. Our organi-
cation stands for a principle in this
movement and it is a grave mistake to
impute to it any personal OF partisan
purpose. We believe the best interests
Of our children in the schools will be ad-
vanced by allowing women to sshare the
responsibility of their conduct with men
as members of the school committee. 1t
has been admitted that our schools fall
short of the desired standard. Several
reasons are given therefore. May not one
of these reasons be the need OF the keen
er perceptions of women in conjunction
with the more deliberate judgments of
men?
We have wrought for this union with
great patience in the past, and as a re-
suit of the brotherly recognition accord
ed US by the voters of the sixth ward
last Monday, we shall wait and work for
it as patiently and far more hopefully in
til future.
Meanwhile, we ask that in this step
and i'll others we may be led to take in
the path of progress, we may not be re-
garded as subverters of any righteous
law. or of any benefcent custom of soci-

III Nervousness

Is really only another name for impure
blood, for no person is weak and ner-
vous whose blood is perfectly pure.
When the blood is full of the germs
of disease, and lacking in the red cor
puscles which give it vitality, when it
fails to properly nourish the organs
and tissues of the body, what can you
expect but that tired feeling and ner-
Vousness?
OF course Scrofula, Salt Rheum,
Catarrh and rheumatism are uni
versally recognized as blood diseases,
for which Hoods Sarsaparilla, as the
best blood purifier, is everywhere
acknowled the greatest remedy.
Therefore, as Hoods Sarsaparilla
cures all blood diseases, it is the best
remedy for that condition Of the blood
which causes Nervousness.
1t is false idea to think YOU are
curing your nervousness when you are
taking preparation which only q,siets
your nerves! Tits like trying to drown
your sorrows in the flowing bowl.
They are sure to return, teaa-fold aDorse.
We wish to make most impressive,
then, this truism:
You cannot purify your blood by
DEADENING Or QUIETING your nerves
with opiate, narcotic or nerve COM
pounds. Ii you take such articles
you are only THRILLING with your
troubles. There is SURE to be REAC-
TON which will leave you worse than
you were before.
Why not then, take the true course,
follow the bee line to the state of
health, purify your blood and cure
your nervousness by taking

Normal School Apr OPERATIONS.

To the Editor of the PRESS:
Without discussing the question of
good accruing to the state, from her
three normal schools, it must be con-
fessed they are making drafts upon
the state treasury out of all proportion
to the good the people receive from
them. Pure normal school instructor
of itself may give student certificate
as teac her of their grade, but it is
not such education as young people need
to ut them for life; hence to keep these
students--ih some of these schools
seminary studies are introduced and
taught at the states expense. These
schools, as managed, are a continual
menace to other literary institutions
that are sustained by individual effort.
The state pours out its thousands and
tens of thousands of dollars annually TO
its normal schools, makes tuition free.
and thereby puts itself in competition
with other and better institutions of
learning sustained by individual enter
prise, where really teachers have a bet
ter lifting than they get at normal
schools. Then, again, these normal
schools furnish only small percent
of all the teachers required to instruct
i'll cur common schools, and the people
are dependent upon other institutions
Of learning, for a majority of their COM
mon school teachers
Ii logically follows that to build up
class Of schools at the expense of the state
which are a positive injury-to other
schools sustained by individual ener-
prise, is against public policy and the
public good.
In view of these facts and others that
might be mentioned, bearing upon she
same points, is 1t not time for the leg
islaure to come to a halt in extrav9-
CANT appropriations for favored class
at the expense of others equally deserv-
ing of state aid, but receiving nothing
from its treasury. lip

The long and interesting contest over the
choice of a member of the school committee
from Ward six was closed last evening The
withdrawal of Mrs. Hunt, which the
PRESS announced in the morning. was
further advertised by large placards on
the outside of the ward room doors an
nuouncing that Mrs. Hunt had withdrawn.
There was 4 manifest effort to get out a
large Democratic vote for MeQuillan, per-
haps with the idea that Republicans. think
ing Mr.. Bradley election sure, might be
caught mapping, ur perhaps with the idea
that some of Mrs. Hunts supporters would
vote f or McQuillan. But the Republican
vote was equal to the occasion, and gave
Mr.. Bradley a handsome majority. The
total vote was almost the same as that Of
Wednesday. The votes on each of the three
elections follows:
