Fine Driving,

Yesterday afternoon a hack drawn by a
pair of white horses, was standing on
Oak, near Congress street, just as a
buggy drawn by a pair of spirited black
horses, driven by Mr.. Henry Taylor.
came out of Taylor's stable headed
towards Congress street. just then an
electric car came along on Congress street
and the pair of blacks were right on their
hind legs. Mr.. Taylor with great cool
ness, swung the pair with the buggy at
tached, around by the side IF the other
team, although the axle was slightly
wrenched by the suddenness of the turn.
Then he had wrench brought from the
stable and the axle was fixed, after which
Mr.. Taylor drove the pair down Oak to
Cumberland street, giving them some
necessary instruction OH the route
When those blacks first went into the air
an ordinary driver would have been
ratified and lost command Of his horses
and probably serious damage would have
resulted.

Head Men of Many Towns Called on the
First Two Days Session.

Many selectmen were in Portland Tues
day, for the State Assessors were in
session at the City Building, and the
town authorities had been summoned
to appear either Tuesday or Wednesday,
and bring stheir assessment lists. 1.-The
towns whose assessors appeared Tues
day were Casco, Harrison, Bridgton,
Yarmouth, Windham, Gorham, Scarbo-
rough. S bago, New Gloucester. Harp
swell, Freeport, Falmouth, Pownal, Bald
win, Naples, Otisfeld, Standish, Cape
Elizabeth and Portland.
The members of the State Board of
Assessors are Otis Hayford of Canton /;
George ottIe of Lewiston and VIM. G.
Marsha of Belfast. John Plummer of
Augusta is clerk.
The law requires that every two years
they shall hold a meeting in each coun-
ty. This is for the purpose of rectifying
inequalities, and obtaining as near as
can be the correct biennial valuation
which will be due in 1896.
The assessors endeavor to deal some
what with the personal property tax
dodger, but it is difficult problem. The
furniture in the summer hotels owned by
non residents escapes taxation. So gener-
ally do the logs of the great lumber cut
of Maine.
The.assessors report that the returns
from the whole state this year show a
gratifying increase in valuation, exceed
ing 1894 by at least 81, 900, 900. The valu-
alton of 1894 exceed that of 1899 by SIC, :
900, 900. So far as the assessors can judge
the valuation, when it is completed will
exceed that of 1894 by from 81, 900, 900 to
$40, 900, 000
Of course among all Of the towns in
Maine, Portland stands the richest and
averages about $1,000 to every man, wom-
an and child in the city. 1t is probably
one of the richest towns in proportion
to its population in the United States,
and there are very few cities which can
make as good showing as the banner
city of Maine.

SUPERIOR COURT.
BEFORE JUDGE BoNNEY

Yesterday afternoon the court heard the
case of Dorothea Matthias against
Wendell Kirsch. 1t is a suit on a
promissory note for $500 given te
Solomon Matthias, June 49, 1898, on foul
months. The owner of the note is
Solomon Shine, or rather his wife, who
claims to hold the note as collateral
security on loan made by him to Mr..
Matthias, but through oversight the note
was not endorsed over by Matthias.
Mr. Kirsch defends on the ground that
the note was only an accommodation OF
memorandum given Matthias for his
Matthias, endorsement upon a note for
Kirsch; that he never had any knowledge
that Matthias intended to or had used thu
note, and if he did it was contrary to the
express agreement between them. The
case was suspended to take the testimony
of an important witness in New York,
who is at present sick and unable to at
tend court.
L. B. bennett, for plaintiff.
Charles f. Libby for defendant.

CHARGED WITH CRUELTY.
Cook Mcnamara of the Ship William
I'll. Conner.

Caused the Arrest of Capt. PendIeton and
Mate Parse Last Eyening-The Hearing
This Forenoon.
There was a ru1nor about town yester-
day that Capt. Pendleton andEMate Parse
of the ship William Fl. Conner had been
charged by Cook MoNamara with brutal
treatment on shipboard, and that the
United States authorities were about to
take some action.
A representative of the PRESS called
on Capt Pendleton on board the ship at
about O'Clock yesterday afternoon. He
had lust returned at noon from his home
at Searsport. He said he knew nothing
of the charges against him or of any
action of the United States authorities.
Other men along the water front who
knew Capt. Pendleton, declared that they
did not believe there was any truth in
the charges, even if they had been made.
AS matter of fact the charges had
been made, and Monday night United
States Deputy Marshal Emery nstarted
for Searsport with a warrant for the
arrest of Capt. Frank /. Pendleton and
Mate James Parse. The warrant charged
that they, on the first of Jan uary, 1895.
on the high seas, within the jurisdiction
of the United States, with malice hatred
and revenge, for and without justiiable
cause, did beat and wound one..William
Mcnamara of Millbridge, who was cook of
the ship at the time
Deputy Marshal Emery did not find
them at Searsport, because they passed
him coming to Portland. They got
here at noon and Emery got here at
about $50 p. m. Immediately he went
to the ship with Deputy Marshal Smith
and they arrested Capt. Pendleton and
Mate Parse.
They were then taken before Commits
sioner Bradley early last evening and
held in $500 each to appear in the United
States Court at 10 a. m. today. Capt.
VIM. Leavitt of Chase, Leavitt & Co.,
agents for the ship, gave sureties for
Capt. Pendleton, and the latter and
Capt. Leayitt gave sureties for Mate
Parse.

, A Compliment for Portland.

The Bangor Commercial says: The
shaking-up in the Grand Trunk and the
indication that competition with the
Canadian Pacific is to be forced a little is
expected to mean a vast deal to Portland.
Among other things the Maine city will
become the all-the-yeara port OF
the Dominion line of steamers which are
to run in connection with the Grand
Trunk. Regular steamers to Europe will
be grand thing for Portland and we
congratulate the Forest City upon the
prospect. The nice old Casco city's pros
perity is good thing for the whole state.
