SOMETHING ABOUT CLANS.
Less Used at Long Island This Season
Than Usual-An Interview with Mr..
Ponce in Regard to the Fascinating Mol
lusk.a

A PRESS reporter talked with Mr..
Ernesto Ponce, the other day in regard
to CLANS and clambakes. He said that he
had used about $50 bushels of clans
during the past season, and should set
the total number used on Long Island at
about 500 BUSHES. This is smaller than
the average of late years. There have
been less large clambakes this year than
usual. The Masons had their outing at
Boston, and did not caro- for Casoo Bay
CLAIMS. The Odd Fellows did not invite,
as usual, any of their friends from othsr
places. 1t is certainly fact that the
fascination of the clambake is losing its
power on the people in this immediate
vicinity. But while this decrease is going
on there has been an increase of patron
age from strangers.
This summer nearly every Sunday,
people at Long Island, who came from
Boston on purpose for clambake. This
number from Boston has increased every
year recently. Also more people from
distant points are coming to Casco Bay
for CLAIMS. On one occasion this summer
several people told Mr.. Ponce that they
had come all the way from New Orleans
on purpose for clambake. If their
numbers, as he said, were too few to
warrant his making bake just for them,
they were willing to pay for the whole
expense, if it should cost them So a piece
Mr.. Ponce secuted the idea that the
CLAIMS on Casco Bay flats would ever be.

'em the faster they grow, /" said he. But
he admitted that now they are not as
large as they used to be, and that 1T re-

ON THE SQUARE.
Jerry" Casey Denies That His Race With
Ten Eyck Was Fixed.

The report that the race between
"Jerry'' Casey, the South Boston sculler,
and Ten Ecyk, which came off at
Plasted's summer resort in Portland
harbor last Tuesday, was "fixed'' is en-
phatically denied by Casey. Casey feels
very ssore'' that any such rumors should
be floating around. and his friends, who
saw him in his race with Ten Eyck, are
willing to stand by him and see that he
is exonerated from any such accusations.
1t is doubtful that Casey or Ten Eyck,
with the reputation that both have in
athletic circles, would spoil 1t by any
foul or illegal racing. Casey is especially
anxious to have the matter thoroughly
sifted, and is doing all in his power to
bring it about Word is expected from
the Worcester oarsman which will have
the effect to discredit all unfayorable talk
regarding any fiasco.
Mr.. ST. John, who was unable to accept
the office of referee, is willing to testify
to his inability to be on hand on the
occasion.

LIVELY YACHT RACE.
Consolation Race of the Portland Yacht
Club Won by the Nahma.

The consolation race of the Portland
yacht club Saturday was sailed IN
weather that kept the amateur tars guess
ing most of the time. The race was for a
handsome cup and included the boats
that took part in the August series OF
races. A gentle northwest breeze mad
been blowing all day, shifted rs the gun
was fired to a dead head wind, and then
fatted out to calm, leaving the poats
barely stemming the tide. Some of the
yachts stood over to the Cape shore
hunting for wind, and the fleet became
well scattered. The wind soon got back
to it's old quarter and piped up merrily,
and the run to the mark Oh Birthstone
ledge was made under all sail. On the
run back the wind increased to stlH
blow with heavy squalls, and when on
Fort Gorges the Marietta, which had
oyerhauled the leaders and was negotiat-
ing for the lead, with the Premier,
carried away her topmast owing to the
strengthening of the sister hooks on her
preventer back stay, and was Obliged 20
drop out. Topsails were clewed up, but
when the bunch got back to Bug Light
the wind dropped to a topsail breeze
again. The Mamma won on her long time
allowance Following is the summary:

The court then took up the case of
State VS.. John Barry for assaulting Mark

O'Hare attacked him first; that he,
Barry, had knife in his hand, and was
whiting at the time, and in attempting
to ward off the blows of O'Hare he
aocidently cut him. The jury didn't seem
to have that implicit confidence in
Barry's version Of it, that his counsel did

FIRE ON cLAPBoARD ISLAND.
Barn Belonging to Hannaford Brothers
Destroyed Yesterday Afternoon-Loss
$500, Insurance SsOO-Caught Under
Peculiar Circu instances.

AS the steamer Madeline was returning
from the Sunday excursion to Freeport
yesterday afternoon about four O'Clock,
those on board noticed dense smoke
rising from the neighborhood OF Clap
board Island
AS the steamer rounded the curve
which brings the island into full view,
they beheld the large barn which is
situated about one hundred yards from
the island in mass of flames The cause
of the fire is mystery.
Old John Sturdivant, who is employed
by Hannaford brothers to care for the
property, and who lives there with his
family the year round, says that for some
time past the crops which are raised to
supply the owners produce business, have
suffered lately at the hands of marauders
who have generally made their ravages
under the cover of darkness. The squash
crop in particular has been tempered
with, the thieves taking large number
OF the squashes, but they had the kind
ness to leave one which weigh ed between
six and seven pounds.
But the crops were not the only object
of their attack, for several of the farming
implements were stolen and several
windows in the barn broken. Mr.. T. r.
Hannaford, one of the owners of the
island, spent yesterday afternoon on
Clapboard island, and tells the story OF
the fire as follows:
~ arrived at the island about half past
three and proceeded up to the house of
Mr.. Sturdivant After spending some
ii me there went cut with Mr.. Sturdi-
want, who was going to get the horse
which is allowed to roam at will over the
island, and which at that time was on
the other side of the island. When we re-
turned, we saw smoke issuing from the
barn, and before we could arrive on the
spot, it was in flames.
As there is little water on the island,
and the barn contained thirty five tons
Of hay, it was impossible to check it, and
for over two hours it seemed as though
twilight had hesitated in dropping its
curtain and hundreds of yards away the
picturesque scenery of the surrounding
island was brightly illuminated by the
immense blaze.
Mr. Hannaford estimated the loss at
$500. it is insured for $500.
The case will be thoroughly inyesti-
gated, and if the nightly visitors to this
lonely island are caught it will go hard
with them.

Harbor Notes.

There were four United States steam
ers in the harbor Sunday morning, viz:
the steamer Woodbury., the lighthouse
supply steamer Myrtle, the buoy steam
er Lilac and the oil supply steamer
Azalea. The last three came in Satur-
day night.
The Azalea patrols the entire Atlantic
coast and supplies all the lighthouses
with oil. She brought to this port Major
Livermore of Boston, chief of the Maine
and Massachusetts, districts He was evil
IDENTIFY in hurry to reach Boston, since
he was put ashore here in order to take
the train. The Azalea left Sunday. morn
ing.
The Myrtle is on her way down east to
supply the lighthouses with necessary
articles. She had on board two new
donkey engines. They are used at the
lighthouse stations quite extensively for
heavy work.
The schooner Stephen Bennett arrived
Saturday night with the winters supply
of coal for Fort Preble soldiers. She
anchored close to the fort and will begin
to discharge this morning.
1t was an ideal day yesterday. The
harbor and the islands certainly have
not been lovelier at any time this summer
and the sunshine was warm while the
air was invigorating Yet what con-
trast was presented to the Sunday spec
taoIe of but few weeks ago. Only one
of the Casco Bay Company's boats was

but small number of people.
One man who hadn't noticed the
change Of time that began. Sunday, came
down to take the 3.15 for Cushing's, but
found that he must wait till 4.20. The
Emita went down, the last boattfor the
day, and took in the route of the other
steamers from Cushing's to Long Island.
The recent GOLD weather has brought the
cottsgers up in a body almost. They
fooked up last week by the score. At
least 30 per cent of them have now re-
turned to their homes.
1t is always hard time for the steam
boat men when the cottagers come home.
They always come in flock like so
many frightened sheep as if Jack Frost
had scared them, and always have just
twice as much baggage as they did when
they went down singly all summer, but
they bring them back altogether.
Manager Cooling was away. yesterday
on a trip ito the White. Mountains, and
So couldn't be asked as to the extent of
the summers business compared to other
years. Mr. Samuel Green who takes the
tickets, and who certainly knows about
the number of people, thinks the bust
ness will compare favorably with that
of other years, despite the fact that it
has been an unusually cold and stormy
season. There was 10 days of fog at the
beginning in July and there has scarcely
been three good days in succession since.
The excursions have been numerous,
though not very large, but the general
travel has been extensive.

OBITUARY..
Dr.. George M. Staples.

DR.. George NJ Staples of Dubuque,
week, was probably the most prominent
physician in Iowa, and enjoyed the
largest practice. He was born in Buxton
in this state, April 20, 1927, and
graduated at Colby University in 1S49.
He studied medicine at Harvard Univer-
sity and Bowdoin college, taking his de-
gree in the latter college in 1855. He be-
gan practice in Pennington but remained
there but a short time, emigrating to
Iowa and settling in Dubuque in 1885,
He was surgeon of the 18th Iowa Regi-
ment during the war of the rebellion,
serving with great distinction. EAfter the
war he returned to Dubuque, where he
pent the remainder of his long life. The
Dubuque Harvard says he undoubtedly
had the largest income from the practice
of medicine of any physician in the state
of Iowa. and one that was exceeded by
very few physicians in Chicago. For
many years he was the physician in
charge of the Illinois Central business on
it's Iowa division, the Chicago, Milwaukee
& ST. Paul, and the Chicago, Burlington
& Northern. He had acquired a large
practice in surgery; he was called in
consultation all over northern Iowa, and
he was always at work. AS he began to
accumulate he proved to be safe and
careful investor, and so thrifty had he
become that his wealth is generally
