CAPTAIN ALIENS WORK.
Rev. f. Southworth Found a Good Degree
of Religious Interest at Muscongusi
Island.

Rev. E. Southworth went to Musoon-
gust Island Saturday, and Sunday con-
Quoted rel igious service there. He found
q good degree of religious interest among
the people, the result of the labors Of
Captain Allen. who is now there, and
who has been carrying forward a very
successful work. Books are needed for
the Sunday school, and in time, perhaps,
a more thorough religious organization.
Captain Allen brought Mr.. Southworth
to this city yesterday in his missionary
yacht the Alert, and after taking supplies
on board the captain started yesterday
afternoon on his return trip with fair
wind In his favor. MIR. Southworth is
very much in impressed with the work
Captain Allen is doing along the coast.

MONUMENTAL RECORDS.
Rev. DIR. Baum's First Lecture at the First
Baptist Church.

Last evening Rev. DR.. Baum delivered
the first of his lectures on Monumental
Records discovered in the ruins of Babyl-
on, Norwich, and the other cities of
the old world and Illuminating the great
turning points in history from the
dawn OF civilization to the triumph of
Christianity over paganism. There was
a very appreciative audience present that
filed all the body pews of the church,
and a number on the side aisles. For
two hours everyone enjoyed the lecturers
beautiful views, and listened with the
deepest attention to his array of Biblical
facts and the eloquent manner in which
he spoke Of the recent discoveries in con-
firmation of the truths OF scripture.
At the beginning of his lecture DR..
Baum requested the indulgence of the
audience If there should happen to be
any lack of connection between the
views exhibited and the point the lee
turer might desire to make as he had
new operator, but, as a rule the views
and lecture worked we'll together. Before
entering into the subject matter of the
evening a number of pictures of the mas
terpieces of soriptural historical paintings
were thrown on the screen and the audi
ence united in singing hymn familiar
to all, accompanied by the organ. Then,
beginning with the Creation, and pre-
senting views Of the supposed location Of
the Garden of Eden, DR.. Baum men
toned gathering up and stating the dis
ooveries in Assyria. Babylon, Egypt and
Palestine, setting forth in vivid array the
indubitable proofs of the historic accura-
cy of the word of God. Many of the views
were Of great artistic beauty and value,
especially those presenting many of the
famed temples and palaces of those
oriental countries.
Next Wednesday evening DR.. Baum
will deliver his second and last lecture
and we would urge upon all who desire
to listen to most convincing lecture and
to view some of the finest stereopticon
views that have been exhibited here, to
be sure and attend. DR.. Baum was
born in lS48 and, after studying law. en-
tered the ministry of the Protestant Epis-
copal church in 1871. For ten years he
was engaged in continuous parochial
work, during which time he built several
churches, and published work on Eccle-
siastical and Canon law. In 1881 he be-
came editor of the Church Review, max
ing it a quarterly of over 300 pages, and
of which the London Guardian, the great
est of English papers, said: "The
church in the United States should feol
proud Of this most valuable review
which quite equals, if in some particulars
it does not surpass. its English contem-
poraries." In 1890 he conducted in the
| Church Review the great discussion on
Church Reunion in which thirty Of the
most distinguished clergymen, represent
ing the seven chief religious bodies of the
United States, took part. At the close of
the following year DR.. Baum gave up his
editorial work to enter the lecture fell
and has since labored exclusively in the
domain of history, presenting his topics
to the public with the aid Of lantern
| illustrations.

PAPER REPLEVlNED.
A Big Seizure at Basins Mills by United
States Marshal Donovan.

Last Friday morning United States
Marshal Donovan with Deputy United
States Marshals Smith, Emery and
Prescott, and accompanied by Mr.. Will
liam NJ. Bradley of this city, counsel for
Tram, Smith s. Co., of Boston, paper
manufact urers, went to Basins Mills,
near Bangor and served rit of replev.
in, made against G. j. Dunn Of Orono,
an assignee, upon large stock of man.
ufactured paper in the possession of the
Bangor Pulp and Paper company recent
ly assigned. This great stock of paper
had been pr ep AIRED for shipment just at
the time when the mills shut down on
account of the embarrassment in the de-
PENDANT company affairs. The paper, as
the plaintiffs claimed, had been duly
paid for according to the original terms
of sale and delivered IN the eyes of the
law, and was in fact the property of the
plaintiffs the defendant company being
liable for the actual shipment OF the.goods.
A large crowd of people collected about
the mills while the disbursement Of the
paper was going on and looked upon the
movement with great perturbation for
they had relied on this stock in part to
secure their pay, owing thema from defen-
dant corporation. The situation was ex-
planned TO them, however, and upon un-
derstanding the point, that the paper in
stock was not amenable to their claims
in any event, and that it was in fact, the
property Of Others they acquiesced to the
continuance of proceedings. AS to the
influence of this move on the part of
Train, Smith & Co., nobody seems to be
able to say much. The right of the plain
tiff company to the paper seems to be
undoubted, but the prosecution Of their
claim has removed from the vision of the
former employees Of the company what
they considered to be their one chance of
recovering back wages due them from the
Bangor Pulp and Paper company.
The officers Of the assigned firm are all
Massachusetts men according to the term
of the lease by which the Bangor Pulp
and Bangor company obtained control of
the Orono Pulp and Paper company s
plant, that latter concern was to obtain
the plant by forfeiture should the lessee
fail to carry out the terms of the contract
as to the payment Of rent. So far as cal
be learned the original Orono company
have no published plans for the future
conduct Of the mills. There is still some
talk of reorganization of the Bangor
company and a continuance of the bust
ness at the mill under the management
which controlled is ct the time of the
failure on February s6 of the present
year. I The loss of the paper has unsettled
the workmen by destroying their only
actual claim upon the company for wages
due them in arrears, and has created a
feeling amongst them that will be likely
to make matters hard for the people who
next begin operations in the plant at the
Basin.

suit Against Order Knights of Golden


A suit has been brought against the
Grand Commandery of the United Order
of the Golden Gross to recover payment
of an insurance Of So, 900 ON the life of
George T. Kinmond of Westbrook. who
committed suicide at Bath two years ago.
The wife and children of the insured
were the benefciaries named in his GER
tificate, and the suit is brought by them.
Messrs. William H. Looney and NJ P.
Frank, of Portland, are counsel for the
plaintiffs Savage & Cakes Of Auburn for
the defense. The defense is that the in
sured was under the influence Of liquor
when he took his life, and that no had
engaged in the sale of intoxicants, both
of which acts were in violation of the
terms Of his policy. The plaintiffs will
deny that Kinmond ever sold liquor,
and will endeavor to show that he used
liquor only moderately. They have sum-
moned as witnesses the foreman Of the
Bath Iron Works. who, it is claimed, will
testify that he was sober and industrious
during the period Of his employment
there, just prior to his suicide.
The case is assigned for trial at this
term of the Cumberland County Superb
or Court.

Last evening Patrolmen Madden and
Re3ord found woman on Commercial
street.. She was badly Intoxicated and
had evidently been overheard. She WAS
taken to the station where she COM
plotely failed to account for her con-
dition, but suggested the theory that she
might have been down on the fats
digging CLANS" She was very wet, and
thoroughly chilled. 1t is thought by the
officers that she probably tried to go on
board a vessel, but went overheard in
stead and was then helped back on the
wharf. Later in the evening the officers
found her cape on the street where she
dropped it. She Was identified by Patrol
men Madden and Record as Lizzie
Hammond.

spain Will BE Short Of Wheat.

WASHINGTON, June ll.-Owing to
copious rains early in May last, the con.
dition of the Spanish grain crops has
materially improved. Still. according to
United States Consul Fay at Denia,
owing to the diminished area Of crops,
Spain will import 800, 900, 900 pounds Of
wheat. He suggests that as no country
is so favorably situated as the United
States to supply this demand. this mar
ket may be secured by the establish
ment of direct steamship lines.
