WORK OF THE MISSION.
Mr. n. A. Robbins was present, now
ever. and he ably represented the mission
IN an address that gave To those present an
insight tn the work OF the mission He
said the work was done to carry out the
teachings Of the Eible, for in that was
found the statement, THY Kingdom
Come 1t was for the coming OF Gods
Kingdom nd for the destruction OF Satan's
Kingdom that the mission was estab-
lished and the Work prosecuted so yigor-
ously day after day. The Central Union
Mission and the Anti-Saloon League were
connected; the former as cure for the
Ills which follow the drinking OF liquor, q nd
the latter as preventive. The league
might be rega rded as the better Of the two
organizations. for an ounce of prevention is
worth found Of cure. The speaker re-
ferrcd to case which came under his
nntice at the mission, and said that If
others could see as he had seen what the
Anti-Sa.non League, the W. c. T. L., the

God bless them and help them.

He said he believed the men who cried
and sighed because of the sins Of the cit Y
were the men to be depended on to do
the effective work OF a movement like
that OF the Anti-Salcon League. The
boy who loves his mother, the man who
stands true TO his marriage vows, and he
who has learned 10 say no are the
people in whom 10 place ones dependence
ana who are the best for the community.
There are links that bind stronger than
links of steel the men OF the. Anti-Saloon
League TO that man who walked upon
Mount Calvary bearing a cross. There
is something to cry about, something 10
sigh over TIE responsibility OF the wick
edness rests with the people who aid in
carrying it out, who do not aid in sup
pressing it
The league is working to close up the
saloopS-not one, but all of them, they are
working to close up this avenue of sin. and
expect some day to see the sign on each
saloon door. This way is closed" Eve
are bound together in this work" he
concluded, - so let us lose NO time in getting
to work to help our fellowman. Time

DEMOCRATS TO-DAY.
Their County Convention Does Not Promise
to Be Spirited.


The Democratic county convention,
which meets in this city today does not
promise to be very spirited body. 1t
Is quite likely not to be very large
gathering, as some of TIE towns will not
be represented. South Portland, for in
stance, will send no delegates, as the
decision of Chairman Thomas B. Haskell
and Secretary Small of the town com
mittee to bolt the nomination of Bryan
and Sewall, left Thursday nights caucus
SO paralyzed that no delegates were
chosen.
1t is probable that Mr.. Morrill, of Gray.
will be nominated for sheriff. The other
nominations will be likely to go
begging. Indeed they have already done
SO to large extent. Some Of the men
who ran last year have asked to be re-
ieved of the courtesy of denomination.

Should today prove pleasant there will
be q very large attendance at Riverton
park to sse the Japs. These people are
really wonderful gymnasts. Their
balancing feats are something marvellous.

say they cannot be surpassed in their
specialties. Be sure and test one of Mr..

TUG SAMSON AGROUND.
She Ran Ashore on Cupboard Island
Thursday Night at High Tide.

On Thursday night at about high tide
the tow boat James Samson of Portland,
owned and commanded by Capt. James
B.-Dodge of South Portland, ran aground
Cd ledge near what is known at Smooth
Clapboard Island In the lower bay.
The Samson had at the time scow
loaded with hay and Capt. Dodgess ran
too near this island and WAS grounded
high and dry. All day yesterday the
tow boat Demerest WAS working about
the Samson trying to float her but with
out success. 1t WAS hoped that she might
be pulled off ct high tide yesterday but
she could not be even started. Abont
the middle of the afternoon the Demorest
returned to Portland to get stronger
tackle and more help. She then returned
to the stranded vessel and it was hoped
that she might be foated at flood tide
last night.
