Balboa Post Meets.
The regular monthly meeting OF Ballou
Post was held last evening, but owing 70
the storm the attendance was rather light.
One OF the most important subjects under
confederation was the proposed trip to the
National Encampment which will take
place In the month Of August at Buffalo.
The original intention Of members OF the
Post was to attend the camp In large num-
bsrs. With this idea In view the Post held
. number OF entertainments during tho
past winter months. II was thought thst
by this means sufficient amount would
be raised to defray the expenses OF large
number OF the members. The entertain
ments did not result In such financial
success as was anticipated and conse-
quently those who attend will have to pay
their own expenses.
Stopped the Train.
Patrick Creighton, formerly OF the
Soldiers Home at Togus, Me-, filed up
yesterday on fire water and started out to
see the sights about the city. His gyra-
tions brought him to the railroad tracks
which he concluded to take possession OF
for the time being. He got near the
North bound track and regardless OF the
fact that the fast express was bearing
down on him he refused to step one side
and let the train pass. The engineer COM
pretending the situation stopped the
train and Patrick was given into the care
Of Officer Joseph Whipple who escorted
him to hotel Goldsmith.
The Date Changed.
1t was intended to hold the investigating
Of the charges against Officer James Han
rahan on next Monday evening, but the
City Solicitor had made arrangements to
leave on his vacation on Saturday evening
and on that account the date had to be
changed. Arrangements have now been
made to have the hearing on Friday
evening at 1880 o'clock.
Little Damage Done.
Notwithstanding the severity of the
storm last evening there was but little
damage done. In the park one of the
stately poplars was blown to the ground
and young tree near the Valley bridge on
Broad street succumbed to the pressure.
John Lemay had a narrow escape from
being struck by falling limb located on
the Balcom estate. Mr.. Lemay was passing
at the time and had barely time to spring
to one side as the limb came crashing to
the ground. Outside of these few acci-
dents there was scarcely any other damage
done.
Runaway Last Evening
A horse and wagon belonging to farmer
named Esterbrooks Of Cumberland, was
left standing on Dexter street last evening,

pole, completely wrecking the team and
spilling the load OF eggs and milk about
the street.
