Monument Square Taken.

Monument square was occupied
along toward midnight last night, and
for time the army of occupation was
undisturbed. 1t came from Center street
in the form of bnck and white little
animal with 5ushy tail and strong
breath.
A couple of dances wsre in progress on
the square and concert of the powers
was attempted to compel the animal to
vacate, but the repressn tatives of the
powers could not be. prevailed upun to
apply coercive measures, and their will
was set at defanss. Nearly 100 people
congregated in ths street and devised
measures for Gislodging the enemy but
no one wanted to apply them.
At last the Center street representative
lodged down an alley near Homestead q
dry goods store and peace prevailed. hu
for an hour or two afterwards you could
cut the air with knife most anywhere
in the square.

For a Civic League.

A Christian Civic League convention
HIS been called to meet in Wsteryille
March go. The purpose of the Ieague is to
organize the moral sentiment of the
state against what is claimed to be an
alarming tendency to nullify law in
Maine, as veil as throughout the coun-
try. 1t is the purpose CT the league to or
ganize auxiliary leagues in counties and
towns. The CALI for the convention,
which is signed by a. Il. Dunn, G. d.
B. Pepper and W. It. Berry, says among
other things:
"A growing spirit of lawlessness in
our state has developed feeling Of
alarm. More than HOO liquor sellers are
doing business in our state in defiance
of cur constitution and statutes. The
constituted authorities. with few excep-
lions, are making no effort to suppress
this lawlessness, but are directing their
efforts solely to moderate replenish-
ment of the county treasures through
ines imposed, and so, in effect, are per-
petuating the saloon. Twelve murders
were committed in our state last year.
and II persons were sentenced to the
state prison at the last term of the Supe-
'rior court in Cumberland county. Law
lessness is rapidly increasing in our
state, and for this increase the saloon is
largely responsible. The saloon and its
sympathizers are thoroughly united and
organized to perpetuate and extend their
Illegal traffic.

ficient, / think, to have charged that he
went to port in a particular country,
but that the name of the port is to the
relator unknown, or that he went
within soundings, or within an
chorage of a particular country, or TO a
given point on the high seas, to be marked
approximately by its latitude and longi-
tude, or to a meeting point with another
vessel on the high seas. In other words,
any certainty of statement which would
give him definite information as to the
character of the accusation under which
his vessel is held. Then the law pre-
sumes he will be prepared to rebut It.
But how can he rebut this charge? How
could he bring witnesses to meet the al
legations of this indefinite character? 1
do not think it would be possible for him
to do so, unless it was competent for him
to bring witnesses from every possible
port which the Dauntess might have gone
to, and the district attorney under the
present libel if it were legal, could intro.
whatsoever without any power on the part
of the defendant TO disprove it. So /
must hold that the libel is insufficient, and
that the exceptions must be sustained"
Under this decision in the case there
was nothing for the district attorney to do
but submit which he did very gracefully,
and askedss leave of the court to be al
lowed to amend his libel, and bring it up
in the amended form. This he said he
thought he could do shortly, though he
had first to consult with his witnesses.
He stated to the court he thought he
could have the matter ready by 10 o'clock
this morning, and that he would make
every effort to do so, though he would not
be absolutely certain.
We'll don't you think you can have it
ready by that timer the court asked.
Il cannot PROMISE but 1 will make every
effort to do So" Maj. Gary replied.
Wei you must have it ready in the
morning, and by 10 O'clock" Judge Speer
said, and Maj. Gary acquiesced.
Maj Gary spent the afternoon and last
night in consultation with his witnesses
in the matter, and will probably present
practically a new libel to the court this
morning. The proceedings in the case will
undoubtedly be quite interesting.
