Sunday Excursion.

The steamer Pilgrim will make an ex-
cursion tomorrow afternoon up the beau
tiful Royal river to Yarmouth, then down
among the inner islands nearly to Harps-
well and then return to the city. The
steamer will leave Custom house wharf
at 2.15 and touch at Peaks island for pas
sengers who wish to take the sail and
on the return trip she will touch again at
Peaks island to leave those who do not
wish to return to the city.
This will make fine trip, lasting
about two hours. Artists will never grow
tired of painting the beautiful scenery
or poets weary of singing the praises of
the beauties of Casco bay. Take this
sail and see for yourself:
Islands of beauty in richness arising,
Back in the glorious glow of the day;
Ocean has joy in these jewels perspiring.
Emerald gems on the breast Of thesbay. . !.

Mrs. Martin Glynn. an old and crippled
woman, was in the municipal court yes
terday morning, the complainant against
Mary johnson, woman about 40 years
of age. The latter was charged with as
saulting Mrs. Glynn with a stone, in
flicting severe confusion over the old
woman's left eye.
The Glynns live at 436 Commercial
street and the Johnsons live in the next
house, but one. 1t appeared that Mrs.
johnson was quarrelsome neighbor and
was in the habit of abusing old Mrs.
Glynn at every opportunity, and that
Thursday night she entered the Glynn
house, made an onslaught on the kitchen
and knocked the dishes on the floor. She
then hit Mrs Glynn with the stone, max
ing bad wound.
Mrs. johnson claimed that Mr. Glynn
had seized her by the arm and dragged
her into the Glynn house. She said that
she was the one who had been assaulted.
"This seems to have been very fero-
cious assault said the court, and Officer
Hanson was called up to testify as,,to the
character Of the parties.
"This johnson woman said the Off
Ger, sis continually making trouble in
every neighborhood in which she lives.
She has in the past ten or fifteen years
been arrested for this offence, and fire.
quent complaints have been received
about her. Mr.. and Mrs. Glynn are a
reacable old couple who never make any
trouble for anybody
Judge Robinson gave Mrs. johnson
three months.
