hung by her bedside day and night

the little sufferer. And though it
was hard to give her up. they could
not help sigh of relief when death

WAS left a widow to battle with the
trials of life when her children
were small; but trusting in the All
Wise Providence, who hath prom

trust in Him, she was permitted
to rear her children and give them
good education.
She had often prayed that her

plandits of admiring friends. She
has left to the sorrowing friends, to
the community, to the church an
influence for good that win never
die. She leaves four children, two
sons and two daughters, all of

RAPID WORK IN LABELLING CANS

From the early days of packing vege-
tables, fruit, etc., in dramatically sealed
tins, to the present time there have been,
naturally, many improvements, but until
within . short ullne, comparatively speak
ing, all labels have been put on by hand.
During the past year, however, there
has been in use in most of the large can
ming estatA shnents, q machine called
the HBurts'' that does some wonderful
work and to the outsider seems almost
human in the way it puts on the labels.
One ofa them has lately been placed in
the Gait Block Warehouse Co.'s labelling
room and was running last week under
the direction Of Mr.. G. M. Russell of St.
Adams.
MIR. Russell says that this small and
simple machine, which is only about ten
feet long, and is handled by the turning
OF crank by one man, easily puts on
from 1000 to 40 600 labels in day, that
is, labels up 500 to 75O cases a day of the
wrapper LABEL or can put on 5O,0u0
labels t1000 cases) day of the ordinary
kind. By the old way 1t took from "a
to 30 girls to do the work which one man
and tive or six girls can now do easily.
Each can is fed from case and rolls
along q sort of truck which is kept in
motion by an endless belt. A brush
touches each can, as it rolls along, with
glue which adheres to one of pile Of
labels that is rolled around each can The
last fold is pasted by the machine cut by
a series of cone-shapsd 'tfolders' and ends
are turned in. All the girls have to do is
to bump each end and the job is done.
The machine works SO that each label is
put on with absolute accuracy and nc
mistake can occur.

SUPERIOR COURT.
Case Tried For False imprisonment.

In the Superior court yesterday morn
ing q false imprisonment case was tried.
On Sunday afternoon, November /, 1896,
Robert A. Brownley, a barber with two
friends, were driving up Cumberland
street when, at the corner of Elm and
Cumberland streets the horse became
BROMLEY either jumped or was thrown
out, striking upon his head. He got up
and was invited into the house OF Ma
thaniel W. Morse by Mrs. Morse, and
shown into o room off from the parlor
called the "den.'' There his face was
washed and then he was taken into the
kitchen and his clothes brushed and he
departed for his home. He was alone a
minute or two while Mrs. Morse went af-
ter some warm water. 1t appears that at
the time the accident occurred Mr.. Morse
sat upon the sofa in the den examining
some valuable papers, including bonds
and certificates of bank stock. Shortly
after Brownley's departure he missed and
could not find bonds of the value of
IS, 500. He looked in his safe, but did not
find them. He went to the police sta
ton. Brownley was arrested, taken to
the station, searched, and detained there
two hours, while his house was searched.
After this occurred, late in the evening,
Mr. Morse in putting away some other
papers, found the bonds in his safe under
shelf that had become loose and fallen
down upon them.
Brownley claims $4,000 damages. The
defendant claims that he had no malice,
that he had good grounds to believe that
Brownley took the bonds, and that he
gave the officers permission to search his
person and search his house. Decision
reserved. C. A. True, E. Fl. Wilson
for plaintiff; George Libby for defendant.
John W. Scott vs.. Henry j. Wilkins and
Glenford Foster. Action on three promi-
sorry notes, signed by Wilkins, Foster &
Co., amounting to $3.50. Defense is that
it was< accommodation paper and with
Otto c. Scales of Boston for plaintiff;
Benjamin. Thompson for defendant.

had large general cargo.
The Boston and Gloucester ash dealers
war is good thing for Portland. The
vessels sailing out of this port are now
quite sure of disposing of their catches
here and at good prices. Many Gloucester
vessels also find a market here when they
are held off from going to that port. The
Boston fish dealers have been making
great attempts to buy vessels but have
not made any effort to secure fishermen
hailing from this port.

port and is expected at any time. The
Queensmore is running in the Elder
Dempster service taking the place of the

The steamship agents here say that no
great amount of American wheat has
been shipped out of this port SO far this
season and as far as could be learned no
large amounts of American wheat has
been booked on any of the steamship
lines for the month of January. Evident
