Black HILLS to resolve IN favor OF Plow.
man for the position we're all put up
jobs of gold bugs and republicans, and
but few voters attended them. Snap
resolutions were passed and the meet
ings adjourned before others could ar.
rive, AMI out of the dozen or more meet
lngs reported to the outside world only
two were held and these SLIM affairs.
It then does up Plowman personally as
not a thorough popullst at all, catering
to the republicans both on the bench
and in politics, and charging him with
having done very little for the populist
party except when after office himself.
These are serious charges which Judge
Plowman may lind hard to explain away.

1t may be worth something to know
that the very best medicine for restoring
the tired out nervous system to a healthy
vlgor Is Electric Bitters. This medicine
is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone
to the nerve centre in the stomach,
gently stimulates the liver and kidneys,
and aids these organs in throwing off
impurities in the blood. Electric Bitters
improves the appetite, aids digestion,
and is pronounced by those who have
tried it as the very best blood purifier
and nerve tonic. Try it. Sold for SOC

ATTEMPTED HIGHWAY ROBBERY.
But the Would Be Victim Wa. Too ou,c,,
for the Robber.

Shortly after 10 O'Clock Thursday night.
or rather Friday morning, Mr.. G. A.
Robinson of the Robinson Wooden Mills
and ex-Postmaster John G. Small were
on their way up town to their homes
At Park street both noticed rather sus.
picious looking character pass them, but
thought little of it. The two friends
parted at the corner of State street, Mr.
Small going to his house and Mr.. Robin
son passing on toward his home. The
night being rather warm he removed his
overcoat and walked leisurely up the
street. He noticed the same supicious
looking man ahead of him, but even then
gave the circumstance little thought.
When near the corner of Thomas street,
the highway robber, as he turned out to
be, suddenly wheeled around and made
vicious lunge for the citizen with
wicked looking slung shot.
The gentleman being of athletic build,
lodged quickly and escaped the blow at
the same time striking hard at his assail-
ant. 1t was well aimed blow for it took
the robber squarely on the point of the
jaw and over he went into the gutter
In an instant the citizen was on him
and the assailant was melted a punish
ment that will long remain in his memo
ry. He begged for mercy, but his captor
held him tightly and called loudly for as
sistance that the man might be handed
over to the authorities. He.received no
response and not caring to hold the man
there all night, after Furnishing him well,
he released his grasp and proceeded to
his home.
Yesterday morning City Marshal Syl-
vester was informed and the police are
looking for the footpad.

pairing and fitting up for the summer.
Lying at Widgerys wharf yesterday

state.
A new yacht arrived here yesterday
She is a handsome sloop and is called the
Beatrice. Her hailing port is Buffalo.
The schooner Uncle 10 arrived here
yesterday with %, 900 fish.
repairs are being made on the schooner
Louisa Pollys which was in collision off
Matlnlcus with the steamship Magda on
Wednesday morning. The amount of the
damage done to this vessel was about $500
and the bill is to be paid, so it is said, by
the steamship The thick fog which con-
tinues to envelope these shores has great
ly lnterferred with all coastwise business.
Yesterday morning the Frank Jones did
not arrive until 8 clock, although she
was due to reach here on Thursday eve
ming. The St. Croix was also greatly de-
layed by the fog.
Next Monday the steamboat Fannie
Spraglle, from Rockland, will go on the
route Of the Merryconeag until that boat
has been put in shape again to do bust
ness. The Sprague is smaller than the
Merryconeag but will carry as much
cargo, being built especially for freigh
boat The sheds are full of freight and
the steamer is badly needed to relieve the
pressure of this eastern business that is
accommodating
Mr.. George A. Hartford, the well known
shipwright, is to move from his present
quarters to a building nearer the end of
Custom House wharf.
The bark S. III. Nickerson bound to this
port was spoken on Wednesday afternoon
by the tug Belknap off the Cape The
captain did not desire to be lowed into
the harbor and on account of the stormy
weather could not get in. The bark has
not since been sighted.
Mr.. Albert Sterling, the engineer of the
steamer Phantom, has accepted a similar
position on the Merryconeag and will
commence his duties as soon as the steam
er comes to the railway and resumes her
trips east. 1t has not yet been decided
who will fill the place of engineer on the
Phantom.

NEW STEAMBOAT LINE 70 PEAKS.
New Boat Which Will Soon Arrive

.. The Casco Bay Steamboat company
which has usually had a monopoly of the
passenger traffic between Portland and
the islands is to have a rival line to run
against this summer. Several Boston
parties have been looking into the feast
bility of establishing steamboat line be-
tween Portland and Peaks island and the
result has been the purchase of steam
boat at Buffalo, N. Y. Yesterday Captain
John Berry went to Buffalo to bring the
new steamboat around to Portland, and
she will probably arrive here in time to
go on the island route June first. The
new steamboat is called the Island Belle
and is comparatively new boat, having
been built in 1898. She is SO feet long, 10
feet beam and 17.5 feet deep. Her tonnage
is 153, and she has the capacity for carry
ing 400 passengers.
1t is understood that the new steamboat
cost $500. Her landing place in Portland
will be at Portland Pier, and she will
make half hour trips to the island during
the summer months. The fare to the
island will be five cents.
