superiority of the Spanish fleet over the

A NARROW ESCAPE.

r. e. Butler and W. E. Wade, recently
discharged from the First regiment OF
United States volunteers, went to the
Portland Tavern on Friday night and
took room, leaving the hotel immedi.
ately. At about 8 30 they came back to
the hotel and retired. They were sober
and in every way in good condition.
Later, Manager Webb smelt gas and on
examination found that the man who o.
cupied the room next to theirs had gone
out and left the gas turned on. The gas
was turned off but the odor did not pass
away. Again an examination was made
and gas was discovered escaping in the
room of Messrs. Butler and Wade. DR..
Way was summoned and succeeded i'll re-
storing the men after great effort.

now ABOUT THIS CAsEs

To the Editor of the Press:
IN the Sunday Times appears an article
headed "Reward Worth VIM ng,'' in
which government official is quoted as
king exception to the statement that
no reward is offered for the detection of
burglars. 1t so happens that case in
point ia before ne. When the police force
of Deering ran down the Carrier-Carron
gang two years ago they had burglarized
the postotfice at Buxton. The postmaster
Of that town came to Deering and iden-
tilted goods stolen from his store. The
case was brought to the attention of Dis
trict Attorney Bradbury at the time, but
little attention was paid to it, and the
officers received no reward from the gov
ernment, although the ii ne spent by
them amounted to quite a sum The
County of Cum berland and city of Deer
ing paid the expense, and sent the burg :
lar 10 Ihomaston. The officers captured
and convicted these men, but they never
got any reward from the government, al
though they asked for it.

Johann Hoff's Malt Extract is natures

Suffering from an attack of illness
which had not only reduced my strength
but brought on extreme exhaustion from
inability to appropriate food, tried
the effect of Johann Hoff's Malt Extract
in the usual dose of a wineglassful twice
or three times day. Its use was fol
lowed by marked effects: CD. Food
which had hitherto been found to pass
the alimentary canal unchanged, diges-

increased power of evolving animal
