SLKwRENon, Kan. Aug. 24.-On the morning

were massacred and S160.000 worth Of prop
erty was destroyed. Three years ago Q mon

fenceless, fell victims to the ferooity OF border
guerrillAs. led by h einfamous Quantren. Aug.
n. 1853"
The thirty-hfth anniversary Of the massa-
GRE was observed informally by some OF those
who were witnesses of:the horrors that oc-
CURED between the hours Of 4 and 8 O'Clock In
the morning. Nearly every year since the
massacre somebody has started the story that
Quantrell was alive. It.came up again ut this
anniversary. \. W. Read OF this city says he
received O letter eight years z o from one OF
Quantrell's men. In which the writer offered,
for q consideration Of 5000. TO show that
Quantrell was teaching school at that time In
an ARIZONA town. Read conferred with citi-
zens. who authorised III to pledge $4,000
from the town II the informant would give the
information. Pending negotiations the Arizona
correspondent died. Read thinks that Guam

MAVERICK IN THE WAR.

The Standard Oil company's big steam
er Maverick arrived here yesterday morn
ing, and proceeded at once to the kerosene
works to discharge part of her cargo.
The Maverick, at the beginning of the
war, was put into government servics
as a water hoa5 at Cuba and at Porto
Rico. AS soon as peace was declared.
Gen. Miles ordered her to st. Thomas.
From thence she went to Philadelphia,
and on the Sth of this month she was
loaded with coal and ready for action.
She left Philadelphia on the 9th with
barge in tow, and proceeded to jackson
yille Fla. She towed the barge to VIII
mington, N. c., and at Charleston, S.
c., he took two barges which she towed
to Baltimore. at Jacksonville she took
loaded barge in tow and, with this and
her own cargo of oil, proceeded to New
York, where she left the barge, and took
two others with her to Boston. She then
came on to Portland. On her way here
the only thing she sighted was brig
which had gone ashore below Chatham.
The Maverick, since the outbreak of

water on board different steamers at
Porto Rico She has ten large tanks, each
of which has capacity Of 1000 barrels;
SO that she is capable Of carrying 10000
barrels of oil or water at a trip. OF her
present cargo she left 1900 barrels here,
discharging that amount in about two
and one half hours; she will go from here
to Bangor, where she will discharge the
remaining 5000 barrels.
The sailors on board the Maverick
talked very entertainingly to the reporter
concerning Porto Rico, It's splendid seem
cry and beautiful women; but they were
much less enthusiastic in their praise of
the food they had while there. Said one
of them: "There are GONE of the finest
looking cattle in Porto Rico that ever
saw anywhere; but when it came to eat
ing beef steak-why, the meat was so
tough you couldn't cut the gravy. The
tomatoes at Ponce were the meanest I
ever saw. They were about the size of
small crabapples, and tasted no more like
those we get here than these taste like
lemons. We had plenty of fruit of all
kinds. but one sickens of them. On the
whole. / prefer New England to either
Cuba or Porto Rico," and this seemed
to be the general opinion among the men.
The Maverick sailed for Bangor in the
afternoon.

KNIGHTS OF PYTHlAs.
What Will Be Done at the Annual Field
Day.

Gen. Wesley G. Smith, brigade com
mander of the Maine Uniform Rank,
knights of Pythias, will this week issue
general orders in relation to the Pythian
field day, to be held at Bangor, Oct. s
and g.
The date is considerably later than the
time usually selected for this annual gath
ering, and whether the attendance will
be as large as if. an earlier date had been
selected is only a matter of conjecture.
The Supreme Commandery session at In
dianapolis, which was attended by several
OF the Maine Pythian officers, occurred
late in August, and the Maine field day
could not very we'll have been called
sarlier than that. On account of the
numerous fairs and other attractions
throughout the State in September, it
was deemed advisable not to hold the field
day till October.
Commander Smith says that indications
the Uniformed Pythians of Maine.
Lewis A. Barker company of Bangor has
the arrangements in charge. The parade
will occur Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 5,
starting st 2.30. At $50 an election of
major of the end battalion, 1st regiment.
will be held at regimental headquarters,
and at the same time an election OF lieu
tenant colonel and major of the end bat
TALON, End regiment, at headquarters of
the End regiment. A special assembly of
the Uniform Rank will be held at bril-
gade headquarters at Z p. m.
Wednesday evening will be devoted to
various amusements. The local commit
tee is arranging for a theatre party at the
Bangor opera house to witness the pro-
duction of Rice's "Ballet Girl" On
Thursday the Sir Knights will go on an
excursion to Camp Benson, on Newport
Lake. During the day the regimental
Lands will give concerts, dress parades
will take place, and boating. fishing and
various sports will be in order.
Reduced fares have been obtained on all
transportation lines and 50 day rate
secured at the Bangor hotels.

talked very abusing to her. Miss Lang s
testimony was corroborated by that OF a

STRUCK A SNAG-MORE PERSECU-
TON.
To the Editor of the Press:

TIoN.
To the Editor of the Press:
The gang of men running the pole line
from Great Falls to Portland for the
Cumberland Illuminating Company had
call down from the Deering street
commissioner Thursday, SO work was
stopped and thus one more blowis struck
at this enterprise that is trying so hard
to do good turn for the community.
About one month ago Mr.. George W.
Brown, manager of the company, in COM
paay with Mr.. O. w. Neal called upon
Mayor Moulton and requested locations
for poles, where permission had, already
been granted, and the mayor told him to
go to the street commissioner and city
engineer and they would arrange it.
This was done and direction was given to
stake out line where poles were desired
and on the Friday following at s a. m.
they would 60 over the ground and if
satisfactory accept the locations. This
WAS done and all of the locations on
Riverside street and Forest Avenue were
corrected and approved. Now, after
weeks have elapsed and the current from
Great Falls has been promised by Octo
Der LIST, halt is called and the enemies
of progress and prosperity have scored
another temporary victory. Any foreign
company can have just what they want
but home company has little show.
The Westbrook Electric Light Company
has poles on streets for which no petition
has ever been made. What does it mean
that this home company should be SO
shabby treated? Who are the instiga-
tors and what are they working for9
This is what the people are asking and
the people will be heard from later
Now we understand the game is for the
electric light interests of Portland to get
in their work over the shoulders of the
Portland Railroad Company. Would
you think it?
