There are several available and desirs-
BILE locations, but the one that seemed to
hsve the most following was the lot In
rear of All Souls Universalist church.
1t has been suggested that second
story bs built over the prt SAINT dining
hall, as IL would be easy Of access fer
both boys and girls, but there are objec-
tions to this location from the fact that
SO many windows would be dsrkened
by Its sr elton. The lot between Alum-
nj hall and College street has also besn
s;ok su OF, tbs building, II erected here,
TO face Stevens avenue.
Stln another location that has been
talked OF is on the lot known as the
Pierce lot In rear of hersey hall. The
building will very likely be Of brick.

LINCOLN CLUB BANQUET.

The officers of the Lincoln club are
planning for the annual banquet which
will be held on the evening OF February
18th. President Virgin expects that this
will bs one Of the best tanqusts that has
ever boon held In the ten years history
Of the organization.
1t Is probable that the list of speakers
will include Congressman Allen and
Littleiield of this state, and Congressman
Charles b. Lands, who has for several
yfars been the representa- of one of
the districts of Indiana. Last year he
accepted the invitation of the club to at
tend. but 1t will be remembered that
be was among the many people who were
ton while en- routs to this city. Congress
man Lands therefore, was obliged to In.
definitely postpone bis tip to Portland.
he writes President Virgin that he has
already received no less than 10 invita-
lions to speak at Republican gatherings
which will be held ON tho next ami
versAry of Lincoln's birth, bus also adds
that the Lincoln club of this city has,
he supposes, first claim to his feryices.
The indiana Congressman will make his
decision within few days.
Gov. Powers will be one of the speakers
as will also ex-Gov. Clssves.
The banquet will be held at the rooms
Of the club in Monument square.

Water Started a nlaze in the Hold
Al Sea.
Captain Ran Vessel On
Great Diamond Ledge.
And After Stripping Her Left
Her To Her Fate.

Schooner Henry N. Squire, Captain
Drinkwat.r, bound from Rookland to
New York, with 1900 casks OF lime. ar
rived here Wednesday morning with her
c,rzo on fire, and was run ashore On
Diamond Island ledge
Captain Drink wstt + Gays that ut eleven
O'Clock Tuesday niSht, when he wns on
b lon island, the scat o l,r began to leak
anl tbs water set fire to tee cargo. The
fire was discovered wren smoks began to
break through the partitions AMI come
into the after cabin.
As soon as the fire was discovered the
vessel was put about and headed towards
Portland, before the wind Then the
captain broke open several casks OF lime
from which u cement was made, with
which an attempt was made to stop up
the leaks, but with out avail. Three or
four Of the crew brr1sd their hands
severely while engaged In trying to put
out tha fire.
At midnight one hour after the fire
was discovered. the fire had gained such
head way that the boat was got ready, in
order that the crew might be able to
lsase the vessel at moments notice.
The captain says that II they had been
forced to take to the boat they could net
have lived very long in the heavy sen and
the bitter cold.
When the schooner got to Portland she
was at once run on the Diamond Island
ledge, where the captains o. several coast
ing vessels offered their assistance, having
seen the flag at half mast in the main
rigging. The fire boat ana several tugs
also went down.
The steam lighter Leviathan went
down aud ucc.edsd In saving about one
hundred CASKS of lime from the deck Of
the schooner. The Squire will he total
less She was owned by Perry Brothers
Of Rocsland, and the cargo was con-
signed to Ferry brothers, New York.
The schooner was valued at about 5000.
1hsre YVES no insurance on her. The
cargo was valued at about $500. and the
captain thinks that there was an insur-
ance with the Lime Dealers association,
of Rockland. 1hs schooner was built in
1867. at Port jeff rson, N. Y. Her home
pert was Boston. She was 26S tons
burden, net.
The tire toat was on hand early, but
found that her streams simply made mat
tiers worse and prevented tins crew from
stripping the schooner. SO the tire boat
sailed away and left the schooner TO her
fate, as nothing could be done to save
her. Captain DennGt5 Of the revenue cut.
ter Woodbury. also offered the assistance
of his crew, but as nothing could be done
at that time the schooner was simply
stripped of everything movable and lett
20 burn up.
