The Ticket Completed.

Last evening the republicans of
Ellsworth met in caucus and renomi-
mated F. Carroll Burrill for represen-
tative to the legislature.
This was the last Of the representa-
tive caucuses to be held in Hancock
county, and completes the ticket. A
full list of nominations State, county
and representative distriets-to be
voted for on Monday, Sept. s. may be
found at the head Of this column.
From top to bottom it is a list that
deserves aud we do ubt not will, re-
ceive the individual support of Han
cock county republicans. Many on
the list are already public servants,
tried aud true; men who have ad-
ministered their public trust with
fidelity and ability; men who can be
counted on to continue their work in
the same satisfactory manner.
Loyalty to party in town, city and
county should be the slogan in the
short, sharp, and, we trust, decisive
contest that is about to be waged.

A NOBLE ACT.
What an Ellsworth Captain Did to
Help Relieve Suffering.

What an Ellsworth Captain Did to
Help Relieve Suffering.
The characteristic modesty of Capt. j..
Atwood Bowden, OF the schooaef "wilIie
l.. MAXWELL, prevented him from making
known in detail certain acts OF his at the
time OF the terrible volcanic eruption st
st. Vincent last May.
The story, however, has at last leaked
out, and Is as follows;
Another instance OF American bravery
and heroism has been furnished by an
American skipper-capt. J. Atwood
Bowden, OF the schooner "wnlie l..
Maxwell, which arrived at Philadelphis
from Barbados few weeks ago. The
veteran sailor, with characteristics mod
esty, made no report OF bis heroic action
and that OF bis crew In volunteering to
go 10 the relief OF the Inhabitants OF the
island OF st. Vincent during the volcanic
eruption which occurred In that island
on May 7 last.
The story leaked out recently when
Capt. Bowden received an engroesed
parchment testimonial from the English
board OF trade acknowledging his heroic
Efforts to aid the nhabitants OF the island
in the face OF almost certain death and
the loss Of hts vessel.
On that day the "Wiliic L. Maxwell"
was lying In the hsrhor OF Barbados, when
word came OF the almost absolute desti-
tuition Of the residents OF st. Nincont,
which was being destroyed by IRE aud
lava from the volcano.
Appeals were made to captains OF YES.
sells OF almost every nationality lying la
he harbor, but all refused until Capt.
Bowden stepped to the front and offered
the services OF himself, his crew and the
schooner to take provisions and clothing
to the destitute people. He fully realized
that be would have 10 sail into st. Vim
cent under rain OF FIRE and laws, but did
not hesitate.
The schooner was loaded. and about TO
sail, when British msn-of-war entered
Barbados, the commander of which called
on Capt. Bowden, and after praisipR him
| highly for his bravery, persuaded him 10
transfer the vessels cargo to the war
ship, which the skipper only consented to
do on Il being represented to him that the
warship could carry the orgentiy-necdrd
relief much quicker, being q steam vessel,
than could be done by the trim Yankee
schooner.
The British naval officers, 10 spprecia-
tion OF Capt. Bowdcn's bravery, reported
bis plneky efforts to the British govern
ment. which forwarded to him the tes-
timonial OF which be and his men are 50
Justly proud.
The "Msxwciip was formerly one o;
John r. Gordon's famous heet OF three
masters. A recent change In ownership
has again placed Capt. Bowden in com
msnd, be having been for short time
displaced, owing to differences between
him and some OF the former owners.
