crowning point of the Dowdoin college ex
pedition was reached September 1 , by the re
turn of the party sent out to discover the
truth of the legendary acounts of the
G million falls. The four men , all graduates
of tbo college , headed by Mr. Austin Carey ,
left their schooner on Sunda" , July 'M.
On August 8 they reached a point flvo
miles In advance of the furthest point
reached by Mr. Holrao in 1883. At this point ,
on account of n disabled arm , Mr. Young and
n companion were obliged to turu back ,
reaching UIgolet on August 21.
Messrs. Carey and Cole proceeded towards
the falls , which had been reported to bo dis
tant fifty miles. On August 13 , after n thrco
dn.vs" tramp , tholr labors were rewarded by
a deafening roar in the distance. Their
provisions wore now nearly gene , stores
having boon oxnaustod on the way
up , but they pushed resolutely
on the height of the plateau called "Tho
Height of Land. " It Is this plateau which is
tno source of the stream and the descent of
the nvor to the sea forms the falls nnd rap
ids. The spray of the falls was visible for
twenty miles. From the falls the water
Hews through a canyon formed of nrcbojan
rocir , the siaos of which rise to a height of
500 feet nnd are heavily wooded at the top.
The height of the falls has been grossly
exaggerated , and whllo presenting a grand
nnd hoautlful sight , measure only 200 foot In
n perpendicular fall , the rapids leading to
this fall Increasing the total altitude of the
falls to 500 foot. Above the falls the average
width of the river is 500 yards , narrowing
until it reaches the falls , to a width of only
fifty yards , when it plunges over the rapids
and falls in a narrow gorge bolow.
Mr. Cole descended to tho-foot of the falls
nnd succeeded in obtaining some good photo
graphs of them. Having completed the ob
servations of the falls they Kept on a few
miles above "Tho Height of Land , " where
from n peak , christened by them "Mount
Hydo-Bowdoln , " they had a line perspective
of the surrounding country.
At this point , their provisions hoing all
gene , they sot out for a return. On reaching
the spot where they had loft their boat they
found that the camp tire which they had built
had consumed tno boat , and with
it their wliolo stoclc of pro
visions nnd a gun. Their position
wis now BOinowhat critical. Three hundred
miles on a river heretofore unexplored , with
no heat , no help and no provisions until they
should reach their first cache , the outlook
was ono to blanch till hut the stoutest hearts.
They sot Bravely to work , however , nnd
with a small hatchet for their only implement
constructed a small raft , binding the logs to
gether with spruce roots.
On rafts maao in this way they travoraed
the throe hundred odd miles to the mouth of
the river , enduring the greatest hardships.
Their only weapon wns a small revolver ,
with which tnoy shot a few squirrels mak
ing a rceal on ono such animal. On the
way down five different rafts wore con
structed , the making of which in their
wasted , condition consumed a great amount
of time and energy. They reached the
vessel September 5 , receiving a royal wel
come from their friends.
Tbo falls which they have discovered nro
reported to have been seen by two employees
of the Hudson Bay company , but no authen
tic account of any such discovery hai been
given.
The successful result of the expedition is
duo wholly to the heroic efforts of Messrs.
'
Carey an'd O lc , and Bowdoln col'ego may
well ho congratulated by her sister colleges
for the addition which aho has made to the
heretofore scant knowledge of the geography
of Labrador.

the day away from homo , returning Monday.
They drank water from the Ice cooler and

They did not suspect poisoning , however ,
nnd'medical assistance relieved them. Tues
day they ate some cakes made from mixed

Bci : . | The republican campaign In thU state
Is now in full swing. Senator Allison , Con
gressman Henderson , ox-Govornor Gear and
other narty wheel horses are actively engaged
in preaching the true political gospel to the
people nnd reports show that they are doing
much good. 13oth Senator Allison aud the
others are very sangulno and do not hosltato
to predict a republican majority this fall of
from CO.OOU to 23,000 ; The state central com
mittee has Introduced a feature this year
which gives the campaign largely the character -
actor of a still hunt. Heretofore It has bcon
customary to publish a full list of the speak-
01-3 and tholr meetings In the principal papers
of the state. Nothing of that kind is being
done this year. Instead , the committee keeps
the list n secret and localities are notified
that a speaker Is coming in tlmo to permit of
atnplo local advertisement of the fact. The
rest of tbo stnto will remain in ignorance of
what is going on until after the meetings
toke place nnd reports of them are made
through correspondents.
In this way tne state committee believes it
can keep the democratic committees in the
dark as to their plun of campaign nnd pre
vent in a irro.it degree democratic speakers
from taking advantage of largo crowds at
tracted by republican speakers. Jealousies
of rival cities will also bo largely avoided and
the committee saved much Minoyanco on
that scoro. This is a thorough Innovation
over former methods , and tho.results will bo
watched with interest. The democratic
party is pursuing o similar course. The

Attorney General Stone has rendered a
decision in which ho holds that a county
ofllccr wlio obtains employment and lives
outside of the county in which ho was elected
can not hold his office. The decision was ren
dered in a case from Greene county , the
county superintendent of which accepted the
principalship of the schools in Missouri Val
ley , Harrison county , and moved to that
place to fulfill his duties , and at the same
time bold to the county suporintondcy.
The attorney general says in part :
It Is u general principal tluit whore a man
hus two or morn places of residency or busi
ness , the question as to which of their Is tils
luzal doinloll or residence Is u question of
mixed luw nnd fact and for a Jury to decide ,
and not a purely legal question. The resi
dency of the county superintendent under the
above stiitoincnt of f.icta probably comes
under this rule. I am , however , under the Im
pression that ho has co.ised to he a resident
of the county In which the duties of Ills of
fice uro to bo exercised nnd for which ho has
been elected within the montilng of sub-dlvl-
slon ft. section 781 , of the code , and that there
fore there la u vacancy In the oflleu of county
superintendent.
The decision has bcon accepted as final nnd
the vacancy filled by appointment.

BEII.I At a special session of the city council
Friday night an attempt was made to suspend
John Pilgrim , city marshal nnd chief of
police , for alleged neglect of official duties.
This charge was brought against the marshal
some days ago by a local prohibition league ,
anu on the information ho was arrested by
the sheriff and fined $10 in tbo superior court.
It was supposed the league bad secured the
necessary two-thirds majority of the council
to oust the marshal , but on a vote the coun
cil only ordered an Investigation of his ofil-
clal acts , nnd Pilgrim still holds the fort.
Public interest runs high m this matter
inasmuch as tbo marshal nnd the police force
have been acting under the instructions of
Mayor Dorr , who was elected to ofllco by
those fa coring police control of tbo saloons in
the shape of monthly fines. II the marshal is
suspended from ofllco it is said the league
will begin impeachment proceedings against
the mayor. The league has tukon this stop
after having made several unsuccessful at
tempts to close the joints by bringing suits
against their owuora. The costs In liquor
prosecutions during the past six mouths have
already amounted to over S'J.OUO , with a
council investigation and thlrtv-llvo liquor

A bold attempt was niado to blow open the
safe In Hamilton & Stecld'a packing house
meat market , Twenty-fourth nnd N streets ,
about 1 o'clock yesterday morning.
Several men , returning from a dance In
Albright , were passing , along the north sldo
of Twenty-fourth street/when / they suddenly
saw a flash through thojwhldows of the meat
market , followed by n loud roport. Hurrying
across the street they saw three men making
a hasty exit through tbo roar door.
The police were Immediately notified and
gave choso. After n long run Captain O'Haro
and Ofllcor Hughes succeeded In capturing
nil thrco several blocks from the scone of the
attempted burglary.
The explosion nnd commotion incident
thereto had by this time aroused the neigh
borhood , and nn examination of the store
showed that tbo cracksmen had entered by a
roar door by cutting out the lock. They then
bored a hole above the combination and put
In a charge of powder , thinking to blow out
the bolts. Tholr plan miscarried , however ,
owing no doubt to the scanty charge inserted.
Very little damage was done the safe , nnd
the cracksmen were compelled to decamp
empty handed.
About the floor were scattered n oinco
without a bit , a powder llask , a common car
penter's chisel , n four pound siodgo hammer
and the other tools that go to make up n
burglar's kit. In the alloy at the roar of the
store was also found a light coloicd spring
overcoat belonging to ono of the safe blowers.
When taken to the station the prisoners
gave their names as Chris Mnrkaaon , u
Swede laborer , Lewis Burnett and Jim Law-
son. In the search nothing was found upon
thorn.
Markason was recognized by the ofllcers ns
the man who Issued from the alloy juit ns
the ( ifllcora arrived on the scene , and tried to
engage them in conversation in order to glvo
his pals lmo to make their escape. The
police nro sure they hnvo bagged the right
men. Judge King will try them this morn
ing on the charpo of safe blowing ,
ilnd the burglors been : .uccessful in tholr
attempt , Messrs. Hamilton ft Stcelo would
have been out some $700 , which had just been
placed there that evening to bo banked this
morning. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

nnd been secretly married a few days

Dutch Hill nnd the gang wont for that young
Benedict In great shnpo. They grabbed him ,
got him down nnd held him there until ho

In order to save his clothes from being torn
