SUNDAY evening free and noisy fight took
place in the house of one Conley, on Washing
ton street, near Oxford and officer Libby burst
in the door and went in for the purpose OF
quoting the disturbance, when fellow whose
name is suppressed for the present, made an
attack on Libby with large butcher knife
Libby disarmed him and took him into custo-
dy, but the crowd rushed on him, rescued the
rufian and let him run. Libby followed the
man, and chased him up on Munjoy, with the
crowd of roughs hooting and yelling at his
heels, and throwing stones. In cutting "across
lots" from Cumberland to Congress street,
above Washington, a brick struck the officer
on the he ad, cutting an ugly wound and for
while putting him hors du combat. Word was
sent to the office for help and Deputies Ster-
ling and. Decelle went to Washington street.
Up under the sand bank crowd Of men had
grouped whom the officers we're told were the
rioters MIR. Sterling got his eye ON one man
who appeared to be one of the leaders, who was
trying to skulk off, and he gave him chase, fol-
lowing him down to the rear of the Jail, where
he captured him. He fired three shots of his
revolver at him, but his aim was not very
steady, as he was running, and none of them
took effect. His name is Martin Holland,
teamster in the employment of Randall, Nc
Allister & Co., coal Dealers Officer Decele
was cut across the face by coming in contact
with clothes line as he was in pursuit of one

PORTLAND THEATRE.-The theatre was
packed to OVERLOOKING on Saturday night to
witness the performance of the ''French Spy''
with Miss Fanny Herring in the character
that Madame Celeste introd uced and which has
been favorite with many ofou American &C.
tresses since her day. Miss Herring showed
herself no whit behind the long line that en-
braces Lucille Western. Kate Fisher, Sallie
st. Clair, and at least dozen others in panto-
mimic ability, grace and fitness of movement
and fine figure. In the combat scene with
Mahomet (Mr. Louis Aldrich) she brought
down the house.
Tonight the legitimate reigns-Mr. Wye
man Marshall, whose name alone is tower
of strength, appears in 'Richelieu," supported

Julie de Mortemer, Miss Fanny Herring as
Francois, and Mr.. Louis Aldrich, late of the
Boston Theatre, (and favoraply known in this
city in connection with Edwin Booth) as De
Mauprat. 1t is long while since our theatre

that they secure their tickets during the day to

Mary WsedI,ury.

The venerable Mary Woodbury., relict OF the
late VIM. Woodbury., Esq, of this city, died at
her residence on franklin street Saturday,
September 18th, at the advanced age of ninety
two years and eight months. She was the
daughter Of William Hoole, whose father
Thomas Hoole came over to this country from
the Isle of Man in the early part of the 18th
century, at the age Of Is years, and settled in
Marblehead In 1926 be married Sarah Eos
ter, by whom he had six chldren-three sons
and three daughters. William, the Youngest
OF the children, and father of Mary, married
for bis flrst wife Mary Hammond, and resided
for while in Chelsea, Mass. After the death
oil his irst wife he removed to Falmouth, now
Portland, and married Hannah Hatch, by
whom he had nine children-Wilam,T Thomas,
Mary, Hannah, John, Joseph, Hannah, (the
first one Of this name having ded,) Ezekiel
and Sarah, of whom Sarah alone survives
MANY persons are now living who have trans
acted business with two OF the sous, and who
well remember the firm of j. 81 E. Hoole, who
did very large business in this city. AT the
time of the burning Of Falmouth by Mowatt,
Capt Hoole resided at the corner of India and
Federal streets. His house was the second
building burned.
Mary, the subject of this memoir, was born
January 6, 1878. In 1897 she married Capt
William Woodbury.. 1t was union of hearts,
as well as hands and the affectionate couple
lived together in the most happy manner for
the long period of sixty foul years until April,
1861, when death removed her husband from
her side. She was the mother of seven chill
dren, four OF whom survive. The great fire Of
July 4, 1866, swept away the old family man
sion; but the care and tenderness of her chill
dren soon supplied a more commodous man
sion for her on the old family lot, where she
spent her last days in peace and happiness
Mrs. Woodbury., in addition to being kind
and affecti0nate wife and mother was a true
and sincere Christian. She joined the Second
Parish church under Rev. Dr. Payson, in 1920
and for more than half century has lived
most exemplary Christian life, worthy the
imitation of all. she retained her faculties
with remarkable clearness TO the last days of
her life, and gently sank to rest strong in the
faith of glorious resurrection. Truly may it
be said of her,
The memory of The just is blessed.
The funeral will take place at o'clock this
afternoon from the family mansion on Frank
lin street.

we heard that the Atlantic and Sebago were to
