In MEMoRIAM-Died in Buxton, Feb. 25th,
Jonathan G. Lewis, aged 90 years months and
days. Mr.. Lewis was born in Groton, Mass,
May %, 1778, was an associate of the Lawrence
family and school-mate of Hon. Amos A.
Lawrence in the Groton Academy. Some forty
years of his earlier life were spent in Massa-
chusetts, when he moved to Buxton, Me-, where
he has lived for more than half a century. He
was the first and only person who has held the
Office of Postmaster at Buxton Center. The
Office was created and he received his appoint
ment April 10, 1926, and though he has never
changed his politics except to swing round with
the old Wing party on to Republican lines, still
he retained his Office up to the day of his death,
and when he died was probably the oldest Post
master in the State if not in the country. He
has lived to a good old age and out lived all of
his boyhood associates except twin sister, who
still fingers on the shores of time to mourn over
the death of much loved brother

The PILGRM.-These beautiful paintings, il
Illustrating the famous dream eff John Bunyan,
were unrolled before large audience at Music
Hall last evening, and the demonstrations of
approval were frequent and hearty. These
paintings are the work of eminent artists and
illustrate in vivid and truthful manner the
immortal work of Bunyan which has been so
carefully read in all parts of the civilized world
Among the more prominent pictures were the
"Wicket Gate" the Golden Crown and Muck
Raker,' the palace Beautiful" and the
Knight of the Cross" The entertainment
closed with grand transformation scene rep
resenting the passage of the river of death, the
shower of gold, the Celestial City, the aseen-
sion and the entrance of the Pilgrims into the
presence of their Lord. This scene in regal
grandeur and magnifcencei is absolutely beyond
description and must be seen to be appreciated.
The descriptive lecture and the vocal and in
strumental music added greatly to the interest
of the exhibition. The paintings will be ex-
hibited every evening of the present week and
also on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons for
the benefit of ladies and children. AS work
of art this entertainment is eminently worthy
of the most liberal patronage, while the lessons
derived from it must invariably be good.

THE PRINCE OF WALES THANKsGIvING-IM-
MENsE PREPARATIONS.
LONDON, Feb 26-Midnight- army of
workmen were engaged tonight in completing
the preparations for the thanksgiving eelebra-
ton tomorrow. Much has yet to be done for
decoration of the streets through which the
procession is TO pass, as the work is being car
ried out on colossal scale. Dense crowds of
people are collected in the street corners wit
Messing the preparations, and at some of the
principal points of attraction the pressure is so
great that several persons were injured, and it
is reported two were crushed to death. The po-
lice are making every effort to prevent acct
dents and keep the spectators from interfering
with the workmen, who can hardly finish their
labors before the hour for starting the process
sion. The city for the past two weeks has been
filling up with strangers, and is now overflow
ing. The railway trains yesterday and to-day,
although doubled and trebled in number and
length on all the lines, have been crowded with
passengers. The suburban population are pour
ing in at every avenue, and it is estimated that
tomorrow 100000 human beings will be tenn
porarily added to the population of London.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 26.-Steamer Montana
arrived to-day from Guaymas and Lapose-
Dispatches from GuTymos report the capture
believed incorrect. The Montana did not touch
at Mazattan and the last authentic reports say
Besquira had defeated the revolutionsts under
Morquez at Mocordo in Sinaloa, but advancing
the next day, was deserted by portion of his
force comprising the late revolted garrison of
Mazattan. He was still fighting the Morcri
rebsl forces and was compelled to fall back to
Morcordo to await reinforcements. The death
of Porforio Diaz is regarded here as the death
blow to the rebellion. -.
