DAvY CRoCKETT.-All who have read the
life of David Crockett will be anxious to see
Frank Mayo, the celebrated actor, in the play
of this name. The play is entirely different
from most plays portraying frontier life, for
there are no Indians in it. The Boston Adver-
tiser in speaking of the play: says:
Mr.. Mayo's "Davy Crockett" really deserves
both study and admiration. In it there is
something of the highest artistic feeling-per-
haps of the highest artistic power. tits good
piece of acting in hundred ways. 1t con-
stantly reaches that all-golden quality which
no single word describes. but which comes from
the actors seeming loss of self. CONSCIOUSNESS.
One could reasonably believe that the actor
was Davy Crockett, and not that he was play
ing Davy Crockett.

WASHINGTON BRAY. EsQ-Many of our
readers will be much panied to learn of the
somewhat sudden death Of Mr.. Bray, which
occurred at his residence in Naples on Satur-
day. One week before his death he was taken
down with acute bronchitis, which rapidly de-
veloped into pneumonia.
Mr.. Bray was born in Turner in this state in
1874. He was selectman for Naples for twenty
five years. for ten or fifteen years he was post
master, and for many years he had represented
his town in the Legislature. He married
Catherine, daughter of Mark Jordan, late of
Casco, and niece of Hon. Samuel Jordan of
Deering. He had accumulated large property
by habits of industry and economy He was
one of the most generous of men, and will be
sadly missed by many to whom he had always
extended the helping hand. His friends were
not confined to the town in which he lived, but
were scattered very numerously for miles
around His public services entitle him to the
respect and esteem of his whole county. Few
men have filled the offices of husband and
father more worthily than did he. Mr.. Bray
left wife and one son, Dr. G. w. Bray of this
