THE MUsEUM.-The historical tragedy of
"Ambtion," with Mr.. Proctor as Ethelwood,
Earl of Derby, was witnessed by a large audi
ence last evening. The plot of this play hinges
upon the marriage of King Henry VIII with
Catherine Howard, and may be briefly outlined
as follows: Henry VIII having rid himself of
Anne Boeyn, casts about fer new wife, and
with his usual perverseness to established Gus.
toms, selects Catherine Howard of humble
origin. He discovers his love to Ethelwood,
Earl Of Derby, and asks his aid in furthering
his designs. Ethelwood is already secretly
married to Catherine. To thwart the king he
calls to his aid an alchemist, who furnishes a
drug that will destroy all signs of life. This
Ethelwood administers to Catherine. The
second act is occupied with the funeral service
of Catherine at the tomb, her friends suppos-
ing her dead, and her final awaking. Ethel
wood is forced to tell her why he used the
drug. She learns of the Kings love for her,
and at once her ambition for power and splen-
dor begins to overshadow her love for the
Duke. In the third act we find Fleetwood at
his palace with his bride in secret. Here the
King visits the Duke and wishes him to marry
his sister, the Princess Margaret, who loves
him. Ethelwood refuses and the King contis-
Gates his estates. The Duke, to eude the King,
takes similar potion to the one he gave
Catherine. News of his supposed death is
borne to the King, also one key to his tomb,
while Catherine holds the other. Catherine
makes her way to the King and reveals herself
to him. His former passion is rekinded and
he offers to make her Queen. She throws the
key of Ethelwood's tomb into the Thames,
thinking thus to seal his death. The key that
is carried to the King falls into the hands of
Princess Margaret, who releases Ethelwood
when he awakens from the stupor of the drug
Ethelwood steals his way to the chamber of
the new Queen, and his presence there is dis
covered by the King. This supposed treachery
leads to GATHERINGS execution, which takes
place at the end of the fourth act.
Mr. Proctor was at his best last evening. His
interview with the King in the third act, when
the latter declares his estates confscated and
himself no longer peer, was very fine and
called forth merited applause, as indeed he did
throughout the play. Miss Cameron's acting
was admirably Sustained, and especially in the
tomb scene of the second act did she do herself
credit Mr.. Waldron performed the part of
King Henry VIII. with fine effect, and Mr.
Curtis as the champion Of liberty and ''the
man who paid taxes relieved the seriousness
of the play very pleasantly. Indeed, the sup
port throughout was good. Those who dislike
tragedy will not find enough blood in this to
shock their nerves, and those who are fond of
the sober element ought to be satisfied. This
play will be repeated this evening and deserves
full house.

IN MEMoRIAM. following notice of Mr.
George W. Beal, native of this city, who re-
Gently died at Santa Barbara, CAL, appears in
a paper published ia that town:
George W. Beal was born in Portland, Maine,
MAY 18th, 1925, and died in Santa Barbara Feb.
ruary 9th, 1876, aged nearly fifty years. More
than a'quarter of a century ago be united with
the Methodist Episcopal Church.. in which
communion he continued until death. His
aged mother, who still fingers, was one of the
four who established the first Methodist society
in Portland Maine. In 1852 he was united IN
marriage to his present bereaved widow. -Four
childten survive. Mr. Bea was connected, as
volunteer, with the Union army in the late
war, serving faithfully until declining health
compelled him to retire from military life He
was made Master Mason in Portland, seven
teen years ago to day, and in that fraternity,
both in the Blue Lodge and in the Chapter, be
was shining light. While much, very much,
may be said in favor of our deceased brother,
u IS sufhcient to say that he was Christian
gentleman and died trusting in Christ, the Sa-
vlour OF man. He rests from his labors and
his works do follow him,
