LIQUOR SEIZURES FROM THE PERSON
Among the liquor seizures made by the deputy
sheriffs yesterday was one from the person of
George Brown, an old offender who keeps
shop at No, 80 Temple street. He opened this
shop OR saloon about month ago and the eff
GERS have been there a number of times, but
have been unsuccessful in finding any liquor.
he most always having guard on duty at the
door to inform him of their approach, thus Civ
ing stme to secrete it. When they went
there yesterday forenoon they had good reason
from his appearance to suspect that his imme-
date stock was in his pockets and they so in
formed him, and further Informed him that
the warrant they were armed with read ag ,inst
his person as well as his shop. He was told
that he could deliver up to them any liquor he
might have,or go with them TO the station. He
then demanded of them TO show their warrant,
which they did, and, after looking at it, he
went with them. On reaching the police sta
ton he was searched and two pint BOTTLES Of
whiskey and one of rum were found in his
pockets. He thereupon demanded hearing,
and the judge was sent for and one was had,
the result of which was that he was declared
guilty and the usual fine was imposed, which,
later in the day, he paid.

Mr.. Milton Mobiles, whose "Carro'l Graves
in ''The Phoenix" gave SO much pleasure last
season, appeared at the Portland Theatre last
night in his new play, ga Man of the People, %
The play certainly will never be passed upon
the public as drama, just brought to light, Of
any OF the famous playwrghts, and is strongly
suggestive of the serials in which patrons of
the weekly story papers delight Unlike them,
however, it has much humor and some wit,
and moreover enjoys the greatest of all advan-
'ages, that OF Interpretation by genius 1t
was Swift that could write entertainingly about
broom-stick. Something like that may be
said OF Mr.. Mobiles. He takes an extravagant
and improbable play, and by the force and
skill of his Interpretation, makes his audiences
forget or induces them to pardon Its absurdities
and trivialities. Napoleon insisted that all
things are possible. Milton Mobiles sees the
French emperor and goes him one better. He
makes all things probable. As given by him
Jack RYDER is not only a most amusing, but
natural and consistent character. III
enists the sympathies Of the spectators
at the start, and they follow his
fortunes with unfagging interest to the time
when the curtain falls upon bis assured success.
The impersonation is given with strength and
delicscy and genuine humor. The assumption
certainly gives the actor a place among the
first of American comedians. We might re-
greet that so great talent is bestowed upon a
creation of small msfit, but We are 20 pleased
by the great ability of the actor that we scarce
ly notice the inferiority of the material with
which he has to do, or wonder the more at his
success. The hardest of all tasks was that set
to the bondmen of the Egyptians, to make
bricks without straw.
The play certsinly is as good as many Of far
higher pretensious, and its leading character is
presented with grace and humor that our
best actors might envy. 1t is to be regretted
that Mr.. Mobiles will appear in "a Man of the
People" only once more in this city-at The
matinee to-day. But 1.-THE Phoenix is to be
presented this evening, and 10 that play he
assumes the character in which he has made
his reputation. The occasion is one that
