Revival Services.

Yesterday, revival services were held at the
Gospel Mission, conducted by Rev. Homer A.
King. In the afternoon he preached from the
large chart and took three texts-Daniel III
chap 34th verse; Rom. TX 80; also John II, %
From these texts the preacher drew some very
instructive lessons for both unconverted and
saved, and at the close fourteen came to the
altar for prayers.
The evening meeting was wonderful one
even for the Mission. Long before theU hour
to commence it was impossible to obtain stand
ing room even in the vestry or hall, so that
hundreds had to leave. Mr.. King spoke from
Gen. XIV and at the close twenty came for
ward for prayers, and many backsiiders were
the seven seals of Revelations. All are invit-

RENTS MINSTRELS
Rentz's MINISTRIES drew good house at Port
land Theatre Saturday night. The company
amounted to little, having evidently lost many
of its members since it appeared in the large
cities. The acts ran in the same vein, the
singing was pretty hard, and when good note
was sounded the cornet player tried to drown
it, and the entertainment lacked life. The
best features were George and Jen Powers
and the Johnsons in their acts The best mu-
steal feature was 1.-THE Torpedo and Whale.

GRAYsoN OPERA CO.
Friday night the Grayson Opera Company
will appear at Portland Theatre in Gilbert &
Sullivans new opera Patience" Saturday
afternoon in "Olivette" and Saturday night
in "Mascotte." The company is said to en-
brace thirty-six people. The company first
produced the Mascotte in America, and the
Boston Journal said that miss Ell. E. II. Carter,
who appeared in her original role of Bettina,
sang the music of Bettina as she oSly can sing
it, making more of it than any exponent of the
role they had heard. Her pure, sweet soprano
voice seemed exactly suited to the music OF
this part. In the second act she introduced
the song of the 'Skylark,' by Benedict, and -
seats will begin Wednesday.
BARNEY M'AULEY.
ga Messenger from Jarvis Section" met
with an enthusiastic reception at the Park
Theatre, Boston. The honest, sturdy nature
of the big-hearted old farmer Uncle Dan'l,
was portrayed to the life. His quick resolu-
tions and prompt actions in positions of danger
contrasted finely with his unctuous humor in
the quieter scenes, and his pathos had the true
ring. Mr.. McAuley's fine physique is greatly
in his favor in the part, and his mobile features
and expressive eyes aid immensely in the de-
lineation of emotion. Mr.. McAuley was hon.
ored by nearly dozen calls to the footlights,
where he was summoned by the heartiest of
applause and cheers from all parts of the
house, and the curtain was called two or three
times at the close of every act. He will appear
in Portland Nov. 7th and 8th.
