Inc STORM
The worst storm Of the winter in some re-
spects prevailed hers yesterday. The wind
blew at its highest at the rate of thirty-fve
miles an hour. The Boston steamers sailed
from both ports.
The Eleanora did not leave for New York
but still lies at her wharf The Falmouth ar
rived from st. John in the morning at half
past ten o'clock having been out during the
gale.
The schooner Dexter from Portland is ashore
at Long Island Boston harbor, and has
bilged.
The trains were all nearly on time.
The end of building, used to store car
riages in, on Plum street was blown out.
A heavy gust of wind blew down the avn.
ing in front of Blake's bakery on Congress
street. Mr.. Underwood, the bleacher, hap
pened to be under it at thu time. The canvas
struck him with considerable force and threw
him against the windo SO heavily that one of
the panes of glass broke, letting him into the
store bodily. It is fortunate that one of tie
supporting posts did not hit him, as in that
case he might have sustained serious injury.
The report last evening that one Of the Bos-
ton steamers was off Marblehead yesterday in
distress and that a life boat had gone to her as
sistance, was unfounded. Both the steamer
from here and the one from Boston Thursday
night made shelter from the storm in Glouces-
ter harbor. AS telegraphic communication
with Gloucester was broken the company were
unable to learn the whereabouts of tho boats
until the John Brooks arrived at Boston at 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon and reported hav-
ing left the New Brunswick in Gloucester
The boats will make their regular trips to-
night.

MUSIC AND THE DRAMA.
NOTES.

Mules.
1t is now thought that the Harvard Dramatic
Club and Glee Club will not appear at City
Hall on Fast Day as the terms were too high.
Mr.. Libby, who has charge of City Hall,
has not booked calvin Joslin," but Mr.. Frank
Curtis of Portland Theatre has for Fast Day.
Mr.. Wilhelm Mueller, the cello virtuoso,
has given to Mr.. Theodore Thomas compost
ton by his brother, Karl Mueller of Stuttgart
The work is a fantastic in waltz form for
orchestra, and is dedicated to Mr.. Thomas.
The death is announced of Nicholas Rubin
stein, younger brother of the more famous
Anton, but himself pianist of extraordinary
achievements, and for many years director OF
the Moscow Conservatory. There was some
question of bringing him TO this country few
years ago on concert tour, but nothing de-
finite seems ever to have been done about it.
No date is given for his death, and there is
some hope that the report may be premature.
The success of Billee Taylor in New York the
Tribune says has been but moderate, notwith-
standing the fact that it is put upon the stage
in the most lavish manner as regards costumes
and scenery and with great number OF pretty
women. The performer who was imported
from London to sing in tho title role would,
however, be sufficient in himself to mar the
fortunes of any company. He has no voice
worth speaking of, does not know how to sing,
and even with the experience he has mad on
the stage in that city seems to have acquired
no knowledge of the art of the actor, and is
apparently mere awkward amateur.
Referring to Nine. PATHS change of pur
pose, in regard to her contemplated American
tour for next year, the Figaro of London says
''To take the lady on concert tour through
America, and to make no arrangements for
her appearance in opera, seems too absurd for
our practical cousins. Whether Ia dioa will
eventually go to the United States is a matter
for the future But while she can have, as
she is now receiving in Paris, half the gross
receipts on an average receipt of e1200. a night,
she is not likely to tempt fortune on the other
side of the Atlantic"

The Bangor Commercial says that the report
recently published regarding the strange treat.
ment of the remains Of an old lady at Orono
was wholly untrue. The body of the lady was
tenderly and appropriately prepared for the
grave and placed in an unused room to await
the arrival of her son, who was at work at the
time of his mothers death in the woods above
Midway, and who had been summoned home
with all possible speed to attend the funeral,
pat was unable to do so owing to the impassa-
BILE condition of the roads. Such is the plain
statement of the facts. No hoods were placed
bricks were placed at her feet, as the writer of
the above mentioned article alleged, but every
act on the part of the family was becoming the
solemnity of an occaaion where the remains OF
an aged and respected mother were simply

On Thursday Of last week, as Mr.. Barnard
Knight was passing along the side of Knights
pond in South Berwick, his attention was at
tracted to the large number of cells floating
quite near the surface of the water and near
the shores of the pond. He procured hook
and pole, and in a short time fished out of the
water several bushels of cells, horned pouts
and other kinds of fish, and could, he thinks
have taken out carloads of such fish. OF the
fish some were dead, others with sluggish
life and all torpid, with little or no motion.

FRIDAY.-Charles A. Donnell VS.. Inhabitants OF
Cape Elizabeth. This is action to recover dana
ges laid at $1,000, for personal injuries sustained
through an alleged defect in highway known as
the Spurwink road in the defendant town. The
defect as set out in the writ is substantially that
ON the hill near Spurwink river there was in the
travelled part of the road uttng, shelving ledge
or rock lying uncovered and coming above the sur
face of the ground about six inches that the earth
washed away, leaving the ledge bare and slippery;
that the hill steep and covered for two rods be-
low the ledge with loose rolling stones and that the
travelled way narrow and INSTRUCTED SO that team
could not pass round said ledge with safety.
The plaintiff says that while driving down this
hill on his way to Spurwink on the I'd of July last
he obliged, account of the narrowness of the
way and the washout, to drive his horse over and
upon this slippery edge that his horse slipped and
fell, throwing him out and the lady with him. The
lady escaped without severe injury, but Mr.. Don
uclls right wrist was broken his left sprained
aud his left breast bruised to extent. He tes-
iIties that his wrist, which shows some deformity
no v pains him, and that he is not able to work at
ms business that of brass founder, than two
hours day.
The defendants deny that the way defective
and also deny knowledge of its actual condition OIL
