probably carry the county by large ma
iority. Bets are being freely offered by
Davis adherents that he will carry the dis.

French's Lectures.

Mr. Frencl, whose illustrated lectures in the
z. M. G. A. course will be great treat,
has notable reputation as a speaker and
writer, ranking among the best in the country.
His views are considered by the best critics to
be the finest in America. They were photo.
graphed by artists who accompanied Mr..
French to the scenes described. To complete
the effect and perfectly delineate the scenery,
these negatives have been painted by hand by
the first French artists, giving a painting in
miniature which is magnifed many thousand
times as thrown upon the screen, and adding
the reality of colors to the accuracy of photo
graphy.
BY the use of his three-lens stereopticon all
the changes of natural scenery are readily de-
picted. The gathering and bursting of thuu-
der storms; the transition from day to night;
from the Gland of the midnight sun" to the
tropics; the aurora borealis; mountain torrents
dashing down precipices; can for the first time
be delineated in all their grandeur and beauty.
Each lecture will be illustrated by at least so
views never equalied in effect.

The managers of the Temporary Home for
Women and Children say that for several
weeks past an elderly man named Kane, hail
ing from Massachusetts,, and leading little
blind girl, his daughter, by The hand has been
applying for charity at houses in the city and
suburbs, on the ground that he wished to get
money for an operation on the girls eyes. He
collected considerable amount, but it was
suspected that he was an imposter, and watch
ing his movements confirmed the suspicion
The girl was found in destitute condition in
poor house on Fore street, and there is no
doubt that the money was spent for liquor
The managers took charge Of the girl and re-
fused to let her go out with her father.
A brother Of the girl, about Is years old, was
found going about on his own hook with a let
ter, presumably written by the father, asking
money for the same purpose. The letter was
taken away from him, but it is possible that
he may obtain another and go about again on
the same errand. People should be warned
against him. The managers of the Home say
the little girl is unfortunate and really de-
serving, but the father by no means so.

A Terrible Mistake.

The Press, Tuesday morning, published a
special dispatch from Biddeford, stating that
Edward Delaney had one of his hands torn in
pieces by picker in one of the mills there. 1t
also spoke of the wonderful nerve of the man,
in walking from the mill across the street to
drug store, where he suffered amputation of
the limb at the wrist, without taking an anGs-
thetic.
After the amputation the surgeon left a
quantity of morphine powders with tie mans
wife, to give him during the night at stated
times, in case he suffered great pain. The wife
m;stook the directions, understanding the
powders were to be given him anyway, and
she did SO. The consequence was she gave
him an overdose, in his weakened condition,
and in spite Of every effort to resuscitate him
death ensued during the night

Stray Shots from the Muster.

The Augusta Journal of Tuesday says: We
omitted to mention in our yesterdays report
the fine skirmish drill of Co. A, First Regi-
ment PORTLAND Light Iafantry,) on Tuesday.
The company was commanded by Lieut. Nor
ton, and the drill reflects great credit upon
that officer Lieut.. Norton is veteran of the
late war, losing his left arm in the service. All
the movements in the skirmish drill were bril-
liantly executed, and it attracted much atten-
tion."

was feared. He was removed to the hospital,

MUSIC AND THE DRAMA.



"The worlds stage. as Shakespeare said one day,
The stage world was what he meant to say.
The outside worlds blundcr that is,cear;
The inside world, that Nature meant, is here.
The great spectacular melo-drama of "The
World" which was brought out at the Boston
Theatre with such ecldt last season, had its
first representation in Portland Theatre last
night. 1t would be absurd to compare the rep
resentation here with its production in Boston,
neither would it be just There is no compari-
son in the size of the two stages, and a specta-
cular play cannot be attempted in Portland
with hopes of much success, Still, the raft
scene was brought out quite effectively with
the means at command, and the curtain fell
amidst a storm of applause. So with the de-
struction of the steamer; many of the bombs
failed to explode. For all that the audience
demanded repetition of the scene.
AS far as the play itself IS concerned, it is
melodrama, with enough of incident crowded
into it to afford plot for half dozen modern
novels. The company plays it fairly well, Mr..
John I. Craven, as Mr.. Jewell, proving the
life of the piece Mr. Vandenhoff was accept
able as Sir Clement, and Miss Kingsford
conscientious aud pretty Mabel, but they pos
sessed little or no magnetism, and seemed
hardly en- rapport with the characters they as
sumed. Miss Noah was good as Mary and
Miss Framer as Ned. The audience were
deeply interested, and applauded to the echo
all the points in the drama. The World will
be repeated tonight and tomorrow.
NOTES.
1t is hoped thst there will be full house at
Miss Latham's concert. Let us encourage our
young amateurs who are trying hard to sue
coed. The announcement that we all can
give by attending a concert of this kind will
cost us but little, and will brighten their way
and greatly tighten the burden that so often
lays too heavily by far upon the shoulders OF
young musical aspirants. There was large
advance sale OF tickets at Stockbridge's yes
terday.
The Pittsburg Gazette speaks in the highest
terms of the play of "Wardour" and of Wheel
ock s acting as the hero.

The large marble tablet, representing the
signing of the social compact in the cabin of
the Mayfower, designed to be placed in the
base of the Plymouth monument, has just been
completed and shipped to its destination by the
Ballowell Granite Company. This is the fin
est and most elaborate piece of work ever exc
cuted at Hallowell, being cut in marble by
two Italians, who have been engaged on it
about six months. The size of the tablet is
about three by five feet. The figures, thirteen
in number, stand out in bold relief; the OK.
preston of each face is life-like and earnest.
The large statue representing Education,
which is to be placed on one corner of Ply
mouth monument, has also been completed by
the Hallowell Granite Company and shipped.
1t is cut from one block of granite, which
weighed in the rough state about one hundred
tons, but in its completed condition weighs
about twenty tons.

HANLAN AND KENNEDY.
The Difficulty of Coming to an Agree
ment on Time and Place.


The Globe says: edward Hanlan and
John Kennedy held another consultation
Wednesday in Boston in Boston in relation to
their coming race without any satisfactory re-
suit. Both men are determined and seriously
mean business, but cannot seem to agree as to
where and when the race shall come off. Han
Ian, who has done no rowing whatever this
season and is, to use a sporting phrase, hog
fat wants time to get into condition. Ken
nedy, on the other hand, is in perfect condi-
ton, and IS afraid that if he has to wait a
couple of months for the contest to come off
he will "go stale" He assured Hanlan that
he issued his challenge upon information which
he received that he (Hanlan) was rowing and
would certainly close with him for race to
be rowed in three weeks from signing articles.
They mutually regretted each others condi-
tion, and both of them expressed themselves
as being DESTROYS of rowing a fair and upright
contest. 1t was thought that the contest
would take place over the Silver Lake course,
but it was found upon inquiry that the man
agement of the Old Colony railroad were not
DESTROYS of opening the grounds at Silver
Lake for any occasion SO late in the season,
and the project of rowing at that place had to
be abandoned.
The conversation was mainly upon where
the race would take place Haplan does not
wish to row at any point north of Washington
in November and expressed desire to row at
New Orleans. Kennedy don't want to 90
South, but is particularly DESTROYS of rowing
the race over the Charles river course, and
there the matter for the present stands, 1t
will no doubt be settled, however, when they
meet in Portland, Me-, on September 18th, and
Kennedy's desire in this particular may be
granted, as the champion will no doubt waive
his objection to the cold weather which he ex-
poets will prevail in this section about Thanks
giving time for the honor of victory over
both Kennedy and Ross before an audience
which will certainly number on the occasion
of both races upwards of $4,000"
