A new Italian company has opened its sea-

Aramburo is the tenor and Signora Adm the

known, is said to have beautiful voice and to
sing with talent.

NJ Damsla, the attenuated Bernhardt's hus-
band, is said to be a sharp business man, He
brew by race, although Greek by religion, who
will serve her more faithfully than any one
else could as manager, advertising agent and
financier.
Mile Marie Janszewaka is young Partisan
pianiste, whose playing is described as correct
and elegant, and her phrasing simple and nat
ural. A very critical audience applauded her
rendering of prelude and fugue by Bach, and
encored her Chopin's Scherzo.
Mrs. e. Aine Osgood, who is very well &C
quainted with Jenny Lind, relates The follow
ing incident of their first meeting: "When [
first called upon Mrs. Goldschmidt she met
me in the corridor, and without greeting me
snatched from my bosom small boquet of
flowers and threw them away, saying: If you
wish to remain good singer never breathe
the aroma of flowers. They will do well
enough to look at, and you may thank God for
giving them to you, but their breath spoils the
voice."

RAILROAD NOTES.
Boston s. Maine and Eastern.

We are authorized to state there is no truth
in the rumor that there is to be war between
the Boston & Maine and Eastern roads. Such
a proceeding would be suicidal to the interests
of both roads. 1t would result in failure, as
it is said, on the part of the Boston & Maine
to pay dividends, and of the Eastern to pay
interest. The rumor that the Boston & Maine
will put on line ofssteamers to Bar Hsrbor
in competition with the Bangor and Machias
line is equally absurd. The Machias line has
always treated both companies equally well.
Minor Notes.
The Northern Pacific Railroad Company
has in its eastern division main line 9703 miles
of completed road, and in its western division
main line 1901 miles, making a total mileage
on May of 1851, or an increase of $50 miles
since January /, 1881. Between the eastern
and western divisions there is gap of 593
miles. 1t is calculated that 400 miles of this
gap will be built this year, leaving to be con-
structed in 1888 only 1913 miles, when there
will be continuous road between Lake Supe-
rior and st. Paul in the Esst, and Portland and
Puget Sound in the West. The link between
Kalama and Portland, Oregon, forty-five miles
has been definitely located, and grading will be
SO that track-laying can be commenced when
ever it is to the interest of the company to fin
ish this part of its lines. On the eastern end
the purpose is to build fifty miles from Snpe-
rior City in an easterly direction toward the
Montreal River, provided the demands of con-
struction elsewhere will permit OF the prosecu-
tion of this work The company has on hand
and paid for steel rails fastenngs, spikes, ties,
etc, sufficient to lay 37S miles of road. The
business of the company will be increased from
us branch lines; which, when entirely COM
pleted, will embrace an aggregate of 405 miles
The bonded Indebtedness of the company
amounts 10 $24,740,000. Upon the present
bonded Indebtedness of the company the fixed
charges amount to 81 ,484, 400 per annum; and
on the completion of the entire Northern Psci-
fc system the fixed charges will not exceed the
sum of 600 per annum, which is equiva-
lett to six per cent upon bonded Indebtedness
of $40, 100000.
The freight agents of Eastern roads termin-
ating at Chicago hava agreed on schedule of
switching charges to be submitted to the Man
ayers. The rates are as follows: On freight
from the east consigned direct to Union Stock
Yards 81 per carr consigned to Chicago and re-
consigned to stock yards, So; consigned 10 Chi

LAUNDERING on the Penobscot.

The Commercial says the Penobscot lumber
men are anxious for rain. At some points driv-
ing has been abandoned on account of low
water. The first Mattawamkeag drives of 15,-
100000 feet will be in the boom, it is thought
in few days. Mr.. j. w. Palmer's cut, made
in the vicinity of the "Gulf" amounts to about
100000 feet, but the two drives, forward ana
rear contain over 100000 feet, the extra
three millions being other operators logs which
Mr.. Palmer has taken to drive. There are on
Pleasant river four large dams, an d Mr.. Palm
er has 50 ICED the water from their ponds
that ths .tward drive of 100000 feet OF MS
own and other logs will reach The Penobscot,
Thursday. The rear drive consists of about
100000 feet, and the logs are now being sluic.
el through the Gulf, with good prospect OF
getting them through the main river, and al
most a surety of getting 100000 feet of them
to market There is crew of fifty men on the
forward drive, while $50 red shutters are trying
TO get the rear through.

Yesterday two well known fish dealers had a
large order to fill for customers. The supply
of fish in the market was so scanty they could
not fill the order until some of the fishing boats
arrived. The first one that got in was con-
signed to neighbor, but they offered the cap
tain $250-a rise of 30 cents-for the cargo.
The captain was loyal and wanted little time
to decide. He took that time to relate his offer
to his consignee, who, Immediately bought the
cargo for the same price, and then went and
bought up the cargoes of later arrivals for
