MUSIC AND THE DRAMA,
OUR GERMAN SENATOR.

OUR GERMAN SENATOR.
Tonight Gus Williams will delight our thea
ire going public with his representation OF
"Our German Senator" The tickets are SELL
ing well at the theatre. The Philadelphia
Record says:-"It is certainly an original char
acter and has no counterpart in the wide range
of farcial Teutons of the stage. Mr.. Dinkel,
who is a Western brewer, living in retirement,
is prevailed upon by q firm of landowners and
pension agents to present himself as candi-
date for United States Senator. He becomes
involved in all kinds of intricate dllemmas IN
conducting his campaign, but hnaily' aIter q
canvas that was characterized by the drollest
incidents and laughter-provoking situations,
he secures the object of his ambition. Mr..
Williams cannot open his lips, indeed, he can
not present his person upon scene wlInout
exciting the risibilties of the audience. There
is nothing forced or exaggerated about his hu-
NOR. He does not seem to be making any at
tempt to draw laugh. His acting IS natur-
al expression of the ludicrous, and though his
German dialect assists him in his comical stu
atoms, he does not depend on 1t alone Tor ms
success There is an exquisite dellcacy OF sell
gerate, that lends charm to Mr.. Williams
personation and shows that he has given to it
much faithful study. The whole performance
was intensely amusing"

The advance sale of seats for Mr. Wheelock's
representation of Lieut. Wardour at the Port

day and proved very large take for the occa-

Curtis to produce the play in the most perfec'
style, while the drama will afford Mr..
Wheelock unusual facilities for displaying his
great merits as an actor. That the house Will
be crowded goes for the saying.

Singular Case.

A man named John Williams was working

Andrew L. T. Jones VS.. George w. Parker.
Rescript by Danforth, J.-It is competent in this
case to show that plaintiffs mortgage was with
drawn by him from the City Clerks office after de-
livery and before it was recorded. Such evidence
does not contradict any record any entry made by
the clerk in his official capacity. The entry upon
the back of the mortgage and in the book shows the
date of its record except by inference. This infer
ence may be overcome 1t is in this case by evil
6ence showing the contrary. The proper construc-
ton of the provision of the statute sit shall be con-
sisent with the other parts of the act is, that it
shall be SO considered while the mortgage remains
on file. 1t is withdrawn by the mortgage or by his
order before it is recorded it is Withdrawn from the
record and the entry is of no avail at the time of
the attachment this mortgage had not been record
cd nor was 1t file. 1t therefore affords no title
against the attachment

Another View of the Corn Question.
Mr.. EDITOR:
1t was noticeable fact in the farmers meet
ing yesterday that those who were most ready TO
advise the farmers of this state not to plant sweet
corn at present prices, were those who had not
been in the habit of planting. Some OF those
who spoke hailed from places where no factory
is near them; one who had planted one year
for factory established last year, which was
unsuccessful, as farmers who plant for new
factories are not generally as successful the
first season as in succeeding years. Farmers
who are successful in raising other crops are
well satisfied with the present price Tor swees
corn; as for instance Mr.. Scammon of Gorham,
Mr.. Reed of Windham, and other careful and
we'll known farmers, and the absurdity OF MIR.
Princes statement claiming that it cost him
1891 to plant and cultivate one-half acre OF
corn, needs no comment, except that such
farmer ought to plant nothing at all. The
fact is that the business of corn packing Is
rapidly increasing in other states, and if the
farmers of this state listen to bad cou nsels
they will soon see valuable industry driven
out of this state Maine is in q bad condition
enough now without making it worse by dis
couraging SO important an industry as this OF
corn packing, and if the farmers of this state
fully understood how the situation is, they
would do all in their power to foster enter
prises which not only furnish employment for
their families, but add to the permanent
wealth of the state. In the town of Harrison
farmers have offered Burnham g. Morrill, $50
acres of sweet corn for q cents for 26 ounces,
if they will put up factory there, and they
will do so. The farmers OF Harrison have
planted sweet corn for fifteen years, and know
all about the profits which this crop will bring
them. They must certainly think it prohta-
BILE crop, or they would not have taken this
action. There are many places in the state
where the farmers are DESTROYS of raising sweet
corn, and they are willing to plant for % cents
for 26 ounces the first season, in order TO in
duce packers to build near them. Is 1t not
probable that these new places will thrive to
the detriment of the old ones? The best farmers
say that sweet corn at three cents for 70
ounces, is the best crop they can raise, as it
brings ready money, and there is no trouble OF
marketing it, as is the case with other crops
The American Grocer of New York has an ar
ticle copied from Minnesota paper, to the ef-
feet that the farmers of that state formerly burnt
their corn, but now propose to can it, and that
they can raise better sweet corn than Maine
IF this is SO, it is but question of short time
for the business to be transferred to the West
Will our farmers hasten the day? We think
not.
