DREAMS.

DREAMS.
Last evening Mr.. Willie Edouin's company
appeared at Portland Theatre in dreams, or
Fun in Photograph Gallery" The plot, such
as it is, has already been given in the PRESS
The piece in plan and style is not unlike sever
al of those which have gained such an amount
of popularity here. In the first act Mr. Edouln
appears as an old man of TO- and fairly brings
down the house in his muddled speech at the
dinner table. Miss Alice Anterior appears as
an old lady of 65. The fun really lies In the
second act where company visits photo
graph gallery and there dance and sing and
have a good time generally. The fun in the
play is not allowed to flag for one minute, and
there is not an idle moment in the whole. Mr..
Edouin is surrounded by an excellent com pany
and the vocal talent of the troupe is above the
average. Mr.. Edouin has evidently struck
bonanza this time, and the piece in the hands
of two such well known artists is success.
The piece will be repeated tonight.
CHANDELIERS BAND.
Tonight the second grand concert in Chand-
ler's course will be given at City Hall and
should draw very large audience OF all our
citizens who enjoy really good music. The
first concert proved one of the most delightful
of the season, and a guarantee OF what the
others will be. The band will appear this
time as an orchestra. Walter Emerson, the
great cornet virtuoso, will appear, the Weber
Club will furnish several of their enjoyable
selections and BERTHE Webb the child violinist,
will play. Mr.. Harvey Murray will furnish
the accomplishments. Get your tickets to-day
at Chambers music store.
FosrELLE COMEDY CO.
The amusing old Mrs Malaprop OF modern
timss-Mrs. Partington-as delineated by

of the curtain. Procure seats this morning at

Willie Edouin,s Photograph Gallery


About year ago Willie Edouin, the actor,
invested several thousand dollars in photo1
graph gallery known as "Scholl's," in North
Ninth street, Philadelphia. Many promi-
nent actor and actress had pictures taken
there A single plate of picture OF Modes
ka, which is in possession of the gallery, is
valued at $3.50. Mccullough, Booth, Sheri-
dan, Barton Hill, Mary Anderson, Lolita, JET
ferson, Maggie Mitchell, Janauschek, Edouin'
Alice Anterior and Catherine Lewis were
among those whose pictures were taken at
Scholl's. Notwithstanding this good patron
age the gallery lost money, and finally Scholl
retired from the firm. Edouin still stuck to
the business, however, and nearly all the
profits of his farce, CO lied "Fun in Photo
graph Gallery" were sunk in his other gallery
in Ninth street. When, in January, he esti-
mated his losses at over $4,000, he lost all
faith in the gallery and resolved to close it out
and in future only manage his travelling pic
ture shop. The stock of plates and pictures is
now being sold

FEBRUARY CIVIL FERA-BEFoRE JUDGE BoNNEY.
Observation-Disclosures Wilson VS.. Samuel Bunker.
Action to recover damages for false arrest and
imprisonment On the Sth of June, 1881, the de-
PENDANT, who resides in North Arson, took out of
the Clerk of ourts Office in Somerset county an
alias execution for a judgment of $500, recovered
against Wilson in October, 1878. This execution
he placed in the hands of officer with instruc-
tons to collect or commit The officer arrested
Wilson. who told him he had obtained discharge
from all debts provable under the insolvent law In
October, 1879, but he had not the discharge with
Wilson was not released from arrest. He got coun-
sell who made citation for him to disclose, and af-
ter an adjournment by the justices hearing the dis
closure to the next week, he left Arson and did not
60 back. He claimed that he was about to go to
Colorado when arrested aud was thereby delayed a
week; that his expenses in employing COUNSEL ETC..
caused by the arrest were SOL and his counsel
claimed that the plaintiff also entitled to
empiary damages.
The defendant admitted that he was responsible
for whatever the officer did; that when he put the
know that Wilson had received discharge in in
solvency, although he admits he received notice of
the filing of the petition. The officer did not lock
the plaintiff up, but allowed him to go and come
he pleased. He simply told him he might consider
himself under arrest.
The Court ruled rs matter of law, that the judg-
ment upon which the execution issued was
proyable against the estate, and therefore his dis
charge discharge from all liability under that
Judgment, and the only question for the jury here
was the question of damages.

PARIS, THE MAGNIFICENT"
Mr.. H. H. Ragan's Complimentary talk

The complimentary "talk'' given by Mr.;
Raglan last evening on "Paris the Magnih-
cent" was listened to by an audience nearly
filling City Hall. Lectures with stereopticon
attachments and stereoptican exhibitions with
lecture attachments have become so common
that the advent of new one OF either klno,
unless offering something decidedly unique
does not create SO much excitement among
amusement seekers as did some of their
predecessors, and as the coming series follows
SO closely upon the heels Of those given by
Mr.. Stoddard Mr.. Raglan must not be sur
prised if they are not as fully attended as were
those given by the first named gentleman.
We are sorry that the exhibition last evening
was marred by some accident to the dissolying
apparatus which took away much OF the
pleasure of the entertainment, and no DOUBT
the jerking through Of the views was as an
noying to Mr.. Raglan as it was to the specta-
tors, but as the operator was wholly to blame
in the matter, nothing must be subtracted
from Mr.. Ragan's endeavor to please bis au-
ditors. The lecture was opened with histor
ical sketch of the city of Paris, from its found
alton to the present time, and the various poll
teal and religious phases through which IL
has passed were graphically described. Fol-
lowing that the views of the different objects
of interest in the city, its triumphal arches, its
churches and public buildings, were thrown
upon the screen, and were accompanied by
full and interesting descriptions.
From Paris short excursion was taken to
Versailles, and many charming views of the
exteriors and interiors of the wonderful
palaces in this historic spot were gwen, the
lecture terminating with view of tho salon
in one of the palaces, famous as the place
where Marshal Bazaine was tried for his
treacnery at Metz, and for other historical
events. We think it would be good idea for
Mr.. Raglan to have the foot lights lighted at
the close of his succeeding lectures, as the.
light from the screen is not sufficiently vivid
for people to comfortably find their way out OF
the hall, and we think also that the stereopti-
con should be protected in some way SO that
occupants of the gallery in its immediate
vicinity may not be annoyed by the flashes OF
light constantly emanating from it.

White Star steamer Celtic, which arrived at
New York Saturday reports having passed
February 4th, at 8 o'clock p. m. in lat. 49, O.
long. 80 80 the Allan line steamer Sandman,
bound East. She signalled the Celtic and said
she had lost her rudder in longitude 49, and
was proceeding with caution. This was the
only communication between the vessels, in
dicating the Sandman had every confidence in
whatever temporary steering gear she may
have adopted. The vessels ran about six miles
apart The wind at the time was light east
erly and the vessel seemed to be making about
twelve knots, and moving steadily.
The reasons given for not reporting the cir
cumstances sooner, are it was by no means GER
tain the vessel signalled was the Sandman,
and whatever vessel it might have been it was
thought she had made her port good before the
arrival of the Celtic. Captain Glea dell
of the Celtic was only yesterday morning con-
WINGED that the vessel was the Sandman, and
on inquiring learned she had anot yet reached
her destination. Satisfying himself of these
facts Captain Gleadell at once eommuni Gated
the circumstances to Messrs Allan at Montreal
The Sandman sailed from Portland Janu airy
26th, and Halifax the 18th. Among her pas
sengers was son of Mr. M. G. Palmer of this
city.

Goth for Liverpool with large cargo
valued at. about 1898 900 and twelve passengers,
among the latter son of Mr. M. G. Palmer OF

from the Celtic it is probable Capt Dutton
felt no uneasiness, expecting, at that date, to
reach port shortly.

located on Congress street in the old school
house on the lot where Casco No. 5 now stands.
In 1864 the engine was removed to Bracket

original member of the old organization is
the worthy and efficient engineer, Mr.. Wiggin,
whose long experience and the able and faith
full manner in which he has discharged his
duties has won the confidence of many of our

the prompt manner in which they respond
