Yesterday was glorious one for the recep-
ton by the Portland Mechanic Blues to Gov.
ROBBIE and staff, and the Maverick Rifles of
East Boston. The weather was mild, the
streets in fair condition for marching, con-
sidering the season, and the air delicious.
The Rifles with their guests left East Boston
in special smoking and parlor car and Joined
the regular train over the Eastern at Revere.
At Portsmouth they were met by the special
committee from tina Blues consisting of ex-
Captain @. j. Pennell, Lieut. Smith aud Hon
orarg Member King
AT 1.15 p. m. the Blues fell into line at their
armory, fifty strong, attired in the regulation
uniform OF the 1st Maine Regiment--of which
organization they are the B company--and
headed by Chambers Band marched to the
Eastern Railroad station where they awaited
the arrival of their guests. The noon train
over the Maine Central was delayed an hour
by the failure of the st. John and Maine to
connect, and thus Gov. Robbie and staff were
also delayed, as they took the cars at Augusta
The train bearing the Rifles was late, it is re-
ported, on the one hand, from the engine run
ming off the track at Kittery, and, on the other,
to breaking of an axle on the parlor car
caused by Charles when he stepped into it to
greet the guests. It was about 2.15 D. M.
when both companies fell into line and march
ed over the published route, to the head
quarters at the Falmouth Hotel in the follow
