The Chicago Herald has sent one Of its
staff to Dorsey's Colorado ranch to inter
view him. The first Of the interviews
it seems that there are more to follow
appeared in the Herald on Saturday last.
Dorsey. it appears, had not seen the
remarkable article in the New York Sun
a couple Of weeks ago, giving the inside
history Of the Republican campaign Of
$50. and which the press Of the country
attributed to him. until the Herald man
showed it to him. Nobody seems to have
thought enough Of him TO send it
to him. He denies emphatically
that he inspired it or had
anything 10 do with it. He thinks Mr..
Dana. Of the sun. did him great injustice
IN allowing the impression To 20 uncOn-
tradicted that he furnished the article. He
says the article goes over the surface like
a milk skinner. and that Mr.. Dana
ought 10 have known that
if he intended to appear in
print he would have gone deeper into
tine subject. He does not deny, however,
that the statements Of the article are in
the main correct. One thing. he says,
Will attract attention. Il is that
the star route contractors did not
contribute anything to the fund
in October. in 1850. Brady, a week or so
ago. in an interview. said that he assess
ed the contractors $4,000 at the request
Of Garfield. made in the notorious ''my
dear HubbeIl' letter, for the Indiana cam
paign. Dorsey declares that Brady
had nothing TO do with the
Indiana campaign. The fact
that the chief defendants in the star route
trial differ 80 widely in their statements
will create the impression that there is
lack of harmony between them. Now,
that Dorsey has no further fears Of prose
cution. it i probable that he
doesn't care what becomes Of
Brady. In fact. it has often been said
that they were never very good friends.
Dorsey goes further, and says that Brady
knew nothing about the October campaign
in Indiana. He says that 100000
was used TO carry the State, and that the
money was distributed by three Repub
licans in each township. He says that he
himself had very little TO do with the
campaign. The men who managed it
were John {. New, now Assistant Secre-
tary Of the Treasury. and Gen. Dudley,
now Commissioner Of Pensions. The in
terviews with Dorsey. which are to follow,
viii be looked for with great interest. If
he determines to open his tiR-lined cedar
box. he Will make the rottenness of the
Republican party so apparent that the
world will wonder that the people have
kept it in power so long.

Bath.

Church fairs and festivals have been in
order in Bath this winter, and the several de-
nominations have reaped their share of benefits
To give variety, ladies of the Episcopal
church rendered an entertainment of diff
ferent character by placing upon the boards OF
Columbian Hall Tuesday evening the two
farces, ''Betsy Baker, and "The Sleeping
Car" and made decided hit. These humor-
GUS comedies drew to completely filing the
largest hall in the city, with the elite OF Bath
society, and the audience was amply repaid
for attendance. Both pieces proved successful
and were highly attractive and amusing, con-
sdering that the performers comprised those
who mainly had never before faced an au-
dience. The several characters were admirably
sustained throughout, and some OF them were
notably meritorious. The cast OF tsey
Baker" was Miss M. d. Richardson as Betsey
Baker, Miss Jennie W. McLeDnaD, ID. e.

HuMPTY DUMPTX,
The Philadelphia Inquirer speaks as follows
of Tony Denier's "Humpty Dumpty" organ
ization which will appear at Portland Theatre
tonight; "Tony Denier's "Humpty Dumpty"
troupe appeared, last evening, before the larg
est audience that probably evee assembled in
this popular theatre. The pantomime was
produced in a style of remarkable excellence,
and the entire performance passed off amid
the most hilarious amusement of the vast
crowd assembled to witness it. No brighter
or merrier company of players have ever ap
peared upon the stage of the Walnut in panto-
mine and burlesqae, and there was nothing
said or done that was not received with the
most viciferous explosions of laughter or
hearty enjoyment. The spirit OF fun was ram
pant and all-pervading upon the stage, and
never failed to win the favor of the audience.
This week all good children, whether large or
small, should go 10 the pantomine at the Wal
nut, if only to laugh and drive away dull care.
La BELLE Russo.
Miss JeffreysLewis will appear in Good

The Continentars Statement.

The Continental Insurance Company always
makes a good annual statement; but, some-
how, the figures for January l, this time, are
of an almost phenomenal kind. That any
companies at all should be ahead a dollar for
the past years experience is really remarkable,
in view of the enormous fire waste of tie year
and the discouragements generally met by fire
underwriters all through 1882. 1t is therefore
the more noteworthy
The assets of the Company, as compared
with the 81 ,207 ,205.51 of January 1, 1882, are
now $4.450. 534.50, a gain of S243,328 SO. The
net surplus, year ago, over all liabilities Gin
Guiding capital) was 81 ,406, 720.Sl, and now il
is $l,557 1859, gain of $151, 144SS. But the
statement tells its own story, with all due EN-.
phasis, and its figures will be not only impress
sive upon property owners everywhere, tut
will be useful to all as vindicating the kind Of
conservative management which has made the
Continental what it is.

The Importance of a City Gymnasium


Regular and wisely adapted exercise has
been recommended by all who have renectea
upon the subject. Its healthful influence has
been fully demonstrated by experience and In
vestigation. In view of his well known need
Of the human body does it not seem Important
that in these days of modern education,
well-appointed gymnasium should be sustained
in every community? A place we'll ventilated,
discreetly furnished with apparatus and bath
ing facilities, and under the charge OF an edu-
Gated instructor who understands the pur-
poses and methods of physical cultureP 1t is
the desire OF the managers of the Portland
Turnverein to make this institution more USE
full in the community in supplying place for
healthful exercise. The hall is centrally To-
Gated, spacious, and we'll ventilated. The APP
paratus is fair, but can be replenished and
improved at slight expense, II reasonable sup
port is afforded by members
Attention is now called to this opportunity
for having an excellent and useful gynnasi-
UNI in our city, If those who recognize its
needs will support it. Effort is now being
made to revive interest in this somewhat ne
elected institution. A class for regular exer-
else is to be organized Immediately. The
class will meet two evenings in the week.
There will be an experienced leader. The ex-
ereise will be of the simplest character and
will be most carefully conducted. The aim
will be to promote health. The popular i'm
preston is that the aim Of the gymnasium is
to effect proficiency in athletic feats. The
managers of the Turnveren recognize the dam
ger of such tendency and are determined to
guard against it. Any advantage can be
abused but its abuse should not prevent prop
er use. The attention of all interested in this
subject is thus called to tn Availability of do
ing something to improve the present condi-
ton of our gymnasium, which is now a very
good one, into an establishment like those In
Boston. All interested in the project are re-
quested to send applications for membership,
any suggestions, and requests for further in

a disputed Trust.

A nice question of law arose before Judge
VIM. Allea of the Supreme Court in equity, IN
Boston, Wednesday, which will finally have
to be determined by the full bench of the, Su-
preme Court. The plaintiff, who is the widow
of Charles f. Hamblin, deceased, had sepa
rate estate, out of which she loaned her hus-
band $40. 600 to use in his business and took
his notes as security. They were then living
in Bangor, and it was admitted that under the
laws of Maine the notes represent a valuable
consideration. Subsequently they removed to
Massachusetts and about year before Mr..
Hamblin died he deposited $4,000 in trust for
his three children. His wife now claims that
she is entitled to the payment out OF that SUN
of her notes, amounting to $20,ooO, and the
question to be settled 10 whether or not tbs
notes will operate as against the atrust which ID
admitted to have been created The decision
