The AIdens M ,bc R;;ou

Inc Bi1ou skating rink was filed last even
ing with large party who were present to see
the bicycle exhibition given by the famous
Aldens, Dick and Charles. This exhibition
was wonderful. The rink was splendidly
adapted to show them at their best and they
Were received with rounds of applause. To
attempt to mention in detail their daring
feats would be folly but they were OF the very
best. They commenced By riding the ma
chine without any handle bar and followed
with series OF evolutions almost bewildering
to the eye in their curious twists and turns.
Their double riding was a continual round OF
daring feats, one propelling the machine while
his COMPANION first stood On his shoulders, then
hanging on all parts of the machine and end.
Ing by farming a complete somersault in the
air. 1t is safe to say that an exhibition of it's
equal was never given in the CITY At the
close of the bicycle exhibition the pair, who
are splendid acrobats, gave an exhibition OF
tumbling and contortion acts that brought
down the house and they were twice recalled
Orders we're used last night for the first time
and will be given out each session.
This evening Prof. William J. Merrill wi II
givs an exhibition of fancy and trick skating
at the Biiou. Mr.. Merrill has appeared in the
CITY before and has always been received with
great favor. The American Roller says he
is deemed by competent judges to be the very
best roller skater in the country. Among the
most noticeable of his acts are the zone foot
fly" skating backward and forward around the
rink on one foot, his grapevine" hee-aud
toe, Philadelphia twist" with heel-and-toe,
his flying threes" and MANY other pleasing
tricks He should be seen by all. Chandler
will furnish music.

.Eesuit Missian

A mission by the Jesuit Fathers, Rev. B. A.
Mcguire, superior, will commence at the
Cathedral and at St. Dominics on Sunday,
the 23d inst, at the high mass and will con-
tinue two weeks.
The Pilot speaks as follows of the mission
recently given by these gentlemen at St.
James church, Boston:
"The mission at St. James church, one of
the most successful ever given in Boston,
closed last Sunday night. The mission was
given by the Jesuit Fathers, Rev. Bern ard A.
Mcguire, SUPERVISOR; Revs. jerome D,ughsr-
W, Henry Kavanagh and Il. B. Mcdonald,
assistants. The church was literally packed
at ali the services. both in the basement and
in the body of the church. The Devotion of
the Forty Hours began on Friday and ended
at the solemn high mass on Sunday morning.
At thif service Rev. Father Langcake, s. j.,
preached an eloquent sermon. 10 the after
noon the Most Rev. Arch bishop Williams ad-
minisered the sacrament of confirmation to
about 300 adults. The mission closed in the
evening, the Rev. Father Mcguire giving
Papal benediction. The service began at half
past seven, and at Z o'clock il was i'm possible
to gain admission. rhe splendid success at
tending the work of the Missionary Fathers is
very cOpsoling to the zralous rector of St..
James, Father Thomas Shahan."
The mission stands in the same relation to
the church thata revival does to the Profess
tsnt church.

No feature to give pleasure was lacking last
evening at the grand party and exhibition CIV
go under the auspices of the Portland Cadets
Ia the rink at Storer Bros block. Two ex-
cellent bands furnished continuous music dur
ing the evening; the atten ance was immense
both OF skaters and ON lockers, ana the exhi-
hilton of fancy and trick bicycle riding by the
experts, the Wilson Brothers, surpassed any
thing heretofore presented in this city Gen.
eral skating was suspended at nine O'Clock,
and the Wilson's appeared and performed
countless difficult feats upon their "silent
steed." No description could possibly give an
ADEQUATE idea of the excellence OF this part Of
the entertainment; the frequent interchange
of position; the flying leaps one over the 9TH
or as the responsive "Star" machine circled or
swayed from side to side, while every possible
mount and discount, pedailing forward or
back aud somersaulting, varied 10 bewidering
succession the movements of the Dlucky riders
The start from absolute rest, with the bicy-
clists, facing one another, and the one driving
backwards while the other by leap from the
floor seated himself, were among the feats
which provoked the most enthusiastic applause
The antics of the Dude amateur we're the
source of great amusement, the "headers" Ton
the ordinary machine employed) by the gre
tesquely costumed rider, proving irresistibly
comical. This being one of the features of the
exhibition at the matinee given this afternoon
is sure to amuse the children who attend, as
well as adults. The last and best exhibition
occurs this evening, and the many attractions
offered will draw another immense crowd

The repairs that have been making for some
time past to the organ in the First Parish
church are now completed, and our readers
will be pleased to learn that this organ which,
by its full rich tone, for a generation pleased
all who have heard 1T, is now in as fine con-
dition as ever before.
1t was built by Messrs Hall & Labagh of
New York, 10 1853. Lately, lille the tone has
been but slightly impaired, the action has been
gradually getting into very bad condition. 90
bad in fact that during the past Winter had
not the church been warned for the Saturday
afternoon lectures it would probably have
been impossible to use it for the SUNDAY SER
vices.
Under these circumstances the par,sb COM
mittee some two months ago placed the organ
IN the hands OF Messrs. Labagh & Kemp of
New York, successors to the firm who built it,
giving them carte blanche to make all repairs
required.
Inc workmen have been here for the past
three weeks and have been under the SUPER
lptendence of Mr.. Kemp, the junior member
Oh the nrm. Mr.. Kemp is personally much
ateached 10 this organ, as he was foreman for
Messrs Hall & Lsbagh at the time it was
oulit, aud 1t was the first large organ of whose
construction he had charge He has therefore
spared no pains to put it in thorough order.
The repairs made include entire new action
ana new keyboard; the pipes and bellows
nave been meDded and several improvements
IN detail, which have been brought forward
during the thirty years which have elapsed
since 1t was built, have been introduced The
music at this old historic church is now finer
than ever before.
The voice of Mrs. Ellison, the new contralto,
blends tiuely with the other voices of the choir
aud is much liked.
The organ is under charge of Mr.. Kotz-
seminar, as it has been for years. and it is
therefore unnecessary to say that It's best
qualities are being brought cut to the fullest
extent
