THE PORTLAND ADVERTISER.

THE PORTLAND ADVERTISER.
Mr.. G. IL. Watkins writes from Portland to
the oxford Democrat 1t has often seemed
strange to me, that the Portland Advertiser IS
so little known in oxford county. 1t has one
of the abest editors in Maine, Mr.. II. W. Rich
ardson, and Mrs. Elizabeth Akers Allen is a
regular contributor. The selections on the first
and fourth pages are always well made. and
furnish interesting reading-while the editorial
column on the second page contains more real
chit than columns upon columns In many other
papers. One seldom finds such well construct
ed, condensed sentences, as those in which Mr..
Richardson deals. The Advertiser Is doing a
large and growing business. New offices have
been fitted up, and editor Richardson has two
large, well arranged rooms, for bis own private
library and literary work. Mr.. Richardson
writes many historical articles In addition to
his editorial work--and wonder how human
being can accomplish so much in given time
as he does, and yet always keep calm and cool.
He Is never in hurry. We believe II Is gen.
orally conceded that the Advertiser is the ablest
evening paper in Maine, and we think the
word evening might well be omitted IN this
connection. Ed. Journal.
A BROTHER JOURNALIST AND POET.
An old gent, whom we recognized as brother
journalist, and q poet as well, Mr.. Sanford,
editor of the Hartland Pioneer, marched into
lhn Advertiser office rev days ago, ana AS ne
was looking decidedly diapdated, having one
arm bandaged and supported in a sling, one
eye discoored, and his whole appearance sug-
&c sting that he had met with rough usage, as
though he had slandered somebody and had
just met the aggrieyed party, we naturally
asked him how he came to be in that condition.
lie then told us how he was on his way to a
funeral In Canaan, when his horse took fright
ut cat, or something in the road; how he was
thrown violently to the ground, aud after lying
senseless for quite long time, awoke 10 con-
sciousness to find one of his shoulders dislocat-
ed and himself all broken up otherwise; how
be hired twenty teams to scour the towns Of
Caiaa', Benton and Pittsfield in search of his
missing horse and how the horse was found
near the scene of the accident, after they had
hunted aIl day, ETC., etc. He also informed us
that the Pioneer was temporarily suspended.
Whether or not the suspension was owing to
| lack IN the editorial department of the proven
bal editors propensity to prevaricate he did

The Late SCHUYLER CoIfnx.


The death Of Vice-President Schuyler
Colfax removes from life man who occu-
pied a conspicuous position in the affairs of
this country. He was born in New York
city March 80, 1923. His father died be-
fore he came into this world. His grand
father was, It Is said, the commandant of
Washington's body guard. Mr.. Colfax did
not have many educational advantages.
Most Of his schooling seems to have been
received in the first ten years Of his life.
His mother married Mr.. Matthews, and
from ten to the time he was thirteen years
of age young Colfax worked in his step
fathers store.
In 1886 the family emigrated to Indiana,
and settled in New Castle, st. Joseph
County. During the next five years he,
Schuyler, was clerk in a country store. Ia
1S41 his stepfather was elected County
Auditor and moved TO South Bend.
Schuyler was appointed his deputy, and at
the same time began to study law. After
serving two years as Senate reporter for
the Indianapolis State Journal he estab-
lshed, in 1sl5, weekly paper at South
Bend called the 81. Joseph Holley Register,
Of which he was editor and proprietor
He is credited with editing and managing
the Register with vigor and ability, making
it one Of the most influential papers in the
State at tho time.
His paper was devoted to the interests of
the Whig party, He was a delegate to the
National Whig Convention, which met in
Philadelphia in 1sdS aud nominated Gen
eral Taylor for the Presidency, and was
made secretary of the convention. In 1850
he was chosen a member of the Indiana
State Constitutional Convention, in which
he spoke and voted against the clause pro-
hibiting free colored persons from entering
the State. In 1852 he was candidate for
Congress and was defeated by majority of
only PIG, though his district was strongly
Democratic. In 1852 he was delegate to
the Whig National Convention at Balti-
more, which nominated General Scott, and
again was secretary of the convention.
This was the ending of the Whig party
and the birth of the Republican party Mr.
Colfax Joined that party and was very
prominent in his support of General FIRE.
mont, its first Presidential candidate In
IcOf ue Wdo clcCteu W NOnBTeSSj anu re-
elected for tho six following terms. He
was elected Speaker of the House in 1858,
1865 and 1867. In 1868 he was nominated
for Vice-President on the ticket with Gen
eral Grant. In 1872 he was again candi-
date for President, receiving 314l
votes, against Henry Wilson's 3siI, the lat
ter being nominated ou the first ballot aud
elected in the subsequent Presidential cleo
tien.
Mr. Collax then retired from public life
and took to the lecture platform. His
favorite lecture was personal Reminis-
cences of Abraham Lincoln" He was a
very entertaining tallrer aud made very
good living out OF his lectures. He was
remarkable man. He attained public
prominence at an age when most mon are
but beginning to go up the hill. He was
only forty-six years of age when he was
inaugurated Vice President

Miss Cornella Van Aukeu and Barrett II.
Van Auken, jr. Mrs. Van Auken wore
white velvet en- traine with low corsage,
and white satin petticoat embroidered in
pearls. Her ornaments were pear-shaped
pearls and solitaire diamonds. Her hair
was simply arranged-its only ornament
beng butterfly OF gems. Her dress was
in perfect keeping with Its wearer, but
added nothing to her natural quiet dignity
and commanding presence. Miss Van
Auken wore decollete bodice OF black
satin, skirt of black tulle, caught up with
jacqueminot reses-a Worth costume. Miss
Cornelia Van Auken wore q pink satin
bodice decollete, with skirts Of delicate pink
tullo sprinkled with gold, and ornamentod
with vibrating branches of silver daisies and
wheat. Speaker aud Mrs. Carlisle were
present; also a number of the most dstin-
guished Senators and Members and their
wives.

On Monday evening next Nine. Adelaide
Ristori, the great tragedienne, will appear
at Albaughs Grand Opera House, the occa-
sion being her first appearance in this city
on her farewell tour of America. The rep
ertoire selected by Mme. Ristori embraces
Elizabeth, Queen of England" "Mary
Stuart" marie Antoinette" and MAC
beth, and in these roles the great artiste
has won some of her most brilliant sue
cesses. The week is an intellectual treat,
for which every educated person should feel
indebted TO Manager Albaugh, and it is safe
TO predict that the eminent actress will
receive at the hands of the citizens OF the
National Capital an ovation worthy of her
great genius. Tho sale Of seats for the Ris-
tori season will be opened at the box-office
at the Grand Opera House Tomorrow,
Thursday morning, at o'clock, and from
the extended inquiry which has been made
in this connection it is evident that the
advance sale will be very large.
The Evening critic., 1885-01-14

Theatrical people have good many curl
Gus superstitions and omens of good luck or
i'll fate. Manager Herzog has been particu-
larly fortunate since his advent in Wash
ington and the attaches of the museum at
tribute the good business to Herzog's
luck" An inquiry by an inquisitive
CRITIC reporter led to the explanation that
"the luck" was colored man who was the
first person to buy gallery ticket at the
box.ofice on the opening night, and has not
failed to attend nights performance since.
Regularly every night he appears In front
of the museum about $3.50 and awaits the
opening of the gallery-box window.
Purchasing his ten.cent cardboard he passes
30 his usual seat, and reappears promptly
the next night to invest his dime.
Speaking to an usher about the matter,
the polite attendant expressed himself as a
firm believer in "the luck.'
1--WE watched the first night" he said,
ito see who came in first. As soon as we
saw it was negro we knew the place
would be a success"
The pencil-pusher smiled incredulously,
wbeIeup0n the wearer ofthe badge and the
buttonhole bouquet continued:
"lf it had been squint-eyed or hump.
backed man the museum would have been
dead failure"
A gentleman In the box Office said
EVERY class OF the profession have their
whims. Some years ago Adam Forepaugh
lost his entire n,enagerie by fire. He had a
presentiment of evil the evening before on
seeing a black cat run across his path
way.
when Laura Keene managed the Chest
nut Street Theatre in Philadelphia man
came to be known as The regular He at
tended every performance at tho theatre
His attendance actually became an annoy
ance to all hands. He was dead bad luck
the season proving most disastrous"
Before departing our commissioner pro-
pounded conundrum TO the treasurer;
why don't you put the luck on the
free ''st 2"
That would break the charm" replied
the custodian of HerzOgs cash.

The ATTRACTION al tho ComIgue.

The z.Santley Troupe is drawing
well at the Comique. good, clean per-
formance is given. The Cincinnati En-
q'tirer of recent date says Of it,; "The
troupe gave an excellent show, and Is the
best that M. b. ,Leavitt has ever sent to
Cincinnati a good deal of its excellence un-
doubtedly due to the manner In which the
show is put together by tho manager, Mr..
James Collins. The musical interlude in
tToduced the majority Of the ladies of the
company in parlor speeialties, their cos
TUNES being in good taste and Of elegance.
The feature of this portion of the bill was
the really fine vocal Efforts Of Mile. Ru-
dolphi, who has voice Of much power
and sweetness. Tho burlesque, "Orpheus
and Eurydice," as arranged by Mr.. James
Collins introduced handsome Florence
Harcourt as 0rpheus, with the entire COM
pany in support. The extravaganza pleased,
the girls were all pretty and shapely, aud
the scenery good. The piece is filled with
catchy music, and in ono of the scenes a
number Of taking acts were introduced"

Manager Hackett and President Byrno,
OF the Brooklyn Club, have tho players
released by Cleveland, aud who are to bo
signed by Brooklyn when tho limited ten
days expire, corralod in the woods at q
point near Oil City, Pa The men arc all
disguised, and besides being under sur
veillance by corps Of Pinkerton's detect
ives, they arc also guarded by company
of tho Cleveland militia. The Cleveland
Herald Of yesterday says: "Tho men are too
honorable not to sign with Brooklyn"
This may be true, but thoy arc undor guard
all the same Cincinnati Enquirer.
The Boston Club has made Swartwood an
offer.
George Latham has signed with the Wiz
ginia Club.
Gilligan and Hines have not yet signed
with Providence.
The Providence Club opens tho season at
Norfolk, Va, on April /.
Bobert BlalSiston has signed TO play third
base with tho Buffalo Club in place of Jim
White, who has permanently retired from
the ball field. Conner who pitched for
the Boston Reserves last season, has also
signed with Buffalo, and Cullen, the
catcher Of tho Actives Of Reading, has an
offer from the same club.
LOulbVllle Will nave very SblOnB behul
this season. There are Eve batteries
Hecker and Sullivan, Reccius and Crotty,
Neaglc and Whiting, Baker and Cross and
Mayo and Noe. Kerns will play first,
Miller third and Mclaughlin short stop.
A new player Is to be secured for second
base, and Maskrey, Browning and Cline
will cover the outfeld.
Nearly all tho professionals and even
many amateurs are now hard at work In
the gymnasiums.
Baseball playing by the Cubans is not a
success, and they are contemplating hiring
some Americans.
A Canadian league will be formed next
season which will be composed of tho fol-
lowing cities: London, st. Thomas, Wood
stock, Toronto, Hamilton, Petrolia aud
Guelph. Petrolia claimed the champion
ship last season by defeating tho Hamilton
Club three out of five games played.
Boston will play ball all winter q ground
90x300 feet having been laid out in the 1n-
stituto building.
The agreement between tho Brooklyn
Club and the players released by the Cleve
land Club is simply worthless. In order tC
guard against such a case as this the Amer
lean Association passed rule prohibiting
such agreements, and offenders arc liable to
a heavy fne.
Boyle, of the ST. Louis Unions, who was
expelled by the Actives, OF Reading, fol
jumping his contract will make applica-
tion for reinstatement at the next meeting
Of the arbitration committee. Boyles de-
fense is that the Actives owed him money,
and the directors told him to go If he could
get more money.
Have you heard from st. Louis ?" is the
latest baseball "phrase."
