The Cadets brill and BaIl

Tonight occurs the annual event which ia
always eagerly awaited by the people of Port
land, and which has never failed to prove a
brilliant success. We refer to the fifteenth an
mail drill and ball OF the Portland Cadets.
The energetic young men composing this lead
ing military organization have made great
preparations for this evening, and there are
indications that more pleasing entertainment
will be witnessed than ever before.
The exhibition drill comprising company

Attitude of the EmpIoyes in Regard TO
the Reduction,

The men employed in the yard of the Grand
Trunk in this city have drawn up a remon-
STRANGE to the reduction in pay. This remon-
STRANGE is similar to that sent to General Man
ager Hickson by the men employed in the re-
pair shops. It will be mailed to Mr.. Hickson
to-day. The paper states that the men feel
unable to stand the reduction and protest
against the reduction in the March pay roll.
The men state that should the reduction go
into effect they shall severe their connection
with the company.
In regard to the March pay roll of which
mention is made, it seems that the road pays
the men about the middle of each month for
the money earned in the preceding month.
The reduction in wages was announced after
the March pay had been earned and as the
order ia understood here, it is the Intention TIC
make the several reductions begin in the
wages paid for that months work. This thu
employees claim is exceedingly unjust.
1t is reported here remonstrance has been
started at Island Pond and will be sent here
for additional signatures. The men in the
car shops have as yet received no answer to
their remembrance which was sent eff last
Tuesday. 1t is expected that the men will
receive their money on the 18th inst, aud
they expect then to ascertain what is to be
the policy of the road.

Locking for work.

On her last trip, the State of Maine brought
about $50 people, mostly men, from the Prov
inces. The men were mechanics and farm
laborers coming to tue States in search of en-.
ployment during the summer months. Large
numbers Of these people come to New Eng
land every spring, and return to their Cansdi-
an homes late in the autumn. This year ow-
ing to the late spring the emigration did not
begin as early as usual, and the parties now
arriving are consequently larger than has been
the rule. 1t is estimated that thousands of this
class come here every year.
This annual journey of our provincial neigh
bors is evidently the cause of the rumors to the
effect that many Canadians ara fl eing to this
country to escape consumption in the event of
war between Engloud and Russia.

the groceries: but that if he did it was only for
the fist few items amounting 10 S2.S4 and that
those have been paid for by payment of 50 on
the bill by Mrs. Colby. The plaintiff claims that
the 50 was paid on an old bill which he had against
Mrs. Colby's husband. Verdict for the plaintiff
for $1,000.
After the rendition of the verdict, Mr. Virgin
said he had just learned that relative of the plain
tiff was npon the jury and requested that tn jury
be enquired OF. 1t turned out that one of the ju-
rors is cousin 10 Mr.. Taylor, the plaintiff and
counsel for the defendant moved to set aside the
verdict on that ground.
Judge Bonney expressed his surprise that Juror
should remain upon the panel without disclosing
his relationship for he had distinctly stated to the
jurors in the previous that il any them were
reia ed to either of the parties to that suit or
any other suit within the degree of second cousin
they were disqualified from serving; that by the
stupidity of the juror the time of the court and

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
THE SILVER KING.


The "Silver King" one of the strongest and
best melo-dramas now on the stage, was pre-
sented at Portland Theatre last night by the
Boston Theatre company. The piece received
a thorough description in our columns when
first produced here last autumn. The acting
last night was very strong while the scenic
effects were remarkably fine. The PRINCIPAL
situations of the piece were quickly appreciated
by the audience whore applause was long and
generous. MIR. Frazer Coulter was exceeding
~ effective in his part and was several times
called before the curtain. Mr. d. j. Maguinnis
as the old servant was well received, and the
parts taken by Messrs. Burbeok, Eberle.
