The mischevous "Peck's Bad Boy" will
show himself at Granite Hall on Wednesday
evening, OF him the Washington ID. c.
Post speaks:
"Peck's Bad Boy" resumed his mischievous
career at the National last night, to the evil
dent qualification of large audience. The
play has been partially reconstructed and re-
written since its former production here, some
of the old scenes having been dropped and
new ones introduced. Last nights cast con-
tanned but few names that appeared on the pro-
gramme last spring, but the new company is
on the whole stronger than its predecessor.
Master Harry Kelley sustained the title role
with diabolical spirit and managed to keep all
on the stage in make-believe hot water, while
he kept the audience in unmistakably genu-
inc good humor at all times. Chas. Willard,
as the elder Peck. made an entirely satisfac-
tory victim, and won a good share of the ap
plause. The piece supplies an agreeable fund
of amusement for an evening, and requires no
intellectual exertion on the part of the au-
1ience to appreciate it to the fullest.

The Portland Small uoX Case.

The name of the man i'll with smallpox at
Portland is James ID. Kimball, brakeman
on the Portland & Rochester railroad. The
Cumberland House where the man boarded
has been thoroughly fumigated and disinfect-
ed. BY direction of the Portland Board of
Health thd following circular was issued to
the people:
The Board of Health through its chairman desires
to state that no undue anxiety need exist in the pub
lie mind regarding the recent OF variolod at the
Cumberland House. The young man had been vac
cnated and the disease thereby materially modified in
its vrulence. Neither had the eruption reached that
stage at which contagon might be most feared.
Strict measures OF prevention have been adopted and
will be vigorously enforced. Meanwhile the board
asks the public to refrain from circulating giving
credence to idle rumors or exaggerated reports All
suspected cases will be thoroughly investigated and
the community will receive the most complete pro-
lection possible.

Chairman Board of Health.

The matter of the seizure of the Togus
beer at Portland and the claiming of 1t last
week by the officers of the National Military
Home, is receiving considerable attention
from the legal fraternity and others in this
section. The main question at issue is that
OF the jurisdiction of the State courts over
liquor transported through State territory, in
tended for sale on United States grounds. II
the State has such jurisdiction then the sez-
ure was rightfully made; otherwise
the beer must be released. In 1871
Section 1891 of the Revised Statutes of
the United States was passed adopting the
Maine prohibition law, and Judge Webb held
AT Bath that this became a law of the United
states for all places within the State, coded
10 and under the jurisdiction of the General
government, and that the State had no Juris-
diction on such lands. This being the case,
'hen the United States holds Jurisdic-
uon over its own territory, and an able law
yer OF this city thinks that the State has ne
right to interfere with beer or liquor which
being transported within its own bounda-
RES as in the case of the Togus beer, to be
soid on United States ground. But it was
siaimed by the counsel of the State at Port
'ahd that the beer not having reached the
grounds of the Home, aud being found in
cumberland county, kept and deposited with
."'ent that it should be sold in violation of
"a" In this State, that it was liable to seiz-
1ie' as contraband goods. and should be de-
s'S'ed forfeited to the city of Portland.

There is now bright prospect that the

for several years, will again be operated on
a firm basis. Several weeks ago Mr.. ID.
Cowau, one of the leading wooden manufac-
turers of Lewiston. leased it for short time
and has been running the yarn department.
1t now turns out that corporation of five
well known business men of the Androscog-
gin Spindle City, of whom Mr.. Cowan is
one, is in process of formation. with view
OF purchasing the property of the owners,
several of whom reside in this city. If a
bargain is concluded of which there is every
prospect. the new corporation will make
generous improvements upon the mill, add
some new machinery and operate it to Its
fullest capacity. One of the prospective
new owners will probably manage the mill,
making his residence in Readteld.
