PortIand,s Hospitality.

No severer test of the hospitality of any
community could be applied than that to
which the people of the Forest City were
subjected during the presence of the i'm
mense crowds of visitors of last week, and
we take pleasure in saying that no commu-
nifty could desire to meet the ordeal more
successfully. The homes of the citizens OF
Portland were literally thrown open to their
visitors and the heartiness of welcome per
vaded the city like an atmosphere.
Among the many citizens who extended
pleasant Inequalities and courtesies to visi-
tors from this city and section we may men,
ton. Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis Brown, Major and
Mrs. S. w. Thaxter, Mr.. and Mrs. f. E.
Boothby, Mr.. and Mrs. Weston f. Milliken,
Mr.. & Mrs. NJ. Trott King, Mr.. & Mrs. How
ard Gould, and there are many others who
might be mentioned with similar apprecia-
ton. President John Z. Dewitt of the I'M
ion Mutual Insurance Company, was most
generous III his efforts to promote the success
Of the occasion, furnishing handsome suite
of headquarters rooms for the Governor,
and also entertaining a large number of Wis
tors at his elegant residence on Deering
street, on the day of the parade, which they
were enabled to witness very enjoyably from
his grounds. On Friday evening very cor
uIdi ItceptloH was gwen 10 Ine sCdlilOrnla
delegation by General Charles P. Mattocks
and wife at their pleasant home, where Gov.
Robbie and daughter, and other prominent
Maine people, including several from Ban
gor, were invited to meet the guests from the
Pacific slope
Governor and Mrs. Robbie and the gentle
men Of his staff were indefatigable in their
attentions to visitors. and the excursion Civ
en- by them on our own neat little steamer
Cimbria, was one of the most delightful epi-
sGdes Of the week.
But it is impossible to attempt to detail a
hospitality that was as broad as the city linz
its and as generous as broad. Our guests
from outside the State join with the Maine
visitors at Portland in paying cordial tri-
butte to the heartiness of the welcome re-
eeeiyed by them in the Forest City. -[Bangor

The Rowdoin Crew.

The Bowdoin crew left Portland last week
for Worcester, where they will remain I'M
til the intercollegiate regatta is over. Fred
Plaisted, their professional coach, arrived in
Worcester, Saturday, and took the men in
hand Immediately, giving them some valua-
BILE and practical hints about the arrange
ment of their new boat, which they have
used but two days, not in the most satisfac-
tory manner to themselves or their trainer
1t is much lighter and narrower than the
one in which they did their preliminary
work, and the seats and outriggers were not
properly adjusted when they began their
work Saturday Plaisted overhauled the
boat Saturday afternoon, and the value of
his services was seen In the trial spin of the
crew when they were out for nearly an hour
working under the immediate direction of
their coach. They went off up the course at
a rafting pace, pulling about 38 strokes to
the minute. Their stroke, however, was
very defective, the oars being half out of the
water before the finish, and not being put in
well together to begin the stroke. The boat
rocked badly, and the recovery after the
stroke was faulty. When they came down
the lake they were pulling about "a strokes,
and keeping their boat in much better trim.
Near the finish they spurted to 40 strokes
again, splashing great deal of water and
again rocking their boat badly.I 1t must be
admitted, however, that the more this crew
is watched the more reason there is for be-
lieving that they will prove troublesome
competitors in the race if they work faith
fully for the ensuing week Their stroke
oar is good oarsman, even tempered and
patient, and if the men watch him closely
and initiate him faithfully it will be far
different crew next Saturday The men are
powerful, cheerful and determined, and their
stroke is one which, if brought to perfection,
are very well pleased with the course and
their accommodations, and Plaisted pro-
nounces it the best course in the country.

Mrs. casweII,s School.

Mrs. Caswell has done so much excellent
educational work in this city, that the an
nouncement of the re-opening of her parlor
classes and school for young ladies and
misses on September 10th will be greeted
with great satisfaction by all interested in
school work in this city. Mrs. Caswell un-
like too many teachers, takes especial care
that those branches of study on which a
true education must rest, receive proper and
sufficient attention, while the attractive
methods followed in the teaching of litera-
ture and the arts have made their study one
of the features of the school, In addition to
the advantages of the school, young ladies
from away are offered most pleasant home
during the school year. Full particulars of
the branches of study and the reopening of
the school may be found in another column

SUBURBAN NEWS,

The penalty prescribed by the statutes for
tramps is ga fine of $40 and costs of court,
or mot ''and'0 four months Imprisonment in
the county Jail at hard labor" This is now
pretty we'll understood by those who have
been infesting our town during the past six
weeks; particularly those fellows who were
before the court Saturday The story of
their doom will have salutary effect upon
others who were contemplating tramping
the town. Some of the cautious people of
Deering, who ridiculed the idea of putting
on strong police force and constructing a
safe lookup before the G. A. r gathering
in Portland, now say the town authorities
acted wisely, and they believe that the lives
and property of our citizens were protected
thereby. 1t is to be hoped that an efficient
night watch will be maintained throughout
the year, and every tramp captured will be
made to suffer the extreme penalty of the
law.

By the change of time ON the Maine Cen
trail and Portland g. Rochester roads Mon
day, seven trains, including the Flying Yam
kee, passed Woodford's station between the
hours of 1880 and 1.20 p. m. The number of
trains tally with the number of years which
the two gatemen stationed at the round
house have occupied their post of duty by
day and night. 1t is on the crossing of the
Portland horse railroad and main thorough
fare leading to the city. During those years
no person has received injury from passing
trains.
The eastern and western mails now arrive

The morning services at the Congregation
