Yesterday afternoon, the Wilkinson opera
company produced the Mascot at the opera
house in really fine manner. The Pippo of
Mr.. Wilkinson was a most excellent charac-
terization, and the Prince Lorenzo of Mr..
Fisk and the Rocco of Mr.. Slattery were
very amusing. The character of the Court
Physician was taken by Mr.. Albert Lang,
and was finished piece of acting. Miss
Brown was fair Bettina, and Miss Parker
an excellent Fiametta. Miss Perle Dudley
presided at the piano in faultless manner.
The opera is costumed in fine shape, and
the choruses are good. The Mascot will re-
ceive but four more representations, the
Chimes of Normandy being produced Thurs
day afternoon and evening and the rest of
the week

A Word to the LaborIng Man.

To the Editor Of the Press:
As the political situation is somewhat
mixed as regards the laboring men, veiewing
the situation from a laborers standpoint 1
feel it inc umbent upon ill laborers to be not
over-profuse in their promises. They as yot-
ers have lived long enough to learn that can
didates will promise the earth while canvass
ing, and that after election will refuse to
recognize the power that placed them in Of
fee.
Leaving organized associations out of the
matter the rights of citizens should by re-
spected. In the matter of our local legisla-
ture, workingmen should see that ten-hour
bill is passed. Applicable to the State of
Maine, enlist your friends in the movement,
and unless they accede to your request in
that light, do not stand by them in other re-
spects.
The law above referred to should be SO word
ed that no woman or child should be allowed
or compelled to work over ten hours in any
factory or mill within the limits of the State
OF Maine. By SO doing you will confer bene-
careful that you are not led away by Interior
promises. Select men who whilst not stand
ing against the industries of the State as
properly controlled by capital shall see to it
IIldI tuo lduoIcIS OI Ilo OUdCe Sudll nave tlioil
share of protective legislation.
Bythus pledging the nominees of the differ
ent parties you compel them either to accept
or reject the legislation which you ask for,
and by so doing you place them in a, re-
sponsible position, the Sinking of which. re-
sponsibility will stand against them for time
to come.
The opportunity to advance your interests
is now open to you.. Look and see that your
interests as laborers are carefully conserved;
That action in your favor shall be looked
for. Seek for the redress Of real evils, and
leave imaginary ones to those who live. on
excitement and the prostitution of working
men to political blind issues. If after doing
this defeat should come to you, you will have
the. satisfaction of knowing that you have
weighed your promised friends and that they
have been wanting, and in that light you
shall construe their action in future demands
for your patronage.
In conclusion, Mr.. Editor, trust that
these few words of advice will be. received
with all due sincerity which the writer IN his
simplicity intends to convey.

and fingers were going with wonderful rap
idity. Amidst all this seeming life and mo

Horse Tanning.

Wednesday evening Prof. 0. r. Gleason
the celebrated horse tanner, will begin Sc
ries of exhibitions at the Bijou Rink. The
New York Spirit of the Times. says:
"The reigning sensation in the amusement line
is Prof. Oscar r. Gleason's nightly exhibition OF
horse tanning at Cosmopolitan Hall. Crowded
houses have greeted the Professor since the open
ing, the novel and instructive entertainment at
tracing the best class of auditors. Since the
days of Rarey no horse educator has met with
such universal public appreciation as the Pro-
lessor, and no man in his line has received more
attention from the press. His success as horse
breaker is truly marvellous. Perfect fearlessness
is the distinguishing characteristic of Prof Glea-
son, and this, coupled with the various restrain
ing appliances used by him, constitute the secret
of his powers.
The entire subsection of the man-eating Cana
dian stallion was masterpiece of work. The
task was formidable one, as in the course of his
experience the Professor never met more diff
cult subject Since his stay with us he has cured
old and hardened kickers, runaWayS. had shoers,
and horses afflicted with the various devilment
peculiarto the genus. His system OF treatment is
humane, seeking to cure through the fears OF the
animal"

George Goldsmith, Of Pennington, came to
this city in the Pullman train July 23d. to
spend few days at Peaks Island. Since
that time his friends have heard nothing
from him, and have now taken measures to
ascertain if possible where the missing
youth is. Goldsmith is IS years old, five
feet, six or seven inches tall, rather slim,
and has smooth face He took with him
two suits of clothes, and had valise, and a
guitar in box. He probably wore a check
ed suit upon arrival here. Any information
as to his whereabouts may be left at the pc
lice station. The young man had good sit
uation, and his relatives are unable to assign
any cause for his strange disappearance.
