Last evening delegation of between 80,

K. ftp, of Biddeford, paid a fraternal visit
to Longfellow Lodge, to witness the work of

excellent collation. was served to the visiting

GORIIAM.

The benefit concert for Mrs. Ada Cary
Sturgis at the Methodist church, owing to
the bad walking, was not so largely attended
as it ought to have been. Mrs. Sturgis has
been very generous in singing for the people
of this village, and it was hoped her benefit
would call out crowded house.
The concert was artistically a success
Mrs. Sturgis and Miss Sterling were both in
excellent voice. and their selections were adj
mirably rendered. The reading by Miss
Laughton and the cornet playing by Mr.
Frank Moore were spoken of in the highest
terms, while Mr.. Cheney confirms the excel
lent impression made by him as an accompa-
mist at former concert here some weeks ago
1t is hoped we shall hear the same artists
again before long, when the weather will be
more propitious. They will doubtless attract
a large audience.
The Maine Union Holiness Association
commenced here in the M. E. Church at 10 a.

The Augusta Journal says: Commander
S. W. Lane is making arrangements for the
transportation of those who attend the
National Encampment, G. A. R., in San
Francisco next August. He has communi-
Gated with all the lines of railroad On the
route and will be prepared to name rates
shortly. A Pullman car and sleeping and
dining car accommodations will be secured
the rates to be at a reasonable figure. Gov
ROBBIE will undoubtedly attend, together
with several members of his staff. Some
ten or dozen from Skowhegan will make
the trip, and probably Hon. Mark Emery Of
Portland and Dr. A. c. Hamlin of Bangor.
The departure will be the 23d or oath of July,

campment

post office.

Complaint has several times been made Of
failure to distribute and deliver the Western
mails arriving at this Office between u M
and pm. as early as during the last summer
and fall This delay is due mainly to the fact
that since October 18th, the railroad shedule
time of arrival at the station has been fifteen
minutes later Q205 instead of 11.50) than
previously.
In addition, however, is the fact that the
mails this winter have. been unusually
heavy so that the clerk of this Office who is
detailed to meet the down train at North
Berwick, and whose duty it is to assert and
prepare the Portland mail matter for each
letter carrier and to so arrange all the mat
ter for this office as to facilitate immediate
delivery, has frequently not been able to go
through it all, thus making it necessary to
complete it in this office.
We have generally been able by the prompt
and immediate employment or the whole Of
flee force to overcome this latter delay, but
of course the fifteen minutes difference in
schedule time cannot be made good here.
The noon mails by Boston trains are due at
this Office at 1920 p. m. }. S. PALMER.

mon, charged with having made fraudu-
lent certificate of the date of birth of one
Robert L. Sargent, his minor ward, in sup
port of the minors claim for pension as a
child of a soldier of the late war. The testi-
mony showed that this certificate was granted

trouble About opera seats.

A good deal of complaint was made by
purchasers of admission tickets to the opera
yesterday afternoon because the ushers put
them in seats in the galleries which they
were afterwards turned out of by holders of
coupon tickets for the same seats Mr..
Stockbridge tells us that he told the ushers
that the seats were all coupon, or reserved
seats, so that they had no right to put ad-
mission ticket holders in then, and he doubts
very much if they did. Furthermore he says
that number of purchasers of Tuesday
tickets who did not use them that night tried
to occupy the seats they represented yester-
day
