The citizens of Augusta are indebted to
Calanthe Lodge, K. Of P. for rare treat
in the coming uf Jules Levy and his concert
company. Mr.. Levy was in Bangor last
week, and we clip the following from the
Bangor Commercial
A large and appreciative audience greeted
Mr.. Jules Levy and the members of his con-
cert company on their appearance last even
ing in the first Of the series of three operate
concerts to be given by the company at the
Opera House. The appearance in this city
of Mr.. Levy and his company has been
looked forward to by music loving people
with anticipation of much pleasure and they
were not disappointed. In fact the audience
were greatly delighted and pleased as the
generous applause and frequent encores ac-
corded Mr.. Levy and the others testifes.
Mr. Levy's reputation as the first cornetist of
the country is sufficient to attract large
audience and the other members of the COM
pany are also excellent in their parts and
give an entertainment that it is a treat to en-
joy.
Cushnoc Heights appears to be rapidly
growing section of the city. A large num-
Der of new buildings have been erected in
that vicinity this season. There appears to
be large amount of available land about
there and when the new mill is completed
and in operation there will doubtless be
large growth in that direction, as many new
buildings will have to be erected to accom-
modate the increase in our population.

"Do hydrants effect insurance rates?' said
the insurance man, Wednesday. Certainly
they do. In the limits of hydrant service, an
other ear is added to the duration of all pol
ices. In other words, the hydrants enable
you to insure for five years as cheap as you
could for four years before That's what
the hydrants do in the city suburb.
