Amusements.

Next Thursday evening we are to have
the old time play "Uncle TOMS Cabin
presented on the stage of Granite hall. Be-
low is what the Albany Argus of Oct. u, has
to say of the company.
''Uncle Toms Cabin" was given at the Le-
land last evening in the presence of very
good sized audience, that seemed to enjoy the
unfolding of the play as well as if it was the
occasion of an original production 1t does
seem rather strange that this time-worn
drama should retain such firm hold on the
Electrically inclined public, but such is the
fact and there is no gainsaying it. The pro-
duction last evening was above the average,
and was heartily applauded. The jubilee
singers, in particular, being singled out for
special marks of approval. This evening will
bring the last performance.

A Warming.

The modes of deaths approach are various,
and statistics show conclusivelv that more
persons die from diseases of the Throat and
Lungs than any other. 1t is probable that
everyone, without exception, receives vast
numbers of Tubercle Germs into the system
and where these germs fall upon suitable soil
they start into life and develop, at first slowly
and are shown by slight tickling sensation in
the throat and if allowed to continue their
ravages they extend to the lungs producing
Consumption and to the head, causing Ca
tarrh. Now all this is dangerous and if al
lowed to proceed will in time cause death.
At the onset you must act with promptness;
allowing a cold to go without attention is
dangerous and may lose you your life. As
soon as you feel that something is wrong with
your Throat, Lungs or NOstrils. obtain
bottle of Boschee's German Syrnp. 1t will
give YOU immediate relief.

Chief Justice Peters left the Augusta
House, yesterday, after dinner, minus his
shiny silk hat In place of it he was obliged
to wear a little, soft white hat which was left
behind. Judge Peters Immediately sent on
to Bangor for a new one. His Honor didn't
ask any questions. 1t was sufficient to know
that the House was filled with members of
the democratic State convention. Some del
egate presumably finding his hat too small,
appropriated the one owned by the Chief
Justice Doubtless that identical tile did
good service in the-air at the nomination OF
Mr. Putnam.

Maine Democrats,

AUGUSTA, Me-, May 22.-The Demo
cratic State Convention met this morn
ing, and was called to order by s. s..
Jones, OF the State Committee. A. A..
Power was chosen chairman, and made
brief address, advocating continuance
OF the administration OF President Cleve-
land.
The following were elected delegates
at-large Payson Tucker, Arthur Sewell,
X. q. Allen and James Tobin. Hon. W..
l.. Putnam, of Portland, was nominated
for Governor. The platform approves
the efforts OF the Democrats in Congress
to pass bill which, in the language OF
President Cleveland, will relieve the
people from unnecessary taxation, having
due regard to the capital invested and
to the workingmen employed in American
industries and says; ave do not advo-
cate free trade, but favor and desire a
revision OF the present unjust and bur
densome tariff" The course OF the
President and Secretary Bayard in con-
nection with the Fisheries treaties is ap-
proved, as is also the Cleveland adminis-
tration. The majority reported clause
demanding the repeal of the State Pro-
hibition law, in the interests Of good So
ciety and temperance. This was
objected to and the minority re-
port adopted, scathingly denouncing
the Republican party for hypocrisy,
duplicity and insincerity in combining
with violators Of the law which they pre-
tend to support, to secure for such
violators immunity from prosecution,
and declaring that such practices cor
rrupt public morals, engender disrespect
for law and encourage dishonesty
bribery and perjury, while the party en-
gaging in them is worthy of the contempt
and condemnation of all good citizens.
Adjourned.

general sheridan III.

CHrcAao, March 22.-A Daily Neps
Washington special says: Ever since his
return from the West last Saturday,
General Sheridan has been suffering
from nervous prostration, and the fact
that there was consultation of phys
icians at his house this afternoon excited
grave apprehension among his lends.
DIR. Yarrow told me this evening that
there was nothing in the Generals con-
dition calculated to excite apprehension
and that he was getting along nicely.
and would in all probability be
out of the house and at
his office again in a few days. Colonel
Sheridan said, "rhe General is not very
i'll; he is not so i'll as he has been grea.
many times in his life and we are not at
all concerned about it. He has Just re-
tnrned from a very quick and hard trip to
the west, spending FIVE nights on sleep
ing cars, and when he returned was
thoroughly tired out. He had also ex-
posed himself to the sun more than was
wise in Cincinnati, and this had rather
prostraied him. All he needs is rest
and that he is getting. There is no occa-
sion for alarming reports"
