MUSIC AND DRAMA.
MEN AND WOMEN.

Charles Frohman's company will, this
evening, present for the first time here the
great New York success, "Men and Wom-
en-" The authors, DeMille and Belasco,
the most prominent playwrlghts in Ameri-
ca. are also responsible for such charming
plays as "The Wife," "Lord Chumley," !"
"The Charity Ball." and others. Charles
Frohman's company Of players in "Men
and Women" says well known Chicago
writer, has unquestlonably made as great a
success as has ever been achieved by any
stock company since the days of the old
Union Square Theatre company.
MIDNIGHT ALARM.
Friday and Saturday, the thrilling
drama, "The Midnight Alarm" will be
played at Portland Theatre. As given this
season, the play is greatly improved by Le-
ander Richardson's revision, and its mana
ger has spared no expense in carrying out
the elaborate scene plot. Among the best
effects may be mentioned the East River
docks. the peculiar ''living clock" railroad
draw-bridge at Shark Run, the flight of the
fast express, No. 6engine house in New
York, and the run Of the steamer in the
midst Of fierce storm.
AUSTRIAN JUVENILE BAND.

BILE that there was no advance paper.
There were two songs fairly well sung, land
that about covers the bill.
THANKSGIVING PANToMIAdE.
During the THANKSGIVING holiday in Bos.
ton, the theatrical event most in keeping
with such time will, no doubt, be the
offering of John Stetson, manager OF the
Globe Theatre. 1t will be fairy panto.
mime, with all the wonderful transforms
tions. mechanical illusions. stage tricks,
acrobatic displays, and pretty ballets Incl.
one Of the famous Hanlon Brothers pro.
ductions. The spectacle was produced in
Boston last season, but since that time the
untiring zeal and busy brains of these
famous brothers have been at work on its
revision, until 1t is now said to be the most
novel affair of the kind that the stage has
yet known. The engagement was made
more than year ago, Mr.. Stetson being
| fully aware that no more c0ngenial en-
tsrtainment could be devised for such an
| occasion than one of the productions ema-
mating from the fertile brains Of these cele-
brated pantomimists. The Hanlons are
said to have done everything. In their
power to make "Superba" the most noted
effort 0fitheir brilliant end active career.
The scenes are more wonderful, the me-
chanical illusions more marvellous, and the
ideas of the merry clown more humorous
and ludicr0us than ever before. The cast
has been strengthened. whole scenes sub.
stituted, and scores of new mechanical
tricks introduced. (which, together with
| imported talent in the way of acrobatic
| features, are confidently predicted to make
| 1t one Of the most important of the attract
i've bookings of this house.

complainant, but contended as matter of
law that our statutes give the court no ju-

guilty. The case goes to the law court on

good. Many others might be quoted to the same

Being a ConstitutionaI Disease the
only, proper method of cure for catarrh is to
take a constitutional remedy like Hoods Sar-
saparilla, which, reaching every part OF the
body through the blood, does eliminate all
impurities and make the whole man healthier.
1t removes the cause Of the trouble and restores
the deceased membrane to proper condition.
