ONE NIGHT IN SALEM.-Alba
heywood is coming and will be i'm
salem tonight. 1t is probably saf.
10 say that this will I've the best
troupe that has been in Salem for
some time. Salem has been deluded
a few times bv some company com.
ing along and claiming to he first
class and charging high price for
admission, and when they were gone
me people were disgusted with
them. The society editor uf the
JOURNAL has watched the press
comments on this troupe closely
since 1t has been on this caas', not
the remarks that have preceded the
play, but those that had oeen yiven
after it had played aud gone. The
press notices which are worth some
thing and IN general can be relied
on are very favorable to this troupe
The concert embraces very wide
range OF aniusemeuts. Miss Miller
is at the head of her prof, ssion as d
violinist and Alba Heywood Is 9
clever imrersonator. Many place
him as rival to Sol Smith Russell
who magnetized the world with his
ability in the mimic art. The troupe
includes fourteen musicians anC
artists, embracing vocal aud instru
mental music on various in-tru.
ments. The program has range
enough to please the rude and tn,
erudite, but the aim of the concert Il
to instruct as well az to amuse.

Grade Up Marion Square.

Mr.. EDITOR: Before the city
council proceeds to put a fountain in
Marion square l would respectfully
suggest that they have it graded
and filled up somewhat, so that it
be not covered with mud holes, and
that the old dead trees be taken out
that the good ones may be preserved.
1t would be well also to do some
trimming and thinning out, that
sunshine and good air may be ad-
mitted for the promotion of grass
growing and the evaporation of its
now perpetual dampness. Until
these things are done, the planting
of nice fountain in Marion square
would be like putting gold rings in
a hogs nose. On THE SQUARE.

There seems to be no doubt that the vot-
ers Of Washington county have given an
overwhelming endorsement to the PROPOSE
ton TO assist the Short Line Railroad. The
vote is not quite so unanimous as the
Aroostook vote. utthere is not much differ
ence. The people of the Eastern counties
have been anxiously waiting for this road a
great many years. Time and time again
they have thought its realiz alton close at
hand, only to be disappointed. Now they
have the matter almost entirely in their own
control, and there is good prospect that the
project Will 90 through. When this line and
the Aroostook are completed Eastern Maine
will be pretty well provided for, and the
"boom" ought to begin.
