MUSIC AND DRAMA.
1892.


The matinee and evening performance by the
1892 company drew excellent audiences to City
Hail. Saturday. The audiences were highly
pleased When Mr.. Rice's Surprise Party
comes to Portland again they may expect
crowded houses.
The company will play in Providence the
first three nights of this week, Thursday in New
London, Friday in Chelsea, Saturday at Lynn,
and open at the Hollis street theatre, Boston,
Monday, December 26th.
She Couldn't Marry Three.
The above title seemed to arouse the curiosity
of the New York public, so much SO that on the
opening night the house was packed to the
doors. The success uf the play was instantan-
eous, and during the entire New York engage
ment the theatre was crowded. The play is an
unqualified success; the scenery beyond any
thing seen yet; the company powerful and
evenly balanced one, and Miss Lillian Kennedy
as the heroine .tBess," presents characterize
ton which fer histrionic ability has never been
surpassed on the American stage.

ment "a Night With the Dead,o at Portland

IN THE CRY.

WANDERED i, city great and OLD.
Al morn, at noon and when the evening

And around my spirit gathered Ike spell
Tho mysteries aad tho memories OF its
years.
IL Victories and fair women. all tho life,
Tho 10Y. tn, power, III passion and the
s'rfe,
is alghs Of hand-locked lovers, and Its
tears.
And wncrso In that mighty city, fro,
AID with clear eyes and eager heart, !

strong,
And all III, spiri, OF humanity,
sofs IA a child aud potent as roi,
Drew re II tom., and wrapi mo like song.
