MUSIC AND DRAMA.

Janausehek as Marie Stuart Tonight.
Lewiston, Bangor and Augusta have
paid homage to the great Janauschek
this week, and Portland will finish Mad
ame's Maine circuit with three kperform
ances. This evening the theatre will be
crowded to see and hear the famous
tragedienne's great Interpretation of
Marie Stuart. Queen of Scots, tomorrow
night Lady Macbeth will be the bill and
grand Janauschek matinee perform
ance of Meg Merriles will be an addi-
tional feature of this, the last appearance
of Madame ON Portland stage. This is
Janauschek's final tour and it has been a
triumphant one.
Supported by that fine and polished
actor, Mr.. Edmund Collier, and a COM
pany of tragedy players of undoubted
worth, there is no wonder that Janau-
schek has been doing the largest bust
ness on this, her positive final tour.
All indications point towards a sue
cessful and profitable engagement in this
city, and again this is not to be wondered
at, for we have quite surfeit of sreal-
ism,'' farce, variety and would-be panto-
mime.
The PRESS congratulates the local
managers on their securing for this city
SO sterling a drawing card as Madame
Janauschek and their efforts are now to
be abundantly rewarded.

which had the phenomenal run OF two
hundred nights at the Boston theatre
comes to Portland theatre Monday. Jan
uary Both, for three nights and special
matinee on Wednesday. ssThe Soudan'
is military Fmelo-drama, which intro
duces some two hundred men, women
and children, in the great battle OF the
Desert City scene, and Trafalgar square,
London. The mimic battle, fought in
abe Soudan is claimed to be the most
thrilling and realistic scene of its kind
every presented on local stage. Ira
falgar square with its rejoicing multi

of London life.

The Bicycle Back.

A medical paper laments that SO
form divine" is sacrificed in the pursuit
of cycling, pastime which in all other
respects has everything to commend it.
All pastimes have their physical debt,
which must be paid. The physical debt
of football, if nothing more serious
happens, is as often as mot q broken
bone; that of baseball or cricket a
splintered finger; that of tennis 'ten-
mis- elbow" that of riding tendency to
"bandy legs" and so forth; and in a
similar degree the physical debt of
cycling is an ungraceful rotundity of the
back, which bids fair under present
circumstances to deprive the young
of the generation of that comeliness of
form inseparably associated with an
upright figure and well expanded and
prominent chest. Apart altogether
from health point of view, nothing
could exceed the inartistic attitude
which is now assumed by wheelmen
trundling themselves about on "safe-
ties" With arms outstretched and
elbows ungainly projecting, with slouch-
ing shoulders and backs curved to the
arc of a hoop, with heads thrown back,
causing the chin to assume somewhat
a "prognathous'' position, suggestive of
the natural facial outline of the reputed
simian ancestors of man-these are the
several features of the riders which
attract the attention of an observant
spectator at the meet Of a cycling club.
But how will thus perversity of physique
end? The devotees of wheeling now
include very large proportion of the
rising generation Of young men, and
this question is therefore one which can
scarcely be ignored in view of the fact
that, in process of time, some defect of
form originated by this means may come
to be transmitted as an acquired char
acterlStic Of the race. Unfortunately the
attitude assumed by cyclists is the
antithesis of that which creates straight
ness of figure and prominence of the
chest, and yet both of these character
istics are inseparable from gracefulness
of form, a manly presence, and an
attractive personality. Under present
circumstances, a man can never look
his best on a bicycle. The only remedy
seems to be with the manufacturers.

Attempt at Safe Blowing.

Tuesday night burglars entered the
post-office building by raising the back
window and then drilled two holes into
the safe near the dial, but for some
reason were frightened from completing
their work. All the money they receiv-
ed was $3.50 which they found in the
drawers of Geo. Brazeaus confectionery
store which is in the front of the same
building. Had the burglars been
successful in opening the safe they would
have been rewarded with few postage
stamps and post-office orders. Mr.. Burt
makes it point to deposit his funds
every day SO that he is never obliged to
leave any in his own safe.
We would suggest that people who
have money would do well to keep it
deposited in the banks where it is COM
paratively safe. More burglaries will
be attempted in the future.

$4,000 Policy Paid.

Last week while E. T. Wheelock, OF
Medford, was in the city in the interest
of the Ancient Order of United Work
men, Of which order he is the state
executive, a policy of $4,000 was paid
on the life of E. B. Rossier to his wife
as beneficiary. This policy had run Is
years upon which the insured had paid
$50 per year. This order is among the
strongest of its kind in the state. Mr..
Wheelock addressed fair sized
audience in Pomainville's g hall last week
Monday in the interests of that order
After the meeting the members con-
vened for good Of the order. Edward
is not only al able Editor but a good
platform speaker. He expects to come
again in the near future.

The nouth.

The mouth is the front door of your
face. 1t is the aperture to the cold
storage of your anatomy. Some mouths
look like peaches and cream and some
look like hole chopped into a wall to
admit new door or window.
The mouth is hotbed for toothaches
the bunghole for oratory and Il baby's
crowning glory. 1t is the crimson aisle
of our liver and natures apparatus for
blowing out the gas. Itis patriotism's
fountain head and tool chest for pie.
Without it a politician would be q
wanderer on the face of the earth and
the cornetist and chorus girl would 90
down to unhonored graves. 1t is the
grocer's friend, the orators pride and
the dentists hope. 1t puts some men
on the rostrum and some on the stone
pile. Its temptations lunch counter
when attached to q maiden and the
tobacconist's friend when attached to a
man. Without it married life would be
a perpetual summer dream and the
dude would lose half of his attractions
And most Of all and greatest of all, il
there were no mouths there would be
no good-byes nor happy greetings &c
words of comfort or hope, no laughter
full of sunshine OF songs full of praise
The hired man could not be called to
dinner and no one would sing ''Boom
de ay."-Ex.

Two Passenger trains Suspended.

There is great deal of disappoint-
ment and dissatisfaction towards the
G. NJ. & st. Paul Ry. Co., for suspend
ing the two trains which left these cities
going south at noon and going north at
6 o'clock IN the evening. They were so
convenient for travel both north and
south that they will have to be put on
again if that company hopes to get the
travel to Milwaukee. The people will
find more pleasure in leaving on the
Green Bay in the morning and go via of
New London over the Lake Shore
which already has alarge share of the
patronage. The poor depot accomoda-
tions on the st. Paul railroad is also PROV
ing to be a detrimen 1T to that company
The people here have asked for new
depot until they are tired. At least
ten people have gone to the World S
fair so far this week over the Green Bay
and Central that other things being
equal would have gone over the st.
Paul road Ladies who are compelled
to go over the St. Paul road, instead OF
going into the depot, wait for the trains
by standing outside on the platform.
How long will this condition of affairs
be allowed to remain so?
