ports that notices have been served on

ONE DAY.
A Delighted Audience in City Hall Last
Night.

The beautiful spectacle of Zone Day.
was thoroughly enjoyed by the audience
that assembled in City Hall last night.
But the audiences thus far have not been
at all what they should be in order to
reimburse the managers for their great
outlay of time, money and patience. The
various dances were all warmly applaud
ed. Little Miss Stenbon received q
beautiful bouquet from friends. The
song and dance, Love Among the
Roses" by little Miss Cushie
Snow and Master Eddie Dean
and the skirt dance by Miss Matte
Snow were encored most emphatically.
Miss Knight sang Zone Day. charming
". There were two new dances intro
duced last evening. They were the
Swiss Harvest dance and Butterfly dance.
The Swiss Harvest dance should be
seen to be fully appreciated. The
dancers chaperoned by Mrs. E. @. SWEET
and Miss Amelia S. Russell, were Misses
Annie SWEET, Daisy Colby, Edith Meg
quier, Ernestine Leavitt, Gertrude Kill
born, Cornelia Megquier, Elsie ellison,
Evangeline Norton, Messrs. Warren,
Plummer, Whipple, Harmon, Griffith,
Josselyn, Moody, Barker. The peas
ants enter in couples carrying
scythes and rakes festooned with many
colored ribbons. The dresses in this
dance are true to the picturesque mode
OF that mountainous country; the young
girls wearing red with black velvet
bodices, white camps and white peasant
caps; the men appearing in black velvet
coats and knee breaches, parti colored
vests and Swiss hats with silver buckles.
The naivete and grace with which they
presented the Tyrolean dance won much
applause.
Butterflies flash and frolic in the
bright sunlight of the noon. Airy, fairy
butterflies were those who were the par
Elephants of this dance in their may cos
tunes Of yellow and black with loose
scarfs of the same, and very deftly did
they executed those steps and move
ments which seemed to combine the
shawl and saraband dances finally form
ing themselves into huge butterfly with
two tiny misses as eyes. Miss Ethel
Pinkham was a most graceful and ac-
complished little leader. The chaperones
were Mrs. H. L. Hamilton and Mrs. E.
A. Hail.
Be sure and get seats at Stockbridges

Union Station Notes.

A large number of French Canadians

The Union Station was alive with a
large gang of river drivers from the

for Stewartstown, over the mountain di-
vision of the Maine Central.

That swede who Stole the Watch.

The Lewiston Journal says: 1.-THE
Portland papers say that the Portland
police are looking for a man named
Anderson, Swede. who is suspected of
stealing some clothes and a gold watch.
The Auburn and Lewiston police are
wondering whether he is the Swede who
went under that name here a year ago,
and who caused the police and others
great amount of trouble. 1t was sup
posed that all arrangements were made
at his departure for a return to Sweden,
but he may have returned or he may
never have gone there. The last the
folks in Auburn heard about him he was
in New York. y

Maine Genealogical Society.

The regular quarterly meeting of this
society will be held this evening, at 7.3C
O'Clock, at the rooms of the society in
Baxter Hall. 1t is proposed that the So
ciety print volume containing full alb
stracts Of the Lincoln county wills as re-
corded at Wiscasset. Cumberland and
Lincoln counties were set off from York
county at the same time, 1850, but the
probate records of Cumberland county
were all destroyed by the fire of 1856. 1t
is hoped that sufficient encouragement
may be given to the undertaking to ena-
bic the society to carry out it's plan and
place the Lincoln wills beyond danger of
loss. All interested are invited to attend
the meeting.
