MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Casino Theatre.

Manager Parker, who by the way
seems to be brim full of new ideas, has
given us still another surprise, and an
agreeable one. He has leased the ele
CANT steamer Merryconeag for the bal
ance of the season to run direct to his
theatre, waiting there till the close of the
performance and returning direct to
Portland without stops, at 1856 p. m.
He also announces dance to be run
every evening in connection with the
theatre, and reserved seats will admit to
both the theatre and dance. An excellent
orchestra will play for the dance, and
everyone is assured of a good time. The
special boat Merryconeag leaves Portland
pier afternoons at las, returning at 5.15,
evenings at 1870. If you wish to enjoy a
good laugh be sure and see the funny
comedy Number 227. The theatre and
boat were completely filed last night
and everyone speaks in praise of the ex-
cellent company, and the entire amuse-
i1lent

IT was Nearly His Last Minute.

Thursday afternoon Martin Flanagan
was driving along Commercial street. AS
he approached the Boston & Maine
crossing the dagman, George H. Decelle,
ordered him to wait until coming train
had passed. Flanagan told Deeelle to
s'wait minute as he kept leisurely
on his way. Both Decelle and Conductor
Silver realizing Flannagan's danger,
called loudly as they signalled the engin-
eer to stop the train. Flanagan was in
front of the engine when the train
stopped, the COW catcher being struck
by the wheels as Flanagan passed.

1T is REV. DIR. GALLAGHER
Who Has Been Elected President of Maine
WesIeyan Seminary.

At an adjourned meeting of the trus-
tees of the Maine Wesleyan Seminary
and Female College held at the Office OF
Gen. j. j. Perry yesterday afternoon,
Rev. Chas. W. Gallagher, D. D., of APP
pleton, Wisconsin, was unanimously
elected president of the Maine Wesleyan
Seminary and Female College, to fill the
vacancy occasioned by the resignation OF
Rev. DR.. Smith.
DR.. Gallagher is native of New Eng
land, graduate of Wesleyan University
at Middletown, Conn, and for several
years after graduating was leading
preacher in the Southern New England
conference.
-Four years since he was elected presi-
dent of Lawrence University at Apple
ton, Wisconsin, and has occupied that
position until the present time.
Under his administration that institu-
ton has enjoyed remarkable degree of
prosperity.
DR.. Gallagher is q gentleman of fine
personal presence-in the prime of life
and has the reputation of being an able
preacher, a fine scholar and a popular
educator.
The-eniversity over which he has pre-
sided >fof the last four years will exceed
ingly regret to loose him from that insti-
tuition, but being a native of New Eng
land and on account of family relations,
it is understood, he will accept the new
position to which he has been elected.
The old popular institution at Kents
Hill is exceedingly fortunate in the selec-
ton Of successor to DR.. Smith and is
to be congratulated on securing the SER
vices of DR.. Gallagher.
John O. Newton, graduate of Wesley
an, was elected professor of Natural
Science in place of Rev. John Fl. Pills
bury, declined; and Miss Cora E. Edger-
ton of Mortified, VT, was elected teach
er in the art department. Both are said
to be excellent selections.

AMONG The HoRsEMEN.
Henry wilkes and Dolly III. Trotted Fast
Miles Yesterday Morning.

Rigby Park, near this city, begins to
present decidedly racy appearance.
Numerous vehicles were there
and their occupants to the number
of two or three hundred spectators OBJ
served the fast horses at their training
work yesterday morning. Ira Wood
bury gave Dolly Fl. mile handily IN
2.25, doing the last quarter in "a seconds
or PIG clip. Frank Haydens stallion
Henry Wilkes spun off mile in 2.229
and many others were given fast educa-
tional and fitting work.
There are upwards of one hundred of
Names finest horses in training at the
new track and the horsemen speak in
the highest terms of it. Mr.. Seth Grit
fin is putting the finishing touches on
the course and goodly force of car
penters are putting up the high en-
closing fence. The horses now present
are from the stock Of G. Fl. Nelson, J..
Wesley Hutchins, F. R. Hayden, Ira P.
Woodbury., F. A. Maxwell, VIM. Nc
Causland, L. P. Hawkins, Edward
Fletcher, J. Scott Jordan. Nelson has
the largest string, So in number with the
great Maine stallion at the head, record
2.1o. Hayden comes next with 16 horses
and Hutchins has 10, with the Seer 2.194
at the head. In she Hutchins string are
Seernot, three year old which made the
champion New England record at Mystic
as yearling and in two year old form
trotted last quarter in All
seconds or a 2.0T speed. He also has
Matte Wilkes. very fast two year old,

Joel Plummer of Waterford recently
sold a five year old Wilkes for $500.
G. C. Stevens of Waterford is the owner
of highly promising three-year-old
Diamond by Black Diamond.
The town of Raymond has a new half
mile track, graded last fall, and a two
days fair will be held at it during the
present season. The track will be of
great advantage in the education for
speed Of many fine young horses bred in
Raymond and vicinity.
Nelson will be started on Thursday of
next week against the worlds stallion
record. There is no mistake about the
fact that the great horse is steadily
coming with his judicious work this
season and no error about his easily
making mile in 2. Is at Rigby Park the
other day as Boston paper assumed in
consequence Of its being new track. A
number of good watches held by entirely
disinterested parties made the time O. 124.

A Raj way to Limerick.

A syndicate has been formed for the
purpose of tapping the Portland & Roch-
ester railroad at Centre WATERFORD by
either an electric or narrow gauge
steam railwaysleading to Limerick, a dis
lance of ten miles. The estimated cost
is $4,000. of which considerable pro-
portion has been subscribed. The pro-
posed road will open up rich farming
lands in the towns of Limerick, Parsons
field and Cornish, and York county CAPT
talists are enthusiastic over the scheme.

Up the songo.

Some fifty or more excursionists from
Portland made the round trip up Lake
Sebago, and the Songo and back by rail,
last Saturday. They had a glorious time
of it; one feature of which was an ele-
CANT lunch at the Bridgton House, to and
from which they were taken in coaches.
The excursion was under the personal
management of MI. W. Fl. Gay. of the
Longfellow Gallery, Portland, who both
as an artist and manager of such affairs
combines experience and ability. This
noon there will be another one. Be sure
and go.

OWEN, MOORE & co.
Cheating by False Pretenses.

Deputy Sheriff Samuel D. Plummer,
yesterday morning arrested Eben York
of Bridgton, who was at work on the
High school building. 1t appears that
York bought horse from David New
comb of Bridgton, giving Holmes note
for the animal. Then York sold the
horse to Emery Knight of the same
town, who has no title to him. Knight
has therefore had York arrested on a
charge of cheating by false pretences.
York was taken to Bridgton yesterday
afternoon by Mr.. Plummer.

Yesterday was the hottest of the sea-
son, although breeze blew in the after
noon that somewhat tempered the heat.
The weather bureau thermometer indi-
Gated 92a degrees, and in some parts OF
the city the mercury ran up to 95o. 1t
was scorcher. Many people sought the
islands, but west wind doesn't give
much comfort there. A raging thirst
was engendered judging by the way the
soda water fountains fixed, and the bus
mess done in other soft drinks, and in
ice cream.

ISLAND NEWS.
Great Diamond.

The sociable at Elwell hall on Thurs
day evening was by far the most brilliant
event of the season. The interior of the
hall was gaily and prettily decorated and
the comments on all sides were to the
effect that the hall never looked as pref
ty since it was erected. The sociable
was given under the auspices of the La
dies Aid, and the officers, assisted by
some of the members received, and the
young ladies served punch, etc. The
faces of many old cottagers were no
ticed among the people and they were
warmly welcomed by their old island
friends. Intermingled with the hand
shaking was an informal concert, con-
sisting of a piano solo by Miss Elwell, and
vocal solos by Messrs. Barlow. Barnard
and Pierce. Messrs. Barlow and Pierce
were obliged to respond to encores. At
ter the sociable the young people spent
the remainder of the evening in dancing.
The sociable was given purely to bring
the cottagers together and in the words
of one of the young ladies, II guess
everybody knows, everybody else now,
and if they don't it is their own fault"
