John Sexton met with an accident on
Wednesday which may prove fatal.
While fixing spring on n buggy he
struck one end and the other end flew
up striking him in the eye. 1t is
hoped he may not lose the sight of it.

1t takes money every week to run a
newspaper. If we do not hear from
you before the fifteenth of this month
you will hear from US. We intend to
have all our subscription accounts
settled up within the next three
months.
1t seems that we have in our midst
some scamps, whoare almost too mean
| to have a place on Gods earth, the
petty thriving and misdoings which
have been accomplished lately have
been numerous and of all the dirty
low-down tricks the worst was that
which was performed last Saturday
night to a buggy belonging to n couple
of ladies, which was hitched on the
South side of Chamberlain's store.
Such williams ought to be tarred and
feathered. And the same night Isaac
Menerey drove into town hitchlng his
horse at the lower end of Main Street.
Some miscreant unhitched and drove
him to the upper end where he was
again fastened. Another instance of
vandalism was the robbing of Mr.. Me-
nerey's citron patch, cutting, destroy
| ing and strewing them in all directions.
Some of these persons would be made
an example of If they could be caught
and some of these fine days they 1CW
be caught and get what they SO richly
deserve.
On Saturday last seven ladies, most
of whom were Bees, might have been
seen pacing the floor of the depot at
Saginaw, East Side. One could read
lily ascertain that something of un-
usual interest had occurred or about
to occur for the Bees fitted hither and
thither III Il very ominous manner.
For about the space of two hours they
kept up this commotion in the ladies'
waiting room when suddenly, as if led
by the Queen Bee, they fitted to the
hallway, and upstairs they went,
straight to TIE Office of Mr.. Potter the
Superintendent of the F. IL p. NJ. X. r.
Here in short space of time they
wore soothed though not quieted for
down stairs they came buzzing louder
than ever, although it was plain to be
seen that their sorrow had been
changed to rejoicing. What did it all
mean? Simply this:-These ladies ar
rived in Saginaw too late to catch the
east bound train. That caused their
CONSERVATION and sorrow. Mr.. Potter
promised to send them home on a
special. This caused their rejoicing.

CHARLES STUART.
A Man With an Historic Name Arrested
in This Town for Forgery.

Charles Stuart was arrested last eve
ming on swarrant charging him with
forgery. Stuart has lived in Portland
since last December, working as a can
vasser for the Lakeside Press and later
for Smith & Sale, the publishers. He
left their employment the last of Febru-
airy. 1t was his business to solicit con-
tracts for one of the publications of the
firm, receiving q commission therefor.
1t is charged that he SO changed these
contracts before presenting them to his
employers that he obtained commissions
largely in excess of what he earned.
Yesterday a warrant was placed in the
hands of Deputy Marshal Hartnett
charging Stuart with forgery in changing
a certain order given him by E. J. Har-
mon, the florist.

Bringing Bills In Parliament.


The time honored process Of bringing
n bills is thus described by the author
IF "a Diary of the Salisbury Parlia-
nent:"
The speaker, holding in his hand a
long list of notices given the day before,
calls the names of the members in sue
ression. Mr. Mrrphyn' calls the speak
er. Mr. Murphy raises his hat, where
apon the speaker says, The question is
that leave be given to bring in a bill
lo"-and he reads description of the
bill of which Mr.. Murphy has given no
lice.
WHO is prepared to bring in this
lill?" asks the speaker. Then Mr.. Muir
LILY rises and reads out the names Of
members who indofse his bill, and the
speaker goes on to the next on the list.
AS the speaker approaches the end of
The list members who are to bring in
bills struggle for places at the bar Of the
house. The speaker calls on the member
whose name heads the list. He makes
his way through the throng at the bar
and advances toward the clerks table,
holding piece of folded foolseap in his
hand.
This is understood to be the bill he is
bringing in, but there is nothing within
but blank sheet, deliberately Endorsed
on the outside with the title. The text
Of the measure will be deposited in the
bill Office at some future convenient date.
The clerk, carefully concealing his
knowledge of the fiction, respectfully
takes charge of 1.-THE bill; recites it's title
which is the first reading of the bill
and then asks, Second reading?"
Eighth of May" says the member.
"Bill read second time 8th Of May says
the clerk. "Read second time sth Of
May" echoes the speaker, and the mem
Der disappears behind the speakers chair.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Mariana.

There was good sized audience at
Portland theatre last evening to witness
the performance of Wallace's a.Marita-
MAJ given by the Gilbert English Opera
Company. Several of the members of
the organization belonged to the Lillian
Durell company, an opera troupe heard
here some time ago.
The Gilbert company is on its way to
the provinces where it will make an ex-
tended tour, and especially in Nova SEQ
tia, the home of Miss Carrie Carvell, the
prima donna. Last night was evidently
one of the first performances since their
organization, and considering that cir
cumstance, the opera went off quite
smoothly. Miss May Shepherd took the
part of Mariana in place of Miss Jennie
Corea, whose cold incapcitated her from
singing. Miss Corea will appear, how
ever, in the bohemian Grip tonight.
Several of the numbers were very ac-
ceptably given last night notably ''Scenes
That Are Brightest by Miss Shepherd,
"Alas Those Chimes" by Miss Carvell
as Lazarillo, "All the World Over" by
Mr.. Lloyd as Don Caesar, and especially
I'm Happy Moments, by Mr.. Lon F.
Brine as Don Jose. There was fair or
chestra and chorus, the orchestra was
conducted by Mr.. Purdy,
The Bohemian Girl it will be remem-
bered will be given tonight.
Crust of Society
Mr.. John Stetson's admirable compa-
ny of players from the Globe theatre,
Boston, will present the 'Crust of So
ciety'' to the Portland public at the Port
land theatre for three nights and a Sat-
urday matinee, commencing Thursday
evening. 1t is play about which much
has been written and about which much
more is still to be written, since it is one
which will not be shelved very soon. It
is play, which, though adapted from
the French, might as easily and as truth
fully have been adapted from any people
and still show in all the glaring colors of
truthful Interpretation and faithful por-
traiture the fascinating hideousness of
gilded sin. 1t is play which points a
moral as big as a comet and there are
faring. brilliant, scintillating streamers
all around the social horizon, threaten
ing, yet incapable of harm, save to those
who are brought into Immediate contact
with them, and in some cases not even
then. And as long as '.The Crust of So
ciety,'' is on the boards just SO long will
there be diversity of opinion as to its ac-
tual merits and its worth as great moral
lesson, which may see plainly woven and
depicted all through its attractive action,
it's spirited dialogue and it's stirring
scenes and climaxes.

The influence of Imitation.

About one-third of the world conforms
to what another one-third does, thinks
or wishes. You sac it ON every hand.
People go to church because So-and-so
is going and it will not look well to stay
away. They go to the theaters for the
same reason. They do thousand and
enc things which are useless and unnec-
essary simply becawse friends and rela-
tiTes do them. That expression, ''When
in Rome, do as the Romans do" is con-
sidered very wise, an excellent policy,
but what a mean, trivial, degraded world
it makes after all! How unsatisfactory
1t is!-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

Forcing Early Spring Lambs.

The propagation Ct spring lambs is one
OF the most interesting responses to the
fastidious palate Of these later days.
Early Strawberries, forced peaches,
young asparagus and spring chickens are
as nothing compared to the involved pro-
cesses that have produced spring lamb.
This has come about only within the
past 10 years and is the result Of con-
tinuous and ingenious experiment. Be-
fore this time spring lamb could not be
found in the market until the middle Of
March, nor easily accessible until the list
of May. Spring lamb now comes gar
landed with Christmas holly. Last year
one solitary lambkin helped to celebrate
Thanksgiving and was almost without
price.
The annual Christmas yield of spring
lambs in town is about 90 They are
then eating distinctly precious, each
lambkin selling for at least $15. In jan
nary they become more common, and in
February a whole lamb can be bought
for So 81. The spring lamb is . months
old when he is served at table. He has
passed his brief life in warm stall
and is fed only on his mothers milk.
He has had his little run for constitu.
tional on the clean floor, but exercise is
discouraged that might make his flesh
coarse or harden his muscles. He is kept
as clean as baby and is groomed like
Skye terrier. When his appointed hour
is come. no sacrifcial offering could be
in finer condition, morally Or physically.
