After the regular business meeting of
the George Gilman chapter, Epworth
League, of Vaughan street church, last
evening, the members adjourned to the
residence of their secretary, Mr.. FL. 0.
Phillips. By an adroitly managed
scheme, Mr.. Phillips was detained at the
church until all had left. When he ar
rived home he found the other members
had got there before him. The pastor OF
the church, Rev. C. Everett Bean, pre-
sented Mr.. Phillips with a handsome
ring on behalf of the League. After
that refreshments were served, and after
good time spent by all, the party broke
up at an early ~ hour, wishing Mr..
Phillips many happy returns OF his
birthday.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
The Operator.


The only twin stars, the Newell
Brothers, William and Willard, opened
their season at the Empire, Chicago.
August 9th. They were greeted by q
large audience. The Operator is a
thoroughgoing melo drama. The first
act has murder, a robbery and an alb
duction and the second a shipwreck fol-
lowed by a railroad wreck. OF course,
all the troubles of the hero and heroine
are healed in thelast act. The play was
received with enthusiasm, and the
Newell Brothers and Dinkins, the owners,
should make money. Tonight the
''Operator' will be seen at Portland
theatre.
The Old Soldier.
Phil Peters new comedy of the above
name will be seen at Portland theatre
Friday and Saturday evenings and Satur-
day afternoon. There are very few of
our theatre goers who do not know how
amusing Mr. Peters is, and he is said to
have clever company supporting him.
He is a whole show anyway, so the per-
Torrance is sure to be worth seeing.
Ullie Akerstrom.
Miss Akerstrom will begin a three
nights engagement at Portland theatre
Monday, Feb. 9th. She is an artist, and
her charming personality pleases from
the moment she puts her foot on the
stage. She has an expressive, childlike
face, slender, girlish figure, and an un-
affected simplicity of manner that
eminently fits her to appear at the best
advantage as Aurora in her new, four-act
comedy drama miss Rora." The COM
pany embraces many popular players,
and includes many original specialties in
music, singing and especially dancing.
''Miss Rora'' will be presented on Mon
day evening; "a Little Busybody'' Tues
day; Wednesday matinee miss Rora'
will be repeated, and on Wednesday
night Miss Akerstrom's new play THAT
Smith GaI'' will be given.
Concert at Kotzschmar Hall.
The Boston Times says: 'Mr. Helm
rich, who is to give a concert in Kotzsch-
mar Hall. Feb. Sth, is the fortunate pos
SCISSOR of a remarkably pathetic tenor
voice, that pierces the heart of the
nearer. His rendering of ''Schubert's
Seranado'' and "Riccio's Letztes Leid''
was that of a scholar and artist"
| Rossini Club
The second recital of this season to be
| given by the Rossini Club will take place
| today at II o'clock at Kotzschmar Hall.

Deputy Sheriffs Hebert Billeaud
and S. Bernard arrested Wednesday
in Abbeville, man named Williams
Watkins charged with horse stealing,
and gave him free lodging in 1ke's
Hotel. The affidavit was made by
Sam Smith who claims that he
bought the horse from Watkins,
but it seems the horse is the property
of Henry Jones, negro from Que
Tortue and disappeared from his
premises, and in finding him in the
possession of Sam Smith, made a
demand for his property, and upon
being refused proceeded to have
Smith arrested. Smith is in Jail.
Watkins acknowledges to have sold
the horse to Smith but says he
bought the animal in Iberia. Wat
kins father is expected today to
furnish bail for his son.
