Gen. Try in his "reminiscences of
Cass, omitted one scene of which he
was an observer, if mistake not. When
news came that Cass was nominated for
President, court was in session on Paris
Hill. All the lawyers of Oxford county
were in attendance and large gathering
of jurors and witnesses enough to con-
stitute quite mass meeting, at any rate
sufficient to fill the court room. The at
mosphere then and thereabouts was
quite Democratic and it was proposed to
celebrate the occasion with speeches in
which many Democrat lawyers wished
to ventilate their eloquenee and patriot
ism. Accordingly, on the evening ap-
pointed for the celebration, there was
quite rush to the front to see who
should have the floor. Gen. Ludden of
Turner was one of the prominent speak
ers, bnt was SO lengthy as to cause some
Impotence. After proceeding to eulo-
gize Cass and quoting literally from
speeches and documents in support of
his views. as it was apparent that others
would be crowded out if he longer con-
tinued, and as he was about to quote
once more from document, the speak
er's lifelong antagonist. Mr. Bennett of
Buckfield, and who never missed an op-
portunity to measure swords with Gen.
Ludden, rose and addressed the chair as
follows: ''Mr. President, rise to a
point of order. I move, sir, that the
further reading of that bill be dispensed
with" The applause that followed was
so boisterous as to so discomfort the
speaker that he. resumed his seat-one
occasion at least in which Mr.. Bennett
scored point against his rival.

MUSIC AND DRAMA,
Mr.. Potter of Texas.

'Mr. Potter of Texas" dramatized
from Archibald Clavering Gunter's fasci-
mating novel of that name, was present
ed to good-sized audience at Portland
Theatre last evening The play was seen
in this city last winter. and gave perfect
satisfaction, but the company that han
died it last evening were, if anything,
stronger, especially the leading roles.
Mr.. Murray, as the loyal, whole-souled,
gallant and always delightful Mr.. Potter
of Texas, was the ideal rough Westerner
and kept the audience in good humor by
his eccentricities. Miss Josephine Loane
as Lady Sarah Annerley, is an accom-
plished emotional actress, and played
the part with much life and spirit. She
was especially strong in the third act,
where her perfidy is discovered by the
man she loves. The work of Robert
Gordon as Charlie Enrol was neat bit of
acting, as was that of George Citizens as
B. Sidney Van Colt. whose sister mar
ried lord, and that Of Frank G. Allen
as the waiter. Misses LaWeine and Annie
Ware were acceptable in their parts.
Gi1bert's Lyceum Course.
Balfe's Rose OF Cashier which will
be presented by the Mariana Opera Com
pany, in the Gilbert Lyceum course
tomorrow evening will doubtless draw a
very large audience. The singers are

Organ Recital.
Prof. Quimby's organ recital, assisted
by Mrs. Elizabeth Dodge, elocutionist,
will be given at Chestnut St. Church
tomorrow evening. The programme as
published in yesterdays PRESS is most
attractive. Don't fail to get tickets.

STATE TOPICS OF INTEREST.

1t is said that the grand jury at the
coming December term of court in Saga
hoe county will be given an opportunity
to hear plenty of evidence regarding the
enforcement of the liquor law in Bath.
This is based upon the claim that about
50 men who have been converted from
the drinking habit have pledged them
selves to go before the grand jury and
state what they know about rumsellers.

The Question as to why all foam IS
white is not III easy one 10 understand.
but the fact is that foam is always white.
whatever may be the color of the bev-
erage itself. The froth produced on a
bottle Of the blacklist ink is white. and
would he perfectly SO We're il not tingsa
to a certain extent by particles Of the
beverage which the bubbles hold in me-
chanical suspension. As to the cause OF
this whiteness. it is sufficient IL say that
it is due to the large number Of rejecting
surfaces formed by the foam. fer j: is
these surfaces which. by rejecting the
light, produce upon II eyes the imrres-
sion of white.
Ii we remember that all bodies W.
their colors to the rays of light. which
they cannot absorb. and all bodies which
reflect all tie light they receive. without
absorbing any. appear perfectly white.
we shall be prepared 10 understand now
the multitude of rejecting surfaces
formed by the foam. and which do not
absorb any light. must necessarily give
the froth a white appearance. 1t is for
the same reason that any very fine pow
der appears white. even the blacklist

every trace of its original color.-Thomas
