Board Of State Assessors.

The board OF State assessors will leave
next week for Aroostook county, in the in
terests of the wild land matters, which its
members have been investigating SO thor
oughly this summer.
A hearing on wild lands will be held at
Houlton, September II, and at Caribou the
18th. These meeting will wind up the hear
ings this year, and much valuable informa-
ton has been collected. .,,. ..u
By October the board will enter the as
SCISSORS department at the State House to
equalize valuations. A large amount of
evidence and testimony has been gathered,
regarding the valuation of cities and towns.
Never before has as much been at
hand. The next report to be
insured by this department will I'M
doubtedly be the best yet sent out, as a
portion of it will be devoted to wild land
matters, thus giving information about
parts of the State yet uncultivated and

The many friends that Mr.. James ONeill

be pleased to welcome the announcement of
his forthcoming appearance as "Virginius, :"
Saturday, Sept. 8, for the first time in this
city. During the last years it has been as
serted, and with some foundation too, that
Mr.. O'Neills long association with Monte
Cristo" might make him unfit for other
parts, but when one remembers his long and
varied experience, before he became Ed

Citations with Edwin Booth, Forrest,
Adelaide Nelson and other artists of
equally high standing, his appearance
as "Virginius" will not mark a new
departure from him, but simply return to
characters which he was wont to portray
with great success. Considering the part
of "Virginius" in its totality, there is good
reason to believe that Mr.. O'Neill will give
an ideal representation of the proud Roman
father. His wonderful voice will be heard
to great effect in Sheridan Knowles elocu
tionary passages and Mr.. O'Neill's viriiity,
force and magnetism of personality will to-
gether enable him to give thoroughly ar
tistic performance. The part of "Vir-
ginia" the sweet Roman maiden, will be
played by Miss Marie Burress. The sale
of seats opens this morning at nine o'clock.

either can not, or do not want to see the
MANY violations of this law which are daily
seen by others. The number of wheelmen
In our city is very small in comparison with
the number of citizens who use our side
walks for the legitimate purpose specified
in our CITY charter, which clearly says that
thew shall be preserved exclusively for the
accommodation, convenience and use OF
persons travelling on foot" 1t begins TO
look rather too much like minority rule, or
that the wheelmen have some sort or

of such an ordinance for year or more,
and now that it has been passed, to prevent
it, proper enforcement.
The wheelmen cannot plead Ignorance OF
the law in this matter, as there probapiy IL
not one of them who is not aware OF the
ordinance, and those who now ride upon
our sidewalks are doing so in open defiance
of the law, as we'll as to the inconvenience
NJ the many persons for whose use our side
walks are especially reserved. The ordi
nance has practically been a farce thus far
and AZ our officers do not seem inclined to
enforce it, it is quite evident that the lone
suffering public must take the matter IL
hand. If any good is to ever result from IL

t;on of our sidewalks for their proper anc

we might dread her interference here. But
science says that beauty is not skin deep.
She can tell You that half the charm OF
that face-at the least the expression of it
is matter of little muscles and com
pick labyrinth of nerves; that the curves
of the lips, the glance of the eyes, the
droop of their lids, are a matter of the
prevalent use of certain muscles in
obedience to prevalent aspect Of the mind;
moreover, that the use of these organs OF
expression has come down long ancestral
lines, and that the molds Of the features
themselves is question OF heredity.
