Maine Central Excursion to Bar Harbor

Whoever has visited Bar Harbor desires
TO do so again and, whoever has not will
make great mistake by not improving the
exceptional opportunity of next Sunday.
On that day there will be a grand Maine
Central excursion from this city and
Westbrook, Brunswick Bath and all way
stations, and the delightful trip can be en-
joyed for only So. See advertisement in an
other column.
These Sunday excursions to Names
beautiful summer resort are great boon to
the working people. For one-fifth of the
regular fare they can leave their city homes,
travel across the best state in the country,
through the loveliest landscape on the con-
tinent and over the best railroad and get
healthful glimpse of old ocean and breath
of invigorating air. Last Sundays excursion
from Bangor to Old Orchard was a splendid
success. and gave immense enjoyment and
benefit to hundreds of people, for low
price. who wouldn't otherwise have had it,
There were $50 people on the train when it
left Gardiner
The more the good people of Maine travel
about their state and realize its attractive
ness and enjoy the mental inauguration of
such travel, the better it is for the state.
Where people stay always at home there is
stagnation and worse.

The Automatic switch BOARD.

We understand that the Casco Bay
Telegraph and Telephone Company will
use the automatic telephone switch
board, new invention. that does away
with the use of large number of opera
tives, insures absolute secrecy in transmits
sion of all messages, perfect connections
and little liability to mistakes. If it is
equal to representation it will effect a
saving of half the expense of central
station. The progress of the new COM
pany is SIMPLY marvellous. Every body is
enthusiastic. There will be fifteen hun
dred subscri bers on the line at least
calculation. This will make it the larg-
est exchange in Maine.

DISAPPEARED FROM HOME.
AlWilda Weeks Of Gray Cannot be
Found.

She Managed One of Her Fathers NIillin-
cry Stores-Was Only Fourteen But
Smart And Large For Her Age-Traced
To Portland.
Sunday Mr.. Weeks of Gray called at
the police station, and said that his
daugher, Alwilda, IA years old, had dis
appeared the previous Tuesday and that
he had traced her to Portland, but had
lost track of her, and desired the help
of the police.
1t seems that Mr.. Weeks runs a mill
inery store in Gray, and another in Ray
mond. His daughter, who is large for
her age, and very smart and intelligent.
has lately had entire charge of the store
in Raymond, and has even come to Port
and alone to do the buying, though usu-
lually her father and she have done the
buying together.
Mr.. Weeks said that there was a young
man in Raymond who haG been paying
the girl some attention. He sought him
Immediately, and found him at home and
as surprised as anybody else at her dis
appearance Mr.. Weeks doesl not think
that this young man knows anything
about it.
There was but very little money left
in the store, but how much the girl had
taken in trade since he last saw her or
how much she took with her, he could
not tell. Hes.foundEthat shezhad come to
Portland and made brief visit at the
home of family VINO live near the
rolling mills, and whom she was accus-
toned to visit, the two families being
very intimate friends. She left there
without giving any intimation that she
had left home without the knowledge of
her parents. Mr.. Weeks got trace of her
at another house in this city. He went
there and man came to the door, who
said that his name was not.that which
Mr.. Weeks asked for, and that that man
was not at home, and when questioned
as to whether the girl had been there
answered uncivilly andEshut the door Gin
Mr.. Weeks's face. Then the latter ap-
piiedsto the police. which he ought to
have done in the first place.
Yesterday the police were at work on
the case, but found no traces of the lost
girl.

The Flower Mission.

Since the Portland Flower Mission be-
gan it's present seasons work, from June
9th to July 21st inclusive, it has dis
tributed five hundred and eighty-seven
bouquets. These have gone to homes,
hospitals, reformatories and the Jail,
also to the sick in their own homes.
The flowers embrace many varieties,
from the simple field buttercups and
daisies to the exquisite forget-me-nots
and royal Jacqueminot roses.
Country fields, city gardens and con-
servatories have yielded of their treasure
for this benefcent work. The kind
people not only of our own city, but of
other places as well (Gorham, N. H.,
sends it's weekly quota of f1owers) have
responded generously to the appeals
MAIDEN the daily papers, which fact has
given this Mission courage to come be-
fore the public once more with it's needs.
This time it asks for potted plants, s@some
simple little slips of any plant that will
flourish through the fall and winter, the
care and enjoyment of which will give
new interest to many an almost color
less life. From the cultivation and en-
joyment of plants and flowers is an easily
graded step to the cultivation and en-
joyment of good reading. An invalid's
life at the best is one of much discom
fort, and books and papers which are al
ways at the command of the rich, help
to shorten the long days of suffering,
and for the time makes one forget. So
the Flower Mission asks for its wards
good reading matter, which has served
it's purpose and is now doing no one any
good Youths Companions, Portland
Transcripts, Scribner's and other maya
zines.
In this connection let it be said that
here is good work for some of our
Kings Daughters. A bit of poetry, a
wide awake story is much more interest
ing to the invalid when read by wide
awake young girl, who always puts
part of her own bright personality in
whatever she does. Are there not some
who will respond to this call. The Mis-
sion will continue it's work through
August and September at SO Oak street,
where the committee will be found every
Saturday from nine O'Clock to twelve
to receive and distribute flowers, plants
and reading matter.

MUSIC AND DRAMA
The Pavilion.

INC 6dVluOus 4sI b
christmas Day." beautiful pastoral
drama, was presented for the first time
yesterday afternoon and evening by the
the MeCallum company, and scored a
big success. "Christmas Day. is Charles
Reade's dramatization of Tennyson's
beautiful poem Dora" and much of
the original verse was retained by the
dramatist. 1t is beautiful piece, and
is strongly cast, and will no doubt
draw packed houses all the week. Dora
is part excellently suited to the emo
tional talent of Miss Hall, while Miss
Ingraham as the impulsive. warm hearted
jealous and somewhat spiteful Mary
Morrison, added to the popularity.
Messrs. McCallum as Farmer Allen, the
stern. headstrong farmer, James Horn
as Luke Bloomfield, W. H. Pascoe as
Will Allen, and Jos. Callahan as Jim
Blunt, are all seen to good advantage.
The play is bright and clean and with
it's homely pathos and rugged humor
soon finds it's way into the good graces
of all. 1t is play that depends entirely
upon it's dramatic worth for attractive
ness, and in the hands of McCallum's
brilliant company it cannot but prove
a success. The piece will run all the
week, and will no doubt do large bus
mess. ftfs
