At $50 O'Clock, Saturday morning. the
VIM. r. Smith Grammar school foot ball

ued for 20 minutes each and liveliness pre-
dominated as the minutes flew by.
At the completion of the first half the

made looking out the dirt covered windows

the car was q small stove, not much larger
than a cigar box and with plenty of small

some of the travellers became exceedingly
happy. Songs were rendered, jokes related,
clog dances performed, and every possible
means of merriment adopted. The bride

caboose embodied in each others arms,
while in another corner was young man
and his sweetheart, frequently caressing
each other. A member of the colored race
figured in the crowd, but he was not
much darker than some who, if soap and

The ..Mikado.''

The performance of the MikadO' Ill the
Gardiner Opera house, Monday evening,
NAV well be considered the musical event
of the season. The hall was packed to its
utmost capacity by the prominent must
cal people of the State, Bath, Lewiston,
Bangor, Portland and even Boston being
represented.
For several weeks the managers have
worked early and late to prepare the opera,
and the untiring interest of the chorus,
which is pronounced by Mr.. Owen as the
best he had ever seen, reflects great credit
upon every member. The performance
was not married by any appearance of
amateurishness, every entrance and exit
being made in perfect time and at the
proper moment.
Probably no one in this country is more
widely known than Kate Nannah. AS "a
pianist, composer and author, she stands
in the front rank of Americas brightest
women. Her debut as Katisha was
eagerly anticipated by her host of friends
and admirers, who were prepared for
successful Interpretation Of the part but
hardly expected her to disguise her person
al beauty to such an extent that her best
friends would fail to recognize her such,
however, was the case, and many VINO
were prepared to give her rousng rccep-
ton failed to know her until long after
her entrance.
Miss Bartlett's Yum Yum is an ideal
convention of the part. Her rendition OF
the celebrated solo, 1.-The sun whose

an actress, Miss Bartlett has few equals !;
ovcrv movement being full of grace, and,
in the love scene with Nanki Poo, she
captivated the entire audience. by her
sweet manner.

There was prettily contested foot bal
game at the park, Saturday afternoon, and
good sized crowd saw the Cony high
school eleven defeat the Gardiner high
school by the score of s to 0. The field
was in fine condition, and the day was
perfect for the sport. The crowd was en-

which was being played at the same time.

Capt. Weber and his players have put up
"a plucky, manly game that has
won the respect of all. Saturday was
one of the days when they were
out to win, and Gardiner which

Two halves of 90 and ID minutes were
played, the game being called at . 10 p.
NJ. Cony kicked off the ball Gardiner
advanced it well into Cony's territory and
then lost on downs. May dashed through
the line for pretty gain of 40 yards. A
few short gains were made and then True
dashed around left end on the criss cross,
aided by fine interference, ran another
40 yards for a touchdown. 1t soon looked
like Cony victory and the crowd was hap

was to in Cony's favor.
Gardiner kicked off, and after short
gain Cony lost the ball on a tumble The
ball changed hands several times on
downs, but at length, after being within
Is yards of Cony's goal, was forced down
the field again. Another handsome sprint
by True took the ball a few yards from the
Gardiner line, and it looked like another
touchdown, but time was upand here was
ten minutes rest.
Gardiner kicked off at the beginning of
the second half, and Cony secured the ball
and started up the field on the rush. A
few short gains and the ball was passed to
True, who, by some of his remarkable
sprinting and lodging, went half the
