Mullet in Indian River.

The Portland fishing schooner Nathan
Cleaves is at Indian River Inlet, Florida,
passing quiet winter, resting on the sands
at low tide and floating clear at high water.

Mr.. James c. Burnham of this city
contemplates publishing in book form a
history of the theatre in Portland, en-
larged from a series of newspaper arti-
eles he wrote several years ago. The
idea of the book will be to give sketches
of the noted dramatic artists who have
appeared in Portland, and of the differ
ens places If amusements that have ex-
listed in this city, to which MIR. Burnham
will add an epitome OF the theatre in
general. The idea of the book will be to
show the necessity of recognizing the
drama as one of the fine arts. also as a
moral necessity and incentive. Mr..
Rurnhsm's opin ion is that theatrical en-
tertainments are to be divided into two
classes, one for those who can appreciate
and enjoy, and who demand the classical
drama, and the other for those who are
only educated to that degree that they
enjoy the lighter drama, which he thinks
demands :; potent reformation. He pro-
poses to make work of value to all low
ers of amusements, and his book prom
ises to be of general interest.

Durrant is Cheerful.

SAN Francisco, April 19.-Young
Durrant was very cheerful this morn
ing and greeted everyone with a
smile and pleasant words. The reas-
on for this change in accused, was
probably caused by the belief that the
police have exhausted every means
for information against him. The
searching of the church is completed
and no further evidence brought to
light, He rested well last night and
ate hearty breakfast this morning.
Police Surgeon Somers visited him
this morning, to study his actions in
anticipation Of plea of insanity,
when the case is brought to trial. DR..
Somers says that Durrant shows no
signs OF insanity, in fact he spoke
with intelligence on every subject
that was brought up.
Durrant seemed very pleased that
he did not have to make trip to the
morgue to-day.
The inquest Will be continued to
morrow morning.
Another witness has come forward
who thinks that he saw Durrant and
Miss Williams. or couple resemb-
ling them very much, at about Ills
o'clock on Friday night on Bartlett
street. AS he passed them he heard
the young lady laugh, and the young
man was smiling. He did not observe
their actions after he had passed them
but says they were walking toward
the church. The description TALES
exactly with the dead girl and Dur
rant, and if they were the persons his
testimony will go to prove the girl was
not murdered early i'll the evening as
has been supposed.
