A WILD SEA.
Vessels Were Glad to Get in Out of Wednes-
days Storm.

The storm yesterday kicked up a heavy
seas outside, and all vessels that could
sought the shelter of the harbor. The
coasters that had been lying in the harbor
were generally not lured out by the fine
weather of Wednesday. There was a
bank on the seaward horizon that the old
sea dogs did not like. Usually a high
barometer is considered a good weather
sign; but one captain said he remained
in, part because his barometer was too
high. He was suspicious of it.
The steamer Penobscot, on her way
from Bangor to Boston, got as far as
.Seguin when she began to be tossed about
in an alarming way. She was running
before the gale, the most favorable con-
dition, but nevertheless the captain felt
compelled to seek this harbor. He first
dropped anchor in the lower harbor;
but later came up to the wharves to land
and forward some Holsters.
Both of the Portland Steam Packet
companys steamers were in Boston
yesterday. Capt Snowman, of the Bay
State, said to Boston reporter that his
steamer was about two hours late getting
into Boston and that it was % wild night
outside. The steamer pitched and rolled.
Nearly every passenger was sick. 1t was
one of the most uncomfortable nights
ever experienced by the staunch Bay
State, but the fine boat rode he big

Mr.. Bragg lost his balance and went into

the ice tongs in his haLds when the cold
water closed over him. When he reap
pealed at the surface his pipe was still
in his mouth and the ice tongs in his

on that point, accepted the preferred
tenders of assistance and was pulled

RAILWAY CONDUCTORS.
The Ball and Concert of Pine Tree Divis-

The Bangor News thus speaks of the
ball and concert of Pine Tree Division
in that city,
When the railroad men arrange social
event they go in on a generous plan, and
thus, assisted by their own wide acqualn-
tance and high popularity, they reap a
great and cheerful success. That was the
way with the fourth annual concert and
ball of Pine Tree Division, No &c. Order
of Railway Conductors, in City Hall,
Wednesday night. In all respects it was
well arranged and enjoyable event. and
the attendance was larger than at any
similar event in Bangor's big ball room
since its dedication. There were over 200
couples in the macrh, and at 10 O'Clock
the floor was crowded to its utmost cap
acity, while the balconies were well filled
with spectators.
The decorations were both elaborate
and tastef I'll, and reflected great credit
upon George e. Brown of Portland, who
arranged them. In the art of ornamen-
tation Capt Brown is an expert. There
was profuse display of bunting, includ-
ing the national colors, decorative ban
ners, notices, streamers, emblems Of
the railway service and colors OF the
Order of Conductors. On the wall back
of the stage was mammoth painting Of
train on the mountain division of the
Maine Central, while all about were
pendant garlandS OF roses, evergreens and

mented with a profuse array of palmf,
ferns, crysanhtemuDls and other plants,

along the balcony front were hung shields
bearing the names of the different rail-
way lines running into Maine, as follows

said he would work, but fatty refused to

MUSIC AND DRAMA.


| Desnite the fact that the entire press OF
Portland was unanimous in declaring the
nroduotion of "Faust" at City Hall,
\ Wednesday evening, one of the very finest
and most artistic performances ever seen
in Portland, in every respect. there was
but a beggarly attendance last night,
which must have been exceedingly dis
couraging TO Manager Mitchell, who has
done so much to bring what is best in
the dramatic world to Portland. Dur
ing MI. Mitchell's three years. experience
he has brought to this city very large
ercentage of the reigning dramatic sue
cesses of the day and has never yet de-
ceiyed or hoodwinked the public, and it
seems too bad that his efforts are not bet
ter appreciated.
The audience last night tried to make
I'D in enthusiasm what they lacked in
numbers. I he applause was frequent
and the curtain calls pronounced. Mr..
Given with his orchestral club, are to be
congratulated on the excellence of their
music, which added much to the general
effect of the drama as we'll as highly en-

this afternoon. An immense crowd as
sembled, and hundreds of amateurs were
unable to obtain admission A highly
refined and intellectual rendering of
Beethoven's Sonata in A fiat, OPP. ITO,
opened tho recital, and then Mr.. Pad
erewski gave Schumann's Fantasia in
G, op. II, which he lad not played
here since his debut. Among five COM
positions by various masters quite new
to his London programmes were the
Paganini- Brahms variations The re-
manning items included M. Pad

Any one need not hesitate in securing

it should not be long, and no pupil will
accept an encore. The soloists will, OF

BAYER'S STILL HUNT.
SERGEANT-AT-AR OF THE
HOUSE OUT WITH SUBPOENAS.
MANY WITNESSES WANTED
To Testify Before House Judici-
airy Committee on Charges
Against Judge Ives.

The making of expense for the state
has begun in the Ives impeachment
case Sergeant-at-Arms Bayer, of the
house, is now in the Fourteenth judi
cial district serving subpoenas on be-
tween thirty and forty witnesses who
are to testify before the house COM
mittee on judiciary, beginning the 18th.
Speaker Van SAINT signed the subpoe-
mas Friday, as the GLOBE learns.
The issuing of the papers was the re-
suit of an executive session held by
the committee Thursday evening last,
when the decision to proceed with the
hearing was reached.
Not word was allowed to be said
publicly, and outside of the speaker
none but members of the judiciary
committee knew that the sergeant-at-
arms had his pockets full of sub
poenas for witnesses when he went
North Friday evening. Secrecy was
observed because many of the men
wanted are understood to be unwilling
to come. Prominent people from
Crookston, East Grand Forks and 9TH
er places in the district are wanted to
testify on behalf Of one side or the
other, and it is understood that Bayer
is going to have a hard task to find
some of the men for whom he has sub
poenas.
