OLD ST PAUL'S CHURCH 20 YEARS AGO
Situated in the lower part of Prince
Georres Nd has been the Parish Church
of the Skinner family since its first build
inc; the date of which would be interest
ing o know. Seventy years or more past,
the interior was paved with brick, the
chancel was on the east side where the
commandments were rehearsed and com
munion celebrated. The division between
the pews was high enough to prevent any
one peering into his neighbours devotionS.
The pulpit was high with Il sounding board
above. and clerk desk just below. This
official made the responses and read the
psalms and kept the registry, and wealthy
community attended the services together
with devout assemblage of poorer PEG,
pie. in the western part, over which there
was gallery of colored people. The eX-
terror had no Enclosure and ladies stepped
from their carriages to the Threshold OF
the Church. An ambitious coachman an
ncunced his coming by a noisy flourish OF
his whip at the church door. There were
no interments there and the offices of the
Church were made on estates and register

Prospects Il of Good Fishing season.

The captains Of the bay steamers plying
between Baltimore and Virginia report
great activity among the fishermen along
the waterways. 1t is believed that the
coming fishing season will be a very
profitable one and that the catch will exceed
that of last year Several boxes of Virginia
herring have arrived in Baltimore all eady
The fish are caught in patent traps. Many
of these traps were badly damaged by the
ice, which drew the stakes up and carried
them away, entailing considerable loss on
the owners.
1t is said that some gentlemen from
Hartford County, are making arrangements
for fishing upon a large scale in the
Patuxcnt River this season.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Thomas w. Keene.

Few men on the stage have had the
varied experience of Mr.. Thomas keene.
AS member of the old Wood Museum
Co., of New York and of the California
Theatre Stock, he played everything in
progressive order, from pantomimlc
dumb action to the tragedy and comedy
of Shakespeare. AS young man no one
was more favorably KNOWN in the two
cities, twenty years ago. The first great
hit of his life was in a dramatization.of
Zola's s'Drink. - Clever judges detected
ut once in him the material for great
legitimate star, and their efforts
took form in bringing him before
the public in Richard III. His sue
cess on the first night was marked.
Not all, however, of the critics praised
his methods, as his reading of the part
differed in many respects from his prede-
cessors. The people, however, believed
in him and crowded his houses whenever
Richard. was on the bills, and it Is one OF
the proud boasts of his professional
career, that he has played the part closely
approaching two thousand times.
Shakespeare Richard may not be abso-
lutely fact of history, but true or not,
the great author has SO far impressed his
creation upon the world, that the eyes of
the future will never recognize another.
Keene's Richard is that of Shakespeare.
1t has been one of the important studies
of his professional life. and every fact in
Richard s turbid career from historic and
biographical sources have been carefully
studied, and as faithfully produced. Mr..
Keno will appear as Richard at Portland
Theatre this evening supported by an
excellent company, coming well endorsed
and with novel stage effects which leave
the old traditions behind. A feature
worthy of commentator, is said to be
the brilliant costumes of this company.
Now and costly, they are said to have
been copied by Mr.. Keene from the illus
trated blanche, and other old time
chroniclers. Monday, Sept. 3D., Mr..
Keene will appear as "Othello''.
,McCaHum's Theatre.
The eighth season of McCallum S thea
tire at Peaks Island closes with the per-
formances of Hazel Kirke this afternoon
and evening. The season has been the
most successful one, both artistically and
financially that Mr.. McCallum has ever
had and it is safe to say that every patron
of his theatre has appreciated his efforts
to present nothing but plays of the high
est order AS for the size of the crowds
suffice it to say that the theatre was by
far too small to hold them many nights
during the season. The performance of
Hazel Kirke by his clever company is
equally as strong as any given this or any
other season and has drawn large crowds
all the week. AS tonight winds up tn 9
season the house will doubtless be packed.
