BEAUTIFUL CARVING.
How Young Man Earned His Way from
Montreal to Portland.

A young man was going about in Port
land yesterday, trying sto sell really
beautiful specimen of skiifui carving
With knife and piece of pine board he
had made big wide-open flower, with
symmetrical petals of thin shapely blades
of wood. The stamens and pistil were
not forgotten, and it was all one piece OF
wood, the whole thing spreading from
handle like that of paint brush.
The young man said that he had been a
cabinet maker in Chicago, but that he
couldn't findsemployment there because
there are more men to do the work than
is necessary. He heard of job in
Montreal, but when be reached there,
found no job. He was out OF money and
wanted to reach Boston. He had been
accustomed to make these beautiful and
wonderful wooden flowers for his own
amusement, having been shown how by
an old man in Chicago.
He began to make and sell them and
thus earned his way to Portland. 1t re-
quires to make one. an hour and a half,
and his price is only 25 cents.

They Were mixed Up.

An attempt was made few days ago
in the PRESS to tell the story of a rob-
bery and at the same time to give per-
sonal regarding the Grand Trunk train
dispatchers, and there was mixing up
when the matter was made up that while
in reality self correcting, was none the
less provoking What the personal was
designed to state was the fact that Mr..
e. A. Cabana of Island Pond, we'll
known operator, had returned home, and
had been succeeded by Mr. Thomas Ma
son, also of Island Pond. Mr.. Cabana
has gone back to his right place on the
staff of the Grand Trunk at Island Pond
where he is one of the most valued ope-
rators ON this division, and Mr.. Mason.
also a well-known operator, will remain
here, taking the place Of Mr.. barrel, and
after his return, of Mr.. Pc mold.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
The Night Clerk.

John j. McNaliy' might Clerk, Z"
which has been drawing very large. audi
ences at the Hollis street Theatre, Bos-
ton, was produced by the same company
at City Hall last evening. 1t is similar
in style to all Mr.. McNally's plays, mere
ly thread in which to string a lot of
variety business There il little real
wit or humor in the piece. 1t is by tricks
and surprises that the fun is created. In
the first act Mr.. Daley is young spend
thrift and his rich uncle turns up and
promises to make him night clerk in the
finest hotel in New York. The promise
is fulfilled in the thirdsact but. mean
time, in the second act, the scene is laid
in police station with Mr.. Daley mas
querading as the captain. There doesn't
seem to be any good excuse for it, but
The whole company is arrested one by
one and brought to the station house,
and the act closes with the inevitable
rehearsal Of something or other that
is made an excuse for the introduction
of the usual songs and dances. The
whole play is little better. than an excuse
for songs and dances if you count in a
miscellaneous assortment of ludicrous,
but by no means connected situations.
Mr.. Daley takes the part of More and,
when on the stage, kept the audience in
a roar of laughter by his manner of get
ting off great lot of nonsense as fast
as his tongue could wag. Jennie Yea
mans didn't have a great deal to do, but
her stage presence was good, her dancing
was pleasing an d her imitation of the
debutante capital. Mr.. John g. Sparks
as Barney Dragon, was capital Irish
man and gave the best and most natural
acting in the piece. The rest of the COM
pany were acceptable, and while no one,
except perhaps the lady who danced jig
so well she was recalled, had any special
prominence, they were very good in the
general ensemble Of songs and dances
in which they participated. There was
a very good. mock minstrel scene in the
third act
The scenery was worthy of much
praise, especially the scene representing
the office Of the Hotel Blase in the third
was one of the best scenic effects ever
given in Portland.
Sawtelle Dramatic Compa ny.
A large audience was present at Port
land Theatre last night to witness Mil
ton Nobles's four act drama "Phoepix"
by the Sawtelle dramatic company, who
began two weeks engagement. Saw
telle's is one of the best repertoire compa-
MES that has ever played to a Portland
audience, and those present last evening
showed their appreciation of the excellent
presentation by frequent bursts of ap-
pIause The company..sshas q number OF
good singers and a number of specia lilies
are introduced, among which might be
mentioned tho singing of Baby June. The
company has its own band and orchestra
and the playing of the latter is feature
of the performance.
This afternoon "Tree as Steel" will be
produced, and this evening Rosedale
will hold the boards.
