ROARED AT BY A WHALE.
Stood On Its Head and Waved Its Tan
in the Clouds.

NO" said Capt. j. A. Crossman of
South Portland last evening, I'VE didn't
encounter the sea serpent, but we mad
strange experience with whale, and
don't believe anybody ever had the like
before. I've been at sea, man and boy,
since l was . years old, and l never saw
the like of the whale we encountered. l
never saw whale before that didn't
blow. but the one we met didn't, but II
did give roar that was awful.
The schooner was about ten miles OIL
Wood Island and making good headway
under full sail, the mate, Merrill Gross
man, at the wheel, when there was sud
den commotion ahead, and then great
head shot up into the air and was on
level with the deck.
One of the crew first sighted the strange
creature and called Captain Crossman,
and in moment all on board but the
man at the wheel were looking at the
strange sight. They saw before them an
enormous head, one mass of great bunch
es. through which the wicked looking
eyes of the creature cleaned. Ihey eX.
pected the whale, if such, would blow"
but it did not then or after. Once Il mar
row thread of what looked like steam shot
up, but not drop of water was sent into
the air. AS they looked at the creature 1t
roared savagely, and then drew close up
to the side of the schooner, giving them
ample time to observe the head, and all
agree that it was very broad; that 1t Ia
pered almost to Il point and that 1t was
not very thick through the thickest part.
The creature was about 20 to 81 feet IN
length. and had very broad tail, very
Jiffnrnnt from that of an ordinary whale.
In fact, at the time there were three or
four whales in sight, and they had no diff
Guilty in noting the difference between
them and the stranger.
The great creature went down head
first. and then made series of attempts
to strike the side of the schooner with its
tail. 1t did not succeed, and swan
around them. roaring loudly in evident
anger. Then it went down and under
the schooner.
Captain Crossman, who had watched
for this movement. gave orders to be
ready to lower the boat fearing that the
whale might come up under them and
break them in two. 1t was very fortu-
nate that they were not forced to lower
their boat, as it proved later to be leak
ing, and would not have carried half their
number safely to land.
For more than an hour the whale con-
tinued his remarkable acrobatic perform
ance, standing on his head with his tail
waving in the air most of the time. 1t
seemed bent on hitting the schooner and
it took the best of good Seamanship to
prevent an encounter.
At last the whale seemed to get tired
of what had been fun at first, and it
headed for the ortland

CHINESE MUSIC IN COURT.
An Attempt to Decide Whether it Hath
Charms or Hathn't.

The case brought by ]. c. Cluney and
others asking for an injunction forbid
ding the direction of the new Chinese
theater came on yesterday before Judge
Cooper, l.. A. Thurston for the plain
tiffs and A. s. Hartwell for the defend
ants. The grounds on which the injunc-
ton was asked were that all Chinese
performances necessarily include an in
Strumental performance, and that the
orcheStra-if the theater was erected
would give such dismal, hideous and I'M
earthly music that it would constitute n
nuisance. and make life in the neighbor-
hood not worth living.
After taking the evidence of j. l..
Kaulukou, who testified to the horrid
music of the old theater. Mr.. Thurston,
who had summoned into court the en-
tire Chinese band with their Instruments
offered performance" in evidence. He
proved by one of the actors that the
music was m integral part of all Chinese
plays, and claimed that the court fully
| appreciate the character of the music
only by hearing it.
Mr. Hartwell opposed its introduction
as being contrary to the rules of evidence
and utterly irregular. He asked if the
case went up on appeal how could the
court could hear it.
Mr.. Thurston replied that it could be
preserved in the photograph. if there
was one, and. beside. he claimed that the
music was not for the supreme court,
| but for Judge Cooper to hear in order
to settle the question of fact.
After due consideration Judge Cooper
admitted the performance in evidence.
The instruments We're tuned, and at the
word of command the five gongs, two
| cymbals, big bass drum and several other
| effective but indeScribable instruments
went off. Such music had never before
| been heard in the court room. 1t rat

| Numbered around the room and tried to

the supreme court. sitting in another
room, promptly adjourned and hurried

The meeting Of the board of health in

Marsdcn. in the agricultural department
below, became wild. it is said. and tried

the court room. were disturbed. and pre-
scented the CHASTITY spectacle of lifting up
their hands and closing their ears.
After five minutes the court ordered
the noise to abate and the trial pro-
ceeded.

ENGLISH GIRLS IN PARIS.
Some of Them Not Only Not Smart but

fresh-faced maidens attired in wooden
skirts cambria shirts, leather belted ana
the new fashioned, hideously shaped
sailor hats, the latter placed on the neau
with that peculiar insouclance OF angie
or becomingness so striking in the Anglo
Saxon race, and accompanied by young
men in touring suits. Verify, let me
ask you. would those girls have darea
appear in their own opera house IN sucn

contempt for the foreigner that is sup

of white chiffon, deep berthe of antique
lace falling from the square decolletagee

twisted bows of Parma mauve and violet

were riviere of diamonds round her
neck; while just above the forehead, IN
Henry ii style, scintillated one pear
shaped diamond of first water, cleverly
and invisibly supported by n fine gold
wire run through the pretty wavy hair,
dressed very simply at the back IN a
Grecian knot with curled ends.

HIS 100000 BANK ACCOUNT.

he gave it to us that he was in hurry
TO get it fixed satisfactorily because he
was about TO go to Cuba.
"As soon as l was able to get away l
sailed for Havana. l stayed III the ISL

bank, the thought naturally flashed
through his mind that ! had skipped

of his 100000.
"Of course, as soon as he saw me
laugh and his excitement had cooled
down little, he began to see the fun of
the thing. and that he and the bank were
safe after all. We found out that we

OUR INDIAN SUMNER.
It is Not Due Until the Bright Days of
Mid-Noyember.

Many persons. if they are asked
about it, would say without hesitation
that the last days of October are the
real Indian summer. The term is vague
" employed, and at one time or another
has been stretched to include almost all
the attractive weather with which we
are blessed between the close of August
and the list of December. Thanks to
the almanac, we have got the idea very
thoroughly into our heads that summer
ends on the 31st of August, and when we
find the skies still warm and grateful
after that date, and the woods and helds
still calling us with persuasive voices, we
are little perpleXed as to what we ought
to think about it. and whether it is really
autumn or summer come again. mus
we fall back upon the familiar term, I'm
dian summer" which seems a sufficiently
appropriate compromise. although there
is no special justification for our selec-
tion of this uncertain phraSeOlogy.
If would be much more satisfactory II
we should disabuse ourselves at once or
the notion that summer proper ends with
the month of August There is nothing
in the atmosphere or in the appearance
of the natural world to indicate any radl-
cal change in the season at or about tnat
date. and the increasing custom OF length
ening the vacation outing at the seasnore
or i'm the mountains is proof sufficient
that we are gradually coming to appre-
ciate the fact that summer really extends
through September, to say the least. Let
us say, for example, that summer ends
only when the frosts of October nave
nut a change on the face of things, ana
this will not only be nearer the truth
than the esta blished conception OF inc
season. but will enable us also to get
fairer idea of when Indian summer makes
IFS oppearance. The photographer, Wor-
cester, quotes DR.. Freeman as saying
that the term Indian summer is useu III
North America to define season OF
nleasant weather in the late autumn, ana
This notion of its date is brought out III
various WAYS by most of the poets ana
versi6ers who have discoursed upon the
subject. .,,o
Here is one rhymer, for instance, WIG
tells us that Indian summer comes III
'the autumn's dotage, mid-Noyemner,
when skies seductive woo the carth,
