dence of Mrs. D. T. Neal on Green

fnent took place. Frank Chick of Ban
gdr and MRS. d. T. Neal children of the
deceased. accompanied the remains to
Waterville.
Mrs. Tilton. in days of health, was a
very bright, cheerful, devoted Chris
tan. She bore the responsibilities of
life easily and was always found on the
with hardships. she was always cour-
ageous and brave.
During the last years Of her life, these
qualities have been largely reversed
Her disease was of such a character
as to greatly annoy and trouble her
For a number of years. she has required
constant attendance and even to the
very last days. could not bear to have
out Of her sight the beloved daughter
who had been SO faithful through all
this period.
She took pleasure in looking forward
to the rest which awaited her. Heaven

Photographs Brought to Life.

BY the operation of the Vitascope
photographs are made to do every
thing but talk. Street scenes with
cable cars. elevated trains. pedestrians,
and vehicles moving along with all
their natural speed and action; dane
ing girls who go through all the evolu-
tions and various steps in time to the
orchestra; marches that drill in mar
tial manner to the drum taps of a
shadow drum corps; races with horses
that gallop neck and neck along the
track; ocean waves that roll and gather
their strength and then break and dash
upon the beach; indeed, all the actions
in nature can be preserved and repro
duced by Edison's wonderful Vitascope.
This latest marvel from the Wizard s
labratory at Orange, N. j., has created
a sensation wherever exhibited. and is
acknowledged by all to be the greatest
achievement of the eminent inventor.

ADJUSTMENTS.

Probably the best general perform
ance of good opera that will be given
| this season, will be that presented by
| The Susie Kirwin Opera Company
which will play an engagement in this
city at the Meonian hall, beginning
Thursday. Dec. 10. and continuing fol
three nights and two matinees, with
change of bill at each performance.
The name. Susie kirwin, is as
familiar to lovers of light opera as is
the perfume of the rose. the lady hav-
ing been for years associated with the
Wilbur Opera Company. and the pres
ent tour will be conducted by Mr.. A.
l.. Wilbur.
Miss Kirwin's return to the stage af-
ter an absence of nearly two years.
has been in very elaborate manner,
as the clever lady has abandoned
soubrette roles and come forward in
revivals of much higher class, in
Guiding such operas as Mignon,
Madame Favart, the Queens Lace
Handkerchief and special presenta-
ton of Carmen. 1t is great pleasure
to know that so capable and deserving
an artist has at length been enabled
to take the position to which, by
reason of talent, hard work and per-
severence, she is justly entitled. Each
and every opera will be handsomely
staged and most beautifully costumed
Miss Kirwin's individual gowns are
what the ladies will call "a Dream
rich and picturesque. All details per-,
tanning to the enormous task of stag
ing such productions has received Miss
Kirwin's personal attention and it is
safe to say that with a woman's
artistic tact, only what is refined and
beautiful may be expected.
The principals are strong unsteady,
and there is a numerous chorus of
pretty girls.

City Marshal Morse was called to
Washington street, on Cushnoc Heights.
Saturday evening, to quell family

a trivial matter and at once proceeded
to lick one another. The marshal ar
rived when the battle was warmest
and after little while succeeded in
quieting the participants. Sunday. the
man and woman were living together
as the best Of friends, apparently being
sorry for the trouble they caused the
police the night before.
Patrolman McGuinness had hard
battle, Saturday evening. The patrol
man had some difficulty in placing be-
hind the strong cells Of the police sta
ton two itinerants who were making
themselves very obnoxious to the in
habitants Of the North end by their
loud words and threats of violence. The
men were however taken in by the strong
arm Of the law. They gave their names
as Michael Roche and James Miller,
both hailing from Boston.
Three dodgers were accommodated
with a nights shelter at the station,
Saturday evening. Sunday afternoon,
two Wandering Willies" appeared,
who desired a bed. They told a pitiful
tale of walking 25 miles on that day
and We're after work.
