MUSIC AND DRAMA.

VIM. Calder's great spectacular melo
drama "Saved from the Sea- that had
such remarkable run on the other side
of the water, and has been produced to
great houses in Boston and Now York,
was presented at Portland theatre last
night.
The story of the play was printed in
yesterdays edition and it included
enough dramatic Incidents to satisfy
the greatest melodramatio cormorant
that patronjzes the play houses.
The great scene Of the play is sup
posed to be the scaffold and trap, where
the innocent hero, Dan, after being
extreme penalty of the law. since the
trap fails to work, and a respite is b
tanned. But while Dan ia shown in the
condemned cell and on the execution,
the scaffoId and trap are not exhibited
but the incidents are narrated in the
prison yard concluding with the prison
er staggering into the prison yard, pale
and trembling. The other leading
scenes, the deck of the Ocean Waif, the
open sea after the explosion and the de-
struotion of the bridge, are all good
and were greeted with much enthusiasm.
The company is very good one. Mr..
Andrew Rorson plays the hero with
much dash and energy. and was strongly
effective in the powerful scenes, and
not lacking in pathos in the more emo
tional ones. Miss Lander is very strong
as Nancy. She is quiet and natural,
giving great force thereby to the inten-
ser scenes in which she Is engaged, and
also, like Mr.. Robson, has a good deal
of magnetic in her composition, especial

THE POLICE COURT.
Window Breakers Punished-Shall
= Hebrews Keep Open Shop ON sunday
Thub Daher's Case-Other Tribula-
tions.

Judge Robinson's court held an inter-
esting session Monday morning. The
community seemed in the preceding days
to have been going to the dogs In mild
sort of way; and its troubles came up in
the court room for regulation.
Small boys who have been too prodigal
with pebbles attracted attention first.
Harold Aubens, charged with throwing
stones in the street, was the first of these
offenders. Mrs. Ag mes Moran told how
he had broken window of her house,
and how she had previously suffered from
stones thrown by the Aubens boy and
others. Mr.. E. P. Chase, who owns
several houses in the regions fraquentsd
by the tone-throwiHg boys, also said
that he could stand 1t no longer, and
that an example must be made. Judge
Robinson. after hearing the testimony
gave the Aubsns boy salutary lecture,
warning him and all other stone throw
ers that they must reform. Then he
fined the boy S. and costs.
Another small boy, James Thorn was
charged with malicious mischief in hav-
ing thrown stone through window.
Mary Callahan, pretty young miss Of
thirteen, testified that she saw Thorn
throw the stone. He threw 1t at boy
named Atkins; and the stone missing
house where she lived. Little Thomas
Atkins, aged 8, at whom the stone was
thrown, corroborated this testimony. It
being evident that the Thorn boy, who
was charged with malicious mischief in
breaking the window, had not intend ed
to break Ii when no threw the stone, a
mol pros had to be entered and the boy
was discharged.
The most interest was ocnasioned by
the cases against Marks Berman and
Benjamin Press, two Hebrews, who were
charged with keeping open shop on the
Lords Day. Press testified that he Kept
Saturday as Sunday and as he could
not keep closed two days, he did bust

| ment. He had understood that it would
be all right If he kept one day of the
week as day of rest; and he wished to
test the case. So Judge Robinson con,
tinued the case until Wednes lay.
| Another case that had to be continued
until Wednesday was that against Thub,
Daher, an Oriental who cannot speak
English. Catherine Homdony, who 40
cording to the testimony Of lEliat
Kahony, sent 800 into the East to brine
Thub to this country, and afterward.
gave him $50 to set him up in business
complained that Thub struck her, wher
she asked him to repay the money
Kahony said Thub merely pushed her
Thub being unable to speak for himself
the case was continued until Wed nesday.
Other cases disposed of were as follows
Sarah Anderson, into xioa ton, 80 days
in CITY house of correction.
Martin Gorham, intoxication, SO and
costs, suspended.
VIM. H. Smith, intoxication, 80 days
in county Jail.
