+" Shore Acres"

Is delightful play which depicts rural
life as it is supposed to exist on the coast
OF Maine. Its realism is intense and con-
sequently a successful presentation de-
ponds largely on the merits of the COM
pany and as whole the company is COM
posed of trained actors, who enter into the
spirit of the production with the zest that
inspires the auditors throughout with the
naturalness Of the portrayal.
George w. Wilson as Nathaniel Berry
is the centre Of attraction and interest, and
is consummate artist; his fine concep-
ton of the character is equalled by the
skill of his execution. The weather beaten
veteran stands out in all bis uncouthness,
rustic mannerisms and idiosyncrasies, withal
an apostle Of selfabnegation and a grand
hero.
Ed j. Connolly as Joel Gates is also a
great success. His droll sayings and comic
crowings and gymnastic feats were much
enjoyed.
'The Liddy Ann in sou'-easter" was a
highly artistic bit of scenery.
This company which showed in the opera
house on Thursday evening drew the
largest house SO tar this season and every
body was pleased. Much had been said
about the play and expectation ran high,
II ~
regarding both the merits of the play and
the company. In the opinion of the writer
there have come to Bellows Falls in the last
six or - months two or three shows that
as whole are at least the equal of the per-
Torrance Thursday evening. As picture
of New England country play we do not
consider ashore Acres" the equal Of the
"Old Homestead"

Who Is " Ned Murphy 2"

Many people have heard of Francis
Murphy, who was lifted out of the degra-
dation and desolation of drunkard's life,
and became, perhaps, the most notable
temperance advocate of this generation,
and the world-renowned blue-rbbon
Thomas Edward Murphy, the second
son of Francis Murphy, has been known
until lately as the son of his father, but
there are many people that now know
Francis Murphy as the father of his son
Born in New York city in the year 1858.
and therefore now SO years old, Ned" as
he is Familiarity called, experienced in bis
early years the bitterness OF the drink
curse in his own family. His mother only
lived to see the reformation Of her hus-
band, and the elder boys had to 90 out
into the world alone to fight the battle OF
life.
At the age of II Med" entered the
employment of doctor in Portland, and
with that and other employment which he
picked up sometimes earned as much as
500 week. At the age of IA he joined
his brother, Will, and went off to learn
the granite-cutting trade, and within a
year they had both obtained employment
in government granite yards, earning as
much as $3.50 day. So much money
did them harm, and they were with . the
boys" most of the time. This did not help
their work, and as Ned humorously puts
it, the government decided to dispense
with our services finally, and very much
Inundated, we two entered into private
life"
One morning he overheard his father
say to his brother, "Jack, l wish you
would ask Ned to sign the pledge" And
that fathers waiting had its reward, and
:" the boys" got "Ned" no more. From
this time dates his career on the platform.
Gradually he was drawn into the work,
until he had to prepare lecture or speech.
Carefully worded it was and an elaborate
argument for temperance. Yes, it took,
and he had to go here and there delivering
this same. He accompanied his father to
England in 1884, and the story of his tour
tells how 'Ned" Murphy became an ora
tor.
The Ned" Murphy of to-day is much
the same as in 1881, only more developed.
Murphy's success has come through his
romantic marriage in 1885 to Miss Marga-
ret +. Vandergrift, daughter of Capt.
Vandergrift of the United Pipe Lines com
pany, and president of the Keystone bank
OF Pittsburg. The training of home OF
wealth and refinement did not unfit Mrs.
Murphy for the a-duous lite which was to
be her lot. For she follows her husband
wherever he goes, sits on the platform, and
aids him in her own charming and unas-
Stunning way, bearing with beautiful lack
of self-consciousness, for the sake of the
cause, the trying publicity and the con-
tinuous strain of platform life. The
same strong sympathy and tenderness
towards the fallen that moves Mrs. Muir
ply to take the position she does, gives to
Mr.. Murphy his greatest power. with
malice toward none, with charity for all. y
is the Murphy motto. 1.-The policeman's
club fails, Legislation fails, denunciation
fails, but love never fails And so :. Ned,
Murphy believes.
Mr.. Murphy speaks in Union hall next
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Fri
day evenings.

works will have quite a job on hand a
week from tomorrow. Monday, April 6, is the
day set for the receiving and opening of the
bid: for sweeping all the asphalt streets in
tho city, of which there are more than eight

teen contracts, of which twelve are sweep
ing the streets and one contract for hauling
away all the dirt For four days, the speed
fcations covering the thirteen contracts have
been open to public inspection in the board Of

week and part of Monday, April g. During
the past four days the specifications for each
contract have been studied by hundreds Of
laborers. The result is that blank forms Of
bids have already been called for in large
numbers. Up to date the average number
of forms called for is about twenty-five on
each contract, which means 325 bids already.
AS the Iaborers and contractors have six days
more in which to examine the specifications
the board OF public works expects to receive
about 700 bids in all. While the great ma
jority of the bidders are day laborers there
are some contractors among them, one OF

AFTER THE MARKET.
City Officials Are Routed From Bed
Before Dawn.

Before Dawn.
AT . O'Clock yesterday morning messenger
rang Mayor Smiths door bell The mayor
rolled reluctantly out of his bed, and, opening
the window, asked the gentleman who pressed
the button, what he wanted. The gentleman
informed his honor that Yerxa Bros. wanted
to move into the old market house for a tenn
porary period The mayor replied that he had
no more to do with the market house than
any other citizen. The council committees on
public buildings and markets had charge of
the matter. The messenger departed.
By dint of indefatigable industry interested
parties succeeded in bringing about meeting
of the assembly and aldermanic committees
on public buildings at the noon hour. There
were present from the assembly Messrs
Johnson and Parker, and from the board of
aldermen. Aid. Ulmer and Markham. As
semblyman Strouse and Aid Lndahl could
not be found in time.
After a brief discussion the joint commit
tee, by virtue of power conferred upon 1t by
ordinance, adopted two resolutions, which
were addressed to the market master. They
are as follows
Resolved, That the market master be, and
is hereby authorized to make such arrange
ments in his judgment shall seem just and
by them of all available unoccupied space In
the market house for such period as may be
desired by them, not exceeding three months
and the market master is further directed to
render said YerXa Bros. assistance which he
may be able to render by putting the build
Ing In order for their use.
Resolved That the market master call upon
all tenants occupying space in the market
house, who are In arrears In payment OF
rents due to the city, and in all cases where
said rentals are not paid at once to report
the names Of tenants who are so in arrears
to this committee, together with statement
OF the amounts due from each, to the end
that said tenants, so in arrears. shall be re-
qufred to Immediately vacate the space oc-
cupied by them.
The resolution does not give the market
master any additional power discretion. 1t
simply authorizes him to rent eut unoccupied
space and to report the names of tenants in
arrears for rent. t+..+-.. .-
